"Archaeology is the lamp that illuminates history, and tomb robbing is the knife that tears apart the truth."
Young archaeologist Lin Jiuchuan has studied antique restoration with his grandfather Lin Xuansheng since he was a child. However, during a move of his old house, he accidentally discovered the secret that his grandfather had hidden for half his life - a notebook full of secret codes for tomb robbing, and a bronze compass engraved with the "Edict to Touch Gold". In order to trace the truth behind his parents' disappearance, he was forced to embark on a dangerous road that spanned archeology and tomb robbing.
The seven-star hanging coffin in the thousand-year-old emperor's mausoleum, the Nine Nether Yellow Spring under the sunken ship in the South China Sea, the ghost-faced altar in the snow-capped mountains and glaciers... As the mysterious and forbidden places are uncovered, a mysterious organization called "Ksitigarbha Sect" gradually emerges, and Grandpa's last words, "Don't believe in the living," actually become the beginning of all mysteries.
