Main characters: Shen Xinghe, a descendant of the Night Watchers with a forbidden bloodline; Nan Zhu, an apprentice at an apothecary who can speak with the dead; Xie Yanci, the Tianji Pavilion's young master, living a double life; Jiang Wujiao, a mysterious swordsmith.
Three hundred years into the Dayin dynasty, the dark moon eclipses the sky, and the rift known as Guixu, dormant for a thousand years, slowly awakens. Monsters and spirits erased from the history books return to the human world, devouring humanity's last remaining lands. Shen Xinghe, born with the bloodline of the Night Watchers but cast out by his family, is investigating the truth behind his older brother's disappearance when he unexpectedly forms a mysterious team with Nan Zhu, who can see the souls of the dead; Xie Yanci, who controls the Tianji Pavilion; and Jiang Wujiao, who forges weapons capable of slaying gods. They travel between the bustling capital and eerie spirit realms, uncovering a shocking secret hidden behind the dynasty: the so-called golden age is merely a cage built from countless lives, and beneath Guixu sleeps an ancient being powerful enough to overturn heaven and earth.
