In the depths of the sea of stars, there are nine islands floating. They are like stairs connecting the sky and the earth, and they are also like wreckage torn apart by some powerful force. Spiritual energy is the beating pulse of this world. It surges like a rushing river on the upper islands, giving birth to the spiritual race that controls the mysterious power; on the lower islands, it is as thin as a trickle. Human beings struggling to survive can only rely on contracts with otherworldly beings to barely compete with it.
An ordinary boy accidentally meets an equally ordinary spirit. Their fates, like being pulled by invisible threads, begin to intertwine in this turbulent world. The young man clenches the weapon in his hand and the spirit spreads its wings behind him. How will they find that faint ray of light in this desperate gap?
At the same time, a girl with a mystery appears in an unusual manner. She seems to be able to listen to the heartbeat of the world. Her existence seems to hide a secret that subverts everything.
When the power that has been dormant for thousands of years begins to revive, and when the laws of the world begin to collapse, Jiucheng Island faces an unprecedented crisis. The flames of war are about to devour everything, conspiracy and betrayal spread like cancer, and hope and despair collide fiercely in the hearts of every living being. Can the boy, the spirit, and the girl, can they find their own place in this catastrophe that is related to the survival of the world, and uncover the truth buried in the long river of time?
