In 2032, the "Star Crystals," carrying the dawn of human civilization, appeared, only to drag the world into an unprecedented abyss. Nations set off a bloody war that swept across the globe to seize these forbidden stones. The land was scorched, all life wiped out, and billions of ordinary people wailed amid warfare and displacement. Meanwhile, the powerful built golden palaces atop piles of corpses, trampling at will on the dignity of human life.

In this age soaked in blood and tears, steeped in boundless sorrow, the "Wandering Doctors" emerged. They joined forces with resistance movements around the world to launch desperate counterattacks against the claws of invasion and the iron hooves of oppression. Using their lives as kindling, they swore to burn away every evil in the world and ignite a glimmer of a new order amid the ruins.

Li Yuesheng, leader of the Tianfang, fought bloodily during a devastating surprise attack until his strength was spent. Yet his spirit did not perish. It crossed a century and awoke in a future where civilization had withered. Humanity's glory had long since faded, leaving only the "Sea City," clinging to survival like an isolated island. A false sky screen split the heavens: the powerful in the Upper City were lost in illusory splendor, while the people of the Lower City struggled on the brink of death in a mire of hunger and despair.

Though the Wandering Doctors had suffered repeated blows, their spark had not gone out. Deep in the Sea City's underground lifeblood, they still burned tenaciously, feeding the flames with their blood. Li Yuesheng, a spirit burdened by a century of blood debts and searing pain, had returned from hell. Faced with this unending resistance, carried on for a hundred years, what would he choose? Could this long-delayed spirit of vengeance tear apart the false heavens and bring ultimate salvation to this dark age?
