Zheng Ben is a young Taoist priest in Qingxuan Temple. He accidentally discovers the mysterious compass and half of the "Taixu Sutra" left by his master. Later, he encounters strange phenomena such as the chime of the ancient bell in the temple and the tears of the statue of the Patriarch, which imply that an unusual event is about to happen.
He went down the mountain to investigate the disappearance of a female college student and found traces of ancient magic on the victim. During the tracking process, he was attacked by a mysterious man in black and was rescued by Su Yuqing, a cultural relic expert.
Zheng Ben and Su Yuqing formed a temporary partner and went to the ancient tomb to investigate. They found that the disappearance was related to the "Netherworld Sect", a cult that was suppressed a hundred years ago. They also discovered that the clues left by their master pointed to a deeper conspiracy.
During the investigation, it was gradually discovered that he had an extraordinary life experience, with powerful power sealed in his body, and the disappearance of the master was related to a battle between good and evil that spanned a thousand years.
As the investigation deepened, Zheng Ben and Su Yuqing discovered that the Netherworld Sect was looking for the ancient magic weapon "Taixu Seal" and was preparing to hold a ceremony to awaken the sleeping evil god on the night of the total lunar eclipse.
