Tomb Keeper: My Yin-Yang Eyes See into the Underworld

On the night of my thirteenth birthday, I opened my Yin-Yang Eyes for the first time at the Mangshan Cemetery.

Ghosts and spirits from every direction surged toward me, but Grandpa calmly said, “Don’t be scared. They’re all old neighbors.”

My name is Chen Hanye, the thirteenth-generation guardian of the Mangshan tombs. For generations, the Chen family has guarded Mangshan’s 108 ancient tombs, as well as a shocking secret: beneath Mangshan lies the Ghost Gate, the passage connecting the worlds of the living and the dead.

From that day on, my life changed completely.

A water ghost from the Yellow River demanding lives, a thousand-year-old zombie breaking free from its grave, a Pen Fairy game summoning wronged spirits from the Republic of China... Those were only the beginning.

When the heirs of the Southern Mao and Northern Ma schools gathered in Luoyang, when the mysterious Yin-Yang Cult bared its fangs, and when the secret of the First Emperor’s underground palace was revealed, I finally understood: the plans laid two thousand years ago had all been waiting for this day.

The gate to the Demon Realm is about to open, and ancient evil gods are stirring.

And I, an ordinary student who still has to deal with the high school entrance exam and college entrance exam, have become the key to this apocalyptic catastrophe.

Should I choose a peaceful life, or shoulder the responsibility of protecting all living beings?

Standing once more atop Mangshan and looking down at the countless lights below, I finally understood Grandpa’s words:

“A tomb guardian doesn’t guard the dead. He protects the living and their peace.”

This is the story of a boy who sees every ghost and demon in the world through his Yin-Yang Eyes, and ultimately grows into a guardian.
