The five sects of Xuanji Continent stand side by side, but a "Blood River Rebellion" that has been in the dust for ten years has laid huge hidden dangers.
Xie Yunzhou, the chief disciple of Qingluan Pavilion, is as gentle as jade. Half a piece of broken jade in his waist hides the truth about the annihilation of his family. The four words "Don't believe in death" written by his mother before her death have become his obsession across life and death. Shen Yanbing, the young master of Xuanbing Palace, is as cold as a cold pool. The ancient beast Taotie sealed in his body roars every night, and the mysterious "Qingluan Cries Blood" birthmark on the back of his neck hints at his inextricable connection with the Xie family.
When the Jiuxiao Ring, the most precious treasure of Qingluan Pavilion, broke for no reason, a strange phoenix pattern appeared in the cold pool of Xuanbing Palace. Two swords that were supposed to have different paths were forced to fight in the fog. The Netherworld Sect's soul-inducing banner reappears, the sound of the bell of the afterlife captivates the soul, and the "Jade Scale Shift" prophecy deduced on the Tianji Palace Star Luo chessboard pushes the two of them towards the center of the storm——
It turns out that what the five great families guard is not the treasure, but the five star cores that seal the ancient demonic realm; it turns out that the Taotie in Shen Yanbing's body is the seal that Xie Yunzhou's mother protected with her life; it turns out that the so-called good and evil are just black and white in the writings of those in power.
When broken jade is put together, the sound of the piano can soothe the soul, and the ice can burn the sky. From the cold pool in the north to the Red Flame Valley, from suspicion and temptation to life and death, in the layers of reversal of conspiracies, they tore off the mask of righteousness and hypocrisy, and faced the curse in their blood.
When the leader of the Netherworld rings the death bell, and when the cracks in the Demonic Realm open in the sky, the two young men who are burdened with fate will finally understand: the so-called fate is never destiny, but a choice - to be the enemy of the world, or to rebuild this broken jade scale with you side by side?
