Shen Canglan, a descendant of the tomb keeper, unearthed hundreds of skull flutes from an ancient tomb in Wushan. The flute sounded, and three thousand Yin soldiers broke through the ground. He was shocked to realize that the Yin soldiers were the remnant souls of his seven previous lives - this flute was the "reincarnation calibrator" of the Queen Mother of the West. He lost an emotion every time he played it, killing his own blood to dissolve his memory, but accelerated his transformation into a corpse.
The remnant soul of the Wushan goddess Ah Ruan appears and threatens her with a marriage contract and a curse, revealing that the Yin soldiers are his close relatives and enemies who have been sacrificed for generations. In order to break the seven-life love catastrophe, Shen Canglan took a blood-rusted compass and a human-skin drum to the Bronze Sacred Tree, the Yin Ruins, and the ruins of the Queen Mother of the West. In the process of stripping away his emotions and liquidating his sins, he finally burned the Sacred Tree with soul fire to help Ah Ruan escape and find the true meaning of reincarnation.
