A wedding sedan carries not a good match, but a living coffin. Yu Qianye was forced to marry as a substitute, and the moment he stepped into Shenhui Pavilion, he became the "eye of the formation" selected by the Yin Tower. Mucus dripped from the bloody wooden beams, the paper figure's face resembled that of an old friend, and the whispering echo called her name from the bottom of the well... This is the chessboard where Gongsun Mo "raises evil and resists the coffin demon", and it is also the cage where the fate of the three clans is intertwined.
Xie Tingyun, a descendant of the executioner, with his cursed bloodline and obsession to find his father, met her on a dead end road where corpses spread. Behind the gentleness and elegance of Shen Yuheng, a member of the Shouling clan, there are bottomless calculations and struggles. As for Achun, who has turned into a living puppet, every guidance from his remnant soul involves a past soaked in blood.
Traveling through seven treacherous secret coffins and collecting copper hexagram pieces that hid mysteries, the blood-wood pupil of Yu Qianye's left eye gradually glimpsed the truth: the so-called salvation is a scam that has lasted for hundreds of years. The Shouling Clan controls people with fungi, the Executioners offer sacrifices and curses, and the Burial Clan blood sacrifices shackles—the tragic songs of the three tribes all originate from the alien coffin demon buried deep in the ground, eager to break out of the coffin.
When the mother coffin whispers in the City of Ten Thousand Coffins, when trust breaks down in betrayal, Yu Qianye must take Xie Tingyun and use the heart as the key to complete the final breakthrough under the noose of fate. However, the temporary seal is not the end. The cries of children from the corner of the city and the gray mist overflowing from the cracks in the coffin silently declare:
The coffin demon will return within three years. In the next game, the whole world will be at stake.
The Coffin Demon is not dead, just sleeping. There are still three coffins that have not been sealed, and the door to the other world has quietly cracked in the darkness.
