A blood-red moon hangs overhead, and the whole world has fallen into a bizarre inferno. The rules have warped, grotesque horrors are everywhere, and humanity struggles to survive in the cracks.
Wang Xuanyan is an ordinary office worker who spends his days working overtime. But thanks to an ancestral Panlong jade pendant, he has gained the ability to see through and decipher the rules governing the bizarre. While others flee in panic, he heads in the opposite direction, hunting the horrors and fighting one set of rules with another!
From the “Silent Guest” to the “Invitation in Red,” he walks the edge of death, using his wits and the pendant’s power to break one deadly rule after another. He meets Cang Nanyang, who seems scatterbrained but is deeply loyal to his friends, and searches for companions and hope amid the ruins of despair. Beneath the community center, he also discovers an ancient sealing array connected to the pendant, uncovering the first glimpse of his ancestors’ plans and his mission as the “key.”
Yet as the throbbing “Flesh Furnace” at the city’s heart reveals its terrifying power to devour all things, and incomprehensible whispers from an indescribable entity sound in his ears, Wang Xuanyan gradually realizes that the bizarre calamity sweeping the globe conceals a vast conspiracy spanning time and space.
As he hunts the horrors, is he himself being “hunted” by something even more terrifying?
Is the ancestral jade pendant the key to saving the world, or the source of its calamities?
In this apocalypse of shattered rules and watching evil gods, Wang Xuanyan embarks on a journey to fight the horrors before him, seek out ancient truths, and confront the shadows of history. He vows to become the strongest “Ghost Slayer” in this bizarre and chaotic age!
