Synopsis

He was once an undertaker, skilled at preparing the dead, reading feng shui, and chanting rebirth mantras.

After an accident, his soul transmigrates into a black crow on a mass grave.

With no spiritual roots or human form, he scrapes by pecking at corpses.

Then one day...

As he pecks at a fresh corpse, white crystals burst open, awakening the Burial Spirit Art!

He absorbs lingering obsessions, condenses them into spirit bones, and opens his Yin-Yang Eyes...

Beneath the rotting corpses and barren earth lies another world, woven from restless souls and Yin energy.

Paper money spontaneously burns into "eyes," and someone watches from the shadows. Shards of runes lie scattered about, concealing clues to a second spirit bone.

It is neither alive nor dead.

It is a guardian of the dead, a gatherer of bones, the only one who can hear the whispers of departed souls: the Spirit-Watching Crow.

And in the depths of the mass grave, a forgotten history of burial rites, buried for a thousand years, is slowly coming to light.
