Gesang Meiduo ventures deep into Tibet in search of her mother and joins forces with Jinmei Jiacuo, a Tibetan guardian known as the “Dharma Protector of Lhasa.” When multinational capital and a mysterious organization invade the snowy mountains to seize the “Primordial Power” capable of rewriting the rules of the world, they discover that her mother’s disappearance, her sister’s murder, and the ecological upheaval are all tied to an ancient technological hub buried beneath Mount Kailash: the “Butter Lamp Beacon.”
Seven secret treasures emerge one after another. The bronze prayer wheel pricks the greedy, while the meteoric iron demon-subduing vajra turns against its wielders. With support from the nation, they decode star maps in thangka paintings through the wisdom of Tibetans and Han Chinese, and stand against cultural plunder. When the Primordial Power finally awakens, it answers not to hegemony or theocracy, but to the hearts of those who protect: deserts turn green again, and glaciers form anew. When their mission ends, they drive toward distant mountains and rivers, becoming witnesses who travel along the veins of the earth.
