Yunheng was fostered in a remote mountain village since he was a child. The villagers regarded him as an ominous person. For eighteen years of loneliness, the only companions were the ruined stele beside the ancient well and whispers in the middle of the night. One night, a person disappeared in the village for no apparent reason. What followed was a strange talisman and a puzzle that no one could solve - why is there a fairy bone hidden in Yun Heng's body, but he is still unable to draw Qi to practice? In the process of tracing the mystery of the disappearance, Yunheng discovered that the history of the village and his own life experience were intertwined with a secret inheritance. The old cases of the immortal sect, the fragments of forbidden arts, and the distinction between good and evil in the eyes of the people were all peeled off layer by layer. Every step of reasoning brings him closer to the truth, but it also makes him increasingly doubtful: Is what he wants to inherit a path to immortality, or is it a carefully arranged sacrifice? The path to immortality is to use mystery as the lock and reasoning as the key. Yunheng must solve the mystery of himself and choose between faith and betrayal. And in the end, can he carry that legacy, or is he just a chess piece pushed by the hands on the chessboard?
