In the ninth year of Chongzhen, Yinghuo guarded his heart, and the blood moon shone on Jinling.
Deep in the Dragon Veins of the Ming Dynasty, a seal that has spanned six hundred years is loosening.
Zhang Jingyun, a Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain, went south according to the order, but encountered a "sore" that was not of this world in the Xiaoling Underground Palace——
It swallows up laws, distorts the stars, and uses human hearts as its breeding ground. It was called the "carbuncle of the stars" by the ancients.
In order to prevent the catastrophe, Zhang Jingyun, his senior brother Zhang Jingyan, Daolu Secretary Zhou Shihong, Jinyiwei Qin Zheng and others used their souls as fuel and laws as an array to activate the "Return to Ruins" array left by Liu Bowen, hoping to banish the Star Carbuncle into nothingness.
However, the price of the seal is that there are no bones left and the consciousness will be forever silenced.
Two hundred and fifty-four years later, at the "Dirac Sea" Research Institute in the future world, researcher Lin Wei salvaged a fragment of ancient consciousness from the quantum ruins——
Zhang Jingyun woke up again.
The Star Carbuncle is not extinct, it is just lurking at the bottom of civilization, waiting for the next "Yinghuo Shouxin".
In order to completely end the disaster, Zhang Jingyun used the "civilized antibody" as a carrier to return to Chongzhen for ten years across time and space, and resonated with the unfinished legal tablet formation, the faith of the people, and the emperor's blood edict, igniting the last "fire of order."
"Some wars have no winners, only guardians who have not been forgotten."
When the stars burn out, the imperial power collapses, and the future sinks into eternal silence,
There is still a wordless stone tablet standing by the Xuanwu Lake.
In every drop of rain, those who died for "order" are reflected.
The final chapter of the three volumes of "Ming Ruins" describes the last breath of a civilization on the edge of chaos.
