Shen Qingci's handyman career ended with that golden light that appeared out of thin air. When his fingertips touched the hot ancient jade, he and his roommate Lu Jingxian heard the call from the secret realm at the same time. At that time, one of them was an abandoned son of the sect with mixed spiritual roots, and the other was a sickly genius who was said to be nearing the end of his life. No one expected that this call would change the fate of the two of them.
The characters on the ancient jade point to the opportunity hidden in the forbidden area of the East Wasteland to replenish spiritual roots and change one's destiny against the will of heaven. The road to the secret realm is already covered with bones. Shen Qingci's unexpectedly awakened "barrier-breaking spiritual eye" can see through illusion traps, while the ancient sword box hidden by Lu Jingxian can split the barriers of monsters. The two of them attack and defend, kill three demon foxes in the Soul-devouring Mist Forest, and win the key to the secret realm in the Falling Star Canyon.
However, the closer you get to the core, the more terrifying the crisis becomes: the blood vine that swallows spiritual power, the mirror lake that reflects your inner demons, and the traitors of the sect who are secretly watching. When Lu Jingxian's sword box shattered due to overdraft of spiritual power, and Shen Qingci's spiritual eye suddenly suffered a backlash, they discovered the secret of the ancient jade - the secret realm was not a place of chance at all, but a sealed cage of ancient spiritual roots!
Should he just retreat and become a laughing stock, or should he risk his life to solve the ultimate mystery? The two figures walked into the core of the secret realm together, and the ancient jade shone again. This time, it reflected the intertwined fate and vitality of the two people.
