Xiang Dong, a modern man, accidentally traveled to the crisis-ridden Xixia and became the general Wei Mingdong. He discovered that the Buddha Eye Sect was brewing a shocking conspiracy to kill the king and usurp the country during the heaven-sacrifice ceremony. In order to protect himself, and because his conscience is still intact, he is forced to deal with the treacherous court and bloody battlefield.
From the exploration of the Helan Mountain Underground Palace to the life and death disaster at the Yellow River Ferry; from the mystery of the red mole of the palace female official to the corrupt black chain of weapons and food. Xiang Dong relies on modern thinking and historical insight to repeatedly outsmart the game in desperate situations and shake up the chess game as a "chess piece".
However, he gradually discovered that his time travel was not an accident, but an experiment of the "Apocalypse Formation" of the former madman Li Bingchang. When the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms press the border and traitors appear everywhere, Xiang Dong must make the ultimate choice between historical necessity and personal beliefs: Should he activate the formation to return to the illusory stability, or cut off his retreat and fight to the end with this era that is destined to overthrow?
This is a duel of faith that spans nine hundred years, a passionate story about responsibility, belonging and "Thousands of people have left, but I will go".
