Buried under the land of China is a "Dragon Vein Nine Apertures" that runs through ancient civilizations. Each aperture is a taboo place, sealing secrets that should not exist in the world. The protagonist Shen Yuan accidentally inherited his grandfather's "Three Yin Soul Carving Technique" and can obtain memory fragments by touching ancient ruins, thereby uncovering the horrific truth buried by history.
In pursuit of the legendary "Nine Apertures Book" that can rewrite the laws of life and death, in the process, a huge conspiracy spanning five thousand years is discovered - how the rulers of the past generations and the mysterious organization "Night Watch" concealed the truth of history, and an existence far beyond human understanding is gradually awakening.
