Lu Yan, a lecturer in folklore, was born with a pair of "illusion-breaking eyes" that can see the fate of all things. However, due to family tragedy and his father's warning, he is willing to dormant under the illusion of peace in the modern city.
Until a series of strange events occurred in Longyuan University: students knelt down for no reason in the middle of the night, blood flowed under the ancient stone bridge, and the sleeping earth veins groaned before awakening... Lu Yan was forced to open his eyes and stepped into a metaphysical world that had been hidden by the curtain of science for thousands of years.
Here, Feng Shui is not a decoration, but the ultimate law that can determine life and death and the fate of a country. The mystery of the extermination of the family in the past is vaguely connected to the "luck stealing array" quietly laid out in the city today. The shadows, headed by business giant Qin Rushan, are trying to drain the dragon veins of Kyushu and reverse life and death. The official agency "Abnormality Bureau", which has been secretly following him, has an equally ambiguous attitude.
Lu Yan must make a choice: continue to escape the fate and backlash brought by the spiritual pupil, or pick up the family legacy and protect the last vitality of this land in the cracks between the conservative Taoism, the new school of science and technology, and the treacherous foreign enemies?
From the campus evil situation to the inheritance in the secret realm, from the urban battle to the decisive battle in the mountains and rivers. When the final battlefield unfolds at the origin of the dragon vein, Lu Yan will finally understand that the real "dragon suppression" is not to suppress the earth's energy, but to suppress the endless greed of people; to protect not only the dragon vein, but also the precarious balance between heaven, earth and human beings.
This is a story about inheritance, protection and choice. Ancient wisdom collides with modern cities, and personal destiny intertwines with national destiny. When you see through all the good and bad, do you choose to be alone, or do you choose to guard this last mountain and river for the common people?
