The teeth of fate bite the secret between the two worlds.
In a strange rainy night, Lin Xiaofan, a delivery boy who was already desperate, unexpectedly got a soul-devouring tooth as black as ink. From then on, the appearance of the ordinary city suddenly shattered in his eyes - the painted-skinned ghost used human beings to clothe himself, the water ghost weaved a scapegoat net at the bottom of the river, and the century-old mirror spirit imprisoned the sunken self. A strange and dangerous extraordinary world opened up to him.
Under the guidance of the mysterious "night watchman" Granny Meng, Lin Xiaofan inherited the ancient "gatekeeper" mantle, harnessed the power of the spirit-devouring teeth, walked in the shadows of Jiangcheng, investigated mysterious cases, and devoured evil spirits. However, predators are also coveted. The iron-fisted order of the official paranormal administration, the complex entanglements of folk exorcism forces, and the mysterious organization "Breaking the World" who calls itself the "Opener" and collects soul-eating teeth frantically put Lin Xiaofan in a whirlpool every step of the way.
Just when he thought his opponent was just a monster in the shadows of the city, an eternal truth gradually emerged: the Spirit-Eating Tooth is no ordinary magical weapon. They are the bolts that seal the cracks in the world and the keys that open forbidden doors. Every swallow is getting closer to the abyss; every growth is shaking the balance.
From awakening from ignorance, to mastering the power of devouring, to facing the terrifying nature of his own power, Lin Xiaofan's growth path is accompanied by the loosening of the old seal and the layout of the chess players behind the scenes. When old friends become enemies, when protection becomes shackles, when personal friendship and the choice of life and death in the three realms come
Will the teeth biting the throat of fate swallow the abyss, or drag himself completely into the eternal darkness from which there is no turning back?
