Between heaven and earth, there is a secret place called the ruins. In the ruins stands an unmarked stone tablet, which is guarded by Shen Qingyan for eternity. He follows the iron law: there are ruins in the heaven and earth, and all requests are answered. One wish, one price, and the price will come from itself.
Su Wanhe, a girl with spiritual eyes who was born with the ability to see the secret realm of yin and yang, accidentally stepped into the ruins realm and became the only witness to the ten great wishes spanning ancient and modern times. Since then, eternal joys and sorrows have followed one after another: the ancient great witch Wu Cang exchanged his eyes for the peace of his tribe; the water controller Gonggonglin transformed his body into a mountain to bring peace to the world; the general Lu Chen exchanged eternal infamy for the lives of the city; the woman Su Nian of the Republic of China exchanged a lifelong absence for the return of her lover. Mother Lin Wanqiu exchanged ten years of life for the survival of her young son, veteran policeman Zhao Jianguo exchanged night terrors for justice, young Chen Mo exchanged forgotten love for the rest of his life, Zhinang Yunxiu exchanged ten ulcers on her fingers for the inheritance of ingenuity, and doctor Su He sacrificed himself for the elimination of the plague.
The nine wishes are established, and the monument has nine marks. In the end, Shen Qingyan, the keeper of the ruins, sacrificed the eternal loneliness and made his tenth wish to save all living beings. The ten wishes are chanted together, the heart is fully opened, all the price is paid back, all the regrets are finally fulfilled, and all the remaining souls are released. Once the dream of the Eternal Ruins comes to an end, the secret realm returns to silence, the white mist dissipates, and there are no more shortcomings in the world.
