The subjugated prince "Ye Lin" was turned into a slave after his family was bloodbathed by the "Shadow Eater Order" and was barely surviving. In order to seek revenge, he accidentally broke into a forbidden ruins and was forced to swallow the "Seed of Nothingness" that sealed the core of the "Eye of Sleep" of the old ruler. From then on, he gained the strange power to peer into the truth and distort reality, but the price was the constant loss of sanity and physical alienation. Ye Lin used this power to fight his way out of the slave mine and embark on a lonely journey of revenge. He tracked down the Shadow Devouring Order, only to find that there were several ancient sects and high-ranking empire officials behind the order, all coveting the power of the ancient gods. During the journey, he met "Ling", an independent and powerful occult explorer. The two went from being suspicious of each other to working together to uncover the dark truth of the world. As the power increased, the "Sleeping Eye" consciousness in Ye Lin's body began to awaken, trying to seize his body as a container for the coming world. Ye Lin not only has to fight against external enemies, but also has to undergo a cruel test of inner demons with the "god" in his heart. He experienced betrayal, deception, and even self-darkness, and finally had to make the ultimate choice between destroying the old world and allowing the ancient gods to completely descend, or protecting the remaining humanity and creating a new world without gods.
