Maoshan, the most blessed place of Taoism, now only has two Taoist priests, one old and one young.
Thirty-six-year-old Lin Yi went to the mountain at the age of six and followed his master to practice the seventy-two Taoist techniques of Maoshan for thirty years. Talismans, spells, thunder techniques, feng shui - he knows everything, but he can't use anything. Because in this era, ghosts are gone.
Until his master fell ill and was hospitalized, Lin Yi went down the mountain alone to inspect a family's "haunted" old house.
He discovered that it was not a ghost at all.
It was a sword—a sword that sealed the ancient evil creature "". And his unintentional blow broke the seal.
Thirty years ago, the thing that the master asked him to "guard" broke out from the depths of Maoshan Mountain.
Overnight, the evil spirit that had been dormant for thousands of years began to wake up. And Lin Yi, the last Taoist priest who doesn't even have a car and whose cell phone signal is intermittent, will be the last line of defense in the world.
He has no brothers, no backers, and not even a few people who believe in him.
He only has a rusty peach wood sword, a Taoist technique that he has never really used, and an ancestral precept engraved in his bones——
"Disciples of Maoshan, slay demons and demons until death."
When ancient Taoism collides with modern cities, and when evil things that have been banned for thousands of years reappear in the world, the journey of guarding the mountains of the last Taoist priest has just begun.
