The story takes place in the abandoned city "Xuanshu City" thousands of years after civilization has been extinguished. The protagonist Bing Liangyi, as an orphan adopted by the Dan League, accidentally awakens the dormant hybrid dragon bloodline in his body while cleaning up the radiation zone, and triggers the "Taiyi Innate Bone" inherited deep in the bloodline, which can perceive the most primitive "structure" of all things. In order to control the violent bloodline and explore his life experience, he joined the Alchemy Alliance, refined his body with the "Red Sky Controlling Thunder Method", and embarked on a unique alchemy path. During his training, he met "Mo Yan", a writing monk who was born in Wenxin Pavilion but questioned illusions, and "Xu", a mechanical life with self-awareness from the remnants of omnics. As his cultivation improves, Bing Liangyi becomes involved in the fierce battle between the "renovators" and the "conservatives" within the Dan Alliance over orthodoxy. At the same time, the "Nightmare Lord" from the depths of the literal world begins to erode reality, trying to pull everything into an eternal dream. Bing Liangyi gradually discovered that his dragon bloodline and Taiyi's innate bones were actually the key to connecting the ruins of reality and the fantasy world of words, and to reconciling "existence" and "meaning". In the end, in the depths of the ocean of consciousness, he harnessed the "blade of concept" with the state of "Eternal Heart and Mystery", not cutting off dreams, but cutting off the inherent concept of opposition between "real" and "illusion", allowing the two worlds to reach a new balance under the tolerance of "eternal elixir", and found a third way for cultivation civilization to transcend destruction and sinking.
