Li Ye, a down-and-out Feng Shui master, accidentally inherited the ancestral "Yin Yang Compass", but was forcibly pulled into a death game designed by the thousand-year-old ghost king "Jiuyou". The rules are cruel and simple: every midnight, solve a mysterious murder case of a wealthy family, and redeem the ghosts in exchange for clues. If you fail, you will become the ghost king's substitute and you will never be reincarnated.
Li Ye was forced into the game, the compass illuminated the cause and effect, the cinnabar drew the spell, and the Five Emperors set up the formation with money. However, every time he uses the secret technique of Feng Shui, his remaining yang energy is consumed at an accelerated rate. As the investigation deepened, he was horrified to discover that these old murder cases actually pointed to the bloody god-killing ceremony of the four major families a hundred years ago - in order to seize the dragon vein, they turned the whole family of tombkeepers into Yin soldiers!
What's even more despairing is that when Li Ye finally stood at the end and was about to reveal the truth, he discovered that the final BOSS who controlled everything was actually his great-grandfather who was turned into a ghost. It turns out that all death games are just a shocking plan to resurrect the dragon-veined Yin God. In this chess game with ghosts, how should he use his remaining life to change his destiny against the will of heaven?
