Lei Ming, the Lei family’s patriarch, had been asleep for a hundred years when his unworthy descendant, Lei Ling, accidentally awakened him from the Thunder Abyss.
His cultivation was gone, his memories were muddled, and the world before him was nothing like the one he remembered. Worse, the Lei family heir who should have inherited the Daoist arts was an archaeology student who dismissed demon-suppressing techniques as feudal superstition.
A woman in red, a vengeful mother and child, a train steeped in resentment: a mysterious organization seeking to revive an ancient demon is stirring up overwhelming resentment in the mortal world. Lei Ming’s powers come and go, and every spell he casts is a gamble with his life. As one bizarre incident after another comes to light, he gradually discovers that his long sleep, the demon’s seal, and a woman named Su Yuexi all point to the same truth:
Beneath the Thunder Abyss, far more than one demon has been sealed away.
