Lin Ye, a young man from an urban village, is forced to survive by collecting garbage after falling behind on his rent. By chance, he finds half of a broken mirror covered in strange symbols. The mirror not only lets him see an ink-black vortex deep within his left eye, but also drags him into an eighteen-year-old conspiracy: the Xuanmen's pursuit, eerie shadows in black robes, and the secrets of the blood moon...
He soon discovers that he is no ordinary orphan, but an abandoned infant of the Xuanmen known as the "Child of the Blood Moon." His left eye conceals the core of the "Soul-Calming Mirror," a power capable of overturning the world, and is closely connected to a stone gate sealed with "Original Sin." The bizarre death of Old Wang, messages from a mysterious stranger, the New Xuan Sect's relentless pursuit, and the appearance of other "vessels"... Every clue points to one truth: what did his mother seal with her life eighteen years ago, the hope of salvation or the beginning of destruction?
When all seven fragments of the Soul-Calming Mirror are gathered and the power in his left eye fully awakens, Lin Ye must choose between the righteous Xuanmen, the ambitions of the New Xuan Sect, and the temptation of the "Abyss." Will he become the key that opens the abyss, or the light that reverses his fate?
This is a story of loneliness and redemption, and an adventure weaving through the bustle of everyday life and the mysteries of the Xuanmen. Every seemingly ordinary person hides a secret that could overturn everything you know; every seemingly chance encounter is a foreshadowing of fate, written long ago.
