It's been a hundred years since the Buddhist scriptures ended. The three realms are still the same three realms - the immortal race is at the top, the human race is struggling to survive, and the demon race is at the bottom, squeezed dry even to the bones and flesh.
Yuan Tingfeng, the mining demon of Qingwu Mountain Spirit Mine, is in the middle stage of Qi Entrainment. His biggest wish in this life is to live - to go to the mines alive, to pay the quota while alive, and to sleep in that drafty stone house alive.
But there are things hidden in his body that he cannot explain: he will dream of a golden pillar falling towards him; he can hear conversations that he should not hear from hundreds of feet away; every time his pickaxe falls, it hits the most vulnerable part of the ore accurately. He knew something was wrong with him. In the mines, "something wrong" can kill you.
So he was silent, numb, and inconspicuous, living like an inconspicuous stone on Qingwu Mountain.
Until one day, a voice rang in his head——
"Come to me."
He didn't know what it was or who was calling him. All he knew was that if he didn't look for that voice, he would never know who he was.
And somewhere he couldn't see - at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, someone was chained to the Buddha's throne and had been waiting for a hundred years.
