At the boundary between yin and yang, evil spirits run rampant.
As a living envoy of the underworld, Li Mu walks among the living, helping the netherworld settle one mysterious calamity after another.
In a battle by the Luo River, his physical body is reduced to ashes, and a thousand years of kindred fate go up in smoke.
A strange dream from time immemorial: a lone candle atop a mountain, a figure with their back turned, and the words, “You came too early. I’ll wait for you here.”
After Cui, the Judge of the Underworld, concludes his trial, Li Mu is sent into the vast mortal world, with no hope of returning for five years.
The Great Way is broken, cultivators are few and far between, and Bureau 749 uses crystal stones to control the elements and safeguard peace in the world.
After enduring life, death, and the consequences of fate, Li Mu unlocks a unique Dao technique that harnesses karmic connections, and the remnant spirit of Nannan awakens alongside it.
On one side are the evil spirits stirring up trouble in the human world; on the other, an age-old contest between the underworld and the ancient evil gods.
Treading upon countless threads of karma, he moves step by step toward the fated end that awaits him.
