Yan Zhi was originally an unemployed architect with millions of dollars in debt. He was forced into desperation by his creditors and hid in Hazy Street, a notoriously dangerous place in the city. He accidentally stumbled upon a mysterious murder scene that was torn apart by strange forces. When he was about to die, he activated the Yin Spirit Illustration System. The system regularizes the indescribable power of evil spirits. As long as you complete the tasks of hunting evil spirits and solving supernatural events, you can exchange skills, improve your abilities, and receive high bounties to help Yan Zhi change his destiny. But Yan Zhi did not expect that this strange scene was a trap set by hostile forces. As soon as he activated the system, he was listed as a high-risk evil cultivator by the official Alien Management Bureau. He was also hunted by a gang of ghost hunters to compete for the rare ghost materials he had collected.
The system gave Yan a death order. He must rise to a designated level within a year, otherwise he will be taken away by evil spirits in the system. His parents were also held hostage by loan sharks. If he failed, he would lose his life and relatives at the same time. There is only one way in front of Yan Zhi: rely on the abilities given by the system to peel off the cocoons among the fragmented clues, solve the endless supernatural incidents in the underworld, while uncovering the secrets hidden behind the system, and find a way to counterattack in the gap between the official and the villain forces. Every step is hidden with murderous intent, and every choice is a matter of life and death. Yan Zhi survives from the initial fear and gradually masters supernatural powers. Whether he can crack the huge conspiracy behind the Yinjie and rescue his parents to complete the counterattack before the countdown of the curse ends is still unknown.
