In Jiangnan, where the porcelain culture of the Song Dynasty was at its peak, Shen Qingci, a talented female porcelain maker, was determined to pursue the secrets of the legendary "bone china" and "ice cracks" in order to fulfill her father's last wish. In a moment of desperation, she poured blood into the glaze and awakened a "spiritual" bone china Guanyin statue, which she named "Wu Ming".
Since then, the fate of people and porcelain has been tightly entwined by an invisible "string". The porcelain spirit cannot speak, and its existence and emotions are transformed into the ever-spreading, poignant ice cracks on the glaze; Shen Qingci can also simultaneously feel every throb, fear and severe pain of the porcelain spirit. This is not a miracle, but the beginning of a curse, a fate of "symbiosis" and "common death" between the creator and the creation.
From the initial connection with the broken porcelain on a rainy night, to the reverse protection of the porcelain spirit by blooming the "Ice Cracked Flower" in the desperate situation of the fire scene, Shen Qingci gradually understood that what she had concluded was not a perfect artifact, but a silent soul willing to bear all harm for her. In order to protect "Wu Ming" and explore the truth, she was forced to enter a secret world called "Kuding Alliance" and interact with many strange people who possess forbidden skills. However, the road ahead is full of mist, and the ultimate price of "human-porcelain symbiosis" hangs high like the sword of Damocles.
This is a story that exudes the beauty of Eastern mourning and the atmosphere of classical fantasy. It tells about paranoid creation, silent sacrifice, reverse protection, and the extremely sad and extremely warm bond between two souls (one person and one porcelain) on the road destined to destruction and splendor.
Concept: The bond formed in desperate situations explains the value of life and mutual redemption beyond form.
