During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, a man was rebellious, disobedient and used to sneak around. He was caught in the process of stealing and was imprisoned. In prison, he did not give up on himself. Instead, due to his improved state of mind, he was promoted to the "Yinxuan Ghost Thief". This promotion attracted the attention of Xiao Ao, a strong man in the ghost world who controlled the "Disk of Reincarnation".
Zhuo Ao realized that the five rumored artifacts might be about to be born, so he began to devise a conspiracy. He used the "Disk of Reincarnation" to find those who had a fate entangled with the five artifacts, and then used the "Dream Stealing Technique" to create nightmares, and the temptation drove these people to slowly gather together.
In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, the prince Li Chengqian was deposed for treason, and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty established his ninth son, King Li Zhi of Jin, as the prince. Just when Taizong Li Shimin decided to give the treasure Qinglong Xu to the new prince, he discovered that the treasure had been lost. Taizong was furious and ordered all kinds of strangers to secretly search for the whereabouts of the treasure. Those who found the treasure would be rewarded heavily.
