The world is divided into the mortal realm, the immortal realm, and the demon realm. The three realms stand like the three legs of a tripod: none can exist without the others.
Three years ago, the demon realm had just begun to take shape. Ghost markets sprang up in remote mountain passes throughout the land, bustling with activity. Fearing that the demon realm would dominate the world, the five great sects launched an assault. At the ghost market in Huanggang Mountain, Chang'an City, corpses littered the ground overnight. The Demon King was forced to emerge from seclusion and fought the five great sects for three days and three nights, with countless casualties. In the end, the five great sects fled the ghost market, gravely weakened. The Demon King raised a barrier that reduced any cultivator who entered it to an ordinary mortal.
The Ice Maiden Clan and Tianyuan Sect were the two most powerful sects in the immortal realm. It was said that the heir of the Ice Maiden Clan fell in love with the head of the Tianyuan Sect, and the two withdrew to the mountains, living in seclusion and avoiding worldly affairs. Now, with unrest spreading through the immortal realm, the five great sects hoped the two sects would emerge from seclusion and give them another advantage in case the demon realm retaliated.
Against this backdrop, whether by chance or design, Mu Yan of the Ice Maiden Clan and Shi Ye, the Demon King, met, came to know each other, and fell in love...
