The Soul Crosses the Mortal World, and the Love Shakes the Nine Heavens

The story revolves around the old home of the Gu family. Gu Qingru returns to her former residence due to her mother's death, but encounters strange phenomena such as the everlasting lights extinguishing for no reason and a mysterious blood handkerchief. As the investigation deepens, she discovers that her mother is actually related to the family's dark history of being buried alive for sacrifice—an ancient formation that requires direct bloodline sacrifices is hidden beneath the old house. With the assistance of folklorist Shen Yanzhou and her friend Lin Wanqiu, Gu Qingru gradually uncovered the secrets such as the burial of her third aunt alive and the curse of the blood handkerchief. Finally, through self-sacrifice and wisdom, she reversed the sacrifice formation, ended the century-old curse, redeemed the trapped souls, and completed her own redemption.
