Hundreds of Years of Strange Agreement

In 2026, a piece of news that "a rooster crows and the world is bright" caused a sensation on the entire Internet, but no one knew that this was a precursor to the expiration of the global spiritual energy seal that lasted for a hundred years - the "Century Covenant". Weird incidents occurred all over the country: "zombie" traces reappeared, some people witnessed "tribulation", and there was a hidden Feng Shui murder plot under the river... Xuan Ming, a young Taoist priest who is a true disciple of Luban Shu and Maoshan Taoism, was secretly recruited into the newly established "Group 7 of the National Anomaly Investigation Bureau". His first task is to deal with the suspected replica of the "zombie incident". However, as the investigation deepens, Xuan Ming discovers that behind all the strange phenomena, they actually point to the mysterious contract signed by extraordinary people at home and abroad. Nowadays, there are many forces trying to tear up the agreement and create a strange global outbreak in order to compete for hegemony in the new era. From the ghost town of Fengdu to the wealthy families of Hong Kong, from the dragon veins of Qinling Mountains to the Foxconn workshop, Xuan Ming and his colleagues in Group 7 shuttle between reality and weirdness to find the truth in urban legends. And when he finally arrived at the site of the "Promise Keeper" deep in the Qinling Mountains, an even crueler truth emerged: his ancestor was one of the supervisors of the contract; and the real consequence of the expiration of the "hundred-year contract" was not the revival of spiritual energy, but a "screening" experiment that had been planned for hundreds of years and targeted all mankind. Morning and dusk have been reversed, and Xuan Ming must make a choice - to become a defender of the new rules, or to win a chaotic but free future for mankind at all costs.
