Breaking the Secret of Heaven is a full-length adventure mystery novel by Yaoyan Huozhong.

In the autumn of 1974, in the Shahu Dong area of Chifeng, Inner Mongolia. A band of tomb raiders breaks into the rebirth altar of Ao Gu Dayue Wu, a great Khitan priestess. A fragment of a Taoist text that should never have appeared sparks a battle between the dead of a thousand years ago and the living of the present day.

A soul-snaring painting of bewitching women; a coffin bed of lust that brings people to a wrongful death; two Taoist sorcerers who are sworn enemies yet buried in the same tomb; elusive treasure hunters who dive for hidden riches; the White-Skinned Granny who loves to burrow into barren graves; a ghost island seen once every sixty years; a cement coffin turned upside down on a paper boat; drowned corpses on the seabed that turn over to bask in the moonlight; strange, cross-dressing demons asleep in the Eye of the Earth…

Winner of the Silver Award for Literature at the iQIYI World Conference.

Some chapters have been optioned by well-known directors in China and prominent film companies overseas.
