On a September afternoon, during a math class at Middlebury High School, purple clouds engulfed the sky. The ferocious bird Qingtai in the Classic of Mountains and Seas smashed into the classroom window, the class teacher fell under the podium, and his deskmate Zhao Ming died in front of him. The jade pendant on Zhou Huang's chest exploded with golden light at that moment, and a source of power from the beginning of the universe awakened in his body - the Divine Veins of Emperor Jun, opened.
He thought this was just the beginning of the end. What he didn't know was that the words "We will leave you more than this piece of jade" left behind by his parents when they left home a year ago hid the truth about the collapse of the seal system of the Three Realms. The Ten Big Cave Heavens, the Thirty-Six Small Cave Heavens, and the Seventy-Two Blessed Lands—those famous mountains recorded in Taoist classics for thousands of years, each one is a lock. It locks the fallen angels who fell from heaven to the mortal world, locks the evil ghosts and souls who crawled out of the underworld, and locks the existences whose names were wiped out in the ancient battle of the gods. And now, the lock is rusty.
Zhou Huang stood up from the ruins of the campus, holding a javelin engraved with dark gold formations. The indifferent young man Li Han with the Qinyuan bloodline, the fat foodie Wang Kaixuan with the gluttonous bloodline, the fierce girl Lu Qingcheng with the inheritance of Zhurong Remnant Fire, and the calm girl Xu Fang who specializes in ice shield defense, regained the lost land inch by inch in the human restricted area where alien beasts are rampant. They sealed the cave heaven and the blessed land, annihilated the fallen angels of the heavenly stems and earthly branches, closed the Nantian Gate, blocked the gate of hell, and re-locked the seal system of the Three Realms link by link. But the closer we get to the truth, the more we come across a primitive being sleeping deep in the cracks of the East China Sea - and an inscription left by Emperor Jun billions of years ago:
"There is a promise in the beginning. The three realms are separated, and Kunlun is the lock. On the day when the lock is broken, the beginning is reopened."
