Synopsis

All cultivators dream of reaching xian—immortality. But underneath that noble pursuit lies the Mo Dao, a forbidden and dangerous path. Wei Wuxian, a talented cultivator, turns to this dark art after a series of tragedies. His power grows, but so does the destruction around him, until the cultivation clans unite against him and he's killed by his closest friend. Thirteen years later, Wei Wuxian inexplicably returns, reborn in the body of a madman. He crosses paths with Lan Wangji, someone from his past, and the two find themselves caught in a supernatural mystery that's terrorizing the clans. Together, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji investigate the strange phenomena plaguing their world. Whether facing demons, restless ghosts, or rival cultivators, they slowly develop an unexpected connection as they uncover the truth behind the spiritual mysteries surrounding them.
