New York: the financial heart of the world, a modern jungle forged from steel and glass. To the average onlooker, it is a battlefield of capital; to Shen Yu, it is a treacherous landscape of "Silver-Shredding Traps" and "Heaven-Cleaving Slights." As an authentic heir to Taoist tradition, Shen Yu possesses the heavy destiny of Wu-Earth. He originally intended to live a reclusive life of cultivation in this "Metal and Water" dominant city, only to be unexpectedly ensnared in a metaphysical conspiracy spanning over a century: Why did a top Wall Street venture capital firm collapse overnight? It wasn’t stock market volatility, but the glass curtain wall of the opposite building acting as a blade, severing the veins of wealth. Why does a dragon’s roar echo from the bottom of the Hudson River? It isn’t the subway; someone is attempting to refine the entire island of Manhattan into a "Dragon-Locking Formation" to imprison a nation’s destiny. And why does his silhouette appear in a photograph from a hundred years ago? When modern technology collides with ancient forbidden arts, and Western skyscrapers are transformed into Eastern altars, Shen Yu stands amidst the tangled desires of Manhattan. With a single copper coin in one hand and half a cup of black coffee in the other, he balances Yin and Yang, adjudicates life and death, and mends the dragon veins.

Ariyan, a brilliant but isolated university student with a knack for solving impossible puzzles, leads a life of quiet boredom—until a mysterious, blood-stained parcel arrives at his window. Inside lies an ancient leather map that shouldn't exist, covered in glowing symbols that whisper of a forgotten civilization. In a single night, Ariyan goes from a coder to a fugitive. Hunted by a shadowy global organization known as 'The Vanguard,' he is thrust into a deadly race to find a lost city that holds the key to an ancient, world-altering power. With no one to trust and a map that seems to have a mind of its own, Ariyan must survive treacherous jungles, solve lethal traps, and uncover the dark truth about his own lineage. The journey has begun. The shadows are watching. And once the map is unsealed, there is no turning back.

Ao Yu is jolted awake from a nightmare in which he drowns following a fierce argument with the teaching assistant, Wu Feng. To his horror, he realizes the grim details of the dream are manifesting in reality with chilling accuracy. Even more terrifying, no matter how he tries to escape—by stealing a boat, feigning illness, or warning the islanders—the deadly tsunami arrives right on schedule, mercilessly dragging him to his death and plunging him into a new cycle of this hellish loop. During these desperate repetitions, Ao Yu witnesses a series of bizarre and horrifying phenomena: a sinister Soul Banner churning the waves, a bloody murder at the lighthouse, and Loong Grandma's husband being twisted by dark magic into a monstrous shark. Piece by piece, he uncovers the truth: a spy named Umimoto from the Doom-Scorned Kingdom has come to steal the Loong Palace's sacred treasure, the Aqua Pura Vase. The Doom-Scorned Kingdom is using the evil artifact, the Soul Banner, to create a countdown to catastrophe—if Umimoto fails to find the vase, the banner will unleash a sacrificial tsunami. To complete his mission, Umimoto ruthlessly harms the islanders. The secret of the Aqua Pura Vase, astonishingly, is hidden within a seemingly unremarkable rolling pin that bears the "East Sea Loong Scenery" painting. Joining forces with Wu Feng, Granny Bao, and Xiao Yi, Ao Yu races against the relentless time loop. They expose Umimoto's conspiracy, endure the agony of failed attempts to secure the treasure, and suffer the pain of seeing loved ones controlled by dark forces. Ultimately, they activate the true power of the Loong Scenery painting in the kitchen's hearth—opening the long-sealed Loong Gate. Storming into the Loong Palace, Ao Yu and Wu Feng feel their dormant Loong bloodline awaken. Confronting Umimoto, who has seized the Aqua Pura Vase, and facing the Soul Banner's violent backlash, Wu Feng—now awakened as a Loong woman—recites a Heart-Cleansing Incantation under Loong Grandma's guidance. This summons a purifying downpour that shatters the Soul Banner's core and critically wounds Umimoto. Though the tsunami is averted, Umimoto's furious roars as he flees signal that the threat is far from over. In the aftermath, the survivors of White Sand Island finally begin to unravel the ancient secrets buried deep beneath the waves and within their very blood

In the heart of New York City, where ambition bleeds into the shadows, an ancient power has arrived. Lin Mo, the last descendant of a forgotten Taoist lineage, sits in the shadow of the Wall Street Bull. To the world, he is a penniless vagrant in tattered robes. To the entities lurking beneath the subway grates and within the penthouses of the elite, he is the only thing standing between humanity and the abyss. When a wave of supernatural suicides plagues the city and the bronze icons of capitalism begin to thirst for blood, the NYPD’s Occult Task Force is forced to turn to the man they once tried to arrest. Armed with cinnabar seals, a peach-wood sword, and a sharp wit, Lin Mo takes on the demons of the New World. From the haunted alleys of Chinatown to the cursed boardrooms of the 1%, the game of Yin and Yang has begun. Welcome to New York. Mind the ghosts.

Seven years ago, a nameless infant was abandoned in the wilderness, his meridians declared broken, his future already condemned. Raised as nothing more than a servant in the Verdant Pine Sect, Lin Tian's fate seemed sealed-mocked, bullied, and destined to live and die in obscurity. But everything changed the day he stumbled upon a mysterious herb infused with Primordial Qi-a force older than heaven and earth. Within him stirred the Primordial Map, a will that had slumbered since before his birth. "Others cultivate spirit qi. You will cultivate the source of all qi-the primordial itself. Their methods are useless to you. Only your pathways, evolved through me, can carry such power." Armed with a power no one else could touch, Lin Tian steps onto a path that none have walked before. The world will call him crippled. His enemies will laugh. But one day, when the map reveals its true vastness, the heavens themselves will tremble. This is not the story of a genius born with talent. This is the rise of a servant boy who dares to defy the heavens with nothing but his will-and the map that charts destiny itself.
