In the Barren Realm where status is determined by spirit bones, the mine slave Ji Shi accidentally awakens the Barren-Suppressing Monument during a mining disaster and discovers his connection to the ancient history of the Barren clan. Facing oppression and manhunts, he consistently protects A Man, refusing to be swayed by power and hatred, instead investigating the truth behind the black barren bones and ancestral tombs all the way. Ultimately, he returns ten thousand bones to their tombs, lifts the bondage of the mine slaves, and restores dignity to the buried clansmen. The story tells us that birth does not determine value, and true strength lies in holding onto kindness, responsibility, and courage, using actions to shatter prejudice and lead more people to embrace their own light.
