Sword and Boots Across the Rivers and Mountains

Lu Qingya, a poor-born youth, carries a mysterious sword bone. In a frontier town, he encounters a fallen Sword Immortal and is drawn into a grand scheme spanning a thousand years. From wandering the world with a wooden sword on his back to commanding the fate of the realm, the youth known as the Heaven-Leaked One writes his own principles with his sword amid a chaotic era of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Daoism vying for supremacy, nine dynasties rising and falling, and seventy-two blessed lands and grotto-heavens appearing in the world. When the long-sealed Map of the Mountains and Rivers reappears, and thirty-six ancient, famed swords awaken one after another, the straw-sandaled youth who always says, “I have a sword that can set things straight,” will finally become the one moving the pieces.
