The Nine Provinces may seem peaceful and secure, but beneath the surface, dark currents are stirring. The mighty Imperial Capital has long since been occupied by evil spirits, and the emperor has become their puppet. The court is beset by troubles within and threats without. One day, the winds will rise and great waves will follow. The three elders of Mount Sanqing, Jing Xuan, Huan Yue, and You Lan, had already sensed that something was amiss. Following the will of Wan Gu Cang, they descended the mountain to seek the one chosen by fate and take them as their disciple. When the Black Dragon appears at the Dragon Offering Ceremony, they send several disciples down the mountain to travel the world, find their true selves, and obtain the four great treasures. They will destroy the evil spirits in the Imperial Capital and restore peace to the Nine Provinces.
