Ziyang 4: The Undying Body

Slay demons and vanquish evil. March east to quell the chaos. Heaven and earth torn apart. Become a demon for love. To fulfill his pact with the Zhao Kingdom, Mo Wen led its army on an arduous three-year campaign east, destroying countless monsters and reclaiming vast stretches of lost territory. But in the final battle, Princess Shi Zhen of Zhao, hopelessly in love with Mo Wen, secretly sabotaged his cinnabar ink. At the crucial moment, Mo Wen could not cast his talismans, and the army was nearly wiped out. He himself barely escaped with his life. In his hour of peril, he happened upon an old acquaintance, the wolf spirit Hei San, who saved him. Mo Wen returned his seal and armor, hoping to retire to the countryside with his former classmate and beloved, the fox immortal A Jiu. He went to great lengths to excavate Cao Cao’s tomb, believing that a strange fungus found there could turn A Jiu into an ordinary human. But A Jiu still carried the aura of another kind, and the two broke the laws of Heaven. A Jiu was sentenced to eternal imprisonment, and the pair were forbidden to meet again. To find her, Mo Wen embarked on an even more perilous journey.
