A Buddha sits upon a seven-colored lotus with thirty-three petals, presiding over the Buddhist Three Realms and the Thirty-Three Heavens. He cultivates karma and gathers incense offerings, having already opened the road to heaven. The Confucians turn books into forests and forests into seas, building vast libraries whose countless streams of bookish energy surge into the sky. They amass this energy and cultivate in their eighteen-story libraries. Their cultivators practice the noble spirit of righteousness, using it to open the road to heaven in pursuit of eternal life... But the road to immortality is broken... The Hundred Schools contend, all seeking that one thread of survival...
There are geniuses with double pupils, arcane gateways between heaven and earth, the Azure Emperor’s cursed domain, and mighty swords with no edge...
You ask what I have? I have a master with two minds: one is a bandit, and the other a con artist. The bandit master teaches me to snatch anything I like as long as I can see it. The other teaches me that a person should have a dream. Our dream is to make all the beautiful women in the world one big family... You ask if my dream is to become an immortal? I don’t want to become an immortal. I want to become an Immortal Emperor and build a court where everyone can become an immortal!
