In an age of great upheaval, heroes vie for supremacy. Sects and noble houses rise, while dynasties battle for dominion. The Investiture of the Gods has yet to appear, and the Book of Life and Death has yet to reveal itself to the mortal world. With the Classic of Mountains and Seas in hand, Lu Jing travels through countless hidden realms: Zombie Valley, Mount Wanshou, Mount Zhaoyao, Xuanyuan Hill, Tianchi... The First Emperor awakens and returns with an army of three hundred thousand dead. Who will inherit the legacies of Xuanyuan and the Human Emperor? What will become of the tangled love and hatred between Mozi and the Puppet Master? Amid this chaotic age, only Lu Jing strides in, singing, carrying wine as he goes, seeking freedom and the path to immortality. (Passionate action + a little humor + lots of references)
