Seeking the Dao at Cloud Palace

The Daoist arts of the Immortal Realm have collapsed, mortals have twisted the meaning of Heaven's way, and fallen immortals are secretly plotting murder. A perfected cultivator is ordered to send disciples down to the mortal world to set things right, only to glimpse the bloody truth behind the "edict to spread the Dao": cracks are appearing in the Nine Heavens' seal, and the Queen Mother's line is quietly rotting from within. A young man enters the mortal world with a Soul-Locking Nail driven into his immortal bones, playing his own solitary game between the people and the Way of Heaven.
