At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the earth collapsed and the Yellow Turbans swept across the country, heralding the arrival of an unprecedented chaotic world. This is not only the collapse of the dynasty, but also a bloody era in which martial law replaces the ethical order and dark forces quietly breed.
In this world, the power of heroes comes from the control of the "qi" of heaven and earth and the tempering of personal "will". The killing energy on the battlefield can condense into "evil energy", which increases the power of the technique, but also corrodes the mind. Cao Cao's "will to dominate" looks down upon the world, but he can't hide his infinite greed for power; Liu Bei gathers his "spirit of benevolence", but he also has to struggle to survive in the dark reality; Sun uses the water veins of Jiangdong to practice his unique mysterious skills. Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and other unparalleled generals have reached the level of "sage" in martial arts, and every move has the power to collapse mountains and crack rocks.
However, it was not just the temple princes who stirred up the storm. Hidden rivers and lakes forces are surging in the shadows: the remnants of Taiping Dao who master strange Taoism are waiting for opportunities; the assassins of the Shadow Pavilion trade wealth and secrets with death; the Mohist heritage who inherits the art of mechanism and defense martial arts is trying to protect a glimmer of light in troubled times; and the Wubao of the aristocratic families who have strong military self-respect everywhere master the unknown ancient martial arts inheritance.
War and death have given rise to substantial "resentment", polluting the land, distorting living beings, and invisibly amplifying the darkness of human nature. Extraordinary power is often accompanied by curses and backlash. Zhuge Liang's Qi Men Dun Jia and Zuo Ci's illusions are not without cost. The legendary magical weapon has its own will, and it can also backfire on its owner if it chooses its master.
