At Xuanqing Pavilion in Minghai’s old alley, Lin Xuan is a Golden Core geomancy master living quietly among ordinary people. He carries out the dying command of the Taiching lineage to protect China’s dragon veins, battling Yinluo’s evil cultivators, breaking deadly blood-curse formations, and preventing foreign powers from meddling with the land’s ley lines. He summons the local earth deity, invokes the Three Pure Ones, and joins forces with the underworld. Through geomancy, magical duels, and Taoist arts, he advances from the Golden Core realm to attain the Dao and become a Venerable Daoist, guarding the balance of yin and yang in the city and protecting the fortune of his country and people.
