Lin Xia, a feng shui master from a family with three generations of practitioners, deciphered the “reverse evil” in an ancient tomb in the wilderness, only to suffer a devastating backlash from its dark forces. When he opened his eyes, he had transmigrated into a fictional war-torn era, becoming a disgraced southern border general in the capital, with only five hundred old and infirm soldiers under his command. Their supply wagons had been robbed, miasma threatened their lives, his superiors made things difficult at every turn, and the tribes watched them like hawks. From the start, he was trapped in a hopeless dead end.
Though he had lost his ancestral brass compass, he used his feng shui arts to find ingenious ways out of trouble: reading the stars, identifying “life-force openings,” and avoiding the deadly miasma; using plants and running water to find a way to survive. He not only saved the soldiers on the brink of death, but also reignited the morale of their scattered ranks. When faced with raids by the Chimu Tribe and invasions by foreign enemies, he turned feng shui into a weapon, surveying the terrain and laying ambushes. With his extraordinary ability to “read the veins of energy and choose auspicious ground,” he gradually earned their trust and united the scattered forces of the southern tribes. Watch as he rises step by step to become the King of the Southern Tribes, and ultimately ascends to the throne.
