Amid mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, he discovers a secret military inheritance from the pre-Qin era. From then on, he sets out on the path of a conqueror, proving his way through slaughter and wielding political intrigue as a weapon. Han Jiangyue, a humble fisherman on the banks of the Yangtze, has a mysterious past and was born with a Daoist constitution. Through a twist of fate, he gains the supreme inheritance of the Daoists. With the sword in his hand, he measures the world; with an untainted heart, he seeks the way to immortality.

When brotherhood clashes with the duties of ruler and subject, and personal ambitions collide with the fate of all living beings, can they join hands to forge a whole new era in this shattered land?
