A new century, a new era. On some day in 2030, the sky tears open.
By a twist of fate, five True Immortals secretly descend to the mortal world, slaughtering without mercy. The people pray to Buddhas and beseech the immortals, while the machinery of state takes to the skies and tunnels beneath the earth in search of immortal protection. Those with immortals in their families enjoy their protection, while those without can only look on enviously. Archaeologists and historians deduce that the blood of Qin Shi Huang's descendants can unlock the world's barrier. Along the way, the Kong, Zhuang, Mo, and Meng families join forces, and love blossoms. In the end, they trace everything to the Cao family. A descendant of Cao Cao possesses secret family records that reveal part of the mystery surrounding Qin Shi Huang's tomb. Within the tomb, he obtains the Emperor's Sword, learns ancient arts, and discovers that there have been no immortals since the Shang dynasty, though immortal artifacts remain. He breaks through Earth's barrier of spiritual energy and spends a century building a new world. Gradually infiltrating the ranks of the false immortals, he outwits and battles them, kills every True Immortal, and restores peace to the world. He cuts off the path to immortality and brings peace back to the mortal realm.
