In the third year of the Tianqi era of the Great Zhou, the northern frontier was under attack as the barbarian cavalry swept south. The border was in crisis. Lin Feng, a wounded foot soldier stationed on the frontier, fell into an abyss and unexpectedly awakened a bronze battle armor sealed by an ancient dragon soul. When he returned from the Dragon Abyss, his dark armor could withstand a million troops, and his eyes had seen visions of a future in which the land lay in ruins.
At court, the powerful chancellor secretly colluded with a foreign enemy, while the crown prince was embroiled in suspicions of witchcraft. Across the martial world, thousand-year-old sects emerged to contend for the legendary Nine Cauldrons Map, said to be capable of changing the fate of the nation. Meanwhile, deep in the snows of the far north, a slumbering ancient god opened its eyes...
This is a clash between the iron will of mortals and the power of gods and demons. With the Dragon Abyss battle blade in hand, Lin Feng will journey from the hills of corpses at the frontier into the undercurrents of the imperial capital, and from mortal battlefields into ancient ruins. In a fracture in history, he will use his mortal body to forge a path to survival for Huaxia.
