In the chaotic years after the Tang, immortals and demons have vanished from the world. All things wither, war fires blaze on every side, and the people suffer amid devastation!
The mighty beings of the Three Realms look down upon the mortal world as they bend events to their will. Ambitious warlords rise again and again, bringing war as they fight for power, while ordinary people struggle to survive in the mire.
Li Changle, a young herb gatherer who fell from a cliff yet miraculously survived, must ultimately embark on a wholly different path!
Riding an immortal sword, he aids a lord in peril. A poor man's virtue is worth more than a nobleman's wealth. If attaining immortality means slaying myself, then what does it matter if I never enter Heaven's Gate?
The universe is turned upside down, and the road ahead is impossible to predict!
In a lawless age, only the sword remains!
