In a high-martial world, the characters imprinted on your soul determine everything.
Shen Mu’s soul imprint comes from a copy of the Classic of Mountains and Seas that nobody thinks is worth reading.
No one knows that behind those ancient characters lie ferocious beasts of antiquity, asleep for ten thousand years.
Zhulong opens its eyes, turning day into night; Yinglong spreads its wings, bringing wind and rain.
While the whole world thinks he’s just a good-for-nothing carrying a broken book, he has already reached the pinnacle of martial arts with the exotic beasts of the mountains and seas at his side.
And it all began with an old book he picked up for three yuan in an alleyway in Shanghai.
