Mo Yuan was originally a sole disciple of the "Tai Chi Xuanmen", the last line of Chinese martial arts. He lived in seclusion in the mountains and practiced hard for twenty years, integrating the three branches of boxing, medicine, and internal strength. Before his death, his master ordered him to "bring Chinese martial arts into the world", use martial arts to rectify his reputation, and use medicine to save the world.
When he first entered the city, Mo Yuan discovered that Chinese martial arts had been stigmatized as a "showman", and traditional martial arts schools closed down one after another, replaced by modern fight clubs packaged with capital. In order to raise funds to revitalize the school, he hid his identity and worked in a traditional Chinese medicine clinic. However, he was involved in urban disputes because he used "qi and blood acupuncture" to save the seriously injured female president of the group, Su Wanqing.
Su Wanqing's opponent hired an overseas fighting champion to join the martial arts world and lost to seven major martial arts schools in a row. Mo Yuan was forced to take action and used a move called "Tai Chi Cloud Hand" to defeat the enemy. The video went viral on the Internet and sparked heated discussions about "real martial arts". However, he also exposed his identity and attracted the pursuit of the "Breakers", an overseas organization that coveted the secrets of Chinese martial arts.
At the same time, Mo Yuan discovered that there were traitors in the nine branches of Chinese martial arts who colluded with capital, and wanted to package the essence of Chinese martial arts into "instant fighting skills" for commercial sale and cut off the true inheritance. He must accumulate connections as a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, while at the same time revitalizing the martial arts world as a successor of Chinese martial arts, uniting with fellow Chinese martial arts practitioners who still have the strength to fight against internal and external enemies.
And a bigger secret gradually emerges: the integration of the nine branches of Chinese martial arts can open the "Dragon Gate", which is not only the highest state of martial arts, but also related to the secret of the national destiny that has been silent for a hundred years...
