In a parallel late Ming era, the dynasty is collapsing.
The Embroidered Uniform Guard massacres meritorious officials, while treacherous villains rule the court.
The Jurchens of the northern frontier eye the Central Plains hungrily, and the realm teeters on the brink of ruin.
There is an iron law in this world, unchanged since time immemorial:
The greater one's power, the greater one's fortune. Martial artists born to humble families are doomed to sink into the mire forever.
The fortune left behind by the Dragonfall of ten thousand years ago has been monopolized by noble houses and powerful families.
A century of pent-up grievances, ten thousand bones bearing injustice: this is the Jianghu's resentment.
Diwu Taiyi,
the ageless ancestor of the Diwu royal clan, who has lived for a thousand years, the sole surviving Supreme Being from the Dragonfall.
His martial arts and killing techniques have all reached the pinnacle.
With a single thought, he split into six incarnations, dominating the twin kill lists of the Great Ming and the Northern Frontier, and crushing the entire martial world of the Shadow Realm.
After watching the world coldly for a thousand years, he finally passed judgment for all eternity:
“This world has never been fair. Anyone who sees me must die. Anyone who kills me must die.”
When an invincible immortal enters the world,
he alone will defy the imperial court, shatter the great clans, suppress foreign invaders, and right every injustice that has plagued the world for ages!
