In the twenty-eighth year of the First Emperor of Qin, the water in the Yellow River receded seven feet, and an ancient city that had been sleeping at the bottom of the river for thousands of years came to light again.
Eighteen-year-old Asen was taken into the city by the Qin army. He thought he would die, but by mistake, he swallowed the "Nine-Tune Yang Fetus" contained in the Eight Treasure Box.
From that day on, he never aged.
The fall of Qin and the rise of Han, the Three Kingdoms vying for the throne, the Jin Dynasty's southward migration, the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty... Emperors from generation to generation turned into loess, and people who were once familiar died one by one, but Asen was always walking in the world.
And he gradually discovered that whenever the dynasty was out of order and wars broke out, the dragon energy of the earth would be disordered accordingly - Qiongqi entered the palace, chaos reigned, the Tengu ate the sun, the Drought Demon burned the scriptures, the Nilong came out of the river... These strange beasts that only existed in the "Shan Hai Jing" were awakening again and again behind the scenes of history.
Xuanheng's lineage does not enter the court, does not follow the emperor's orders, does not seek fame, and only protects the common people in the world.
But hundreds of years later, Asen discovered that the greatest disaster may never have been those strange beasts.
It was something in his body that was slowly waking up.
