[The blurb is temporarily just a teaser. I'll revise it when the story is underway. One of the leads has an unrequited storyline with someone else, but the ending may not have a couple at all.]
The Master takes three disciples, each with a hidden agenda. From the Book of Fate, he learns that a calamity awaits him: his cultivation will be completely lost, he will be helpless to control himself, and his soul will be trapped in his sea of consciousness for years. All he will be able to do is watch the person inhabiting his body being toyed with like a plaything by his three rebellious disciples.
Before the Master can even figure out how a mortal could possess his body, he suddenly loses his connection to it.
In a daze, the Master sees a different expression on the face he has always kept stern and composed.
Half a year later, paper pigeons carry word across the cultivation world: the Lord of the Boundless Sword, the foremost righteous cultivator, whose beauty is like the moon above the clouds and whose temperament is like a flower on a lofty peak, has lost his memory!!
The Master tries to return to his sect under a new identity, but an unseen force stops him.
Heaven's selfish thoughts murmur: My child, I helped you escape by shedding your shell. Please don't try to take your body back. Those people will destroy your Dao heart and steal your fortune.
Theme: Love embraces all under heaven.
