The Nine Extremes Meridian Treasury

Chen Jiu was an orphan abandoned beside a filthy ditch. Growing up, his master always warned him: Never let anyone see the birthmark beneath your collarbone. He never understood why, until the night his master was brutally killed. The mysterious organization Candle Dragon Society tracked him down, following the scent of his birthmark. Overnight, he went from an unknown feng shui apprentice to a target hunted by every faction. Cornered with nowhere to run, the Yellow Emperor's bloodline, dormant within Chen Jiu for twenty years, unexpectedly awakened. The power of dragon veins from the ancient past roared inside him. Only then did he learn that his birthmark was no curse, but the seal of the Human Emperor. The true battlefield is not in the human world. Beneath the skyscrapers of modern cities and deep underground lie the secrets of China's five thousand years of dragon veins. International powers, ancient clans, and reclusive sects are all fighting over the same thing: the “Ninefold Vein Treasury,” which can control the feng shui of the world and reshape its order. And the only key to opening the treasury is Chen Jiu's blood. From a street child fighting wild dogs for scraps to an unparalleled powerhouse who treads upon dragon veins and ascends to the throne of the Human Emperor... “They say I'm an ill-starred omen, for nine is the ultimate number, and extremes must reverse.” “But I'll show them that nine is the will of heaven.”
