When Shenzhou first came into being, myriad powers rose across the land. Eight Dustborne Immortals appeared out of nowhere and swept away the world's darkness, but after retiring from their triumph, they left behind the calamity of the Immortal Legacy.
Now a young man receives the Dao's legacy, chooses a Five Elements sword, and embarks on a legendary journey across mountains and seas. The river imp who terrified him in childhood, the Formless Man from the Land of Defying the Dao, the Lord of the Mirror City who stands alone and seeks an equal within the Boundless Realm...
The great river flows east, and all streams return to the sea. Who will rule this world and decide its fate?
