The Central Plains dynasty is built on Confucianism and holds Daoism in the highest esteem. In the Northern Wastes, demons and barbarians eye the Central Plains hungrily. In the Western Regions, Buddhists and shamans run rampant. The Western Chu is also poised to make a move. The southern frontier is in turmoil, with the Demon Cult reigning supreme. In the Eastern Sea, aquatic clans vie for power, ruled by the merfolk.
Immortal Yuan of the Daoist sect has withdrawn from the world. The Wine Sword Immortal, Li Taibai, lets wine fill his guts as his sword roars across the Nine Provinces. National Preceptor Ji Xiyao cleaves Mount Tian with a single stroke.
The Buddha sits serenely on Spirit Mountain, chanting sutras, while the demon clan's saintess gazes at the moon in her cave and attains enlightenment.
Outside Martial Emperor City, the Sword God stood alone with his sword, holding back an army of six hundred thousand northern barbarians for sixty years.
