This is a world of Qi Refiners.
The imperial court has fallen, and the Hundred Schools hold sway. The sixteen provinces thrive in a glorious age, while beneath the Mechanism City, ghosts roam by night.
Airships, puppets, demons and spirits, creatures of mountains and seas; divine arts, talismans, curses and Qi Refining techniques!
A young man seeks the Dao in his dreams, studies the classics of the Hundred Schools, nurtures his vital essence, refines his soul, vies for inheritance and establishes his own tradition, entering sainthood through the sword.
