To reach the pinnacle of martial arts, Xu Xing travels throughout the Myriad Worlds.
In the Ming Dynasty, boxing is widely practiced. They say there's a young grand councilor at court whose supreme boxing skills uphold the two capitals and thirteen provinces. Can he withstand a single punch from me, Xu?
In the Northern Song, the martial world is powerful. In the Apricot Grove, who will prevail: the Iron Hand, unrivaled and true to his principles, or the Dragon-Subduing Fist, supreme and unmatched beneath the heavens?
Amid the chaos at the end of the Yuan, who can stand firm as seas surge and clouds rise, turning their hand to wind and their palm to rain? The Western City and Eastern Island, Shaolin and Wudang, the two factions and six paths, the Black List's heroes, and the Dharma King of the snowy mountains all vie for supremacy.
In an age of flourishing Daoist magic, the White Snake's romance, seven lifetimes of resentment, and demonic stars colliding unfold. A six-zhang golden body guards the great river, while the Two Forms and Dust Formation seals the grotto-heavens.
In a mythic human world, Heaven has collapsed and the divine seats lie vacant. The Dragon-Subduing Arhat falls to the mortal realm, the Great Emperor Baosheng enters reincarnation, the Celestial Emperor's reincarnation is nowhere to be found, and demons disguise themselves as monks to deceive the world.
Seeking immortality through The Yang God, becoming an emperor in Shrouding the Heavens, refining the primordial spirit to pure yang, and covering the heavens with a snap of the fingers: he shatters the void to battle the Sacred Body, wields the Three Swords of Panhuang against imperial weapons, sweeps through the forbidden zones and slays the undying, then finally reaches the Other Shore and opens a new heaven.
“I have resolved to surpass the world and must attain the Supreme Dao. Pay no heed to the rain beating through the trees; why not sing as you walk at ease?”
