In pursuit of the pinnacle of martial arts, Xu Xing travels across the Myriad Worlds.
The Ming Dynasty: boxing is widely practiced. I’ve heard the court’s young grand secretary has peerless boxing skills and shoulders the fate of the two capitals and thirteen provinces. Can he withstand one punch from me, Xu?
The Northern Song Dynasty: the martial world is powerful. In the Apricot Grove, will Tie Shou reign supreme, his power unmatched, or will the Dragon-Subduing Palm claim victory and stand unrivaled beneath the heavens?
The chaotic final years of the Yuan Dynasty: in the West City and East Island, among Shaolin and Wudang, the Two Schools and Six Paths, the Black List’s mighty warriors and the Dharma King of the Snowy Domain, who can weather the raging tides, turn clouds with one hand and rain with the other?
An age of flourishing Daoist arts: the love of the White Snake, the lovers bound by seven lifetimes of resentment, the clash of Heavenly Demons. A six-zhang golden body guards the great river, while the Two Forms and Dust locks down the grotto-heaven.
A mythic world of mortals: Heaven collapses, the divine seats lie empty. The Dragon-Subduing Arhat falls to the mortal realm, the Baosheng Emperor enters reincarnation, the Jade Emperor’s reincarnation is nowhere to be found, and a demon disguises himself as a monk to mislead the world.
The Sun God seeks immortality, becomes an emperor in *Shrouding the Heavens*, and tempers his primordial spirit to pure yang. With a snap of the fingers, he veils the heavens; he shatters the void to battle the Sacred Body, wields the Three Swords of Pan Huang against imperial weapons, sweeps the forbidden zones and slays the undying, then at last reaches the Other Shore and opens a new heaven.
I set my will beyond the world, determined to attain the Supreme Dao. Pay no heed to the wind rustling through the trees and pattering on the leaves; why not sing as you walk, unhurried?
