All things under heaven possess a spirit. They are divided into yin and yang and belong to the Five Elements. By borrowing the power of all things, one can transform it into astral energy and wield it as one's own. Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth generate and overcome one another.
One peerless martial arts fanatic broke through three levels of astral energy in a single night, unleashing a storm of bloodshed across the martial world.
In the end, the tiny city of Bayu turned the fates of Tianchi and the Martial Sect upside down, indirectly affecting three infants as well. The three had their lives, names, families, family feuds, and circumstances exchanged, their entire lives switched, right up to the moment their lives were exchanged.
Sixteen years later, the three met and became the closest of friends.
A phantom city that appears only on nights when the moon shines: its form cannot be seen.
The birth-curse wielded by the nine surnames of the Li family in the Jiang Valley: its marvels cannot be observed.
The four strange beasts guarding the borders of Qilin Valley: their edge cannot be avoided.
The art of controlling corpses with silver spider silk in the Puppet Cave: its might cannot be resisted.
If the obsession with revenge that has endured for half a lifetime turns out to be against oneself, what then?
If giving up everything could keep her safe, would you do it?
If only the dead can break through the Five Elements astral energy, what then?
If you could start over on this same path, would you still keep walking it?
If, many years from now, I still remember that we were the closest of friends?
