In the heart of the vast Jiang Dynasty, swordsmanship isn’t just a skill—it’s a way of life, a legacy etched into the soul of its people. For generations, warriors have honed their blades and spirits in pursuit of the legendary “Sword God Realm”—a level of mastery so rare, it’s spoken of in awe and reverence.
Over a decade ago, the revered Wuji Sword God stood unmatched—until treachery struck. Ambushed and grievously wounded by his rival, the cunning Changsheng Sword God, Wuji disappeared from the world stage, choosing to heal in the quiet solitude of the mountains. The world believed him lost to time.
But in secret, he raised one final hope—his only disciple, Zhan Yibai.
Now, the boy has grown into a young man. The day has come for him to leave the mountain and walk the path of a swordsman. Before sending him off, Wuji Sword God entrusts Zhan Yibai with his own sword—a blade that once shook empires—and urges him to ascend to the very heights he once reached.
Naïve to the ways of the world but determined, Zhan Yibai soon finds unlikely allies: Jiang Mingyue, the spirited and sharp-witted princess of the Jiang Dynasty, and Li Kuang, the bold and unrestrained second son of the southern prince. Drawn together by fate and ambition, the trio sets their sights on the “Ancient Dynasty Ruins”—a perilous trial said to grant unimaginable growth to those brave enough to enter.
Thus begins Zhan Yibai’s journey—not just to reclaim his master’s lost honor, but to discover who he truly is, in a world where blades are sharp, loyalties are fragile, and legends are born in blood and fire.
