SYNOPSIS:

In 1795 Qing Dynasty China, Qian Xin, a skilled yet self-doubting martial artist, struggles to find his purpose. His life changes forever when he receives a divine vision from the Celestial Dragon, urging him to retrieve a legendary sword and travel through time to stop the demon warlord Xuan Yushen, who has enslaved the ancient region of Emerald Meadows.

Guided by his mentor, Master Feng, and Madame Lin, a sage with a haunted past, Xin retrieves the mystical Sword of the Celestial Dragon. Lan Fengying, a steadfast ally and fellow student harboring secrets of her own, joins Xin on his quest, along with Han Zhufeng, a roguish ex-student seeking redemption. Together, they embark on a treacherous journey through time, facing relentless trials and battling the demon guardians under Xuan Yushen’s command.

As the trio ventures back to 296 BCE, Xin learns to confront his insecurities and embody the virtues of courage and loyalty, while uncovering the truth about Fengying’s origins—she is a demon choosing the path of good, risking her life to oppose her own kind. In a final, harrowing battle at the Celestial Observatory, Fengying sacrifices herself to save Xin. Inspired by her courage, Xin strikes the decisive blow to end Xuan Yushen’s reign of terror, liberating Emerald Meadows

Returning to the present with Fengying’s body, Xin is met by the Celestial Dragon, who rewards their valor by transforming them into immortals. Tasked with spreading virtue and justice, they bid farewell to their academy before embarking on an eternal journey, bound by loyalty, sacrifice, and the promise of a better world.
