Jun Jie is sent, alongside his older brother Qiang Wu, to the City of Light for the long-awaited Ceremony of the Seven Swords.
According to an ancient prophecy, only the chosen will be able to wield the sacred weapons forged by the gods. Together with the heirs of the great clans, Jun Jie must face the trials devised by Grandmaster Liu to determine who will inherit the Five Golden Swords-and who will be entrusted with one of the two most powerful blades of all: Obsidian.
While in the City of Light, Jun Jie meets Liu Shi Liang, the Grandmaster's son and the wielder of the Agate Sword. Unaware that their paths crossed years before, Jun Jie finds himself irresistibly drawn to the austere yet compassionate young man who, unlike everyone else, treats him with unexpected kindness.
As the two grow closer through relentless training, harsh punishments, love potions, and encounters with mythical creatures, their bond deepens into something neither of them can deny.
Determined to keep them apart, Grandmaster Liu opposes their growing friendship at every turn. But Jun Jie cannot shake the feeling that the Grandmaster's hostility hides a far deeper secret.
Meanwhile, a far greater danger looms over the ancient lands. The City of Fire is spreading fear and destruction across the surrounding villages through a dark power believed to have vanished alongside the Demonic Clan-the Clan of the Dark Sigil. It is the very same power that, for reasons unknown, has dwelled within Jun Jie since childhood.
Who will be chosen to wield the Five Golden Swords?
Who will inherit the Obsidian Sword, whose fate is forever bound to that of the Agate Sword?
And when the darkness rises once more, will the chosen be able to stop it before the world is consumed?
