Synopsis

During the end of the Warring States period, Jing Ke failed in his attempt to assassinate King Zheng of Qin. Jing Ke entrusted his son, Jing Tian Ming, to the world’s best swordsman, Ge Nie to avoid being killed by the King of Qin. Along the border of Qin, in Waning Crescent Valley, Ge Nie singlehandedly defeats 300 Qin soldiers. The angry King orders that both are to be killed. Under the guidance of Yin Yang School’s Dong Huang Tai Yi, Minister Li Si went to look for Wei Zhuang, Ge Nie’s Sect Brother. Wei Zhuang’s swordsmanship is superior but is always below Ge Nie’s. Wanting to prove to be the number one swordsman in the world, Wei Zhuang agreed to the minister’s request. Little do they know that they have fallen into Dong Huang Tai Yi’s trickery. When Jing Tian Ming was born, Yin Yang School secretly planted in his body the Jade Evil that is part of a huge scheme. While escaping, Ge Nie and Tian Ming meet a group of Mohist sword experts as well as descendant of Chu Dynasty, Xiang Shao Yu and Mohist maiden, Gao Yue. As fate has it, together they were led into the world’s final stronghold, Mohist’s Mechanism City. The Mechanism City is hidden between towering mountain peaks assembled together by Mohists’ profound knowledge on machinery. It is the final stronghold of anti-Qin forces. It is also Mohist disciple’s last refuge. Faced with the impregnable Mechanism City, Zhao Gao uses Wei Zhuang’s resentment and making him believe he can have his dream of rights and status as long as Prince Hu Hai gets the throne to goad him to attack the fortress. In order to seize the Mechanism City, King Zheng sends a massive group of elite troops and Wei Zhuang found the head of Gongshu clan, Gongshu Chou who has been Mohists enemy for generations. The Mechanism City’s tight defenses has never been challenged before. Wei Zhuang’s swordsman assassins were also dispatched. Inside Mechanism City, an epic battle ensues.
