The team Meet the Immortal Leadership team and our Advisors and Partners . LEADERSHIP TEAM Peter "Payhuan" Shiao Founder, Creator, CEO Peter is our Founder and Chief Executive Officer, leading Immortal Studios in creating a new story universe to awaken the hero within everyone and defining a new business model centered around direct user engagement. Peter has a decades long career leading innovative entertainment and media ventures between the East and West, and has been active in empowering underserved communities. Peter’s favorite past time as a boy was reading Chinese Wuxia novels (many of them written by his father Shiao Yi who is an accomplished author in the genre), and drawing these martial heroes he read about. Because of these stories, he aspired to be a modern day Xia, the transcendent martial Knight who mastered themselves, and stood for righteousness and justice in a world of great stakes, poetry, romance and consequence. Peter pivoted from politics to a new career in media as a means of expressing his mission for social transformation through stories. He feels incredibly blessed to come full circle back to his original love with Immortal.

Our Favorite Wuxia Movies Here are some of the favorite Wuxia movies of the Immortal team that we highly recommend you watch. There is a mix of contemporary movies and classics. Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Jackie Chan, Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li appear in many of these amazing movies from legendary and award-winning directors, Ang Lee, Tsui Hark and Zhang Yimou. ​ HERO ( wiki | imdb ) CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON ( wiki | imdb ) SHADOW ( wiki | imdb ) THE ASSASSIN ( wiki | imdb ) ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA ( wiki | imdb ) HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS ( wiki | imdb ) THE GRANDMASTER ( wiki | i mdb ) SWORDSMAN II ( wiki | imdb ) ASHES OF TIME ( wiki | imdb ) MONKEY KING 2 ( wiki | imdb ) NEW DRAGON GATE INN ( wiki | imdb ) THE YOUNG MASTER ( wiki | imdb ) THE 36th CHAMBER OF SHAOLIN ( wiki | imdb ) A TOUCH OF ZEN ( wiki | imdb ) ​ ​If you are new to the Wuxia genre, we hope that you enjoy these videos and that they give you a wonderful introduction to this genre of heroism , m artial arts, fantasy and adventure. If you are already a fan of Wuxia, then you may have watched these already, but you'll probably enjoy rewatching them again and reliving the excitement, and hopefully discover something new to watch. Let us know if you have a Wuxia film that you really like that you think should be added to this list. Wuxia Literature and Cinema While there are many terrific Wuxia films like the ones in our list, in some ways, Wuxia literature has been poorly served by cinematic adaptation. Some films promote style over substance, stripping the novels down to a mere sequence of fights and training montages. Wuxia literature is much more than simply an assortment of battles arranged into a plot. Wuxia is a complicated genre of literature which, standing at the crux of fantasy and historical literature, manages to create an independent identity that has made it one of the most dominant forms of popular literature throughout East Asia.

FILM DESCRIPTION: Taiwanese filmmaker Ang Lee took a break from making Western period dramas to fashion this wild and woolly martial arts spectacular featuring special effects and action sequences courtesy of the choreographer of The Matrix (1999), Yuen Woo Ping. In the early 19th century, martial arts master Li Mu Bai (Chow Yun-Fat) is about to retire and enter a life of meditation, though he quietly longs to avenge the death of his master, who was killed by Jade Fox (Cheng Pei-pei). He gives his sword, a fabled 400-year-old weapon known as Green Destiny, to his friend, fellow martial arts wizard and secret love Yu Shu Lien (Michelle Yeoh), so that she may deliver it to Sir Te (Sihung Lung). Upon arrival in Peking, Yu happens upon Jen (Zhang Ziyi), a vivacious, willful politician's daughter. That night, a mysterious masked thief swipes Green Destiny, with Yu in hot pursuit -- resulting in the first of several martial arts action set pieces during the film. Li arrives in Beijing and eventually discovers that Jen is not only the masked thief but is also in cahoots with the evil Jade. In spite of this, Li sees great talent in Jen as a fighter and offers to school her in the finer points of martial arts and selflessness, an offer that Jen promptly rebukes. This film was first screened to much acclaim at the 2000 Cannes, Toronto, and New York film festivals and became a favorite when Academy Awards nominations were announced in 2001: Tiger snagged ten nods and later secured four wins for Best Cinematography, Score, Art Direction, and Foreign Language Film.

His definitive kung fu and the vivid imagery of Tsui Hark (Peking Opera Blues, Swordsman II) make this a true classic of the genre. A more contemporary take on the evergreen tale of wise kung-fu master and purveyor of justice Huang Fei Hong (Jet Li), OUATIC is set in 1875 China when hostilities between the Chinese and the invading foreigners are simmering to a boil. Huang and his disciples take on the unscrupulous dealers who are trying to entice gullible Chinese into slavery in America and save his Aunt Yee (Rosamund Kwan) who is in danger of being shipped off to be a prostitute. Tsui Hark raises the bar on martial arts epics with OUATIC via imaginative technology and thrilling choreography.

An unambitious painter named Gu (Shih Jun) lives with his mother in the vicinity of an abandoned mansion rumoured to be haunted.

It is a story of action, transformation and mystery, but at its core it is about homecoming. And what’s homecoming without a chance for redemption? And you know what ALWAYS comes with redemption…? KUNG-FU - ok not always. But ours does! We couldn’t be more excited to kick off this limited series, the first in the Immortal interconnected Wuxia content universe. Welcome to THE ADEPT! ​ THE ADEPT is about Amy, a young Chinese-American who runs away from an abusive home, destined to be another orphan street thug. But then she is visited in her dreams by a Shaolin Kung Fu Master, who begins to train her in the wilds of this Dreamscape, preparing her to face an unnamed evil that he'll never speak about. The dreams give her meaning – purpose – the training empowers her – and she learns to cope. But why her? Amy scores tickets too a benefit concert for Ali's favorite singer - Sasha True. An international sensation, famous for catchy lyrics, flashy dance moves and a beat with a killer hook. (Sasha is more than what she seems, and when the going gets tough her "true" colors will be revealed) Then, with no warning, the dreams just stop. And just as suddenly as he came into her life, he's gone. Was he just a figment of her imagination? ​ It’s now been ten years and Amy comes home again, hoping to rekindle the relationship with Ali, the younger sister she once abandoned. Ali has had her own trauma and pain in that time, but she covers it up with a carefree, carpe-diem attitude. If you don't think about your pain, did it ever really happen? Amy scores tickets too a benefit concert for Ali's favorite singer - Sasha True. An international sensation, famous for catchy lyrics, flashy dance moves and a beat with a killer hook. (Sasha is more than what she seems, and when the going gets tough her "true" colors will be revealed) What could possibly derail the reunion of the estranged sisterhood? Bad guys. When a kidnapping attempt targets Sasha, Amy has no choice but to break out her Shaolin skill learned from her dreams. But this is no amateur kidnapping, it's a well-organized attack from a shadowy operation. ​ And then, among the commotion…a surprise. She comes face to face with the Shaolin Master from her dreams. Wu-what indeed. ​ We can’t wait to introduce you to Amy, Ali, Fa Sheng, and Sasha and we’ve got much to unpack over this series. Where has Amy been? Why did the dreams choose her? What is this shadowy organization and how is it connected to the Shaolin Master? And hold up, the Shaolin Master is real?

COMMUNITY Immortal Studios is founded on principles of radical fan engagement. We believe community is critical to process of creating stories and the power of the communities to take these stories to the world. Thus our goal is to cultivate a community of fans that embody the ideals of Wuxia , inspire them to seek their own stories and even take part in the Immortal Storyverse . Here are some of our community programs. ​ AWAKEN YOUR HERO CHALLENGE JOIN US IN BEING A HERO The concept for this TikTok challenge comes from our first comic book title, The Adept , in which the main character, Amy, undergoes years of Shaolin training from a kung fu master – this all happens in her dreams in a place called The Dreamscape. The training empow ers her, inspires her to find her purpose, and…awakens the hero inside of her. Our idea for the campaign is a series of videos in which various people “awaken” from a dream and then demonstrate spectacular talent – as if they too were trained in the Dreamscape with a Shaolin Master.

The Shaolin Phoenix (C) 2004 KungFuMagazine.com. Republished by permission. What is Wuxia? Our Favorite Wuxia Movies Anatomy of a Wuxia Novel Into the Badlands Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon did wonders for the Western kungfu movement. Now everyone is acknowledging this film genre that we have loved so dearly for so long. We all knew kungfu cinema was great cinema. It's so full of soul. Now, finally, the rest of the world is seeing it too. But of course we were there, before this new wave of interest, back in the day... While Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was new sensation for pop culture, we martial arts aficionados have seen this kind of film a hundred times before. It was a throwback to the old "old school" martial arts movies, pre-Shaw brothers, when romantic swashbucklers ruled the silver screen. These movies were called wuxia pian or "warrior-knight films." Wuxia pian were usually based on a popular genre of books known as wuxia xiaoshuo (warrior-knight novels.) Wuxia novels are the pulp fiction and comic books of Asia, packed with quixotic, inspiring legends about great martial arts masters with magic qi powers. Often, these fictional adventures were derived from folk legends about actual famous masters, just like our own tales of Robin Hood or King Arthur. In fact, the majority of period kungfu movies such as Wong Fei Hung, Hung Hay Kwun, Fong Sai Yuk and even Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon are based on classic wuxia stories. Despite their penchants for the absurdly fantastic, wuxia xiaoshuo preserves the spirit of the forefathers and foremothers of our cherished art of kungfu. And buried in those beloved novels remain countless legends about our martial ancestors yet to be translated. ​ One of the many wuxia xiaoshuo heroes so far unsung in English is Gan Fengchi. Gan is recognized in the martial circles as the founder of Bak Sil Lum (northern Shaolin) and Hua Quan (Flower Fist.) Additionally, Chinese readers know his posthumous martial treatise Introduction to Hua Quan. Gan was a great kungfu master and the embodiment of wude, the warrior's code. He was known by the title Jiangnan Diyixia - Jiangnan means south of the river, a reference to southern China and Diyixia means "number one knight." The stories of his adventures are full of the impossible, just like the flying and leaping in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, nevertheless his esteemed legacy remains to this day. The Phoenix versus Plum Flowers and Bulls ​ Gan Fengchi was a native of Ningxian County in Jiangsu Province who lived under the reign of the 4th Qing Emperor Yongzheng (1723-1735 CE.) His given name Fengchi means "phoenix pond." Gan was born with a small, skinny body, not at all what one might expect of a legendary master, but he loved kungfu from the very start and trained assiduously all his life. Through his devotion, he eventually became the layman disciple of a Shaolin monk name Zhao Yuan. Zhao Yuan was originally from the royal family of the previous Ming Dynasty, whose secular name was Zhu Fu. When the Qing overthrew the Ming in 1644, Zhu Fu renounced his family name and became a monk, in hopes of learning Shaolin kungfu to help restore Ming reign. He trained Gan for twelve years. ​ Once, the Jin clan held a big party in honor of Master Gan. The Qing dynasty actually adopted the Chinese name Qing; they were really Manchurian, known as the Jin. As a show of respect, Master Gan sat at the highest seat of honor presented by the Jin head clansman. Everyone was drinking merrily when Master Gan noticed the beautiful flower garden outside on the Jin estate. Gan exclaimed, "Look outside! So many plum flowers are in bloom. We should appreciate their beauty but the window is closed." Without another word, Master Gan blew the window open, using only the qi of his breath. Everyone applauded with amazement. Noticing that the master was in a mood to demonstrate, another guest asked about Master Gan's legendary throwing skills. Gan obliged by instructing a maid to mark several of the plum flowers outside in the garden. He took a piece of napkin, crumpled it up into a tight wad, and flicked it from his seat. He hit every single mark dead on target. ​ Later, after they had finished drinking, the partygoers all decided to take a stroll about the Jin estate. While walking, some teenage shepherds approached them in desperate need of help. Two of their biggest bulls had been fighting all day nonstop. When the party approached, they found the bulls were struggling because they had locked their horns together. Master Gan effortlessly separated the mad bulls and tossed them aside. Both bulls fell into mud so deep that they couldn't get up. Everyone laughed with astonishment. Then Master Gan went down to rescue the hapless bulls. Master Gan versus the Evil Emperor ​ But still, a martial arts master seldom makes his reputation on flowers and bulls. Master Gan was best known for his opposition to the notorious Emperor Yongzheng. Later at that same Jin party was the first time they crossed paths. This was prior to Yongzhen usurping the throne. Before the party, a disciple of Gan named Bai Long Daoren (white dragon Taoist - a nickname) introduced the prince in disguise as Mr. Li. Bai Long told Master Gan that Mr. Li was his boss and had extended his invitation to Gan to return to the capital with him. The disciple praised Li for his generosity and his martial skill, but it was all just a ruse to get Gan to work as a fighter for the Qing. Master Gan agreed to meet Li for dinner at the party given by the Jin clan, which quickly became a test of each other's martial arts. ​ The prince, posing as Mr. Li, went first. He was a master of Shaolin gecko skills. Li placed his back to the wall, focused his qi, and then walked up the wall just like a gecko. Master Gan smiled, and took the same position against the wall. He told Li to hit him in the stomach as hard as he could. Li gathered all his strength and struck. Gan used his qigong skills to flatten out his belly so his body was a thin as paper. When Li punched, it was as like his fist collided with the wall behind Gan. Then Gan used his qi to suck Li's fist into his stomach so it was stuck as if it were glued there. Li was powerless to remove his fist. Gan laughed then loosened his stomach, releasing Li. Later that night, Bai Long confided in Master Gan, revealing Mr. Li's true identity as the prince and his intentions to take the throne. He told Gan that Yinchen (Yongzhen's birth name before he became emperor) wanted Gan as one of his imperial guard, a very illustrious position indeed. Nevertheless, Gan refused. Bai Long begged, but Gan was adamant. Yinchen became very upset and grabbed Gan by the sleeve, but in one quick move, Gan turned and disappeared into thin air. Bai Long and Yinchen searched and searched. Finally, they found him hiding in a closet, using his qi power to stick high up on the wall. Neither Bai Long nor Yinchen could pull him down. Yinchen even used a Lama mantra to try and break the spell (the historical Yongzheng was in fact a devout Buddhist who converted the palace of his birth, Yonghe Gong, into a Lama Temple.) Yinchen was amazed by Gan's power, but he feared that Gan would join forces with the rightful heir to the throne, not him. So rather than lose Gan to his adversary, he drew his gun and shot him, then immediately fled back to Beijing with Bai Long. Guns were already dominant in China during Master Gan's time. ​ The other party guests heard the gunshot and rushed out. Gan emerged from another room, unscathed and laughing. Somehow, the bullet had not injured him; it just blew him into the next room unharmed. The Jin head clansman asked Master Gan why he didn't accept the prince's offer in the first place. Gan replied, "The fourth prince has the look of the emperor. But still, his chin bone sticks out too much, which means he is very selfish, so I do not want to follow him." Master Gan versus the Begging Bowl Monk Gan Fengchi went to live in Nanjing and his reputation for wude and kungfu assured that no one dared make trouble there for some time. But eventually a challenger did come, a monk with a giant begging bowl. The bowl weighed several hundred pounds when filled with offerings and the mischievous monk would use it to block doorways and paths. If someone wanted to get by, they either had to pay the monk toll or move the bowl, but of course, no ordinary person could even budge it. The harassed citizens of Nanjing were powerless to challenge the monk, so they threatened him by saying Master Gan would take care of him. But the monk was undaunted. Gan did not appear, so he ridiculed Gan and publicly challenged him. ​ As fate would have it, Master Gan had fallen very ill and was in no shape to face the monk. Furthermore, when people told him of the challenge, Gan knew immediately this was no ordinary monk. To carry such a huge begging bowl, this monk must be immensely powerful. He must have come looking for Gan with the intention of challenging him. Master Gan continued to avoid the monk so the monk's challenges grew in their offensiveness, but Master Gan was still sick. Then one day, Master Gan sought refuge at a nearby temple to meditate on how to deal with this monk. There the monk appeared, smiling at Master Gan. He said he wanted to present Master Gan with his begging bowl, then immediately lobbed the massive bowl at him. The bowl was filled with sharp coins, but Gan deflected everything with his wide sleeves. Master Gan retaliated by picking up a stone and chucking it at the monk, but due to his illness, his hand failed and he missed completely. Undaunted, Gan got another stone and said, "Since I missed your head, I'll hit your leg." The monk focused on defending his legs, but it was a feint. Gan threw the second stone with all his might at directly at the monk's baldhead. The second stone flew true, cracking the monk deeply on the skull. But the monk was unfazed. Master Gan was shocked. Such a blow would have killed most warriors. This monk's skill was superior then that of Master Gan. Gan humbly bowed down and begged forgiveness. The monk said, "You are uncommon and you favor me. I should return your stone, but I would like to bring it back to present to Zhao Yuan." The monk vanished immediately. Master Gan was worried when he heard his Shaolin Monk master's name, believing he had offended the monk with his trick, but he never heard from him again. Perhaps it was some sort of quality check, to make sure the Shaolin disciple had kept his skills up, but Gan never found out. Master Gan versus the Begging Bowl Monk - the Sequel Emperor Yongzheng summoned Master Gan soon after he took the throne. Yongzheng still wanted to enlist Gan as a bodyguard and Master Gan could not refuse an imperial invite. Besides, he thought he could learn something about the inner circle of the palace for the Ming resistance. So he went, but he found the palace too well guarded for him to look around. The emperor looked at Gan's slight build with contempt and asked, "What skill do you have?" Master Gan said, "Your subject can be a light as a sparrow or as heavy as a stone." Yongzheng ordered Gan to demonstrate. Master Gan focused his qi and then leaped up to perch on a flower bush. Yongzheng was delighted and exclaimed, "How light he is!" Before the words left his lips, Gan jumped down and his legs sank into the tiled floor up to his knees. "Supernatural!" cheered the emperor and he immediately ordered that Master Gan be rewarded. Gan quickly found an excuse then escaped the palace. Emperor Yongzheng never let go of Master Gan after that. In 1729, the seventh year of his reign, Yongzheng had Master Gan arrested by Qing officials. More than 100 others, many of who were also martial arts masters, were taken into custody in connection to a secret anti-Qing religious sect, led by the Monk Yi Nian. Like many such secret societies of China's turbulent history, Monk Yi Nian's followers espoused a doctrine of mysticism and martial arts with an undertone of rebellion. Such movements have always threatened the governments of China, so they are crushed quickly and mercilessly, even to this day. The Emperor versus the Girl from Shaolin According to the wuxia xiaoshou, it was another Shaolin disciple, a teenage girl named Lu Siniang, who assassinated Yongzheng. As common plot device in wuxia stories, young swordswomen are often the most lethal, just like Jen in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Lu Siniang and Gan Fengchi were both outstanding wuxia heroes of that era. Lu's father, Lu Liuliang was a great scholar from Shimen County in Zhejiang Province. He was sentenced to death for criticizing the Qing in his writings. When Yongzheng became Emperor, he further humiliated Lu. He had his body dug up, flogged and destroyed, as well as the entire surviving family killed. Lu Siniang escaped by fleeing to Shaolin Temple. There she became the disciple of a one-armed Shaolin nun named Guang Ci. Guang Ci was actually a Ming princess Chongping, daughter of the last Emperor of the Ming dynasty, Chongzhen (1628-1644.) Like Gan's master, Zhao Yuan, Guang Ci took refuge at Shaolin in hopes to learn kungfu and restore her fallen dynasty. There are two legends about how she lost her arm. The first is that she lost it to Yongzheng in a previous battle. The second is that she lost it to her father, the Emperor. According to the actual history, when the Qing troops began storming the palace, the emperor got drunk. He ran through the palace ordering all the women to kill themselves. While the Empress Zhou did just that, the Emperor killed his concubines and another daughter. In his madness, the Emperor also cut off the arm of one of his daughters before hanging himself on a locust tree. However, whether or not that daughter survived to go to Shaolin remains a mystery. Guang Ci poured all of her skill into Lu Liuliang. When she was ready, Lu snuck into the palace at night for a swordfight with Yongzheng, one-to-one, girl-to-emperor. Yongzheng was a highly skilled martial artist himself, but he was caught off guard by this beautiful young sword-wielding girl in his bed chamber. Lu took advantage and kicked his sword from his hand. The emperor scrambled to his bed to retrieve his pillow sword, but Lu was fast enough to catch him. She cut his head off with one blow, and then escaped to tell her master she was avenged. Wuxia Xiaoshou versus Real Kungfu In our paranoid age of school shootings, hate crimes and terrorist attacks, the ancient fighting systems of kungfu appear arcane for self-defense, so 'reality' is a big issue. In the face of such harsh realities, wuxia tales like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon become appealing escapist fantasies. But in the martial arts, our western 'scientific' perspective can reduce kungfu down to only what works in street combat and defines that as 'real.' All of the rest is disregarded as fake. Such a myopic viewpoint might deride the fantasy fights in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon or read wuxia tales, saying it's not real kungfu because it fails to meet their expectations for a real fight. But if everything is kept in the context of being a story, the issue of reality is absurd. Of course it's not a real fight, it's a story. Expecting reality in such a story is a little silly. With the current trend of movie choreography towards more wire work, martial 'realists' should step back and look at the bigger picture. Was Yongzheng really assassinated by a teenage Shaolin disciple girl? Probably not, but it sure makes a great story. And within that story is something even greater. ​ Beyond snubbing entertainment, the real-versus-fake dichotomy has a much greater cost. Exclusive focus on fighting techniques is quite literally amoral. Such scientific reductionalism sacrifices the most valuable lesson of kungfu - wude, the warrior's code. Unlike the Japanese warrior's code of Bushido, kungfu wude cannot be found in written an ancient etiquette treatise. Much of wude is unspoken, but you know it when you see it. It is buried in our legends and folk tales. It is demonstrated by examples in our books and movies, albeit in fantastic examples. It is what wuxia is all about. And wuxia speaks to everyone, martial artist and non-martial artist, about the values and ethics of the warrior way. The real quest of the warrior is not to learn how to fight, it's to discover when to fight and why. While these stories might not provide the best technique to kick someone's butt, there are far more meaningful lessons in kungfu. We preserve the legacy of masters like Gan Fengchi when we practice Bak Sil Lum or Hua Quan. We also honor them whenever we retell their stories. And just like the kungfu he created, the wuxia tales of Master Gan have valuable lessons that deepen in meaning with every recitation. By Gene Ching (C) 2004 KungFuMagazine.com.

ABOUT An original content studio with an INTERCONNECTED STORY UNIVERSE dedicated to authentic, contemporary WUXIA ENTERTAINMENT Mission Awaken the Hero in everyone! Immortal is the global home for the Wuxia genre About Immortal ​ Immortal is an original content studio dedicated to awakening the hero within each of us. We take a modern approach to the Wuxia tradition to share stories of empowerment, self-discovery and connection with the world around us. ​ The martial arts fantasy genre, or Wuxia , is an embracing one. Though founded in ancient traditions, we believe the genre represents values critical to modern times. While our heroes certainly have "superpowers," these abilities are founded on the concept of qi, and are acquired through self-cultivation, training, willpower, and connecting to Nature/spirit. This means that literally everyone can become a hero. We want to create content that inspires discovery because we believe in each of us is a hero waiting to be awakened or reawakened. ​ Our goal is to take Wuxia to the global mainstream. We want to do this with an authenticity and respect of the tradition that we believe is missing in other representations of the genre and by interacting with contemporary ideas and situations. ​ It is also very easy to overly indulge in the martial component of Wuxia where there is just endless fighting, revenge and violence. Here, while we absolutely are committed to great martial capabilities, we want to “elevate” the genre by including the chivalrous, the self restraint, the anonymity, and transformation of the genre – ultimately the “Xia” archetype that has been missing from Wu (Martial) xia (Hero). ​ ​ We are also founded on principles of radical fan engagement. We believe community is critical to process of creating stories and the power of the communities to take those stories to the world. Thus our goal is to cultivate a community of fans that embody the ideals of Wuxia, inspire them to seek their own stories and even take part in the Immortal Storyverse. ​ Ultimately, we envision Immortal as a lifestyle, an attitude and spirit, dedicated to the bringing about an environment for service, empowerment, representation, empathy, authenticity and enlightenment. Even though we are a company, the underlying reason for our existence is to elevate and unite our world in positive action through stories and culture through. We believe our vision for Wuxia can uniquely accomplish just that. ​ Immortal's Mission Creation of an authentic and transformational Wuxia universe for the world through a vibrant direct to audience approach encompassing content, lifestyles and products. Awaken the Hero (Xia) in Everyone. To cause the remembrance of our inherent nobility as to undertake actions that are of benefit to oneself, and the world at large.

Even though he has found solace as an urban parkour and an alter-ego as “Ironpond” in a virtual fantasy game – his visions of infinite freedom, even immortality – have simply been the unreachable dreams of a confused young man. His growing troubles and the appearance of Jade Swallow , an alluring, ever-present figure who appears– even in his virtual world – and always remains just out of his reach, pushes IronPond Du to face his conviction to pursue a hidden Immortal Cave in real life and in game with his esports team, Brickhouse, that promises answers and powers. All of this coincides with the disappearance of LA Chinatown restauranteur Frank Fat along with many other strange, unexplained deaths happening around the city, and Ironpond Du suddenly finds himself in the middle of a brewing civil war between supernatural warriors who have splintered apart -- perhaps as someone who will tip the scales.
