Guo Jing Reborn as Linghu Chong

Guo Jing has just left the Lu family manor on Lake Tai when he awakens to find himself over two hundred years in the future—in the Ming Dynasty, now inhabiting the body of Linghu Chong, the chief disciple of Mount Hua. The Song Dynasty is gone, and the Mongol empire that once unified the realm has also crumbled. The events he never lived through have already passed into legend. Armed only with an incomplete version of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Guo Jing finds himself utterly out of place in this treacherous jianghu of deception and intrigue. He charges forward, blunt and unyielding, treading upon Mount Song, suppressing the Sun Moon Sect, and chasing the shadows of bygone legends—until he himself becomes a legend once more. His journey carries him across every lake and sea, through the length and breadth of the northern and southern lands. When he finally ascends to the pinnacle of the martial world and looks back over a century, it all feels like a fleeting dream—as if he might still be waking up gently on the shores of Dongting Lake.
