Jinmen Yuke

Synopsis

In the late Northern Song Dynasty, the Jurchen people rose to power in the north and established the Jin Dynasty. Subsequently, the Song and Jin Dynasties joined forces to destroy the Liao Dynasty, reclaiming part of the territory of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan Yun. Yet while the Song court and people reveled in the joy of reclaiming their ancestral lands, the Jins were already eyeing the Song with predatory intent. Taoist priest Jiang Feixiong, following his master's orders, descended from Mount Kunlun to the capital. Emperor Huizong commanded him to head the “Bureau of Deified Spirits,” bestowing upon him the title “Golden Gate Immortal.”
