In the early 20th century, the Qing Dynasty was on the brink of collapse, and various warlords fought fiercely, each amassing their own troops, staging one after another of a thrilling battle for dominion. At this time, Lei Daniu (played by Liu Qingyun), the governor of Zhili, recruited soldiers extensively with the help of the unorthodox Liu Kunshan (played by Wu Gang), continuously growing in power, bolstered by heavy troops on the outside and beautiful women on the inside, aided significantly by the ill-intentioned Japanese. This was indeed a time of great fortune for him. Meanwhile, a mysterious magician named Zhang Xian (played by Tony Leung) arrived in the capital, astonishing everyone with his extraordinary skills, and of course, Lei Daniu had long heard of him. Unbeknownst to him, Zhang Xian was a childhood friend of Daniu's seventh concubine, Liu Yin (played by Zhou Xun). Years ago, while Zhang was away for studies, his lover was abducted by Daniu, leaving him with lifelong regret. Furthermore, he belonged to a mysterious organization that was plotting to kidnap Commander Niu. In this tumultuous era, what kind of breathtaking magic will Zhang Xian perform...? This film is adapted from the novel of the same name by Zhang Haifan.
