    Why It Should Get Picked Up:

    Ma Bo Yong is a very respected author
    It is really well noted on Douban
    It will soon be adapted in a drama
    Description : (it is a google translation that I modified according to my knowledge of Chinese language)
    A long, long time ago, there was a legend that has never been recorded in the annals of history.

    Wu Ze Tian would have started to built a Buddhist Island hiding plenty of treasures on the Southern Sea, praying to Buddha to give her a long life, but before the fundation of the Buddhist Island was finished, the Empress died.

    Time passes, goes flying, and gradually, there was no longer anyone who knew why the Empress had sent a huge fleet to sea, andthere was no longer anyone anyone who knew where the Buddhist Island is. But the legend about the Buddhist Island had been spreading on the seas for thousands of years...

    This was until the beginning of Ming Dynasty, when the emperor led his navy into the Southern Sea, but was assassinated at sea by his Admiral Zheng. The crown prince who had witnessed this took the jade imperial seal and fled on the treasure ship Qinglong, and has never been heard of ever since. Four years later, Great Ming had new emperor, and the crown prince kept his identity secret, pursuing the ancient legends and embarking on adventure on sea to find the Buddhist Island.

    A brave and fearless young man, on a giant ship to sail between the endless skies and seas, fighting against the winds, the great waves, and the fate!
