Although surrounded by the superstitions and traditions of an ancient culture, the people of China find through Lao-Tse the clear spiritual strength to overcome the belief in demons which holds them in fear and doubt. By working as an advisor to the Emperor and traveling throughout ancient China, Lao-Tse is able to bring to the vast realm a firm, unwavering path to the recognition of the Sublime One. At last, peace and upbuilding are possible within the diverse empire - if only the people will hold on to the spiritual teachings brought to them.
