The first character visuals are out for the upcoming Chinese wuxia cultivation-themed drama The Immortal Ascension and, as you might expect with the amount of money that has obviously been spent on this, they look beautiful.

The six The Immortal Ascension character visuals start with male lead Yang Yang as protagonist Han Li battling someone, with a second one featuring Gina Jin as Nan Gong Wan cultivating.
