For over a century, the sects of Murim fought against one another all across the Heavenly Realm. Battles between rival schools, fostered by immortals, flooded the land with blood. The power of the Emperor, waxing and waning with the passing of dynasties, could only hold...

Battle is simple.
If you try to stay alive, then you’re going to die.
