The Mystery of the Sword’s Shadow

Martial artists across the realm gather their profound energy, all hoping to join one of the four great sects that stand at the pinnacle of the continent. But in today's martial world, are all things still as they once were? The martial world of today traces its roots to the Nine Realms of Swordsmanship, where sword heroes aided the Six Emperors in governing the people. The three ranks of the demon race are nothing like they were in ages past, and treasures weep blood as the land is ravaged! The demon race has risen and fallen over the years, while gods and emperors wage secret wars, reaching out to cover the heavens and stirring up storms of blood and death. Legend has it that a poor-born youth's family helped him enter the imperial service. He answered the emperor's call and set out to fight on the border. By chance, he killed a demon elder and was led astray, then hunted relentlessly. Fortunately, he met several like-minded heroes of the martial world. From then on, the first signs of the Seven Swords began to emerge. Though they faced calamities, they also found good fortune, with powerful figures aiding them in secret. As fate's wheel turned between light and shadow, they ultimately embarked on an extraordinary path to slay the Thunder God!
