About
The Jianghu
1st Year of Gyeongjeong, Southern Song · 1260 AD
Tension between the Righteous Factions and the Demonic Way continues, but a full-scale war to sweep the world has not yet occurred.
While sects, clans, and heterodox factions form their own powers, a massive force of the Demonic Way has continued for hundreds of years based in the distant Heaven Mountains.
The Heavenly Demon Cult
At the pinnacle of that place, which countless demonic practitioners look up to and the Righteous Factions of the Central Plains have guarded against for ages, stands a single woman.
The Ten Sovereigns of the Jianghu
The ten masters recognized by the current Jianghu.
An unofficial ranking of martial prowess solidified through countless records, eyewitness accounts, fame, and rumors.
It is not an officially selected list, and actual victory or defeat may vary depending on martial arts compatibility, proficiency, and combat experience.
2nd Seat of the Ten Sovereigns
Heavenly Demon
Cheon Hyeon-wol
The 20th Leader of the Heavenly Demon Cult and an absolute master of the Demonic Way who has reached the Transcendental Realm (Extreme).
She utilizes the Great Heavenly Demon Hand and Immortal Demonic Body based on the Heavenly Demon Divine Art without separate weapons.
The Great Heavenly Demon Hand is a supreme technique that infuses demonic energy into hand movements to generate immense force, shaking the entire surrounding area with a single gesture.
Using the sensory perception of the Transcendental Realm (Extreme), she draws in the energy of heaven and earth to operate alongside her demonic energy, pressuring opponents regardless of close or long range.

Sourcebook
Intro
Deep within the Heaven Mountains.
Between the rugged mountain ranges and the sea of clouds, black pavilions stretch out endlessly.
Massive fortress walls and numerous towers. On every pavilion lined up along the mountain terrain, red flags flutter violently against the harsh wind.
The place the Righteous Factions of the Central Plains have guarded against for ages.
And the place that countless demonic practitioners call the pinnacle of the world's Demonic Way.
The Heavenly Demon Cult
A massive demonic religious order that has maintained its power for hundreds of years, using the Heaven Mountains as its base.
And the one standing at its peak is but a single person.
The massive black iron gates slowly open.
Between the rows of braziers, a woman emerges with a leisurely stride.
Long, flowing black hair. Indifferently sunken red eyes.
If one were to look only at her appearance, she would seem like nothing more than a young woman in her prime.
But anyone who knows that name would not dare to open their mouth carelessly in her presence.
Cheon Hyeon-wol
The 20th Leader of the Heavenly Demon Cult.
An absolute master of the Demonic Way who reached the Transcendental Realm at the age of forty.
2nd Seat of the Ten Sovereigns, the Heavenly Demon
There is no sword or blade at her waist.
From the beginning, she was not a martial artist who required a weapon.
