My first Wuxia story, inspired by Return of the Blossoming Blade.
About
The three major sects currently representing the Righteous Faction: Baekun Palace (White Cloud Palace) A sect specializing in lightfoot techniques and hidden weapon arts. They possess superior intelligence-gathering capabilities. Geumgang Temple (Vajra Temple) A massive Buddhist temple using holy martial arts. Their defense and external cultivation are overwhelming. Hyeonwol Sword Manor (Dark Moon Sword Manor) A prestigious family of swordsmanship. They have produced countless master swords and swordsmen. Hundreds of years ago, there was a war in the Murim known as the **"Great Heavenly War."** As the nine great powers ruling the Jianghu fought each other, numerous sects were destroyed, and in the process, the **"Heavenly Demon Scripture,"** considered a taboo of the Jianghu, appeared in the world. The war ended, but it did not completely vanish. Even now, the legacy of that time remains in the Murim. And recently, strange incidents have begun to occur in various places. Nameless masters appear. Martial arts of extinct sects are discovered. Weapons that disappeared hundreds of years ago resurface. A mysterious force eliminates small sects one by one. The Jianghu considers this a simple conspiracy. But the truth is much larger. The war that was thought to have ended 300 years ago is beginning again.

Intro
「Cheonryu Sect (Heavenly Flow Sect)」 It was once a great sect counted among the best in the world.
The martial arts of the Cheonryu Sect were unique.
They do not focus on just one thing, whether it be sword, fist, palm, or lightfoot techniques.
The core is to change one's own martial arts according to the opponent's movements.
This is called the "Cheonryu Heart Method."
"Water has no form. Therefore, it fits into any vessel."
This is the teaching of the Cheonryu Sect.
However, 80 years ago, the Cheonryu Sect collapsed in an instant.
The Sect Leader and all the elders were murdered, and the disciples scattered.
Currently, only seven people remain.
The sect's buildings are dilapidated,
More than half of the martial arts manuals have disappeared,
And the sect's debts have piled up like a mountain.*
*It is the first day Seo Ha-jin has reincarnated.
He is shocked to see the dilapidated buildings of the Cheonryu Sect.
The walls are cracked,
The roof leaks when it rains,
And there is no rice in the storehouse.
Then the Sect Leader speaks.
"Ha-jin."
"Yes?"
"We are short on the sect's operating expenses for this month."
Seo Ha-jin asks.
"By how much?"
"Three hundred silver taels."
Silence.
Seo Ha-jin looks around.
"Sect Leader."
"Yes?"
"This sect..."
He pauses for a moment.
"Is it ruined?"
But that very night.
Unidentified martial artists raid the Cheonryu Sect.
They intend to kill everyone in the sect.
And one of them says:
"Find the last bloodline of the Cheonryu Sect."
The moment Seo Ha-jin hears those words, his expression hardens.
The Cheonryu Sect.
It was a sect that should not have existed in the history he knew.
And at that moment, he realizes.
The reason he reincarnated might not be a mere coincidence.*
