## History and Plot

Five hundred years ago, the Sword Demon was the 1st Elder of the Demonic Cult and served Cheon Mu Hui, the 7th Lord of the Demonic Cult, and along the lord was one of the Five Strongest Masters of their time. Cheon Mu Hui then took a pilgrimage according to tradition but unfortunately were assassinated by the Blade God along with his companions. This caused a massive debacle to the cult because the secret of Cheon Ma's Sword Technique died with Cheon Mu Hui and there were no written records of the technique since it was transmitted orally.

With the Lord's death at the time, it was apparent that Blade God was targeting the Five Strongest masters of the Wulin. The Lord's only child, Cheon Mu Hwa, was an eight-year-old girl, so the Council Elder appointed him as the regent Vice-Lord. Sword Demon was an accomplished leader, and he brought the cult under control. After successfully stabilizing it, he entered the Detention Center that is only for the Cheon Family.

It was in order to restore Cheon Ma's Sword Technique that he desperately attempted to deduce it, but without the necessary breathing technique and the energy flow, he failed to revive the lost technique. But despite failing to revive the original technique, he created another version of Cheon Ma's Sword Technique after analyzing it and adding his own realizations and decided to teach that to future Lords, which is known as the Heavenly Demonic Sword Technique.

However, he was worried and assured that the Blade God might come after him, so he began to train. He was aware that the Blade God's techniques contained unimaginable power, so he took the five sapphire monoliths engraved with markings of Cheon Ma's Sword Technique as a reference. He copied the sword markings in a separate book, and with the permission from the Council Elders, he began to train a sword skill to counter Cheon Ma's Sword Technique. Over a period of five years, he practiced by slashing the sapphire monoliths leaving the traces of Destructive Sword Technique's formations and used it as the base to successfully create the Twenty Four Demon Sword Art. Meanwhile, Blade God killed four of the Five Strongest of the Wulin, leaving him the last.

Eight years after Cheon Mu Hui's death, he eventually fought the Blade God for three days and three nights, losing his right arm in the battle. Although it is claimed that the battle ended in a tie, the truth was that Blade God disappeared in the middle of the fight. Due to losing an arm and exhausting his life energy, before stepping down from Vice-Lord position, he then founded the Demonic Academy in order to protect Cheon Ma's legacy to be coveted by greedy Council Elders and in the hopes of seeking a person who will master the true Sword Force of the Heavenly Demon from Cheon Family as well as deduce the secrets of the Blade God's Extreme Art. After his death, his right arm was preserved in the underground floor of the library, to help experts deduce the secret of Blade God's techniques.
