Hundreds of years ago, the great war between the Demon Cult and the Righteous Cult tore Shenzhou apart, leaving both sides devastated and the land in chaos. On the night of a wedding ceremony, an assassin attacks, and a young woman is abducted — found later, unconscious, in the Nightmare Holy Cult's compound. What follows: the collapse of a fragile three-faction peace agreement, renewed hostility between rival sects, and the Demon Cult beginning to move again. The surviving sects create the Canglong Temple as a unified command against the Demon Cult — but can they hold together under the temptation the enemy now offers? The decisive battle has arrived, and the fate of what remains falls to a new generation willing to fight for it.
