The martial world famous throughout the lower realm for possessing the strongest fighters in the mortal world and scorned in the higher dimensions for the few numbers of martial artists present in the higher dimensions .
For the public ,it is thought that the reason for all this was that the path of martial arts was broken or incomplete leading to lack of breakthrough s to a higher level.
Yet to those above the heavenly realms, a rumor as old as the heavenly realms themselves persisted till this day, rumor of a curse by the heavens themselves, not the heavenly dao,but the heavens themselves.
This was one of the few moments throughout history that the heavens were ever mentioned.
....
At this moment, a young dark skinned and average looking Auron was at the gates of a run down martial sect located in the martial world.
The name of the sect,iron flame sect of the hell valley.
Looking at the rusted gate of the sect with the single snoring guard, he steps forward and calls out ,more like shouts out" thief!, thief!" .
The ball like guard surprisingly jumped up and released an aura enough to scare the living daylights out of any mortal out there .
Upon noticing only a single person present, the guard quickly looked around and in a voice as though he'd been caught doing something wrong ," who are you?, what brings you here."
" I'm Roku, here to join the sect as a disciple.
Senior brother please guide me " hearing the sincere praise of this young man, he couldn't help but smile in a con artist kind of way sending a shiver down Auron's spine.
With in seconds ,in what could only be described as a flash , he had been shown to the test grounds and found to have above average talent earning him a spot in the sect.
As though they were afraid he might run away, the registration took place in what could be called record time with him being shown to his courtyard and given the quickest tours that would astonish even the fastest man a live.
What astonished him the most was the fact that even though he'd targeted the most declined sect in the world, he came to find out that it had a history of over four thousand years and had produced numerous martial grandmasters yet it had fallen on hard times in these last a thousand years leading one to ask as to the reason for the rapid decline of the sect.
What was more baffling was that the sect had a martial master guarding it yet it had still fallen to such a state making leading to the assumption that he is either incompetent or simply injured.
Of course there is another possibility and that is that the external forces pressuring them have enough power to ignore influence and power of the sect, with no respect for the martial arts.
This leads one to the assumption that the force is not a local of the martial world.
Putting the conditions of the sect together with the knowledge of the future, it is clear the end , darkness.
