Martial Arts and Murim manhwas have many things in common. China's long and historical gems called Sects and Martial Arts Clans are introduced and highlighted in every chinese manhwa.
One has to break through the Gates of Life and Death and have no desire of what so ever. As a Kid, So-moon attains the greatest power in the world.
Unlike other manhwas, They are all distinct and you will remember their faces very clearly. Honestly, Bowblade Spirit has one of the best arts style in manhwas.
Martial Ki masters, Swords master , Poison master, and Medical Masters .... You may have heard of them in one of the, Long and diverse martial manhwas. But, Have you heard of Bow Master or Archery Master..?
Hmm..
The Probability of you hearing it is very low... As I myself never came across such title.
That's what great about Bowblade Spirit. The adventure into the unknown and totally unique manhwa.
Let me ask you a question... Who was the greatest warrior in Mahabharata and why?
Guess it...
Many of you may answer, According to the Mahabharat... Arjun was considered as greatest warrior and his speciality was Archery. However, In Reality .. There was someone who was better than Arjun in Archery and as a warrior.
Yes... You may know it.
KARN.
The one who can surpass Arjun in Archery as well as all other Pandav brothers in their respective skills.
Karn could use Bow as well as Sword with same great skills. He has the power of Sun and was disciple of great warrior who conquered the world for generations Parshuram. Parshuram gifted him a Bow named Vijaya, which could never be defeated.
Now, Why did I told you this...?
The Bowblade Spirit has very-very similar protagonist as Karn. It has the very same struggle life too.
It's so similar yet has the taste of Murim worlds. It has action, martial masters, Clans, Great Sects and Also emotions, love and PAIN. I really want to you to watch this manwha.
But, Before that Let me share some insight!
In the world of Martial Arts, Where only the strong will survive. The world gets divided into Light Path and Dark Path. The Dark sects have their own values where Light sects claimed themselves right.
The World was finally at peace once a Man known as the strongest of Dark Path, The Celestial Destruction Blade, Combined all the evil forces into One sect of Paecheon and maintained Peace.
Far from the world's reach, on the Mount Peakto.. Our protagonist, So-moon is getting trained by his grandfather.
His grandfather teaches him their family martial arts of Archery. Archery is recognized as the greatest form of combat power. The target can't see it coming and even if he knew he can't evade it. It can reach beyond one's eyes and can target hundred of miles afar. Nothing is greater than Archery.
So-moon gets trained vigorously as a martial master. He gets thrown into waterfalls and even in a cage of 100 wolves. But, His skills can't be judged by his age since he masters all form of Archery at the mere age of 10.
He learns the Greatest form of spiritual arts, The Heart Sutra Visualization and Even Opens the Triple Alex Flower.

A injured bird gets into their home. It was source of food but gets saved by So-moon. The Bird was a Gyrfalcon, Called the King of Sky. It never betrays it's owner till death. So-moon names it Ironblood.
After training for few more years...
So-moon wants to learn more skills and don't want to stop his training. But, His old man has nothing more to teach. So, he tells about the Eulji family Gate where the greatest skills lies. So-moon goes to the edge and visits the gate which looks like a cave.
He gets a Bow which was made of unknown metal and was heavy compared to its size.
The Cave has three scrolls which were swords skills, which were made by his ancestors. There were all called Peerless Triple blade techniques.
There was a book which described why and how to use these skills. The seventeenth generation of Eulji family, created a Bow style which surpassed all boundaries of martial arts. The Formless Firing. The Bow requires no arrows. One can use his own ki and fire it as an arrow. But, To perform such skills, The Cultivation is hard and comes with a cost. If any immature tries to perform it, they could become crippled or die in an instance.
After training for years, Eulji So-moon finally cuts the scrolls his own skills. He has finally taken over his family skills.
Knowing that, He has learned everything and can significantly called as the World's Strongest.
So-moon comes home and sleeps for days,weeks and months.

The Zhangyoung province is located thousand miles away. Also he also has to return the Book of Heart Sutra which belongs to Shaolin.

His grandpa thought this as an way to teach him the way of real world and how it works.

On the other side, The one who sent his men to kill Gu Yong Poong was his own disciple and next leader of Paecheon, Gwan Pae declares War against the light path who killed their Lord.
