The old era of the demonic clan began almost 2500 years ago, Lin ShiWu was the not only the first demonic cultivator, but the first person ever to discover the arts of cultivation. The eroding sun cultivation technique was the discovered by him. At first he refused to share his transcendent knowledge with the world, but he soon realised that a person alone cannot proceed to make a definite change. So he started taking in disciples and made the first ever clan. Since the method of cultivation used was a demonic method, the clan came to be known as a demonic clan.
