Manhwa like Myst, Might, Mayhem: 4 picks for the same author, a deeper ensemble wuxia, a completed revenge arc, or the murim genre pairing.

TL;DR: Manhwa like Myst, Might, Mayhem: 4 picks. Absolute Sword Sense from the same author, Chronicles of the Heavenly Demon for a completed genre benchmark, Return of the Blossoming Blade for a deeper ensemble, Nano Machine for the real search pairing readers already make.
Manhwa like Myst, Might, Mayhem split by what the Season 1 hiatus leaves you wanting. Jeong's transformation into the Scythe Demon is tightly, deliberately focused: a revenge arc with almost no room for anything outside his own path. That focus is the series' strength and its limit. Readers who want more of exactly that focus, a fuller world around the protagonist, or just something to read while Season 2 stays unscheduled all want different things from this list. This guide splits the picks by that exact want, not by a generic "if you liked X" list. Each entry below states plainly what it gives you and what it doesn't.
Absolute Sword Sense (WEBTOON, 7.2/10, ongoing, 186 chapters). Hanjung Wolya wrote the original story for both series. The premise is different, a regression structure rather than Myst, Might, Mayhem's straight revenge arc, but readers curious what else this author has built get a direct line to compare against Jeong's story. It's also actively updating, unlike the series it's being compared to right now. Anyone searching manhwa like Myst, Might, Mayhem specifically for more of this author's voice should start here first.
For where this pairing sits inside the wider regression-manhwa field:

Chronicles of the Heavenly Demon (Tappytoon, 7.8/10, completed at 252 chapters). Myst, Might, Mayhem's own review already names this the genre's benchmark for wuxia revenge with a fuller political and martial world underneath the protagonist's rise. If Season 1's tight focus on Jeong worked for you but you want more world alongside the revenge structure, and a finished story besides, this is the direct next step.
Return of the Blossoming Blade (WEBTOON, 9.1/10, ongoing, 176+ episodes, Season 3 active). The deeper-ensemble answer specifically. Myst, Might, Mayhem's Season 1 keeps almost everything oriented around testing or opposing Jeong; side characters fade once their conflict with him resolves. Return of the Blossoming Blade builds out a fuller cast across a much longer active run, the wuxia world-building Season 1 doesn't have space for yet.
None of these four replicate the specific tight, single-protagonist focus that makes Myst, Might, Mayhem's Season 1 work. Absolute Sword Sense shares the author but runs a different structure. Chronicles of the Heavenly Demon and Return of the Blossoming Blade both trade that tightness for a fuller world, which is the point of recommending them, but it means neither is a direct substitute for what Season 1 actually does. That's a fair trade for most readers. A tight revenge arc is hard to sustain across a long run without either padding it out or ending it. These picks solve that problem in different ways: one finishes the story, one widens the cast, one shares the author's hand. None of them fake being Myst, Might, Mayhem.
Nano Machine (WEBTOON/Kakao, 8.1/10) deserves its own mention here since real searches pair it with Myst, Might, Mayhem directly. It's not pure wuxia revenge, the system-interface and cultivation mechanics put it closer to murim-adjacent system fantasy, but the shared shape (a protagonist who starts weak and builds power through an outside advantage) explains why readers keep asking about both together.
For how wuxia, murim, and xianxia actually differ as genre labels, including where Myst, Might, Mayhem and Nano Machine each fall:
