Locations
CANG QIONG MOUNTAIN
Cang Qiong Mountain Sect
苍穹山派 “BLUE HEAVENS” MOUNTAIN SECT
Located in the east, Cang Qiong Mountain Sect is the world’s foremost major cultivation sect. The mountain has twelve peaks (branches) with their own specialties and traditions, each run by their own peak lord and united under the leadership of Qiong Ding Peak. The peaks are ranked in a hierarchy, with Qiong Ding Peak being the first peak and Qing Jing Peak being the second. Disciples of lower-ranked peaks call same-generation disciples of higher-ranked peaks Shixiong or Shijie regardless of their actual order of entry into the sect, though seniority within a given peak is still determined by order of entry.
Rainbow Bridges physically connect the peaks to allow easy travel. Disciples are separated into inner (“inside the gate”) and outer (“outside the gate”) rankings, with inner disciples being higher-ranked members of the sect.
