## Geography

The entire Broad Creed Mountain consisted of eight mountain peaks, all of them smooth as mirrors as well as broad in size. They were not formed naturally, rather having been established by the clan’s experts slicing off the peaks of the original mountains that year.

The sect contains 8 mountain peaks based of the 8 domains of the Eight Extremities World - 4 front peaks, 1 main peak & 3 back peaks:

* Earth Descending Peak 坤地峰 (sect entrance, disciple dormitory)

* Fire Leaving Peak 离火峰

* Thunder Shocking Peak 震雷峰

* *Mountain ? Peak ?山峰* (unknown name)

* Heaven Rising Peak 乾天峰 (main & tallest peak)

* Water Ridge Peak 坎水峰 (a back peak) - Location of the Heaven Sealing Gorge 锁天峡, Broad Creed Mountain's maximum security prison

* Lake Converting Peak 兑泽峰 (top elite seclusion area, a back peak), where the strongest experts of Broad Creed Mountain underwent secluded cultivation.

* Wind Setting Peak 巽风峰 (disciple practice-social area, a back peak), the Setting Wind Peak had freedom of access, with many Broad Creed Mountain disciples active there.

## People

### **Founder:**

* Heaven Establishing Old Man Qiu Yuan:

The founder had excavated remains left behind from the Great Calamity, developing what eventually became the earliest martial legacies of Broad Creed Mountain based on this foundation. His Broad Creed Mountain's Clear Qi Profound Art descend from the Grand Clear Lineage and his Supreme Art, Heavenly Broad Creed Palm, descend from the Jade Clear Lineage. One notable excavated relic was a fragment of the Heavenly Cyclic Palm (Artifact) renown since the founding of Daoism, but this artifact fragment was secretly stolen by the Immortal Gao Han long after and retrieved by the Immortal Yan Zhaoge from him through request.

### **Ancestors:**

* Heaven Shaker Zhan Dongge:

‘Mr Dong’ - sect’s Ancestor Dongge. The exalted Hantian or heaven shaker, Zhan Dongge, was Broad Creed Mountain’s strongest expert. The period during which he was in control of the clan was known as the Golden Age of Broad Creed Mountain. The peak martial artist Zhan Dongge was the strongest expert in the entire Eight Extremities World during his era, someone who could look down on all the outstanding heroes. Likewise, his Broad Creed Mountain was also undisputedly the number one Sacred Ground that looked down on the rest of the world. He was the creator of one of the 3 Supreme Arts, the Immeasurable Heavenly Sabre. Yuan Zhengfeng's Senior Apprentice Uncle.

Unfortunately, when Zhan Dongge and Broad Creed Mountain were at their pinnacle, the world underwent a shocking change. Over the endless eastern sea of the Eight Extremities World, a crack suddenly appeared in the heavens themselves. Between another flame devil world and the Eight Extremities World, a passageway had formed.

* Heaven Diviner Zhan Xilou:

He was the Exalted Hantian Zhan Dongge’s brother, and also the one who succeeded him as the next Clan Chief. He was the creator of one of the 3 Supreme Arts, the Limitless Heavenly Sword

Yuan Zhengfeng’s Master, Yan Di’s Grand Master, and also Yan Zhaoge’s Great Grand Master, was precisely the Chief of Broad Creed Mountain following the exalted Heaven Shaker Zhan Dongge, the Heaven Diviner Zhan Xilou.

### **Clan Chief**

**Heaven Equalling Yuan Zhengfeng** - Yan Zhaoge’s Grand Master, Broad Creed Mountain’s number one expert. He was a Transcending Mortality Martial Grandmaster at the beginning of the story. He succeeded his Master **Zhan Xilou** as Chief. His successor is Heaven Trampling Yan Di (c. 315-1543). Heaven Obstructing Peng Xu Fei (c. 1543+) is Yan Di's successor.

### **Chief of Eight Extremities World Branch**

Feng Chi - Father of Yan Di's alchemy disciple Feng Moyang and is Yan Di's friend. Retired after the Eight Extremities World Branch was permanently closed to become an ancestral worshipping location.

### Grand Elders

**Xin Dongping** - First seat elder of the martial repository, who had competed with Yuan Zhengfeng for the position of Clan Chief in the past.

**He Ning**

**Zhang Kun**

### Broad Creed Three Heroes

In terms of rank, he was equal to the Eastern Region’s Disciplinary Elder, but in terms of authority and power, he was far stronger. Broad Creed Mountain’s current Clan Chief’s eldest direct disciple. He is a late Essence Talisman stage before having turned middle-aged.
2. Fang Zhun, the 'Hidden Dragon'. Next was Yan Zhaoge’s second apprentice-uncle, the First Seat Elder of Broad Creed Mountain’s Assignment Hall.

as well as grown up together. Son of Elder Feng Chi

## Techniques

### Eight Extreme Arts 太上八极

Of the six great Sacred Grounds, Broad Creed Mountain was the most erudite and all-rounded, possessing all the various styles of martial arts that were. Just from style and type alone, it was very hard to find an existence that completely countered the Broad Creed martial arts.Whilst facing off against others, Broad Creed Mountain martial practitioners also saw the greatest change in their combat styles.

As someone once said, “Countering Broad Creed is hard, Broad Creed countering is easy.”Wanting to counter Broad Creed Mountain’s martial arts through style was very difficult, as if the Broad Creed Mountain martial practitioners had cultivated extensively and deeply enough, they could actually vary their styles to counter their opponent. Thus, in the eyes of others, Broad Creed Mountain martial practitioners and their martial arts had become the definition of crafty, being extremely wily as they specifically looked for the weak points of their opponents to make their moves on, in effect themselves creating the situation of bullying the strong with the weak. **c. 128**

## Rules

### Attire

According to Broad Creed Mountain’s rules, all normal disciples would have to wear **white robes**.

For innately gifted disciples, after their cultivation reached a certain realm, they would be
rigorously tested by the clan. If they passed, they would wear **blue robes** instead, and, being considered Chose amongst the disciples, would be nurtured by the clan, like Sikong Qing.

At a level above that, like Yan Zhaoge, their **blue robes would be lined with a black trim**. Any disciples at this level would be considered core disciples of the clan, and would have a greatly different position from the other disciples. Each core disciple would wield considerable influence—correspondingly, while their privileges and prestige could be considered the highest, their numbers were also the lowest.

### Rewards

When a direct/core disciple reaches the Xiantian Martial Scholar stage, he or she is rewarded a personalized low-grade Spirit Artifact

### Discipleship

Only Broad Creed Mountain disciples who have reached the Martial Grandmaster realm can begin accepting disciples. However, all disciples are bound by the clan rules.

### Elders

The Elders are divided into Grand Elders, First Seat Elders, Principal Elders and Acting Elders.

Grand Elders are Elders of the same generation as the current/retired Chief of Broad Creed Mountain.

### Chief

Each Clan Chief of Broad Creed Mountain must be given a title possessing 'Heaven', since the sect's founding.
