Pixue Realm

**Acupoint Opening** (辟穴, *pixue*) realm is the sixth layer of a martial artist. It consists in opening one's acupoints. It is a very important realm as the number of acupoints one opened during this realm is directly related as how far one can go in the martial path. An acupoint unlocked will increase the cultivator’s strength by 1 cauldron.

## Stages

* Primary stage - 1-18 Acupoints
* Intermediate stage - 19-36 Acupoints
* Advanced stage - 37-54 Acupoints
* Peak - 55-72 Acupoints

## True Stages

* Primary stage 1-27
* Intermediate stage - 28-54
* Advanced stage - 55-81
* Peak - 82-108

## Influence of True Essence

Due to low purity of true essence that most people possessed and incorrect sequence they opened their acupoints in, the cultivation of most people stops progressing after opening 30-40 acupoints and the only way for them to grow stronger is to breakthrough to 7-dan Profound Connection.

Thus, in some Kingdoms, such as the Tianxuan Kingdom, the stages classification changed:

* Primary stage - 1-10 Acupoints
* Intermediate stage - 11-20 Acupoints
* Advanced stage - 21-30 Acupoints
* Peak - 31 and above Acupoints

In this classification, as long as one opened 31 and above acupoints, regardless of whether it was 31 or 72, they were all considered Open Acupoint peak.

Wang Ying

* Manhwa
* Novel

She is **Zhang Xuan**'s **1st Direct Disciple**. She became his student in the Hongtian Academy.

## Background

She is the daughter of the clan head of Wang Clan, Wang Hong. Her legs were injured for a significant period of time before it was healed by Zhang Xuan. Zhang Xuan imparted his Heaven’s Path Movement Art, Heaven’s Path Leg Art and Heaven’s Path Golden Body to her.

She blushed easily when speaking with others, but she was actually a very determined individual once she set her mind to something.

She joined the Spirit Awakener after her overwhelming result when a Spirit Awakener tested her aptitude for spirit awakening and got the result of 11, which was the same level as spirit awakener founder. She then managed to enchant the Spirit Awakener Mountain, meaning that she became the guild leader of the entire Spirit Awakener Guild.

She broke through to the Void Shattering Realm (Ancient Sage 4-dan) with the help of Zhang Xuan, who also gave her the Gold Source Cauldron.

A while after Zhang Xuan broke through into the Forsaken Continent/ Azure, she followed along with the rest of his direct disciples. In a very short amount of time, she then broke through all the way from Ancient Sage 4-dan to Heavenly High Immortal (Immortal 3-dan), after which she breaks through into the Semi Divinity Realm (Immortal 4-dan) with help and Aura of Divinity from Zhang Xuan.

She then (with Zhang Xuan and his other direct disciples) enters into Firmament. Shortly after her arrival, when she enters the Celestial Mountain to search for some Aura of Divinity and she ends up absorbing the Aura of Divinity left behind by a God Monarch, which rings the Bells of Conferred Kings, and so that God Monarch comes and takes her in as a disciple.
Empire Alliance

The Empire Alliance is basically a power consisting of multiple organizations, namely the Eight Conferred Empires and several smaller Sage Clans.

Poison Hall

* Poison Hall refers to the Poison Master Guild
* Poison Masters are adept in utilizing poison. Often, their means can get through the guard of others, inducing massive fear against them. Reviling their underhanded means, they are classified in the Lower Nine Paths. On the other hand, due to their fearsome means, countless experts of the continent allied together to deal with the Poison Master Guild. Back then, when the guild was destroyed, countless poison masters died in the ordeal. Afterwards, even though they had managed to pass down their heritage, in fear of the same thing occurring to them once more, they dared not appear in the world. As a result, they secretly formed the Poison Hall and hid amid the mountains and rivers. This is precisely the reason why even though there are poison masters, they are hard to find within the kingdom.
Prolonged Longevity Realm

**Prolonged Longevity** (增寿, *zengshou*) realm is the first layer of Transcendent Mortal. In this realm, the cultivator lifespan is increased from 100 years to 200 years. As a Transcendent Mortal expert, a 1-dan Prolonged Longevity realm cultivator can make use of the surrounding environment to gather spiritual qi for oneself to use, increasing their combat strength.

Transcendent Mortal expert, although has the support of the world's spiritual qi, has the limit strength one can exert. In the first layer Increasing Longevity realm the limit is 100,000 cauldrons strength. Therefore this realm is also called Hundred Thousand Huge Strength (十万巨力, *shiwanjuli*).

In this realm, although the strength remains 100,000 cauldron, to every small stage the expert breakthrough, their lifespan is increased in 50 years, thus a Prolonged Longevity peak expert has 350 years of lifespan.

## Stages

* Primary stage - 200 years of lifespan

Apothecary Pills

Pillars are forged by apothecaries, using herbs, cauldrons and flames in Apothecary Guild. Forging a pill is a very complex and complicated action, which requires focus and skill of the apothecary, and to assist, the apothecary uses a forging technique, for certain types of pills there is a suitable technique for their forging.

Pills are divided into 9 degrees, as well as ranks of occupation, this division determines the work area for each apothecary where a 1-star apothecary is advised not to forge second degree pills, except in the presence of an apothecary 2 -star or more effected, because of the danger of cauldron explosion, the higher the grade of the forged pillar rises, the higher the quality requirement of the herb used, and for the manipulation, melting and melting of these grass, requires a flame temperature higher, therefore more control of flame and zhenqi is needed, so the criterion of cultivation realm is so strict.

## Qualities of Pills

Pills are classified based on grade (grade-1, grade-2…) with each grade corresponding to the star of the apothecary (i.e. A 1-star apothecary can forge a grade-1 pill, a 2-star can forge a grade-2 pill) Pills can be split into four different levels of quality depending on their efficacy (which is reflected through their appearance):

* Formation

* Satiation

* Perfection

* Inscribed Pill

All pills, except for Inscribed Pill, possesses pill poison. It will accumulate in one’s body, blocking one’s meridians and acupoints, making it difficult for one to advance his cultivation. Can be solved. Also, the overconsumption of pills results in reliance on pills. One will lose confidence in his own skills to break through with his own strength, resulting in his mindset becoming his bottleneck.
Dimension Shatterer Realm

Immortal Envoy

This is the fourth and final layer of Ancient Sage 4-dans. It's said that a person who has reached the final realm will be able to shatter the void, similar to how an envoy of the immortals tears through space to descend to the mortal world. As such, the final realm is known as 'Dimension Shatterer' or 'Immortal's Envoy' or'Void Shattering Realm'.

Forged a Acupoint Soothing Pill, his forging technique he used is Thousand Mountain Hands, "successful" but
made a mistake in not properly doing the forging process where he just wasted the
forging process, resulting on wasting all of its resources of forging a pill, even said pill

Leaving Aperture Realm

Leaving Aperture (出窍, *chuqiao*) realm is the fifth layer of Saint. Leaving Aperture realm is the cultivation realm where a cultivator would be able to draw their Primordial Spirit out through an aperture in their body and roam the world freely. Even if their body were to meet with demise, they would still be able to exist as a Primordial Spirit. While the cultivator's lifespan would be significantly reduced existing in such a form, it was nevertheless an extremely incredible ability.

More importantly, one's Primordial Spirit would be further aligned with nature and the world, allowing it to draw even greater fighting prowess. Every single cultivator who had reached this level wielded destructive fighting prowess that instilled deference and horror in others.

Once breaking through this realm, unlike all previous realms, you don't immediately reach the primary stage. Only by crossing the first ordeal that you can truly reach the primary stage of Leaving Aperture, before that you can only be considered a Quasi L**eaving Aperture Realm** Saint.

From this realm onwards even geniuses from Sage Clans and great factions have trouble fighting against an expert even just a small realm higher.

## Stages

* Quasi Leaving Aperture
* Primary stage
* Intermediate stage
* Advanced stage
* Peak

Sword Quintessence

Sword Quintessences can be divided into five main classifications. The Old Sword Maestro’s devastating offensive swordsmanship and Ancestor Liushui’s impregnable defensive swordsmanship correspond to Strength and Defense respectively. Other than that, there are also Dexterity, Speed, and Void Quintessences.

When Zhang Xuan heard of Void, he could not help but frown in confusion as he did not know about Void.

Void could be said to be somewhat like a legend among sword practitioners. It is said that only Kong Shi reached this level back then, and with just a casual swing of his blade, even if his swing wasn’t fast, was lacking in strength, and was riddled with loopholes, his slash would still, by some inexplicable phenomenon, be able to overcome his opponent’s move with ease.

It is said that only what is truly non-existent can be considered as void. Since it is not well known to comprehend Void Quintessence, most think that one must fuse the other four Quintessences together. However, comprehending a single Quintessence would already take a sword practitioner an entire life’s worth of time and effort. It is not known if other than Kong shi, there had been any other sword practitioner to cultivate and fuse four Quintessences together, making people think it is impossible to cultivate and achieve Void Quintessence and so people forgot about it.

Zhang Xuan comprehends only three Quintessences:

* Strength: Ch.1281 (Three Swords of Lingxu: Sea Severing Sword, Ocean Cataclysm Sword, and Heaven Desecration Sword)
* Defense: Ch.1326 (Flowing Water Swordsmanship)
* Speed: chapter 1467 (Zhang Clan's Swordsmanship)
Sun Qiang

* Butler of Yang Xuan (aka Zhang Xuan in disguise).
* He followed Zhang Xuan from Tianxuan Kingdom to Heaven Realm and later to god world.
* Later an Envoy from the Sky of Heavenly Sword, Imparted Sun Qiang, Zhang Zhenxing, and Wang Mengya swordsmanship.
* In the end he is married to God Monarch Fairy Linglong.
Ancient Sage Zi Yu

Ancient Sage Zi Yu went by the compound surname of Tantai. Due to his disproportionate facial features, Kong shi had once judged him by his appearance and ended up wronging him. That resulted in the famous saying, “Judge a man by his looks, and one shall wrong a Zi Yu”.

Tantai Zhenqing is his descendant.
Saint Puppets

* The Otherworldly Demon puppets did resemble humans in some respects, albeit being slightly larger. They were all Saint 1-dan (around 22 in total). As these fellows were lifeless puppets, Zhang Xuan could carry them along with him in his storage ring.(Ch - 683)

* Since he could control these fellows through the heart (Vicious), it would be a waste for him to not keep them around.

* With this huge army of Saint realm puppets, he could easily destroy even a real Saint realm cultivator.

* When the puppets were upgraded in the Otherwordly Demonic Battlefield, they all have reached Saint 3-dan (Ch -956)

### (Ch - 1259)

* More than a hundred puppets suddenly appeared in the middle of the hall.

* These were the puppets forged he had obtained from Vicious back at the Marshlands of the Northern Meadows.

* As these puppets were forged from the hands of celestial designers, they didn’t carry the aura of Otherworldly Demons. As such, there was no problem with Zhang Xuan using them in public.

* While their cultivations were only at Leaving Aperture realm intermediate stage to advanced stage.
Luo Xuanqing

* Luo Xuanqing is the 6th son of the head of the Luo Clan and Luo Qiqi's older brother. He went with a title "King of Destruction" due instances of breaking properties of the Formation Master Guild within the Sanctum of Sages' Hall of Erudition.
* He is talented and skilled, yet humble and low profile.
* He pursued into the Firmament to try and outcompete Zhang Xuan.
* Zhang Xuan later meets with Luo Xuanqing, Yu Fei Er and Hu Yao Yao in the Azure, giving them droplets of his blood through Wu Chen with the words "See you in the firmament" without showing up, with Luo Qiqi giving him a a cheap, light-blue clip from when they were younger in **(2222)**
* He later arrives with Yu Fei Er and Hu Yao Yao in the Grand Spirit Mountain of the firmament in **(2235)**

Ancient Sage Zi Rong

Ancient Sage Zi Rong was one of the Kong shi’s seventy-two direct disciples, and he was famed as a sage. While his fame did not come close to matching Ancient Sage Ran Qiu, Ancient Sage Bo Shang, or Ancient Sage Yan Yan, his name was still remembered even after the passing of so many years, and he continued to command the respect of many cultivators.

Nangong Yuanfeng is his descendant

* Unofficial art.

Introduced as Lu Chong, Qu Chong is **Zhang Xuan**'s **6th** **Direct Disciple**.

## History

He is first seen as a seventeen year old student at Tianwu Academy. He belongs to the Qu Clan, however because his clan was destroyed, he had to swallow this grievance and join Tianwu Academy to become strong enough and take revenge. For the sake of revenge he was willing to pretend to be a mute for two years, and kneel outside of Tianwu Academy to be accepted and learn at the Academy. When Zhang Xuan has to take his 2-star Master Teacher examination, under the guise of Liu Cheng, he encounters Qu Chong and is impressed by his willpower and tenacity, and takes him to be a direct disciple, imparting onto Qu Chong Heavens Path Poison Art's Poison Body and Heavens Path Golden Body.

After suffering an attack to protect Zhang Xuan (Chapter 411) he goes into a deep coma and his soul is asleep.

After obtaining the means of a Soul Oracle and the necessary materials, Zhang Xuan manages to create the Soul Awakening Grass and wake Lu Chong's soul out of the coma (Chapter 572) and give him the Heaven's Path Soul Art for him to cultivate his soul.

From there he discovered that Lu Chong had awakened a unique constitution, Combat Soul Constitution, in order to fully awaken it Lu Chong leaves with Mo Hunsheng for the Ancient Domain of Soul Oracles (Chapter 603).

Given the Demon Cinque Beast so that him and Mo Hunsheng could travel faster (603)

He broke through to the Void Shattering Realm (Ancient Sage 4-dan) with the help of Zhang Xuan.

Semi Divinity Realm

The key difference between High Immortals and Semi-Divinity cultivators lay in the Aura of Divinity. It is found on the circular platforms of the Azure Bridge, as well as infused in God's blood.

Depending on the cultivation method, what it ultimately cultivated is Divine Intent, or God's Intent.

Sect heads of the Six Sects of the Forsaken Continent are usually of this cultivation realm.

While in theory deities could exist in the Azure, they would be suppressed to Heavenly Semi Divinity realm due to the seal of the Firmament. It is because of this that this is the highest attainable cultivation for all cultivators of the Forsaken Continent.

Painter

Calligraphy and Painting Master

***"Painting can be categorized under drawing and calligraphy. It can rid a person of his impatience, allowing one to reach a tranquil state of mind..."***

The 6 realms of painting were Reality Depiction, Spiritual Canvas, Infused Intentions, Breathtaking Verisimilitude, Spirit Creation, and Spiritual Wisdom respectively.

Reality Depiction, Spiritual Canvas, Infused Intentions, and Breathtaking Verisimilitude... These are the most common painting realms that were passed down by mouth from generation to generation. Actually, there is another level above all else and that is Spirit Creation! A painting that has achieved such a level possesses the breath, spirit, and soul of a master painter. As though being granted a soul, the painting obtains the ability to absorb spiritual energy so as to grant the beings within it life.

It was easy to determine the creator of a painting when it reached the level of Spirit Creation. As long as the creator were to come into physical contact with it, the painting would automatically display its ability to come to life.

Above Spirit Creation, there was still a sixth realm, the Spiritual Wisdom.

It was said that all of the animals in a painting of this level would possess their own intelligence, and were able to absorb spiritual energy to maintain their form outside the painting for a short period of time, creating a mystical sight.

just by granting the painting a name, the painting was raised by nearly an entire level.
