Ha Lan Huang

* Book 1

Ha Lan Huang is known as a travelling "Elder at Large" of the Ha Clan, and has benefited from the sponsorship of Ha Tai Kai.

## History

Lan Huang initially joined a now-defunct branch of the Ha clan on the Western Shu continent. He later entered the Cherry Wine Pagoda, lured by the mystery of Yin Eclipse.

He would later return to the Western Shu continent to found "The School of the Worldly Fisher", now a thriving second-class influence named after his use of fishing to enhance his comprehensions.

## Book One

As heavenly and earthly interests direct their attention towards Blue Water Province, Ha Kai requires the aid of someone who knows how the Din clan operates and who can be relied upon by members of the Ha Family. He calls Lan Huang, who was wandering the world while training, and promises him a manual that can guide him to a Peerless True Principle in exchange for his aid. Huang agrees to accompany Ha Yun and other young nobles from the Ha clan into Yin Eclipse as 'Sir Ha Huang', a 450 year old "junior" associated with the Cherry Wine Pagoda. He was last in Blue Water Province as Sir Huang about seventy years ago, and poses as his own descendent.

Psyche Break

A psyche break is a kind of deviation in which a cultivator's mind is damaged, typically due to a traumatic event. Such deviations can lead to heart demons, or if serious enough could result in outright "Demonification" where a part of the subconscious takes control and the cultivator becomes a slave to their bases desires.

This kind of deviation is especially bad before manifesting a Nascent Soul.
Generation

The latest concept of generation came in aftermath of Huang-Mo Wars.

A generation is defined as a span of 9,000 years. to stay in current generation a person has to complete "checkpoints" which are as follows:

* Reach immortal realm before 100 years of age.
* Reach Dao Immortal realm before 9,000 years of age.

**Note:** You can exceed your generation by clearing next checkpoint before limit of current checkpoint. For example becoming Dao Immortal before 100 years of age.

A member of current generation is considered a "Junior" and anyone who couldn't keep up with it is considered a "Senior". A junior is expected to saw respect for their seniors and a senior is expected to not involve themselves in matters of juniors, if there is a feud between a junior and senior it is senior who is expected to saw understanding and let the matter not escalate.

Since becoming Immortal in 100 years takes very good fortune and a good amount of resources a normal person, even in a great world like Eastern Azure, can't stay in their generation. This results in advantage to those who has more resources and backing.

There are exceptions to this rule like Young Sovereign Competition.
Cao Hongjun

* Book 1

**Warning:** this page contains significant spoilers!

Cao Hongjun is a Grand Marshal of Eastern Azure's Military Authority, and the former Blue Duke. He is the father of the current Blue Duke, Cao Leyang.

## History

After a mysterious journey into Yin Eclipse 30 years ago, Cao Hongjun ascended to Wordly Venerate and subsequently became a Grand Marshal of Eastern Azure's Military Authority Bureau. It is strongly suspected that Cao Hongjun made some significant gains as a result of his expedition into Yin Eclipse, and ascended to his new position in Shan Lai so that he might avoid certain questions.
Ling Baisheng

* Book 1

Ling Baisheng is an Elder of the Ling Clan with connections to the clan's branch in Blue Water Province. His precise standing in the Ling clan is unclear, but he is sufficiently well-known to serve as a point-of-contact for off-world branches.

## Book One

In the early chapters of the first book Baisheng is acting as Ling Yu's protector. When Ling Yu, Jun Sana, and Lin Ling express an interest in attending a prominent herb auction, Baisheng disguises himself and the young women as Young Nobles from the Nine Moons Province. While there the group uncovers a suspicious arrangement of contaminated herbs and rightly suspects a connection to Jun Arai's recent troubles. Baisheng discourages his charges from calling attention to the herbs in question themselves, and instead manoeuvrers Quan Dingxiang, a prominent young alchemist, into a position to discover the contamination himself. In the tense aftermath of the discovery Baisheng drew the attention of Fairy Sovereign Sky Song, World Venerate Lady Lingsheng of Zhi Zhi Mountain, to a spirit herb auction that failed to invite her or her daughter. Their brief conversation resulted in Lady Lingsheng's daughter arriving, causing a scene, and further distracting any watchers from Baisheng and his charges.

## History

The Yeng Brotherhood was a prominent group of "bandits" during the Year of the Blood Eclipse. They raised mutated tetrid stalkers, wielded Blood Ling contaminants, and kidnapped female cultivators during their reign of terror. Eventually the brotherhood was broken and the surviving members scattered for safety.

Within the past year, Yeng Illhan has resurfaced, along with a "Strategist Huan". The two have a plan to bring back the brotherhood, and have been conducting infiltrations of the Ha, Deng, Kun, and Ling clans.

Physical Cultivation

*Note: this article is a work-in-progress*

> 'The words in the heart that cannot be taken'.
>
>

Physical Cultivation is a poorly understood form of cultivation. Its practitioners possess a Mantra and have excellent durability and staying power which have earned them a repuation as brawlers with low offensive power. It is regarded as a 'failed' method in part because of it's progression issues.

## Overview

The fundamental component of physical cultivation is a 'mantra': five words that, ideally, harmonise in different ways with the wielder. Mantras can be invoked internally or externally, and their words can possibly be combined into mantric phrases for a more potent effect. Notably, a mantra cannot be taken by force, and can be passed on willingly by the bearer.

Physical cultivators begin their advancement by invoking their mantra and accumulating some qi and intent into their bodies. This gives them high durability and a lot of staying power, but not a lot of offensive power.

See the Cultivation page for a unified table of realm advancement compared to other cultivation archetypes. Notably, physical cultivators can advance to obtain "Soul Meridians", which serve as a Sea of Knowledge.

## Eastern Azure

Physical cultivators are largely restricted to a few enclaves on the Northern and Eastern continents, with the largest numbers concentrated around the Yin Eclipse sub-continent. In a previous aeonspan, when this method was viewed somewhat differently, the methods by which it was advanced were called 'Physique Laws', but in the current era of the Blue Morality Imperial Court this information has largely slipped from common knowledge and been lost or suppressed. Ha Tai Wen has suggested that the Resurrection Lily of the Yin Eclipse Mountain Range was a significant factor in physical cultivation's current reputation as a 'dead end.'

Those with 'inherited' mantras guard their secrets carefully with stringent oaths and laconic responses to queries about their cultivation. With an inherited mantra, and possible generations of hard-won knowledge, a practitioner is more likely to survive and advance. Even with an inherited mantra, this path remains among the most difficult on Eastern Azure.

Ha Tai Kai

* Book 1

Ha Tai Kai is the 5th Ancient Ancestor of the Ha Clan, and the only son of Ha Tai Wen. To many of the locals in Blue Water Province he is known simply as 'Old Kai', a scholar and an inventor of strange, popular games.

## History

Ha Tai Kai's exact age is currently unknown, but he was alive to see the most recent aeonspan turn.

A version of history espoused by the Blue Water Province's Imperial Envoy claims that Ha Tai Kai ran a cult during the Shan Dynasty. The Imperial Envoy said of him: "He was known to consort with foxes and all manner of demons, not an upstanding cultivator at all." This poor reputation amongst the Imperial Court might stem from a grudge with a former Grand Imperial Astrologer, who Ha Kai accused of "colluding to ruin the auspice of the wheel of heaven on Eastern Azure".

Ha Kai is also a sponsor of West Flower Picking's Cherry Wine Pagoda Teahouse, which is under the management of Ha Xiaolian. Xiaolian is an erstwhile disciple from a time before Lu Fu Tao, and looks out for young orphaned women from the extended Ha clan by offering them work in the Teahouse. To some members of the Ha Clan he is known as the "Pagoda Lord", he cultivates a carefree and hands-off reputation while assuming that role.

### Modern Day

To most in today's Blue Water Province Ha Kai seems, at a glance, to be an eccentric Old Scholar or Grandmaster. Those that look closer would find that he is supposedly a wandering elder from the same era as Lu Fu Tao, or the Pagoda Lord of the Cherry Wine Pagoda.

Ha Kai had a tenuous connection to the Di Ji incident of 100 years prior to Book One, leading to a falling out with Lady Kai, woman he was perusing at the time, and a grudge with the current Grand Imperial Astrologer. Ha Kai was off-world at the time, but was implicated in Lady Kai's eyes by the resistance of Ha Clan elders seeking to capitalize on the aftermath of the 'Year of the Blood Eclipse.'

One of his active interests is in the "Ha Family", the descendants of his younger sister, and seeing they do not suffer any undue problems. He has a relationship with one of the Ha Family's seniors, Governor Ha Feirong, who knows him only as the Pagoda Lord.

Blood Eclipse Cult

The Blood Eclipse Cult was an evil, malicious organization of cultivators that terrorized the Yin Eclipse sub-continent nearly 150 years ago. This tumultuous period is now known as the "Year of the Blood Eclipse."

## History

### Year of the Blood Eclipse

The cult's origins lay in ancient ruins in Blue Water Province disturbed by bandits acting under the patronage of the Iron Crown Duke. The bandits stumbled across an ancient evil, and rather than act swiftly and decisively, the political powers opted to stand by and let that evil cause misfortune for others. One of the methods used by the cult involved blood ling qi, which they leveraged to subvert villages to their way of thinking, to corrupt cultivators, and to make it difficult to track its members. They were also known to use children in such schemes.

Eventually the cult's activities grew to the point where "young heroes" of the Imperial Court travelled across the ocean in an effort to suppress and destroy the cult. In reality, they were woefully unprepared for the reality of Yin Eclipse and suffered heavy casualties, allowing the cult to persist for another half a year.

In the end, the cult repelled two assaults by 'elite' forces of the Imperial Court *and* a Censure Decree before finally being put down by Solitary Slaughter Sept. By the end of that terrible year millions had died, and various towns and villages were left in ruins.

### Aftermath

The Year of the Blood Eclipse was a blow to the prosperity of Blue Water Province, leading to an increase in small-scale aggression between the province's major clans. This unrest gave Imperial Court influences an opportunity to gain various footholds in the region, and an opportunity to contrive circumstances that enabled the local powers to undermine the Hunter Bureau.

Dun Fanshu

* Book 1

Dun Fanshu is the Dun Imperial Dynasty's Third Crown Prince. Within Blue Water Province he has a controlling influence over the Teng School and some connections to the Deng Clan.

## History

Dun Fanshu is the only son of Empress Dun Mei, the 'young' empress. Her predecessor, Dun Linhua, abdicated her position to become an inheritance candidate to Lady Kong Jing.

Long before the Three Schools Conflict, Dun Fanshu had gained a controlling influence over the Teng School in Blue Water Province as part of the ongoing Imperial effort to subvert the Azure Astral Authority's interests and grasp some of the wealth emerging from Yin Eclipse. His destruction of the Lin School ignited the Conflict, though despite appearances it is said Fanshu only got "burnt fingers" from that debacle.

On a larger political scale, he is considered a backer of the Sovereignty Hall, which advocates for abandoning Shan Lai's sphere of influence entirely.

Seven Sovereigns Imperial School

The Seven Sovereigns Imperial School was founded by Saintess Meng Fu of the Meng heavenly clan. This is the latest in the line of various schools and sects founded by Meng Fu, whose assigned duty on Eastern Azure Great World is to monitor the Yin Eclipse Mountain Range. This school is among the most powerful organizations on Eastern Azure, and is largely in a cold war with the other powers.

## Yin Eclipse Censure Incident

Not long after the announcement of the Yin Eclipse Trial, the sect acted upon an Authority Censure request initiated by Ji Tantai as per their Imperial Court Treaty obligations. The sect typically participates in a censure command from the Military Bureau multiple times a year, though very rarely (if ever) on the Easten continent. The organizers of the censure force were supposedly unaware that the Imperial Court Treaty has an explicit exemption for the Yin Eclipse Mountain Range. The censure force encountered the Scholar of Calamity, who followed them after their withdrawal to the school. The Scholar's arrival caused the deaths of 1831 students, 21 teachers, 2 guest elders, and 7 other visitors. Three quarters of the censure force were killed in Yin Eclipse. This disaster indicated that Ji Tantai was a false identity, and that the censure request was initiated as a part of some larger plot.

In addition to her lay worship the Empress and other notable women venerate and honor the Queen Mother with a ritual during New Year's Week, a time in which cultivators may find some of the most auspicious moments for advancement. On Eastern Azure, another title for her is "Queen of the Seven Stars."

Yin Eclipse Mountain Range

A mountain range on the Easten Continent that designates the Yin Eclipse sub-continent. It is the place where a major part of story takes place.

It is the native home of the Yin People.

### Significance

It is considered one of the foremost danger zone on Eastern Azure Great World alongside Argent Devouring Caves. Although it is now on the Eastern Azure Great World, it hasn't always been.

### Suppression

The area is covered in a zone of suppression which suppresses all cultivators down to peak of Golden Core realm. Things like temperature, humidity and fatigue affects *everyone* as if they were mortal. The land here respells external qi and replenishment is next to impossible without pills or special methods.

Soul sense on which most cultivators rely majorly for perception doesn't work in suppression zone making it even more dangerous for cultivators above Golden Core realm due to their reliance on it. All kinds of attack are blunted and loses a major part of their potency while all formation bleeds Qi and fails quickly. Due to these factors generally Qi Purity is used to measure strength and not Cultivation realm.

Notably, a cultivators of Venerate Step could temporarily lift cultivation in local areas to some degree, but this is considered very dangerous since there are threats of equivalent realm in mountains and lifting suppression may attract their attention.

### The Rain from the East

More than just rain; it is a sort of earthly phenomenon in its own right. It came from the inner valleys of the Yin Eclipse sub-continent, from the depths of the ‘danger zone’ that was the surroundings of the Yin Eclipse Great Mount. The rains sweep across even the coastal area from the perpetual rain of the East Fury Peaks and the suppressive miasmas of South Grove Pinnacle with it. Carrying the suppression with it.

## High Valleys

Inner parts of Yin Eclipse. High Valleys are considered very dangerous even for high realm cultivators.

### The Six Pits

#### The Red Pit

it is located on western side of mountains. Has threats that can be more psychological than physical. Home to Blood Ling trees which generate a red fog of confused emotions. The center is called the Red Eye and is a grove of Blood Ling trees.

#### The Black Pit

It is located near West Flower Picking Town.

#### The Blue Pit

it is located in depths of Shadow Forest.

#### Gray Pit

In is located in outer valley near North Fissure.

#### The Green Pit

It is located on western slope of Yin Eclipse, it is the only 'pit' which doesn't have a known 'eye'. It is just a normal mortal forest where you cannot touch the natural qi of the world, space cannot be broken, and time cannot be unbound. Everything that steps in there is as mortal as the day it was born. According to Hunter Bureau records, Tang Ao—the Moon Tomb Emperor, is believed to have died there.

### Jasmine Gate

One of the valleys is home to the Jasmine Gate, what is essentially a sect for enlightened spirit herbs. It's most prominent feature is the God Bewitching Jasmine. It has some connection to old Yin people's stories about the 'Watcher' and the 'Old Gate.'

All five elements feed each other in a series of succeeding cycles and there are various versions of the cycle within Eastern Azure Great World, although they all talk of the same set of five fundamental groups of Elemental aspects

**Metal** >>> feeds >>> **Water** >>> feeds >>> **Wood** >>> feeds >>> **Fire** >>> feeds >>> **Earth** >>> feeds >>> **Metal**

**Metal** >>> overcomes >>> **Wood** >>> overcomes **Earth** >>> overcomes >>> **Water** >>> overcomes >>> **Fire** >>> overcomes **Metal**.

The reverse of these two sequences also cancels each other out. When Yin and Yang attribute comes into play, it becomes a successive cycle so Yin feeds Yang feed feeds yin etc.

The other notable variation on this cycle is **Thunder > Water > Life > Fire > Earth.** Thunder, in this case, refers more to 'Heaven' and 'Tribulation', as Metal is the element of the Heavens. sometimes lightning is also used, again somewhat metaphorically.

## **Yin and Yang Qi**

Qi that represents the duality present in all aspects of the universe. these can take several forms. the most profound are True Yin and Yang Qi and Pure Yin and Yang Qi. Elemental qi can also have Yin and Yang attributes.

## Qi Types

### **Heart Force**

Quasi qi like energy that Dharma Cultivators and a few others cultivate. It has a strong relationship with Soul Force. Scriptures that focus on it in depth are *rare.*

### **Vital Qi**

Similar to Vitality/Longevity, except its more common to Body and Physical Cultivators. In physical cultivation it is the qi that is permanently locked away in the bones during Physical Refinement its capacity is limited and once refined once cannot be replaced if lost prior to breaking through to Mantra Seed. it also exists for Spiritual Cultivators in the form of qi that fuses with their vital organs during Qi Refinement and aside from the difference in location is otherwise identical.

### **Compound Qi**

natural combinations of elemental and Yin and Yang qi that are stable enough to have their own identities. examples include Wind Qi, Rain qi, Light Qi, Dark Qi and so on.

### **Myriad Elements Qi**

a more comprehensive aspect of 'elemental qi'. it is rare in lower realms and even in great realms is much sought after. its purity is a magnitude over Five Elements Qi and has aspects of the entire element cycle within it rather than just singular and compound elements.

### **True Qi's**

Qi in its most fundamental states. it is largely unattributed. Spatial Qi along with some other weirder forces are forms or manifestations of True Qi.

In the intervening years, her father has been among those seeking to marry off Kun Juni.

She spends most of her time at the Misty Jasmine Inn where she has a shrine. She is well acquainted with the monkeys of the area, in particular the Iron Hide band which is led by Ochre-Lightning.

**Warning:** this page contains significant spoilers!

### Theories about her Identity

There are some theories about her 'true identity' since she only has a single given name.

The most common theory is that she is actually Jia Ying because of the name similarity and similar skill set, especially knowledge of feng shui.

There is also some thought that she is instead Song Jia because both of them are blonde and have similar injuries or that Song Jia is both Senior Ying and Song Jia, or possibly one is a clone.
Sar'katush

They are a race of intelligent lizard people first encountered by Kun Juni underground shortly after she split up with Lin Ling and Han Shu while fleeing Di Ji and his heroic companions.

They have four arms and four eyes and feathers. They communicate non-verbally and respond well to Juni's Mantra use suggesting a similarity.

They descended into cannibalism, barbarity. There is a connection to the Prophet in Yellow.
Principle

### Overview - WIP

Formed from a unification of the disparate elements of a cultivator's Foundation and Accumulation, Principles are the main power used by cultivators from the Dao Seeking to Golden Immortal realms. Each Principle is unique to its user. No two Principles, no matter how similar in nature, will ever act the same.

### Grades - WIP

Principles come in multiple grades, with the rankings on Eastern Azure going from most common to least are Spiritual, Earthly, True, Peerless, and Heavenly. There are also Mortal Principles, though it is unclear where on that ranking they fit. The grade of a Principle dictates how strong it is, with Spiritual Principles being the weakest and Heavenly ones being the strongest.

### Importance - WIP

Among the younger generations on Eastern Azure the grade of a cultivator's Principle helps determine social status, with it being popular to put the grade of the Principle before the cultivation realm to signify what "grade" of cultivator the person in question is. An example of this would be a Peerless Golden Immortal being a Golden Immortal realm cultivator with a Peerless grade Principle. It is unclear what, if any, importance such distinctions hold outside of Eastern Azure.

Body Refinement

Body Refinement is an 'archetype' of Heaven's Path. It is similar to Spiritual Cultivation in many ways, but focuses on tempering the physical body rather than controlling and refining qi.

## Overview

There is much less information available about the specifics of body refinement, in large part because none of the PoV characters use it on its own. It is known that those who use body cultivation alone have a reputation for being somewhat unintelligent combat addicts, but also that they are known to be durable and strong enough that annoying them at close proximity is a bad idea.

Body refiners still use their meridians, form a dantian, etc – draws in qi to temper, strengthen and enhance the physical form rather than to actually manipulate the qi in its own right. Body refinement is often used in concert with either spiritual or dharma cultivation.

## Eastern Azure

To the common folk of Eastern Azure Great World, body refinement emerged in an ancient era on the Imperial and Argent Gate continents. In the modern era, it is one of the most populous methods of cultivation alongside Spiritual Cultivation.

Azure Astral Authority

**Warning:** this page contains significant spoilers!

The Azure Astral Authority is the controlling power of the Azure Four Worlds quadrant within the Azure Astral Starfield. The Azure Four Worlds quadrant contains four worlds named after a cardinal direction along with the central Throne World of Shan Lai. When citizens of these worlds refer to the Azure Astral Authority they are generally referring to the local influence of the Shan Emperor, who represents the Azure Astral Authority Alliance's interests in this part of the Martial Axial Region. Southern Azure is currently the most influential of the Azure Four Worlds.

## History

### Ancient Eastern Azure History

The Azure Astral Authority was once the dominant power on Eastern Azure Great World, having backed the Shan clan's Imperial Dynasty. The Moon Tomb Emperor was reportedly a wrathful, compulsive, and uncompromising leader during his short reign. He was also envious of his Empress, Saintess White Swan, who had closer ties to Shan Lai and was beloved by the people of Eastern Azure. A public falling out led to Shan Lai withdrawing support and mandating that he choose an heir from the noble clans of his court.

The imperial advisors pushed for the much-respected Mu Shanshu and Tai Weimin to serve as neutral parties in aiding the Dowager Empress White Swan in selecting her husband's successor. The Empress, Mu Shanshu, and a number of old masters would all vanish before a decision could be reached. These disappearances eventually broke the influence of Shan Lai on Eastern Azure, which enabled the Dun clan to seize power as the Second Dun Dynasty. The Azure Astral Authority nevertheless retained influence amongst various bureaus. Their original influence in the Astral Authority Bureau was considerably weakened over time, and the bureau was renamed as the Astrology Bureau in light of the new Kong/Dun supremacy.

### Modern Day on Eastern Azure

The Azure Astral Authority has considerable influence within the Hunter Bureau in the Yin Eclipse Mountain Range. Despite this, they have a poor reputation in the version of history known to most of the local inhabitants and are considered by some to have been "tyrannical".

Song Jia

Also known as Demon Saintess Jia is so-called because prior to the catastrophe with Di Ji her story was considered the defining shame of the recent generation. She formed a Good Fortune Core, a rare core with a connate association with worldly good fortune and feng shui.

She was engaged to Shu Bao of the Shu clan. She later came to the Shu Pavilion which was the sect both belonged to, to complain that he mistreated her and gave away her purity in a lost gamble to a disciple from the Jade Gate Court.

**Warning:** this page contains significant spoilers!

### Theories

She is considered by the community to have some connection to Jia Ying or Senior Ying. Possibly using one or both of those names as alternate personas.
