Silver Sword Peak

Biodata

History

Five Sword Peak legacy

Silver Sword Peak was originally one of Mount Shu's Five Sword Peaks, which gathered the sect's sword cultivators in its early era. The Five Sword Peaks served as Mount Shu's vanguard during its height, renowned for confronting demons and devils directly. 68

Silver Sword Peak's inheritance was later broken and the peak was once left without successors. Although its inheritance was restored, it no longer preserved the pure martial spirit of the historic Five Sword Peaks. Di Nufeng's later tenure was not connected to that earlier lineage. 68 255

Di Nufeng and Chu Liang

At the beginning of Chu Liang's time on the mountain, Silver Sword Peak had only one disciple: Chu Liang, an orphan rescued from demons and brought to Mount Shu by Di Nufeng after she recognized his cultivation aptitude. 2 9

Di Nufeng entered a wager with Jade Sword Peak's Wang Xuanling: if a Silver Sword Peak disciple won the Shushan Summit's Chief Disciple seat, Wang would surrender the position of Chief of All Peaks to her; if Jade Sword Peak won, she would give him her Phoenix Spirit Blood Jade. This made Chu Liang Silver Sword Peak's sole summit representative. 2 3

Dragon Qi Rain

A Dragon Qi Rain fell exclusively on Silver Sword Peak, allowing Chu Liang and Liu Xiaoyu to benefit from it while other disciples stayed away due to Di Nufeng's reputation. Di Nufeng herself avoided the rain because her Blazing Divine Phoenix Dharma Body was averse to Dragon Qi. 108

The rain repeatedly appeared around the peak because Mount Shu's True Dragon sensed someone there carrying great destiny. Old Man Sikong believed Liu Xiaoyu, a natural Koi, was the likely person being sensed. 224

Berry Paradise and expansion

Chu Liang developed the peak's Gold-Veined Flower fields into Silver Sword Peak's Berry Paradise, transplanting flowers across its sparse forest so visitors could pick berries rather than purchase them directly. 301

The park attracted cultivators and mortals alike, transforming the previously quiet peak into one of Mount Shu's busiest and most profitable locations. Its income surpassed the importance of the sect's regular peak allowance. 314

After Silver Sword Peak's success at the Shushan Summit, its members won championships in the Flying Sword Racing, Mahjong, and Spirit Pet Fighting competitions, giving the peak a reputation as the summit's major dark horse. 277

Destruction and reconstruction

Di Nufeng attempted to refine Tribulation Transcendence Divine Bronze with Samadhi Fire, misjudged the force she would unleash, and destroyed Silver Sword Peak along with nearby sect property. The bronze itself remained undamaged. 769

Disciples of the Earth and Wood Hall reassembled the mountain afterward. As the hall's leader, Chu Liang oversaw the placement of the rebuilt peak's structures and vegetation. 769

Grounds and Facilities

• Peak pavilion — Di Nufeng's residence stands at the summit, reached by a mountainside path; Chu Liang's small wooden cabin was located below it. 2
• Gold-Veined Flower fields — The source of the Dragon Qi-infused Gold-Veined Berries that became the basis of the peak's tourism business. 108 301
• Berry Paradise — A public berry-picking park developed across the peak's open woodland. 301
• Bamboo forest and viewing area — Chu Jiu's daily feeding area, with a restricted viewing space where visitors gather to watch the Iron-Eating Beast eat bamboo. 844
• Enlightened plant surveillance — Chu Liang began granting sentience to Gold-Veined Flowers and intended to spread awakened plants, trees, and rocks across the peak as lookouts. 439
• Phoenix-level buildings — Chu Liang presented durable Phoenix-level building plans for Mount Shu, while Di Nufeng tested their durability by trying to destroy one. 669

Residents and Personnel

• Di Nufeng — Peak Lord; a Seventh Realm powerhouse whose reputation deters many Mount Shu disciples from approaching the peak. 2 108
• Chu Liang — Silver Sword Peak's sole formal disciple during its early period; later organizer of its orchard, tourism, rebuilding, and operations. 2 301 769
• Liu Xiaoyu — A member of Silver Sword Peak and former park mascot; she won the Shushan Summit's Mahjong Competition. 277 844
• Big Head / Golden-haired Hou — Spirit beast associated with the peak; won the Spirit Pet Fighting Competition at the Shushan Summit. 277
• Baize Cub — Frequently played with Liu Xiaoyu and the Golden-haired Hou, and showed a preference for living on Silver Sword Peak. 136
• Chu Yi — A Silver Sword Peak member who later advised the group on management matters and helped oversee Red Cotton Peak. 632

Affiliations and Rivalries

• Shushan Sect — Silver Sword Peak is one of Shushan's thirty-six peaks and historically belonged to the Five Sword Peaks. 2 68
• Jade Sword Peak — Longstanding rival. The antagonism between Di Nufeng and Jade Sword Peak Leader Wang Xuanling extended to their disciples, especially after their public wager over the Shushan Summit. 9
• Mount Shu's True Dragon — Its Dragon Qi Rain repeatedly appeared around Silver Sword Peak after it sensed great destiny among the peak's residents. 224
• Earth and Wood Hall — Reassembled the mountain after Di Nufeng's failed refinement attempt destroyed it. 769

Trivia

• Silver Sword Peak's reputation is so intimidating that other disciples declined to approach even when Dragon Qi Rain fell there, fearing Di Nufeng might charge them for a bath. 108
• Chu Liang's later policy for the peak was that it “doesn't keep idle people”: even its awakened flowers, trees, and rocks were expected to work. 439
• Di Nufeng was hired for a monthly allowance of five thousand Sword Coins to protect the berry garden, making the peak's strongest resident its paid security. 300
• The peak's later credit system led Di Nufeng to take up debt collection, a task she reportedly enjoyed enough to hope customers would fail to pay. 632
