Government and Society
Immortal Kingdom Administration
- Immortal Kings issue edicts affecting access and movement within their kingdoms. Xia and Yun Cangran seek direct graduation and permission to travel freely rather than continue academy studies 8582.
- Academic district authorities arrange placements and cultivation programs. Students with exceptional aptitude can be transferred when their current subdistrict lacks the capacity to accommodate them 8582.
- The Immortal Kingdom System uses brooches carried by cultivators. Many require individual verification, preventing Xia and Yun Cangran from simply using devices recovered from the dead 8600.
- Imperial intervention can reach academy systems directly. The Azure Immortal Emperor takes over the local system to question Xia and Yun Cangran about their domination of the Immortal Pattern Stone market 8589.
Immortal Emperors
- The Azure Immortal Emperor is a Human Race emperor and one of the few Immortal Emperors in the contemporary Immortal Realm 8589.
- Immortal Emperors are described as possessing cultivation above the Illusion Breaking Stage 8589.
- The ruined kingdom’s Emperor Lord is a separate, weakened figure encountered at the peak of the Spirit Nurturing Stage; the density of its Immortal Meridian indicates that its former strength was substantially greater 8563.
Academies and Training
Academies combine formal instruction with secret-realm exploration, using kingdom resources to reward successful students 8531 8532.
| Training Feature | Function |
|---|---|
| Secret realms | Provide challenges, original treasures, and advanced-resource rewards 8531. |
| Lower-grade challenges | Score participants primarily by completion within a time limit 8532. |
| Immortal Medicine rewards | Can permit direct advancement from the Agile Stage to the True Understanding Stage; lesser rewards consolidate the Agile Stage 8532. |
| Resource renewal | Time-sensitive challenges encourage participants to leave most non-renewable resources untouched 8532. |
| Funding | Comes chiefly from the Immortal Kingdom, supplemented by donations from prominent students’ families 8531. |
Cultivation and Resources
Immortal Energy
- High-grade secret realms contain immortal energy that is difficult to convert even at the Finger Immortal Stage. Conversion becomes markedly faster at the Spirit Nurturing Stage 8563.
- Immortal Meridians concentrate this energy. Deep inside the ruined kingdom’s meridian, its density exceeds what the Spirit Nurturing Stage can comfortably withstand 8563.
- Great Demon lairs have higher rates of Immortal Meridian leakage than ordinary areas, making them useful targets for resource-recovery missions 8565.
Immortal Patterns
| Cultivation Threshold | Documented Capability |
|---|---|
| Finger Immortal Stage | Xia estimates that he could manufacture dozens of Immortal Soldiers and potentially forge One-Rank Immortal Soldiers 8553. |
| Feather Infant Stage | Xia and Yun Cangran can use top-tier Immortal Patterns 8588. |
| Heaven Ascending Stage | Allows the mobilization of some Divine Patterns and is a prerequisite for entering the Immortals and Demons Battlefield 8588. |
- Immortal Pattern production consumes substantial immortal energy. Xia and Yun Cangran sometimes create hundreds of Rune Stones in a single batch 8588.
- Their sale of Immortal Pattern Stones earns large quantities of Immortal Coins, attracting the Azure Immortal Emperor’s scrutiny 8589.
Notable Treasures
- Nation-Suppressing Immortal Soldier — possesses its own consciousness and complete Immortal Pattern. Xia modifies that pattern to gain control 8550.
- Bow of Extreme Penetration and Nation-Annihilating Staff — high-grade Immortal Soldiers recovered for the Spirit Academy 8550.
- True Immortal Core — found at the heart of the ruined kingdom’s Immortal Meridian; contains the surviving consciousness of Bei Mu 8563 8564.
- Immortal Kingdom materials — generally surpass ordinary secret-realm resources at the highest tiers; immortal-level items are distinguished from Spirit Weapons 8531.
History
The Ruined Immortal Kingdom
The Emperor Lord brought a fragment of Bei Mu’s consciousness back from the God and Demon War. It attempted to revive her through a top-tier Immortal Meridian, absorb her Origin Immortal Power, and use her Immortal Core to command other immortals. Bei Mu states that the attempt did not succeed as intended 8564.
Xia later defeats the weakened Emperor Lord, implants a soul curse mark, and erases its memories. He then enters the Immortal Meridian’s core and awakens Bei Mu 8563. Once Bei Mu controls the Central Pivot, academy personnel begin organizing missions to expel Great Demons and explore the kingdom’s ruins 8565.
Arrival from the Immortal Pasture Realm
Xia brings students and instructors from the Immortal Pasture Realm into the academy system. He requests suitable cultivation arrangements for them while seeking independent travel privileges for himself and Yun Cangran 8582. Their subsequent mass production of Immortal Patterns brings them to the attention of the Azure Immortal Emperor 8588 8589.

Ancient Immortal Realm History
- Coalition defeat: According to Prince Yuyan’s account, distrust and self-preservation among allied commanders exhausted the realm’s elite troops. Its underlying foundation survived, and Chen Taixian’s Immortal Dao faction subsequently rose to prominence 2384 2385.
- Planar survival: Ancient immortal territories survived earlier planar wars as isolated remnants within or alongside other planes 5190.
- Evacuation: A Dao Tribulation demon and the loss of the realm’s fortune brought it close to ruin. Xia helped its inhabitants flee into the Nine Heavens 5216.
- Heavenly City connection: Han Shanshan proposed linking Sky Sword Mountain to the Ancient Immortal Realm through the World-Suppressing Cauldron, while containing the dense chaos energy above 5192.
- Restoration: After an explosion detached it into a new realm, Heavenly City worked to restore its original appearance 5729.
