Background

Founding and early order

The Great Blue Dynasty was founded more than five centuries ago by the Grand Ancestor Emperor, who unified the Central Plains and established the first empire to do so. Its early expansion relied heavily on Daoist support; Daoism helped create the original Imperial Guard Army and supplied the Fiend Artifacts that underpinned its military power. 285 521 599

The Grand Ancestor also established the imperial palace atop the Mystic Vault Imperial Zenith True Dragon Grand Array. By combining the dynasty's National Fortune with the Son of Heaven's Dragon Qi, the array allows an emperor within its range to wield Peak Expert-level power. 518

Mingxin Reform

Seventeen years before the story's opening, the Great Blue Dynasty fought several Western countries simultaneously. The Western Allied Forces reached the gates of the Imperial Capital before the Azure Blue Iron Cavalry defeated them, preserving the dynasty. 2

The war exposed the Western Continent's technological strength and prompted the Mingxin Reform, a policy of adopting Western culture and technology to “learn from the barbarians to control the barbarians.” Electric lights, radios, bicycles, and cars became visible products of the reform. 2

Government and society

  • The dynasty operates under a dual-monarchy system. Noble titles still grant taxation rights and access to benefits such as cultivation resources, but do not confer direct governing authority over their fiefs. 343
  • The imperial family is considered the dynasty's greatest clan, standing above the Ten Great Clans in political weight. 682
  • The central cabinet includes six ministries, including the Department of Righteous Law, which employs masters of sorcery. 2
  • The dynasty has twenty-three provinces. 630
  • Before the Mingxin Reform, the Imperial Academy was the nation's foremost educational institution. The reform established twelve universities and dispersed the academy's former authority. 547
  • The court standardized and compiled folk martial arts into the Great Blue Dynasty Freehand Collection, commonly called Blue Hand; it is taught through the Conflict Mitigation Department. 6
  • Blue is the dynasty's most esteemed color, and high-quality blue clothing is associated with exceptional status. 101

Blue Patrol Pavilion

The Blue Patrol Pavilion was established to oversee Jianghu sects, aristocratic families, and regional powers while incorporating those forces into a court-led system. Its provincial Pavilion Members are publicly elected from Dao Foundation Stage and Possession Stage cultivators. 417 418

  • The Pavilion's first public vote ceremony was formally opened at Zhengyang Gate by Chief Secretary Ye Ze'an. 429
  • Its structure was designed to avoid repeating the former dynasty's Azure Sky Bureau by including representatives from major sects and families. 417
  • The Pavilion later enforced the Ten Laws, with inspectors empowered to investigate local gangs and Pavilion officials alike. 676
  • Li Fei eventually became Blue Patrol Pavilion Master; the post was elevated to an eighteenth-level civil office after the Western Extremity Kingdom campaign. 661

National Fortune and military power

National Fortune

National Fortune is a foundational source of the dynasty's power. It can enhance its rulers, armies, formations, and selected officials, but is vulnerable to depletion through rebellion, war, and excessive use. 318 412 709

  • Within the Mystic Vault Imperial Zenith True Dragon Grand Array, the emperor can condense Dao Principles through National Fortune and gain Peak Expert-level combat power. This power rapidly diminishes outside the array. 518
  • The emperor can lend Dragon Qi to subjects beyond the capital, allowing them to fight on behalf of the throne. 518
  • Li Fei's [Jing An] Mystical Power can open a temporary channel through which National Fortune descends with minimal loss. 605
  • National Fortune was refined into Li Fei's Sun Moon Stars Armor and Lands and Peoples Blade, representing the dynasty's provinces, people, mountains, and rivers. 466 630

Imperial Guard Armies

The Imperial Guard Army is the dynasty's elite military foundation. Its soldiers are all Martial Warriors, with the weakest at the Body Breaking Stage, and are equipped with Fiend Artifacts. 166

  • Military Formations combine Martial Path and Art Path methods, enabling troops to condense Military Fiend for battlefield-scale offense and defense. 166 511
  • Two hundred Imperial Guard soldiers can threaten a Martial Dao Master; one thousand can contend with a Grandmaster; and a ten-thousand-man formation can force a Martial Saint to avoid its edge. 237
  • The dynasty historically maintained four established Imperial Guard Armies of more than ten thousand soldiers each. Their continued control by the court was considered essential to the dynasty's survival. 237 450
  • The Azure Blue Iron Cavalry saved the dynasty during the Western Allied Forces' invasion and remains its strongest Imperial Guard Army. 2 647
  • The Azure Frost Army, White Flame Army, and Crimson Scale Army are major Imperial Guard formations deployed across the northern, western, and overseas campaigns. 450 661 684
  • After conquering the grasslands and desert regions, the dynasty restored several damaged Imperial Guard Armies and created the Western Suppression Army for the planned Western Expedition. 679

Rule in conquered territories

  • After occupying Kuhar City, the dynasty restored order, distributed a house to every household, and avoided indiscriminate killing or looting. 603
  • Eligible youths in captured grassland territory were tested for martial arts and Technique talent. Those with aptitude could remain with improved housing or relocate to receive cultivation resources. 603
  • Grassland youths who aided the dynasty during the Pact of the Wilderness God received titles and educational opportunities, including places at Wu'an University and the Great Luo Sect. 635
  • During the Western Expedition, Li Fei prohibited burning, killing, and looting by the Slaying Barbarians Army, ordered resources distributed to civilians, and sought to exploit popular resentment toward Western noble rule. 695

Foreign relations and strategic policy

  • The Great Blue Dynasty regards itself as the Central Empire and originally named its homeland the Central Continent after discovering the Western Continent. 166
  • It has historically balanced Daoism and Buddhism to prevent either religious power from overwhelming the imperial court. 514 635
  • The court's long-term strategy was to stabilize internal affairs, pacify the Northern Barbarians, grasslands, and desert nations, then launch a Western Expedition. 599
  • Its military modernization accelerated after Western firearms demonstrated that ordinary soldiers could threaten high-level Martial Warriors with advanced weapons. 543
  • The dynasty's overseas campaign relies on more than two hundred steel ships, large flying artifacts, and newly developed naval formations alongside its Martial Warriors and Imperial Guard Armies. 684 686
