- Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin tribes — Three former ruling tribes whose power was broken during the Dragon-Han Primordial Calamity 21.
Cultivation Environment
- The Great Desolation contains renowned cultivation sites, with accounts speaking of seventy-two grotto-heavens and thirty-six blessed lands 4.
- Spiritual roots, magical treasures, and Heavenly Dao Merit are heavily contested because they directly affect a cultivator's ability to comprehend laws and advance in cultivation 17 24 46.
- Great powers commonly pursue the path to Sainthood through Hongjun's teachings, the Severing the Three Corpses method, Primordial Violet Qi, or alternative cultivation systems 13 32 33.
- The world is repeatedly shaped by large-scale tribulations, particularly the struggle between the Witch and Demon Clans 2 24 30.
