Background
The Taiyi Immortal Sect was the head of the Ten Immortal Sects and was regarded as the strongest sect in the Immortal Martial World. Its founding patriarch was Taiyi, who was unable to comprehend the supreme Great Dao laws within the Ancient Immortal Gate despite his stature. 137 229
The Three Immortals originated from the sect. Their legacy included the True Explanation of Taiyi, while the sect was also the source of the Immortal-Slaughtering Spear Technique. 128 137
Its disciples included reincarnated immortals, descendants of ancient bloodlines, and naturally born divine-body possessors. 137

Taiyi Immortal Formation
The Taiyi Immortal Formation was hailed as the number one immortal formation in the Immortal Martial World. Its core consisted of eighteen rune-covered pillars surrounding an immortal-artifact sword, which served as the formation artifact. 286 292
- When fully activated, it filled the sect with immortal qi and enhanced the blood vitality, true essence, and life force of sect members within its range. 286
- Saint Realm disciples could temporarily reach the first level of the Emperor Realm while empowered by the formation. 286
- Its restrictions also guarded the sect treasury. 292
- Zhou Cheng spent a month comprehending and taking control of the formation after the battle, then incorporated restrictions from the Nine Heavens Immortal Sword to increase its power. 292
Reputation
Although it stood first among the Ten Great Immortal Sects, its reputation declined after Tai Wu became Sect Master. Its disciples were described as domineering, and their conduct gave Xi Zhenhong a poor impression of the sect. 181
The sect's hostility toward Zhou Cheng escalated after he rejected Jiang Haidong's recruitment offer. Taiyi disciples attacked him during the Immortal Martial Tournament, while the sect placed a bounty of ten million high-grade spirit stones and ten million high-grade Dharma Crystals on information about his whereabouts. 203 204 211
Alliance with the Hundred Immortal Sect and Three-Eyed God Race
Tai Wu formed an alliance with the Hundred Immortal Sect and the Three-Eyed God Race to strengthen the sect's position and prepare for wider domination of the Immortal Martial World. 279 280
The alliance ceremony drew major dynasties, sects, and families to Taiyi Immortal Sect. It was interrupted when Zhou Cheng, the Nine Heavens Hall elders, and later the Demon Race army attacked the mountain gate. 281 286
- Hundred Immortal Sect — The second-ranked of the Ten Great Immortal Sects and Taiyi's principal ally in the attempted alliance. Its sect master, Yang Shu, was killed during the battle. 220 290
- Three-Eyed God Race — Allied with Taiyi before the assault, but was allowed to withdraw because Elder Ye owed a debt to its former patriarch. 280 287 291
- Demon Race — Tai Wu unsuccessfully tried to win over its clan patriarchs after they arrived under Zhou Cheng's command. 286
Destruction
The conflict began at Demon King Hall, where the Beast Ancestor led several hundred Taiyi experts and allied dynasty forces in support of his attempt to ascend the Demon King Throne. The sect's Taiyi Sword Formation was overwhelmed by Long Zhi and the chiefs of the Demon Race's strongest clans; the Beast Ancestor and the accompanying Taiyi experts were killed. 272 277 278
Zhou Cheng concealed news of the defeat long enough to assemble the Demon Race and Nine Heavens Hall armies for a direct assault. The Demon Race alone fielded 100,000 Saint Realm-and-above experts, vastly exceeding the sect's comparable forces. 278 280
Assault on the Mountain Gate
Zhou Cheng's group arrived during the alliance ceremony, killed the gate guards, and destroyed the Taiyi Immortal Sect's mountain gate. Sword Elder subsequently killed Nie Han in two moves. 281 283
Tai Wu activated the Taiyi Immortal Formation, but Nine Heavens Hall experts killed the formation's controllers. Once the formation failed, the sect's combat strength sharply declined. 286 288
Collapse and Aftermath
Tai Wu and several ancestors attempted to flee but were trapped by the Nine Heavens Formation. Tai Wu ultimately escaped through the Cosmos Ring's spacetime formation with some ancestors and disciples. 288 290
The remaining disciples were routed; Zhou Cheng spared those who surrendered and accepted allegiance. News of the sect's destruction rapidly spread throughout the Immortal Martial World. 290 291
Zhou Cheng later occupied the sect, took control of the Taiyi Immortal Formation and treasury, and resided there with his family and allies. Demon Race and Nine Heavens Hall forces nearly wiped out the sect's branches, while Tai Wu remained at large. 292 293 352
Relationships
- Nine Heavens Hall — Enemy force that joined Zhou Cheng in the assault; its elders destroyed the Taiyi Immortal Formation and helped defeat Tai Wu. 287 288
- Demon Race — Enemy force led by Zhou Cheng as Demon King; its united clans supplied the decisive numerical strength for the attack. 280 286
- Emperor Killing Palace — A rival among the Ten Great Immortal Sects; Tai Wu intended to destroy it before consolidating dominance over the Immortal Martial World. 279
- Hundred Immortal Sect — Former ally and second-ranked immortal sect; its forces were caught in the assault, and Yang Shu was killed. 280 290
- Three-Eyed God Race — Former ally permitted to leave the battlefield because of Elder Ye's connection to its previous patriarch. 280 287
- Zhou Cheng — Former recruitment target turned principal enemy; he led the forces that destroyed and occupied the sect. 202 203 278 292
