History

Intervention in the Ghost Mist Forest

The Tianyue Sect entered Liang Province amid the struggle over the Ghost Mist Forest. Its Foundation Establishment Late Stage disciples were stationed at the Yuanyang Sect outpost, while its scouts searched the forest with Dharma Artifacts and Divine Sense surveillance. Their arrival added a third major force to the conflict surrounding the forest's secrets 382 388.

The sect took a leading role in breaking the restrictions on the Mysterious Nether Branch Hall's stone gate. Its Array Masters worked through the gate's layered formations, and a Tianyue-led expedition entered the hall after the final restriction was opened 394 400.

Tianyue Sect initially monopolized the Branch Hall's monitoring, defensive arrays, Array Masters, and personnel. After a jade bead vanished from the area under its sole control, the Yuanyang Sect used the failure to secure shared access and guard duty within the Branch Hall 410.

Expansion into Liang Province

The sect established a permanent materials shop in Wulin Marketplace, nominally for trade but also positioned to observe local traffic, goods, communications, and defensive arrangements. The store was placed beside the Patrol Squad's duty station, allowing the marketplace to monitor Tianyue personnel in return 412.

After the Yuanyang Sect began withdrawing from mineral veins and spirit fields, Tianyue Sect rapidly occupied the vacated sites. Within half a month, its Liang Province strongholds increased from three to more than a dozen, extending across central and western Liang Province 506.

Two Yuanyang Sect Golden Core Elders later led their followers into a full merger with Tianyue Sect, handing over sect tokens, core manuals, and mineral-vein deeds. Tianyue Sect subsequently took over most former Yuanyang mineral veins, spirit fields, and marketplace administration 526 533.

Spirit Transformation and Upper-Realm Contact

The sect completed an ultra-long-distance teleportation array and used Tianyue Marketplace's enhanced Spirit Gathering and Defense Arrays to attract cultivators from other provinces and the Outer Sea 466 467.

Its Sect Master succeeded in a Spirit Transformation breakthrough and entered the upper realm through a Spatial Passage above the Tianyue Mountain Range. The passage continued releasing high-density spiritual qi into the lower realm 574.

At the Ascension Ceremony, an upper-realm decree appointed Xuanpu as Tianyue Sect's temporary manager. The Mingyuan Sect later assumed authority over Spatial Passage maintenance, transfer approvals, and material scheduling, while ordering the construction of a formal lower-realm outpost 575 588.
