Summary
Mount Hua, formerly known as “Western Mountain” and elegantly called “Taihua Mountain,” is one of the Five Sacred Mountains. Located in Huayin, Shaanxi Province, it borders the Qinling Mountains to the south and overlooks the Yellow and Wei Rivers to the north. It has been known since ancient times as “the most precipitous mountain under heaven,” and the Huashan Sect was a renowned and prestigious martial arts school. Unfortunately, after Yue Su and Cai Zifeng developed a rift due to differing martial arts philosophies, the Huashan Sect split into the Sword and Qi factions. Each faction held its own opinions, eventually becoming irreconcilable enemies, leading to internal strife and the near-total loss of its elite members. The Huashan Sect also lost its position as the leading sword sect among the Five Sacred Mountains. Currently, the Huashan Sect is led by Yue Buqun of the Qi faction. Yue Buqun is a master of the “Purple Cloud Divine Skill,” possessing profound internal strength. He is known for his humility and refined demeanor, earning him the title “Gentleman Sword” in the martial arts world. “I really am… lucky!” On Jade Maiden Peak, in a Huashan Sect disciple’s room, Nie Yun murmured as he lay on his bed.
