Plot

While the Yuanjing Clan's influence was formidable, it did not go unchallenged in the diverse and competitive landscape of the north. To the east, the Qingfeng Clan's mastery over the subterranean world allowed them to extract and trade in rare metals and precious minerals, essential for the crafting of cultivation tools. To the south, the verdant gardens and alchemical expertise of the Hehua Clan yielded an array of herbal medicines and elixirs, each vial a coveted treasure promising healing and enhancement. Meanwhile, to the west, the Yinghao Clan's forges blazed into the night, their weapons and armor becoming symbols of might and artistry. Though rivals in commerce, these clans formed a complex web of interdependence, with each specializing in a trade that, while competing, also complemented the others, creating a robust economy of essential goods.
