The Qishan Wen Clan (岐山温氏, Qíshān Wēn Shì) was a Cultivation Clan based in Nightless City, Qishan.
Uniform[]
The robes worn by cultivators of the Qishan Wen Clan are white with red hems and sun motifs. High-ranking cultivators wear these "sun robes" with flames around the sleeves and collar.[1]
History[]
Among the cultivation world, there was a countless number of sects and clans, exceeding even the number of stars in the sky. And, among these, there was a titan which stood above the others without a doubt—the Qishan Wen Clan.[2]
The Qishan Wen Clan was founded by Wen Mao, the first cultivator to switch from the school-based system of cultivation to a bloodline-based system. This was the beginning of the current Cultivation Clan system, built around extended clan families.[3]
The third leader of the Qishan Wen Clan erected a Wall of Incantations around the Burial Mounds after failing to purge the place of its resentful energy.[4]
At the height of its power, there were no clans that could compare to the Wen Clan's number of disciples, power, land, or magical tools. Many cultivators took supreme honor in being a foreign disciple to the Qishan Wen Clan.[2]
However, under Wen Ruohan, the Qishan Wen Clan becomes tyrannical, committing atrocities such as the burning of the Cloud Recesses and massacre of Lotus Pier. This prompts the four other great clans to unite in the Sunshot Campaign to overthrow the Qishan Wen Clan. After Qishan Wen Clan's defeat, Nightless City becomes deserted almost overnight. Most of the few surviving members are abused and eventually killed.[5][6]

- They own Dire Owls, mist-like beasts who serve as spies.
Trivia[]
- The Qishan Wen Clan was defined by grandeur. They used the sun as their motif, signifying that they could "compete with the sun for radiance, match the sun in longevity”.[2]
