1. World view: Pei Family Continent (Peizhou)
This vast and eternal continent does not belong to the dynasty or heaven, but to the Pei family.
Since the end of the ancient era, when thousands of sects were destroyed and the gods retreated, there is only one giant clan left in the world - the Pei family.
The Pei family controls hundreds of millions of miles of mountains and rivers across the entire continent. It is divided into nine sects, thirteen branches, and seventy-two branches. The bloodline is strict and the hierarchy is locked.
The direct line is heaven, the collateral line is human, and the surname is ant.
There is only one iron law in this continent: the Pei family controls all things, and blood determines the superiority and inferiority.
Continental spiritual energy, secret realms, spiritual mines, inheritance, and heavenly favor are all distributed according to bloodline concentration.
The direct descendants are born with the bloodline spiritual seal, which speeds up their practice, prevents all laws from invading, and is unobstructed in secret realms.
The descendants of the collateral line have been trapped in poverty for half their lives, with meager resources and unable to access high-level inheritance throughout their lives.
And the Pei family, who has no status, is the most despicable existence in the entire continent. They do not record genealogy, do not recognize kinship, and no one cares about their life and death. They are even worse than an ant.
