Capital: Xùyì (绪義)


Whereas normal families reigns usually lasted at an average of three generations, having either been conquered by other kingdoms or torn by its citizens within; The current Lái royal family, renamed upon conquest, have lasted more a current counting of 15 generations: ~500 years with its same everlasting prosper and glow. Láixù was said to have only the ability to survive so long due to the protection of a born immortal deity that had shielded the kingdom from any harm.
Merchants and traveling traders frequent Láixù for its trade conveniences, credibility, and citizens. The capital is across stable land, and soft rolling hills, as it’s kingdom borders stretch from Míngsì’s mountains to the north sea.

Míngsì (蓂嗣) (Central)
Capital: Sì Chéng (嗣城)


Míngsì is heavily concentrated within influential sects ran by equally influential families. The country has great fēngshuǐ all around the mountains and is known to be the spiritual core center of QīngMǐn. All prominent cultivation sects are known to be in Míngsì.
Its kingdom and towns are built strewn across mountains and rocky terrain. Yet it is also one of the most eye-catching kingdoms present, constantly flooded with great spiritual energy. The capital is built climbing up levels of a high mountain. The higher the peak, the more concentrated the energy is there, and with the increased altitude, it becomes harder for the common people to breathe higher they climb. Hence, most towns are set at the base of the mountains.

ShùHuáng (树煌) (South)
Capital: HuāXiāng (花鄉)


ShùHuáng is one of the calmest kingdoms, including large forests and great plains as the foundation for villages and towns built there. There is still quite an amount of land left for farming and agricultural purposes. This is kingdom is covered in open fields and is incredibly rural. It’s lined with rivers, great for plant irrigation, and has more than a few meadows.
The capital, HuāXiāng is covered with all types of flowers, making it a great sightseeing place to travel to and have a breath of fresh air. Everyone tends to be really humble and modest, even the royalty in ShúHuáng. Although ShúHuáng is the biggest country, word and news travels fast because of how interconnected all the towns are.

Níngdù (寧杜) (West)
Capital:  XīngDū (興都)


NíngDù was once a flourishing kingdom that stretched across the west. There was a period of time where the kingdom was ransacked with a series of famines and droughts. Which was then interpreted as ‘a punishment of god’ from the citizens of the land. The royal family grasped at straws and was barely pushing through with neighboring kingdom’s, ShùHuáng, help. Later on though,  the royal family of the land did nothing, the people revolted seeing them unfit.
Now NíngDù, in their times of desperation to add to their kindling rule, the royal family took help from someone else they considerably shouldn’t have. Further forces west, were expanding their adventures and land coverage, which eventually brought them to the country of QīngMǐn. Unlike their friendly neighbors, ShùHuáng, these forces further west were complete foreigners, and the citizens seeing how the royal family was succumbing to such strangers, were in quick agreement that they were trying to invade within. This was yet another cause that drove NíngDù to it’s fall, and it’s current ruinous state.

ChéngChún (程纯) (East)
Capital: ???


Although it’s terrain was a desert and hard to cultivate, the original settlers managed to survive and push through. It’s a land cloaked in mystery. Due to its mystery, many from the other kingdoms have conjured bedtime horror stories using ChéngChún as it’s base. When it comes to terrain, ChéngChún itself is a sandy desert land, struck with heavy and natural winds, common sandstorms branching and beginning anywhere across it.

Jīngshén Shìjiè (精神世界) (The Spiritual World)

17115960db616a6fbb34b4c49f80e1e2.jpg


The Spiritual World is one of the overlays QīngMǐn when it comes to dimensions. It exists almost similar to a faux realm, but in reality, takes base off the physical living place to an uncanny T. Although, unlike the physical dimension, the spiritual one contains pocketed abysses where only spirit residents are able to enter and leave. The Spiritual is one similar to Limbo for the deceased, neither ascending or descending because of their still intact mortal chains. For newly born spirits, ones that were cultivated out of accumulated qi and possess the vessel of an item, the spirit world is instead their living world, as the Yángjiān is ours.
