The Western Purple Immortal Clan, which resides year-round on the immortal islands of the Western Gate Pillar, comprises seventeen surnames, divided into three classes. Among them, the Taishi, Guanyuan, and Tianjing surnames belong to the first class and are also the supreme clans within the Western Purple Immortal Clan.
The clan that he had refined, named Gong Jing'er, belonged to the second class of the Western Purple Immortal Clan.
As for the two immortals he had previously encountered, they were of the third class.
However, although there were three classes, in reality, the difference between the second and third classes was not significant. The only reason for this division was simply because their own ancestors were not powerful enough.
