Vermilion City is located within the Piercing Heaven Sect's domain, it's also the closest city to the sect and the one with a teleportation station. The city is surrounded by a mountainous range, with some peaks so high they seem to pierce the clouds, as if trying to piercing the heaven.
The city's name comes from the vermilion-colored diamonds scattered around its vicinity. At sunrise and sunset, the sun's light causes these diamonds to radiate a beautiful glow, making the surrounding mountains appear like a sky full of stars.
Due to its proximity to the Piercing Heaven Sect, only a three hour journey by carriage, the city attracts many demonic cultivators who aspire to join the most powerful force in Demon Territory and seek opportunities. As a result, Vermilion City is a gathering place for powerful cultivators from various backgrounds, all seeking the opportunities provided by the city and the sect.
