The Violet Mist Power (simplified: 紫霞神功, traditional: 紫霞神功, pinyin: Zǐxiá Shéngōng, jyutping: zi2 haa4 san4 gung1) was the Huashan School’s signature qi cultivation method in Laughing in the Wind. It was renowned throughout the jianghu as one of the finest internal cultivation methods.
Overview
The saying “Of Mount Hua’s nine skills, Violet Mist is foremost” (华山九功，紫霞第一) reflected the technique’s preeminence. It absorbed dawn’s purple qi and could be summoned later in combat. Yue Buqun mastered it as zhangmen of the Huashan School.
The technique blended Daoist energy work with martial application, allowing practitioners to develop profound internal strength while embodying the school’s ideal of harmonising spiritual cultivation and martial prowess.
