Linghu Chong's generation sees the revival of the Sword faction. Linghu Chong becomes famous after he learns the Nine Swords of Dugu from the Sword faction elder Feng Qingyang. Since then, the Qi faction, headed by Yue Buqun, has been teaching the sect's members inner energy skills and other forms of martial arts while placing little focus on swordplay, for which the Mount Hua Sect is better known in the jianghu (martial artists' community). The Qi faction seized control of leadership of the sect and forced the Sword faction into exile. The division is caused by an internal conflict arising from a dispute over the Sunflower Manual by the founders of the factions.
The sect is split into the Sword and Qi factions, which focus on swordplay techniques and inner energy cultivation respectively. In The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, the martial arts of the Mount Hua Sect mainly comprise swordplay techniques and inner energy cultivation skills. The Mount Hua Sect is one of the Four Great Sword Sects alongside Emei, Kunlun and Diancang. His master, Mu Renqing, is the sect's leader and is reputed to be the best living swordsman in the jianghu (martial artists' community) at the time. In Sword Stained with Royal Blood, set near the end of the Ming dynasty, the protagonist, Yuan Chengzhi, is a member of the Mount Hua Sect. In the novel, the Mount Hua Sect is inferior to only the Shaolin Sect, Wudang Sect and Sun Moon Holy Cult. The novel's protagonist, Linghu Chong, is Yue Buqun's first apprentice. The Mount Hua Sect is part of the Five Mountain Sword Sects Alliance and Yue Buqun becomes the alliance's chief after defeating his predecessor, Zuo Lengchan of the Mount Song Sect. In The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, the sect's leader Yue Buqun is the sect's 13th-generation leader. In The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, set in the Yuan dynasty, the Mount Hua Sect is briefly mentioned to be one of the six leading orthodox sects in the jianghu. However, in wuxia fiction, these two sects do have any connection. It was founded in the Song dynasty by Hao Datong, one of the "Seven Immortals of Quanzhen", who also appears as a character in Jin Yong's Condor Trilogy. There is a real-life Mount Hua Sect which has hardly any association with martial arts. The sect appears in three of Jin Yong's novels. It is named after the place where it is based, Mount Hua. It is commonly featured as one of the leading orthodox sects in the wulin (martial artists' community). The Mount Hua Sect, also known as the Huashan Sect, is a fictional martial arts sect mentioned in several works of wuxia fiction. Fictional martial arts sect Mount Hua Sect
