Overview
The Tower of Enlightenment (通天塔, Tōngtiān Tǎ) is a central tower structure within Jixia Academy in Honor of Kings: World, confirmed by Baidu Baike primary text. Its Chinese name literally means "Tower Reaching the Sky" and is consistent with Chinese architectural and mythological traditions of tall towers serving as both observation posts and symbolic connections between the earthly and celestial realms. The Tower of Enlightenment is described as the location where a creature called 云蚕 (Yuncan, "Cloud Silkworm") resides.
Role in Jixia Academy
The Tower of Enlightenment is one of the named landmarks within Jixia Academy. Baidu Baike specifically places 云蚕 (Yuncan / Cloud Silkworm) at the tower, suggesting it is a site of significance either as a training location, a lore-reveal zone, or the origin point of a specific questline or Huanling. The "Enlightenment" framing fits the broader Jixia Academy theme of scholarly cultivation toward deeper understanding of the Flow and the world.
