Three Realms Great Thousand World, South Heaven Gate.
The South Heaven Gate differed from the other three gates of east, west, and north.
The Eastern Heaven Gate was controlled by the Eastern Heaven Daoist Sect and faced the East Sea and the Eastern Continent. Other than the immortals and gods of the Eastern Heaven Daoist Sect, few others found it convenient to pass through. The Western Heaven Gate, meanwhile, stood on the West Sea, right beneath the watchful eyes of the Western Heaven Buddhist Sect, so naturally the Heavenly Court found it difficult to place much importance on it.
Though the Northern Heaven Gate stood in the North Sea, where neither Daoists nor Buddhists held sway, and the North Sea Dragon Clan and Demon Race of the North Region Continent were rather unrestrained, the north, compared to the east, west, and south—especially the east, blessed by nature, and the west, rich in treasures—was a bitterly cold wasteland. Naturally, the Heavenly Court would not tilt too many of its resources northward.
The South Heaven Gate was different. Located in the South Sea, it had the Heavenly Court at its back, the Eastern Heaven Daoist Sect to one side and the Western Heaven Buddhist Sect to the other. It possessed the resources of both Buddhism and Daoism, as well as the Heavenly Court's focused attention. Moreover, the entire south had always been a place where humans, gods, ghosts, demons, immortals, Buddhas, and sacred beings gathered. Thus, the South Heaven Gate naturally became the greatest hub of operations in the entire Three Realms, as well as the place where the Heavenly Court displayed its majesty.
