The Laws spread like a net; the Great Dao upheld the Heavenly Palace.
Throughout the Ninefold Heaven Palace, manifestations of the Great Dao were everywhere. But without reaching a certain level of cultivation, one could scarcely see the Heavenly Court's true nature or penetrate the laws and heavenly statutes beneath its magnificent splendor.
