The Divine Path had long lain silent, for ten thousand years.
Across All Heavens and Myriad Worlds, the immortals and Buddhists had dominated both news and renown for nearly ten thousand years. Even the Demon Race and the Heterodox Sect had made more news than the Divine Path.
Had the Three Realms Great Thousand World not appeared, with the Golden Palace Heavenly Emperor standing supreme over the Three Realms, there might truly have been no news of the Divine Path left at all.
Even so, the eyes of All Heavens and Myriad Worlds remained fixed on the Three Realms Great Thousand World, on that illustrious Dao-Ruling True Yang who governed myriad lands, the Golden Palace Heavenly Emperor. As for Divine Path great thousand worlds such as the Nether Void Realm, the Purple Jade Realm, the Treasure Immortal World, and the Radiant Truth Realm, who would spare them another glance?
It was as though the Golden Palace Heavenly Emperor's emergence had drained away tens of thousands of years of fortune from the Divine Path worlds, leaving all its other great thousand worlds dim and lightless.
Yet the truth was otherwise.
There was a reason for the silence of the Divine Path worlds. And although they appeared silent, exchanges between them were extremely frequent behind the scenes.
The Heavenly Evolution Assembly mentioned by the Five Treasures Divine Lord, for instance, had been the great gathering for magical contests among the Divine Path's younger generation over the past ten thousand years.
The Heavenly Evolution Assembly took place once every thousand years, and prodigies from every Divine Path world could participate. It was not merely a gathering for them to discuss the Dao and demonstrate their arts, but also an occasion for the worlds to supply one another's needs and exchange resources and intelligence.
