In truth, Luohu's World-Destroying Black Lotus was not the only treasure capable of suppressing karmic debt. Minghe's Karmic Fire Red Lotus could do so as well.

As for dominating the Primordial World? Attaining the Dao through providence?
None of the three still entertained such thoughts.
It was not that
