Primordial World

Biodata

Cosmology

Origin and Foundation

Pangu created the Primordial World rather than allowing it to arise naturally. His remains and the remnants of the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods gave it an exceptional foundation: most Great Thousand Worlds begin with only one complete Origin Great Dao, whereas the Primordial World began with forty-nine 436 508.

The Chaos Demon Gods’ Great Dao origins supplied its incomplete Great Daos, while their shattered companion treasures became material for Innate Spiritual Treasures. Pangu’s body, primordial spirit, treasures, and Great Dao origin likewise nourished the world 34 443 508.

• Pangu’s fate remains unresolved. The Heavenly Dao believes he perished, but neither it nor Bai Yu can explain his disappearance conclusively 508 684.
• Its potential exceeds its current development. Perfecting three thousand Origin Great Daos would satisfy a prerequisite for a Great Thousand World to transcend the Myriad Heavens and Worlds; this has not been achieved 531.
• Great Dao quantity matters. Although complete Great Dao power is supreme throughout Great Thousand Worlds, the number of Great Daos affects a world’s overall strength and foundation 352 429.

Source and Tributary Worlds

The Primordial World is the source whose influence produces countless similar worlds, including the Lotus Lantern World. These related worlds are compared to tributaries flowing toward a main channel 641.

• Related worlds are not exact copies of the source 641.
• A tributary that advances into a Great Thousand World merges into the source Primordial World rather than remaining independent 641.
• Primordial Stream novels reflect the source world’s course; they do not dictate it. The Heavenly Dao can change that course rather than follow a fixed literary plot 641.
• The Heavenly Dao’s script ends at the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, explaining why related worlds subsequently enter the Age of Dharma’s End 641.

Geography

Heavenly Dao and World Rules

Authority and Restrictions

The Primordial Heavenly Dao controls the world’s forty-nine complete Origin Great Daos and its cultivation system. It possesses overwhelming authority over the world’s course, including the ability to obstruct Dao attainment 483 508.

• Administrator, not creator: Despite assuming control in Pangu’s absence, it cannot safely rewrite the world’s foundations without risking collapse 592.
• Tribulations are an addition: The world originally had no tribulation setting; the Heavenly Dao added it as a foundational rule 592.
• Pangu’s legacy remains embedded: The Heavenly Dao seeks to erase his outward influence but cannot remove his fundamental Great Dao imprints 684.
• Interworld access is controlled: The Myriad Worlds Chat Group cannot transport Bai Yu out without the Heavenly Dao’s permission. Bai Yu actually travels through his system’s Myriad Worlds Gate 470.
• External world power can constitute invasion: Using the Limitless World’s Great Dao power inside the Primordial World would amount to that world invading it 320.

Fortune, Merit, and Karma

Divination

• The Primordial World’s overall future cannot be divined. An individual’s future can ordinarily be calculated only up to one hundred years ahead 732.
• The future continually changes, requiring repeated calculations rather than reliance on a single prediction 732.
• Tribulations, deliberate interference, and concealment treasures can render heavenly secrets unreadable 732.
• The world contains a River of Time, but no comparable River of Karma 567.

Cultivation System

The Primordial World’s Origin Immortal Dao System begins at the Thirteenth Order and provides a path through the Thirtieth Order. Ordinary Innate Beings are born as Heavenly Immortals rather than beginning as mortal cultivators 1 292 343.

Foundations and Sainthood

• Innate foundations strongly affect opportunity. Even exceptional effort cannot readily overcome differences in innate endowment, while the number of saintly positions is fixed 429.
• Three Flowers are restricted. Supreme innate foundations can ordinarily support ninth-grade flowers; the Heavenly Dao does not tolerate higher grades. Bai Yu’s twelve-grade flowers are an exception 344.
• Sainthood and Dao attainment are distinct. Sainthood is a position granted by the Heavenly Dao, not simply another name for independently attaining the Dao 531.
• Heavenly Dao Saints share the world’s fate. Their ultimate ceiling is tied to the Primordial Heavenly Dao and its power 511.
• The Innate Dao Body follows Pangu’s form. It is especially compatible with the world’s origin and suited to bearing the Great Dao, leading beings with widely different original forms to adopt it 350.

Inhabitants and Factions

Treasures and Resources

Treasure Classification

Innate Spiritual Treasures contain incomplete Origin Great Daos; Innate Supreme Treasures contain complete ones. Their restrictions must be refined to control their power 34.

Notable Treasures

• Taiji Diagram, Pangu Banner, and Chaos Bell — The three original Innate Supreme Treasures, transformed from the Pangu Axe and each containing multiple complete Great Daos 34.
• Jade Plate of Creation — Hongjun’s enlightenment treasure. Recording the manifested Space Great Dao made it a genuine Innate Supreme Treasure; it later contained nine complete Origin Great Daos 483 677.
• Huangzhong Plum — A Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Root planted on Penglai. Bai Yu avoided removing it because exporting its Wood Dao origin could provoke Heavenly Dao intervention 443.
• Enlightenment Tea Tree — A Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Root whose leaves aid comprehension of Origin Great Daos 494.
• Immortal Slaying Sword Formation — Luohu’s formation, whose killing power rivals an Innate Supreme Treasure without necessarily matching its other capabilities 615.

History

Dawn of Creation

Bai Yu transmigrated into the newly created world as an Innate Shore Flower. The Six Paths of Reincarnation and Yellow Springs Road had not yet appeared, making his flower origin puzzling even to him 1.

Fierce Beast Calamity

Ferocious Beasts repeatedly damaged the continent and Four Seas, consuming the world’s foundations through the cost of repair. Their destruction made their extermination beneficial to the world and earned Heavenly Dao Merit for their hunters 355.

After the race lost its strongest combatants, the Innate Divine Demons and major innate races completed the campaign within one era. Only tens of millions of scattered beasts remained, with the Grand Unity Golden Immortals already eliminated. The survivors ceased to be a priority once the victorious races claimed their spoils 413.

The aftermath brought temporary peace as cultivators and entire clans secluded themselves to consolidate their gains. With the common enemy removed, competition over territory and resources began to replace cooperation 424 459.

Rise and Fall of the Three Clans

Over ten thousand yuanhui, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans became so powerful that even Hongjun and Luohu avoided opposing them directly. Their wars also benefited cultivators pursuing Slaughter, Karma, and Destiny, encouraging hidden involvement by outside schemers 550 575.

The three clans’ fortunes eventually collapsed beneath overwhelming karmic debt, harming both existing members and their descendants. Ancestral Dragon sacrificed his body to nourish the earth, earning merit that offset part of the Dragon Clan’s burden 595 597.

Hongjun’s Attainment and Later Conflicts

Hongjun attained the Dao after signing a contract to become Spokesman for the Heavenly Dao. His announcement established “Sage” as the world’s title for Dao attainers and marked the end of the Dragon-Han Calamity 648.

He subsequently announced his intention to merge with the Dao, planning to leave worldly management to the future Six Saints while pursuing further Great Dao comprehension. By the later period, the Witch Clan, Demon Clan, and Immortal Alliance had emerged as the principal competing powers 702 739.

Bai Yu’s Position

Bai Yu used the world’s complete Great Daos as cultivation references while largely avoiding its struggles over fortune and authority. He proved his Space Great Dao against the world’s own Origin Great Dao and later unintentionally formed a Fate River that threatened to draw away part of its fate authority, prompting Heavenly Dao intervention 483 584.

Their coexistence rests on mutual restraint: Bai Yu avoids disrupting the world’s karma and destiny, while the Heavenly Dao tolerates his cultivation and travel. Unbeknownst to him for much of this period, it had long watched his movements and refrained from attacking because doing so repeatedly provoked a sensation of mortal danger 473 477 682.
