He Bo.
In the mortal world, most monster creatures dwelling in rivers and lakes were regarded as "river gods," and people built shrines and erected God Statues to worship them.
But in the Epoch River, "He Bo" represented a mysterious old fellow.
This title belonged solely to that old fellow.
He Bo was mysterious because he was like the "river god" of the Epoch River, watching over its cycles of change throughout his life.
As for how powerful he truly was, no one knew.
Indeed, the vast majority of gods in this world did not even know that He Bo existed!
One could only imagine how mysterious that old fellow was.
Back when Li Fuyou had roamed the Epoch River, he had encountered He Bo once.

As he spoke, he smacked his lips and swallowed his drool, looking as obscene as could be.
Until he saw Li Fuyou, whereupon the old fellow grabbed Li Fuyou's sleeve and cried out excitedly, spouting absurd nonsense.
Things like, "The heavenly way's cycle of retribution is never wrong—I've finally waited for you!"
"I thought All Heavens would march completely toward their end, but you've come, and everything will become different!"
"Do you know how bitterly I've waited for you?"
...In short, at their first meeting, He Bo's lecherous, crazed appearance left an extremely deep impression on Li Fuyou, who promptly kicked the old fellow pestering him into the air.
Only later did Li Fuyou learn that this old fellow was one of the most mysterious eccentrics in the Epoch River, seemingly knowing everything about it like the back of
