But after the Primordial World had endured the sedimentation of countless ages, nourished by spiritual energy as vast as the sea and sustained by fields of spiritual roots and dazzling treasures, the qi of Heaven and Earth had once again become abundant. The Primordial World of that time had long since passed through the glorious age when Saints descended into the world and Dao Ancestor Hongjun opened the Zixiao lectures three times. The methods of cultivation had spread throughout the world, especially the profound art of severing the Three Corpses, which pointed directly to the Origin of the Great Dao and allowed cultivators to clear away the mist and glimpse the true form of the Heavenly Dao. Soon after, the Witch Clan and Demon Race emerged like thunder from a clear sky. The two powers stood side by side, pushing the overall strength of the Primordial World to an unprecedented peak. Great experts appeared in droves, their divine abilities peerless, far surpassing those of the Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation. Unfortunately, prosperity was followed by decline. The Witches and Demons were both gravely wounded in that epoch-shaking war and withdrew in disgrace, abandoning their position as rulers of the Primordial World.
Kong Xuan raised the corners of his lips slightly, turned toward the Jade Emperor, and said in a clear voice, "My teacher has instructed: His Majesty is the Heavenly Emperor, who governs the Myriad Worlds, commands countless Immortal Beings, rules the vast universe, enlightens immeasurable living beings, promotes heavenly principles, bestows heavenly virtue, creates all things, saves all spirits, weighs the affairs of the Three Realms, and commands all living creatures. He is the supreme Divine Lord above the myriad heavens. The Four Seas should naturally bow their heads and submit!"
The Jade Emperor's expression brightened with delight when he heard this.
