The Primordial World's countless years of accumulated foundation couldn't compare to the three hundred years these women had spent in the Heavenly Machine Tower.
This had completely shattered the worldview of all living beings in the Primordial World.
Even more bizarrely, the same proved true at the level of Sages.
Once one reached the level of a Sage, every step forward became immensely difficult.
