Laozi and Primordial Heavenly Venerate had their roots here. How could they possibly leave?
Tong Tian Cult Master thought for a moment, then spoke to Xiao Long with great solemnity.
"Fifth Brother, strictly speaking, you are not qualified to know about this. But for the sake of your saving the Jie Sect, I will explain it to you properly. In truth, the Investiture of the Gods World is nothing at all. Within the vast and boundless Three Realms, it can only be considered a tiny corner!"
Tong Tian Cult Master's words left Xiao Long utterly shocked.
Even the Investiture of the Gods World was merely a tiny corner of the Three Realms? How was that possible? Wasn't the Primordial World one of the few level-nine universes in the cosmos?
"Do not be surprised. Listen as I explain it slowly!"
Tong Tian Cult Master was not surprised when he saw Xiao Long's expression.
He gestured for Xiao Long not to panic, then slowly told him everything.
It turned out that a level-nine universe was nothing at all.
Most people in this world lived in a dream.
Why say that? Because most of the universes Xiao Long had learned of were actually born from a single thought of a supreme mighty being.
That mighty being was the Immortal Emperor!
What was an Immortal Emperor? The emperor of all immortals! A cultivator of the fourth step!
Immortals stood above gods!
Just like the Investiture of the Gods, those with poor talent were mortals, those of average talent were gods, and those with superior talent were immortals!
The Immortal Emperor was even more powerful than a Saint!
Saints were merely cultivators of the third step!
Earth Immortals through Quasi-Saints were all cultivators of the second step.
The first step was everything below Earth Immortal!
