To guard against anything unexpected.
The Jade Emperor at the time had even specifically dispatched Emperor Gouchen, Lei Zhenzi!
This was an expert in the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal realm.
Back then, Primordial Origin Golden Immortals had not been as commonplace as they were in the current Primordial World.
But precisely because of that, every one of them from before the Zhou Dynasty's fall belonged to a time when the Primordial World still barely retained its primordial state and had not yet completely collapsed.
Every Primordial Origin Golden Immortal from before that era would, by the standards of the present age, have been a genuine fourth-tier expert at the very least.
Lei Zhenzi had even reached the upper end of the third tier of Primordial Origin Golden Immortals!
The gods of the Heavenly Court had considerable confidence in Lei Zhenzi.
This age was nothing like the Shang Dynasty of old.
The Shang Dynasty back then had represented the true pinnacle of mortal dynasties!
The General-in-Chief of a single pass had possessed at least Golden Immortal cultivation!
And at a major strategic pass!

That ruthless man had done only one thing, but that single deed had made his name ring through the ages!
He had slain a god!
Of course, it had not been some mighty deity, merely a faction with an early Primordial Origin Golden Immortal
