Art name: Great Splendor Dao Power Basic attribute: primal magical power Art category: source of ten thousand arts Affiliation: none Brief description: "There was something formed from the undivided whole, born before heaven and earth. Silent and vast, it stood alone and unchanging, moved through all things without exhaustion, and could be the mother of heaven and earth." "I did not know its name. I provisionally named it Dao Power and styled it Great Splendor. 'Great' signified its vastness; 'Splendor' signified its sublimity."
Great Splendor Dao Power, the supreme ultimate power, was the primal source of all magical power. It possessed none of the distinguishing traits or individual characteristics found at any level of the known attribute-based powers, yet possessed every quality they shared. These shared qualities were the simplest and most essential characteristics of all powers.
Possessing a certain degree of Great Splendor Dao Power could often allow one to withstand magical attacks of every attribute at the corresponding level, or breach magical defenses of every attribute at that level.
Recorded appearance: in Volume One, "Young Then, in a Thin Blue Robe," Zhang Xingyan, a youth from Raozhou, gazed at the river of stars and meditated atop Horseshoe Mountain on a summer night, entering that supreme celestial person realm of "no others, no self, no heaven, no earth." Together with the Immortal Spirit Qi of Horseshoe Mountain and the hidden mysteries within the White Stone upon which he lay, these converging opportunities finally endowed this ordinary youth with utterly extraordinary "Great Splendor Dao Power."
