At the dawn of the Primordial World, heaven and earth took shape, and the world was divided into three.
As the years passed, the Great Dao evolved.
There were sage emperors who brought peace to the world and the Five Emperors who established their rule; the Three Ancestors passed on their legacy, and the sages bestowed their blessings far and wide. Meng Po dispensed forgetfulness, and the Ten Halls governed the souls of the dead; Mount Tai held its fengshan rites, and Fengdu guarded the realm. The Celestial Emperor patrolled the heavens, and the Three Pure Ones subdued evil; the Tathagata commanded the sun, and the Two Sages rescued those in peril.
There were strange beasts wreaking havoc, demons craving blood, ill omens spreading corruption, and all manner of spirits and monsters; auspicious beasts trod the clouds, while dragons and phoenixes vied to shine.
The myriad races stood side by side, eager to pit themselves against heaven and earth and see who would reign supreme!
