Zhao Wuya had only his primordial spirit left when he arrived before Chaos had even formed. After refining the Primordial Violet Qi, he comprehended the Three Thousand Laws. He waited until the Chaos Purple Lotus appeared, then used the lotus as his foundation and the violet qi as his soul to reforge his Dao body. After the world was created, he became an innate god-demon and slipped into the Primordial World. At Zixiao Palace, he took the last seat, drawing Hongjun's attention. During the Investiture of the Gods tribulation, he used the Purple Lotus to ward off the God-Beating Whip, keeping the human race from being named on the list.
