In the primordial age, there were countless worlds, each ruled by a Martial Emperor.
Above the countless worlds stood the Mountain of Ten Thousand Worlds. On the mountain stood the Hall of the Martial God, where a god named the Peerless Martial God resided.
Every hundred years, the Martial Emperors of all the worlds had to pay homage to the Peerless Martial God in the Hall of the Martial God. Not a single Martial Emperor dared show disrespect.
Among all the worlds of the primordial age, the mightiest was called a god. Of all the beings in the myriad worlds, only the Peerless Martial God could be called a god.
Below the gods were the emperors.
