In the beginning of the universe, before the primordial chaos was divided, the Goddess descended to earth, known as the Creator Goddess. She split the primordial chaos, and the pure Yang elements rose to become the heavens, while the turbid Yin elements sank to become the earth. She used her eyes to become the sun and moon, her hair to become the stars, her bones to become mountains and rivers, her blood to become lakes and seas, and her spiritual source to create all things in the world. Thus, the primordial world was first formed, and all things began to emerge.

She divided this primordial world into five realms: the Realm of Gods, the Realm of Humans, the Realm of Demons, the Realm of the Underworld, and the Realm of Monsters. Among them, the Realm of Gods is located beyond the other four realms, at the other end of time and space, a pure and flawless sacred land full of divine power and wisdom.

Only those who have cultivated to the level of the Carefree Divine Mirror can overcome numerous obstacles and step into this sacred realm to share eternity with the Creator God and all the other deities.

Later, the creator god used his divine essence to give birth to four sons, namely Luyao, Yexu, Canaan, and Xuanying, who were later revered as the Four Ancient Gods.

These four deities, who respectively governed the human realm, the demon realm, the underworld, and the monster realm, established the original order and balance between heaven and earth.

After giving birth to the four gods, the ancestral god's physical body transformed into dust in the wind, and his spiritual essence once again merged into chaos, becoming the source of all things' growth.

Among the beings in the four realms are humans, demons, the underworld, and monsters, all of whom were formed from the spiritual essence of the creator god and were the early humans. Due to differences in region and destiny, they each embarked on different paths of fate.

As time passed, the seven emotions and six desires grew in people's hearts. Greed and desire spread like wildfire, uncontrollable. The former harmony between different tribes was replaced by the struggle for interests. Swords flashed and war raged. The once peaceful and primordial land was gradually shrouded in bloodshed and chaos.

The four gods also clashed over protecting their own people, causing the heavens and earth to change color and the universe to turn upside down. After a great battle, all four gods were severely injured, and the primordial world was devastated and all living things withered because of their struggle.

Upon witnessing this scene, the four gods realized the grave mistake they had made and understood that only through unity and understanding could they restore peace and prosperity.

Therefore, the four gods each took out a wisp of spiritual energy and created four new clans, named Xiling Clan, Nalan Clan, Guifang Clan, and Tushan Clan, to urge and influence the people of the prehistoric world and quell the conflicts.

Afterwards, the four gods returned to the divine realm to recuperate their spiritual energy and vowed never to set foot in the primordial land again. Thus, the Primordial Era came to an end.

The Xiling, Nalan, Guifang, and Tushan clans dispersed to various regions to rescue and educate the surviving people. They lived on air and dew, multiplied and thrived, and called themselves the four races of the divine descendants. Because the four races of the divine descendants were transformed from the spiritual essence of the gods, their numbers were extremely small in the early stages and their lifespans were extremely long. After their lifespan ended, they could directly ascend to become gods.

However, during the long process of education, they were inevitably influenced by the seven emotions and six desires, and their innate spiritual energy gradually dissipated. Later, a small number of the gods intermarried with other races. Although the number of gods increased, their own spiritual energy became increasingly impure, and their lifestyles gradually became no different from those of other races. Thus, the prehistoric world entered a period of coexistence among the four races.

Thousands of years later, the number of those among the four races of the divine descendants who could ascend to godhood after death gradually decreased. Some wise individuals began to make elixirs and refine medicines, study cultivation methods, and emulate their predecessors in cultivating themselves, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and drinking morning dew and sweet spring water. Some even succeeded by chance. From then on, the number of people who cultivated and ascended to godhood increased day by day, and the divine realm became as lively as the original primordial world. The primordial world gradually recovered to the prosperous scene of the ancient times, which is known as the ancient period.

Tens of thousands of years later, when the Underworld King Canaan was traveling through the stars, his spiritual essence was tainted by the Xuan Yin evil energy, and he fell into demonic ways, losing his true nature. He led the Gui Fang clan to attack the Divine Realm, attempting to unify the Five Realms and become the ruler of this world. In the end, Lu Yao, Ye Xu, and Xuan Ying used their last bit of divine power to seal the spiritual essence of the Gui Fang clan and others in the endless void, which later generations called the Ghost Realm. The Ghost Realm is also the place where souls return to their resting place, and it is said that once you enter, you can never leave.

After this battle, the gods perished, the gates to the divine realm were closed, and the ancient era came to an end.

Legend has it that the Demon-Subduing Blade is the weapon of the Flame God, one of the Ten Great Generals under Lu Yao. It possesses destructive power and can destroy demons.

"There's such a piece of ancient history! You are truly knowledgeable!"

A young boy watching the match spoke with amazement, looking at the old man with eyes full of admiration.

"Alright, the match is about to begin..."

The old man's words were gentle yet powerful, calming the turmoil in the young man's heart caused by the shock, and gradually quieting the surrounding crowd, who then focused their attention on the arena where the competition was about to begin.
