Tianwai Village is a hidden sanctuary, shielded by an array that renders anything within its borders completely oblivious to the world outside. Even if the outside world were turned upside down, the village would remain undisturbed. However, every so often, the villagers venture out to survey the state of the world. They do so only to observe, never to interfere.
Back in the Era of the Human Emperor, when the Heavenly Demons invaded, the villagers were fully aware of the chaos, yet they did not intervene. Their sole mission was to remain in this place and guard the Five-Colored Stone. The Mother of Heaven and Earth had decreed that they were not to leave, regardless of what transpired beyond their borders. Furthermore, they bore internal seals; to remain away from the village for too long was to trigger these constraints, which meant certain death.
On this occasion, Fu Jue had only ventured out to gain a brief understanding of the situation before returning, not daring to linger. He spoke of the battles that had taken place over an epoch ago and described the current landscape of the Boundless.
