"The reason for my reincarnation is related to a profound upheaval of heaven and earth in ancient times," Hunyuanzi slowly began, his voice seeming to come from the distant depths of time and space. "Back then, the world of cultivation was at its peak, with a hundred schools of thought contending and countless sects standing tall. Every sect possessed its own unique cultivation system and heritage. As one of the oldest sects, the Ancient Five Elements Sect has always been dedicated to studying the mysteries of the Five Elements Power and maintaining the balance of heaven and earth."
A trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes. "At that time, the Dao of Heaven was natural and harmonious, without deliberate distortion or bias. All kinds of cultivation systems could develop equally and peacefully coexist."
"Yet peace is always short-lived," Hunyuanzi's voice suddenly turned heavy. "About six thousand years ago, a meteorite suddenly flew from beyond the heavens and crashed into the land of Central Prefecture. This should have been the most ordinary celestial phenomenon, but because of the mysterious substance contained within that meteorite, the landscape of the cultivation world was completely altered."
