Fuxi smiled slightly. "Qiye is an anomaly within the Demon Sect; he cannot be judged by conventional logic. Furthermore, the Daoist and Buddhist sects also have various incarnations of Dao Ancestors and Buddhas, which ultimately balanced the power dynamics in the Mountain-Sea World. Of course, five thousand years ago, I struck the Dharma body of the Primordial Demon Lord deep within the infinite starry sky with a single punch, causing a crack in his cultivation realm. The Primordial Demon Lord of today can no longer be compared to the Dao Venerables or the Buddha Ancestors. Although their realms are equivalent, that crack is his fatal flaw. Therefore, he manifested his divine abilities again to brand you with a Holy Mark, hoping you could grow to the level of a junior God Lord of the Demon Sect and eventually become his avatar, allowing him to repair that crack in his realm."
"I see." Chen Xuan nodded, finally understanding some of the reasons behind the great war of that era. "Then what about the alliance between the Witch God and the Demon Saint?"
"They had not yet attained the rank of God Lord at the time. Had they succeeded in killing me, the human race of the Great Xia Dynasty would no longer reign supreme over the other races. The evolution of the Heavenly Dao would have tilted toward the Witch and Demon tribes, propelling the Witch God and the Demon Saint to ascend to God Lord status. Hmph, the struggle for the Great Dao is nothing more than that."
