Yuan's Ascension

"Is it because of Eldritch Progenitor Hou Tu and the Heavenly Imperator?" Wu Yuan couldn't help but ask.

The intelligence archives had mentioned similar information, but did not go in-depth.

"Yes. I was originally an eternal lifeform who rose to prominence in the Eldritch Court Universe," Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang said softly. "After achieving eternity, it took nearly seven samsara cycles of heaven and earth before I finally attained the position of Eldritch Progenitor at the end of the cycle before last.

"Then, Eldritch Progenitor Hou Tu used her supreme divine abilities to make me compatible with the essence of the Ling Jiang Universe, ensuring I wouldn’t be rejected as a foreign being. This allowed me to take over from the previous Eldritch Progenitor of the Ling Jiang Saintdom, establishing a Saintdom in the Ling Jiang Universe at the beginning of the last samsara cycle of heaven and earth." Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang shook his head.

"Such heaven-defying power is beyond even the Dao Masters. Only Eldritch Progenitor Hou Tu and the Heavenly Imperator could accomplish this."

"The cycle before last?" Wu Yuan was secretly shocked.

He recalled Great Eldritch Kua Fu saying that Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang had attained his position as an Eldritch Progenitor in the last samsara cycle of heaven and earth. Now it seemed that there was a slight discrepancy. To be precise, Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang had become the master of a Saintdom in the last cycle.

But after thinking about it, this was understandable. The current Great Eldritch Kua Fu was, after all, only an Overlord, and might not be privy to all the ancient secrets.

Master of a Saintdom? Wu Yuan pondered thoughtfully.

From what he understood, there were typically three conditions for establishing a Saintdom in a universe.

First, one had to be a lifeform nurtured by that universe. Second, one's age could not exceed nine samsara cycles of heaven and earth. Third, one had to be a True Saint Eternal at least.
