Since Pangu created the world, followed by the rule of the Three Sovereigns and the order established by the Five Emperors, only then did we have the glorious age we see today.
However, during the desolate ancient times, there were many great calamities, and countless powerful beings perished in these cataclysms, which paved the way for the rise of the Human Clan.
For instance, the initial catastrophe of the Dragon-Han Era, the war between the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan, resulted in the near-total annihilation of both races.
The Dragon Clan of the Four Seas today is but a faint trace of the bloodline from the ancient times.
Then there was the ensuing war between the Witches and the Demons, in which the Witch Clan, rumored to be born from the last drop of Pangu's essence blood, possessed extraordinary strength and robust builds, as if they were naturally endowed with Vajra indestructible bodies.
All Twelve Ancestral Witches were top-notch powerhouses.
