For practitioners in the myriad realms, this was the first time they saw up close just how immensely beneficial it could be to have the Will of the Heavens as their backing.
Previous Wielders of the Will might have had close associates too, but for some, the eras are so remote that verification is impossible.
The several generations of the 'Heavenly Dao' that are closer in time are somewhat special; after proving their Dao and achieving immortality, there have hardly been any tales of them becoming someone's backing and bringing them benefits.
Daozi Heavenly Dao is an exception, having a shorter term in office, so let's set that aside for now.
The previous 'fat ball Heavenly Dao' appeared out of thin air. Practitioners across the realms couldn't even determine its origins, a real loner with naturally no one benefiting.
——If it had been a 'Confucian Sage' who had achieved immortality at that time, perhaps a large group of Confucians would have benefited.
