After all, Cultivators followed the path of "swallowing a Golden Core into the belly, my fate is in my own hands, not the heavens'." The core principle was to gather all great power unto oneself. Cultivation in this realm, however, relied on Divine Formats and Faith Desire Force, tying it inextricably to this Great World Heaven.
This made it clear that the Celestial Lord's control over the Transcendents of this realm was an extreme opposite to the situation in the Taihua Spirit Ruins Realm, where the Cultivators were a flock concerned only with shearing the World Heaven for its bounty.
The Taihua Spirit Ruins Realm, having produced Nascent Soul Daoist Lords, was fundamentally unable to control them; its relationship with its Cultivators was more akin to a partnership. Aitira, this Great World Heaven, instead controlled its Transcendent Divine Spirits through the system of Divine Formats, a framework bestowed by the Celestial Dao.
Here, the Celestial Dao was the one and only boss.
