## History

### Origin

Li Qiye's Grand Dao became the foundation for the most basic and commonly known cultivation laws, the Great Era Seven Laws.

Later generations had numerous beliefs regarding the origin of the seven mantras. One stated that it was passed down by an immortal. Another said that after the initial destruction, these methods descended from the heavens as a blessing to the inhabitants. Most believed in the first because of Blessed Dao Lord.

It is said back in the late stage of the chaotic era, a youth received instruction from an immortal who had descended. From then on, he became a supreme Dao Lord with the title of Blessed. Blessed created a sect and spread mantras that later on were known as the seven. Because of this, some of the future generations referred to these mantras as Laws of the Blessed.

Those with sufficient knowledge thought that the True Immortal Sect was falsely padding their own reputation. They knew that the seven laws have existed before Blessed Dao Lord. Cultivators and even Dao Lords have trained in these seven arts. They could be traced back to the first Dao Lord of Eight Desolaces, the “Duck's Egg Buyer”.

The era of chaos really weakened the cultivation world. Prosperity only returned during Blessed’s era. He then re-compiled and promoted them all over the land without ever claiming to have created the seven laws. Therefore, those in the know called them the **Seven Laws of the Golden Age** instead.

#### Current

At the start of Blessed Dao Lord’s era, both the mortals and cultivators studied the seven.

As the myriad races found prosperity using the dao, various Dao Lords began creating their own laws and mantras. Thus, people slowly abandoned the seven laws. The disciples from the bigger sects naturally wouldn’t pick these seven anymore. The seniors didn’t encourage this either.

In Myriad Dao Era, the seven were too common and ordinary. Anyone could learn it due to its simplicity. Moreover, both the cultivation speed and efficacy left much to be desired.

On the other hand, the new introductory mantras were incredible, especially the ones created by Dao Lords. In fact, just a random low-ranked golden mantra was better than the seven.

As time went on, fewer and fewer people trained with the seven. Eventually, only the mortals who couldn’t join any sect would pick them. Furthermore, people had different interpretations of the seven. This made them worse because the good and bad have been intermingled. Problems eventually arose.

In other words, a real original source of the seven without a single character changed was virtually impossible to find.

### Chaos

Li Qiye cultivated this merit law and deriving this new mantra engulfed him in chaos. This gestated his body. The myriad creations also harmonized with him, giving him plenty of life force. This mantra's cultivation sessions was akin to him walking in the three thousand worlds, gazing at the heavens and earth, drowning in the mortal coil, and entering the origin…

Chaos was a true dao enlightenment session, the right path for cultivation. Alas, people later on simplified this method and weakened their own comprehension.

Ultimate profound truth Primal Chaos Merit Law , was born in primal chaos, primal chaos in health/life!”

Chaos was one of the seven mantras. Most felt that it was too weak but after reaching a certain level, true masters knew that the mantras were quite capable. Alas, no one could cultivate them to their height. Doing so would allow them to crush any other mantras including the ones at the dao lord level.
