After the era when gods and humans lived together ended, the Shang Dynasty still practiced the worship of spirits and deities—whether in war, grazing, farming, or praying for rain—all required divine guidance.
It wasn't until the emergence of the Haotian Taoist Sect that worship of spirits gradually shifted to the worship of Haotian, the sky itself. And the Cultivation Method in the world also shifted from bloodline inheritance to cultivation based on the Spirit Vein.
Because of that ancient history involving the secretive origins of the Haotian Taoist Sect, successive Heads of the Haotian Taoist Sect spared no effort in covering up and eliminating information, keeping secrets locked away within Taihao Mountain. This also led to the stagnation of the Central Plains Dynasty's understanding of history prior to the Shang and Zhou dynasties, remaining fixed at the stage of myth and legend.
