Ever since Hongjun Daizu began preaching the Mystic Sect's Great Dao at Zixiao Palace, the Mystic Sect had four direct disciples (the Sanqing and Nuwa), two recorded disciples (the two western Saints), and nearly three thousand disciples (the Innate Divine Demons who came to listen to the Dao).
Among them, the four direct disciples and the two recorded disciples of the Daoist Ancestor, totaling six people, all became Saints, known as the six Saints of the Heavenly Dao.
Within the nearly three thousand disciples, Donghuang Taiyi possessed an unparalleled talent, Slayed Three Corpses to achieve Dao, and stepped into the realm of the Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial. Thereafter, Di Jun condensed the Fate of the Heavenly Realm within himself, similarly stepping into the realm of the Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial.
Apart from these two, none of the remaining disciples of the Daoist Ancestor achieved Dao. But this does not mean their strength was weaker.
