Introduction to the Nine Heavens Mother Stone: It is said that in ancient times, there were nine heavens, and there was a God on the eighth heaven, but there was no one in the ninth heaven. Since the God of the Ninth Heaven is the God among Gods, and the God of the Eighth Heaven all wants to be the God of the Ninth Heaven, and their abilities are equal, who should be the one? A heavenly man came up with an idea, asking each of the eight gods to choose a stone, mark it with a mark, stand on the first level of the sky and throw it towards the earth. Whoever hits the stone deeply will be the Lord of the Nine Heavens. The eight gods smashed the stones to the ground with all their strength. Strangely enough, as soon as the eight stones hit the ground, they embraced each other and melted into one, making it difficult to distinguish between high and low. Reluctantly, when they were about to leave, they suddenly heard loud noises coming from the huge stone that was melted into one body, and slowly opened seven cracks in the middle. Golden light shone, auspicious clouds rose, and a golden man walked out of the cracks in the stone. When the eight gods saw him, they knelt down involuntarily and worshiped him as the ancestor of the Nine Heavens. The golden-bodied man crossed the river in one step, slapped his palm on the ground, and left the "Sacred Seal of the Nine Heavens Ancestor". Then, with a move from Jiutian Tianzu, a golden dragon flew from not far away. The golden man lifted the eight gods up, protected them on the dragon's back, and went up to Jiutian. Later, the Lord Jiutian sent his eldest son Qianzu to the lower realm and was named King of Man (also known as King Pu). He went to the place where he was born to multiply and live, and became the ancestor of the Gelao people. "The barbarian king Gelao opened up wasteland and chopped grass" has been passed down from generation to generation, and this has become a holy place for Gelao people to worship their ancestors.
