The power of the Creation Gate was far too small compared to the vast Northern Region.
Even if the Yunxiao Sect and the Nine Refinement Pavilion were included, the number of Void Immortals barely reached over a hundred.
As for True Immortals, the number just barely hit double digits.
And how vast is the Northern Region?
The Creation Gate alone, traditionally encompassing the Flame River Dao and Baofeng Plain area, contains several countries, thousands of cities, and a population of several billion.
In contrast, the Dragon Sword Sect and the Wind and Rain Tower also govern billions of subjects.
In addition to similar smaller forces like the Yunxiao Sect and the Nine Refinement Pavilion, which one of their territories doesn't have tens of millions or even billions of inhabitants?
Adding it all up, just the Flame River Dao alone has a total population that exceeds thirty billion.
