Wang Daoning's judgment on Xia Longyuan's cultivation was prompted by news he received from his contacts overseas.
At that time, the Heavenly God of Longevity Heaven had said to Xia Longyuan, "You have united the world to experience the process of controlling it, as a step for you to break through the Imperial Realm. Now that you've grasped the potential of mountains and rivers, and the realm is breached, you no longer pay attention to maintenance, as if uniting the world was just a key for you. Once the door is opened, the key can be discarded..."
And then there was another sentence, "But Xia Longyuan, you're wrong... Treating your own God Demon Gate with such a mocking and disrespectful attitude, to cast it aside like a worn shoe after crossing, will surely backlash against you. You achieved enlightenment by ruling the world, and when the world is no longer in your control, your foundation will surely be in chaos."
