No, it's not just one, but several.
After the Human Ancestor, there was the Flame Emperor.
But regrettably, both missed the best opportunities to rise due to unforeseen circumstances.
The Human Ancestor, who was supposed to rise after the Great Ancient Era, hovered on the edge of life and death for several Quantitative Calamities after being severely injured by Di Jun. While his injuries eventually healed, the time and opportunities he missed could never be recovered.
The Flame Emperor faced a similar fate. After pioneering the Way of Medicine, he astonishingly deduced methods to heal Heaven and Earth, reorganizing the Earth Vein to eliminate the Sha Qi between Heaven and Earth, restoring clarity to the cosmos.
Healing Heaven and Earth was an unparalleled merit. Without incident, the Flame Emperor should have risen and directly entered the Primordial Chaos realm.
