This sentence "双手劈开生死路, 一刀斩断是非根." is actually not any decree issued by the Emperor, but a Spring couplet.
It was said to be shortly after the founding of Great Yan.
Emperor Taizu had personally written this couplet for a butcher's family during an incognito visit over Chinese New Year.
It not only matched the butcher's profession of slaughtering and carving pork but also had an imposing momentum, with an extraordinary underlying intent.
It became the talk of the town for a while and was widely circulated among the people.
In just a little over a year since Great Yan had been established, this meritorious founding Emperor had his Imperial Mausoleum excavated and his corpse stolen by the "Corpse Son".
At this moment, with "Speaking brings the law," he actually invoked the majestic power to cleave a "path of life and death" in this dead-end of the Underworld.
Crack—!
With his hands parted, the Great Yan Ancestor tore open the boundary of life and death.
