The distant Xingzhou, relative to Yuzhou.

Like Hezhou, Xingzhou is also one of the eight great states of the Earth Underworld.

The differences among these eight great states are quite significant. A state that has produced an emperor-level powerhouse in recent eras can be called a superior state.

Xingzhou still holds the title of a superior state today because the Demon Ancestor is a native of Xingzhou.
