臣笑曰。濟苦經云。天地劫燒洞然空蕩。清氣為天濁氣為地。乃使巨靈胡亥造立山川日月如前。崑山飛浮容可迎人安山之上。若天地洞然山為火焚。義不獨立。如何迎取王人安山上乎。

Your servant laughs, saying: The Jiku jing says: 'When heaven and earth are burned in the kalpa fire, all is ablaze, empty, and desolate. The pure qi becomes heaven, and the turbid qi becomes earth. Thereupon, the Giant Spirit and Hu Hai are dispatched to create and establish the mountains, rivers, sun, and moon as before.' If Mount Kunlun flies and floats, it might conceivably allow people to be received and settled on top of the mountain. But if heaven and earth are ablaze and the mountain is incinerated by fire, logically it cannot stand alone; how could they receive and take up kings and people to settle them on top of the mountain?
