The Earthly Sovereign (Chinese: 地皇; pinyin: Dìhuáng) was the second legendary Chinese king after Pangu's era.
According to the "Basic Annals of the Three Sovereigns" (三皇本紀) in Sima Zhen’s supplement to the Records of the Grand Historian:[1] After he was born, the world was filled in chaos.
That year, the sun and the moon born from two eyes of Pangu, the stars from Pangu’s hairs couldn't move smoothly and correctly, which caused many days without sun, or many days with the sun shined throughout the whole day, or many dangerous fallen star accidents.
Dìhuáng's rule lasted eleven thousand years.
He created Mount Xiong'er (熊耳山 Xióng'ĕr Shān "bear ear mountain") and Mount Longmen (龍門山 Lóngmén Shān "dragon gate mountain").
