Chapter 299: Chapter 267: Three Years in the World!

These recent days, Hongtian Great Saint had encountered and learned much within the Void Sky Domain, especially about the true and terrifying aspects of the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, greatly broadening his knowledge. He also had meetings and discussions with a few other divine beings in Huatian City.

All of this he shared with them, leaving the Martial God Palace Master, the Old Mansion Master, and other divine beings of the Five Great Domains in considerable shock.

Who would have thought that in the Void Sky Domain, the complete Dao of the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms would exist, whereby cultivating there could make one’s own Dao complete, mend flaws, and truly become powerful?

They also hadn’t anticipated that there were so many aspects to the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms; their cultivation levels from the Innate stage truly correspond to Half-god to Martial God, Divinity Transformation to Heavenly God, and Saintly Treasure to Divine.

However, they had never known this, and the path of cultivation extended far beyond these few levels; the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms were so vast and immense, having already witnessed the emergence of exceptional beings surpassing the divines, transcending reincarnation, reigning supreme.

There even existed truly world-shaking figures, known as Great Powers, whose mere gestures could pluck stars and seize moons, their might boundless, powerful as the invincible beings on the Tiandu Continent, considered formidable in the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, yet negligible compared to those supreme entities.

Naturally, such world-shaking Great Powers were exceedingly rare, akin to the singular divinities of the Tiandu Continent, not likely to appear frequently.

Indeed, the power of the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms far surpassed their measure countless times, constituting a truly magnificent and boundless great universe, a Great World.

On another note, the Five Great Domains to which the Void Sky Domain’s Huatian City belonged were all a frenzy, with major powers boiling over, even startling numerous nearby Great Domains, drawing their intense focus.

This wasn’t merely due to Donghua Haoyi being the scion of the Donghua Family; if it were just that, it wouldn’t attract such significant attention. The key point was that as a scion of the Donghua family, he was also a real Young Great Ruler.

What defines a Young Great Ruler?

It refers to an existence that can be called King among the younger generation, where one must cultivate one’s Primordial Spirit, Physical Body, Divine Arts, speed, attack power and other aspects to an extremely high level before they can be called a Young Great Ruler.

It was an extremely prestigious title among the younger generation, as a king among peers, a title nobody from the younger generation dared to claim for themselves without public acknowledgment.

How vast are the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, with countless races and innumerable sentient beings within each Great Domain, far surpassing a billion, and that was a conservative count.

With the multitude of sentient beings across the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, merely the younger generation within each Great Domain was countless. Those who stood out as geniuses were countless, yet how many could truly be called Young Great Rulers?

Often a Great Domain might not give rise to even one; sometimes, one or two might emerge from several Great Domains.

As for Huatian City and the corresponding Five Great Domains, each domain was far vaster and more colossal than the Tiandu Continent, but the only young ones who could be called kings were Donghua Haoyi of the Donghua family and Liuu Qinghua, a disciple of Liuu Mingwang—merely these two individuals, which was telling.

Invincible among kings, this was the widely circulated saying among the younger generation, representing their ultimate strength, unrivaled.

Especially Donghua Haoyi, who was hailed as a Heavenly Pride King who could possibly walk in the steps of Donghua Taiyi, the peerless ruler of the Ancient Era, on the Emperor’s path, invested with the thick hopes of his clan, and equally possessing supreme strength.

His reputation was not confined to the Five Great Domains; indeed, his fame spread across dozens or even hundreds of Great Domains centered around the Five Great Domains, marking him as an extremely formidable king.

Yet unexpectedly, he was defeated so soon.

It’s worth mentioning that during the mysterious young king Yue’s final duel with Donghua Haoyi, it seemingly recreated the battle from the Ancient Era between the peerless ruler Donghua Taiyi and the divine being who defeated him.

The same Summoning Heaven Technique against the Invincible Finger!

The same defeat.

Everything was just as in the Ancient Era, unchanged to the slightest.

Yue, the name of the mysterious young king, seemed somewhat delicate like a girl’s, but the strength displayed was terrifying, rising as a supreme King Star in the Five Great Domains and even the surrounding domains, capturing the nerves of many, especially igniting the fiery War Intent of the younger generation’s prides.

Because today, the struggle for the Emperor had once again begun; all who aspired to this path would become each other’s rivals, including the mysterious king Yue, certainly considered a powerful great adversary.

"Yue, huh? Defeated Donghua Haoyi, although it’s heard that a boosting Secret Technique was used, indeed very extraordinary, another dazzling King Star has risen on the path to Emperor."

Many were exclaiming, as if witnessing the rise of a world-conquering figure.

Unfortunately, the mysterious young king, Yue, completely disappeared from the public eye after that battle. It was as if a meteor had briefly shone with a blazing brilliance before vanishing entirely.

Despite numerous efforts by the major powers of the Five Great Domains to locate him using countless means, they astonishingly found no trace of his existence or other disappearances. This enigmatic Yue seemed to have suddenly appeared and just as suddenly disappeared, giving rise to many unfounded rumors.

Meanwhile, after Ye Chen’s return, he secluded himself for a full ten days before recovering.

In that battle, he had used the Combat Saint Technique, a Forbidden Level Dao Divine Power meant only for those with the Combat Saint Body. His Primordial Spirit was inherently weak and had difficulty bearing the technique, and he also needed ten days to recuperate due to the aftereffects of the Fighting God Seal.

Naturally, he had no idea of the significant disturbance he had caused in the Void Sky Domain, but after that incident, he never set foot in the Void Sky Domain again.

Years passed quietly, and time flowed on, with the Dao evolving.

Three years blinked by.

Three years, neither long nor short, yet enough time for much to happen.

During this period, the Trial Gate became a regular haunt for several Supreme Divine beings. The Hongtian Great Saint, Martial God Palace Master, the ancestors of the Three Great Empires, and the Supreme Old Mansion Master each successively invited the Ancient Heroes to help open the Trial Gate, entering the Void Sky Domain in batches.

They were exploring, understanding the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, and also using the complete Dao of the rich Void Sky Domain to mend their own Dao deficiencies, thereby becoming complete.

Undoubtedly, this led to a leap in strength; after completing their Dao, they all ascended in realm, honing their powers to become even more formidable.

Indeed, the Void Sky Domain was a treasure trove for them.

These individuals had all become Saints under incomplete conditions, all truly exceptional talents of their kind. Once they left the special world of the Tiandu Continent and the specific environment of the complete Dao field of the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, they received tremendous enhancements. Their potential was fearsome, and their futures limitless.

In the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, such individuals were akin to Ascenders, representing brilliance. Historically, many unparalleled powerhouses were Ascenders, and they discovered an ancient, predominant force that ruled the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, ranking among the mightiest, known as the Ten Thousand Realm Palace, formed by Ascenders.

Over these two years, their power saw a terrifying increase. Although they hadn’t stepped into a higher great realm, their strength greatly surpassed their past selves due to their unleashed potential in an incomplete world.

And they mastered some powerful Divine Arts in the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, practiced true Mystical Techniques, and their Cultivation grew vastly stronger. Each divine being was mightier than before.

Likewise, over these three years, the powerhouses from the Exotic Realm relentlessly opened several cross-border channels, desperate to descend upon the Tiandu Continent. Along with them came numerous Heavenly Divine Realm and Martial God Realm powerhouses.

The entire Tiandu Continent was stirred, engulfed in fear, but the Exotic Realm Divine Beings failed to achieve their goals every time, instead suffering heavy losses. In these three years, several divine beings of the Tiandu Continent had truly grown stronger, and they imparted the Scriptures and Divine Skills they had acquired from the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms to the members of the Heavenly Slaying Alliance, enhancing their power.

Unfortunately, it was exceedingly difficult to give birth to a new Divine Saint. Especially within the closed Tiandu Continent, where Heaven’s suppression was strong, and the land hardly allowed for the emergence of many.

People had a premonition that the Heaven Punishment Battle was drawing closer, so much so that even the once-per-decade Dragon Phoenix Alchemy Conference was halted. Everything was being prepped for the Heaven Punishment Battle.

Yang Wushuang, Long Guao, Yuan Jiu, and others had truly grown stronger, surpassing their former selves as they fully assimilated the enlightenment from their millennia of slumber.

But without advancing in realm, instead, following Ye Chen’s advice, they focused on consolidating and aimed for the Ultimate Ascension in all aspects.

For Ye Chen had told them, to become a young king like Donghua Haoyi, the realm was not crucial. The key was to fully tap the potential within each realm, to actively enhance themselves from all aspects, break through limits, and achieve Ultimate Ascension—that was the true strength of a king.

A high realm might only be strong temporarily, but the power of the Ultimate Realm—extracting all potential from each realm—when faced with others at the same realm level, would reveal the truly terrifying aspect.

A young king was forged this way.

From being a young king himself, Ye Chen understood this, giving direction to the Five Great Ancient Heroes. They were all dazzling, otherwise, they wouldn’t be regarded as beyond divine hope. They quickly grasped this concept and chose not to advance to a higher realm into the Divinity Transformation Realm. Instead, they focused on Ultimate Ascension in all aspects, breaking limits, aiming to become the reigning kings of their era.

Today, the world didn’t know just how strong the Five Great Ancient Heroes had become. All that was known was that now, even without employing the Heavenly God Dao Soldiers, they could retreat unscathed from a top battle in the Heavenly Divine Realm.

There were even rumors that they could defeat the powerful newcomers of the Heavenly Divine Realm, causing a worldwide sensation.

As for the Young Great Demon King, he hadn’t been seen truly taking action in these three years.
