"The Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace!?"
Just hearing the name, Ye Chen knew it must be related to Emperors, perhaps even to the Emperors who opened up the Ten Heavens Ancient Domain.
"That's right, precisely the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace!"
When mentioning the name of the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace, Patriarch Xia Sang and several tribal Elders couldn't help but reveal sincere reverence and fervor on their faces, as if the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace was a supreme deity requiring the worship of all.
"The Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace, though not one of the One Hundred and Eight Ancient God Clans and not dominating the world, is a majestic divine hall left behind by the gods who created heaven and earth, transcending everything above all!"
The Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace was a truly supreme force that stood above everything, even overshadowing the One Hundred and Eight Ancient God Clans. It was the most transcendent ancient force in the entire Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain.
Legend had it that the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace was a transcendent force left behind by the gods who created heaven and earth in ancient times. It never interfered in worldly affairs, remaining aloof and detached from the mortal realm.
Yet, no force in the world dared to ignore the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace. Even the Nine Clans and Eighteen Kingdoms, which once dominated the Ten Heavens Ancient Domain for countless years, were said to harbor a sense of wariness towards this Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace.
Even the other external Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans among the current One Hundred and Eight Ancient God Clans held a wary heart towards this mysterious and transcendent Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace.
Even knowing that the final 'Supreme' Immortal Fate was within the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace, they maintained a kind of silence. From this, one could imagine just how wary they were of this Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace.
Ye Chen understood. Since this Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace was left behind by the Emperors and preserved the final 'Supreme' Immortal Fate, it naturally also had the Emperors' contingency plans.
Even if it were an Emperor Clan or an Immortal Clan, they likely couldn't seize this 'Supreme' Immortal Fate from the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace. Without power transcending these Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans, how could the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace have preserved the 'Supreme' Immortal Fate until today throughout the countless years of rule by the Nine Clans and Eighteen Kingdoms?
Existence itself was reason!
Hearing that the 'Supreme' Immortal Fate was stored within this transcendent Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace, Ye Chen was somewhat surprised, but it was also within expectations. After all, it was a force jointly left by the gods, naturally qualified to preserve this 'Supreme' Immortal Fate.
But why did all the myriad races now know that the 'Supreme' Immortal Fate was stored in the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace? Otherwise, the Emperor Clans, Immortal Clans, and Royal Clans that entered from the outside world earlier wouldn't have been searching everywhere for its whereabouts.
However, Ye Chen quickly understood.
Because of the appearance of the extraterritorial Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans, because of the descent of the extraterritorial Emperor Sons and Imperial Maidens, the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace—which had always been transcendent above the world and never interfered in worldly affairs—suddenly announced a crucial piece of news to the entire Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain:
The true 'Supreme' Immortal Fate was not in other regions of the Ten Heavens Realm, but within the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace, stored in the Emperors' Supreme Heavenly Palace.
The Immortal Fate left by the Emperors did not belong to the mediocre. To obtain this legendary 'Supreme' Immortal Fate, one must prove their absolute strength, an absolute strength that transcended everything.
Only the strongest among the younger generation would have the qualification to obtain it.
In the near future, the Supreme Heavenly Palace within the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace would open. At that time, the strongest of the younger generation could go to the Supreme Heavenly Palace to obtain this final 'Supreme' Immortal Fate.
As for when exactly this 'near future' was, the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace did not give a definite time. It might be decades later, centuries later, or even millennia later.
After all, for these Emperor Sons and Imperial Maidens, who had long achieved the Great Power realm and would inevitably advance into the Monarch domain in the future, their lifespans were immensely long. A mere few hundred or thousand years meant nothing to them.
The Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace gave them ample time to grow, to become strong, to contest for this 'Supreme' Immortal Fate at their peak state.
More importantly, this 'Supreme' Immortal Fate left by the Emperors was not only for Emperor Sons, Imperial Maidens, or Immortal descendants to obtain. It was open to anyone of the younger generation.
Whoever became the ultimate strongest of the younger generation, the number one, would be the recipient of the 'Supreme' Immortal Fate.
Undoubtedly, once this news was announced, it immediately stirred up an unprecedented storm across the Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain, attracting countless covetous gazes from the myriad races of all heavens.
Although the vast majority didn't know exactly what the 'Supreme' Immortal Fate represented, knowing it was an Immortal Fate left by the gods who opened the Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain in ancient times allowed them to understand much.
In the eyes of the myriad races, each god was supreme, transcending everything. Being able to open up such a vast and boundless Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain was enough proof of their majestic and ultimate power.
Such existences, compared even to the various clans' ultimate powerhouses who built the Ancestral God Pass in ancient times, might be far inferior, separated by a world of difference.
The Immortal Fate they jointly left behind was naturally extraordinary.
Perhaps it was a key to the path of becoming a god.
Gods, for these native inhabitants of the Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain, were equivalent to Emperors, Sovereigns, Immortals!
For a time, the announcement from the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace also caused the entire Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain to erupt into a vast situation of younger generation supremacy contention.
Among the myriad races, countless Heaven's Prides emerged, wanting to contend for that final 'Supreme' Immortal Fate.
That scene could be called the greatest throughout the ages, with Heaven's Prides contending for glory, stars shining brightly, unprecedented.
On this path of contending for the 'Supreme' Immortal Fate, it was like a hundred boats racing upstream, sailing against the current—if you don't advance, you fall back.
Ye Chen and the others could already imagine what kind of stormy chaos the entire Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain would fall into under the announcement from the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace.
Even the strongest immortal ancient clans like Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans would find it hard to suppress, let alone other racial forces. It would inevitably be explosive.
Especially since it could further ignite the boiling hot blood within those young Heaven's Prides of the current younger generation. They were all at the most passionate and vigorous age of their lives. Even though many achieved success early in youth, becoming rulers of a kingdom, sect, or clan, attaining achievements countless people could hardly obtain in a lifetime, requiring the admiration of unknown numbers in the mortal world.
Yet even so, looking at this great era that gathered the most ultimate young Heaven's Prides of the younger generation throughout the ages, even from the Chaos Sea, no one was willing to stop here, satisfied with these meager achievements before them.
All hoped to erupt with their own brilliant light in this glorious great age of shining stars, illuminating all heavens, proving their own glorious peak.
And such brilliant light could mostly leave their names in history, remembered for generations, for eternity.
Such glory was far from comparable to mere kingdom rulers, sect masters, or clan patriarchs.
Moreover, that final 'Supreme' Immortal Fate was the key to the path of godhood. Once one became a god, proved the Dao and became an Emperor, they could obtain infinite lifespan, completely becoming the master of this Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain, the number one throughout the ages.
They could even leave the Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain, go to the original lands of those extraterritorial Emperor Clans, Immortal Clans, Royal Clans, to explore, to understand more of the great mysteries between heaven and earth.
Undoubtedly, this was also an immensely tempting lure for the Heaven's Prides of the myriad domains of the Ten Heavens Realm Ancient Domain.
Behind him, the three Supreme Heaven's Prides—A Beinu, Mo Haishen, and Luo Guyun—were moved. Their eyes all emitted blazing light, clearly also burning with fervor for this contention of the myriad races' Heaven's Prides.
They were all of the younger generation. Who was willing to be weaker than others? All hoped they could climb to the peak of the Great Dao.
"Another younger generation contention?" Ye Chen somewhat helplessly rubbed his forehead. Throughout his past life and present life, all the way here, he had been contending with Heaven's Prides from various places, fighting until now, nearly at the super Great Power realm of the seventh heaven, and was the strongest young Supreme One. Yet he still couldn't escape it.
But he also understood that this younger generation contention was different from before. It was the most intense one throughout the ages, where all the strongest of the younger generation from the entire Chaos Sea emerged together, including Emperor Sons and Imperial Maidens with Emperor and Sovereign bloodline power and Immortal descendants, nearly all appearing. It could be called the most intense great age.
No one dared claim they had absolute strength to overpower others and become the final victor.
Because it was too difficult, even harder than becoming the number one of the younger generation in a single Chaos Ancient Universe.
Because they would be facing the strongest Emperor Sons, Imperial Maidens, and Immortal descendants from all the ancient universes. Even if an Emperor, Sovereign, or supreme Immortal reincarnated back to their youth, they wouldn't be confident.
And this time, if one defeated everyone, became number one, contended for and obtained this final 'Supreme' Immortal Fate, there might also be hope to transcend that 'Eternity' belonging to mythical legends.
And this was also Ye Chen's goal.
Transcend everything, achieve Eternity!
Ye Chen sighed lightly. On this path of Eternity, ahead lay endless dangers and obstacles, making him feel immense pressure.
But soon, his gaze became firm again. Even if countless obstacles lay ahead, he would still push through everything, seize the final victory, even transcend Eternity, change that blood-stained future.
Among them, A Beinu suddenly furrowed her delicate brows and said, "Senior, since whoever becomes the ultimate strongest among the younger generation can obtain that 'Supreme' Immortal Fate, wouldn't the older generation from the One Hundred and Eight Ancient God Clans and the Three Thousand Royal Clans take action, directly eliminating some of the more outstanding Supreme Heaven's Prides to clear obstacles for their own descendants?"
Elder Xia Hao chuckled: "Regarding this question, you few young friends need not worry. Because the One Hundred and Eight Ancient God Clans had long taken precautions. Under the auspices of the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace, the myriad races of all heavens formed a covenant—the Myriad Races Covenant. Regarding the contention of Heaven's Prides among the younger generation, the older generation cannot easily take action. The myriad races supervise each other. Once violated, the one who took action would be directly erased, and that clan's young Heaven's Prides would lose their qualification for contention. Even if they ultimately obtained the title of number one, they could not obtain the 'Supreme' Immortal Fate."
Undoubtedly, such a Myriad Races Covenant largely guaranteed the safety of each clan's Heaven's Prides.
Of course, this only meant they couldn't easily take action, not that they couldn't take action at all. Rules always had loopholes, and this point was worth guarding against.
