The three Quasi-Monarchs also revealed looks of excitement. Once they assisted the Offspring of Supremes in seizing the 'Supreme One' Immortal Fate, they too would ascend to greatness, with even their followers rising along with them!
One Quasi-Monarch said, "However, since the Ultimate Ancient Domain has sent its strongest Heaven's Pride, our Supreme Ancient Domain should also have its strongest Heaven's Pride appear. Why haven't they arrived yet?"
The third Quasi-Monarch also awakened, saying, "The Endless Star Sea blocks their arrival; I'm afraid they still need some time. For now, we can only regretfully watch as the Ultimate Ancient Domain occupies a Supreme Secret Realm. After all, that is also an Immortal Fate, just one that has no connection to our Supreme Ancient Domain."
The many powerful figures within the divine hall could only sigh helplessly, feeling somewhat regretful.
However, they all knew that this day was not far off!
"It's fine. Let them occupy the third Supreme Secret Realm. There will be a fourth, and even a fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and many more Supreme Secret Realms," the Quasi-Monarch with layers of divine light rings behind his head spoke. "It is said that there are a total of ten Supreme Secret Realms on the Two Realms Battlefield. The one before us is merely the third. There is enough time for the universe's strongest Heaven's Pride of our Supreme Ancient Domain to descend. When the time comes, they can also contend with the strongest Heaven's Pride of the Ultimate Ancient Domain and vie for the other Supreme Secret Realms."
"Right now, the Supreme Secret Realm of our Supreme Ancient Domain has long been open, possessing three thousand six hundred Dao Stars, allowing the powerful of our Supreme Ancient Domain to rapidly improve. It's just a pity we haven't found the true Emperor Star yet. Otherwise, obtaining the Emperor's Secret Treasury would be enough to greatly enhance the strength of our Supreme Ancient Domain."
...
At the same time, Ye Chen and the others rented a palace in a medium-sized ancient city named Ming City, located beneath the Immortal Heavenly Pass. The four Divine Kings went out to gather information.
Having just arrived in the Supreme Ancient Domain, even though everyone possessed absolutely supreme cultivation, a strong dragon could not suppress a local snake. Moreover, this was the strongest heavenly ancient domain where the many heavens' Supremes had left their Dao imprints. No one knew if the Supreme Ancient Domain still harbored astonishing existences lying dormant.
The best course of action now was to thoroughly understand the various aspects of the Supreme Ancient Domain before making other plans.
That night, the four Divine Kings returned. True to their status as the founding ancestors of four divine dynasties, they had gathered a great deal of information in a short time.
Soon, Ye Chen and the others learned that this Immortal Heavenly Pass could be opened.
Beyond the Immortal Heavenly Pass lay a vast battlefield, which the people of the Supreme Ancient Domain called the Two Realms Battlefield.
On the other side of the battlefield was the hostile world of the Supreme Ancient Domain—the Ultimate Ancient Domain!
Throughout history, the Supreme Ancient Domain and the Ultimate Ancient Domain had been hostile, engaging in countless wars that were basically evenly matched. Both sides had victories and defeats, with an incalculable number of casualties.
In the end, due to a peak-level duel between Ancient Monarchs that resulted in mutual severe injury and the fall of both, the two great ancient domain worlds suffered heavy losses. Knowing the fighting should end, they tacitly agreed to a ceasefire.
This period of peace lasted for three hundred thousand years. Just as everyone on both sides thought it would continue, Supreme Secret Realms suddenly began appearing on the Two Realms Battlefield.
These Supreme Secret Realms were left behind by ancient Supremes, containing priceless Supreme Secret Treasuries of boundless value.
Without a doubt, the appearance of the Supreme Secret Realms also drew the attention of both the Supreme Ancient Domain and the Ultimate Ancient Domain. They were willing to break the peace of hundreds of thousands of years, with countless powerful figures from both sides launching a frenzied struggle, leading to the outbreak of terrifying battles time and again, causing continuous casualties.
However, the two sides were evenly matched, each finding it difficult to gain much advantage. To this day, each occupied one Supreme Secret Realm.
But when the third Supreme Secret Realm appeared, the two great ancient domain worlds failed to maintain balance.
Even though the Supreme Ancient Domain side dispatched a terrifying lineup including one Quasi-Monarch, twelve Divine Kings, and a hundred Great Powers, the final result was a complete rout. Even the Divine Kings and Great Powers suffered over half their number fallen, and the strongest among them, Quasi-Monarch Xu Tianjun, was severely wounded, left with half a life. Only by using a secret technique did he manage to bring the other Supreme Ancient Domain powerhouses back, escaping by luck.
Xu Tianjun is still in seclusion recovering from his injuries to this day.
Because the Ultimate Ancient Domain suddenly surged forth with a group of fearsome super-powerful figures, all of them terrifying Heaven's Pride, even including a Quasi-Monarch. They turned the tide, drove away the powerhouses of the Supreme Ancient Domain side, and completely occupied the third Supreme Secret Realm.
"Suddenly appearing super-powerful figures, even a Quasi-Monarch, all supreme Heaven's Pride?" Hearing this, Ye Chen and the others frowned. They were no ordinary individuals; their thinking was powerful. From much of the information, they understood that the Ultimate Ancient Domain was actually not much different from the Supreme Ancient Domain; over the years, they had been evenly matched.
Even in the early struggle for the Supreme Secret Realms, each had managed to seize one. This showed that even if there was a gap between them, it was absolutely not large.
One could say that if these super Heaven's Pride truly belonged to the Ultimate Ancient Domain, they would not have allowed the Supreme Ancient Domain to obtain one of the Supreme Secret Realms. After all, the Supreme Secret Realms contained Supreme Secret Treasuries; why would the Ultimate Ancient Domain be willing to yield it?
Moreover, from what they heard, these super Heaven's Pride seemed to have appeared suddenly.
Another point worth mentioning was that the opposing world and heaven of the Supreme Ancient Domain was called the Ultimate Ancient Domain.
Soon, the human Heaven's Pride all had a sudden realization, each revealing looks of shock.
They were no ordinary individuals, so they naturally thought of many things at once.
Ultimate Ancient Domain?
The Tenth Heaven Ancient Domain was contending for the 'Supreme One' Immortal Fate, so this ancient domain world was also called the Supreme Ancient Domain.
The opposing side was the Ultimate Ancient Domain.
From this, they deduced that the Ultimate Ancient Domain was most likely the very end of the Ultimate Ancient Path, the final trial ground of the Eight Desolates Ancient Domain.
And those super Heaven's Pride of the younger generation who had appeared out of nowhere were probably the group of super Heaven's Pride from the Ultimate Ancient Path.
After deducing the result, Ye Chen, A Beinu, and Yu Qing, the husband and wife trio, revealed looks of pleasant surprise. If this were true, wouldn't it mean they could see Yi Wu, the Goddess, Chen Xi, and the others?
"I never thought that without needing to leave the Tenth Heaven Ancient Domain, right at the very end of the Supreme Ancient Domain, we could see Jing Ruo, Yi Wu, and the others. Truly, when one path is blocked, another opens," Ye Chen's inner joy was undeniable. He wished he could immediately head to the Two Realms Battlefield to see his wives and daughters.
Hundreds of years of separation—how could the longing in his heart fade? On the contrary, like aging wine, it grew richer with the passage of time.
However, Di Wuming stopped the husband and wife trio, smiling faintly, "Ye Chen, I know you all very much want to see them, but there's no need to rush. Moreover, right now the Supreme Ancient Domain and the Ultimate Ancient Domain are on opposing sides. If you rashly go over, not only will it be difficult to see your wives, but you might easily come under attack. Even the Supreme Ancient Domain side might stand against you. Don't forget, the two great ancient domain worlds are not simple; perhaps they also have Ancient Monarchs. And for the sake of contending for the 'Supreme One' Immortal Fate, you must exercise some patience."
Ye Chen regained some clarity, feeling these words were very reasonable. This matter needed careful consideration, and there was no need to rush for the moment.
