"Although one did not need to participate in the ultimate Heavenly War between Supreme Heavenly Venerates and Great Venerables, the Heavenly War was not merely a battle between Supreme Heavenly Venerates and Great Venerables. The Eternal Heavenly Clans, along with the countless forces that followed them, also went to war. It was the most terrifying peak confrontation since time immemorial."
"It involved the entire Origin Land. No one could avoid it."
Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord's gaze held a trace of confusion and melancholy as he reminisced about the Multiverse Dusk of that era, recalling how intense and magnificent it had been.
Images flickered in his eyes, reflecting scenes from endless eons ago.
How prosperous and flourishing the Origin Land was in that era, unprecedented in its glory.
Thirty-three Supreme Heavenly Venerates, a hundred Great Venerables, stood together between heaven and earth.
Even the Primordial Realm, which had been stripped of ninety-nine percent of its great fortune, had only given birth to a single Supreme Heavenly Venerate like the Great God Pangu. It simply could not be compared to the Origin Land.
That was the absolute center.
Yet, it was precisely this supremely prosperous and flourishing Origin Land that was brought to the brink of destruction overnight.
The Great War of the Heavens, the Dusk of the Heavenly Venerates!
Countless supreme powerhouses were shattered to pieces.
Endless heavens and earth were torn asunder, infinite stars exploded.
There were Taishang overlords roaring in grief; mighty as these ancient overlords were, they too were annihilated, body and soul, in the brutal campaign.
There were Great Venerables howling, dominating past and present, capable of challenging Supreme Heavenly Venerates, seeking to tread the Eternal Domain and ascend to the Supreme Heavenly Throne. Yet they too stained the firmament crimson, dyed the earth red, and were cleaved asunder within the vast expanse between heaven and earth.
There were Supreme Heavenly Venerates, whose talent astonished past and present, who had forged Eternal Fruits, becoming deathless, immortal, and everlasting.
Yet they too fell, time and again triggering infinite anomalies across the Origin Land, causing the thirty-three heavenly suns hanging at the zenith of the firmament to dim, one round after another.
Endless darkness also gradually enveloped the Origin Land.
That battle, even separated by infinite years, remained etched in the bones and unforgettable for those who experienced it firsthand.
Because among them was Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord's father, the Ten Tribulations Heavenly Venerate.
The Supreme Heavenly Venerate who created the 'Ten Revolutions Heaven-Defying Transformation', adorned with tenfold tribulation light, reincarnated ten times, deathless and unperishing.
He too perished in that earth-shattering battle.
For the entire Ten Tribulations Celestial Clan, it was a devastating blow.
"The battle of the Multiverse Dusk was the most terrifying in all of history. Even the Origin Land was completely shattered. More than half of the Supreme Heavenly Venerates and Great Venerables fell."
"Several Eternal Heavenly Clans were also exterminated in the endless years that followed because of this."
"The Heavenly Father also fell in the battle of the Multiverse Dusk. Because before the Heavenly Father went to war, he left behind an Ancient Heavenly Venerate Weapon and left behind infinite means, our Ten Tribulations Celestial Clan, though suffering heavy casualties, fortunately survived and was not exterminated."
Regarding the fundamental cause of the Multiverse Dusk war, even Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord, a Heavenly Venerate's descendant, did not know. For it involved the secrets of the Supreme Heavenly Venerates; only beings at the Great Venerable level were qualified to know a thing or two.
Ye Chen looked deeply at Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord. He knew this was likely the Ten Tribulations Heavenly Venerate's way of protecting his descendant.
Because such secrets must involve matters of profound and far-reaching consequence. Otherwise, they would not have triggered the Multiverse Dusk, nor would they have caused more than half of the Supreme Heavenly Venerates and Great Venerables to fall in that battle.
Moreover, after the Multiverse Dusk war, there had also been an ultimate Heavenly War—the Heavenly War where nine Supreme Heavenly Venerates targeted the Great God Pangu.
If Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord knew the reason, he would likely bear the karma of the world.
Probably, the other surviving Supreme Heavenly Venerates would not allow Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord to live.
The Ten Tribulations Heavenly Venerate was also protecting this descendant of his, Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord.
At the invitation of the Heaven-Mending City Lord, Ye Chen temporarily took up residence within Heaven-Mending City, receiving the highest standard of reception.
Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord did not return immediately either, for this place was not far from the Eternal Heavenly Realm of the Ten Tribulations Celestial Clan. As a Supreme Realm Overlord, it wouldn't take him long to return.
Mainly, he still wished to forge a good relationship with this mysterious Great Venerable, Ye Chen, building upon their existing connection to establish better ties.
Naturally, the events of today, as the various powerhouses gradually departed, rapidly spread throughout the entire Origin Land.
Before long, the whole world knew!
The entire world was shaken!
The Eternal Heavenly Clans had gone to war!
It must be known that the Eternal Heavenly Clans were the most powerful forces in the Origin Land, bar none.
Because every Eternal Heavenly Clan was descended from an Eternal Heavenly Venerate, possessing unparalleled Heavenly Venerate bloodlines. They were innately powerful and possessed Heavenly Venerate legacies. In the vast, boundless world, who could contend with them?
Even though many Supreme Heavenly Venerates of the Eternal Heavenly Clans had fallen, they remained the most powerful forces of the present era, with unfathomableheritage / foundation. The mere existence of Supreme Realm Overlords placed them above the vast majority of forces.
Outside the Eternal Heavenly Clans, the number of Supreme Realm Overlords was extremely few, almost countable on one hand. In terms of total numbers, they could not compare to the total number of Supreme Realm Overlords within the Eternal Heavenly Clans.
Not to mentionthey also possessAncient Heavenly Venerate Weaponand otherheritage / foundation.
Therefore, once an Eternal Heavenly Clan went to war, it was absolutely a terrifying disaster, capable of destroying heaven and earth with a single move, affecting at least a domain as vast and endless as a Heavenly Domain.
Moreover, this time, the Wanxuan Heavenly Clan and the Heaven-Mending Clan went to war. Several Supreme Realm Overlords and other peak existences clashed, and there was even the shadow of an Ancient Heavenly Venerate Weapon. The impact was immense.
Everyone knew that even a simple collision in that battle caused the collapse of countless billions of miles around Heaven-Mending City, and innumerable living beings were slaughtered.
It also made people realize the great terror of the Wanxuan Heavenly Clan, which actually had four Supreme Realm Overlords appear together.
Was that theheritage / foundation of an Eternal Heavenly Clan?
It was indeed boundlessly terrifying.
However, the final outcome made everyone's eyes fall out.
Because not only was the Wanxuan Heavenly Clan's Heavenly Venerate Seed, Wan Tai Huangzun, taken away by the War God Emperor father and son from the Primordial Realm, but more importantly, when they descended upon Heaven-Mending City with overwhelming force to demand an explanation, they actually encountered a Great Venerable who suppressed all of history.
Great Venerables were not well understood by many.
Only after explanations from some ancient forces did people come to know that between Supreme Realm Overlords and Supreme Heavenly Venerates, there existed such peerless beings as Great Venerables.
Great Venerables, flawed Heavenly Venerates.
Terrifying beyond measure, directly sweeping away the Wanxuan Heavenly Clan's Wan Xing Taishang, even suppressing the Ancient Heavenly Venerate Weapon, displaying unparalleled peerless cultivation that shook the mortal world.
Only then did the world learn of the terror of a Great Venerable.
In the present era, with Supreme Heavenly Venerates not appearing, who could oppose a Great Venerable?
Even if a Supreme Realm Overlord personally wielded an Ancient Heavenly Venerate Weapon, they were no match for a Great Venerable.
This battle was a tremendous blow to the Wanxuan Heavenly Clan. They had almost sent out their peak lineup in full force. Four Supreme Realm Overlords represented the Wanxuan Heavenly Clan's strongestlineup / contingent aside from the Wanxuan Heavenly Venerate himself.
They had even brought an Ancient Heavenly Venerate Weapon, with the imposing momentum to slay the War God Emperor father and son from the Primordial Realm and exterminate the remaining members of the Heaven-Mending Clan.
Yet in the end, they found themselves facing a peerless Great Venerable of the era.
