World Classification
| World Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Myriad Heavens | The largest world tier, powered by spiritual energy and containing more than a thousand continents in the later era. Many Lesser Thousand Worlds regard ascension here as their ultimate goal. 768 795 992 |
| Middle Thousand Worlds | Rare, unstable patchwork worlds formed when several Lesser Thousand Worlds collide and merge. They are larger than a Lesser Thousand World but smaller and more resource-poor than the Myriad Heavens. 768 |
| Lesser Thousand Worlds | Lower worlds connected to the Myriad Heavens. Their cultivators may ascend, while their local systems and resources are generally weaker. 768 793 |
Cultivation System
The Myriad Heavens uses spiritual energy and recognizes eleven major cultivation stages. Each realm is normally divided into Early, Middle, and Late stages, with Great Perfection sometimes recognized as an additional threshold. 768 816

Realm Characteristics
- The Myriad Heavens' space is exceptionally stable; ordinary Spatial Power is generally unavailable until the Supreme Realm. 872 1118
- Earth Supremes can rule continents, while Heavenly Sovereigns can suppress entire regions. 1131
- A normal Earth Supreme-to-@@REF_ENTITY_1135359@@ breakthrough produces a phenomenon spanning at least ten million kilometers. 1117
- Dominators merge with the World Will, oversee a Lesser Thousand World, and possess lifespans tied to that of the Myriad Heavens. 1139
Geography and Scale
- The Myriad Heavens contains more than a thousand continents, including the Ten Great Supercontinents. Sky Luo Continent is one such supercontinent. 992
- In the ancient-era timeline, it contained more than 11,300 continents; this number changes as continents are destroyed or Lesser Thousand Worlds ascend into it. 1206
- A single supercontinent can equal eight or nine ordinary Lesser Thousand Worlds in area. 1206
- Even an Earth Supreme may lack the leisure to measure the world's full extent; no complete map of the Myriad Heavens exists. 852
- Below the Supreme Realm, crossing a supercontinent by speed alone is effectively impossible within a lifetime. Spatial Spaceships, teleportation talismans, and teleportation arrays are essential forms of transportation. 992
World Will and Fundamental Laws
The World Will of the Myriad Heavens is the world's governing consciousness, distinct from the physical world itself.
- It can reveal paths beyond the Saint Grade Heavenly Sovereign level through the Sky Ranking List, exerting absolute pressure even on Saint Grade Heavenly Sovereigns. 880
- Native cultivators who conquer other worlds expand the World Will's control over those territories; it then incorporates the conquered planes into the Myriad Heavens' sphere. 1253
- The World Will may grant or withhold access to the Power of Destiny, as this amounts to sharing its authority. 1164
- The relationships among the Three Thousand Great Daos are fixed. Altering fundamental attribute relationships would destabilize the Myriad Heavens on a catastrophic scale. 868
- Lesser Thousand Worlds may be drawn into the Myriad Heavens through their Plane Embryos, provided a suitable cultivator establishes the necessary connection. 1254
The Other Half
The Myriad Heavens is described as incomplete: it represents the yang side of a larger whole, while an opposing yin side of roughly equal size is occupied by the Extraterrestrial Evil God Race. 795
- The Extraterrestrial Evil God Race is treated as an invading, homeless people rejected by the Myriad Heavens and burdened by its curse. 872
- The two sides have a history of devastating war, including the Ancient Great Battle that killed numerous Heavenly Sovereigns. 1111 1300
- In the altered history, Lu Yuan's intervention leads to a negotiated peace between the Myriad Heavens and the Holy Clan rather than their mutual destruction. 1289
- Red Dust Threads periodically cleanse Demonic Qi along the border, allowing Holy Clan goods to enter the Myriad Heavens without contamination. 1305
Society and Powers
- The Myriad Heavens is home to quadrillions upon quadrillions of living beings and countless races. 1051 1171
- Strength is the primary basis of status, security, and political influence. 1039 1051
- Major human power structures include:
- Spirit Array Masters are a native professional path of the Myriad Heavens. Their arrays can mobilize Heaven and Earth Power, making them priority targets in combat. 1007 1236
- Array disks are widespread enough to be compared with pills on the Dou Qi Continent. 1242
History
Ancient Era
The Ancient Nine Emperors dominated much of the Myriad Heavens. Six of the Ten Great Supercontinents were ruled by individual Emperors, whose territories and resources far surpassed those of ordinary Heavenly Sovereigns. 1122
The Ancient Great Battle against the Extraterrestrial Evil God Race devastated both sides. Large numbers of Heavenly Sovereigns died, powerful inheritances were lost or fragmented, and the Myriad Heavens' long-term development slowed considerably. 1111 1131 1300
Post-War Stagnation
For several hundred thousand years after the Ancient Great Battle, Heavenly Sovereigns emerged only rarely. The world remained stable but failed to achieve a true revival until ancient ruins began appearing in large numbers. 1300
Altered History
Lu Yuan's time-travel intervention changes the expected fate of the Myriad Heavens and the Extraterrestrial Evil God Race. Rather than following the original history of mutual annihilation, both sides ultimately reach a peace that preserves populations and prevents the corruption of hundreds of continents. 1257 1289
Relationships
- Lesser Thousand Worlds — Lower worlds connected to the Myriad Heavens; ascension into the Myriad Heavens is a central goal for many of their cultivators. 768 795
- World Will of the Myriad Heavens — Its governing consciousness, responsible for territorial integration, Destiny-related authority, and the path available to Dominators. 880 1164 1253
- Extraterrestrial Evil God Race / Holy Clan — Occupies the opposing half of the world; formerly an enemy force, later reconciled through an altered historical outcome. 795 872 1289
- Ancient Nine Emperors — Ancient Saint Grade Heavenly Sovereign powerhouses whose territories once encompassed much of the Myriad Heavens. 1122 1209
- Lu Yuan — A time-traveling cultivator whose interventions reshape the Myriad Heavens' history, war, and relationship with the Holy Clan. 1200 1257 1289
