Heavenly Realm

Biodata

Nature and Laws

The Heavenly Realm is the domain of the Celestial Gods, distinct from both the World of Gods and the Abyss. Its gods jointly reinforce the special operating laws of the World of Gods, restricting even gods from acting there freely. 33

• Divine Light is a god's primary means of protecting a nation in the World of Gods.
  • It prevents other gods from descending into the illuminated territory at will. 176
  • It can also prevent a visiting god from returning to the Heavenly Realm from within that territory. 176
  • A god stranded outside its own Divine Light must reach its own nation or find another god willing to permit its return; prolonged maintenance of a descent is costly and can become fatal. 176
• Heavenly Realm power is fundamentally opposed to Abyssal power, making direct interaction between the two difficult. 345
• A Celestial God can fall and become a Demon God, but a Demon God from the Abyss cannot become a Celestial God. 506
• Ordinary people generally cannot survive in the Heavenly Realm unless they reside inside a god's Divine Kingdom or exist as soul bodies. 247

Divine Hierarchy

Key Locations

Central Divine Realm and Central Divine City

• All newly ascended gods enter through a unified location in the Central Divine Realm. 335
• The Central Divine City is the Heavenly Realm's largest Divine City and serves as its central divine region. 337 382
• It is inhabited by New Gods, unassigned Angels, and Holy Spirits whose former gods have fallen. 337
• It is a favored location for challenges to become a Lord of Authority, as a defeated challenger can retreat into the city and a successful ascension receives greater blessings there. 382

Holy Hall

• The Holy Hall stands at the highest point of the Heavenly Realm and can only be reached through a permitted space gate in the Central Divine City. 422 423
• Its core area contains a vast white-jade plaza, floating buildings made from extremely high-grade materials, and a large Angel presence. 423
• It is the Holy Lord's power center; ordinary beings cannot enter it. 423

Divine Kingdoms

Divine Kingdoms are personal realms established by gods within the Heavenly Realm.

• Their size, defenses, and concealment depend on the materials used to construct them. 345
• Newly ascended gods often begin with small, simple spherical Divine Kingdoms with limited defenses. 348
• Su Mo's Divine Kingdom, built above the Third Moon, exceeded 200 kilometers in diameter and was constructed with the aid of the Seven Moon Goddesses and their Angels. 349 351
• Divine Kingdoms can contain seas, land, plants, floating islands, palaces, and Angel or Holy Spirit populations. 351

Guixu Star

• Guixu Star travels outside the Heavenly Realm on a hidden and unstable trajectory. 392
• Its location is difficult to find without Space Law, and it is particularly dangerous when near the Abyss. 392
• Returning Guixu Star to the Heavenly Realm stabilized the realm's space. 416
• Su Mo later established his Invincible Domain on Guixu Star. 422

Inhabitants and Institutions

Angels and Holy Spirits

• Angels and Holy Spirits are the Heavenly Realm's most common non-god inhabitants, especially in Divine Cities. 337
• Unassigned Angels and Holy Spirits often belong to gods who have fallen and have no one to revive or command them. 337
• Holy Spirits are soul bodies. To descend into the World of Gods, they require vessels, which limits their usable strength and damages the vessels. 358
• Angels are more practical for descent and warfare because they possess physical bodies. 358
• An Angel can be created or resurrected through the Angel Reincarnation Pool, though resurrection requires an Angel Heart and large quantities of Divine Stones. 357
• The Holy Lord's Angel Reincarnation Pool allows gods to create Angels from the souls of their most devout believers. 358

Faith and Divine Power

• Divine Power is central to divine strength and can be exchanged for services, treasures, or protection. 358
• Gods use faith from their realms to condense strength. 486
• A single drop of Sovereign-grade Divine Power may equal the total Divine Power of an entire Lord of Authority. 486
• Divine Kingdom celebrations are customary when a new god establishes a foothold in the Heavenly Realm. 352

Defenses

• The Heavenly Realm's border is guarded by interconnected fortresses. 520
• When their barriers activate together, they form a sky curtain that blocks Abyssal demons and Demon Gods from infiltrating. 520
• Each fortress is generally commanded by a Lord of Authority and garrisoned by Celestial Gods during wartime. 520
• The defenses can withstand repeated attacks, but massed Demon God assaults can eventually destabilize and breach them. 520
