Nature and Cosmological Position
- Heaven is an ancient, boundless world containing countless universes and tens of millions of races; even Immortal Kings cannot cross it in a lifetime, and Dao Ancestors cannot fully explore it. 796
- It is the heart of the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, where the Sacrificial Sea’s strongest civilizations and cultivators converge. 686 707
- Its central Dao Land contains numerous Immortal Kings and Imperial Dao experts. Jiang Yun avoids approaching it after sensing its defenders, including two crippled Emperors. 686
- Heaven has produced multiple Immortal Emperors, including the Pollen Emperor, and approximately eighty to one hundred Dao Ancestors over several Sacrificial Eras. 887
- The Reincarnation Road does not dare cross Heaven’s central region, whose security and vigilance make it difficult for dark forces to infiltrate. 686 707
Geography and Conditions
Prosperous Interior
Heaven’s interior is marked by vast sacred mountains, rich spiritual energy, grand sects, immortal beasts, and dense concentrations of powerful cultivators. Its prosperity reflects the accumulated foundations of an entire Sacrificial Era. 686
Ruined Borderlands
Its borders contrast sharply with the interior: broken monuments, chaotic laws, death qi, strange matter, and remnants of destroyed evolutionary civilizations cover the region near the Reincarnation Road. 686
Heaven Great World
Following the previous Grand Sacrifice, the Ancestral Land surrounds Heaven Great World with gray-black weird mist and a formation modeled on the Ancestral Sacrificial Altar. The arrangement restrains Heaven’s ultimate potential while allowing its population and cultivation world to flourish as future sacrifices. 887
- The Heavenly Heart Mark was seized by weird beings, obstructing the path to immortality for Heaven’s cultivators. 887
- Desolate Emperor later destroys the formation around Heaven Great World with a Sacrificial Dao-level strike without harming its inhabitants. 895
History
Heaven was a principal force against the Ancestral Land during the previous Grand Sacrifice. Its resistance made it one of the Ancestral Land’s most feared opponents, leading to extensive containment measures in the following era. 887
During the conflict Above Heaven, much of Heaven’s strength follows the Heavenly Court into battle, leaving fewer defenders behind to preserve its outward prosperity. 686 Desolate Emperor fights three Immortal Emperors while pursuing the wider war against the Weird Clan. 681
To prepare for the final war, Heaven sends Grand Dao Dao Ancestors to cultivate in Above Heaven despite the danger. The decision is kept secret because Heaven’s leaders believe stronger cultivators are necessary before Desolate Emperor’s future campaign against the Plateau Ancestral Land. 787
