Ye Tian stepped out of the wooden hut and immediately left, not lingering any longer. After all, this place didn’t hold the opportunity he sought. He was now almost certain that a Supreme Power had once been here, someone even stronger than the First Divine Lord and the First Demon Lord. Of course, this was merely his preliminary conjecture; the true secrets of this world might run even deeper than he imagined.

Ye Tian continued to fly swiftly, but he hadn’t gone far before he noticed signs of battle on the ground and discovered a corpse. It was the body of a Galaxy-level powerhouse from the Angel Race. Judging by the condition of the corpse, it had been killed by a single spear thrust from the front.

Seeing the corpse elicited no reaction from Ye Tian. Clearly, this angel had been killed by a strong warrior from another race. Given the generally strained relationship between humans and angels, the death of this Angel Race powerhouse didn’t stir any emotions in Ye Tian.

He pressed on, searching for unknown opportunities. A thunderous roar indicated fighting ahead, and sensing this, Ye Tian instantly teleported over. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the battlefield, witnessing a chaotic clash among multiple races: Immortals, Demons, Angels, Elves, Yashas, and others, all fiercely fighting.

It was obvious to Ye Tian what they were fighting over. Not far away stood an estate, the very object of their fierce contest.

This piqued Ye Tian’s interest. The previous wooden hut had been mysterious, and though it lacked what he wanted, it was clearly extraordinary. Now, this estate, sprawling and shielded by a faint power, remained unaffected by the battle. No matter how these Galaxy-level powerhouses fought, they couldn’t disturb the estate.

What if the estate held valuable treasures? That would be a significant gain. Until he understood the secrets of this world, Ye Tian deemed this estate a crucial opportunity.

He teleported directly in front of the combatants, announcing in a domineering tone, “This estate is mine!”

The others noticed Ye Tian’s presence and sneered. A peak Galaxy-level powerhouse from the Immortal Race recognized him and said, “I thought it was someone important, but it’s just the True Monarch of Ten Thousand Laws from the Human Race. True Monarch of Ten Thousand Laws, I admit I’m no match for you at the same level, but you are merely at the peak of the Planetary System level. We are peak Galaxy-level. Even if our cultivation is heavily suppressed here, defeating you won’t be difficult.”

“If you were at the peak of the Galaxy level, we would retreat immediately. But at your current level, you don’t have the right.”

“Hahaha, it’s rare for the Human Race to produce a Supreme-level Prince. Who knew they’d let you come here? Today, we’ll make the Human Race’s Supreme-level Prince fall here.”

The peak Galaxy-level powerhouse from the Demon Race attacked without hesitation, aiming to kill Ye Tian instantly. However, just before the attack landed, Ye Tian drew his saber.

“Heavenly Moon Saber! Slash!”

With a strike infused with the power of the Chaos Dao, this ultimate technique was too fast, fierce, and precise. The Demon Race powerhouse had no time to react, being split in two and falling instantly.

“What!”

The other strong warriors from various clans were stunned at the sight of the Demon Race’s peak Galaxy-level powerhouse being killed.

“Too weak!” Ye Tian murmured. His disdainful gaze and invincible aura instantly intimidated everyone present. At that moment, no one dared to underestimate him anymore.

“Impossible!” Another peak Galaxy-level powerhouse from the Demon Race roared, “Kai Mo was one of our peak Galaxy-level powerhouses. He used to be an Eternal-level Prince with unparalleled combat strength. Even if you are a Supreme-level Prince, how could you, merely at the peak of the Planetary System level, kill him with one strike?”

The others also found it hard to believe, but the evidence was right before their eyes.

“You can’t fathom my strength because you are too weak,” Ye Tian said. “I gave you a chance to leave, but since you didn’t take it, you’ll stay here forever.”

“True Chaos Technique, Black Lotus Realm!”

One after another, black lotus realms flew out, enveloping the various powerhouses. They tried to escape, but the black lotus realms were too fast, trapping each of them. Then, the black lotus realms obliterated everything within them. Not even a scream was heard; many strong warriors were annihilated, and any who managed to escape were swiftly killed by Ye Tian’s saber. In an instant, all the Galaxy-level powerhouses had fallen.

After confirming there were no survivors, Ye Tian walked toward the estate. As he entered, he felt an aura of simplicity. For the first time in this world, Ye Tian sensed the presence of energy. The energy in this estate was extremely gentle, capable of nourishing both the body and soul—a very rare kind of energy.

Ye Tian searched the estate and found several areas covered by a special force that he couldn’t penetrate. However, the rest of the estate was open to him. Eventually, Ye Tian discovered a study that piqued his interest. Inside, he found some books made from special paper imbued with eternal power. Most of the books contained mundane records, poems, and stories, but one book held information that greatly intrigued Ye Tian.

Transcendence! Indeed, it detailed the concept of transcendence. It stated that beyond Supreme Powerhouses, there were Trascendents. In a single universe, only a few individuals could transcend. There were two methods to achieve this.

The first method was to take the path against the heavens, breaking through the five limitations of the universe at the Emperor level to become a defier of the heavens. The second method was to follow the normal path of cultivation, becoming a Supreme Powerhouse, and then contending against the universe’s origin. By forcibly breaking the suppression of the universe’s origin, one could then transcend.

Ye Tian was astonished to learn there were two methods. The book noted that the second method was exceedingly difficult, more so than the first, and wasn’t a correct approach. Relying solely on one’s own power was impossible because all life forms were born within the universe and couldn’t possess strength surpassing the universe. To transcend using the second method, one had to rely on external forces, specifically the power from the chaos beyond the universe. This required a special technique.

Ye Tian didn’t know how to achieve the second method and wasn’t particularly concerned. After all, he was already walking the path of a defier of the heavens. As long as he didn’t fall, he would be able to transcend.

The book contained another piece of information that surprised Ye Tian. It stated that once one transcended, they could remain in the universe for a short period. During this time, the transcender could shield themselves from the universe’s detection, but they couldn’t stay too long. If they did, the universe’s origin would eventually detect them. At that point, unless they could directly contend with the universe’s origin, they would have to leave.

Reading this, Ye Tian wondered how the author of the book knew such details unless… the author was a transcender!
