Chapter 2017: Battlefield of the Supreme Heavens

Countless billions of mighty entities surged forward. Even the most insignificant among them were Primal Gods, their collective strike resembling a devastating flood born from the merging of a thousand rivers of power.

Chu Yuan watched the scene with a detached air; he favored the atmosphere of the battlefield, being an Emperor who had risen through the fires of endless slaughter.

Upon reaching the Heavenly Battlefield, Chu Yuan refrained from imposing his will over the heavens to prevent triggering any unnecessary complications.

These complications specifically referred to Thunder and Martial; if a will as vast as the heavens themselves were to manifest, they would certainly not remain passive.

With his current level of power, as long as he did not deliberately radiate it, he remained undetectable to all.

The fires of conflict were being lit in every direction.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The thunderous rhythm of war drums shook the air!

“A conflict of a grander scale!”

Chu Yuan paid little heed to the skirmishes on the minor battlefields. His vision pierced through time and space, perceiving the momentum of a world-shattering collision capable of obliterating the will of even those in the imperial realms.

In an instant, with the world split like a massive canyon, vast legions from both factions launched a charge led by imperial figures.

Epic confrontations unfolded.

Every detail was vividly reflected in Chu Yuan’s pupils.

This represented the true core strength of both armies, each side advancing with multiple Eternal Emperors in their ranks.

The warriors of the Thunder Realm were the very personification of lightning. They commanded the power of heavenly tribulations with ease, exhaling torrents of electrical energy.

These experts of the Thunder Realm converged to create a boundless sea of thunder across the vacuum, establishing it as their sovereign domain.

To step inside was to invite divine judgment, enduring a barrage of lethal strikes.

Suddenly, colossal thunder giants manifested, transforming into deities of retribution.

Billions of Primal Gods united their Cultivation to execute a combined strike, wielding enough power to bring down eternal-level beings.

When vast numbers of Eternal True Gods and Celestial Lords fought as one, they too possessed the capability to slay those from superior realms.

A war of this magnitude was never seen on the old Eternal Road, where powerhouses were far too rare; it was only after Chu Yuan reached the heavens that such a multitude of experts appeared.

The current clash between the primary forces of both sides was exceptionally brutal.

Within both the Martial and Thunder Realms, the silhouettes of countless falling soldiers could be seen.

The terrifying scale of the assault dominated the battlefield; an eternal monarch caught in the center would be pulverized instantly, and even those in higher imperial realms risked being torn apart.

In a war of the heavens, a lone expert can rarely alter the overall momentum of the fight.

That is, unless one truly possesses the power to defy the heavens.

Nevertheless, some formidable imperial entities were seen infiltrating the enemy's lines under the chaos of the fray.

“Die, die, die!”

From the Martial Realm, a potent Eternal Emperor stood tall like a Heavenly Emperor. Erupting with horrific combat strength and brandishing a massive blade, he unleashed a sweeping arc that brought the power of death crashing down.

In mere moments, his strike had decimated millions of soldiers.

“Heavenly Martial Seven Kills!”

This Heavenly Emperor pressed his advantage, executing the Heavenly Martial Seven Kills. Seven sword strikes flashed out, each one claiming ten million lives, effectively purging an entire sector of the battlefield.

“Heavenly Martial Heavenly Emperor, you are courting death!”

A supreme figure from the Thunder Realm took charge. Immediately, a deity of boundless rage wielding a thunder hammer manifested in a burst of divine anger, intercepting the Heavenly Martial Heavenly Emperor.

“Violent Thunder Heavenly Emperor, do you actually believe you can slay me?”

The Heavenly Martial Heavenly Emperor and the Violent Thunder Heavenly Emperor, two peerless Eternal Heavenly Emperors, began a titanic struggle, their collision creating forbidden zones of energy.

Chu Yuan transmitted these battle images back to the empire in real-time.

The sheer scale and savagery of the war left the citizens of the empire in a state of shock.

They realized that their previous conflicts were nothing more than skirmishes compared to this true war.

Yet, they felt no self-doubt; instead, they remained convinced that they would achieve even greater heights under their Emperor’s guidance.

“Eternal Divine Book, record the magnitude of this war with your pen. Distill the lessons and integrate new battle formations; the collective combat techniques of the heavens are a discipline we must master.”

Chu Yuan commanded.

Suddenly, a brilliant streak of light erupted within the Martial Realm’s ranks. Wherever the light passed, agonizing screams followed.

A massive number of Martial Realm experts were instantly reduced to cinders.

It was only natural to retaliate in kind.

Just as the Heavenly Martial Heavenly Emperor had struck at the heart of the enemy, the Thunder Realm launched its counterattack.

The assailant was the Flash Thunder Heavenly Emperor, a man of unmatched speed and piercing offensive power.

“Flash Thunder Heavenly Emperor!”

The Martial Realm spotted him, and their fury burned like a sun, with every Martial God radiating killing intent.

This Flash Thunder Heavenly Emperor was at the top of their kill list, with massive rewards offered for his head.

He had once successfully hunted a Martial Realm Heavenly Emperor.

A Heavenly Emperor, not a mere Emperor Lord!

Imperial realms are divided into two categories: those who reach the rank of Heavenly Emperor through individual Cultivation, and Emperor Lords who are elevated through the borrowed power of the heavens.

To any heaven, a Heavenly Emperor who ascended through their own merit is far more precious.

Such a Heavenly Emperor, when bolstered by their own innate strength, can exert far superior combat effectiveness.

In contrast, Emperor Lords are usually peak-level experts who have been forcibly promoted; though they can be revived if killed, they lack the same depth.

The power boost provided to a Heavenly Emperor is on a completely different level than that of an Emperor Lord.

The strength of a heavenly world is measured by its number of Heavenly Emperors.

Crack!

A ripple of destruction washed over the field.

A muscular, towering Martial God emerged, beginning a pursuit to stop the Flash Thunder Heavenly Emperor’s rampage.

The Flash Thunder Heavenly Emperor looked upon this Martial God with contempt; refusing to be pinned down, he used his superior speed to weave through the lines, slaughtering the weak.

“Flash Thunder, as a peak Heavenly Emperor, you waste your time killing the weak? Do you have no pride as a powerhouse? If you have the guts, face me in single combat!”

A Martial Realm Heavenly Emperor roared in rage.

This constant evasion made it impossible to catch the Flash Thunder Heavenly Emperor, and their side of the battlefield was crumbling under his relentless hit-and-run tactics.

However, this was a theater of war, not a formal duel. To ignore one's tactical advantages in favor of a "fair fight" was nothing short of stupidity.

“How idiotic.”

The cold voice of the Flash Thunder Heavenly Emperor rang out across the plains.

Did your martial arts training rot your brain? Who would be stupid enough to grant you a duel here?

“In a war of the heavens, because the heavens themselves are locked in a stalemate, they cannot easily intervene. Thus, the deciding factor rests with the Eternal Heavenly Emperors. A single dominant Eternal Heavenly Emperor has the potential to shift the entire tide of battle!”

Yi Celestial Lord, acting as the empire's strategist and national advisor, remarked calmly.

His Cultivation had now reached the level of an Eternal Celestial Lord, and he carried the subtle, burgeoning aura of a future monarch.

“You are right. In these celestial conflicts, it isn't just the strength of the heavens that matters, but the imperial realms. A top-tier imperial powerhouse can dismantle an entire battlefield formation. Currently, our empire is lacking in imperial realm experts.”

Chu Yuan noted.

But there was more to it.

The inherent power of the heaven itself was also a deciding factor.

Even within the same realm, there are vast differences in strength; no two are truly equal.

A dominant heaven can use its vast reserves to forcibly create more Emperor Lords. Through sheer numerical superiority, a weaker heaven cannot hope to compete.

History has shown many instances where weaker heavens were swallowed by more powerful ones.

There are even predatory heavens that hunt for newly formed, vulnerable worlds to devour.

However, since Martial and Thunder were both established, high-tier heavens, such an outcome was unlikely between them.
