At this moment, Ye Tian was severely injured, looking quite disheveled, but he felt extremely excited, his face full of smiles.
He had become the Lord of the Desolate Realm.
Therefore, he feared nothing.
Even though he was severely injured, he could now completely control the power of the Desolate Realm, stripping these Innate Deities of their control over the realmâs power. As a result, their strength plummeted, rendering them no match for him.
Thus, the battle had ended.
âSurrender, or you will all die!â Ye Tian said coldly.
âSurrender to an external Heavenly Venerable? Impossible!â A Supreme-level Innate Deity spoke.
At this moment, Ye Tian waved his hand, and the power of the Desolate Realm bound the opponent.
âDie!â
Ye Tian merely pointed a finger, and the Supreme deity was effortlessly obliterated.
This scene completely stunned the numerous Innate Deities, leaving them dumbfounded.
They attempted to control the power of the Desolate Realm, only to find they couldnât. Their strength dropped significantly, making them unable to resist Ye Tian.
âWe lost!â Desolate Supreme sighed.
âDesolate Supreme, do you still wish to resist?â Ye Tian asked.
âI am willing to surrender!â Desolate Supreme bowed.
A wise man knows when to submit to circumstances. He naturally understood this principle. If he could kill Ye Tian, he would have done so at any cost.
But now, they had failed to kill Ye Tian. Ye Tian had successfully controlled the Desolate Realm, and their resistance was meaningless.
Desolate Supreme did not want to die, so he naturally chose not to resist Ye Tian.
âVery good. Although you all tried to kill me just now, I am a magnanimous person. I wonât do anything to you because the Desolate Realm still needs you to guard and maintain it. So, I wonât kill you!â Ye Tian said.
He wasnât lying but stating the truth.
These Innate Deities were a powerful force. If he killed them all, external forces could easily invade, and he alone might not be able to withstand those external Supremes.
The reason he could disregard this group of Innate Deities was because he could strip them of their ability to control the Desolate Realmâs power. If he allowed them to use the realmâs power, he still wouldnât be their match.
Therefore, this group of Innate Deities was crucial.
They were excellent helpers.
Moreover, he needed to frequently cultivate and was too lazy to manage the Desolate Realm. It was necessary to leave this group of Innate Deities.
âI need to heal. You may leave now!â Ye Tian said.
The numerous Innate Deities hesitated for a moment but then retreated, not daring to act rashly.
Even with Ye Tian severely injured, they had no hope of winning. It was better to withdraw, or they would end up like the Innate Deity who had just died.
After the Innate Deities retreated, Ye Tian began to heal on the spot, using healing talents to recover from his injuries while also consuming a large amount of healing medicine.
Despite this, Ye Tian felt that the wounds on his second true body and soul were severe, making it difficult to fully recover.
âThe potential of the second true body has been almost exhausted. Itâs hard to continue progressing, but the value it has brought is sufficient!â Ye Tian thought to himself.
In the blink of an eye, several years had passed. Ye Tian had nearly repaired his second true body, though some deeper wounds proved difficult to heal, and he had grown lazy about fixing them.
One day, Ye Tian summoned several ancient Innate Deities of the Desolate Realm, including the Desolate Supreme.
He did not immediately bring his main body to the Desolate Realm but first sought to understand the realmâs situation.
During the meeting, Ye Tian asked the Desolate Supreme, âDesolate Supreme, you are the oldest Supreme of the Desolate Realm. You should be quite knowledgeable about it. I only know that the Desolate Realm was left behind by the Innate Desolate Clan, but I donât know much about anything else!â
The Desolate Supreme replied honestly, âLord, we actually donât know much about the Desolate Realm either. It indeed was left by the Innate Desolate Clan, which seemed to be a clan from the Fifth Cosmic Epoch. The Innate Desolate Clan consisted of the first batch of Innate Deities who combined to form the clan and then created many bloodline clansmen, forming a powerful race.
We Innate Deities have obtained a lot of information from the Desolate Tower, including detailed information about the Desolate Realm.
According to what we have learned, it seems that the Desolate Realm was not built by the Innate Desolate Clan!â
âThe Desolate Realm wasnât built by the Innate Desolate Clan?â Ye Tian was somewhat surprised.
âYes, it wasnât built by the Innate Desolate Clan!â The Desolate Supreme continued, âOnly the Desolate Tower was constructed by the Innate Desolate Clan as the strongest supreme treasure, but not the Desolate Realm itself.
The Innate Desolate Clan didnât have the power to build a storage world like the Desolate Realm. Although the Desolate Realm is not a Chaos Supreme Treasure, it is a top-tier Chaos Spirit Treasure. In terms of level, it is comparable to the strongest supreme treasure, but it is still more powerful since the limits of a Chaos Spirit Treasure exceed those of a supreme treasure.â
âChaos Spirit Treasure? Could it be that it comes from Chaos?â
Ye Tian suddenly realized.
Chaos Spirit Treasures are categorized below Chaos Supreme Treasures and theoretically are on the same level as the strongest supreme treasures but are more valuable.
âYes, the Desolate Realm indeed comes from Chaos. During a Chaos Tide in the Fifth Cosmic Epoch, the universe swallowed it, and it was subsequently discovered and occupied by the Innate Desolate Clan. This secret was scarcely known even in the Fifth Cosmic Epoch. People only believed that the Desolate Realm was built by the Innate Desolate Clan, but that was just a rumor spread intentionally by the clan. It was because of the Desolate Realm that the Innate Desolate Clan became so powerful!â The Desolate Supreme explained.
âI see!â Ye Tian began to understand.
He had previously suspected that if the Innate Desolate Clan could indeed create such a terrifying Desolate Realm, why werenât they one of the dominant forces in the Twelve Cosmic Eras?
If the Innate Desolate Clan was truly that formidable, they would have become the rulers of a Cosmic Epoch, and they should have known how to avoid the Great Cosmic Destruction.
Now he finally understood the reason. The Innate Desolate Clan wasnât inherently powerful; they had merely been fortunate to occupy the Desolate Realm.
âDesolate Supreme, couldnât you refine the Desolate Tower?â Ye Tian asked again.
In his view, the Desolate Tower was just a supreme treasure, and these Supremes should have been able to refine it.
âLord, we cannot refine the Desolate Tower!â The Desolate Supreme quickly replied, âThe Desolate Tower is integrated with the Desolate Realm, making it impossible for us to refine it, but you should be able to!â
âI see!â Ye Tian understood.
After asking a few more questions, he dismissed the Desolate Supreme and the other Innate Deities.
He also gave them a task: to proclaim his existence and make all the races of the Desolate Realm recognize him as their master.
On this day, Ye Tian arrived at the Desolate Tower, prepared to refine it!
