Chapter 683: Pinnacle
To this day, the scope of energy, matter, time, and spatial radiation within the universe continued to extend beyond 100 billion light-years, even after the Ancient Astral World's collapse and its prolonged decay.
Traversing such a distance was a daunting challenge, even for the Supreme beings. As a result, not even these powerful entities could spread their influence to every corner of the universe. This was why the Sovereign Races had territorial divisions and disputes over their domains.
In essence, the range of a Supreme's power defined the absolute dominion of their race's territory. Beyond this sphere of influence lay the contested regions, where conflicts and rivalries unfolded.
Yet, at this very moment, an unprecedented disturbance was rippling through the cosmos, sending tremors across the vast expanse of space.

Planet Vanthor was a celestial body with a diameter of one hundred thousand kilometers. It belonged to a formidable interstellar civilization, one that had thrived for over a hundred thousand stellar years.
This civilization boasted more than a hundred life-sustaining planets and countless mineral-rich worlds. Throughout its vast history, it had amassed an unparalleled legacy. Counting just the Demigods alone, no fewer than ten had risen to prominence. Even now, three Demigods continued to oversee the civilization, while the ranks of Legendary figures were beyond counting.
Counting just the Demigods alone, at least ten had risen to prominence. Among them were many Tier Four Legends who have awakened the power of inner spirit.
The ruler of Planet Vanthor was the descendant of one such Legend. He himself possessed the strength of a Tier Three Legend. At just over a century old, he still had a chance to push forward, comprehend the inner spirit power, and ascend to the ruling class of their civilization.
At this moment, he awoke in a grand mountain villa and stepped out onto a spacious balcony. A dozen graceful young women quickly approached, attending to his needs.
He quietly enjoyed their service, his gaze sweeping across the vast landscape. Mountains, rivers, and endless plains stretched out before him.
At the horizon, a pale golden sun was rising, casting a radiant glow over the world, as if draping the heavens and earth in a golden veil. He admired the scenery like an emperor surveying his domain.
