A Saint Lord paused, momentarily not quite understanding why the Langya Saint Lord shifted the topic in this direction.

Only a few Saint Lords had a stirring in their hearts, recalling that thousands of years ago, when the Immortal Origin Holy Land successively gave birth to so many Saint Lords, they had already felt that something was amiss.

They speculated that the Immortal Origin Holy Land might possess a great opportunity; this time, being spurred on by the ancestors of the Human Race's three great families, could it not be for the same reason?

However, these kinds of thoughts were naturally not something they could voice out loud.

"It is naturally because the First Saint of Immortal Origin Holy Land, Er Lee, is wise and brave, with immense strength. With Er Lee leading us and combined with the extraordinary talents of everyone in the Immortal Origin Holy Land..."

"Indeed, we were fortunate enough to have listened to Er Lee's preaching in the Immortal Origin Holy Land. It was truly like receiving an enlightening baptism. Unfortunately, we did not have the opportunity to listen to it daily. We also do not possess the talents of the citizens of Immortal Origin Holy Land; otherwise, we would not have taken so long to break through to the Saint Lord Realm..."

Some Saint Lords said with ingratiating smiles.

The Langya Saint Lord shook his head and spoke indifferently, "That's not what you truly believe, is it? In truth, although the talents of the citizens of Immortal Origin Holy Land changed drastically after Er Lee grew up, they still did not reach the level where Saint Lords could easily emerge.

Otherwise, what do you think caused such a severe disparity among the strong and weak in the Immortal Origin Holy Land? Why are there so many strong enough to reach the Saint Lord Realm, yet there is not a normal proportion of strong ones below the Saint Lord Realm? And why are there more of the weak who are just ordinary people without cultivation?"

"What?"

"Why?"

Hearing the Langya Saint Lord's revelation-like words, the Saint Lords were shocked and promptly asked.

At this moment, they felt they were likely about to hear Immortal Origin Holy Land's deepest secrets, which could very well be the greatest opportunity the Immortal Origin Holy Land had to offer.

Even if the Langya Saint Lord wasn't going to share this opportunity with them, they were still eager to know.

"In this world, there is not only our universe but also infinitely many others, as numerous as the stars in our universe. You are all not average cultivators, so you should also be able to sense this to some extent..." The Langya Saint Lord glanced at them and spoke slowly.

"What? There are so many universes like ours in this world?"

"As numerous as the stars?"

The Saint Lords were just as shocked as Lin Yun when he first heard of this, voicing their astonishment.

Naturally, they had speculated that there was more than one universe in this world due to the legends of the Immortal Origin Holy Land — after all, the First Saint and others from Immortal Origin Holy Land had left this universe.

But many of them had not anticipated just how numerous these universes could be in this world.

Or perhaps some of them had considered it, but they never quite dared to believe it.

However, they were among the most eminent figures of their universe, many having cultivated for countless years, and a very few existing since its very inception. They had witnessed too many sights along the way and quickly came to accept this revelation.

"In the beginning, before I had even left my planet, I thought that was all there was to the universe. Afterwards, when I left the planet of my birth, I discovered how vast this world really was.

Later, I left the solar system, then came across even larger star systems, star domains, and so on — step by step, I encountered larger and larger worlds, until I broke through to an unprecedented realm and achieved infinite lifespan..."

"Infinite lifespan allowed me to traverse every corner of this universe. As time slowly passed and I could no longer advance further, I began to think that this was the extent of our world. Occasionally, stronger beings would appear but swiftly vanish. Although I mused that there could be other worlds beyond ours, I was never certain.

It wasn't until the emergence of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, and the rumors of its Saint Lords leaving one after another... that my speculations slowly started to become certainties. Nevertheless, I never imagined that the worlds outside this one could be so vast..."

A Saint Lord said, slightly sighing.

There are always stronger beings; above the high sky, there is another sky. At this moment, he seemed to truly understand the meaning of this saying.

```

Hearing the words of this Saint Lord, the other Saint Lords also nodded in agreement, fully concurring.

"Some universes are open, some are not, yet what's common is that every universe has different levels, representing different potentials and varying degrees of strength..." At that moment, Langya Saint Lord continued to speak, narrating the different tiers of the universes.

As he spoke, a new realm slowly unfolded before the group of Saint Lords.

"The universe... actually has levels..."

"Our universe has thirty-six New Layered Heavens..."

"The more New Layered Heavens are broken through, the higher the quality of a universe's environment? Before the Immortal Origin Sanctuary appeared, our universe had only broken through eighteen layers, and now, it has broken through thirty-three?"

"No wonder, I felt not just I, but also the people of my race, have been cultivating very quickly lately, continuously achieving breakthroughs. I thought it was because I had passed down the teachings of the saints of the Immortal Origin Sanctuary..."

Listenting to Langya Saint Lord's narration, each Saint Lord exclaimed in surprise.

The information Langya Saint Lord provided was all new to them, unheard and unknown, each piece felt fresh.

"When a new layer is broken, the energy granted by the heavens and earth to the one who breaks it is very mysterious and immense, a sort of energy that even some top cultivators outside can hardly obtain, an encounter hard to come by.

It is this mysterious energy that allows saints from the Immortal Origin Sanctuary to emerge in succession and even reach higher realms..." Langya Saint Lord went on to say.

"Higher realms? May I ask, Langya Saint Lord, how are the realms of the First Saint divided?" Upon hearing Langya Saint Lord mention a higher realm for the second time, one of the Saint Lords felt intrigued and promptly asked.

As their interaction with Langya Saint Lord continued, they became certain that he harbored no ill will towards them, which inevitably brought them closer to Langya Saint Lord.

Hearing the Saint Lord's question, the other Saint Lords couldn't help but focus intently on Langya Saint Lord.

The realms of the First Saint, they were certain, had levels of strength.

Being in this realm themselves, they naturally wanted to know how it was divided and even what level they themselves were at.

"The realm of the First Saint? In the outside world, this realm is not called the realm of the First Saint but the Sanctuary realm! The Sanctuary has three levels: Saint Lord, Saint Lord, and Saint King, each with four tiers: lower, middle, upper, and peak!" Langya Saint Lord shook his head and said.

"Saint Lord! Saint Lord! Saint King!"

"Lower! Middle! Upper! Peak!"

A group of Saint Lords exclaimed.

"The gap between a Saint Lord and a Saint Lord, and that between a Saint Lord and a Saint King, is like the gulf between an ordinary Cultivator and the superlative realm, or the difference between the superlative realm and the Saint Lord Realm, or even far greater.

Outside, Saint Lords are as common as hairs on an ox, quite ordinary, whereas Saint Lords are as rare as horns on a horse, truly remarkable..." Langya Saint Lord nodded slightly as he spoke.

In the midst of speaking, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy and jealousy, particularly towards the True Martial Saint Lord.

He was but an upper-level Saint Lord, not yet a Peak Saint Lord, while the True Martial Saint Lord was already a formidable figure in the Saint Lord Realm. Once they arrived in the outside world, their difference was as vast as heaven and earth.

Both having cultivated under Master Er Lee thousands of years ago, yet now the gap between them was so wide, how could he not feel envious and jealous of the True Martial Saint Lord?

"If it wasn't that Master Er Lee favored True Martial, teaching him many techniques but not me, or that when the blessings of energy descended from heaven and earth, Er Lee gave more to True Martial but less to me, how could there be such a great disparity between us?

In the end, when Master Er Lee led a group of those in the Sanctuary to leave, only leaving me and True Martial behind, it confirmed this bias! If not for favoritism, I would have been stronger than some of them, so why not take me? Thus, Master Er Lee... don't blame me... if blame must be placed, it's because you were too partial..." Langya Saint Lord silently mused.
