Location from Defiance of the Fall by TheFirstDefier
The higher planes of existence where the most powerful beings in the multiverse reside. Where Autarchs and beings beyond operate. Transcendent, incomprehensible to mortals, the ultimate destination.
The Heavens represent the ultimate ceiling of cultivation — the plane where Autarchs ascend to and beings of even greater power exist. For everyone below that level, the Heavens are more concept than place, a distant aspiration that drives all cultivation. The politics and conflicts of the Heavens occasionally ripple downward, causing catastrophic effects on lower planes. The Heavens are why beings like Emperor Limitless and the Lotus Emperor matter — their actions bridge the gap between transcendence and the mortal world.
Beyond mortal comprehension in their true form. Glimpses suggest infinite expanses of pure energy, where Dao manifests as visible, tangible reality. Space and time operate differently — a thought can cross light-years, a moment can contain eternities. The few descriptions from those who have glimpsed the Heavens speak of overwhelming beauty and terror in equal measure.
