They suffered many attacks during those years, but under the shocked eyes of the immortal plane, they managed to survive every looming tragedy, something that caused their talented Matriarch's status to untold heights.
However, it was only she herself who realized that something must have been wrong. Though she was confident in her own abilities, and even known for her own fair share of arrogance, she wasn't a fool. Unfortunately, try as she might, she was unable to find out what the truth was.
It was said that it was during those years she fell in love with a nameless young man of her Clan…
The Matriarch of the Eostre Clan would be shocked in the coming year. During much of their time together, the seemingly ordinary young man didn't display any great talents, and, due to her status, she could only keep the veneer of a single woman as her main identity while keeping their relationship a secret.
It wasn't that she was ashamed of her love, but rather that she was doing her best to protect her love. It might have been nothing for a weak woman to love a strong man in the martial world. But, the vice versa was often a death sentence. With how many marriage proposals she had rejected, if there ever came a time where they learned of the truth, the weak young man she had fallen for would suffer.
However, who could have known that the supposedly weak young man wasn't weak at all?
It was inevitable that their relationship would be found out. But, the day it had been, the young man showed his true colors, revealing his identity as the Nameless Immortal God.
It was said that he was fearful of her rejecting him after knowing this truth. However, the reality was much different from what he had imagined.

However, who in the world could he trust more than his own wife? After melding their souls into one, what secrets could he possibly hide from her?
Unfortunately, this ended in tragedy as well. His sixth wife silently died of old age…
In fact, it could be said that the only reason that the elven hegemon didn't dare to attack the Eostre Clan any longer, and even lowered their face to allow them to return, was precisely because they were scared of the revenge of the Nameless Immortal God.
This time the death of his wife didn't lead to a boundless slaughter. It could be said that the ones who suffered the most were the countless suitors who dared to take a liking to his wife.
Instead, these years became the flourishing time due to the introduction of the discipline that changed the immortal plane: array alchemy.
It was impossible to think that this murderer would actually become a man who gave back in such a way, but this was what happened.
During this time, the Time and Space Immortal God accepted a second disciple and the murderous Nameless Immortal God became a doting senior brother.
It was said that his next two wives came in a pair. They had always been great rivals, one believing in the fist above all else and the other believing in the sword.

They took a path similar to his own, rising up under their own power and earning positions among their hegemons with their own two hands. He cared for them both deeply, and truthfully, it was said that he originally had no intention of taking them as wives but rather as two little sisters.
It was only due to their pursuit of him and their strong resolve and persistence that they eventually became his seventh and eighth wife.
Unfortunately, they too died of old age. Their paths of cultivation were too unconventional and both of them tried to reach a goal none had ever before.
The Nameless Immortal God had no intention to rampage after their deaths. His heart was filled with sadness beyond compare, but for whatever reason, he managed to maintain his tranquility, as though he had made an important decision.
However, those of the immortal plane, too blinded by their own fear, decided to pre-emptively attack, not wanting another massacre to begin. In doing so, they brought down their own suffering. It was said that due to their actions, the Nameless Immortal God wasn't able to be by their sides during their final breaths, causing him to lose himself in rage once more.
This time, he completely lost his mind. He wanted to be peaceful, he wanted to live up to their expectations of him, yet there were those who still stood out to ruin it all.
In the past, hadn't he only attacked the clans that slighted him? When had he ever touched a clan without reason? How dare they?
It was said that on that day, his dao heart deviated. He had been on the precipice of true tranquility, but his mind split into two paths. One birthed the Purity Flame and the other… the Chaos Flame.

It was during that time that the Divine Tablet erased all the names that had once been on it, replacing it with just a single title, the first title it had ever given without the moniker of Immortal God attached to it…
The Reaper of the Martial World.
The Nameless Immortal God was an existence that surpassed all reason and logic, a man who managed to transcend the limitations of the Heavens and grow powerful enough that even that boundless entity itself could no longer control him.
The Divine Tablet was the only treasure of those lofty rankings that was birthed by the Heavens itself, yet even it didn't dare to so casually name this name…
In those times, it really seemed that the Immortal Plane was finished. Countless Hegemons with trillions of years of history fell under the rage of this one man.
However, it was this man's ninth wife that saved them all from such a fate… His ninth wife wasn't an unknown woman at all… In fact, his ninth wife was actually the very same woman as his first wife…
Her memories were awakened by the presence of the Purity Flames, because from the very beginning, those flames were hers, gifted to him by her knowing that such a day would come.
