In my resume, there have been nine Immortal Venerables in all of history! And some of them are also Demon Venerables.
You see… Immortal Venerables are those that were good people and did good deeds for the better of all the world and were righteous, while the Demon Venerable is the title given to those that were Demons, meaning, that stray from the path of righteousness and do vile acts, such as plundering, killing innocents, all for power…
The factions of Righteous and Demon Cultivators had always been a thing here. I guess we could be considered to be righteous, as we haven't gone killing innocent people nor we are looking for trouble.
We killed bandits but I am sure that we would be rewarded for that instead.
And I would assume that this faction thingy might apply more for stronger cultivators, not for us folk… Wait, I am very strong…
Also, these guys are the ones that reached Rank 10, many only got to Rank 9 and never were able to cross the gap, it seems that the knowledge and understanding of something important are needed for that.
As I could see, there was a big variety of Venerables, from all the Eras up until now…
The most recent Venerable was the Ice Queen Immortal Venerable, and she was also an Ice Giant, to boot. She lived approximately 100k years ago, and like any Venerable, she died due to her lifespan ending.
She is the most known because she was both the most recent and also an Ice Giant, so pretty much every sect in Jotunheim and Niflheim was affected by her doctrine. She was a firm, often cold, and also expressionless woman, it was said that although she was expressionless, she was a good leader, and she looked for cooperation between the races and harmony, she acted as a great ruler while she lived, and established many new righteous sects cross the entire world.
It was thanks to her that the reputation that Giants had with other races was lessened, as she was seen as an amazing venerable that finally brought an era of peace after the Demon Venerable before her died…
And this was… Crimson Blood Lord Demon Venerable.
This was a man, a mysterious and malicious man that took the lives of millions of innocents to raise to the level of power he had. He was an otherworldly demon and had the Unique Skill [Vampire Progenitor] which essentially made him the first vampire of this world.
He slaughtered people and absorbed their life essence through drinking their blood, hastening the cultivation of his Blood Attribute Mana Core, the Attribute he had mastered, which was late introduced across the world.
He had terrorized the world for thousands of years until he finally kicked the bucket due to his lifespan ending. Yes, even a damn Vampire died because his lifespan ended in here… Don't blame me please, I didn't make the rules here.
