Anatta Grand Exalt is one of the Seven Grand Exalts of the Saints' World, ranked 3rd amongst the Grand Exalts. They have comprehended the Great Ways of Creation, Destruction, Fire, and Emotion at 100% completion - becoming an existence akin to the laws themselves.
Description[]
A figure shrouded in hazy light was sitting within the majestic Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. The power of laws revolved around the figure, conjuring the mysteries of the world. Vaguely, the laws seemed to boom out like a great chime.
The figure seemed to have fused with the laws, becoming a part of them. The figure truly seemed to be supreme, capable of controlling the supreme power that operated the world. They seemed to represent the greatest will of the world.
The pair of eyes of this being were extremely cold, holding no emotions at all and looking down on all lives. Inside, there was even indifference towards life. It was like an invincible, supreme ruler that controlled the universe looking down at the lives in the world, viewing them all as ants.
Their voice seemed to contain all the sounds of the world, so you’ll hear whatever you think it is. It sounded male if someone believed it to be male. It sounded female if someone believed it to be female. As a matter of fact, if someone believed it to be the cries of birds and beasts, it would sound like the cries of birds and beasts. This was because all the sounds in the world were contained in that person's voice.[2]
True Appearance[]
By dissipating all the lights of the great laws, she is a young woman with a face as beautiful as a fairy, like a piece of exquisite jade that has been carefully carved, covering all the beauty in the world. It was quiet and beautiful, but in her beautiful eyes, which seemed to contain the infinite mysteries between heaven and earth, and were vaguely intertwined with the laws of the Dao.
Personality[]
Like most of the Grand Exalt, Anatta is cold, aloof, prideful and untainted by worldly affairs. Anatta has a strong sense of belonging and duty towards the Saints' World. Anatta usually hides her appearance from the world to the point that no one knew her gender before recently. Even though Anatta comprehended the Way of Heartlessness, she still has fealings for Jian Chen.
Plot[]
War of the Major Worlds[]
In the war between the Saints' World and the World of Immortals, Anatta had been heavily injured by the Nirvanic Grand Exalt. In her retreat, she was betrayed by Ta Ji in an ambush set up by Flame Reverend. At that time, the Flame Reverend Grand Prime wanted to take the Anatta Grand Prime’s comprehension of the Laws of Fire while she was heavily injured, but in the end, the Flame Reverend underestimated the Anatta Grand Prime. He still was not her opponent even when she was heavily injured.
In the end, the Anatta Grand Prime’s disciple, Ta Ji, was personally killed by the Anatta Grand Prime, and even the Flame Reverend lost his body to the Anatta Grand Prime, fleeing with just his soul.[3]
However, Anatta had also lost her body due to that fight and her Primordial Spirit was forced to escape and entered reincarnation. And her most famous treasure, the Anatta Tower, fell to the Tian Yuan Realm. As a result, she was considered dead by most people in the Saint's Realm.
However, she had actually undergone reincarnation for the last three million years. Eventually, she adopted Kai Ya as her Reincarnation Body.
Awakening[]
After three million years, during the war against the World of Forsaken Saints, Kai Ya was kidnapped by one of the invaders. In the face of grave danger, the Anatta Supreme was able to awaken briefly and protected her. However, it resulted in her slumbering for several hundred years, during which time she was protected and healed by Jian Chen.
Leaving the Reincarnation Body[]
By the time the Anatta Supreme awakens again, she had been led to the Saints' World and decides to leave the body of Kai Ya behind. However, the actions of Jian Chen moved her, so that she felt indebted towards him even though she knew his identity as the successor of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.
Thereafter, the Anatta Supreme keeps a variable degree of control over Kai Ya, such as sealing her memories and manipulating her Cultivation. This has the double purpose of paying back her debt towards Jian Chen, while still profitting from the feelings of Kai Ya towards Jian Chen by absorbing her as a Fruit of Ways to comprehend the Way of Love.
In the Saints' World, most high-level characters who notice the existence of the relationship between Anatta and Jian Chen are led to believe that she intends to convert him into her Sixth Fruit of Ways, The Way of Heartlessness. This was confirmed by Anatta herself, proclaiming that Jian Chen was in fact her Fruit of Ways.
The result of such a process would be the severance of the peak emotions that Anatta would otherwise feel towards Jian Chen after consuming the Fruit of Ways. Doing so would help Anatta gain another peak law at a hundred percent and revert herself back into the indifferent disposition she had shown before. This was a crucial factor in considering this path since the Way of Love is a volatile state that is influenced by emotions, which was not ideal to an otherwise supreme being.
Advent of the Strongest[]
When Ming Dong visited the Overarching Heaven Clan as the Ninth Majesty, it was the same as announcing to the world that the Anatta Grand Exalt was still alive. This piece of news swept through the forty-nine great planes and eighty-one great planets of the Saints’ World with startling speed. Even some sects that were not stationed on any great plane or planet, as well as archaean clans hidden in the vast cosmos, received this startling and exhilarating piece of news as soon as possible.[4]
It was then that Anatta assumed the role as leader of the Grand Exalts and of the entire Saints' World as the strongest. Anatta led the campaign against the Grand Exalts of the Immortals' World in the Chaotic Space.
The Great Reveal[]
At the time, Anatta, Overarching Heaven, and Bloodtear fought the Immortal Exalts when they tried to enter the Saints' World. The goal of the opposition was to find Ancient Ways and impede the creation of the super weapon intended to challenge the Book of the Populace. However, Anatta's four peak laws was unmatched even against the combined strength of Waymight and Samsaric. Unfortunately, when she induced the events unfolding in the Saints' World, it was already too late.
The three Grand Exalts descended unto the location where Jian Chen was besieged by the Eight Saint Monarchs. All of them noticed Jian Chen as the successor of Violet Heavens, which caused Anatta to feel a pang of distress. To her, it was too soon for Jian Chen's status to be revealed so abruptly. However, the truth was presented before her and she had no choice but to proceed with her plan in front of the onlookers.

As a Grand Exalt that possesses four laws at a hundred percent, Anatta is considered as the strongest in the current Saints' World. Moreover, with the loss of the Nirvanic Immortal Exalt, Anatta is by extension the current strongest in the Six Major Worlds. This can be attested to the fact that the Saints' World Grand Exalts were able to gain most of the spoils during the opening of the Chaos Space.
