The Lord of the Blazing Star, sovereign of the Endless Flames, let out an angry snort.
“Boom! Boom~~~” Every inch of space across the entire Primordial Star trembled. The space-time, previously fully controlled by the Demon Veil Master, was now being seized inch by inch… Clearly, the Flaming Star Master and the Demon Veil Master were locked in a struggle for control over this region of space within the Primordial Star.
“Lord of the Cursed!”
The massive beast within the flames roared, its voice tearing through layers of space and exploding directly in the ears of the Demon Lord, “That Golden-Horned Beast is a member of our Starbeast Alliance. Now that I have arrived, you no longer have any chance to harm him again! Hahaha… Come on then, since you can no longer suppress him by manipulating space, you’ll have to fly over slowly. With such a vast distance… the powerful beings of our Starbeast Alliance can already escape through a vortex passage. Hahaha…”
On the endless wasteland, the Demon Lord, towering like a mountain range, wore a furious expression as he growled deeply, “Lord of the Blazing Star, our Northern Frontier Alliance has long prepared this trap! Even if you stop me, I can still prevent you from controlling space-time! Then, under my command, the other powerhouses of our Northern Frontier Alliance will be able to completely encircle that Golden-Horned Behemoth! It still won’t escape.”
“First squad, advance toward cosmic coordinates…”
“Second squad, advance toward cosmic coordinates…”
The Lord of Demon Possession transmitted voice commands to the pre-arranged powerhouses of the Northern Frontier Alliance and even issued orders through the alliance to no fewer than six teams waiting at the other end of the vortex passage. Although the Lord of Demon Possession clearly could not suppress the Golden-Horned Beast through spacetime control, he could still clearly observe every move of the Golden-Horned Beast.
“Understood.”
“Orders received.”
Boom!
In no fewer than six vortex passages on the primordial star, several cosmic overlords surged forth almost simultaneously.
At this moment—
Dozens of cosmic overlords from the Northern Frontier Alliance gathered on the Primordial Star, launching a simultaneous encirclement of the Golden-Horned Behemoth from different directions.
“He is a member of our Starbeast Alliance,” the Lord of Flaming Star grew furious. Though he could not control space-time due to the interference, he could still sense everything happening on the Primordial Star. Even the Lord of Flaming Star had to admit at this moment— the North Territory Alliance truly was an alliance with the most races and the greatest number of powerhouses.
Although the Northern Frontier Alliance had only one Supreme Cosmic Being as its guardian, its numbers of Cosmic Lords and Cosmic Overlords were significantly greater.
Therefore, in the struggle for resources, the Northern Frontier Alliance was particularly aggressive.
“Lord of the Demon Veil, the strongest of our Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance, obtained a treasure, and you, merely a Universe Master, dared to scheme against it,” the Lord of the Blazing Star raged, “You have enraged me…”
“Hmph! Don’t talk to me about principles! In this vast universe, everything else is false—strength comes first,” the Demon Overlord also snorted coldly. “Lord Yanxing, I can give you face and spare that Golden Horned Beast from your Starbeast Alliance. But just hand over that divine sword from the Sword River Luo.”
Although just a component, the Sword River Luo was a supreme domain-type treasure, and in terms of offensive might, it rivaled even the most formidable attack treasures!
The Thorn Ring Alliance would undoubtedly go to any lengths to retrieve it.
A single divine sword… its value definitely exceeded that of a high-tier treasure.
“Hahaha, utterly absurd,” roared the Lord of Flaming Star, as the inferno around him surged violently. “Then let’s see—if you can summon powerful allies, can’t I? I’ll directly summon the Lord of Golden Horn! I’d like to see how you handle the elite warriors of my Starbeast Alliance!”
“Hmph!”
“Come then, what if you do?” The Lord of the Overwhelming Darkness, however, showed not the slightest fear and retorted angrily, “On the Primordial Star, it would probably take an eternity to fly here. Since I’m distorting space-time, no one can control it. Even if a Cosmic Sovereign wishes to confront someone, they’d still have to traverse the distance slowly. Am I to fear the Lord of the Golden Horn?”
Although he spoke in this manner, the Demon Lord secretly harbored a trace of unease within his heart.
Because the Golden Horn Master was one of the most formidable among the Cosmic Masters of the Starbeast Alliance, possessing no fewer than four divine bodies, which made him an exceptionally challenging adversary.
“You summon the Lord of Golden Horn, thinking the powerhouses of my Northern Territory Alliance are inferior to your Starbeast Alliance?” retorted the Lord of Demon Veil, refusing to yield. The elites of the Northern Territory Alliance harbored a peculiar arrogance, for they were a coalition of numerous formidable races. Before forming the alliance, they naturally had no choice but to bow their heads.
But after uniting and inviting a supreme powerhouse of the universe, a solitary traveler of the cosmos, to serve as their guardian… everything changed. They had always been subservient before, but since forming the Northern Frontier Alliance, they had never bowed again! They would rather die in battle than easily yield! Whenever a treasure appeared, the Northern Frontier Alliance would swarm over like madmen with countless powerhouses…
That was the Northern Frontier Alliance!
A somewhat fanatical alliance, renowned for its sheer number of powerhouses.
…
As the Demon Lord and the Flame Star Lord stood locked in a stalemate, separated by hundreds of millions of kilometers, an overwhelmingly powerful presence suddenly emerged from the vortex passage leading to the outside world. A towering figure over ten kilometers tall appeared, wielding an ancient, tattered stone rod, barefoot, and draped in the Thousand-Treasure Robe.
“Hahaha, I didn’t expect there to be two Lords of the Universe here,” a mighty voice boomed, while faint, indistinct murmurs began to ripple through the air. Though these sounds were soft, they resonated within the minds of every powerhouse across the Primordial Star.
Boom! Boom~~~
In an instant, a mighty river of stars surged forth, engulfing the entire Primordial Star. Upon this faintly discernible river floated countless bizarre and formidable artifacts, each emanating immense pressure. At that moment, every powerful being on the Primordial Star, including the Cosmic Overlords, dared not move a muscle.
“Chaos Citylord!” the Demon Overlord exclaimed in shock.
“Chaos City Lord!” The Lord of Flaming Star also exclaimed in shock.
Both were revered as Lords of the Universe, yet it was evident that their cosmic standing paled in comparison to the Chaos City Lord. Any one of the Chaos City Lord’s three avatars could decisively overpower the two of them combined. Moreover, the Thousand-Treasure River itself was a supreme domain-type treasure!
Though none of the three could control space-time, the Chaos Citylord did not need to. With this domain-type treasure alone—and a top-tier one at that—he could easily slay each Universe Overlord one by one.
Of course, the Chaos City Lord would not act recklessly unless he had decided to wage a full-scale war against the Northern Frontier Alliance and others. Otherwise, such an act of a mighty Universe Master slaughtering others would absolutely never be dared lightly.
“Chaos City Lord,” the Lord of Flaming Star tensed and growled, “That is a powerhouse from my Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance. With your exalted and peerless status, surely you wouldn’t lower yourself to snatching a young one’s treasure?”
“Hahaha… In this boundless universe, nothing else matters—strength reigns supreme. If the Chaos Citylord claims it, what can you possibly do?” The voice of the Demon Overlord echoed across.
“Chaos City Lord, please grant my Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance this favor,” the Lord of Flaming Star continued.
Without the Thousand-Treasure River, even if the Chaos City Lord was formidable, the Lord of the Blazing Star would not fear him.
But with the Thousand-Treasure River… the Chaos City Lord could instantly annihilate the Golden Horned Beast. This was one of the strengths of domain-type treasures—at least when facing weaker adversaries, their dominance was absolute.
“Does the Hong Alliance even care about your Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance?” the Demon Overlord added beside him, “Chaos City Lord, you possess formidable means and control this Thousand-Treasure River… This time, it’s a loss for our Northern Territory Alliance. I won’t interfere any further. As for who obtains this component of the Sword River Luo, you can settle it with the Lord of the Blazing Star.”
Although the Lord of Demon Covering declared he would no longer interfere, he secretly took great pleasure in watching the spectacle unfold.
The Hong Alliance was a very powerful faction.
The Starry Beast Alliance was highly independent and mysterious, yet extremely united. If these two factions clashed… it would be quite interesting.
“Chaos Citylord…” the Lord of Flaming Star began to speak.
“The Lord of Flaming Stars, the Chaos Citylord wouldn’t come here for nothing,” remarked the Lord of Demon Veil.
“Hahaha…” The laughter of the Chaos Citylord reverberated, unsettling the minds of both the Lord of the Blazing Star and the Lord of the Veiled Demon, who inwardly trembled in awe… It was said that the Chaos Citylord ranked among the most formidable Universe Masters beneath the Supreme Cosmic Beings, and truly, his reputation was well-deserved.
The Chaos City Lord laughed and said, “Lord of the Flaming Star, since you’ve put it so bluntly, I wouldn’t demean myself by snatching a youngster’s treasure. I’ll grant you this favor and step aside.”
The Demon Lord, standing on the boundless wasteland, was momentarily stunned!
The Lord of the Flaming Star within the flames immediately said, “That is truly most appreciated, Chaos Citylord.”
“Hmph!”
The Demon Overlord let out a cold snort, turned around, and strode directly into the swirling vortex passage.
“Retreat!”
The command of the Demon-Subduing Lord echoed in the ears of the dozens of cosmic overlords from the Northern Frontier Alliance. Though he had just declared that he would no longer interfere, and despite feeling a surge of irritation at the moment, he absolutely would not go back on his word. At their level, one could afford to be arrogant, wild, and unrestrained… but one’s word still had to be honored.
At their level, they still valued their reputation and dignity greatly.
“Go.”
“We’re leaving.”
Though unwilling, dozens of cosmic overlords like the Qixue Palace Master had no choice but to comply with the orders.
“Honored Universe Masters of the Hong Alliance, heed my command—cease all confrontation with the Golden-Horned Beast,” the Lord of Chaos City decreed with authority. As one of the supreme leaders within the Hong Alliance, the Universe Masters recognized his voice instantly and obeyed without hesitation.
Whoosh!
The Thousand-Treasure River vanished, and the Chaos Citylord took a single step and departed.
…
As the Chaos City Lord sent messages to the other powerhouses, Luo Feng received a different transmission in his ear:
“Disciple, now that the Starbeast Alliance is involved, this couldn’t be better. Once the Demon Ancestor declares he won’t interfere, the North Territory Alliance will certainly not intervene again. The other factions also understand that this matter involves three Universe Masters and will no longer attempt to obstruct you. The only remaining concern is the Thorn Ring Alliance, but you need not worry. Soon, have your Nine Nether Clone exit through the vortex passage along with some other powerhouses. Even if the Thorn Ring Alliance’s forces rush here, they will need time to prepare.”
Luo Feng secretly exhaled in relief, as everyone had now departed.
Whoosh!
The Golden-Horned Beast finally spread its wings to take flight, when suddenly—
“Little one,” the resonant voice of the Lord of the Flaming Star echoed in the ears of the Golden-Horned Beast, “I have never seen you among the ranks of the Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance. Have you always roamed the cosmos as a Golden-Horned Beast? Any Golden-Horned Beast, though they may wander the stars from youth, upon reaching the immortal level and being discovered, is swiftly welcomed and brought back to the Alliance. You are already so formidable, yet you have never returned?”
