The master of Yuanao, who had shrunk to the size of a fist, suddenly expanded rapidly while a wild, unrestrained laughter echoed, “Hahaha, Jiuyou, the legendary Jiuyou! The terrifying Jiuyou… His legendary ultimate move ‘Jiuyou·Sea Eye’ is renowned throughout the sea of universes, causing great powers to fear him. But now I have the Divine Tree! Jiuyou poses no threat to me anymore. Haha… In the Primeval Universe, the power of the strongest beings in the cosmos is only so strong; it’s barely a notch above Jiuyou’s legendary technique. No one can do anything to me now. Come on, Luo Feng of humanity! Yunan and Anmang, you three little ones, come forth… Let me crush you!”
The master of Yunan wore a serious expression: “Let’s go.”
Luo Feng nodded, and Anmang’s massive serpent head also gave a slight nod.
Whoosh!
Three streaks of light swiftly flew away.
The master of Yuanao, gripping the colossal black Divine Tree, stood in the void, watching the three streaks of light fleeing into the distance. He burst into maniacal laughter, “All you can do is flee! Hahaha! The Ancestral God Sect? Hah! You are powerless against the mightiest beings in the universe. With this Divine Tree in my hands, I am nearly on par with the strongest entities in the cosmos. Do you think I fear you? Hahaha…”
The three streaks of light shot out of the spatial blockade zone and vanished instantly through teleportation.
…
In a quiet void within Yuanao’s secret realm, a range of continuous mountains floated in the void, with waterfalls cascading from them.
Luo Feng, the master of Yunan, and the master of Anmang were beside the waterfall pool.
“Whoosh!”
A hazy glow lit up.
A figure stepped out—it was Jiuyou, the master, wearing his signature luxurious black robe.
“Jiuyou,” Luo Feng, Yunan, and Anmang turned to look.
“It’s powerful,” Jiuyou shook his head. “My strongest secret technique combined with self-destruction would have severely injured him if not for that Divine Tree. He used the black Divine Tree to resist my attack, blocking over ninety percent of it. I estimate that I only caused him to lose one-thousandth of his divine body.”
Luo Feng, Yunan, and Anmang remained silent for a moment.
Inflicting one-thousandth damage on Yuanao was already impressive. Luo Feng had fought Yuanao before but couldn’t injure him at all. It was only when Yuanao repeatedly used his strongest techniques that he suffered some losses. If Yuanao used his ultimate techniques with the black Divine Tree, although he might be at a disadvantage, he could definitely withstand Luo Feng’s attacks without any significant loss to his divine body.
“Jiuyou, in the Primeval Universe, only the strongest beings in the cosmos surpass you in offensive capabilities,” said Anmang.
“If you can’t do it, then what should we do?” Yunan added.
Luo Feng frowned.
Since becoming the Lord of the Milky Way, Luo Feng occasionally chatted with his teacher, the Lord of Chaos City, gaining deeper insights into the power of cosmic lords.
According to what was known…
Cosmic lords were categorized as: newly entered, ordinary, peak, and top-tier.
Among them, top-tier referred to those whose genetic level, treasures, and secret techniques were all at the peak. Lords like the Lord of Icepeak and the Lord of Void Gold, among other cosmic beings, could be classified into this tier.
However—
Lords like the Lord of Star River, the Lord of Chaos City, and Jiuyou were even more outstanding among them.
For instance, the Lord of Star River could perfectly combine two strongest secret techniques. Jiuyou’s clones, although their genetic level was only a thousandfold, could unleash all the energy of his divine body in an instant through self-destruction, causing a shocking surge in power!
Therefore…
Lords like the Lord of Star River, the Lord of Chaos City, and Jiuyou could be considered the best among the top-tier—recognized as the currently known strongest cosmic lords!
Of course, Jiuyou had an obvious weakness: each clone could only perform such a terrifying attack once. After that, he needed to teleport another clone from his divine kingdom, by which time the enemy would have already fled. Therefore, comparatively, the Lords of Star River and Chaos City were more formidable.
Comparing the Lords of Star River and Chaos City, the Chaos City Lord’s ability to sustain his strongest techniques wasn’t as strong as the Star River Lord’s.
The Star River Lord’s divine body was always a mystery. It was known that he could repeatedly use his strongest techniques for a long time, naturally making the Star River Lord’s deterrent power in the vast universe slightly stronger than the Chaos City Lord’s.
…
Above the “strongest cosmic lords” were the strongest beings in the cosmos!
The Primeval Universe imposed strong constraints on the power of the strongest beings. Each of them faced these constraints, limiting their strength to only slightly surpass that of lords like the Star River Lord and the Chaos City Lord. That was all! Of course, they had a clear advantage—they could continuously use such techniques without worrying about divine body consumption, as it was far below their limits.
“There is no one in the Primeval Universe who can kill Yuanao in a direct battle,” Jiuyou said.
“Then what should we do?”
“We can’t withstand him at all.”
Jiuyou glanced at Luo Feng and the other two: “Wait first! Wait until others arrive.”
“Okay.”
“We have no choice but to wait.”
…
The first to arrive was the insect race’s ‘Minglian’, one of the few cosmic lords of the insect race, each of whom was terrifyingly powerful. Even the weakest among them could be considered at the peak level. They were not only experts in illusion and other soul-based techniques but could also use insect warriors to launch physical attacks, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
“Boom! Boom!”
The cosmic space collapsed, and spatial particle streams rolled like countless grains of sand.
A dazzling dark golden hive floated in the void, surrounded by a full 1000 powerful insect warriors. Each warrior radiated immense power, each capable of being considered a top-tier cosmic overlord. Under the control of a cosmic lord’s consciousness, their power was even more violent and uncontrollable.
“Whoosh!”
Countless blades of light converged, sweeping across the sky.
“Hahaha, Minglian… it’s useless. Your techniques are of no use at all,” the master of Yuanao, a million kilometers tall, wielded a black Divine Tree millions of kilometers long, sweeping and smashing through the void, unstoppable, directly blocking the repeated combined attacks of the insect warriors.
Meanwhile, far away,
Jiuyou, Luo Feng, Anmang, and Yunan watched from afar.
…
Minglian was also skilled in escaping. Knowing she couldn’t win, she quickly withdrew with her insect warriors and regrouped with Jiuyou and the others.
“Jiuyou, you didn’t even help me,” the beautiful Minglian, with her delicate wings trembling slightly, looked at Jiuyou with her beautiful eyes.
“You’ve seen how powerful he is. Even if I helped, it wouldn’t make a difference,” Jiuyou shook his head.
“What does your Ancestral God Sect plan to do?” Minglian asked.
“What about your insect race?” Jiuyou countered.
“I’ll just observe and report everything back to the Queen. It’s up to her to decide what to do next,” Minglian replied.
Jiuyou smiled: “Then let’s wait.”
…
Each faction sent batches of cosmic lords to confront Yuanao, but they all suffered heavy losses. Fortunately, since the strongest beings of the major factions knew that Yuanao had acquired a mysterious artifact, they sent only either extremely powerful cosmic lords or those with formidable life-saving abilities, so no one was killed.
“Haha, look, Tianlang and Youmo have arrived too.”
“They two? They’ll just be crushed as well.”
A battle was indeed taking place in the void.
It was the demon race’s Tianlang and Youmo who had joined forces to confront Yuanao.
“Haha, Tianlang, Youmo, you two think you can fight me? What are you two worth?” Yuanao, holding the black Divine Tree, stood tall in the void like an invincible deity, wildly arrogant. His black Divine Tree sometimes extended to strike long distances, sometimes smashed violently.
Yuanao knew he couldn’t kill those who had hidden strengths, so he didn’t bother using his strongest secret techniques.
He only used ultimate secret techniques each time.
With Yuanao’s massive divine body, the consumption from ultimate secret techniques could be naturally replenished by his divine body, allowing him to fight endlessly without tiring.
“Haha!”
“I can still crush you two with just ultimate secret techniques!” Yuanao’s black Divine Tree swung, sending Tianlang flying or forcing Youmo to retreat repeatedly in mid-air.
“Damn it!”
“Cursed Yuanao!”
Tianlang and Youmo were furious.
They had already noticed that their battle had caught the attention of Jiuyou, Minglian, and Jiao from the Ancestral God Cult, the Bug Clan, and the Starry Sky Beasts Alliance, who were observing casually from a distance.
Tianlang and Youmo wanted to save face!
But Yuanao, who had been barely their equal before, now wielding the black wood, was clearly stronger than them even with ultimate secret techniques alone! They were being utterly crushed.
“No more fighting.”
“Jiuyou and the others didn’t fare any better either. Let’s go.”
“Let’s go.”
As soon as Tianlang and Youmo decided, they acted immediately. Tianlang instantly dove into his Tianlang Palace, while Youmo transformed into endless black mist, both quickly retreating.
“Hahaha… the Ancestral God Religion, the Bug Tribe, the Alliance of Starry Sky Beasts, the Demon Race—all of you have been driven away by me. I know you all desire this Divine Tree, but it is now in my possession. You can only look on with envy. Even the mightiest beings in the cosmos can do nothing about it. Hahaha…” Yuanao roared with laughter in the void.
…
As time passed, batch after batch of powerful beings arrived. Most of the major cosmic factions had come, and each was defeated and then naturally gathered together with Jiuyou and the others.
“Hmph.” The jet-black Tianlang looked at Luo Feng from afar. Standing on a floating peak in the secret realm with his four hooves, his eyes flashed with a trace of ferocity, “Luo Feng of humanity!”
Luo Feng, sitting cross-legged on a nearby rock, sensed the gaze and turned to look, locking eyes with Tianlang.
“Tianlang,” Luo Feng smiled faintly, then turned his head, ignoring the Tianlang Lord.
Luo Feng’s gaze swept around, looking at the various cosmic lords of different races standing, sitting cross-legged, or lying in the distance, and couldn’t help but feel puzzled: “Strange, why haven’t the cosmic lords of my human race arrived yet? Among the major factions, only the Mechanical Race and humanity haven’t shown up. I should ask my teacher about this!”
Immediately, Luo Feng connected his consciousness to the virtual universe.
