The Master of Bashi was not an ordinary being living in the small universe of the Axe Creator. Many humans who had witnessed the collapse of the heavens and the disintegration of space did not understand its meaning. But how could the Master of Bashi fail to comprehend?
“Actually, a peak human of the universe has perished!” The six eyes of the Bashi Master bulged wide open.
“The Primordial Ancestor of humans was suppressed long ago by the essence of the original universe, and will remain suppressed forever,” one of the Bashi Master’s eyes rolled around. “Now only the Axe Creator was left holding things up. Now even the Axe Creator has fallen. Doesn’t this mean the human race is no longer a supreme race?”
“The Mechanical Race, the Ya Race, the Insect Race, and the humans… these four races have always been the most arrogant, occupying the four best territories. Even we Y races are looked down upon.”
“Now that the Axe has fallen.”
“The Mechanical Race, the Ya Race, and the Insect Race will certainly not let the humans go unchallenged.”
“And previously, Luo Feng, the human Galaxy Lord, obtained the inheritance of the Duandonghe lineage, which all forces in the entire universe sea coveted… This lineage inheritance offers the chance to transcend samsara. Now, things are going to get even more violent.” The Bashi Master quickly realized what the fall of the Axe meant.
The fall of the Axe was obviously impossible to conceal.
But…
It was just a matter of who found out first.
“Now the news hasn’t leaked out at all, so the other races probably don’t know yet.” The Bashi Master nodded inwardly. “I must immediately report to our race.”
…
The homeland and birthplace of the Y race was a place known as ‘Y’.
Y was extremely dangerous. Life born there constantly killed each other, countless lives perishing every moment. They were divided into many races… but since they all originated from ‘Y’, they collectively called themselves—the Y race! Among the endless ‘Y’, the highest-ranking figure was undoubtedly the legendary Y race Demon Ancestor!
Endless mountains exuded boundless cold.
Layer upon layer of mountains.
Each mountain was covered with countless steps, countless steps… stretching upward, extending into the misty heights. On these steps were powerful Y race beings, exuding overwhelming auras. This endless, vast, and majestic mountain range was also called the Y race ancestral mountain.
Boom!
A figure instantly appeared, flying directly toward the summit of the ancestral mountain.
The powerful Y race guards on the steps, upon seeing the arrival, dared not block the way. Moments later… the figure reached a plaza in front of a magnificent palace complex.
“Master Bashi, what urgent matter do you have?” A guard leader at the far end of the plaza roared.
“Undoubtedly something major.” The Bashi Master replied solemnly.
Boom~~~ The palace doors behind the guard leader automatically opened, and a shrill voice, like the clashing of blades and swords, rang out: “Enter.”
“Demon Ancestor!” The Bashi Master quickly flew in.
…
Inside the palace.
As the Bashi Master entered, he looked up and saw a figure suddenly appear on the high throne. It was a sinister figure, a mix of silver and black. This sinister figure was roughly humanoid in shape, with a long, scorpion-like tail that was sharp and extended, even circling half the hall.
Underneath the silver armor, a pair of red eyes looked down.
This was the Demon Ancestor!
The Demon Ancestor of the Y race!
Under the Demon Ancestor’s guiding philosophy… the internal struggles and conflicts within the Y race were extremely brutal, and the hierarchical system was particularly strict. This fierce mutual fighting and struggle from the lowest levels made every rising Y race expert absolutely ruthless, fanatical, and ferocious. Humans were different; humans adopted a relatively peaceful strategy in cultivating the general populace.
“Demon Ancestor!” The Bashi Master said respectfully.
“Appearing before me in a mere avatar? What is it?” The Demon Ancestor’s voice made the Bashi Master’s heart tremble.
The Bashi Master quickly replied: “My true body was preparing to go to the Qingfeng Realm—”
“Tell me, what’s so urgent!” The Demon Ancestor was impatient.
“It’s the Axe Creator. The Axe Creator has perished.” The Bashi Master could no longer hold back, blurting out, “The Axe Creator has fallen.”
Crack!
A phantom flashed by, and an arm covered in a silver shell and filled with black muscles instantly reached the Bashi Master, grabbing him tightly. At the same time, the Demon Ancestor’s eyes emitted a hazy red light, directly enveloping the Bashi Master, urgently asking: “The Axe? You’re saying the human Axe Creator has perished? Are you joking? His power is far greater than you can imagine!”
Although the Demon Ancestor did not know the true strength of the Axe Creator, he had an inkling and knew the Axe was terrifying.
“I would never dare deceive the Demon Ancestor,” the Bashi Master quickly said. “When my true body was heading to the Qingfeng Realm, I passed by through teleportation and saw his small universe. I was shocked to discover… the Axe Creator’s small universe actually had cracks and holes on its surface, with massive chaotic flows pouring in. You could even see the collapsing space and shattered continents through the holes, clearly indicating the small universe was beginning to collapse… The Axe Creator must be dead.” The Bashi Master continued, “Knowing how serious this was, I didn’t dare delay and immediately sent my avatar to report.”
Crack.
The black muscular arm released its grip and slowly withdrew.
The Demon Ancestor on the throne had his eyes flickering, then finally said: “If this is true, you have done a great deed.”
Swish!
The Demon Ancestor vanished from the throne in an instant.
…
Only moments later.
In the chaotic currents of the Cosmic Sea, not far from the membrane of the original universe, an evil figure stood in the void. His massive, sharp tail encircled his body, and his pair of red eyes gazed far into the distance at the vast small universe.
“The Axe’s small universe.” The Demon Ancestor stared intently.
Boom!
With a single step, the Demon Ancestor reached the edge of the small universe’s membrane, crashing into it with a thunderous impact, causing a portion of the membrane to instantly collapse. He plunged into the small universe.
“Fragile membrane.” The Demon Ancestor glanced back. “It can’t even repair itself, not a trace of vitality remains.”
He turned his head.
The Demon Ancestor looked at the floating fragments of space in the vast expanse, each fragment containing pieces of land. The entire universe was still gradually collapsing.
“The Axe has actually perished.” The Demon Ancestor’s eyes flickered. “Truly incredible. So powerful, and not long ago he had just obtained an ultimate treasure. Logically, his strength… should be beyond anyone’s ability to kill him. As a peak human of the universe, how cautious and vigilant he must have been. Even in the three most perilous places, he wouldn’t easily put himself in a desperate situation, yet he has perished! How did he die?”
The Demon Ancestor was secretly horrified.
“That alone is bad enough.”
“Now that he’s dead, things are going to get interesting.” The Demon Ancestor’s eyes gleamed with anticipation. “I’ll just stir things up a bit. Although the Axe is dead, the human race still has seventeen universe monarchs. And previously, the Galaxy Lord Luo Feng obtained the inheritance of the Duandonghe lineage. With his assistance, the human race’s strength is not simple.”
“Especially the Primordial Ancestor…”
“The Primordial Ancestor probably left the human race some trump cards.” The Demon Ancestor mused.
“But even so, a race without even one peak human of the universe, yet possessing the inheritance of the Duandonghe lineage, hmm.” The Demon Ancestor mused. “Let the Ya race, the Mechanical race, and the Insect race go first! Let’s see what depth the human race has, whether they can hold up. If they can’t, our Y race will step in quickly too.”
…
Soon.
With the Demon Ancestor’s covert instigation, the news of the Axe Creator’s fall spread almost simultaneously among the Ya race, the Mechanical race, and the Insect race.
…
In the original universe, a silent starry sky.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three wills surged through the void and instantly descended. One was a huge oval-shaped ball-like phantom, one was a graceful phantom, and one was a huge silver-white snake head.
“Moncha, Empress, you should have already investigated, right?” The oval-shaped ball phantom spoke.
“Yes.” The graceful phantom replied.
“The Axe has indeed perished.” The silver-white snake head also said. “This news was first discovered and spread by a wandering Master Fan Hua. It won’t be long before the entire original universe knows!”
The oval-shaped dark ball phantom spoke solemnly: “The humans and our three races occupy the best territories in the original universe. This territory can nurture the most promising lives. Our three races have always been the strongest… especially the humans, whose Primordial Ancestor is extremely powerful! Although the Axe’s strength has never truly erupted, every time he has shown some of his power, you all know. With two successive peak humans of the universe being so strong, the potential of the lives nurtured in the human race’s territory is indeed extraordinary.”
“Territorial competition is inevitable.” The oval-shaped ball phantom continued. “Especially now, the inheritance of the Duandonghe lineage will undoubtedly arouse the envy of all races in the original universe.”
“Yes.”
“Exactly. Who wouldn’t be envious? This is an opportunity to transcend samsara.”
“What should we do?”
The three peak humans of the universe conversed with each other.
They all had thoughts of attacking, but if only one side attacked, it would be difficult, and they also worried that if they attacked and suffered losses, other forces would take advantage.
“The human race’s strength is not ordinary.” The graceful phantom’s voice was extremely pleasant. “The Primordial Ancestor was even more powerful back then. Perhaps he left the human race some hidden cards. And that Luo Feng’s Tomb Ship is also extremely powerful… I’m worried that Luo Feng not only has the Tomb Ship but might have brought out other treasures as well. Therefore, if we are to act, our three races must act together.”
“Exactly!”
“Those who want to wait and reap the benefits later, our three races can handle them together without much difficulty.” The graceful phantom continued. “Our three races have four peak humans of the universe, while the humans now have none. Exterminating them… won’t be difficult! As long as we eliminate their strongest few!”
“Right.”
“So how do we proceed?”
“Of course, we must act quickly, faster than they can react. Especially since the other forces in the original universe might not have heard the news yet. And they are scattered throughout the original universe, far from here. But we are just near the humans! We can act the fastest!”
“Good.”
…
The Insect race, the Ya race, and the Mechanical race, as supreme races, were no ordinary beings. Their efficiency was naturally extremely high.
They quickly made a decision.
And on the same day, they began to act!
