At the core of the Free Alliance, over 400 powerful beings gathered. The Master of Shihua Island spoke directly, “The humans’ response should be known to every Lord of the Universe. Even those few who might not have known before, surely have understood now after discussing with other Lords of the Universe! Since this is the case, how should we decide? Let everyone speak!”
“The human race is too arrogant, not even considering the Free Alliance worthy of respect! Now, across the Primeval Universe, our Free Alliance is the strongest! Without our support, they won’t be able to stand firm in the Primeval Universe!”
“What do humans have to rely on to dare to be so arrogant? They haven’t left themselves any room for retreat!”
“They are simply asking for death!”
Immediately, some hot-tempered Lords of the Universe roared in anger.
Since the formation of the Free Alliance, they had felt their status in the ‘Primeval Universe’ had changed. They were no longer the weak and scattered races of the past, but a powerful alliance. They firmly believed the humans would certainly come begging to them! Confidently expecting this, the humans’ response naturally enraged them all.
As some shouted loudly, other Lords of the Universe quietly conversed among themselves.
“Yeyan, what does your faction think?”
“What do we think? Truthfully, we’ve been stuck at the level of Lords of the Universe for a very long time. Becoming a Sovereign of the Universe is what we urgently need now. As for reaching the peak of Sovereigns of the Universe, that’s still far from us… The one in our entire Free Alliance who most desires to reach that peak is the Master of Shihua Island! For us, the conditions offered by the humans… are sufficient.”
“I think the same way too, but Shihua has great influence. He will never agree easily.”
“Right.”
“There are also some who were once oppressed by the top clans, and now their confidence has exploded. They consider themselves mighty now and stand firmly on the side of the Master of Shihua Island.”
…
The Master of Shihua Island sat quietly, watching the debate unfold.
His gaze swept across the dense crowd of over 400 Lords of the Universe: “Although the Free Alliance is vast, precisely because it is too vast, and some factions still harbor deep enmity. It is only because of the pressure from the two major factions this time that we have united… In reality, the number and complexity of internal factions are immense…”
“These factions vary—some are radical and overly confident!”
“Some are timid, still looking up to the top clans as before, unwilling to offend them easily.”
“Some are steady.”
“Some are cunning…”
The Master of Shihua Island mused inwardly, “To make them all follow me is difficult. I must find a way to make them all stand by my side on this issue. It is essential to force the humans to hand over the information regarding the ultimate Sovereign of the Universe cultivation.”
…
The Lords of the Universe have extremely long lifespans, and this matter is of utmost importance. The Free Alliance has many internal factions, especially some that are already at odds with each other. Despite the Master of Shihua Island’s efforts, the debates continued for half a month without any side managing to convince the others.
“There are many with ambitions among these Lords of the Universe,” the Master of Shihua Island rarely spoke, observing quietly, “Such a powerful force as the Free Alliance must have many who desire to control it.”
Just like the Northern Border Alliance.
The Alliance Leader is merely a figurehead without real power, while the true authority lies with the Masters of the Milky Way, Black Lotus, and Liulan Star.
Now, within the Free Alliance, those with ambitions clearly also intended to sideline the Master of Shihua Island, turning him into a mere figurehead. Naturally, the Master of Shihua Island was unwilling to let go of his power.
Regarding this decision…
The internal disputes reflected the Free Alliance’s factional divisions and the underlying threat of power struggles, which were alarmingly severe.
…
At the summit of the Divine Star Mountain, there was an isolated peak known as the Ancestral Mountain.
On the Ancestral Mountain.
“Rumble~~~~” The surrounding space-time changed, thick lightning snakes surged, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
A faintly visible, massive, and winding creature appeared on the Ancestral Mountain.
“Humans! What great ambition they have!” the Starry Sky Ancestor spoke in a deep and angry voice.
“Ancestor, what should our decision be?”
“Ancestor, let the human faction know the might of our Starry Sky Beast Alliance. Since they are unwilling to hand it over… we should find ways to force them to give it to us!”
Around him, numerous Lords of the Universe gathered, each visibly furious.
The humans dared to reply in such a manner!
It’s simply asking for death!
“Humans have produced beings like Yuanzu, and they are naturally proud by nature. Now their race’s Luo Feng has obtained the legacy of the Duandonghe lineage, how could he not harbor great ambitions?” the Starry Sky Ancestor said slowly. “Would they easily hand over the cultivation methods for their strongest warriors? I had thought they would compromise under extreme pressure.”
“But they still refused to hand it over!” the Starry Sky Ancestor was also furious.
He had thought that with his somewhat amicable relationship with Luo Feng and Luo Feng’s current status, which gave him significant influence in the human hierarchy, and with his personal visit to negotiate with Luo Feng… giving the humans enough face, he had thought the humans might share the experience and methods of cultivating to the peak of Sovereign of the Universe.
But the reality was, the humans still refused to hand it over! They were only willing to provide the ancient civilization’s guidance on how to become a Sovereign of the Universe.
“Ancestor, speak up, what should we do?”
“Ancestor, we cannot let the humans have an easy time.”
“Ancestor…”
One by one, the Starry Sky Beasts roared in anger. The Starry Sky Beasts were mostly naturally bloodthirsty and extremely proud. They had made their demands, but the humans did not comply, only offering partial concessions… naturally making them furious and dissatisfied.
“Don’t rush, there’s no need to decide yet. Given the human’s nature, even if the allied forces win, they might retreat to the Original Universe and still refuse to hand over the legacy,” the Starry Sky Ancestor said slowly. “We will wait, wait for the opportunity… wait until the humans are in true desperation, I don’t believe they won’t panic! If at the last moment, they still refuse to agree to our demands… then we will join the allied forces at the last moment, making their defeat even more devastating!”
“Yes.”
“Humans, humans.”
One by one, the Starry Sky Beasts roared. Among them, some might have personal friendships with other races’ Lords of the Universe, but when it came to the interests of their entire race, they unhesitatingly stood on their own race’s side! Just like Luo Feng, who had many friends, yet still stood firmly on the human race’s side at this moment.
The survival and warfare of races… are indeed this cruel.
…
The human race had given responses to the Free Alliance, the Divine Ancestor Church, the Starry Sky Beast Alliance, and the lone Sovereigns.
No one could be completely satisfied with the responses.
…
In human territory, within the Primeval Secret Realm.
“Our response, they must have some who are very dissatisfied. However, they must face a decision… choosing the allied forces, even if they win the war, they might gain nothing. Choosing us, even if they lose the war, they can still obtain partial legacy information.” Luo Feng stood in the sky above the Thousand-Treasure River, with the Dark Lord beside him.
The Dark Lord nodded, “Yes, so the situation shouldn’t be too bad. I estimate some powers will still side with us.”
“Mm.” Luo Feng nodded, “Even if our human race temporarily develops more slowly, it won’t take long before we rise again and become powerful.”
“Exactly.” The Chaos City Lord was also filled with confidence.
“Go!”
Luo Feng waved his hand, and immediately a nine-story pagoda flew out from his palm, quickly flying to the center of the Thousand-Treasure River in the distance.
“Grow, grow, grow!” Luo Feng immediately controlled the Star Pagoda.
Boom~~~ The Star Pagoda began to rapidly expand, increasing in height continuously—hundreds of millions of kilometers, one billion kilometers, ten billion kilometers. When the edge of the Star Pagoda finally approached Luo Feng’s palace in the distance, the Star Pagoda finally stopped expanding.
“Let’s start setting up.” Luo Feng said.
“Go, I also want to see this scene. It would be a pity not to witness such a spectacular sight.” the Dark Lord smiled.
Luo Feng smiled, “Let’s go!”
With a single step.
They flew directly to the edge of the base of the magnificent Star Pagoda, which was close to Luo Feng’s palace. The two entered the palace and soon arrived at a quiet, vast secret chamber inside. In the dark and silent chamber, one wall had a massive, exquisite carving, about one hundred thousand kilometers high. After all, these palaces were built for the Lords of the Universe to reside in, so naturally, the palaces themselves were incredibly grand. The secret chambers used for cultivation were naturally large enough… a wall hundreds of thousands of kilometers high was perfectly normal.
The seemingly normal, exquisite carving was, in fact, a channel entrance.
“The fixed channel for the divine nation’s teleportation has already been established.” Luo Feng pointed at the carving on the wall, “This is one of the entrances, directly connected to my divine nation.”
“Go!”
Luo Feng took a step forward and touched the wall. The wall rippled slightly, and Luo Feng entered it entirely. The Dark Lord followed closely behind.
The Star Pagoda had a Mosha clone presiding, so it could be easily controlled without any concerns.
…
The boundless expanse of the divine nation.
“Boom~~~” The endless Dark Sea surged with immense power. Above the Dark Sea, a screen hovered midair, from which two figures emerged—Luo Feng and the Dark Lord.
“This is your divine nation?” the Dark Lord looked around, sighing in admiration, “Not bad.”
Luo Feng nodded with a smile.
His divine nation had already reached its limit! Taking another step further… would be a miniature universe. Such a powerful divine nation, even a Sovereign of the Universe would dare not enter. Therefore, at Luo Feng’s current level… there was no need to hide his divine nation at all.
“Your boundless Youhai divine body…” The Dark Lord gazed down at the vast Youhai, his eyes filled with a hint of envy. “It’s incredible. With such a divine body, your divine power is truly inexhaustible.”
“Just luck.” Luo Feng smiled.
First, he had taken over the Golden-Horned Giant Beast.
Second, he had chosen the ‘blood’ path from the very beginning, which was the limit the Golden-Horned Giant Beast could endure. Had it exceeded that limit, it would have been impossible for it to develop at all.
Third, he possessed the “Nine Calamities Secret Manual,” enabling him to continuously elevate the bloodline level of his originally mediocre potential Blood Sea. This allowed his potential to rise from that of a prince-level to the level of the Nine Yōu Sovereign.
“This kind of luck isn’t something you can just wish for.” The Dark Lord shook his head lightly.
Luo Feng smiled, “Then I’ll begin.”
He gazed toward the boundless Nethersea, his consciousness beginning to manipulate it. Instantly, the endless waters of the Nethersea surged violently. The seawater coiled like a dragon, soaring directly into the screen, thundering along the entrance of the passage. The raging waters of the Nethersea rushed wildly through the channel toward the other end. Simultaneously, within Luo Feng’s secluded cultivation chamber in the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, the wall of the statue also began gushing forth vast quantities of Nethersea water…
