In a quiet, magnificent hall within an independent plane of the Virtual Universe, one side featured four stone chairs while the other had six.
Sitting on the four stone chairs were Citylord Hun, Luo Feng, Lord of Darkness, and Penggong. On the six stone chairs sat the six representatives of the Free Alliance… who also represented the six major factions.
“It won’t do for us Free Alliance to assist without compensation,” said Shihua Island Lord, the last of the six representatives to speak. “We must first receive partial inheritance information, which we will review to confirm that your human race isn’t deceiving the Free Alliance. Only then will we agree to join your human faction and help you fight against the allied forces.”
“Rest assured, Free Alliance,” Citylord Hun nodded. “Right now, I can provide each of you with partial inheritance information.”
“Good.”
“Good.”
Besides the six representatives seated inside the hall, over 400 other Cosmic Lords of the Free Alliance waited outside. They could all hear the negotiations. Upon hearing that inheritance information would be provided, they naturally became filled with anticipation and excitement.
“Then we shall begin,” Citylord Hun smiled. “You all must carefully observe and study.”
Then—
via the Virtual Universe system, each of the over 400 Cosmic Lords received an email containing a vast amount of information. The previously excited and chatty Cosmic Lords all fell silent, engrossed in studying the inheritance information. Even Shihua Island Lord curiously took a look. Although he had become the strongest being in the cosmos, his breakthrough had been vague and instinctive, lacking systematic experience.
Luo Feng, Citylord Hun, Lord of Darkness, and Penggong exchanged glances and nodded slightly.
They were all filled with confidence.
Especially Luo Feng!
Because this inheritance information was his carefully prepared work. Although it had been significantly simplified, omitting many crucial points, it was still, after a bit of organization, bound to leave every Cosmic Lord astonished. It was a revolutionary form of inheritance information that would make the Cosmic Lords of the Free Alliance crave even more, ensuring they would support the human faction.
“There’s a lot of information. Even through the Virtual Universe, transmitting it at the fastest possible speed, even Cosmic Lords will need some time to process it all,” Luo Feng transmitted mentally.
“Then we’ll wait a little longer,” Citylord Hun chuckled. “We’re all inside the Star Tower now; the allied forces can’t do anything to us… waiting a bit longer won’t cause any issues.”
“Once the Free Alliance and we join forces, we’ll have it easy,” Penggong smiled.
“Right,” Lord of Darkness nodded slightly.
The human faction waited…
…
Time passed minute by minute.
In a void, a nine-story pagoda towered majestically. Around it were 11 grand palace treasures from the allied forces and six palace treasures from the Free Alliance.
“Whoosh!”
A streak of light tore through the void.
“Hmm?”
This immediately drew the attention of both the human faction and the allied forces, who were waiting for the Free Alliance’s final decision. The streak of light was mighty and swift, far exceeding the speed of light. It directly rushed into this void and soon stopped. It was an unusual treasure shaped like an eight-sided altar.
This unusual treasure was none other than the famous “Ancestor God Altar.”
The Ancestor God Altar was a treasure granted by the Primordial Universe to the Ancestor God Church. Although not a supreme treasure, it lacked offensive capabilities. However, in terms of pure defensive capability, it was no less than a supreme treasure. As a faction truly favored by the Primordial Universe, the Ancestor God Church indeed had many unique advantages.
“Chaos, we’ve arrived.”
“We’ve arrived.”
“Milky Way, we’ve arrived.”
“We arrived a little late. Upon receiving your humans’ message, we immediately gathered and have now arrived.”
A series of messages were transmitted through the Virtual Universe.
“Haha, honored guests from the Ancestor God Church, you’re not late at all! The battle hasn’t truly begun yet… We’re all inside the Star Tower now. Some of you from the Ancestor God Church can also enter the Star Tower, which will facilitate better coordination.”
“Good.”
“No problem. Some of our Cosmic Lords from the Ancestor God Church will now head to the Star Tower.”
In the void, the Ancestor God Altar flew steadily toward the Star Tower.
Shortly after, the two came very close to each other.
The side door of the Star Tower opened, as did the side door of the Ancestor God Altar. Then, a black warship flew out from the Ancestor God Altar and directly entered the Star Tower.
Inside the tower.
“Citylord Hun, Lord Milky Way, Lord of Darkness, Lord Penggong, Lord Longxing…” the Ancestor God Church members who joined the Star Tower all appeared very enthusiastic.
The human faction naturally welcomed them warmly.
Both sides seemed very happy, but…
“That Ancestor God Church is really cunning,” Penggong’s face bore a smile, but mentally transmitted to Luo Feng, Citylord Hun, and the others, “They’ve long received the partial inheritance information we provided and have long agreed to join our side. Previously, we sent messages to both the Free Alliance and the Ancestor God Church at the same time. All 400+ Cosmic Lords of the Free Alliance arrived, but they only sent dozens of Cosmic Lords and deliberately delayed their arrival.”
“Intentional delay is normal! Although the Ancestor God Church previously claimed to be the largest force, whether it’s the newly formed Free Alliance or the allied forces, our human faction is now stronger than them,” Luo Feng mentally sneered. “So of course, they wanted to take their time! If our human race had been directly attacked and collapsed without even holding out for a moment… the Ancestor God Church would naturally prefer to give up rather than take risks. But if we could withstand the initial onslaught… they would then join us according to the original plan.”
“It’s not necessarily wrong,” Citylord Hun mentally replied. “After all, they’re helping us but don’t want to be ravaged or even destroyed. I asked them to transfer some of their Cosmic Lords to the Star Tower… and they immediately agreed, which shows some sincerity.”
“Agreed? Hmph, just look at who came in! Lord Jiuyou, Lord Luocan, Lord Fengtian… yes, they’re all powerful. But they’re all clones! Those who came to the Star Tower are all clones,” Penggong was indeed somewhat dissatisfied.
The Ancestor God Church only had a few members with clones; most had only their original bodies.
“Entering the Star Tower means their fate is under our control,” Citylord Hun calmly said. “It’s already good enough that they sent a group of Cosmic Lords to show sincerity. Do you expect them to send Cosmic Lords without clones? Impossible! After all, even these clone divine bodies with their powerful divine powers and treasures, the Ancestor God Church wouldn’t easily give them up unless absolutely necessary.”
…
The Free Alliance and the Ancestor God Church arrived one after the other.
The Ancestor God Church directly joined, while the 400+ Cosmic Lords of the Free Alliance were all viewing the inheritance information.
Time passed minute by minute.
“Why hasn’t there been any movement yet?”
“Are we just going to wait here?”
“Don’t be impatient,” a hoary voice mentally transmitted to the other Cosmic Sovereigns. “The Free Alliance had just made their decision when we immediately started our actions. They probably hadn’t even received the inheritance information from the human race yet. This time, they must first view the inheritance information before deciding whether to join. Now they’re likely studying the inheritance information… We absolutely cannot act rashly. If we attack prematurely, it will surely provoke the Free Alliance’s anger, possibly pushing them directly to the other side!”
“What? Do you actually think the Free Alliance still has a chance to join us?”
“The chance is slim. However, if we attack now, the Free Alliance will definitely support the humans, and this battle will be a failure. If we delay our attack… there might be a turn of events. Let’s wait and see.”
The allied forces carefully considered.
But no matter how much they deliberated, they realized… if the Free Alliance and the human faction truly joined forces, their chances of victory would be extremely slim.
…
The allied forces were waiting, and so were the humans.
In the void…
Silence reigned.
Eleven grand palace treasures of the allied forces, six palace treasures of the Free Alliance, the Ancestor God Altar of the Ancestor God Church, and the humans’ Star Tower were gathered here. The number of Cosmic Lords gathered here was around a thousand… and the number of Cosmic Sovereigns exceeded ten… one could say that over 90% of the Primordial Universe’s top combat forces were gathered here!
Each of them had the power to destroy a space-time with a mere flip of their hand!
Each of them could easily establish a powerful race!
And now they were gathered here. This battle would affect the cosmic power structure of the Primordial Universe for eons to come.
“I’ve finished viewing.”
“I’ve finished viewing.”
“I’ve also finished viewing.”
The six palace treasures of the Free Alliance approached each other, their divine powers surging, transmitting messages through divine power rather than the Virtual Universe.
“Now, all Cosmic Lords of the Free Alliance have finished viewing the inheritance information. Everyone, share your thoughts… how did you find this inheritance information?” a slightly cold voice spread out.
“It’s okay.”
“It’s somewhat acceptable.”
“It does contain some information.”
“It’s average.”
“This is the inheritance information on how the Donghe Branch became the strongest beings in the cosmos? It’s too brief?”
“Too average.”
Various voices spread out, with over 400 Cosmic Lords exchanging messages. Strangely, although the over 400 Cosmic Lords communicated with each other via divine power, none of them exchanged messages with Shihua Island Lord.
“Everyone, make your decision,” the slightly cold voice continued. “Will you choose to join the human faction or support me?”
“Lord Guangxing, this is obvious! I support you!”
“I support you too.”
“Haha, everyone knows what to choose. Lord Guangxing, you should be the leader of the Free Alliance. Of course, you must also keep your promise.”
“Lord Guangxing… keep your promise, and we will naturally support you.”
“Support.”
Various voices, all Cosmic Lords without exception.
“Good, then we’ll proceed with our originally planned second option!” Lord Guangxing mentally transmitted. “We’ll continue to make demands to the humans, asking for more detailed and abundant inheritance information… if the information they provide exceeds what I’ve given you all, then we’ll continue to join the human faction. But if what they provide is worse than what I’ve given you all! Then the human faction isn’t worth our support.”
