Luo Feng stared at the two fragments of the Qiansi Map floating in the distance, then at the 81 black vines swaying and emanating endless pressure, gritting his teeth in hatred: "Even if I unleash My Being as the Universe, coupled with the Golden Kingdom and the Cold Mist Realm, I might only be able to suppress the Dream Ancestor Domain. That Mo Yu Vine could still trap me…"
One-on-one.
Even if the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf possessed the "Dream Ancestor Domain," he would dare to fight for it. But the 'Mo Yu Vine'... the Dream Ancestor Domain—when these two supreme treasures cooperate, they truly leave him helpless.
"Luo Feng, let's go. Seize the other Qiansi Map fragments!" The Lord of the Ice Peak was decisive, immediately giving up upon realizing they couldn't acquire them.
"Mm." Luo Feng nodded, but cast a lingering, unwilling glance at the distant Qiansi Map fragments before transforming into a streak of light and flying away.
"Hahahaha…"
The black Heavenly Wolf soared toward the two Qiansi Map fragments, feeling immensely satisfied. "Human Luo Feng, hah, you humans actually dare to contend with my Demon Race? Truly laughable. Hmph, you were so arrogant when your strength was weak back then; even now that you are a Universe Master, you still can't defeat me."
"Heavenly Wolf, there are Qiansi Map fragments further out. I'm heading over," the Lord of the transmitted telepathically.
"Mm, the other Qiansi Map fragments are scattered individually, and most are not very large; they aren't worth us joining forces for. Let's separate for now and each try to seize fragments; we might acquire more," the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf quickly agreed.
Luo Feng and the Lord of the Ice Peak also soon separated, heading off to vie for the Qiansi Map fragments individually.
After all, there were only about 21 Universe Masters in total. The number of Qiansi Map fragments was greater than the number of Universe Masters. If two Universe Masters acted together… while the certainty of acquiring a fragment would greatly increase, they would also miss out on many opportunities for contention. Unless, like the situation just now, seizing one fragment was equivalent to gaining six or seven smaller ones, there would be no need to join forces.
"That one is mine."
"Ice Peak, yield this one to me."
"Hahahaha, Lord of the Nine Nethers, you still dare to compete? Without a domain-type supreme treasure, how can you evade us?"
The contention was incredibly fierce.
In this layered space of the banquet, nearly a hundred Universe Masters from the nine major powers were unleashing their might—some relying on inherently powerful strength, like the Lord of the Ice Peak and the Lord of the Zi Demon, while others carried extremely powerful supreme treasures, like the Lord of the, the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf, and the Lord of the Ming Lian… All sides brought out their respective means.
"My Being as the Universe."
During the struggle for the Qiansi Map fragments, Luo Feng deployed 'My Being as the Universe' twice, giving it his absolute all. Yet, even after unleashing it twice, he only managed to secure a fragment once. This illustrated the intensity of the competition.
As the Universe Masters of the nine major powers unleashed their might and frantically fought over the Qiansi Map fragments, far away in the void, the giant fiery hand of the Black Cosmos Creator seized the black divine wood.
"The marvel is obtained."
The Black Cosmos Creator's voice was deep and powerful. His fiery head tilted slightly, looking towards the chaotic battle in the distant void. Previously, because the 'Lord of the Yuan Ao' was constantly fleeing, the Black Cosmos Creator had been in pursuit… causing the Lord of the Yuan Ao's detonation point to be far from the Qiansi Map fragments.
"I initially expected to have to pay a price to obtain the marvel this time. I was even prepared to offer some supreme treasures to these nine major powers. I never expected to acquire the marvel so easily now," the Black Cosmos Creator swept his gaze around.
In a distant section of the void, a massive spatial shard was flying rapidly, colliding with a huge shield and causing the shield to tumble wildly.
Shield!
Round Hammer!
Holy Grail!
Gray Armor!
Supreme treasures were scattering and flying in all directions. The destructive power of the Black Cosmos Creator's previous self-detonation was too terrifying; even his own World Ring had shattered, causing some ordinary material items to be directly annihilated into nothingness. Only the more precious supreme treasures could survive that impact.
The numerous supreme treasures flew in various directions, and due to countless high-speed impacts from spatial shards, they were scattered everywhere.
"The marvel is secured; my objective has been achieved," the Black Cosmos Creator gazed at the distant scene of chaos. "These supreme treasures are spread out in all directions. Even if I went to seize them, the mere flight would take a long time, and I could at most obtain one or two. For me, having a protective or even strong supreme treasure and an offensive marvel—the divine wood—is already sufficient. As for the treasures scattered everywhere, let them fight hard to claim them after they've flown for a while."
"Let's go!"
Swish!
That golden fiery figure rapidly broke through the void and vanished into the endless spatial turbulence.
The Qiansi Map fragments were finite. The nearly one hundred Universe Masters from the nine major powers of the Original Universe fought desperately for them. In mere moments, they were all claimed. Those who were powerful and possessed formidable supreme treasures, like the Lord of the Zi Demon and the 'Lord of the Golden Horn,' naturally gained a significant advantage. Likewise, Luo Feng, who commanded the mastery of time and space, gained a small benefit.
Luo Feng himself didn't acquire many—only two fragments. However, he used his 'Golden Kingdom' to assist the Lord of the Ice Peak, whose strength was already exceptional. Since the Golden Kingdom had a vast range, no matter where the Lord of the Ice Peak fought, the aid of the Golden Kingdom ensured his invincibility.
"Haha, our haul this time is considerable," the Lord of the Ice Peak transmitted. "But I must thank Luo Feng. With the assistance of your Golden Kingdom, combined with my top-tier domain-type supreme treasure and my own strength… the quantity I seized is nearly the same as that of the Lord of the Zi Demon—a full five fragments. Adding your two, our Human Race has secured a total of seven this time. Quite good. It's a pity that the two Qiansi Map fragments the Demon Race acquired were quite large; that's truly regrettable."
This time, the nine factions obtained varying amounts.
The most successful was the Star Beast Alliance, which secured a full 10 fragments!
The least successful was the Nine Regions Alliance, which obtained only 3 fragments!
Of course, this couldn't be judged strictly—
Because the Qiansi Map fragments varied in size; perhaps one large piece was equivalent to several smaller ones. Just like the Demon Race's Lord of the Heavenly Wolf and Lord of the, who together only had five fragments, but if their pieces were combined, their total area might not be smaller than that of the Star Beast Alliance.
"Star Beast Alliance has the Lord of the Golden Horn."
"Prison Race has the Lord of the Zi Demon."
"Humans have the Lord of the Ice Peak aided by that golden light."
"The Demon Race surprisingly brought two powerful supreme treasures of the Dream Ancestor Demon. Those four factions secured more than half the total; each likely has around one-sixth!"
The Universe Masters possessed keen awareness of the battlefield's control and knew precisely how much each side had acquired.
This engagement also made all parties realize Luo Feng of the Human Race's capabilities.
"That endless golden light controls time and space. Its mastery over a region of spacetime is even stronger than that of a Universe Master! And that endless golden light seems to emanate from those silver four-winged artifacts. This wing treasure… perhaps its might is slightly less than a top-tier domain-type supreme treasure, but the fact that it can control time and space is truly astonishing. In terms of value, it is entirely comparable to a top-tier domain-type supreme treasure."
"Hmph, without that golden light spacetime domain, how could the Lord of the Ice Peak have acquired so many Qiansi Map fragments?"
Envy flared.
The Lord of the Heavenly Wolf and some other Universe Masters were envious but utterly helpless. Luo Feng had annihilated over 6,000 Universe Venerables from the three major alliances, and in the end, nothing came of it.
"The Guest of Mount Sitting is truly biased! To me, he only gave the 'Primal Soul' and the 'Yan God Halberd,' and the 'Jie Armor' was only loaned for use, yet he still gave all this to Luo Feng upon his emergence," the Emperor Yan, watching from afar, seethed with resentment. "The Guest of Mount Sitting even gave Luo Feng the ultimate supreme treasure, the Star Tower. I knew about the Jie Armor and the Star Tower, but… but, this wing treasure that controls time and space is so rare and unique—only the Guest of Mount Sitting could produce it. And he gave it to Luo Feng! This is too biased. Just wait, wait. Even if my gains are fewer than yours, I will crush you underfoot, and one day, I will surpass the Primal Ancestor and stomp the Guest of Mount Sitting underfoot too! Across the universe, traversing the sea of chaos, only I shall reign supreme!"
The Emperor Yan's furious resentment filled his heart.
"There are supreme treasures over there."
"It's the aftermath of the Lord of the Jing Ao's self-detonation."
"The Black Cosmos Creator actually left?"
"Quick, to the supreme treasures!"
For an ultimate expert, a lone wanderer with no ties, having a protective or even strong supreme treasure and a marvel divine wood—perhaps for the Black Cosmos Creator, only an 'ultimate supreme treasure' could attract him now. The treasures left behind by the demise of the Lord of the Yuan Ao were, in fact, inconsequential to the Black Cosmos Creator.
It was much like the Guest of Mount Sitting directly gifting vast amounts of treasure to his disciples.
Why?
Because he had enough for himself, and being unattached, he naturally didn't need more. Excess wealth would just sit in a treasury, unseen for eternity.
Conversely, figures like the Primordial Beast Ancestor and the Giant Axe Creator, burdened by responsibility to their races, would value other peak supreme treasures more.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Several Universe Masters rapidly flew toward different directions. The treasures left by the fallen Lord of the Yuan Ao were numerous. Because the divine body's self-detonation was so immense, the supreme treasures were blasted toward different locations, and the distances were now extremely vast. Therefore, the Universe Masters could only choose one target each.
"Holy Grail!" Luo Feng instantly locked onto that chalice.
That chalice, originally named the Sand Cup, also known as the Flame Sand Cup, was one of the Lord of the Yuan Ao's top-tier domain-type supreme treasures. It was this Sand Cup that was used to release the flame domain earlier.
"That armor, shield, warhammer, etc., are useless to me. I am currently deploying the Golden Kingdom. If it is complemented by a top-tier domain-type supreme treasure, combined with my miniature universe… even a peak domain-type supreme treasure could likely be suppressed," Luo Feng was determined to obtain it. At this moment, the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf in another direction was also rushing over rapidly.
Rumble! The Lord of the Heavenly Wolf, the Lord of the Golden Horn, the Lord of the Ming Lian, and others possessing peak domain-type supreme treasures unleashed their powers, engaging in continuous long-range clashes. However, Luo Feng's endless golden light covered the area entirely, deliberately avoiding direct confrontation with them. The other Universe Masters couldn't control time and space, couldn't deploy domains, and couldn't even discern the locations of some distant treasures.
"That's mine," the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf sped over.
"It's mine."
Luo Feng also flew rapidly.
Both attempted to manipulate the 'Flame Sand Cup' toward themselves from a distance, but the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf's peak domain-type supreme treasure was clearly a notch stronger.
Swish! Swish!
Luo Feng and the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf closed in.
When the distance to the Sand Cup was about one hundred million kilometers, and only he and the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf remained within that range, a sharp light flashed in Luo Feng's eyes: "The treasure contention is about to conclude; this Sand Cup must be obtained! I am the Universe!" Because the divine power from his Golden Horned Beast God Body was constantly replenishing his energy, his true body remained at peak condition.
"Boom!" The endless void instantly turned dim.
Chaos airflow permeated the area.
Within this miniature universe spanning 100 million kilometers in diameter, there were only two living beings—Luo Feng and the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf.
"Is that the shrunken Chaos World?" The Lord of the Heavenly Wolf was startled. This operation had been quite smooth for him, and he had acquired many Qiansi Map fragments. Obtaining this top-tier domain-type supreme treasure would make it perfect. But upon seeing the endless chaos airflow, he knew it was Luo Feng's ultimate secret technique.
"Hahahaha, Human Luo Feng, you think you can contend with me?" The black Heavenly Wolf flew within the endless chaotic airflow, yet his voice caused the surrounding chaos particles to shatter away.
