"I've always lacked a suitable ultimate treasure, always lacked one!" Founder of Giant Axe stood in the void, holding his divine axe, gazing into the distance. "It is precisely because I didn't possess an ultimate treasure that I kept a low profile and endured, fearing that excessive brilliance would invite disaster upon our human race. Primogenitor showed me great kindness; his permanent〖suppression〗was only to ensure I would lead the human race well. Third True Lord, Sixth True Lord, do you two know... what angers me the most?"

The eyes of Founder of Giant Axe suddenly blazed, two substantial beams of light slicing across the sky, followed by a roar of fury: "It is the attempt to extinguish my human race!"

"Extinguish the race! Extinguish the race!"

"Just your Divine Eye race dares to arrogantly proclaim extinguishing my human race?"

"When Primogenitor was here, did you even dare utter a sound?"

"Today, I will let you know! The consequences of attempting to destroy my human race!" Founder of Giant Axe's voice shook the heavens as he simultaneously held his divine axe aloft and roared, "The Fifteenth!!!"

"Go quickly!"

"Go!"

The Third True Lord and the Sixth True Lord were both shocked and enraged, yet they couldn't spare a thought for anything else and immediately began to flee.

One axe strike fell...

Boundless darkness descended, like a giant axe phantom in a virtual space emitting dazzling light. Following this radiant, glowing giant axe phantom, the "Divine Axe merged, silently, cleaving towards the Third True Lord and the Sixth True Lord.

"Boom!"

Countless stars obstructing the path were instantly shattered.

"Quick! Stars, quickly stop him."

The Sixth True Lord grew frantic, while the Third True Lord angrily declared: "His attack can shatter even the fusion of the three ultimate treasures under the Eternal True God. How can my domain-type ultimate treasure possibly trap him? It barely affects his speed. Hurry, let's escape first."

"You cannot escape!"

That giant axe tore through the void at high speed, relentlessly pursuing.

Its velocity surged by a thousand times the speed of light, then ten thousand times the speed of light—the ascent was extremely rapid. Moreover, the phantom of the giant axe surrounded the flying axe, rampaging and sweeping away all the incoming myriad stars, which were instantly cleaved apart. The magnificent domain-type ultimate treasure could barely restrict Founder of Giant Axe.

"Quick, quick, quick."

A palace flew at great speed.

That palace was merely a peak ultimate treasure, yet Founder of Giant Axe cleared the path with one ultimate treasure, the Divine Axe, combined with his own speed—how fast must he be?

"He's closing in."

"Not good."

Traveling at over a hundred thousand times the speed of light, Founder of Giant Axe caught up in the blink of an eye.

"Hiding inside the palace? Then be sealed by me." Founder of Giant Axe stretched out his right hand, and it suddenly grew massive, transforming into a hand spanning a million kilometers. Each of the five fingers was wreathed in phantom axe shadows, causing the area around the palm to sink into a strange darkness.

"We separate."

"Hiding inside the palace treasure is useless for resistance. Even an Eternal True God cannot withstand it. Once this peak palace treasure is seized, we inside will have no means to resist and will likely be thrown into a〖suppression〗type palace and〖suppressed〗by him."

"Biyan, your strength is insufficient to face him. Quickly enter my world."

"Fine."

If the opponent possessed a〖suppression〗type treasure and was vastly superior in strength, then continuous defensive tactics were out of the question.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

That palace vanished into thin air.

A man bathed in purple light stood in the void, clad in purple armor, glaring at Founder of Giant Axe and shouting angrily: "Giant Axe, we are fleeing, yet you pursue relentlessly? If it were only the Sixth True Lord, he might indeed face annihilation before you. But I, Xingchen [Star/Starry], even if inferior to you, am not in danger of falling."

"Hand over three ultimate treasures of the peak palace level, and the enmity between your Divine Eye race and us humans will be settled!" Founder of Giant Axe's voice was rough. "Otherwise, my axe techniques truly lack suitable opponents for tempering and improvement."

The Third True Lord, encased in purple armor, wore a grim expression and remained silent for a long time.

"Fine! My Divine Eye race respects you, so we shall give you three treasures." Third True Lord stated. "One peak domain-type ultimate treasure, one peak palace-type ultimate treasure, and one peak soul illusion-type ultimate treasure."

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three streams of light flew directly towards Founder of Giant Axe.

Founder of Giant Axe reached out, grasped the three treasures, glanced at them, and put them away.

"Swish!" The Third True Lord immediately transformed into a streak of light and sped away quickly.

The Golden Brilliance Demon God in the distance, along with Guest-by-the-Mountain and Luo Feng inside the green stone peak, were somewhat stunned.

The Divine Eye race, whose prestige towered to the heavens.

Yet, they hadn't expected Founder of Giant Axe to be so terrifyingly strong, forcing the two True Lords of the Divine Eye race to bow their heads, preferring to surrender three peak-grade ultimate treasures.

"Giant Axe, congratulations! Humanity in the original universe is truly formidable. Primogenitor was mighty, and Giant Axe, you are mighty too, haha. With an ultimate treasure in hand, Giant Axe, your strength has reached such heights." A crisp, childlike voice emanated from the Golden Brilliance Demon God.

"Haha, Golden Brilliance, please refrain from leaking this news for now," Founder of Giant Axe called out from afar.

"Not leaking? Tsk tsk. The Divine Eye race suffered a great loss. If the news isn't leaked, they probably won't actively spread it outside; they probably hope other factions suffer losses too. Giant Axe, you are truly cunning. Fine, I absolutely will not spread it." Golden Brilliance Demon God let out a half-crisp laugh.

"Guest-by-the-Mountain, please also refrain from leaking this news."

Founder of Giant Axe turned his gaze toward another distant direction.

"Naturally," Guest-by-the-Mountain's voice also traveled across.

Founder of Giant Axe nodded slightly, and then his figure blurred, transforming into a giant axe as he rapidly departed through the void.

The Golden Brilliance Demon God also bid farewell to Guest-by-the-Mountain and left, while the green stone peak flew towards the exit of the abyss.

In the abyss.

The green stone peak was advancing rapidly.

"Teacher," Luo Feng still felt excitement surging within him, yet there was also confusion. He first poured wine for Guest-by-the-Mountain. "Our human race's Founder of Giant Axe is mighty, truly mighty enough to kill other Universe Masters?"

"Haha, of course he can!" Guest-by-the-Mountain sat there, holding his wine cup, and smiled. "Back then, Primogenitor traversed the Sea of Universe, and no one—not the Three Great Reincarnation Eras, nor the Two Great Sacred Land Universes—dared to provoke him. Even other Universe Masters would immediately flee upon seeing him from afar! Tell me, if he were merely holding an advantage, would other Universe Masters fear him to this extent?"

Luo Feng suddenly realized.

Yes, if his life wasn't in danger, Primogenitor wouldn't have instilled such terror in other Universe Masters.

"Giant Axe's strength is still some distance from that of Primogenitor back then, but he is already very close," Guest-by-the-Mountain sighed sentimentally.

"Can Founder of Giant Axe kill the Third True Lord?" Luo Feng pressed.

"No," Guest-by-the-Mountain stated directly. "The Third True Lord possesses two ultimate treasures, placing his strength second among the Seven True Lords. Giant Axe can suppress and sweep over the Third True Lord, but cannot kill him! The Sixth True Lord is weaker, possessing only one soul-attack-type ultimate treasure. Facing Giant Axe, he is highly likely to be killed."

"Since he cannot be killed, why did the Third True Lord bow his head?" Luo Feng continued to question.

"Haha," Guest-by-the-Mountain laughed heartily. "Of course, he had to bow his head. Giant Axe had hidden his strength until now; he had never truly unleashed it. With strength this terrifying before any real combat, and now that he has erupted, he will surely erupt again and again in future battles with other experts. To achieve this much without prior high-level combat and tempering, once he clashes with other Universe Masters, it will surely benefit him. If he advances just one more step, he will become another Primogenitor! Given this, it was better to submit early; it wasn't a loss."

Luo Feng suddenly understood.

Right.

He cultivated to this level without ever displaying that axe technique. Once he engages in combat and tempering and takes another step forward, it is very possible.

"In that case, asking for only three peak-grade ultimate treasures?" Luo Feng mused. "That shouldn't mean much to the Divine Eye race, should it?"

"Haha, what kind of race do you think the Divine Eye race is?" Guest-by-the-Mountain shook his head. "They are the primary power of the First Reincarnation Era! Their standing is nearly comparable to the Two Great Sacred Land Universes! The Third True Lord could stand against Giant Axe, and as for the First True Lord, even if Giant Axe took one more monumental step, he could at most suppress the First True Lord. That First True Lord could withstand Primogenitor back in the day."

"The Seven True Lords, once they join forces, are even more terrifying."

"Hmph. Coupled with the impending doom facing the Divine Eye race, the Seven True Lords are naturally extremely desperate. If they truly went all-out against the Divine Eye race, even if Giant Axe is powerful individually, how could the entire human race contend against the Divine Eye race? I fear that the other Universe Masters wouldn't dare venture into the Sea of Universe anymore."

"This was a settling of grievances."

"Accepting some benefits without causing the Divine Eye race too much pain."

"The Divine Eye race is unwilling to provoke Giant Axe! And Giant Axe, for the future of the human race, is unwilling to engage in a full-scale war with the Divine Eye race," Guest-by-the-Mountain concluded. "Thus, this scene unfolded."

Luo Feng nodded slightly.

Yes, the human race's Founder of Giant Axe was mighty, but the other Universe Masters were not weak. If a full-scale war erupted, for the sake of safety, they might be forced to stop entering the Sea of Universe. If they couldn't enter the Sea of Universe to hone themselves, it would be very difficult for the human race to produce a third Universe Master.

"The power gap between Universe Masters is this vast," Luo Feng lamented.

"Only Primogenitor was comparatively aberrant and special. I suspect Giant Axe received guidance and direction from Primogenitor to become this strong," Guest-by-the-Mountain murmured. "Otherwise, relying solely on self-enlightenment, for both of them to reach this heaven-defying level is unlikely."

"Primogenitor?" Luo Feng nodded inwardly.

Although Primogenitor was permanently〖suppressed〗, he could still contact humanity. It was just that he likely only contacted Giant Axe, Chaos, and perhaps two or three others.

The green stone peak entered the area of frantic suction. Luo Feng was originally sucked in here, and the power of that suction... was even stronger than Giant Axe's attack.

Now, flying out from within required moving against this suction force.

"Whoosh," the green stone peak rotated, carving arcs, circling within the abyss, gradually moving outward.

"To get out, one must first resist part of the suction force and, second, borrow part of the suction force," Guest-by-the-Mountain explained. "We must borrow power; otherwise, even a Universe Master cannot escape! Only this way can we exit. The process of leaving will be slow, likely taking several months. During these months, I will completely repair the Mad Demon God Slaying Armor for you, and then you can continue your journey. Do what you need to do."

"Yes, Teacher," Luo Feng replied respectfully.

After leaving here, he would naturally head to the black stone pillar to temper his will.

Furthermore, he now possessed the black token from Wuhun, making the trip even more imperative!
