"No strongest in the universe, and you dare challenge us?" "Human, you are finished." "A laughable human." Standing upon the silver serpent's neck, the Demon Race Universe Masters attacked with all their might, their divine power roaring and bellowing through telepathic transmission, clearly brimming with elation. With the aid of the 'Dream Demon Ancestor'...

even if they unleashed their full power, what did it matter if the opponent possessed an ultimate supreme treasure? "Hoo!" As the Dream Demon Ancestor flew at high speed, its tail whipped out suddenly!

Whoosh~~ The colossal serpent tail instantly elongated to millions of kilometers in length, sweeping across the void like a gigantic soft whip, seemingly tearing the very fabric of space in two. At that moment, the 'Lord Peng Gong,' who was enduring the combined assault of twelve Demon Race Universe Masters, could only grit his teeth and use the Yan Jun Rod in his hand to barely defend himself.

"Boom~~" Lord Peng Gong was sent tumbling away. As he flew, his speed abruptly surged, actually reaching the speed of light!

In the previous battles, although Luo Feng and the others appeared to move at the speed of light, they were still missing that tiny fraction required for true light speed. Now, Lord Peng Gong had broken past that barrier and directly entered light speed.

Instantly, his entire body was transferred into the 'Dark Universe.' "They're here," the Dark Lord smiled. "Let's go," Luo Feng said as well.

Both of their speeds rapidly surpassed that critical threshold, and they immediately entered the 'Dark Universe.' "The Dark Universe?" The Dream Demon Ancestor, already tens of millions of kilometers long, coiled in the void, the Demon Race Masters appearing like mere specks upon it. "Fleeing to the Dark Universe is useless." "Demon Ancestor, we cannot give these humans any opportunity." "Kill." "Slay them." The Dream Demon Ancestor no longer resisted the attraction of the Dark Universe and effortlessly left the Original Universe, entering the Dark Universe.

In the Virtual Universe, around the long stone table before the Giant Axe Temple, numerous Universe Masters were seated. The seat of 'Giant Axe' naturally remained empty.

Luo Feng and the others were all present here. Though engaged in battle.

They were able to coordinate through communication via the 'Virtual Universe'! "We have already experienced the might of this Dream Demon Ancestor and understand the formidable nature of the true strongest in the universe; we have a baseline now!" Lord Peng Gong stated.

"If I am besieged by that Dream Demon Ancestor and the twelve Demon Race Masters a few more times, I won't be able to withstand it." "The true strongest in the universe are truly hard to deal with," the Dark Lord frowned. Luo Feng nodded: "They are powerful!" The true strongest in the universe were, after all, beings on a higher plane.

Although the Original Universe imposed limitations on them—first, their divine power output was restricted to that of a Universe Master with ten-thousand-fold gene level; second, the limit on attack power was peak sixth-tier; third, killing a Universe Master would incur punishment; and fourth, they were stripped of their ability to command reality with their words, meaning the fundamental laws of the Original Universe would no longer retreat! However, auxiliary methods—such as utilizing ten-thousand-fold gene divine power and 'flight techniques at the level of the universe's strongest' to reach extreme speeds—were not restricted.

While speeds could reach tens or hundreds of times the speed of light, the resulting impact force did not reach peak sixth-tier combat strength, so these were not limited. Methods like resisting the pull of the Dark Universe...

these were all auxiliary techniques. It was precisely because of these auxiliary methods that the true strongest in the universe were so troublesome.

Other powerhouses moving near the speed of light in the Original Universe would be automatically transferred to the 'Dark Universe' once they hit that mark! But the universe's strongest could travel at ten or a hundred times the speed of light while still moving freely within the Original Universe—that was their capability!

"It is time for us to act," the Dark Lord stated grimly. "From beginning to end, I have only manipulated the Black Prison Tower, unleashing one area-of-effect attack, 'Darkness Sinking.' I haven't truly unleashed myself yet." "Nor have we truly acted!" Lord Long Xing, Lord Huang Jian, Lord Xu Jin, Lord Qing Dong all exclaimed, filled with eager anticipation.

"I haven't acted either," Luo Feng chuckled. Like the Dark Lord, he had only used auxiliary methods, not truly made his move!

Lord Peng Gong smiled too. The group of Universe Masters smiled.

Yes, the Human Race had yet to exert its full strength! In the initial war projections...

this confrontation with the Demon Race was merely the first wave, intended both to intimidate other factions and to better understand the capabilities of the 'universe's strongest' through this battle, gaining experience for the future. So, they showed weakness initially!

But one or two rounds of feigned weakness were enough to immediately make Luo Feng and the others understand the troublesome aspects of the universe's strongest. Now that they understood, that was sufficient!

"Cripple them," Lord Peng Gong grinned widely. "Make them afraid!" "Make the Demon Race regret this!" "Gentlemen, attack!" "Kill!" "Kill!" The ancient figures seated at the long table could no longer restrain themselves.

In the Dark Universe, Lord Peng Gong, Luo Feng, the Black Prison Tower, and the Tomb Boat appeared sequentially. Although they were distant from each other in the Original Universe, once in the Dark Universe, they immediately clustered together.

This was because the Dark Universe itself was vastly smaller than the Original Universe, with a spatial ratio reaching tens of millions to one. A distance of less than one hundred million kilometers previously was now less than ten kilometers between Luo Feng and Lord Peng Gong!

For them, what an infinitesimally small distance? Luo Feng waved his hand, and the Tomb Boat was instantly recalled.

Luo Feng, Lord Peng Gong, and the Dark Lord stood side-by-side in the void of the Dark Universe. Of course, they were all moving slowly, because remaining static in the Dark Universe resulted in automatic transfer back to the 'Original Universe.' In this vast expanse of void, countless points of light, like fireflies, drifted nearby.

"They've arrived," Luo Feng noted. "Hmph, the Demon Race," Lord Peng Gong sneered coldly.

The Dark Lord watched with detached indifference. "Boom~" The silver serpent, with the twelve Universe Masters standing on its neck, also appeared in the void ahead.

It was no more than ten kilometers from Luo Feng. The distance was clearly negligible; a casual sweep of its tail could touch them.

The serpent's icy eyes swept over them, and it spoke in a raspy voice, "You were fighting in the Original Universe earlier; I thought you didn't want to enter the Dark Universe." "Haha, Dream Demon Ancestor," Luo Feng flapped his four wings and laughed. "In this Dark Universe, speed can easily surpass light speed, with no upper limit!

This significantly reduces your advantage. Why wouldn't we come in?

With your immense strength, are we supposed to just let you run rampant?" "Significantly reduced advantage? How arrogant.

Can your burst of speed possibly compare to mine?" the silver serpent roared. "I will show you that even in the Dark Universe, you will only taste defeat!" Whoosh!

The silver serpent's speed suddenly skyrocketed, accelerating with terrifying swiftness. "The instantaneous acceleration truly far exceeds ours; no wonder it could break the speed of light in the Original Universe," Luo Feng murmured to himself.

"Ready!" "Give them a harsh blow." "Cripple them in one go!" "Cripple them!" Seeing the Dream Demon Ancestor charge, Luo Feng and the others were actually thrilled. The colossal serpent body of the Dream Demon Ancestor swept through a massive arc, its tail lashing out directly at Luo Feng, the Dark Lord, and Lord Peng Gong.

Simultaneously, the Demon Race Masters standing on its neck launched their own attacks. A sky-blotting torrent of assaults descended upon them all.

Luo Feng, the Dark Lord, and Peng Gong not only felt no fear but instead felt their eyes burn with excitement. "Boom~~" The Black Prison Tower materialized out of thin air before the Dark Lord.

Under the control of the Dark Lord’s divine power, the entire tower rotated, and countless secret patterns on its surface shimmered—the flow of time itself circulated. The black light formed by the transformation of these patterns constantly converged toward the tower's apex, causing the tip to shift from black to an extremely dense, terrifying shade of black, then seemingly becoming nothingness, before transforming into a blinding white light!

A black pyramid, its apex radiating dazzling white light. It streaked past like a white afterimage and slammed directly into the body of the Dream Demon Ancestor as it swept toward them, sending the massive serpent body tumbling backward in retreat.

"Kill!" the Dark Lord roared. Instantly, figures like Lord Qing Dong and others materialized beside him.

"Kill!" Luo Feng also shouted, and figures like Lord Bing Feng and his group appeared beside him. "Kill," Lord Peng Gong roared furiously, and Lord Xu Jin and others also appeared.

Boom~~~ The twelve Human Race Universe Masters attacked alongside Luo Feng, Lord Peng Gong, and the Dark Lord. Although Luo Feng's group was composed of three teams totaling twelve members, some had brought clones, meaning there were actually sixteen figures following the three main leaders.

As for the Demon Race... because unleashing ultimate moves required total focus, dividing one's mind across two or three targets significantly impacted their strength.

Therefore, the Demon Race members were all operating singularly, without clones. "Kill!" The Dream Demon Ancestor, still reeling from the impact of the Black Prison Tower, was almost simultaneously struck by the terrifying Yan Jun Rod!

The Yan Jun Rod delivered a direct, vertical chop! It was as if the Dark Universe itself was cleaved in two!

Crack! Although the Dream Demon Ancestor resisted with all its might, it still plummeted rapidly downward.

This single strike also shocked the group of Universe Masters who had been standing on its body, knocking them clear. "Ice Seal!" "Nightmare!" "Annihilate All Realms!" "My Heart, Dragon's Path!" Though described slowly, this all occurred extremely rapidly.

Just as the Dream Demon Ancestor suffered those two lightning-fast consecutive blows from the 'Black Prison Tower' and Lord Peng Gong's Yan Jun Rod, forcing the group of Demon Race Universe Masters off its body, the Human Race Universe Masters, who had remained silent until now, erupted, each unleashing their proud ultimate techniques. They struck like a torrential downpour!

Especially after losing the Dream Demon Ancestor's protection, the 'Golden Kingdom' and the 'Snow Sand Sea' simultaneously pressed down and constrained their movements. Coupled with the crazy, overwhelming encirclement by the Human Race Universe Masters...

the Demon Race instantly found themselves under immense strain. "Luo Feng!" "Luo Feng!" Lord Peng Gong and the Dark Lord both looked toward Luo Feng ahead!

"Demon Race!" Luo Feng spread his four wings. His speed in the Dark Universe was now completely unleashed, and the initial distances were already minuscule.

This combined onslaught from the Human Race, like the shattering of heaven and earth—with the Dark Lord, Peng Gong, and the other twelve Universe Masters having already struck—Luo Feng was the final piece! Luo Feng's hand instantly rested on the hilt of the Blood Shadow Blade on his back.

"Blood Shadow Blade, this is the first time you are drawn!" "Demon Race..." Whoosh~~ Accompanied by a light so intensely brilliant it seared the eyes, the Blood Shadow Blade was unsheathed!
