Position in the Cultivation Hierarchy

Universe Masters stand above Universe Venerables and are regarded as peak existences of the Original Universe. Mastering both the Law of the Origin of Space and the Law of the Origin of Time is identified as the standard route to this realm. 100 121

• A Universe Master's divine power is stated to be one hundred times that of a Universe Venerable. 174
• The transition from Immortal to Universe Master is described as extraordinarily difficult; the Human race had produced only slightly more than a dozen Universe Masters over countless epochs. 121
• The Beast God inheritance is another proposed route, but even fully comprehending it does not make advancement easy; the Heart of the Beast God is presented as its decisive bottleneck. 238
• Yang Wu later breaks through from Universe Venerable to Universe Master after comprehending the fundamental operation of the Law of the Origin of Time. 341

Combat-Power Tiers

Universe Masters are further assessed by combat power rather than realm alone. The Original Universe limits the strongest possible burst power to the sixth tier, even for stronger beings such as True Gods. 267 268 310

Tier	Description
Tier 1	A newly advanced Universe Master with relatively weak divine power and secret techniques. 267
Tier 2	A Master who has improved their life-gene level and acquired several Supreme Treasures. 267
Tier 3	Reached through exceptional advantages in treasures, life-gene level, or secret techniques, with the other areas approaching the same standard. Lord Youhou is cited as an example. 267
Tier 4	Requires extremely high standards in treasures and life genes, plus a strongest fourth-tier Universe Master secret technique. 267

Tier 6	The highest burst power permitted in the Original Universe; can be achieved by using an Ultimate Supreme Treasure. 268

Abilities & Characteristics

Origin-Law Mastery

A Universe Master must command both Space and Time Origin Laws. This dual mastery distinguishes them from Space or Time Venerables, who have mastered only one of the two major laws. 121

• Their presence can carry an overwhelming Space-Time Origin Law aura; Yang Wu describes the City Lord of Chaos as existing in a state where his being itself seems to be the origin law. 114
• Their comprehension allows the creation and use of Universe Master-level secret techniques, a feat considered inconceivable for lower realms. 239
• Fusion Origin Laws and the Beast God path can supplement cultivation, though Yang Wu considers the direct Space-Time path his intended route to Universe Master. 108 207

Divine Power and Supreme Treasures

Universe Masters employ vast divine bodies, advanced secret techniques, and Supreme Treasures to magnify their combat power. 174 267

• Ultimate Supreme Treasures can raise a Master's combat capability to the sixth tier within the Original Universe. 268
• High-grade and peak Supreme Treasures remain important even for powerful Masters; their secret-pattern layers and armor-piercing power can determine the outcome of battle. 174 284
• Universe Masters are exceptionally difficult to kill because they possess strong escape methods, life-saving techniques, and the ability to seek reinforcement from their factions. 268

Willpower

Willpower can be decisive even among Universe Masters. Yang Wu's Beast God clone unleashes will attacks powerful enough to make Masters with Universe Master-level consciousness feel severe pressure. 284

• Will and consciousness are distinct: consciousness depends on divine-power strength, while will can exceed one’s cultivation realm through personal conviction. 284
• True God-level will improves deduction, thought processing, and the study of mystic-imprint charts and Supreme Treasures. 284

Notable Universe Masters

• City Lord of Chaos — A Universe Master of the Virtual Universe Company and creator of the Universe Chaos Stele; he recognizes Yang Wu's potential early and later helps conceal his breakthrough. 106 267
• Lord of Darkness — A powerful Universe Master of the Virtual Universe lineage and teacher of Lord Youhou; reaches sixth-tier combat power after obtaining an Ultimate Supreme Treasure. 267 268
• Lord of Ice Peak — A Tier 4 Universe Master of the Virtual Universe Company. 267
• Lord Longxing — A Tier 4 Universe Master who attributes his own rise in part to Primal Ancestor's guidance. 267 269
• Lord Youhou — The low-profile disciple of the Lord of Darkness; previously the youngest known Universe Master of the Virtual Universe Company. 268
• Lord of Chen Huo — A Universe Master who battles Yang Wu's Blood Cloud Palace Master identity and loses a clone along with multiple Ultimate Supreme Treasures. 281 282
• Lord of the Galaxy — A fifth-tier Universe Master whose ultimate move, Kun Ye, is supported by two top-tier peak Supreme Treasure maces. 285
• Yang Wu / Martial Lord — Initially recognized as a Universe Master due to Tier 3 combat power while still a Universe Venerable; later truly advances to the Universe Master realm. 269 341

Story Role / Major Arcs

Attention During the Genius Battle

Several Universe Masters of the Virtual Universe Company and other forces notice Yang Wu after his rise surpasses Bolan. Their interest reflects his potential to become a Space Venerable—or possibly a Universe Master. 90

When Yang Wu chooses the difficult Universe Chaos Stele, five Universe Masters consider the choice a misuse of his exceptional spatial talent. They give him thirty years to prove that his Space-Time path is viable. 106 107

Recognition of Yang Wu's Potential

Universe Masters are shocked when Yang Wu displays extraordinary comprehension of both Space and Time Origin Laws while clearing the Tong Tian Bridge. The City Lord of Chaos reveals that Yang Wu possesses a perfect-gene Time Beast God clone, further overturning their expectations. 125

Yang Wu's life-gene level later reaches 120 times that of an ordinary human, surpassing the conventional pre-Universe Master limit. The Masters classify all information concerning him as the Human race's highest secret and increase his protection. 147 148

Yang Wu's Provisional Recognition

The City Lord of Chaos and other Masters formally recognize him as one of their peers. Yang Wu chooses the title Martial Lord. 269

Battles Against Universe Masters

While disguised as the Blood Cloud Palace Master, Yang Wu kills a top Universe Overlord and confronts the Lord of Chen Huo. 281

Yang Wu uses the Tier 4 Innate Technique Time Universe to erode the Lord of Chen Huo's divine body. After Chen Huo's clone self-destructs, Yang Wu obtains three Ultimate Supreme Treasures and a peak soul-type Supreme Treasure. 282

His Ultimate Supreme Treasure blade and domain later force multiple Universe Masters to flee, including those led by the fifth-tier Lord of the Galaxy. 285

True Advancement

Yang Wu ultimately comprehends the foundational mystery of the Law of the Origin of Time and breaks through to Universe Master. The breakthrough manifests as an immense interlocking black-and-white vortex above the Endless Nether Sea. 341
