The Supreme Treasure's Owner

Outer-Region Battlefield, Star Tower.

The Star Tower is nine light-years tall, seemingly obscuring half of the universe.

This treasure, one of the Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order in the Primal Universe, once sparked a fierce battle among the Four Peak Races, and even attracted the Universe Supreme Being. Yet, none of them were able to take it away.

As time passed, this place gradually became a battleground for countless Immortal God from billions of races across the universe. Over endless ages, countless powerful beings have perished here.

At this time, the Star Tower was still filled with battles and killings, but the level had dropped slightly, because some extremely powerful Limit King Level experts had also gone to the Yanji Continent to compete for treasures.

Star Tower, in the core hall, sat a majestic figure sitting cross-legged.

He had a long, coiled serpentine body, but a human upper body. His purple beard hung down, his eyelids drooped slightly, and he exuded a vast aura.

This person is none other than Puti, the eldest disciple of the Universe Supreme Being, whose strength is considered quite powerful even among the Universe Master.

For countless ages, Puti has been responsible for guarding the Star Tower, and has always done so wholeheartedly.

Of course, the Star Tower, this Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order, cannot be moved even by the Universe Supreme Being, so it naturally cannot be taken away. Therefore, Puti's most important task is to wait for the true leader of the Earth Lineage to appear.

Puti had initially thought that Yang Wu, the unparalleled human genius, might become the leader of the Earth Lineage, but the other party gave up on recognizing the Star Tower as his master.

Although he was very disappointed, Puti believed it was indeed the right choice.

After all, with Yang Wu's talent, his future achievements will surely be astonishing. Even if it were him, he wouldn't choose to acknowledge the Star Tower as his master.

However, what Puti didn't know was that Yang Wu's reason for giving up on recognizing the Star Tower as his master was not because he was afraid of the danger of perishing. After all, with the dual support of the Time Simulator and the Time Palace, even if he slowly worked his way up, it would be enough to complete the recognition of the Star Tower as his master.

"Sigh!" Puti sighed inwardly, thinking to himself, "I wonder when Earth Lineage will appear?"

"That little guy who just finished cultivating the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual not long ago has been making rapid progress lately. I wonder when he'll be able to come to this Outer-Region Battlefield for training?"

Throughout countless ages, apart from Yang Wu, the super genius who gave birth to the Yan God Race Clone, only the Earthling obtained the first Heaven Soul Crystal was qualified to recognize the Star Tower as its master. After success, he could become the personal disciple of the Mountain Sitting Guest.

Normally, Puti would only pay a little attention to things on Earth, waiting for the candidate to obtain the first Heaven Soul Crystal.

Anyone who can successfully withstand the illusion within the Heaven Soul Crystal and successfully cultivate the first level of the <Nine Tribulations Secret Manual> can become a candidate for the leader of the Earth Lineage.

The second Heaven Soul Crystal, however, has always been kept by Puti. He needs to choose the right time to create a challenging test for the candidate. Only by passing the test can the candidate obtain the second Heaven Soul Crystal.

As for the subsequent Heaven Soul Crystal and the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, they were arranged by the Mountain Sitting Guest himself, and even Puti could not know the details.

Now that Luo Feng has successfully cultivated the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, he can be considered a candidate for the leader of a regional faction. Therefore, Puti is paying attention to his growth from time to time and preparing to create a suitable test.

Just then, a hazy golden light suddenly shone in the hall.

"Hmm?" Puti was slightly surprised.

This main hall Star Tower is its core area and cannot be entered by Teleportation. Therefore, it can only be God Kingdom Teleportation.

However, God Kingdom Teleportation requires coordinate Token. Currently, the leader of the Earth Lineage has not yet appeared, and the only ones who can leave coordinate Token here are the four people who attempted to Mountain Sitting Guest.

"Could it be my Third Junior Brother?" Puti wondered to himself.

Just then, a burly figure slowly emerged from the hazy golden light.

"Second Junior Brother?" Puti asked, slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected the visitor to be Yan Emperor.

Although the Mountain Sitting Guest's Token are kept here, Mountain Sitting Guest will not come here unless a candidate from the Earth Lineage appears.

Yan Emperor also knew the other residences of the Mountain Sitting Guest, so it was impossible for him to come here to look for the Mountain Sitting Guest.

"Could it be that my Second Junior Brother has come to see me?" Puti wondered to himself.

In fact, it's perfectly normal for fellow disciples to have frequent interactions and keep in touch with each other.

But Yan Emperor is different.

Puti knew very well that for countless years, the Yan Emperor had always looked down on him.

Because he was originally a Servant of Master Mountain Sitting Guest, in terms of aptitude and Supreme Treasure, he was naturally inferior to Yan Emperor was cultivated, nurtured, and selected by Mountain Sitting Guest with endless effort.

Therefore, Puti was also secretly working hard to cultivate, just to prove that he was no worse than Yan Emperor.

Although he said he disliked fighting, that was in the Primal Universe.

However, the Puti in the Universe Ocean are incredibly frenzied, often fighting desperately for precious treasures.

In this way, he created the Strongest Secret Technique of the Universe Master; accumulated endless resources, raised his own Life Gene Level to nearly ten thousand times; and even obtained a Peak Supreme Treasure weapon.

Of course, although his strength has now surpassed that of the Yan Emperor and he can be considered Fourth-Order Universe Master, he is still extremely low-key and humble.

Because the longer it went on, the more he understood the terror of the teacher, the Mountain Sitting Guest.

In Puti's eyes, even the 'Original Ancestor' who was once invincible across the Universe Ocean was probably not as mysterious as the Mountain Sitting Guest.

Although he didn't understand Wei He the Mountain Sitting Guest would spend so much time and effort cultivating his two disciples, he also harbored ambitions and hoped to have the same opportunities as the Yan God Race Leader and the leader of the Earthling.

Therefore, even though he had become Fourth-Order Universe Master who was difficult to kill even by the Universe Supreme Being, he still completed the task assigned by the Mountain Sitting Guest with utmost seriousness, waiting for the candidate from the Earth Lineage to appear.

"Eldest Senior Brother!" Before Puti could finish his questioning, he heard Yan Emperor's voice echo in the hall, "I heard from our teacher that Earth Lineage has emerged? Perhaps you can finally escape this mission!"

Of course, although Yan Emperor said that, he was also very clear in his heart about how difficult it was to recognize the Star Tower as its master.

He paid close attention when the first candidate recognized the Star Tower, after all, the Earth Human Lineage was carefully guided and nurtured by the Mountain Sitting Guest.

Moreover, the Star Tower was, after all, a Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order, and Yan Emperor was somewhat unwilling to accept it.

But it was only after the first candidate began to acknowledge the Star Tower as his master that he realized the terrifying nature of this 'Life-and-Death Inheritance'!

Although Yan Emperor was unwilling to admit it, he knew in his heart that the first candidate's talent and comprehension were even more amazing than his own.

Yet this genius, who even had the chance to become the Universe Master, died during the process of recognizing the master of the Star Tower, unable to bear the pain!

It was that experience that made Yan Emperor completely give up his illusions about the Star Tower, the Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order. After all, although the Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order was powerful, it was nothing compared to his life!

"It's difficult!" Puti sighed and said softly, "The difficulty of recognizing Star Tower as its master surpasses even the countless trials you've faced, Second Junior Brother. Success won't be an easy task!"

At the same time, Puti also became secretly wary.

Eldest Senior Brother?

When has Yan Emperor ever regarded him as his Eldest Senior Brother?

Throughout countless years, Yan Emperor has only addressed him Eldest Senior Brother twice.

The first time was when Yan Emperor was facing the challenge left by his teacher, Mountain Sitting Guest. Yan Emperor was afraid that he would not be able to pass it, so he wanted to ask Zuo Shan Ke to go easy on him a little.

But how could he possibly do such a thing? Naturally, he resolutely refused. And it was precisely for this reason that Yan Emperor harbored considerable dissatisfaction with him.

The second time was when the Yan Emperor sought his help during a battle for a Supreme Treasure in the Universe Ocean.

Although he disliked Yan Emperor's personality and attitude, he still displayed some of his strength out of respect for his teacher, and together with Yan Emperor, forced back the Third-Order Universe Master of the Second Reincarnation Era.

But after this incident, Yan Emperor's biggest concern was that his strength had increased significantly, which was utterly baffling!

Now that Yan Emperor has addressed him as Eldest Senior Brother again, perhaps he has some new scheme in mind.

"Eldest Senior Brother!" Yan Emperor said with a smile, "As the saying goes, 'When the teacher has something to do, the disciple will do it.' Although waiting for the candidate from the Earth Lineage to appear is your task, Eldest Senior Brother, if you have other things to do, you might as well call me over. I can wait for you for a while, it's not a problem!"

A smile actually appeared on Yan Emperor's face?

If someone he knows well saw this, they would undoubtedly be astonished!

After all, since becoming the Universe Master, Yan Emperor has roamed the cosmos with unparalleled power, even disregarding elite races like humanity. He has never shown a smile to anyone.

In fact, even the Yan Emperor wasn't incapable of smiling.

Even when Planetary Level, or even the Domain Lord Level or World Lord Level, although he had a domineering personality, he was also quite humble. As for stealing his companions' Supreme Treasure, that would never happen!

But as his strength grew and his backers became more powerful, his ego naturally swelled!

Moreover, after Yan Emperor plundered the treasures of his own kind and broke away from the Human Race while he was still among Human Race, he was quite uneasy.

After all, although he was very powerful at the time, and he was protected by the Tribulation Armor, even the Universe Supreme Being could not kill him.

However, if many powerful individuals from the Human Race were to act simultaneously, they could still suppress him.

Therefore, Yan Emperor was thinking of leading the Yan God Race to join another race that was opposed to the Human Race. However, unexpectedly, although the Human Race sent strong people to fight against him, none of the top experts were mobilized.

Of course, Yan Emperor was also well aware that all of this was due to his relationship with the strongest lone Mountain Sitting Guest.

But now, a genius who seems more suitable to be the leader of the Yan God Race Lineage has appeared. Will he be abandoned by Mountain Sitting Guest? And will Mountain Sitting Guest take back his Tribulation Armor, his Origin Soul, and the Yan God Halberd?

If he were to truly lose these three treasures, his strength would likely decrease significantly!

Therefore, even though he still held Puti in contempt, Yan Emperor had no choice but to come here to gather information. After all, Puti was hardworking and conscientious, and although his talent was somewhat lacking, he was the disciple who had followed the Mountain Sitting Guest the longest.

Seeing that Yan Emperor was becoming increasingly abnormal, Puti became even more vigilant. He then smiled and said, "The task left by our teacher is not complicated. Normally, you can just create a Divine Power Avatar. You don't need to trouble yourself, Second Junior Brother!"

Yan Emperor casually recounted a few more things, then inadvertently asked, "Eldest Senior Brother, I've heard that within our Yan God Race Lineage, there's an Invincible King Level expert, the God Slayer King, who has recently made quite a name for himself on the Seventh Outer-Region Battlefield. I wonder if you've heard of him?"

"The God Slayer King?" Puti pondered for a moment.

He finally understood the purpose of Yan Emperor's visit.

In fact, not only Yan Emperor, but even Puti himself was extremely shocked after learning that Yang Wu's Yan God Race Clone was very likely to have reached Perfect Gene!

While everyone else believed that the God Slayer King was Immortal God, Puti knew very well that the so-called God Slayer King was merely a Clone of Yang Wu, a peerless genius at the World Lord Level.

The Yan Emperor, who World Lord Level back then, was already incredibly talented. He broke through the limitation of a hundred times the genetic limit by relying on his own talent and became the leader of the Yan God Race Lineage.

But compared to the stunning Yan Emperor back then, there's absolutely no comparison between him and Yang Wu now!

"If Yang Wu is interested in the future, he might actually be able to replace my Second Junior Brother as the leader of the Yan God Race Lineage!" Puti thought to himself.

Of course, Puti was well aware that the Mountain Sitting Guest still harbored some affection for Yan Emperor, his disciple. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to forge a new Supreme Treasure for Yang Wu; he could have simply retrieved the Origin Soul and the Yan God Halberd from Yan Emperor's body.

"But should I tell my Second Junior Brother the news?" Puti hesitated.

Puti then directly contacted his teacher Mountain Sitting Guest, using his Communication Token to inquire.

The answer I received was quite unexpected.

"Whether or not to inform Yan Emperor is entirely up to you!"

Puti was slightly taken aback, unable to fathom the thoughts of the Mountain Sitting Guest.

After a moment's thought, Puti decided to tell Yan Emperor part of the matter, thinking that if Yan Emperor could break through under pressure because of this, the teacher would be quite satisfied.

Thinking of this, Puti immediately told Yan Emperor that the God Slayer King had become the disciple of the Mountain Sitting Guest, but concealed the fact that the God Slayer King was actually Yang Wu, a genius at the World Lord Level a world lord of the Human Race.

"Impossible!"

"That's impossible!"

Upon learning this news, Yan Emperor roared with rage, his eyes burning with an extreme, twisted, and insane flame.

Although unwilling to believe it, Yan Emperor knew very well that if the God Slayer King's Life Gene had truly reached the perfect level, or even if it had only broken the limit of Hundredfold Life Gene Level, it was very likely that the Mountain Sitting Guest would accept him as a disciple!

After all, the reason he was able to become the leader of the Yan God Race Lineage was because he successfully broke through the limitation of the Hundredfold Life Gene Level!

"I must find him and kill him!"

"Just watch, Master Mountain Sitting Guest! Even if you take on another disciple, I will still be the final victor. He will never catch up with me and will always be trampled under my feet!"

"Second Junior Brother!" Puti said gently, "Although the God Slayer King was also taken in as a disciple by our Master, it doesn't necessarily mean he'll clash with you."

"Puti, you don't need to tell me, I already know!"

Yan Emperor said in a deep voice, "I have important matters to attend to, so I won't stay here with you!"

Having received concrete information, Yan Emperor naturally wouldn't linger inside the Star Tower any longer, and his figure immediately vanished.

However, after leaving the Star Tower, Yan Emperor did not return directly to the Yan God Secret Region, but instead went directly to the Yanji Continent, which was not too far from the Star Tower.

Buzz!

Accompanied by a spatial fluctuation, a hazy golden light suddenly shone in the sky above the Central Region of Yanji Continent.

Immediately, a towering figure appeared in the sky above the Yanji Continent. He exuded boundless pressure, causing countless powerful figures on the entire Yanji Continent, and even on countless fragments of the surrounding continent, to feel their souls tremble. They felt as if they were facing the Tiandi and earth, and could be annihilated in this endless void at any moment.

The feeling that they could perish at any moment filled everyone with terror, turning them pale, and they all looked up at the towering figure in the sky.

"He is the Universe Master!"

"It is the great Universe Master!"

Many powerful figures on the Yanji Continent paled in shock. They were all true elites of their respective races, and most of the powerful individuals who possessed the Limit King Level came from races with deep foundations, so they naturally knew about the Universe Master.

Moreover, apart from the Universe Master, no one dares to venture into the Outer-Region Battlefield established by the Four Peak Races.

Meanwhile, in the void outside the Yanji Continent, the four Universe Overlord sent by the Four Peak Races to maintain order also slightly changed their expressions.

"It's Yan Emperor!"

As Universe Overlord, the four of them naturally had a certain understanding of the super-strong beings in the universe, and thus recognized the identity of Yan Emperor immediately.

However, the four people's performances were quite different.

Among them, the Universe Overlord from the Zerg Race was somewhat surprised, but his face remained quite calm. The two Universe Overlord from the Monster Race and the Machine Race, however, changed color slightly. As for the Venerable Heiyan, he looked as if he were facing a formidable enemy.

Of course, despite their different thoughts, the four of them quickly relayed the news of Yan Emperor's appearance on the Outer-Region Battlefield back to their respective clans.

In the Virtual Universe, the Venerable Heiyan stood before the Lord of Longxing.

"Teacher, the Yan Emperor Yan God Race has suddenly appeared on the Outer-Region Battlefield!" Venerable Heiyan said respectfully.

"Yan Emperor?" A flash of anger crossed the Lord of Longxing's face. "This Yan Emperor is truly shameless!"

In fact, even if other Universe Master were willing to swallow their pride, they wouldn't dare to risk offending the Four Peak Races and go to the Outer-Region Battlefield to compete for a High-grade Supreme Treasure weapon.

Those powerful individuals who are not afraid of the four Four Peak Races will not offend them for the sake of a High-grade Supreme Treasure weapon.

But Yan Emperor is different!

He is inherently selfish, greedy, and domineering, and he also has the strongest lone warrior backing him up. Even if he really manages to seize that High-grade Supreme Treasure weapon, the Four Peak Races will be helpless against him!

"Black smoke, the spacetime around the Yanji Continent is now completely sealed off. Even I can't teleport there directly. You and those little guys are in danger this time!" The Lord of Longxing sighed.

"Rest assured, Master, your disciple will never disgrace the Human Race!" Venerable Heiyan said solemnly.

The Venerable Heiyan knew very well that the enmity between the Yan Emperor and the Human Race ran deep, and that he might perish if he encountered the other party this time.

Monster Race.

"This Yan Emperor is truly shameless. He possesses such luxurious treasures, yet he would actually care about a High-grade Supreme Treasure?"

"Forget it, the spacetime around the Yanji Continent has been completely sealed off, so let him have that Supreme Treasure. Anyway, the Human Race will definitely suffer the greatest losses this time!"

"Yes!" replied the Monster Race's Universe Overlord who had delivered the message.

Both the Zerg Race and the Machine Race took their own responses. Although they also felt that Yan Emperor was shameless, they were helpless against Yan Emperor arrival.

Buzz!

Having arrived above the Yanji Continent, the Yan Emperor has begun to Reverse Time and Space, attempting to find information about the God Slayer King.

Time and space continued to flow slowly backward, and Yan Emperor had already heard the exclamations of countless powerful King Rank.

He saw everyone discussing how the God Slayer King's Divine Body had suddenly swelled up;

He saw it...

Suddenly--

The entire scene of Reverse Time and Space suddenly froze.

The expressions of countless King Level Immortal froze, and even some of the constantly shattering space itself came to a complete standstill.

Immediately, the reversed flow of time and space began to rapidly return to normal, and everything returned to reality.

"Um?"

A hint of confusion appeared in Yan Emperor's eyes, followed by boundless shock.

"My Reverse Time and Space was interrupted!"

"This..."

"That scene just now was definitely the descent of the Will of the Original Universe!"

Regardless of the circumstances, Yan Emperor was a disciple of the Mountain Sitting Guest, and his vision was naturally extraordinary. Therefore, he was well aware of what it meant for the Reverse Time and Space to be interrupted.

Although he can control a certain spacetime, this also requires the cooperation of the universe itself!

Since the Universe Origin Will descended when Reverse Time and Space, it's not surprising that his control over time was stripped away!

"It seems that the God Slayer King has indeed reached the Perfect Gene Level!"

Yan Emperor frowned, thinking to himself, "Next, I must become stronger as quickly as possible; my Supreme Treasure must not be lost!"

Then, Yan Emperor looked down at the Yanji Continent, the Immortal God of the many Human Race on the Yanji Continent, and even the Venerable Heiyan in the void outside the Yanji Continent.

"Humans?"

"Snort!"

A cold snort echoed in the minds of all the powerful humans around, causing everyone to show pain on their faces.

Boom!

Yan Emperor's gaze narrowed slightly, and then the High-grade Supreme Treasure in the center of the Yanji Continent, the Earth Dragon Mountain-Opening Axe, broke the seal and flew directly to Yan Emperor's front.

After all, no matter how powerful the Yanji Race was, they were still just an ordinary clan. How could their remaining seal possibly withstand a Universe Master?

Therefore, the Earth Dragon Mountain-Opening Axe, which was originally expected to take some time to emerge, broke through the seal at this moment.

As for the once vast and boundless Yanji Continent, it was directly shattered into countless small fragments after the Earth Dragon Mountain-Opening Axe was taken away.

After all, the Yanji Continent had already endured fierce battles for many years, and now that its core had been taken away, its fragmentation was an inevitable result.

Call!

Immediately afterwards, Yan Emperor disappeared without a trace, taking with him the Earth Dragon Mountain-Opening Axe.

In the endless void, the four Universe Overlord, including the Venerable Heiyan, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the Yan Emperor disappear, while also secretly wondering about it.

They were naturally not surprised that Yan Emperor took away the Earth Dragon Mountain-Opening Axe.

When did Yan Emperor become so easy to talk to?

After all, in the past years, all the powerful humans that Yan Emperor encountered, whether Immortal God or Universe Venerable, have perished!

But now, Venerable Heiyan and the others have only suffered minor injuries!

"Black smoke, you're really lucky!" the Monster Race 'Universe Overlord sneered.

"Hmph!" Venerable Heiyan snorted coldly, not saying much. In fact, he didn't know Wei He Yan Emperor would let him go.

However, being able to survive is indeed a happy thing!

I overestimated myself; these 6000 words don't count as a make-up update.
