The Decision to Back Down

Just as Yang Wu was fighting the two True Lords of the God Eye Race, about eight million light-years away in this space-time, a magnificent oval palace suddenly appeared out of thin air. Inside this oval palace were three powerful beings. All three of them were composed of pure skeletons, and they were obviously powerful beings of the Skeleton Race from the First Reincarnation Era.

The Skeleton Race was a peak race in the first era. Although their overall strength was slightly weaker than that of the God Eye Race, the difference was not too great. Otherwise, they would not have fought with the God Eye Race for countless years.

"Qing He, it's been hundreds of billions of epochs since you last ventured into this Universe Boat!" A tall, eerie figure, entirely crimson and seemingly formed from blood-red bones, said with a laugh, "Now that we're in the core area of this Universe Boat, Li Hai and I must properly show you the hospitality of our hosts!"

"Haha..." A giant white crane figure made entirely of bones laughed and said, "Chi Liu, I heard that tens of thousands of years ago, you and Li Hai joined forces to snatch a Top-Grade Palace-type Supreme Treasure from the Monster Race's Lord of Changjiu in the Primal Universe?"

The Lord of Chi Liu and the Lord of Li Hai are two extremely powerful Universe Master among the Skeleton Race. Both have reached the Fifth Order. Because they often act together, one is good at close combat and the other is good at speed. When the two join forces, they are enough to roam the Universe Ocean.

"Hmph! Just a little guy from a Primal Universe!"

The Lord of Li Hai scoffed, "At most, that Monster Race can only show off their power in the Primal Universe by relying on two of the Universe Supreme Being in the universe. This Universe Ocean is not a place where they can act recklessly!"

"And then there's the Lord of Changjiu, who's said to be an extremely rare genius among the Monster Race. But in my opinion, his strength is still far inferior to that of the Chaos City Leader among the Human Race!"

"Of course!" Lord of Qing He nodded and said, "That Chaos City Leader was considered by the Progenitor the Purple Moon Holy Land to be the Fifth-Order Universe Master with the best chance of becoming the Universe Supreme Being. Although there were several Universe Masters in my First Reincarnation Era and Second Reincarnation Era who were stronger than him, they ultimately lost the opportunity to become the Universe Supreme Being!"

"Speaking of which, a super genius has recently emerged among the Human Race, named the Time Lord. I heard that he is currently cultivating in seclusion within the Black Pattern Stone Pillar space. I wonder if either of you have met him?"

"Hmm!" The Lord of Li Hai nodded and said, "Thousands of years ago, Wei He the Chi Liu went to rest in the space of the Black Pattern Stone Pillar, it did see the Time Lord from afar!"

"How is it? How strong is the opponent? Is he as powerful as rumored?" Lord of Qing He asked hurriedly.

"I'm not sure about that. At that time, the Time Lord was focused on his cultivation within the space of that Black Pattern Stone Pillar and didn't engage in any battles with other powerful beings," the Lord of Li Hai sighed. "However, his will is indeed extremely strong, probably comparable to those truly the Universe Supreme Being!"

"Such a powerful figure is truly astonishingly talented; I really wish I could fight him!" The Lord of Qing He couldn't help but exclaim.

"Let's not talk about that now!" The Lord of Chi Liu changed the subject and continued, "Qing He, the ruins you mentioned are in the Magma Sea. We still need to cross this Quicksand Domain first. Let's get going!"

"No..." The Lord of Li Hai was about to speak in agreement, but he couldn't help but frown.

At the same time, the Lord of Qing He's eyes lit up as he carefully sensed it.

"That direction!"

"That's it!"

Soon, the three Lord of Li Hai turned their heads to look in one direction at the same time. They all understood that there was movement there, and it was quite a commotion.

"Qing He, shall we go or not?" the Lord of Li Hai asked.

"Haha, of course I'll go!" Lord of Qing He said with a laugh, "I came to this Universe Boat for treasures, but I didn't expect to see such a big commotion in this Quicksand Domain!"

"Yes, although Supreme Treasure occasionally appear in the Quicksand Domain, they are usually only High-grade Supreme Treasure. How could there be such a big commotion?"

The Lord of Li Hai said, "Perhaps there are powerful figures fighting there. If we go over, we might be able to take advantage of the situation!"

"Then let's go!"

"Walk!"

Whoosh!

The oval palace vanished instantly and began to Teleportation continuously within the Quicksand Domain.

The Universe Master travels so swiftly through Teleportation that a mere few million light-years is utterly insignificant.

So, almost immediately, the three Lord of Chi Liu arrived at the area where Yang Wu and the two Universe Supreme Being, the God Eye Race, were fighting.

Upon sensing the powerful domain permeating the surrounding space and time, the Lord of Chi Liu's expression changed slightly. "Not good, it's the 'Star Kingdom' of the Third True Master of the God Eye Race!"

"They are actually the Universe Supreme Being from the God Eye Race. How could they possibly appear in this Quicksand Domain?" The Lord of Qing He was quite puzzled at this moment.

It should be noted that the Quicksand Domain is a fairly safe area within the Universe Boat. Even if a Supreme Treasure occasionally appears, it is extremely ordinary and not worth the attention of the Universe Supreme Being.

"It seems that the Star Lord of the God Eye Race is Strongest Battle. It looks like there are other Universe Supreme Being from the God Eye Race in the universe here. Otherwise, the Star Lord could not have unleashed such power when he used the Star Kingdom alone!" The Lord of Li Hai said with a frown.

"Time Lord, now that the three Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order have been combined using a secret technique, I refuse to believe I can't kill you!"

Just then, a cold voice emanated from the Star Domain.

"It's actually the Time Lord?" The Lord of Li Hai couldn't help but show an expression of disbelief. "How could a mere Universe Master possibly stop the Star Lord of the God Eye Race?"

"Yes, according to what the Star Lord said, it seems that even the two Universe Supreme Being the God Eye Race, working together, couldn't defeat the other side?" The Lord of Chi Liu also showed an incredulous expression.

At the same time, Yang Wu and the others, who were engaged in battle, also noticed the appearance of the three Lord of Chi Liu. However, the three of them were extremely far away and outside the Space Lockdown range, so they could leave at any time.

At this moment, Yang Wu, upon seeing the even more terrifying Eternal True God, showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he once again unleashed his Sixth Order Secret Method, 'Thunderous Might', with all his might!

Wow!

The instant the Inverted Blood Edge Spear out, countless dazzling spear lights appeared in the surrounding space. Then, these countless spear lights converged and exploded, annihilating all matter and energy in the surrounding area.

Bang!

A muffled sound rang out, and Yang Wu was sent flying backward by the immense impact. Although he was clearly at a disadvantage, his Divine Body suffered little damage, almost imperceptible.

"What?"

"How is this possible?"

"It blocked it again?"

In that instant, everyone around was stunned.

Not only were the Star Lord and the Jade Eye Lord, who were attacking Yang Wu, stunned, but even the Three-Eyed Demon God, who had just spoken up to remind Yang Wu, was completely dumbfounded.

"How is that possible?"

"The strongest attack unleashed by the two Star Lord —even if I were to take it, I'd probably be injured, right? How could the Time Lord be unharmed?"

"It must be the Dark Night Nether Armor, it must be!"

"It seems that the Dark Night Nether Armor has indeed undergone a tremendous change in power after fusing with another component. Even among the strongest Supreme Treasure Armor, it should be considered extremely powerful!"

For a moment, the Three-Eyed Demon God was truly unable to accept it.

Just six months ago, he was able to easily defeat the Time Lord, but now the Time Lord's strength is comparable to his own?

"I am the Universe Supreme Being!" the Three-Eyed Demon God couldn't help but roar in his heart.

Although he knew in his heart that Yang Wu's future achievements would be extremely amazing, Yang Wu was only a Universe Master at the moment!

Meanwhile, the Lord of Wuhun and others, who had been watching the battle from the Jin Chan Palace, also stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the scene before them.

Previously, when they saw the two Star Lord unleash their full power, they were secretly marveling at how Yang Wu's heaven-defying Clone was about to be annihilated by the God Eye Race.

"The Time Lord is doomed!" That was what the three Lord of Wuhun thought at the time.

But at this moment--

"How... how is this possible?" The three Lord of Wuhun were completely dumbfounded.

How could the power of a Universe Master be so terrifying? Has such a heaven-defying Universe Master ever appeared in the Universe Ocean?

"How is that possible?"

At this moment, both the Star Lord and the Jade Eye Lord were utterly astonished.

A feeling suddenly arose in their hearts... This time, they were likely to return empty-handed!

In fact, if Yang Wu had been the one before he obtained the Nether Divine Armor, even if he had created a top-tier sixth-order secret technique, he would have lost at least 50% of his Divine Body if he had been attacked head-on by such a terrifying attack, and might even have been instantly annihilated.

However, after obtaining the Nether Divine Armor, he became quite adept at handling such terrifying attacks.

At this time, the Nether Divine Armor was still not complete. Although it did not elevate Yang Wu's strength by several levels like a complete Mechanical Flow Supreme Treasure, it provided Yang Wu with two major benefits: divine power amplification and material defense.

Among them, the divine power amplification instantly propelled Yang Wu's attack, which had barely reached the seventh rank, to the eighth rank, while the material defense could reduce the attack's power to one millionth of its original strength!

While the combined attack of the Star Lord and the Jade Eye Lord was incredibly powerful, it could only barely reach the ninth level at best. After being partially neutralized by Yang Wu's attack, which had already reached the eighth level, and further weakened to one-millionth by the Nether Divine Armor, it was naturally difficult for it to pose any threat to Yang Wu.

In fact, if it were the Giant Axe Supreme, even without using the Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order, Yang Wu would probably have a hard time withstanding the opponent's full-force attack.

After all, the Giant Axe Supreme had created a top-tier eighth-order secret technique, surpassing Yang Wu by two levels in terms of secret techniques. Even if Yang Wu wanted to use his secret technique to defend against the opponent's attack, it would be very difficult for him to do so.

But the Star Lord is different. Although he is powerful, the Strongest Secret Technique he created is only at the Peak Seventh Order. Although he can join forces with the Jade Eye Lord to unleash even greater power, the level of sophistication will be reduced again. It is naturally not difficult for Yang Wu to resist with his secret technique!

"Star, what do we do now?" Jade Eye Lord transmitted his voice to Star Lord, "The strength of this Time Lord is probably not much different from mine. With the strength of the two of us, it is simply impossible for us to kill this Time Lord!"

"To kill them, we'll probably need at least the teacher's intervention!"

"Indeed!" the Third True Master echoed, "The Time Lord's strength has reached such an astonishing level; this is not something that can be achieved simply by possessing Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order!"

It should be noted that although there are not many Sixth-Order Universe Masters in the Universe Ocean who possess Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order, there are still more than ten of them. However, at most, they can only unleash the top strength of the sixth order, barely comparable to the weakest Universe Supreme Being.

But now, the Time Lord has broken this rule.

"Could it be that he has already created a secret technique comparable to the Universe Supreme Being?" At this moment, the Jade Eye Lord was already somewhat doubtful. "Such a terrifying Universe Master is probably rare even in Ancient Civilization, isn't he?"

The God Eye Race, after all, had received some complete inheritances from Ancient Civilization, and therefore knew some of the hidden information of those Ancient Civilization.

"The Time Lord possesses such terrifying strength at the Universe Master stage; even compared to the Original Ancestor of yesteryear, he surpasses him!" The Star Lord, suppressing his shock, continued via telepathy, "How to conclude this matter requires discussion with the First True Master before a decision can be made!"

"Yes!" the Jade Eye Lord nodded in agreement, "How to resolve this matter should be decided by our teacher!"

It should be noted that when the Original Ancestor roamed the Universe Ocean, even the First True Master of the God Eye Race was suppressed and defeated. As for the other strongest beings, they could only flee in panic after encountering the Original Ancestor.

When the Original Ancestor was permanently suppressed by the Primal Universe, most of the Universe Supreme Being in the Universe Ocean secretly rejoiced and cheered, since no one wanted to have a powerful being by their side who could kill them at any time.

Now, Time Lord even more powerful than the Original Ancestor has appeared. How the God Eye Race should deal with this is indeed a question that the First True Master needs to decide!

Thinking of this, the two Star Lord stopped attacking Yang Wu, while their Divine Power Avatar left in the Miniature Universe went directly to the First True Master.

Within the Miniature Universe of the First True Master of the God Eye Race, the Seven True Masters of God Eye Race are gathered together.

"Gentlemen, the third brother has explained the whole story clearly!"

The First True Master, seated on the main throne, slowly said, "Let's all share our opinions on how to handle this matter!"

"In my opinion, since killing that 'Kong Luo,' our God Eye Race has not been able to establish its authority in the Universe Ocean for a long time. To the point that even the Primal Universe Human Race, a race with only one Universe Supreme Being, dares to challenge the prestige of our God Eye Race!"

The Fourth True Master of the God Eye Race spoke up, "So what if the Time Lord is incredibly powerful? Could he possibly be a match for our teacher? If all else fails, all seven True Lords of the God Eye Race will join forces. Surely we can kill that tiny Clone of his?"

"Indeed!" the First True Master also spoke up, "The fact that the Time Lord could unleash such astonishing power at that time might not necessarily mean he created a secret technique at the level of the Universe Supreme Being. Perhaps he simply possessed a precious Supreme Treasure. If my God Eye Race could obtain the treasure he possessed, our chances of Transcendence of Reincarnation in the future would be even greater!"

"Kill him! Let the fall of that Time Lord demonstrate to the many powerful beings in the Universe Ocean that the majesty of my God Eye Race cannot be challenged!"

"I don't think this is appropriate!"

Just then, the Second True Master of the God Eye Race suddenly spoke up, "With the current strength of that Time Lord, he is probably already powerful enough to possess the Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order. If our God Eye Race continues to send powerful warriors to target him, it will inevitably provoke the wrath of the masses!"

It should be noted that the First True Master of the God Eye Race alone already possesses top-tier ninth-order strength. If the seven True Lords were to join forces, their power would be enough to reach the tenth-order level.

With such strength, they could probably kill some of the Universe Supreme Being possess Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order, but the God Eye Race has never done so.

Because doing so would likely provoke widespread anger. Even if the God Eye Race were stronger, they would not be able to withstand all the powerful beings in the Universe Ocean, especially with the existence of the Skeleton Race Clan, their hostile race.

"Moreover, and more importantly, there's the sheer terror of the Time Lord himself! Even if we kill one of his Clone, he can still revive other Clone. Once he becomes the Universe Supreme Being, he will inevitably cause trouble for our God Eye Race!"

"Our God Eye Race is nearing its end. We're already being lenient by not causing trouble for the Human Race. Do you think the Human Race would dare to provoke us?"

In an instant, the incarnations of the Seven True Lords gathered in the void, each expressing their different opinions.

"Alright!"

The God Eye True Master finally spoke again, "It is not something that my God Eye Race can achieve by possessing just one or two Supreme Treasure of the Highest Order if we wish to transcend reincarnation. Since the Time Lord has already gained the strength that the Third and Sixth Brother acknowledge, let this matter end here!"

"Third brother, Sixth Brother, you two should handle this matter properly. There's no need to clash with Time Lord any further!"

"Good!"

"Teacher, I understand!"

Both the Star Lord and the Jade Eye Lord nodded in agreement.

This is the advantage of having strength.

In fact, for Yang Wu, as long as he demonstrates a certain level of strength, there is no need to crush all his enemies. It is enough to let people know that he is not someone to be trifled with!

After all, none of the powerful beings in the Universe Ocean are fools. If the gains are not proportional to the price paid, no one would be willing to do something that is laborious and unrewarding.
