The Assassination Fund
The vast universe, a sky full of stars.
Three thoughts pierced through the endless distance of space and descended upon this starry sky, vaguely revealing three majestic figures.
One is exquisitely beautiful, with a slender figure faintly visible, surrounded by endless light; simply looking at her figure is enough to enchant a Universe Venerable.
A huge, oval-shaped Black Sphere phantom was suspended in another location.
The last figure was a gigantic, Serrated Shell Beast that slowly emerged from the darkness. Its gaze swept around, and the starry sky around it was completely distorted into a vortex.
"It's rare to see you here, Zhen Jiao. Is Meng Cha still searching for treasures in Mount Liu Chong?" the huge Black Sphere spoke.
"You're certainly well-informed!" the enormous, Serrated Shell Beast also spoke. Their voices were instantly transmitted to the other two sides, as if the rule that the speed limit of the Original Universe was the speed of light did not apply to them at all. "Mechanical, you're the one who summoned my Monster Race and the Zerg. The Zerg Queen and I are here. It's time to talk."
"Now that everyone's here, Mechanical, just say what you need to say," the vaguely slender figure spoke up.
"Good." The Black Sphere spoke, "The little fellow named Lu Yan'an who has recently emerged from the Human Race guarded by the Giant Axe is improving his strength extremely rapidly and his battle record is quite outrageous. According to information obtained by our Machine Race, he was able to defeat ordinary Venerable even during his World Lord era. Now he has broken through to Immortality and is only one step away from becoming Universe Venerable. If we continue to let him continue like this, the Human Race will have another powerful existence. He also has the talent to Clone... In the future, even if we personally take action, it will be difficult to kill him. Therefore, we must eliminate him as soon as possible!"
"Of course we must eliminate them as soon as possible." The slender figure spoke, her voice filled with endless allure. "But how do we eliminate them? That's the core of the Ancestral God Religion! The Supreme True Treasure, the Five-Colored Aurora Lake, is no joke. Once that Supreme True Treasure is activated, even an ordinary Third-Order Universe Master would perish! Moreover, provoking the Ancestral God Religion would have far more serious consequences than the Human Race having another City Lord of Chaos! The Ancestral God Religion is truly the number one power in this Primal Universe. With the protection of the Primal Universe's origin, dealing with our respective races would be extremely easy for them!"
"I agree with what the Empress said. That human is a menace if he is left alive, but how do we eliminate him now? Conventional assassinations are unlikely to kill him properly," the giant Serrated Shell Beast Zhen Yao Zu also spoke up.
"None of our three major races wish to be enemies with the Ancestral God Religion, but why don't we just pool our resources and invite the Lone Ranger 'Universe Supreme Being'?" the Black Sphere spoke. "We have concerns, we have worries. But those lone wolves aren't afraid at all. No matter how strong the Ancestral God Religion is, it's only in the Primal Universe. These lone wolves are all roaming the Universe Ocean; they have no fear of the Ancestral God Religion whatsoever, so naturally they dare to directly storm into the Core Land the Ancestral God Religion Sect. Even if they kill Lu Yan'an, what can the Ancestral God Religion do?"
"The Universe Supreme Being Lone Ranger in the universe?"
The slender figure and the enormous, Serrated Shell Beast hesitated slightly. Although the offer was quite tempting, the cost was their primary concern at the moment.
"How should the cost be shared? Asking those old guys to help won't be something we can easily deal with!" the slender figure said. As soon as she finished speaking, the huge, Serrated Shell Beast beside her also stared intently at the Black Sphere, clearly quite concerned about this issue.
Sending the Universe Supreme Being Lone Ranger in the universe to the heart of the Ancestral God Religion to Human Race would offend both the Ancestral God Religion and the Giant Axe Founder! Although those few lone warriors might not care... inviting them would definitely come at a high price, which is almost inevitable!
"Give me three Top-tier True Treasure each! I'll go and fetch them!" the Black Sphere said.
"Three Top-tier True Treasure?"
The slender figure, the enormous, Serrated Shell Beast, hesitated slightly before saying, "Even if your Machine Race were to offer three more Top-tier True Treasure... a total of nine Top-tier True Treasure, it would only be equivalent to the value of one Peak True Treasure at most. One Peak True Treasure... to ask a lone, Universe Supreme Being to do that, they're not stupid, I doubt anyone would be willing, right?"
"Since I've said it, I must be confident! I wouldn't just run away after tricking each of you into giving me three Top-tier True Treasure, would I? Trust me!" the Black Sphere said.
"Alright, since we've come this far, I won't ask any more questions. I'll offer these three Top-tier True Treasure!"
"If eliminating the human Lu Yan'an can be achieved simply by sacrificing three Top-tier True Treasure, then what else is there to say? I agree!"
The slender figure and the enormous, Serrated Shell Beast both spoke.
"Very good." The huge oval Black Sphere vanished instantly, followed by the vague, slender figure and the enormous, Serrated Shell Beast surrounded by countless snake shadows, which also disappeared into thin air.
The starry sky has returned to its former tranquility.
The enormous oval-shaped Black Sphere God Kingdom Teleportation, and then, using Teleportation, it took half an hour to finally arrive at its destination. This place is an extremely remote region in the universe, more than 90 billion light-years away from the Human Race.
In the pitch-black starry sky, utterly dark, without a single ray of light, without a single star, there was absolute silence and coldness. This was the void of the universe. As the universe evolved, galaxies were born one by one, each some distance apart from the others. A large number of galaxies combined to form a "star field." The distances between star fields were even greater! And the distances between star regions were even greater.
As for the Human Territory, and other realms... there exists an incomparably vast, dark void.
There are even some voids in the universe with diameters of hundreds of millions or even billions of light-years, completely dark and silent. Even with the power of a Universe Venerable, not a single ray of light can be seen... This void of space is terrifyingly vast!
"Machinery, now that you're here, why don't you come in?" A voice came from the void of the universe. Although sound cannot travel in a vacuum, it was clear that the powerful were unreasonable.
The enormous oval-shaped Black Sphere paused for a moment, then slowly turned around.
Wow!
A dazzling, magnificent, and exquisite bridge appeared, seemingly cast from transparent crystal. The oval-shaped Black Sphere flew directly across it, landed on the bridge, and moved towards the end of the bridge. This movement caused a dramatic shift in space.
"Hmm?" The oval Black Sphere immediately checked its cosmic coordinates and was shocked to discover that it had moved tens of millions of light-years in every instant it was on the bridge.
Walk from one end of the bridge to the other.
The cosmic coordinates have shifted by 1.2 billion light-years.
At the end of the bridge is an exquisite pool where various fish swim.
"No." The oval Black Sphere looked back. The bridge it had crossed seemed to be only a hundred meters long, but it had covered 1.2 billion light-years. The pool in front of it was also several hundred meters in diameter... But with the oval Black Sphere's divine power, this was not a pool, nor was it any kind of fish. It was a powerful Domain-type Supreme Treasure!
"As expected of the Zuoshanke, he's truly generous! He casually throws out a powerful Domain-type Supreme Treasure. I wonder if this old fellow will even be interested in the nine Top-tier True Treasure we've gathered..."
The oval-shaped Black Sphere pondered silently, but instead of stopping, it moved along the pool to the flowerbed and lawn next to it.
On the lawn, each blade of grass... is actually an ancient tree, and even some of the decorative stones nearby are actually metal materials as large as stars.
"Sharp."
"This old fellow seems to have made further progress in his understanding of the laws, and his treasure-refining skills have become even more superb!" The oval Black Sphere moved, increasingly amazed. The Zuoshanke's residence was very quiet, resembling an exquisite palace and pool, containing a flying Palace-type Supreme Treasure and Domain-type Supreme Treasure, respectively. As for the other items, they were mostly various precious materials. Everywhere exuded the arrogance of a treasure-refining master!
