The New Human Race Master Shakes the Universe
In the virtual universe, at the Cosmic Galaxy Milky Way Headquarters, Tang Ping successfully became a true pinnacle figure in the Primal Universe. He was so happy that he almost floated away, walking with a swagger.
Before even stepping through the threshold, he shouted loudly, "Grandmaster! Grandmaster! I've broken through! I've become the Universe Master!"
Lord of Peng Gong, seated atop the Golden Platform, was sipping tea and chatting with a man in black robes opposite him. This tea ceremony, originating from Earth, had recently become quite popular among the powerful.
Hearing his grand-disciple shout, he paused slightly, his hand holding the teacup twitching.
Why is it that none of his disciples are well-behaved?
Back then, when Wind-Thunder broke through to the Venerable, he boasted that he would step on Feng Lei's shoulders to reach the top. However, he wasted countless years without making any further progress. Only then did he dejectedly put away his arrogance and revert to being the respectful and obedient disciple he once was.
And this grand-disciple in front of him, when he broke through to the Venerable level, was so obsequious in front of him that he didn't dare to breathe loudly. Now that he has just reached the same level as him, he dares to shout and yell in his Divine Temple.
Lord of Peng Gong couldn't help but wonder, if things continued this way, in a few years, when this kid's strength caught up with his own, wouldn't he be calling him "Old Peng"? And when he truly became the Universe Supreme Being, wouldn't he be patting him on the shoulder and calling him "Old Guy"?
Despite his inner grumbling, Lord of Peng Gong still got up from his seat and went to greet him.
There's nothing we can do about it; this precious grand-disciple is now the 19th Universe Master the Human Race, and the third Universe Master born from the Cosmic Galaxy Bank!
Although Tang Ping is currently slightly inferior to him in terms of combat strength, this kid's rate of progress is simply outrageous.
After some time, once he has fully comprehended the Chaos City Lord's secret technique, coupled with the Peak Treasure promised by that old fox, the Mountain Sitting Guest, and his Super Divine Body far surpassing others of his level, as well as his elusive Clone Secret Technique—
At that time, Tang Ping will surely become one of the most Peak Battle in the Human Race, and even in the entire Primal Universe!
However, thinking of this, Lord of Peng Gong couldn't help but frown again.
His grand-disciple's unruly nature was one thing, but he also happened to be practicing the secret techniques of the Chaos City Lord.
This presents him with two troublesome problems: First, while blindly studying other people's secret techniques may lead to rapid progress, the Chaos City Lord has yet to break through to the realm of the Universe Supreme Being. If Tang Ping continues down this path, wouldn't he be stuck at the threshold of the Fifth-Order Peak Universe Master, unable to advance any further?
Secondly, given this kid's impulsive nature, coupled with his title as the Chaos City Lord, if he goes out and causes trouble in the future, won't he be yelling at the top of his lungs, "The Chaos City Lord is here, all of you get out of my way!"?
The scene... Lord of Peng Gong imagined it and couldn't help but secretly curl the corners of his mouth.
Hehe~
A moment later, Lord of Peng Gong led Tang Ping into the inner hall.
Tang Ping stood tall and proud, finally able to look around with unbridled curiosity, wondering what he could pick up. After all, he was his Grandmaster's only grand-disciple; what belonged to his Grandmaster was surely his.
Then, his own light quickly fell on the powerful figures beside the high platform.
This was a middle-aged man dressed in a magnificent black robe, his skin pale to almost white, with several mysterious black patterns snaking across his cheeks. He sat there quietly, exuding no outward pressure, yet radiating an eerie and domineering charm—a kind of unparalleled freedom that looked down upon the world and declared himself the only one worthy of respect.
"Tang Ping, come here." Lord of Peng Gong spoke gently, introducing him, "This is the powerful being who traversed the Primal Universe and the Universe Ocean: the Lord of Nine Serenities! Looking across the entire Primal Universe, only he can easily kill other Universe Master!"
He paused, then added, "Nine Nether and my Human Race have always been on good terms. Speaking of which, you still owe him a huge favor."
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Nine Serenities laughed and said, "You, Peng Gong, are trying to flatter me again. I was merely showing off my skills in my own Nine Serenities Secret Realm; I'm nothing special."
Tang Ping's eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward, cupping his hands in greeting, "Greetings, Lord of Nine Serenities!"
Now that he is the Universe Master, on par with the Lord of Nine Serenities, he naturally doesn't need to be overly obsequious. However, he still understands the proper etiquette of respecting the strong.
The Lord of Nine Serenities looked at him with some emotion and slowly said, "Young Brother Tang Ping, your progress is truly astonishing. Do you remember? Back then, Peng Gong specifically sought out me for the blood of World Lord Rank for your sake. It's only been a little over ten thousand years, hasn't it?"
Over ten thousand years, he rose from the World Lord Rank all the way to the Universe Master!
When Peng Gong first brought this news, the Lord of Nine Serenities thought he was joking. Such an incredible cultivation speed was unprecedented in the Universe Ocean, spanning billions of years, and most likely will remain so.
You must understand, in the eyes of these ancient monsters who have lived for countless years, more than ten thousand years is probably just a blink of an eye. Yet, in that very short moment, a little guy who was once like an ant in their eyes has suddenly become someone who stands shoulder to shoulder with them!
"Lord of Nine Serenities, you flatter me." Tang Ping smiled modestly. "I still have a long way to go." He then changed the subject, asking curiously, "But you've come all this way today, perhaps to ask me to repay that favor?"
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Nine Serenities couldn't help but smile, "You humans, you just love to be humble. You say you can't, but..."
"Even if they can't beat you, or only have a smattering of knowledge, who knows how arrogant they might be."
He waved his hand, a sly glint in his eyes. "However, I must keep this favor in mind. You can advance to the level of Universe Master in just over ten thousand years. If you can become the Universe Supreme Being in the future, or even transcend reincarnation, then I'll have struck it rich!"
"Oh?" Tang Ping was slightly taken aback, then raised an eyebrow thoughtfully. "So, you came here this time because you don't want me to expose the secret of the Nether Sea Clone?"
He could understand that. After all, the Nether Sea Clone was one of the most domineering and terrifying Clone Secret Technique below the level of Primal Universe Lord.
As long as Soul Will are strong enough, and one is skilled in the art of self-destruction, possessing Nether Sea Clone is practically equivalent to immortality!
If he were to reveal this secret to the public, the Lord of Nine Serenities would likely be entangled by those old guys from the top powers, and would be driven crazy by their annoyance.
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Nine Serenities suddenly threw his head back and laughed, full of smugness and unparalleled domineering power. "Tang Ping! Do you think that, whether in the Primal Universe or the vast Universe Ocean, I have anything to fear?! In this world, I can choose who to give opportunities to, and who not to give opportunities to, and no one can force me to do so!"
Tang Ping immediately gave a thumbs up and praised without reservation, "Lord of Nine Serenities, amazing!"
Awesome! That's the style of a true champion!
He clenched his fist secretly, his heart filled with boundless pride. One day in the future, he would definitely be just as domineering! At that time, he would directly smash through the strongholds of the Zerg, the Monster Race, and the Crystal Race, and "play" with whoever he wanted, displaying his mighty power!
"Hahaha!" The Lord of Nine Serenities laughed again, but then shook his head. "It's not as exaggerated as you think. To be honest, the Universe Supreme Being from your Six Peak Races have all come to me with Supreme Treasure, wanting to exchange for the blood of the Nether Sea Clone, attempting to cultivate Universe Master with a great divine body."
He changed the subject, saying jokingly, "In the parlance of your human games, we, the Nether Sea Clan, are the perfect answer!"
Tang Ping's eyes lit up as he listened, but then the Lord of Nine Serenities abruptly changed the subject, his face full of helplessness. "But from the distant past to the present, billions of years have passed, and those old guys have spent countless resources, yet they haven't even cultivated a single Universe Master, or even Venerable One!"
In the end, they simply gave up. Even more ridiculous, that old man from the Prison Race kept yelling that it was a version trap and that he should lose money!
Tang Ping was startled and fell into deep thought.
Thinking about it carefully, that really is the case!
First of all, the ability to create a clone is an extremely precious opportunity. Even some Universe Master don't have clones, like the Sky Wolf Master. Back then, Luo Feng's possession of the Golden Horned Beast was considered a medium-level opportunity by the Chaos City Lord, which shows how rare the opportunity to create a clone is.
Generally speaking, cultivators can only condense an avatar at the World Lord Rank. However, if they use their only avatar slot on the Nether Sea Clone during this crucial period of laying their foundation, it means that they will lack innate combat power. Although they will have an immortal body, their combat power will be far inferior to that of other experts of the same level, which is really a loss.
Of course, if one could have multiple clones like Luo Feng, that would be a different story.
Secondly, expanding the size of the Nether Sea Clone requires a massive amount of resources. Either one must spend countless hours searching for rare treasures in the universe, or rely on the Nether Sea Clone to slowly absorb and release cosmic energy.
While the latter is more reliable, it is too time-consuming and cannot solve the immediate problem.
Furthermore, the Nether Sea Clone greatly increases the difficulty for a Realm Lord to break through to the Immortal Realm. This threshold alone blocks 99% of cultivators. And most importantly, regardless of race, the probability of someone growing to the level of Universe Master is ridiculously low!
Even the Human Race, as one of the Six Peak Races, occupies 1008 High-level Universe Country, controls countless secret realms and God Kingdom, and has countless individuals. However, after countless years of accumulation, including Tang Ping, there are only 19 Universe Master!
In addition, in the Primal Universe, the limit of Gene Multiplier below the Universe Master is 100 times. Without the assistance of heaven-defying secret techniques, the Nether Sea Clone at the Venerable Realm could only reach a maximum of 300 times the genetic multiplier, and its divine body's maximum diameter would be no more than 10 billion kilometers.
The size of this divine body was not particularly rare in the Primal Universe.
For example, the Strongest World Tree has a divine body diameter of hundreds of millions of kilometers. For cultivators at the Venerable Realm, a divine body diameter of tens of millions of kilometers is actually enough. The Nether Sea Clone only provides a life-saving ability called "Resurrection Spring," and its contribution to the overall combat power of the race is negligible.
In this way, those top-tier clans expended enormous resources, only to ultimately cultivate a being that, while indestructible,
But with subordinates of Pingping combat ability, this deal is a complete loss no matter how you look at it!
However, those big shots would never have imagined that there was such an anomaly in this world, hahaha~
Virtual Universe.
Tang Ping was smug for a moment before remembering the important matter. "What brings you here, Lord of Nine Serenities?"
The Lord of Nine Serenities said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. After all, my Nine Nether Clan still has so many offspring. I can only let them earn more money. So, I came here this time, firstly to help you move your divine body, and secondly to discuss something with you."
I want to use your identity to have a good time in the Primal Universe. Then, my Nine Nether Clan's World Lord Rank will sell World Lord Rank blood to the public, trading it in units of Peak Treasure, or corresponding cultivation materials. Once a transaction is made, there will be no returns or exchanges.
Of course, you are not allowed to conduct any transactions with outsiders during this process. After the deal is completed, I will give you 20% of the profits.
Tang Ping smiled, "Of course, then thank you for your care Lord of Nine Serenities."
I made a small profit, feeling great!
Peng Gong also laughed and said, "Tang Ping, actually, according to what Chaos and I meant, since you have never appeared in the sight of the Alien Race, we originally wanted you to hide your identity and exist as the foundation of our race."
But given your personality, it's impossible to keep it a secret forever. Moreover, your appearance in everyone's sight will greatly reduce the price of resurrecting powerful individuals for our Human Race, increasing race cohesion and combat strength. Therefore, we have decided to officially reveal your identity to the public."
Tang Ping's eyes lit up.
Yay!
Now he can finally show off openly! Using fake accounts? That's something only weaklings do. From now on, he's the Lord of Peace and Joy!
Seeing his grand-disciple's beaming face, Peng Gong was somewhat speechless. This kid was already Universe Master, yet he was still so impatient. But thinking about it, it made sense. This little guy was only a little over ten thousand years old, too young. He would probably only become calm and composed when he reached his age and experienced real life.
"But don't be too hasty. Once you reveal your identity, there's a high probability that the Universe Supreme Being will be watching you. For your safety, it's best to wait until your teacher, Master Mountain Sitting Guest, sends you a top-tier Soul Defense Supreme Treasure to protect you, and then you can cultivate some soul defense techniques," Peng Gong continued.
Tang Ping's eyes lit up again.
Has Teacher Mountain Sitting Guest arrived yet?
Peng Gong nodded. "I didn't disturb you when you were breaking through, but now the Mountain Sitting Guest is already waiting in the Solar System."
Once you obtain the Supreme Treasure, refine it first, and while you're at it, cultivate the secret technique for soul defense. Once everything is ready, inform us of the location of your Nether Sea Clone. At that time, I, Nine Nether, Chaos, and Mountain Sitting Guest will help you relocate your divine body. I've already arranged everything."
"Thank you, Grandmaster!" Tang Ping said, moved.
That's the charm of the Human Race! Although there are occasional minor frictions, everyone is very united when it comes to matters of principle. Moreover, our Grandmaster takes all aspects into consideration, so basically, as long as he listens to us, that's enough.
How many such excellent Grandmaster are there in this world?
Loyalty!
The next moment.
Lord of Peng Gong continued with a laugh, "Tang Ping, now that you are the Universe Master and the pillar of our Human Race, it's time to consider adding more responsibilities to your shoulders, or else—"
"Huh?" Tang Ping exclaimed, "Grandmaster, I suddenly remembered I have something to take care of at home, I have to log off now!"
After saying that, he logged off.
Seeing this, Peng Gong was speechless once again.
This child!
"Come, Nine Nether, let's have a good chat today!" Peng Gong then happily poured tea for the Lord of Nine Serenities.
At this moment, he was truly overjoyed; the burden on Human Race had finally been lightened a bit. Moreover, this outstanding prodigy was his own grand-disciple—far more powerful than darkness and Chaos.
Hehehe~
