Just as the Hong Alliance and the Monster Race -Bug Race Alliance were trying to win over the major powers of the Primal Universe and the lords of the universe, the Chaos True God issued a summons.
At the Chaos Temple, all the Human Race universe lords were present, except for Universe Master Mingwu, who was still in deep seclusion. Even Master Huang Jian and Master Qingdong were there.
When they first arrived, both of them had angry expressions on their faces. After all, they were just a hair's breadth away from that final step, and then they both showed up again!
Then, a solemn remark from the Chaos True God greatly eased the anger of the two men.
"The Island Master Shihua has formed an alliance called the Freedom Alliance, with himself serving as its leader. It has already gathered over 260 powerful races and many more ordinary races, totaling over 300 Lords of the Universe!" The Chaos True God surveyed the room, his gaze sweeping over the thirty powerful figures present, cold and sharp. "The Freedom Alliance claims to be all for the freedom of its races, opposing the tyranny of the Hong Alliance and the coercion of the Monster Race Bug Race Alliances."
The race possessing the strongest individual can be considered a pinnacle race. Of the Six Great Peak Races in the primordial universe, only three remain today. There were seven in the First Reincarnation Era and six in the Second Reincarnation Era. In the Primal Universe, races possessing a Universe Lord are considered powerful races, with some deeply rooted powerful races even possessing more than ten Universe Lords. Races possessing Universe Overlord are merely considered ordinary races, such as the Golden Horn Race today. As for weak races that only Universe Venerable —they are already doing well just to survive in the universe.
"Tch--" The Shadow Blade Master, sitting to the left of the Chaos True God, second only to the Darkness Demon God, couldn't help but laugh out loud, which sounded extremely jarring in the quiet and solemn atmosphere of the Divine Temple.
The Chaos True God ignored him and continued, "Influenced by the Freedom Alliance, the Three Mountains Alliance announced its separation from the Hong Alliance and its joining the Freedom Alliance Red Flame Alliance also split in two, with the Lord Lieyan leading a total of nineteen Universe Lords to leave the Hong Alliance and join the Freedom Alliance."
"Similarly, besides these newly joined forces, some of the Alien Race universe lords who were originally part of the Hong Alliance have also left the Hong Alliance and joined the Freedom Alliance. As of now, not counting the Ancestral God Sect and the Star Behemoth Alliance, the only remaining universe lords in the entire Hong Alliance are the sixteen universe lords under Liyan's leadership and the twenty-nine universe lords under Clear Jade Bamboo's leadership."
"What did the Ethereal Alliance say?" The Giant Axe Founder asked, his expression unchanged.
The Star Behemoth Alliance boasts the strongest being, the Starry Sky Progenitor, and twelve Starry Sky Behemoth with peak bloodlines are also extremely powerful. Including its vassal races, it has a total of forty-one Universe Lords. It is allied with humanity, which is naturally different from the Ethereal Alliance joining the Hong Alliance.
The Ancestral God Sect is no exception. Since the birth of the Primal Universe, the Ancestral God Sect has focused on protecting the operation of the Origin Law. Protected by the Origin Law, it was the strongest force in the Primal Universe for a long time, Three Ancestral Gods were all sixth-order universe lords.
In contrast, the Ethereal Alliance has now joined the Hong Alliance. Although they are forming small groups due to factional reasons, it is impossible for them to have an equal relationship with their allies.
"The Universe Master Yipiao the Ethereal Alliance has made it clear to me that the races to which he and other universe lords belong will not withdraw from the Hong Alliance. However, if ordinary or even weaker races want to leave, he will not stop them, and he hopes we will not stop them either." The Chaos True God spoke, his expression grim, but seeing the Giant Axe Founder's composure and even Ye Muxuan's laughter, his mood improved somewhat.
The Ethereal Alliance is primarily composed of the "Ice Eevee" race, a race of Ice Lifeform. The Universe Master Yipiao, the Universe Master Bingmiao, was the earliest and strongest leader of the Ice Eevee race, with strength comparable to the current Universe Master Youhou. This race has a total of four Universe Lords, making it quite formidable among powerful races.
"Chaos, besides the Star Behemoth Alliance and the Ancestral God Sect, how many Universe Lords does the Hong Alliance have now?" Peng Gong True God with a slightly trembling white beard, asked.
"There are sixteen Universe Lords with Liyan, twenty-nine with Clear Jade Bamboo, and nineteen with Universe Master Yipiao. These are the sixty-four new Universe Lords who have joined the Hong Alliance," the Chaos True God said, looking around. "As for the original Universe Lords of the Hong Alliance, seven have left, leaving thirty."
"Traitors? After this tribal war, leave it to me. Regardless of victory or defeat, I'll make them taste the bitter fruit." The Star Prison Master, clad in jet-black armor, suddenly spoke as he sat in the center of the stone table.
Opposite him stood the Bu Si Lord, clad in armor entwined with emerald green vines, who cackled with a sinister, hoarse laugh.
Count me in.
The Chaos True God's previously somewhat solemn eyes softened as he looked at the strongest individuals beside him and the sixth-tier universe lords, and asked, "Everyone, please share your thoughts."
Most of the Lords of the Universe and the Giant Axe Founder focused their attention on Ye Muxuan. After all, when everyone was in a somber mood at the beginning, he was the only one who suddenly chuckled.
"Muxuan, tell me your opinion." The Chaos True God also looked at Ye Muxuan.
"Although the Island Master Shihua is mysterious and possesses an extremely powerful Supreme Treasure Weapon, his strength is only at the peak of the eighth rank, roughly the same as Peng Gong's normal strength," said Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe. Peng Gong True God, would only be at the peak of the eighth rank if he didn't use the Qingyan Secret Technique. However, with the Origin Embryo Qianjun Staff and his Life Formation Disk palace, his strength could improve further. "If he didn't want the inheritance, didn't want to reach the limit of the Universe Supreme Being, or even Transcendence of Reincarnation to establish Holy Land Universe in the Wei Lai, then why did he remain unmoved by the countless forces and races that tried to win him over throughout endless eras? Why is he now forming this Freedom Alliance?"
"All he's doing is increase his leverage, using the pretext of helping Human Race to get more detailed information about our inheritance. If we tell him now and give him detailed cultivation experience, he can disband this nonsensical Freedom Alliance at any time."
The more than twenty powerful figures present all nodded in agreement with Ye Muxuan's words.
No matter how mysterious the Island Master Shihua is, he will eventually perish after three Reincarnation Era, leaving behind only a shattered Miniature Universe for future generations to observe and learn from. The only one in the entire Primal Universe who remains unmoved is the Mountain Sitting Guest, since he can travel to the Origin Continent at any time via the Jin Wang Palace and then reincarnate again. No matter how profound Duan Donghe's lineage is, only the Third Generation Ancestor reached the level of the Mountain Sitting Guest's previous incarnation. The latter had a sect as his backing, and in terms of various Secret Technique techniques and even Supreme Treasure, his collection was far richer than that of Duan Donghe, who only had a single lineage.
As for Duan Donghe's lineage, the only thing that Mountain Sitting Guest was interested in was the part about refining treasures, but that was all.
"If the Island Master Shihua had come directly to us to inquire, joining the Hong Alliance as a Palace Master and receiving a portion of the inheritance as the strongest lone warrior, I personally wouldn't mind. After all, he doesn't have a clan, so it won't significantly impact the territories we humans need. But now, he's using the formation of a Freedom Alliance to take advantage of our misfortune? He's overthinking it." Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, looked at the Peng Gong True God opposite him and said, "My opinion is, Peng Gong, you have good relationships with various forces and are the strongest yourself, so your status is sufficient. You should talk to the Island Master Shihua slowly, gradually wear him down, and in the meantime, sow discord among the Universe Lords within the Freedom Alliance."
"More than two hundred powerful races, more than three hundred universe lords—how many of these races were mortal enemies before? And now they're making peace just like that? It's only because the Island Master Shihua is forcibly suppressing things for the sake of his legacy. For example, if the Monster Race Bug Race and the insect race said to us now, 'Let's stop fighting and make peace,' would you agree?"
