Having obtained two powerful Supreme Treasure, Luo Feng made some preparations and set off for the Guyan Secret Realm to find the fifth metal plate, which was also the final test for him to undergo with the Mountain Sitting Guest.
On the race's side, the Freedom Alliance's overall strength has grown increasingly powerful, with the number of Universe Lords exceeding five hundred. In order to stabilize its vassals and allies such as the Hong Alliance, the Ancestral God Sect, and the Star Behemoth Alliance, the Human Race has already shared some of the rough experiences of some Universe Lords in their journey to becoming the Universe Supreme Being, as a sign of sincerity.
Of course, the remaining portion will be given to them after this great battle is over.
During this time, the Giant Axe Founder went to the Universe Ocean and traded five Supreme Treasure of the Universe with the Eastern Emperor Ancestor, represented by the Master Beizhen. Among them, the Supreme Treasure of the Universe of the palace type was none other than the Black Prison Tower. The remaining four were a spear, a suit of armor, a War Blade, and a psychic weapon, a sharp cone.
Of the current cosmic rulers of the Human Race, the Black Prison Tower is suitable for the Universe Master Anjue of the Giant Axe Dojo, the Spear is suitable for the Master Jifeng, the Spike is suitable for the Master Leimo, the War Blade was assigned to the Universe Master Di Hai, and the Armor was given to the Lord of Bu Si.
Several of these universe lords had previously made their names with Supreme Treasure of this type. For example, the Universe Master Di Hai, as the eldest disciple of the Master Ice Peak, got his title "Di Hai" from the High-grade Supreme Treasure War Blade "Dihai Blade." Now that he has become a universe lord, although he has obtained Peak Supreme Treasure War Blade from his clan, how can it compare to the Supreme Treasure of the Universe?
The several universe lords who were assigned the Supreme Treasure of the Universe are quickly getting used to them, and some have even been sent into the Giant Axe's Miniature Universe to activate Ten Thousand Times Time Acceleration, so that they can be used in actual combat as soon as possible. On the other side, Peng Gong True God sent a message that an avatar of the Island Master Shihua is going to the Qingyuan Secret Realm to discuss some matters with humans.
Upon hearing the news, Ye Muxuan frowned slightly.
The Island Master Shihua can no longer afford to delay and is starting to get anxious.
The Ancestral God Sect and the Star Behemoth Alliance, which chose to ally with humanity, have already provided their respective cosmic lords with rudimentary breakthrough experience—a testament to humanity's sincerity. However, even now, some representatives of their Freedom Alliance are still arguing with Peng Gong True God.
Therefore, he chose to bypass Peng Gong True God and directly negotiate with the Giant Axe Founder, Chaos True God, and even the Shadow Blade Master, who were the ones who could make the final decision.
Clearly, regarding the matter of succession, the Island Master Shihua also believed that Peng Gong True God could not make the decision, and that his voice was not even as strong as that of the Shadow Blade Master.
"Muxuan, the incarnation of the Island Master Shihua chose to go to the Qingyuan Secret Realm, most likely because he wants to talk to you. Why don't you go?" Inside the Peng Gong Divine Temple, the four strongest people and the Shadow Blade Master sat together. The Chaos True God looked at Ye Muxuan and spoke.
"I have no problem negotiating, but be prepared. If the outcome is not ideal, the Freedom Alliance will join the alliance of the Monster Race and the Insect Bug Race. At that time, they will suddenly have more than seven hundred Universe Lords and nearly ten of the Universe Supreme Being. They will definitely start a war immediately and will not let the situation remain deadlocked." Ye Muxuan said, also to let the Giant Axe Founder and the others be prepared.
Previously, the Machine Race's Universe Masters were all wiped out, and nearly ten Universe Masters from the two peak races, the Prison Race and the Crystal Race, perished. However, the alliance of the Monster Race and the Bug Race now possesses nearly two hundred Universe Masters, roughly the same number as the Human Alliance. The Freedom Alliance, having absorbed the vast majority of powerful races from the Primal Universe, currently boasts over five hundred Universe Masters. If the Freedom Alliance were to side with the Monster Race and Insect Bug Race alliance, their number of Universe Masters would surge to over seven hundred, roughly four times that of the Human Alliance!
And the Universe Supreme Being is likely to be close to ten.
The expressions of powerful figures like the Giant Axe Founder and the Chaos True God also turned solemn.
Currently, the number of universe lords and solitary strongest individuals in the Primal Universe who have not joined any of the three factions is extremely small. It is estimated that there are only a few solitary individuals without a clan, such as the Master Yuan'ao, and it is unknown whether there are even ten of them in total.
With such formidable strength, it is absolutely impossible for them to continue their stalemate with humanity. Giving humanity time to continue developing and achieving victory in one decisive battle is the only logical course of action.
"Alright, I will notify all the lords of the universe and the Universe Supreme Being to be ready for war at any time!" The Giant Axe Founder, with his disheveled hair, had sharp, cold eyes.
The Chaos True God and the others also had firm gazes, clearly indicating that they were all well-prepared.
In the Qingyuan Secret Realm, under the shadow of Palace Master Qingying Qing Shuang's Peak Domain Supreme Treasure, the Shadow Abyss World, a figure in purple robes with a face so handsome it was almost divine, made Palace Master Qingying feel as if she were facing a formidable enemy.
She's just a minor universe master; how could she possibly be qualified to face the Universe Supreme Being, even just an avatar? They could probably suppress her.
The Divine Kingdom Teleportation light shone, and Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, appeared, allowing Palace Master Qingying to breathe a sigh of relief. Her eight snow-white fox tails swayed contentedly. Facing the strongest individual alone, even an avatar, the pressure was immense.
No matter how strong the Island Master Shihua, with my teacher here, I'm not afraid.
Palace Master Qingying happily went down to arrange a banquet to receive her teacher and the Island Master Shihua, while Ye Muxuan's gaze fell on the Island Master Shihua, whose handsome appearance was so striking that it was impossible to tell whether he was male or female. Or rather, as a Special Lifeform, the Island Master Shihua had no gender distinction at all.
"Island Master Shihua." Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, greeted the noble-looking Island Master Shihua, who was dressed in a purple robe.
"Shadow Blade Master." The purple-robed figure spoke with a smile, and a joyful atmosphere permeated these cosmic spaces within the Qingyuan Secret Realm.
He could see the tension in the Palace Master Qingying's eyes, but the Shadow Blade Master showed no sign of nervousness. But that made sense; although the Shadow Blade Master was still the Lord of the Universe, he had already killed three or four of the Universe Supreme Being, so there was no need for him to be nervous.
"I didn't expect the Island Master Shihua to choose to meet here," Ye Muxuan said. "Qing Shuang has just become a Universe Lord and hasn't fought against a powerhouse of the same level yet. Her lack of experience has frightened the Island Master Shihua."
Outside, and even within the Hong Alliance, Palace Master Qingying is a renowned powerhouse, having even annihilated an ordinary clan when she was still Top Overlord. However, in Ye Muxuan's eyes, this little girl with pure eyes, an open mind, and Childlike Heart is still the same little girl who first appeared in Chaos City.
The Island Master Shihua's eyes narrowed slightly.
The Shadow Blade Master's words didn't seem to imply any willingness to negotiate.
"Shadow Blade Master."
"The Island Master Shihua has come here not simply to chat with me. If it were about exchanging cultivation experiences, Giant Axe and Chaos would obviously be more suitable than me," Ye Muxuan said slowly, his eyes lowered, interrupting the Island Master Shihua, "So, just say what you need to say."
"Shadow Blade!" The Island Master Shihua stared at Ye Muxuan, his brows furrowed. "My purpose in coming here is simple—all the major powers in the Primal Universe are watching the final choice of my Freedom Alliance. It can be said that whichever side my Freedom Alliance joins, that side will surely win!"
"I don't believe it." Ye Muxuan shook his head and said, "Since the Freedom Alliance has chosen freedom, why does it still participate in the war between humans and the Monster Race Bug Race?"
"Island Master Shihua, your choice to establish the Freedom Alliance, bringing along over five hundred Universe Lords, is simply to increase your bargaining power when negotiating with humanity? They are merely your bargaining chips. Whether they ultimately obtain the inheritance information, become the strongest, or even Transcendence of Reincarnation in the Wei Lai, is of no importance to you. Don't be so quick to deny this." Ye Muxuan looked at the Island Master Shihua and continued, "If you truly cared about this Freedom Alliance, you wouldn't have come alone. At least a few Universe Lords who could represent the Freedom Alliance would have come with you. You wouldn't have needed to meet just me, but the strongest of my Human Race. And you wouldn't have chosen this place; you should have come to the Primal Secret Realm."
"Aren't you afraid that my Freedom Alliance will join the alliance of the Monster Race Bug Race to fight against you humans?" The Island Master Shihua looked at Ye Muxuan and said, "The Freedom Alliance currently has 523 Universe Lords!"
"From every individual to every power, everyone has their own choices. They choose to become enemies of humanity, and naturally, they must bear the corresponding consequences. Since humanity has not yet chosen to relinquish its heritage, it naturally needs to face war, that's all." Ye Muxuan looked at the Island Master Shihua, "We are not children."
"Furthermore, Island Master Shihua, you've made one mistake. If you had approached our Human Race as the strongest lone individual, holding a nominal guest position in the Hong Alliance, or even exchanging favors for cultivation information, we would have considered it. But by forming this nonsensical Freedom Alliance using it to pressure Human Race, you've already placed yourself on the opposite side of humankind."
Even if a lone, strongest individual manages to transcend Reincarnation and establish a holy land, it cannot significantly impact the overall situation for humanity. However, powerful races that have conquered so many territories are now banding together to threaten humanity, believing that simply having a few more universe masters puts them on the same level as humanity. These are humanity's enemies.
"We first had the Original Ancestor, now we have the Giant Axe, Wei Lai we will have me, and many more geniuses. These races, Universe Supreme Being have never even appeared, are not qualified to stand before me and demand that I hand over my inherited information."
"Island Master Shihua, the internal conflicts within your Freedom Alliance are about to become uncontrollable, aren't they? These powerful races, which one of them doesn't have the blood of other races on its hands? Moreover, even if I give you some of the inherited information, they may not be willing to listen to you after receiving it. Don't forget one thing: in our human Virtual Universe, a lot of intelligence and information arrives faster than you imagine."
"The Shadow Blade Master!" Upon hearing this, the Island Master Shihua frowned and spoke, his expression somewhat annoyed.
"I still mean it: if you're willing to disband this nonsensical Freedom Alliance and negotiate with humanity as the strongest lone wolf, then anything is possible. But if you're acting as the leader of the Freedom Alliance, then there's no need for negotiation. You can't control the entire Freedom Alliance!" Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, looked at the Island Master Shihua and stated his final wish.
Ye Muxuan's goal was to force the Island Master Shihua to disband the Freedom Alliance!
