After the victory celebration banquet, the Human Race Universe Lord convened another Supreme Council!

This Supreme Council mainly focused on personnel appointments. The Human Race has gained territory in three hundred Star Sector, so naturally they must also establish three hundred Universe Country.

The Virtual Universe Company and the Axe Fighting Arena each appointed 150 Venerable to serve as Universe Country Lord.

Since these three hundred Star Sector were all ceded by the Demon Race, there are bound to be various Demon Race spies remaining within them. Therefore, the Universe Country Lord this time are all Venerable strength above the High Venerable.

Everything proceeded smoothly and according to plan. Moreover, many of the Venerable had served as Universe Country Lord during the Primal Ancestor Era, so this time they were back in their positions with ease.

However, whether it was fate or because the butterfly effect of the Gulanxiu was not strong enough, the Star Sector where the Star Domain Battlefield Mountain Sea Realm is located is still managed by the Venerable Ganwu of the Virtual Universe Company.

At this time, Venerable Ganwu was not yet the future Supreme Being of the Universe. As one of the more ancient Universe Venerable among the Human Race, Venerable Ganwu was kind and sociable, and had a very good reputation among the Human Race Universe Venerable.

Although he wasn't familiar with the Ganwu Country Lord, this tragedy from the original story still caught Gulanxiu's attention.

Meanwhile, in a remote star region of the Original Universe, the Mechanical Race Father God and the Insect Race Queen reunited.

The Mechanical Race Father God spoke, "Your Majesty! Our victory in acquiring two hundred Star Sector each from the Demon Race is a great triumph, but this battle also exposed our lack of high-end combat power. Compared to the Human Race and Demon Race Races, our two races have far too few Universe Lords! It seems our cooperation must continue!"

The Insect Race Queen nodded in agreement, saying, "Indeed! The Demon Race has two of the strongest beings in the universe, as well as two Supreme Treasure, making them the strongest of the four races. But I didn't expect the Human Race to also have a Supreme Treasure. Fortunately, it's only a soul-type Supreme Treasure, not a match for the Great Axe, otherwise Great Axe power would be even more terrifying!"

The Mechanical Race Father God's eyes shifted constantly before he said, "Actually, compared to the Great Axe, I care more about the Green Lotus Lord. The Great Axe's power is obvious; even if he's hiding something, he's at most Eighth Stage Combat Power. But the Green Lotus Lord is too mysterious, reminding me of that madman from the Human Race!"

"That madman?!" The Insect Race Queen's face showed shock and fear, clearly recalling unpleasant events.

The Mechanical Race Father God nodded and said, "The methods he used today are very similar to those of that madman, you know? One of my Mechanical Race's Mechanical Race Lords was once enslaved by that madman. It's unbelievable that a soulless race like ours could be enslaved! Today, the Green Lotus Lord used similar methods, causing our Steel Dragon Lord's mind to pause for a moment before he killed him. From the Steel Dragon Lord's death replay, it seems almost exactly the same as that madman's!"

The Mechanical Race is essentially composed of artificial intelligences. As the highest authority of the Mechanical Race, the Mechanical Race Father God can view all the data of all Intelligent Life that recognize Him as their master.

After the death of the Steel Dragon Lord, it had witnessed everything that happened before the Steel Dragon Lord's death and, through calculation, knew the strangeness of Gulanxiu's attack. Coincidentally, when the Origin Ancestor was alive, he directly broke the law that life without a soul cannot be enslaved, which is similar to Gulanxiu's methods this time. That is why the Mechanical Race Father God said this.

"You mean the Green Lotus Lord also has the potential of that madman?" the Insect Race Queen asked solemnly.

"I'm afraid that's the case!" the Mechanical Race Father God nodded and said.

"We absolutely cannot allow him to grow up smoothly. The Original Universe cannot produce another powerhouse like him," the Insect Race Queen said in a deep voice, her words revealing a chilling killing intent.

It's important to understand that the Origin Ancestor's power is different from that of others. Apart from the Origin Ancestor, even the strongest being in the Universe Sea, the First True Lord of Divine Eye Clan, would find it difficult to kill a single strongest being in the universe!

But the Origin Ancestor is different. Origin Ancestor most proficient Soul Attack has reached the Tenth Stage, and his material attack is also at the top of the Ninth Stage. The strongest beings in the universe who do not have Supreme Treasure Palace-Type Supreme Treasure or soul type have no chance of surviving when they encounter him.

It's only because he has a dozen or so weaknesses that he hasn't gone on a killing spree in the Universe Sea, but the strength he occasionally displays is enough to shock people.

Now that the Mechanical Race Father God has said that Gulanxiu has the potential to become the next Origin Ancestor, then he cannot be allowed to live.

The Mechanical Race Father God nodded and said, "He will eventually venture into the Universe Sea. At that time, you, Empress, will need to take action. You know I cannot use my Void Divine Power to launch Soul Attack, and the Green Lotus Lord possesses a Divine Body avatar. Killing him with a physical attack would be meaningless. Therefore, only you, Empress, can use Soul Attack to penetrate and eliminate him."

The Insect Race Queen nodded and said, "Don't worry! I will definitely not hesitate to act when I have the chance! Moreover, I can reveal his potential to the various forces of the First Reincarnation Era and Second Reincarnation Era. I suppose they don't want another invincible powerhouse to appear in the Original Universe!"

After thinking for a moment, the Mechanical Race Father God said, "The powerful figures of the previous two Reincarnation Era were all extremely arrogant. They won't take us seriously unless we suffer a loss, so we should still prioritize them."

They then discussed the specific details of their collaboration before parting ways.

At this moment, within the core territory of the Demon Race, the Divine Power Clone of the Demon Race's high-ranking members gathered together once again.

The Dream Demon Ancestor said coldly, "This time, my Demon Race has suffered heavy losses! Not only have we lost two Universe Lords, but we have also lost five hundred Star Sector, Human Race our equal. It's all the old man's and that guy from the Starry Sky's fault. If it weren't for those two, we might not have lost this time!"

Shock Demon Ancestor shook his head and said, "Actually, I had already prepared for the loss of territory. Although the loss was quite significant, it was still within my acceptable range. This time, the main problem was the Green Lotus Lord of the Human Race. If it weren't for him, my Demon Race race wouldn't have suffered such a great loss. I can't quell my hatred until I get my revenge!"

The Dream Demon Ancestor nodded and said, "Don't worry! There will be opportunities in the future! Once you create Peak Seventh Order secret technique and comprehend the third layer of the Supreme Treasure's runes, you will possess Peak Eighth Stage strength. At that time, let alone the Green Lotus Lord, even the two of us with the Great Axe can try to kill him."

Shock Demon Ancestor nodded, then after a moment remembered the important matter and addressed the fifteen Divine Power Avatar of the universe lords. "This time, our Demon Race suffered a great defeat. According to my agreement with the other three races, we must cede five hundred Star Sector to them. This matter must be completed within one million years. Sky Wolf, you will be in charge of the evacuation of these five hundred Star Sector!"

The Sky Wolf Lord hurriedly and respectfully replied, "Yes! Demon Ancestor!"

It looked exactly like a pug!

Then, the Shock Demon Ancestor said to the Heron Lord, "We have reached an agreement with the Human Race. They will set you free in a million years. You don't need to worry during this time; just focus on your cultivation."

The Heron Lord said somewhat dejectedly, "Yes! Demon Ancestor!" It already knew that the Demon Race had paid an extra hundred Star Sector to save it this time, so it felt a little disappointed.

The Dream Demon Ancestor comforted him, "It's not your fault now. We miscalculated. We didn't expect the Green Lotus Lord to unleash such a powerful attack. Don't worry! We'll definitely demand an explanation from the Green Lotus Lord when we have the chance!"

Gulanxiu was naturally unaware that he had been listed as a kill target by the Three Great Peak Races. Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much. With the Chaos Green Lotus, his Supreme Treasure, he was naturally invincible when facing the three races.

After the great battle with the Demon Race race ended, Gulanxiu originally planned to go to the Universe Sea to search for the treasure left behind by Fan Jiezi and the Star Sky Divine Dragon, but something delayed Gulanxiu plans.

Previously, the Ancestral Dragon Clone had found sixteen Venerable in the Cloud Summit Domain. Apart from the Human Race Universe Venerable who was sent back, the other fifteen Alien Race Universe Venerable willingly acknowledged the Ancestral Dragon Clone as their master.

These Universe Venerable all possessed strength above the High Venerable. After they recovered their divine power, they were all sent by the Ancestral Dragon Clone to explore the Primordial Star.

Over the years, although three Universe Venerable perished on the Primordial Star, the other twelve Universe Venerable also made some gains, even acquiring a few Supreme Treasure, though they were all ordinary weapons or armor, not worth much.

The Ancestral Dragon Clone was not particularly concerned about these Supreme Treasure, and simply let these Universe Venerable keep them to arm themselves.

But just as the three races were at war with the Demon Race, one of these Universe Venerable accidentally obtained a Crystal Token.

Although the Venerable did not recognize the token, he instinctively felt that it was extraordinary, so he thought of offering it to the Ancestral Dragon Clone.

Although the Ancestral Dragon Clone was not in the Original Universe, it still left Divine Power Avatar in the Cloud Summit Domain. Although it did not recognize the token, the Human Race's Virtual Universe System did!

According to information that Gulanxiu found in the Virtual Universe, that token was actually the Thousand Crystal Token, the most precious treasure that opened the Supreme Treasure Palace after the beginning of the Primordial Star.

In the ten thousand years since the beginning of this Primordial Star, the most thrilling event on the 10,081 Primordial Star was the Thousand Crystal Palace incident.

Around the 1000th year after the opening of the Original Star Passage, the primordial Universe Origin suddenly descended upon Primordial Star No. 03522. The primordial Origin of Laws metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, time, and space all descended upon this Primordial Star at the same time.

The overwhelming pressure made the entire planet seem to be trapped, making it difficult for any Universe Venerable or even Universe Overlord to move.

At the same time, a temple gradually emerged from the ground----

The process of emerging from the ground lasted for nearly a century, during which time all the major powers of the universe sent their super beings to this place. For a time, those surrounding that temple were almost all cosmic lords, and those Universe Overlord who dared to approach were all Top-tier Universe Overlord.

After a century, the Thousand Crystal Palace was fully unveiled.

A Black Stone Stele stands Thousand Crystal Palace, its surface bearing ancient runes that any powerful individual could instantly discern its message. The message itself is remarkably simple—

The Thousand Crystal Palace has appeared, and the stone tablet has materialized. Once the tablet vanishes, one or more Thousand Crystal Token will randomly appear at a specific time and location on one of the 10081 Primordial Star! There are a total of 32 Thousand Crystal Token —Thousand Crystal Token each resembling a crystal, their appearance is comparable to that of High-level Treasure. Once all 32 Thousand Crystal Token have appeared, the Thousand Crystal Palace will open. Only those possessing Thousand Crystal Token may enter; any other powerful individual who trespasses will be annihilated.

A year later, the stone tablet disappeared.

Then various rumors began to circulate, saying that the Thousand Crystal Token had appeared on various Primordial Star. There were countless pieces of information, making it difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood!

Previously, the Human Race Universe Lord was studying the Gene Blueprint in the Axe Universe, so he did not pay much attention to the Thousand Crystal Palace. After all, there are countless Venerable on the Primordial Star, but only 32 tokens. No matter how precious the Supreme Treasure in the Thousand Crystal Palace are, they are useless without tokens. It would be best if he could obtain a Thousand Crystal Token in the future, but there is no need to waste too much energy at this time.

Although the Supreme Treasure in the Thousand Crystal Palace are most likely the most precious Supreme Treasure in this opening of the Primordial Star.

However, according to past practice, the strongest Supreme Treasure that emerge from the Primordial Star are only at the level of Peak Soul-type Supreme Treasure. Although the Human Race does not have many Supreme Treasure of this level, they still possess a few.

Now that the Thousand Crystal Token has been delivered to his doorstep, Gulanxiu naturally won't turn a blind eye! If the Giant Axe Founder isn't there, then he will take the Chaos Green Lotus in. With the Chaos Green Lotus, he can escape unscathed even when facing the strongest being in the universe.

Therefore, Gulanxiu decided to wait until the Supreme Treasure in the Thousand Crystal Palace were settled before going to the Universe Sea to search for the treasures of Fan Jiezi and the Star Sky Divine Dragon.

After obtaining the Thousand Crystal Token through the Divine Power Avatar of the Ancestral Dragon Clone, Gulanxiu suddenly had an idea: could the Thousand Crystal Token be counterfeited?

The Thousand Crystal Token looks too ordinary. Although the commotion it caused when it was born was comparable to that of High-level Treasure, after it was born it just looks like a Crystal Token. It can neither recognize a master with divine power nor has any other function.

Its only extraordinary feature is that it cannot be destroyed. With Gulanxiu's current strength, even High-level Treasure can be destroyed, but this Thousand Crystal Token cannot be damaged in the slightest.

So Gulanxiu had an idea: could he find a master craftsman to forge a Thousand Crystal Token, and then have it accidentally obtained by Three Great Peak Races: the Demon Race Mechanical Race, or the Insect Race?

Given the resources of these three races, if they obtain the Thousand Crystal Token, the one who ultimately enters the palace will either be Fifth-Order Universe Master or the strongest being in the universe.

The inscription on the Thousand Crystal Palace stele states that the Thousand Crystal Palace will annihilate all trespassers without a token. This is a rule set by the Will of the Original Universe, and even the strongest beings in the universe dare not disobey it!

Does this mean that the Thousand Crystal Palace possesses the ability to annihilate the strongest being in the universe?

If a fake Thousand Crystal Token were created, wouldn't it be possible to kill the strongest person in the universe?

Of course, this was just a flash of inspiration from Gulanxiu, and it's still uncertain whether it can be implemented!

Putting everything else aside, simply replicating the Thousand Crystal Token is beyond his capabilities.

Moreover, he guessed that in the entire Original Universe, only that old guy Sitting Mountain Guest, had a chance of successfully replicating it. As for other forging masters, even the Craftsman God Lord might not be able to replicate it.

However, Gulanxiu had no relationship with Sitting Mountain Guest, and they even had some minor grudges. Gulanxiu had no way of asking Sitting Mountain Guest to refine treasures for him.

Moreover, this thing is clearly designed for treachery, so even Sitting Mountain Guest might not be willing to refine it.

Besides, Gulanxiu didn't have anything that could impress Sitting Mountain Guest. After all, as the reincarnation of God King, that old man had ridiculously high standards, and he wouldn't value most things in the Original Universe.

Therefore, this can only be considered as an idea; we can try it out if there's an opportunity in the future.
