TOP6 Appears, Countless Races Face Difficult Choices

As the entire Primal Universe fell into a state of shock over the Eternal Pearl obtained by the Zerg Queen, the rankings in the starry sky continued to reorganize at a constant pace.

[TOP 6: Beast Ancestor.]

"Hahaha, I am sixth!" The Beast Ancestor, who had been nervously watching the Sky Screen from the void, shouted in excitement. "The previous reward for the Queen was so good; what will my reward be?"

At this moment, the Beast Ancestor felt that the reorganization of the text on the Sky Screen was agonizingly slow!

But there was nothing he could do. He had employed many methods, yet he was completely unable to influence the Sky Screen in the slightest, so he could only wait quietly.

Monster Race Secret Realm.

"It's over!"

"He is number six!"

Upon seeing this result, the Dream Demon Ancestor and the Tremor Demon Ancestor exchanged glances, both seeing panic in the other's eyes.

Admittedly, both of them now possessed supreme true treasure armor and offensive supreme true treasures, making them practically unkillable.

But they lacked domain-type or palace-type supreme true treasures!

Since their secret techniques were already slightly inferior, if there was a gap in treasures, wouldn't they just be treated as punching bags?

Thinking of the Beast Ancestor, whom they could once bully at will, now having a chance to turn the tables, they felt incredibly miserable.

"Forget it, at worst we'll just go to the Universe Ocean less often!" the Dream Demon Ancestor said angrily.

"That's not necessary. The Universe Ocean is vast; it's not that easy to run into him. Besides, if we act together and truly encounter that guy, with the two of us joining forces, it's hard to say who would win," the Tremor Demon Ancestor said calmly. "Also, the reward he receives might not necessarily be a perfect fit for him."

"Then let's keep watching. I hope this guy only gets a piece of armor!"

Virtual Universe.

"It's actually that old guy, the Beast Ancestor, ranked sixth," Founder Giant Axe laughed, his eyes showing no anxiety.

The other human Universe Masters felt the same. Clearly, none of them viewed the Beast Ancestor as a threat.

Back in the day, Founder Giant Axe and the Beast Ancestor were considered the two most low-key Universe Supreme Beings of the Third Reincarnation Era.

They weren't low-key because their cultivation realms were low. It was purely because they lacked supreme true treasures.

When there is no overwhelming gap in strength, any single supreme true treasure can determine the outcome between the strongest beings. It can also determine the rise and fall of an entire race.

However, compared to Founder Giant Axe, who had a race behind him, the Beast Ancestor was even more unfortunate.

As the first life form among the beast-type creatures to break through to become a Universe Supreme Being, he was backstabbed while guiding the rise of lives including the Monster Race and Starry Sky Behemoths!

Later on, he was bullied in turns by the Dream Demon Ancestor, the Tremor Demon Ancestor, and the Old Beast God... His life could be described as quite stifling!

Now that the Beast Ancestor had been reduced to a lone Universe Supreme Being, with no faction behind him and his own strength not being particularly outstanding, he naturally would not be feared by the peak races.

Nine Domains Alliance.

The high-level members looked at the rankings in the starry sky. By now, the face of the Beast Ancestor had been rendered.

Looking at the Beast Ancestor, who was covered in dark golden scales, dragging a long tail, and exuding a powerful, eerie aura, the Universe Masters of the Nine Domains Alliance looked at one another.

Suddenly, a Universe Master clad in ancient cyan armor said, "Although our alliance has many Universe Masters and the territory we occupy is not small, because we lack a Supreme Being to hold the fort, we are in a passive position whether in the Primal Universe or the Universe Ocean. Perhaps now, we can seek refuge with one of the lone Universe Supreme Beings on the list!"

"Lord of Nightfall, are you suggesting we invite the Beast Ancestor to join us?"

The Lord of Giant Rock, his entire body encased in rock-like armor, spoke.

The Lord of Nightfall, the Master of the Universe who had spoken earlier, immediately replied, "Why not? In the past, the Beast Ancestor lacked a Supreme Treasure, so whether we invited him or not had little impact on us. But things are different now. Since he ranked sixth on the actual combat power list, the rewards he received must be substantial. We can certainly show our sincerity and invite him to become our Alliance Master!"

"Haha, Nightfall, your brain is still as slow as ever," laughed the Lord of Juefeng, the leader of the Nine Domains Alliance. He was an exotic beast with a lion-like body and nine heads.

"Surely you aren't unaware of the deep-seated grudges between the Beast Ancestor and the Monster Race and the Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance? If he were to become our Alliance Master, wouldn't the Nine Domains Alliance just be used as his personal weapon? It is common knowledge throughout the Primal Universe that the Beast Ancestor desires to unify the Monster Race and the Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance."

"However, those three from the Monster Race and the Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance are not to be trifled with. They have many experts within their ranks; there are at least ten who could rival me alone! Nightfall, do you really think that when the fires of war break out between these factions, any of us will survive?"

As the leader of the Nine Domains Alliance, the Lord of Juefeng possessed immense strength, ranking as a Tier 5 Master of the Universe.

One-on-one, he did not fear top-tier Tier 5 masters like the City Lord of Chaos or the Lord of Star River.

But.

In a true racial war.

Who would fight you one-on-one?

Facing a siege, even with his peak armor and peak offensive treasures, he could not guarantee he would survive.

Hearing the Lord of Juefeng's words, the other Masters of the Universe in the Nine Domains Alliance fell into deep thought.

They were the pillars supporting their respective races. If they fell, their entire race would be annihilated!

"Hmph!"

The Lord of Nightfall looked on with disdain. "At a time like this, you are still worried about that? Do you really think that if we don't seek refuge with a lone supreme powerhouse, the Monster Race, the Insect Race, the Machine Race, or even the humans will let us off?"

"The territory suitable for reproduction and survival in the Primal Universe is limited. In the past, we could live in peace because we had enough Masters of the Universe and were united! The cost for them to attack us far outweighed the gains, but now..."

Clad in black armor with two sharp horns protruding from his head, the Lord of Nightfall scanned the room. "The peak races that received rewards from the Sky Screen will inevitably expand their territories further. When that time comes, unless we become their vassals, none of us here will be able to escape!"

"Rather than becoming vassals and cannon fodder, it is better to take our fate into our own hands!"

The Lord of Nightfall's voice rose sharply. "Juefeng, it is time to put aside your ambition. For the sake of the alliance, we have no other choice!"

"The Beast Ancestor may not be the perfect choice, but he is far from the worst. If we want to survive in these chaotic times, how could we possibly expect to pay no price?"

"I think Nightfall is right," the Emperor Yan, covered in scales and exuding a formidable aura, suddenly spoke up. "The current situation no longer allows us to waste time. We must come up with a plan immediately."

A long silence followed.

"Sigh..." The nine heads of the Lord of Juefeng sighed in unison. How could he not understand this logic? "Let us vote. Those who agree with Nightfall, please raise your hands."

Swish, swish, swish!

In an instant.

Over eighty percent of the Masters of the Universe in the hall raised their hands.

There was no other way.

They had all considered the points Nightfall raised long ago.

In the end, they realized.

Without a supreme powerhouse to anchor them, they would face a hellish situation in the future.

"Then we shall invite the Beast Ancestor!" Seeing this, the Lord of Juefeng could only sigh helplessly, accepting the outcome and quickly adjusting his mindset. "To show our sincerity, I, along with Nightfall, Giant Rock, and Ling Meng, will go to invite him in person."

"No problem."

The others agreed immediately.

Their strength ranked at the very top of the Nine Domains Alliance, making them the most suitable representatives.

At this moment, similar scenes were playing out in other secondary alliances like the Thorn Ring Alliance and the Ethereal Alliance.

They were all debating whether to pay the price to invite a lone supreme powerhouse like the Beast Ancestor to anchor their factions.

Finally.

After intense deliberation.

These secondary alliances reached a consensus.

They decided to extend the invitation!
