Boom! Boom! Boom!

In a mighty torrent.

The 93 Universe Masters followed the battle plan they had drawn up, heading for their designated battlefields under the leadership of the Human Universe Masters.

"The Human Race has finally made its move, too." Yang Yu, who had been quietly keeping an eye on the state of the Primal Universe, stepped forward to follow them.

However, with his aura-concealment technique, even Giant Axe couldn't detect him.

"The Monster Race will probably suffer a devastating blow this time. I just wonder what the state of the Primal Universe will look like after this battle."

Although he didn't care whether the Monster Race lived or died, much had changed compared to the original storyline.

Yang Yu had to keep a close watch and intervene if necessary.

After all, no matter how the Primal Universe changed, Luo Feng's growth couldn't be affected.

Because of his own foundations and his wariness of the Origin Will of the Original Universe, Yang Yu, despite his extremely high level, couldn't bring much of his strength to bear.

The coming World Beast Crisis would still have to be dealt with by Luo Feng once he had grown strong enough.

Half a day later.

Giant Axe emerged from an ancient-looking flying vessel, the God-Slaying Axe in hand, then swept his arm outward.

More than ninety Universe Masters flew out.

"Attack according to plan!"

Giant Axe swung his arm and issued the order.

"Yes!"

Peng Gong Lord, Darkness Master, Ice Peak Master, Desolate Mirror Lord, and Void Gold Master each led more than ten allied Universe Masters into the attack.

Under the sweep of the Universe Masters.

The Monster Race territory bordering Human Territory was being cleared at astonishing speed.

Whoosh!

A single large-scale Soul Attack.

All Monster Race lifeforms within several light-years ahead were wiped out.

With the next teleportation.

They covered another several light-years.

And so it went, several times.

Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor finally noticed them. They immediately brought five Universe Masters of their own race and forty allied Universe Masters to the battlefield. The rest were left inside Tremor Demon Ancestor's mini-universe.

They were preserving their forces, and also keeping the allied Universe Masters as "hostages" in case they turned against the Monster Race in the middle of battle.

A few seconds later.

Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor arrived at the battlefield.

Boom!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Eighty-one black vines, radiating boundless pressure, lashed toward the Universe Masters of the Human Faction as they swept through the area.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

Countless colorful threads appeared in the endless void, spreading in every direction and enveloping the Universe Masters of the Human Faction.

A sharp tail also pierced through them again and again, instantly sending Peng Gong Lord, Ice Peak Master, and the others flying.

"Demon Isle Vine, Dream Ancestor Domain, and the Domain Shattering Awl!"

"Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor are here!"

Recognizing Dream Demon Ancestor's signature Peak Domain Supreme Treasure and Tremor Demon Ancestor's famed Peak Domain Supreme Treasure, Giant Axe identified them at once.

"Hold your fire!"

Giant Axe's voice rang out through the void.

The Universe Masters of the Human Faction immediately regrouped and swiftly retreated behind him.

"Giant Axe, you're a supreme being yourself, leading a pinnacle race. Why would you launch a surprise attack like this? Where's your dignity as a powerful being?"

Tremor Demon Ancestor, a beast-like creature with a sawtoothed shell, spoke coldly.

"Dignity?" Giant Axe sneered in disdain. "What dignity is there to show an alien race?"

With the supreme treasure God-Slaying Axe in hand, Giant Axe stood tall and imposing, no longer displaying his former caution.

"Tremor Demon Ancestor, if you want your Monster Race to survive, then you and Meng Cha will hand over two supreme treasures and half your territory to the Human Race!"

Giant Axe's voice rang out across the stars, vast and resonant.

"Two supreme treasures? Half our territory?" Dream Demon Ancestor howled at once. "Why don't you just rob us?"

"That's exactly what I'm doing."

Giant Axe replied calmly. His rugged face looked nonchalant, but his eyes brimmed with confidence.

"Hmph!" Tremor Demon Ancestor was furious as well. "Giant Axe, you've gone too far!"

"Hahaha, too far?"

Giant Axe laughed. "Then let's settle this with strength!"

"Attack!"

Giant Axe roared. The God-Slaying Axe in his hand blazed with brilliant light, and armor extended from it, spreading over his entire body.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Darkness Master, Peng Gong Lord, Ice Peak Master, Void Gold Master, and the other Human Universe Masters, mixed among the ranks, immediately led the allied Universe Masters behind them into battle.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant.

Several streaks of fierce light swept toward Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor, tens of millions of kilometers away.

"Hmph!"

Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor also ordered the Universe Masters beside them to strike back.

Rumble!

In the next moment.

The combined attacks of the two sides collided.

As tremendous energy erupted, the fragile Primal Universe was as easily blasted through as a piece of tofu, leaving behind a black hole a million kilometers across.

The surging energy tore open space fissures stretching tens of millions of kilometers, directly destroying countless nearby star systems.

Fortunately, this was the Monster Race's core territory. The star systems destroyed and the lifeforms killed by the shockwaves all belonged to the Monster Race.

But then Giant Axe and the other Human Universe Masters realized something.

Wouldn't this territory belong to the Human Race after the battle?

They were instantly heartbroken.

The Monster Race could die for all they cared, but it was a shame to destroy those life-bearing planets.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The Monster Race had only half as many Universe Masters. This one collision was enough for the Human side to shatter their formation.

Seeing this, Tremor Demon Ancestor and Dream Demon Ancestor hurriedly activated their Domain-type Supreme Treasures, intending to gather everyone and prevent Giant Axe from swallowing them up and suppressing them as the Beast Ancestor and Zerg Queen had done.

There were already very few Universe Masters left in the Monster Race camp. If more of them were swallowed up, it would truly be over.

But then—

Two fiercely sharp axe lights appeared.

They shattered Dream Ancestor Domain, sent the Domain Shattering Awl flying, and continued on with undiminished force, striking the immense bodies of Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor.

Bang! Bang!

In an instant.

Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor were knocked off balance.

Whoosh!

Giant Axe appeared behind the axe lights.

He then activated the palace-type supreme treasure, the Void-Breaking Boat, and began to suck them in!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The Monster Race Universe Masters, scattered by the tremendous attacks, still hadn't figured out what was happening when they felt a colossal suction force pulling at them.

"Ahhh!!!"

Unlike the Zerg Queen, who combined illusions with suction, Giant Axe wasn't skilled in Soul Attacks. But his level was high enough, and the Void-Breaking Boat was powerful enough.

So, as Giant Axe burned his divine power to activate it, the Universe Masters' formation had already been broken. Unable to join forces to resist, they were doomed to a grim fate!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Under the irresistible suction force.

The Monster Race Universe Masters and the allied Universe Masters who had joined them were swallowed and suppressed one after another!

"Stop!!!"

Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor felt their hearts bleed!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The two of them unleashed their full strength without regard for the consequences, doing everything they could to gather the Universe Masters around them.

Only after Giant Axe had collected even the Universe Masters farther away from Dream Demon Ancestor and Tremor Demon Ancestor did he finally stop.

"Giant Axe! Don't push us too far!"

Dream Demon Ancestor looked at the Universe Masters reduced to a mere handful—barely a dozen—and trembled with such anguish that it shook her very soul!
