Top 9: Tremor Demon Ancestor

"The ninth place must be me!"

E Zhou, a lone supreme master of the universe whose strength was close to that of the Dream Demon Ancestor, felt his heart leap into his throat.

In all the trillions of years of his past, he had never been this nervous!

"If I don't make it to ninth, there's even less hope for the spots that follow." Clad in black armor, E Zhou stared tensely at the list in the starry sky.

Finally.

[TOP 9: Tremor Demon Ancestor!]

"Whoosh~"

Within the Demon Ancestor Secret Realm.

The gathered powerhouses of the Monster Race erupted the moment they saw the ranking.

Some were relieved, others dissatisfied.

"What kind of trash list is this? How could our Tremor Demon Ancestor only be ninth?" the Sky Wolf Master blustered.

"Exactly! This list deliberately placed our two ancestors at the very end; it's clearly targeting us!" the triangular-headed Lord of Mo Hu spat bitterly.

"It's fine, it's fine. At least we know two of our ancestors have made the list. Based on the reward the Dream Demon Ancestor received, the Tremor Demon Ancestor will now receive a Supreme True Treasure as well. With this, our race will have four Supreme True Treasures!"

Other more cautious Universe Masters of the Monster Race, such as the Lord of Annihilation and the Sinking Fire Master, thought with relief.

Of course.

They dared not voice these thoughts aloud, only chiming in to agree that their ancestors could not possibly deserve such a low ranking!

"This so-called Sky Screen must have made a mistake!"

"What Sky Screen? This is a dark curtain!"

"I want to see who the top eight are!"

In an instant, the great hall descended into chaos.

The Dream Demon Ancestor and the Tremor Demon Ancestor, seated upon their thrones, had no heart to stop them.

"Meng Cha, although the secret techniques I created are slightly stronger than yours, they are only at the ordinary eighth-tier level. Combined with my average combat talent, this ranking is actually quite fair."

The Tremor Demon Ancestor sent a telepathic message; his voice held a hint of helplessness, but he was not truly saddened.

He still possessed self-awareness.

"Hmph! This so-called Sky Screen had better be fair. If those who appear later aren't as strong as you, I certainly won't let this go." The Dream Demon Ancestor had a volatile temper and felt deeply displeased.

Even though she had just obtained the offensive Supreme True Treasure, the Gold-Shattering Spear.

It was precisely because of this that she wanted the Tremor Demon Ancestor to rank higher and receive an even better treasure!

"Forget it. This Sky Screen is truly bizarre. Even now, the Ancestor God Sect has remained silent. Plus, you did indeed receive a Supreme True Treasure; it is better for us to keep a low profile. Let's observe the reactions of other factions first. In any case, both of us have made the list—we haven't lost anything."

"Then let us wait and see."

On the other side, E Zhou's suspended heart finally plummeted...

"It's over, it's over!"

E Zhou's face was ashen. "If even Zhen Jiao only ranked ninth, there is no way I will make the list."

"Sigh, it seems I will have to steer clear of those two in the Universe Ocean from now on," E Zhou thought helplessly.

In the years prior, the Monster Race had relied on having two supreme masters of the universe.

Whether it was the Tremor Demon Ancestor, the Dream Demon Ancestor, or the Universe Masters beneath them, they had all been incredibly arrogant within the Universe Ocean.

Now that they had received rewards, their arrogance would surely be fueled even further.

Thinking of the days to come, E Zhou felt his future was shrouded in darkness.

He was far from the only one with such a feeling.

He was not the only one in the Primal Universe who had been bullied by the Monster Race.

At this moment, the Crystal Race Holy Lord and the Prison Race Devil Ancestor were the most panicked.

Although their territories were remote, they were at least contiguous, and the beings they birthed possessed decent talent.

With the Monster Race now gaining power, if they were to expand their territory later, they would inevitably target them!

Their own strength was already a notch lower, and they possessed not a single Supreme True Treasure.

As one side grew and the other waned.

They felt that their current territories might no longer be secure!

"I must find a way!" A sharp, piercing light flashed in the golden eye at the center of the Crystal Race Holy Lord's brow. "I must set aside our grudges now and consider forming an alliance with the Prison Race."

Swish!

The Crystal Race Holy Lord's figure flickered, instantly appearing in the void.

Coincidentally.

At this moment, the Prison Race Devil Ancestor also arrived not far away.

"Alliance?"

"Alliance!"

The ancestors of the two peak races merely exchanged a glance, and they understood each other's thoughts.

"Very well, then let us discuss the details of the alliance."

In the void.

The strongest of the two races began their conspiracy.

The Crystal Race and the Prison Race were, in fact, natural-born mortal enemies.

But at this moment.

They had no choice but to set aside billions of years of hatred, solely to ensure the survival of their races.

The same scene.

Was currently playing out in the Snow Border Alliance, the Misty Alliance, the Thorn Ring Alliance, the Nine Domains Alliance, and other places.

Previously, these alliances could only develop by huddling together because they lacked a universe supreme master.

Now that the Sky Screen had appeared.

The strong had become even stronger.

They had to huddle even tighter!

Otherwise, not only would they be unable to hold their territories, but they would likely face the danger of extinction!

"As expected, Tremor Demon ranks ninth."

In the Virtual Universe, at the highest roundtable meeting of humanity.

Founder Giant Axe said.

"I have clashed with Tremor Demon Ancestor in the Universe Ocean before. The secret technique he created reached the eighth-tier level, and coupled with his supreme attack treasure, the Domain Shattering Awl, if I did not go all out, I might not even be able to defeat him!"

"Fortunately, my speed was fast enough and my movement techniques were superior, so I immediately fled after trading one blow with him, preventing him from pinning me down."

"Tremor Demon's strength is indeed impressive. Now that he has received a reward, he is bound to become even more troublesome. Sigh..." City Lord of Chaos sighed in a low voice. "It seems we must carefully plan the future development of our race."

"Let us see what reward this Tremor Demon has received. Our humanity occupies such excellent territory, and we have produced so many geniuses over the long years; we cannot easily hand these territories over to others." Darkness Master said coldly.

"If those scum of the Monster Race dare to incite a racial war, then we shall show them what we are made of!" Even the usually composed Peng Gong Lord could not help but speak up at this moment.

"The territory that Original Ancestor worked so hard to conquer must certainly not be given away easily!"

Dragon Walk Master, Desolate Mirror Lord, and others also spoke up one after another.

In a racial war, one must not yield even an inch!

"This kid Tremor Demon has decent strength, to actually be ranked ninth." Old Beast God watched the list in the starry sky with great interest.

The level of the secret technique he had created was far higher than the other's, so he could remain calm at this moment.

"Hmph, that fool Zhen Jiao actually ranked ninth!" Beast Ancestor was very displeased!

Although his raw strength was slightly stronger than Tremor Demon Ancestor's, the margin was limited.

Now that Tremor Demon Ancestor and Dream Demon Ancestor each held two supreme treasures, even if he received a reward later, the gap would only widen!

And then there was that Old Beast God; Beast Ancestor felt he was being targeted again!

"This damn Sky Screen!"

At the same time.

The reactions within the Zerg and Machine races were quite calm.

Zerg Queen was very clear about the strength of her old rival, so she was naturally not surprised by this.

Machine Father God felt the same.

As for those solitary universe supreme masters.

Some, like E Zhou, had completely given up hope.

Others, like True Void Demon God, remained ambitious.

Because they were confident that the secret techniques they had created were stronger than Tremor Demon's!

Even among eighth-tier secret techniques, there were still differences in quality!
