After this battle, Chen Ao was confident he could create a Universe Overlord Peak Secret Technique, which would put his own combat strength at the very pinnacle of High Universe Venerables.
With the boosts from his E and R skills, he could become a Universe Overlord outright.
What separated him from Luo Feng at the peak of the Undying stage was their secret techniques.
Luo Feng had a Universe Master Ultimate Secret Technique, two levels above his Universe Overlord Peak Secret Technique.
A Universe Master Peak Secret Technique was roughly equivalent in power to a Universe Overlord Ultimate Secret Technique, hence the difference of two levels.
Two levels amounted to the difference made by ten thousand times genes.
At the Universe Master stage, when supreme treasures and genes were roughly equal, secret techniques decided everything. That was also why only secret techniques and Supreme Peak Supreme Treasures mattered in the later stages.
Supreme Peak Supreme Treasures contained the secret patterns of sixth-order secret techniques. Even someone unable to create a sixth-order secret technique could use a Supreme Peak Supreme Treasure to unleash its power.
In a single battle, Chen Ao established that his combat strength rivaled a Universe Overlord's, striking fear into countless Venerables.
The Venerables who had planned to hunt Chen Ao immediately abandoned their plans.
The deaths of ten intermediate and High Venerables told them that Chen Ao was not someone to provoke.
Surrounding and killing Chen Ao would require, at the very least, a combination of High Venerables and Universe Overlords.
Perhaps even one Universe Overlord would not be enough.
With a Domain Supreme Treasure, Chen Ao also had first-rate speed. If he could not win, he could flee. Killing him would take at least four or five ordinary Universe Overlords.
