Rumble! The trajectory of the swinging long staff generated countless streaks of Flowing Light, and the power of the laws surged crazily within them, destroying space.

Bang!

"Break!"

Facing this move, the Lord of Ashen Soul actually felt an invincible despair; his emotions were even affected, giving rise to intense negative feelings. Facing this attack was like an ant facing a towering mountain, making one feel hopeless.

However, as a Universe Master, especially one of the soul path, how formidable was his willpower? He instantly banished the negative emotions from his mind.

His four stout hands held a strange trident, gripping it tightly before thrusting it forward fiercely!

The power of this thrust was also quite astonishing, yet compared to the attack of Lord Peng Gong, the gap was like a natural chasm; still, he intended to rely on it to block the staff strike.

A supremely dazzling light appeared, surpassing a supernova explosion.

Lord Peng Gong used the Bamboo God Staff to execute a Universe Master strongest secret technique, containing boundless might.

The Lord of Ashen Soul, wielding the trident, was struck by this incomparably frantic attack. After being weakened by the weapon and further reduced to one-ten-thousandth by the top-tier supreme treasure armor, it still caused every fraction of his divine body to tremble.

Had they not been crazily suppressed by two top-tier domain-type supreme treasures, the sheer impact alone would probably have sent his massive divine body flying beyond the skies.

"Just this single attack cost me three percent of my divine power!" the Lord of Ashen Soul exclaimed.

One had to know that he was a special lifeform with a colossal divine body-standing about twenty thousand kilometers tall and spanning some two hundred thousand kilometers long. Just how much divine power it contained was unknown, but it was bound to be an astronomical figure.

He was truly shocked, knowing that the Universe Masters of the Human Race were supremely powerful, but he had never expected such might.

That was after using a top-tier supreme treasure trident to block the move, followed by stubbornly enduring it with a top-tier supreme treasure armor, yet he still lost three percent of his divine body.

"Although this move of mine is not my absolute strongest, it is still an extremely formidable one." This time, Lord Peng Gong had dispatched his strongest avatar, which was currently the strongest in combat effectiveness among his five Universe Masters.

"So strong!" Yang Hao felt the force of this move from the sidelines; if he had been any closer, the aftermath of the combat alone probably would have caused him to perish.

And this was not even Lord Peng Gong's most powerful attack, so one could only imagine just how terrifying it was.

"Peng Gong, use your strongest move." The Chaos City Lord did not join the battlefield, choosing instead to concentrate fully on controlling the domain-type supreme treasure to heavily suppress the Lord of Ashen Soul.

"Mm..." Lord Peng Gong closed his eyes.

To stand at the pinnacle of the universe, he had initially created two strongest secret techniques on his own, and subsequently roamed the Universe Ocean for endless years, enduring countless trials and expending boundless mental effort before finally executing the two strongest secret techniques simultaneously, converging their might into a single blow-how arduous that had been.

This move was what made him renowned across the universe; even when facing a Universe Strongest, he possessed the capital to escape. Within this primal universe, those capable of reaching this level were mere handfuls of defying monsters.

Just like the Chaos City Lord, who was also of the Human Race, though slightly stronger than him, their actual strength was relatively comparable. There was also the Lord of Star River of the Northern Border Alliance, who was likewise on the same tier as him.

"This move of mine: Falling Star," Lord Peng Gong murmured. Each time he used this move, it consumed no small amount of his own divine power.

The Lord of Ice Peak, Lord Long Xing, and the Lord of Flint watching from the sidelines immediately held their breath.

Although their strength was extremely formidable and they were considered a very powerful batch within the primal universe, compared to Lord Peng Gong, there was still a considerable gap.

"We get to see this move again!"

"The ultimate technique of Lord Peng Gong."

"Tens of epochs ago, relying on this move in the Universe Ocean, Lord Peng Gong... caused a Universe Master to fall, scaring the two observing Universe Masters into fleeing directly. You can consider yourself fortunate to witness it today," Lord Long Xing transmitted his voice to Yang Hao.

"A single move caused a Universe Master to fall?" Yang Hao immediately filled with anticipation.

Such true ultimate techniques were exceedingly rare to begin with, let alone within the primal universe; unless it was a critical moment, they would not be easily unleashed.

As Lord Peng Gong closed his eyes, the surrounding space unexpectedly grew dark, leaving only the ornate long staff radiating a dazzling glow.

Then the ornate long staff danced, a twilight glow flashed, and the one-hundred-thousand-kilometer long staff grew even larger, reaching two hundred thousand kilometers, instantly blurring at that moment.

Even someone as strong as Yang Hao could not clearly see the movement of the long staff.

"Whoosh!"

Carrying the weight of an entire universe, the long staff possessed boundless might as it smashed down fiercely.

Instantly, resembling a cosmic explosion, countless spaces were transformed into ionic fragments. After the gigantic long staff smashed down, it was not yet over.

Swirling the Bamboo God Staff in a circle around his divine body, Lord Peng Gong continued to smash it down.

This strike erupted with even greater might, surpassing the previous one, and at the point of impact, it unleashed an even more intense and dazzling radiance.

"Merely watching this ultimate technique has actually improved my comprehension of the laws!" Yang Hao's eyes flickered slightly, not expecting an ultimate technique to possess such an effect.

Bang! Bang!

The successive two attacks struck simultaneously in the blink of an eye. If calculated separately, both of these attacks were Universe Master strongest secret techniques.

Ordinary Universe Masters might not even possess a single Universe Master strongest secret technique.

Yet Lord Peng Gong had not only created two strongest secret techniques on his own, but had also successfully fused them together. Fusion secret techniques sounded simple, but those who could truly succeed were at the absolute peak tier of Universe Masters.

"No!" The Lord of Ashen Soul was terrified and afraid. He was a special lifeform born alongside the universe and had lived through a long, long life, but at this moment, he felt death approaching.

If it were an ordinary strongest secret technique, he could still rely on his massive divine body to resist, but in the face of a fusion secret technique, no matter how large a divine body was, it was nothing more than a sandbag, merely requiring a couple more attacks.

"Taking Lord Peng Gong's 'Falling Star' head-on has cost me one-third of my divine power!" The aura of the Lord of Ashen Soul had already weakened; he knew there was no way he could hold out until the powerhouses of the Machine Race arrived to rescue him.

"I have already lost one-third of my divine body!" The divine power avatar of the Lord of Ashen Soul communicated through the Machine Race's Virtual Universe with the alliance's Universe Masters and the Mechanical Father God.

The Machine Race possessed advanced technology and naturally had their own virtual universe; however, humanity's virtual universe technology was incomparably special, capable of covering the vast majority of space in the primal universe, whereas the Virtual Universe of the Machine Universe could only cover a single star sector, roughly equivalent to the size of the Qian Wu Universe Country.

"How can this be! Have they dispatched the strongest avatar of the Chaos City Lord?" a Machine Race Universe Master immediately asked.

"No, what they dispatched is the strongest avatar of Lord Peng Gong." The Lord of Ashen Soul simulated the previous combat footage.

However, the simulated footage could only replicate the physical movements, failing entirely to convey the vast might of the fusion secret technique.

"It's a fusion secret technique!" The Mechanical Father God saw through it at a glance.

"Damn Human Race, to actually set up such a trap. Instead of going to the Universe Ocean to roam, they come to the primal universe to put on airs."

"Well, who can blame the Human Race for having such high-quality Universe Masters?" a Universe Master could not help but remark.

Internally, the Machine Race was exceptionally united, yet the upper echelons of the Human Race also lacked excessive internal scheming; the quality of their Universe Masters was pretty much the highest among the myriad races of the primal universe.

"I am hurrying to the Primal Star right away. You quickly negotiate with the Human Race; the alliance will save you!" The Mechanical Father God had no choice but to set off immediately, as negotiation was the only option left.

"That human Giant Axe lacks Supreme Strongest strength and is not my match if we meet in the Universe Ocean." The Mechanical Father God thought to himself.

Yet as luck would have it, within the primal universe, the strength displayed by all strongest beings was identical.

This time, the losses were severe; a Universe Master had to be saved at all costs. Even if the price was heavy, for the sake of the alliance's unity, they had to rescue him with all their might.

The fall of a Universe Master would deal a devastating blow to the alliance's morale. However, the Human Race should be open to negotiation; killing a Universe Master would breed far too much animosity.

If the Machine Race and the Human Race mutually assassinated each other's Universe Masters, it would only allow the other two pinnacle races to reap the benefits.
