The Giant Axe Founder is the only Universe Supreme Master among the Human Race after the Original Ancestor was suppressed by the Universe Origin. The Giant Axe played an indispensable role in preventing the Human Race from being wiped out by other races after the Original Ancestor was suppressed and allowing it to maintain its status as a top race in the universe.
It was because of his presence that other races dared not attack the Human Race at will.
He is the pillar of the entire Human Race in the universe.
Now, the Giant Axe saw its own reflection in Zhang Junbao. Zhang Junbao's stubborn and unyielding appearance was exactly the same as the Giant Axe's when it swore to defend the Human Territory to the death when facing the invasion and siege of Alien Race.
That is why the Giant Axe Founder was moved when he saw all the efforts Zhang Junbao was making to gain control of the Earth.
"Since when have the Human Race's high-ranking members become, in the eyes of Human Race geniuses, Alien Race enemies who invade their homeland and seize their treasures?"
Earth, a treasure capable of continuously nurturing geniuses, is comparable to Peak Domain-type Supreme Treasure. It is indeed justifiable to bring it under the control of the race. However, with such a forceful acquisition method, how will Earth's geniuses view the race if they rise to prominence in the future?
This is a matter of weighing interests. If given the choice between a genius like Zhang Junbao and Peak Domain-type Supreme Treasure, the human elite would unhesitatingly choose the Peak Domain-type Supreme Treasure. The significance of a Supreme Treasure to a race far surpasses that of a genius whose potential for growth is uncertain.
Although Human Race generally unite against external forces, no one will easily give up when it comes to their own vital interests.
Earth Humans Lineage extremely ordinary genetic talents, even ranking at the bottom in the universe. Yet, this group of people, simply because they were born on Earth, gave birth to four top geniuses, including Zhang Junbao.
If the most elite races in the Human Race, such as the Manka Star People, or the races of the human elite themselves, were nurtured on Earth, wouldn't the combined advantages of both result in geniuses who could easily crush Zhang Junbao and others?
Zhang Junbao and his three companions have been born for less than 200 years, which is very young even for Planetary Level, let alone Domain Lord.
The thought that they could cultivate countless top geniuses comparable to Zhang Junbao and Luo Feng, or even surpass them, within just 200 years was enough to excite these high-ranking officials.
Two hundred years is but a fleeting moment for these ancient and powerful beings; it is utterly insignificant.
The Giant Axe swept its gaze across the Human Race present, many of whom were excited. These people were all thinking about how to arrange for their races to enter Earth after they acquired it, so as to breed stronger offspring.
Some are even preparing to take the field themselves, as they are at least direct descendants of the Peak Universe Overlord, whose bloodlines are even stronger. If they also possess special souls nurtured on Earth, they might be able to add extremely powerful individuals to their race in the future.
" Human Race ultimately prioritizes self-interest; few will care about the lamentations of Zhang Junbao, a genius from Earth."
The greater talent he displays will only make them value Earth even more. Could a mere Domain Lord Level really betray Human Race?
The Primal Heavenly Mountain was not to allow people to pass through it, but to set it up as a lofty benchmark that no one could reach.
However, humanity does have monstrous geniuses; some unparalleled geniuses, appearing only once every tens of millions of epochs, have ventured into the Primal Heavenly Mountain.
After obtaining nine Law Core, Zhang Junbao used the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation to simulate the Universe Origin and even controlled the Space-Time Law Reverse Eight Trigrams Array, which was about to become a basic Law, and the Exquisite Jade he obtained on Viska Star was integrated into Zhang Junbao's soul, giving him the speed of Law Comprehension at the World Lord Level at the Universe Level level. His Law Comprehension was already comparable to the 16th level of the Heavenly Bridge.
Moreover, his soul has been constantly tempered by the Demon Venerable Luanshen, resulting in an extremely high Mental Power Amplitude. Once he uses all of his Mental Power Amplitude, his combat power will continue to soar.
Of the three gatekeepers, the Illusionist's influence on him is almost negligible. Thus, without the Illusionist's cooperation, even if the other two gatekeepers join forces, their effectiveness will be quite limited.
Because Tongtian Mountain is virtually impassable, Virtual Universe Company has set up special rewards to attract geniuses to take on the challenge:
Passing through the Universe Level Original Tongtian Mountain, one receives a direct reward of 100 million points upon becoming World Lord. The apparent value of 100 million points is equivalent to 100 million Hunyuan Unit, but its actual value is even higher. For an ordinary World Lord Level, this is an unimaginable and terrifying fortune. Keep in mind that an ordinary Immortal God is already quite wealthy with a few million Hunyuan Unit; 100 million Hunyuan Unit would make one an absolute super-rich World Lord.
However, by passing through the Domain Lord Level Primal Heavenly Mountain, one is directly rewarded with 3 billion points upon becoming World Lord.
If you connect to the Primal Heavenly Mountain through the World Lord, you will be directly rewarded with 100 billion points.
Earth, a planet transformed by powerful Alien Race, can continuously nurture geniuses, yet the Virtual Universe Company only offered 200 billion Hunyuan Unit.
Conquering the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, directly rewards one hundred billion points—undoubtedly an incredibly generous reward!
However, these rewards are not enough to attract Zhang Junbao. The seven divine cities he acquired in the Chaotic God Demon Domain are worth far more than these rewards.
Money alone could no longer interest Zhang Junbao; he needed more resources.
"To traverse Domain Lord Level Primal Heavenly Mountain, one needs the strength of the 16th level of the Heavenly Bridge. With nine Law Core and the Law Comprehension speed of World Lord Level, my current Law Comprehension gains in one day are equivalent to the comprehension effects of an ordinary Domain Lord Level in 500 years. The speed of Law Comprehension can be described as a thousand miles a day, or even ten thousand miles a day."
Zhang Junbao appeared out of nowhere at the foot of the Primal Heavenly Mountain. The minotaur, ape-man, and Snake Woman guarding the pass represent the three schools of thought: warrior, Mental Master Controller, and Spirit Reader Illusionist.
Upon seeing Zhang Junbao's arrival, the Snake Woman smiled seductively, "Your Highness Zhang Junbao, although you passed through the Tenth Layer the Heavenly Bridge right after leaving Chaos City, your strength is indeed remarkable. However, the Primal Heavenly Mountain is not as trivial as the Heavenly Bridge. Your strength is probably not enough!"
A formation plate appeared in Zhang Junbao's hand; it was the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation. This was a reconstruction he had created within the Virtual Universe Network, and it had already gained the Virtual Universe Network's approval. However, he did not use Law Core, but instead used a high-grade Immortal Origin Crystal as a substitute. Although the effect was significantly reduced, it was still sufficient as an energy core.
After all, the only real effect of the current array is the ' Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation ' secret technique used by Zhang Junbao. As for the even more terrifying ' Reverse Eight Trigrams Array ', Zhang Junbao does not intend to use it here. Right now, those who are paying attention to him are the peak experts of the Human Race, and they might be able to see some clues about the Reverse Eight Trigrams Array.
However, with the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation combined with Zhang Junbao's own ability to Control of Space-Time, he would be able to kill the gatekeeper.
Ignoring the clamor of the Snake Woman guarding the pass, Zhang Junbao tossed the array plate in his hand, instantly forming a massive Taiji Eight Trigrams Array behind him. At the same time, 365 level-two cores and 14,800 level-three cores enveloped the three guards, instantly activating the Control of Space-Time.
"What is this? Why can't I move?" Seeing Zhang Junbao make his move, the three gatekeepers were about to retaliate, but they found that they couldn't move their bodies at all.
Zhang Junbao's ' Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation ' could temporarily suppress even Marquis Immortal, and its power was even greater after Zhang Junbao's Law Comprehension was strengthened. It was simply beyond the ability of the three gatekeepers at the foot of the mountain to withstand.
A sword flashed by, and three heads flew up together.
He fought his way up from the foot of the Primal Heavenly Mountain, easily crushing the gatekeepers at the foot and halfway up the mountain.
Even the guardians atop the mountain struggled briefly, but were ultimately unable to break free from the constraints of time and space, and were helplessly killed.
Congratulations, Your Highness Zhang Junbao, on successfully conquering the Primal Heavenly Mountain!
The three gatekeepers were resurrected and congratulated Zhang Junbao. However, Zhang Junbao left without waiting for them to be resurrected.
"We've been created for millions of epochs and have never been challenged. We thought today would be the day to show the company's geniuses our strength, but we were instantly killed by Prince Zhang Junbao. What kind of nonsense is this?" The three gatekeepers looked at the empty space in front of them. After they were resurrected, they only saw Zhang Junbao's departing figure.
There were no cheers, no joy, not even a change in expression. These three were the guardians of the summit of the Primal Heavenly Mountain, terrifying beings who inspired fear in countless geniuses. Why did they show such disrespect in front of Zhang Junbao?
"Hahaha, Zhang Junbao Zhang Junbao has truly reached such strength. The Primal Heavenly Mountain is no longer a difficult task for him; he passed through it so easily."
"Last time he challenged it, he only made it through the Tenth Layer the Heavenly Bridge. In just a hundred years, he's cleared six levels. He truly deserves to be called a genius born from Earth!"
"From the time you joined the Virtual Universe Company until now, in just a few hundred years, you have conquered the Primal Heavenly Mountain, and are even more talented than Kedi back then. Giant Axe, after we take back Earth, we must develop Earth properly. Such a treasure cannot be lost!" The head of the Universe Galaxy Bank said to the Giant Axe Founder.
However, the Giant Axe Founder did not look at him. Instead, he stared at Zhang Junbao on the screen, lost in thought. It was already quite remarkable that Hong had appeared, but now it seemed that Zhang Junbao's talent was even more terrifying.
Zhang Junbao had already conquered the Domain Lord Level Primal Heavenly Mountain, but in the eyes of many high-ranking Human Race, all his efforts were utterly foolish.
It's like a rabbit showing off how delicious its meat is in front of a group of predators. Does it really think that as long as it demonstrates enough talent, the human leadership will value it and return the Earth to it?
The homeland of a genius is utterly insignificant compared to the greater cause of the race's future.
Zhang Junbao returned to Venerable Guiyi and, seeing the Venerable Guiyi's expression, knew that the Human Race's higher-ups were still unwilling to change their decision for him.
" Junbao, do you know that the more you display your talent, the more the higher-ups will realize the importance of Earth? In that case, how could they possibly ask you to return Earth?" Venerable Guiyi said with a sigh.
"Yes!"
"Senior Brother Gui Yi, I originally thought that as long as I contributed everything to the Human Race, the higher-ups of the Human Race would see my efforts and be willing to Venerable my ideas."
But now I finally see the reality of this universe clearly.
Without strength, what good is it even if we're Human Race? In the eyes of the higher-ups, I might have some talent, but without the corresponding strength, I can't speak to them as equals.
Venerable Guiyi noticed that Zhang Junbao was not discouraged at all; instead, he grinned at him.
" Gui Yi, please don't resist. I mean no harm."
"Kindness?"
Zhang Junbao's words left Venerable Guiyi somewhat bewildered. Zhang Junbao, a Domain Lord, was telling him, a Universe Venerable, not to resist?
Suddenly, Venerable Guiyi sensed a terrifying aura standing right behind him.
Who is it?
His fighting instincts compelled Venerable Guiyi to attempt to use a spacetime technique to escape the area, but he discovered that the surrounding spacetime had already been sealed off, and his Teleportation failed.
" Control of Space-Time, true Control of Space-Time, not a weakened version like Junbao's, but the Universe Master!"
Venerable Guiyi stared wide-eyed, his heart filled with shock.
How could Universe Master exist on Earth?
This is Human Territory, and all the Universe Master are at a high-level Human Race meeting. How could a Universe Master secretly come to Earth at this time, and be right behind him?
"Are you a disciple of Chaos?"
"Hmph! I'll spare your life for Junbao's sake. Stay put and don't move!"
A voice, seemingly from ancient times, appeared in Venerable Guiyi's mind, deeply shocking him. Recalling Zhang Junbao's words just now, Venerable Guiyi immediately understood that this new Universe Master was related to Zhang Junbao.
"Could it be that Junbao colluded with the Alien Race Universe Master in order to regain control of Earth? How foolish! Once he colluded with the Alien Race, even as a disciple of our master, he would be hunted down by the Human Race!"
" Junbao, even if you don't want your hometown to be forcibly bought, you shouldn't have done such a foolish thing—colluding with Alien Race! This is a crime punishable by the extermination of your clan!"
With his Venerable Guiyi could only send a telepathic message to Zhang Junbao, hoping that he could repent in time and perhaps, out of respect for the Chaos City Lord, there was still a chance for a change of heart.
" Gui Yi, it's not what you think. I haven't colluded with Alien Race," Zhang Junbao said calmly.
"Then what's the deal with this Universe Master?"
I'll explain it to you later.
The Venerable Guiyi saw a phantom appear before him, a powerful humanoid figure seemingly made of energy.
Who exactly is this?
" Junbao, I told you long ago, it's wishful thinking to expect the human leadership to return Earth to you because you're a genius. They only care about their own interests."
"I was too naive. From now on, it's up to you, Senior Brother Luanshen." Zhang Junbao bowed to the person in front of him.
"It's been a long time since I've seen those old guys, this is a good opportunity to have a good chat!"
Meanwhile, the high-ranking humans who had been keeping a close eye on Earth also noticed the unusual behavior of Venerable Guiyi.
Just then, a figure dressed in white with his hands behind his back appeared in the conference hall of the human elite.
"Hahahaha... Human Race, this is how Human Race treats geniuses! Is there really any point in protecting such a race?"
The appearance of the figure in white filled all the high-ranking human leaders with horror!
P. S.: I spent a long time in the bathroom today, really reflecting on life. Sorry for the late update!
There was a mistake at the end of the previous chapter; Zhang Junbao was going to enter the Primal Secret Region, and the place he should be venturing into should be the Primal Heavenly Mountain. (Corrected)
