Inside the Hall of Gods, the Supreme Council continued.
"The duel between the Universe Venerable and the Aurora King is scheduled for three days from now. Anyone who wants to participate in the duel within three days can go to Chaos City to register for the Supreme Treasure."
"Let's set that aside for now. I've summoned you all here today to announce something important." On the massive black throne, the Giant Axe looked at the Chaos City Lord to his left and said, " Chaos, you will preside over this meeting."
"Yes." The Chaos City Lord nodded.
"Everyone!" The Chaos City Lord's gentle and majestic voice rang out, and the Hall of Gods fell silent.
"Every time the Supreme Council is convened, it is related to a major event that could affect the entire race." The Chaos City Lord began to speak, and no one dared to interrupt.
"This high-level meeting is being held because... the Primal Star is about to be activated!"
" The Primal Star is finally about to be activated!"
Almost all the Universe Venerable showed joy on their faces. They had already vaguely guessed that the Chaos City Lord was just waiting for the official announcement.
" The Primal Star is the Core Land of the vast universe, a place coveted by billions of races. It holds countless Supreme Treasure and opportunities. If you wish to obtain these Supreme Treasure and make a great contribution to your race, now is your chance!"
"Detailed information has been conveyed to you," said the Chaos City Lord.
A screen appeared in front of each throne, displaying information about the Primal Star.
"There are 10,081 Primal Star. They are special regions that revolve around the Origin Land of the Universe, and can be considered the closest place to the ' Origin Land of the Universe ' in the entire universe." Zhang Junbao's eyes swept over the data, and he pondered carefully.
"Since the Primal Universe had Primal Star, my Origin Clone should have one too. But I haven't discovered their existence. Could it be that the Primal Star was destroyed during the self-destruction?"
When the Origin Clone Universe and the World Beast perished together, even the Origin Consciousness ceased to exist, making it highly likely that the Primal Star self-destructed.
There are 10,081 channels leading to the Primal Star in the Original Universe. These channels are usually closed and only open once every long period of time, each time lasting for one thousand epochs.
After a thousand epochs, the passage will close, and any powerful beings who have not left will perish.
Some powerful individuals have attempted to remain within it using Clone or avatars, but all attempts have failed. Anyone still on the Primal Star when it closes will inevitably perish.
"All the powerful beings will perish after the passage closes. Could it be that they are absorbed and decomposed by the Universe Origin, turning into the most basic Cosmic Energy?" Zhang Junbao thought of the characteristics of the Universe Origin, that characteristic of forcibly analyzing all matter and classifying it into the origin. The Universe Master would absolutely not be able to resist it. Even if the Universe Supreme Master could resist it, the consumption would be enormous. In the long run, their demise would be inevitable.
" The Primal Star contains countless Heavy Treasure and Supreme Treasure. No one knows where these treasures came from. Countless powerful beings from billions of races in the universe fight each other on the Primal Star for these treasures."
After reviewing the information on the Primal Star, Zhang Junbao also saw another document, which concerned contributions.
Treasures obtained on the Primal Star can be kept by the individual. If not needed, they can be contributed to the tribe in exchange for contribution points.
The strength of a race comes from the contributions of countless powerful individuals.
" Zhang Junbao, the Aurora King, from the moment you joined the Supreme Council, you lost your status as a genius and were no longer entitled to enjoy a large quota of resources."
From this moment on, you are one of the strongest members of our Human Race, fully capable and obligated to contribute to the race. You can also exchange your contribution points for the resources and treasures you need.
"No quota? Heh, I didn't use much of the quota anyway. I just didn't expect that giving the race two High-grade Supreme Treasure would only result in doubt."
You want the dignity and face of the Universe Venerable? Well then, this time I'll let you show your true colors!
"Ten years from now, the Primal Star will open, and our Human Race will march into the Primal Star." After a moment, the Chaos City Lord spoke.
"Over the past ten years, everyone can form teams of powerful individuals, borrow treasures from those who are unwilling to go to the Primal Star, or find a master craftsman to forge Treasure Refining Supreme Treasure."
" Iron Fire, you must do your utmost during this period to refine more Supreme Treasure for the clan's powerful members," the Chaos City Lord instructed.
"Yes."
"As for the Aurora King..."
When Zhang Junbao was mentioned, the Chaos City Lord hesitated for a moment. He wanted Zhang Junbao and the Venerable Tiehuo to refine Supreme Treasure for the clan's powerful members, but given the previous doubts, directly giving the order might cause Zhang Junbao to resist.
"Would you be willing to forge Supreme Treasure for the powerful members of your clan?" the Chaos City Lord asked in a questioning tone.
" Chaos City Lord, I refuse." Zhang Junbao's refusal was quite decisive.
"My strength is meager; I only acquired these Supreme Treasure by chance. I am truly unqualified to refine Supreme Treasure for the esteemed Universe Venerable," Zhang Junbao said self-deprecatingly.
"Hmph, this Aurora King actually dares to have opinions about his clan! He clearly has the ability to refine Supreme Treasure, yet he refuses. Chaos, you've certainly made a good disciple of him!"
" Huang Jian, how I teach my disciples is not for you to question. So many Universe Venerable questioned his qualifications to participate in the Supreme Council, and now you want him to refine Supreme Treasure for the race. Would you be willing to do that?"
You wanted to use him to intimidate the powerful members of your clan, but you weren't willing to pay the price. Since that's the case, now you should figure out how to forge your Supreme Treasure."
"I forgot to mention, my disciple has an excellent relationship with the Master of Craftsman God. If the Master of Craftsman God our clan questioning him, it's hard to say whether the Master of Craftsman God will be willing to continue crafting Supreme Treasure for our Human Race."
"What? How could an Immortal God have a relationship with the Master of Craftsman God?" Lord Huang Jian and the others frowned slightly, feeling that this matter had become somewhat troublesome.
Other matters are fine, but Zhang Junbao is unwilling to refine Supreme Treasure, and no one can force him to do so.
" Chaos, this matter concerns our clan's powerful members obtaining enough supreme Supreme Treasure; you cannot let him continue like this!"
The Chaos City Lord did not answer, but simply closed his eyes to rest.
"Hehe, have you all forgotten that the Demon Lord of Sky Wolf the Demon Race Wolf clan once invaded the Craftsman God Star to kill the Aurora King, but was repelled by the Master of Craftsman God? If the relationship wasn't good, would the Master of Craftsman God have fought a great battle with the Lord of Sky Wolf for him?" The Lord of Long Xing beside the Chaos City Lord glanced around and said with a smile.
This time, the several Universe Master of the Virtual Universe Company were in unison. Zhang Junbao was, after all, a member of the Virtual Universe Company; the Chaos City Lord had recommended him for the Supreme Council. Now, a group of people were jumping out to question him—wasn't that a slap in the face to the Chaos City Lord and the Virtual Universe Company?
Currently, among the human Universe Master, only two people can make Aurora King Zhang Junbao obey: the Chaos City Lord and the Demon Lord Luan Shen are both resting with their eyes closed and no longer speaking. The remaining people suddenly feel at a loss.
" Junbao, by doing this, you've offended all the Universe Venerable of your entire clan!" Venerable Guiyi beside Zhang Junbao, advised.
"Senior Brother Gui Yi, people are already questioning my qualifications to sit in this position, and I'm still running around trying to forge Supreme Treasure for them? Wouldn't that be demeaning myself?"
Don't worry, I won't take away any of your Supreme Treasure. As for the others, that depends on my mood.
The Supreme Council was supposed to end after announcing the opening of the Primal Star, but now it was deathly silent.
Zhang Junbao's refusal caused all the Universe Venerable to fall into deep thought.
They needed to weigh the pros and cons of offending Zhang Junbao. A newcomer's rise was too fast; most of the Universe Venerable hadn't even had time to react.
" The Chaos City Lord is considering the well-being of his people and wants me to refine Supreme Treasure, which is not impossible," Zhang Junbao suddenly said, changing the subject.
"However, I have one condition: since you all think I haven't contributed enough to the clan, I'll just give the clan's genius a great fortune."
Three days later, I demanded that the betting battle be broadcast live on the Virtual Universe Network, so that all the geniuses and Immortal God in Chaos City could watch the battle live.
"The benefits of watching Strongest Battle for geniuses are self-evident."
Zhang Junbao's words shocked everyone present.
In the past, viewing the battle records of powerful individuals required purchasing them, and these purchases were quite expensive. Some Strongest Battle was enough to allow geniuses to suddenly comprehend secret techniques and grasp the Origin of Laws.
Now that Zhang Junbao wants to start a live battle broadcast in the Virtual Universe Network, it is indeed of great significance from the perspective of cultivating geniuses.
But for the defeated side, it was undoubtedly tantamount to a public trial, an instant death, and being nailed to the pillar of shame.
Winning against Zhang Junbao would be fine, but losing would be extremely humiliating for a Universe Venerable Universe Venerable lose to an Immortal God, even if they knew Zhang Junbao was a genius.
The loser in the betting battle not only loses the Supreme Treasure, but also loses all face.
Zhang Junbao's suggestion was either extremely crazy or he had absolute confidence in it.
" Junbao, your suggestion is to completely expose their shame!" Venerable Guiyi said with a wry smile.
"You're that confident? What if you lose? Your conditions include allowing the participation of Universe Overlord."
"So what if I lost? Is it shameful for an Immortal God like me to lose to Universe Overlord? At most, I'll withdraw from the Supreme Council and move to the foot of Mount of Gods. I don't care about these so-called honors," Zhang Junbao said with a smile.
"They're the ones who should be under pressure. Clinging to the glory of Universe Venerable, they need to be sent to Earth for a good trial. It's not unreasonable for me to help them temper their minds and receive Supreme Treasure return!"
"Not at all. The mindset of life nurtured by this Earth is truly terrifying." Venerable Guiyi said no more; he just wanted to wait and see the show.
"No! How can the battle of us, the Universe Venerable, be openly witnessed by those below!"
"Yes, even if we showed it to them, how much could they understand? They haven't even grasped the basic Law Comprehension. If they could understand even a tenth of the Peak Secret Technique Universe Venerable or Ultimate Secret Technique, that would be considered remarkable."
Many of the Universe Venerable present raised objections.
"Besides, instead of seeking the Aurora King to forge Supreme Treasure, we can head to the Craftsman God Star. The supreme Supreme Treasure forged by the Master of Craftsman God are the best in the universe!"
" The Master of Craftsman God seems to have a close working relationship with our Human Race, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to have him refine Supreme Treasure."
The existence of the Sitting Mountain Guest is extremely mysterious; many Universe Venerable have never even heard of his name. Even if they have, they may not know that he can refine Supreme Treasure. The Master of Craftsman God is, in fact, the number one Treasure Refining master in the universe.
"Those who want to go to Craftsman God Star to forge Supreme Treasure, I advise you not to waste your time. I can forge Supreme Treasure on Craftsman God Star. Do you think the Master of Craftsman God listens to you or to me?"
Threat— Zhang Junbao's words were a blatant threat!
It was only then that some of the Universe Venerable realized that Zhang Junbao had so many powerful figures supporting him.
"You only have two choices: either go to the Primal Star naked and fight the Alien Race powerhouses for the Supreme Treasure, or obediently fight with me and contribute to the future generations of your race."
"I just saw that as Universe Venerable, I have an obligation to contribute to my race. Watching the Strongest Battle can inspire geniuses and increase their speed of comprehending the Origin Law."
On this point, I think no one is more qualified to speak than me.
The Youmo Country Lord and the others wanted to refute this, but upon closer examination, they realized it was indeed true. Zhang Junbao had managed to rise from a newcomer in the Genius Battle to a level they could stand on equal footing with, or even reach, a height they could only look up to, in a hundred thousand years.
Who dares to say they know better than him how to cultivate geniuses?
"This is about cultivating geniuses for the future of our race. Everyone here is a high-ranking member of the Human Race. Surely you don't have any objections?"
Before the Chaos City Lord's Mansion, the Venerable Nine Swords shook his head, a smug smile on his face. He had also left a wisp of his consciousness in the Supreme Council, so he naturally knew what had happened.
"This is the opportunity you were talking about?"
"That's right. When I first entered Chaos City, I didn't have enough points to buy the battle videos of the King-level Immortal."
For geniuses at the Star Level or Universe Level, the benefits of watching Strongest Battle are immense; I am absolutely certain of that.
"These little guys should thank you." The Venerable Nine Swords looked at the geniuses who were looking around in shock.
"After entering the Supreme Council, I was told that I needed to contribute to the tribe. This is something I just learned, so don't be shy." Zhang Junbao laughed.
"You're not going to go easy on me, are you?"
"Of course, they are all Universe Venerable. If I were to show mercy, wouldn't that be an even greater blow to their pride? It just so happens that the geniuses from various Universe Country are all here. Wouldn't it be better to let them witness the power of their respective Universe Country Lord?"
"Are you sure you're witnessing strength, and not witnessing them being ravaged by you?"
Venerable Nine Swords knew that Zhang Junbao must have absolute confidence to dare to make such a condition. Now he only hoped that the Universe Venerable who were preparing to gamble with Zhang Junbao would have a high level of mental cultivation, otherwise they might easily get sick from anger.
"No way, I couldn't be happier if they were willing to guide an Immortal God like me in cultivation. Venerable Nine Swords, how about investing a little? The return is 100%!" Zhang Junbao tempted.
"You really are a devil."
"There's no other way. Being a good person makes you vulnerable to being bullied. I was forced into this situation."
Are you really confident you can win all of them?
"Uncertainty. In the universe, who dares to say they're 100% certain? But I have the courage to take a gamble."
"Alright, this set of Supreme Treasure consists of nine Ordinary Supreme Treasure swords, my signature treasures, comparable to High-grade Supreme Treasure. In the Race Treasury, it's worth 20 Supreme Treasure Point! I'm giving it to you; this time, I'll gamble on the true strength of the genius I've watched grow!"
Upon seeing the Supreme Treasure set before him, Zhang Junbao paused for a moment, then readily accepted it.
"20 Supreme Treasure Point, wow, I didn't expect you, Venerable Nine Swords, to be such a hidden tycoon!"
Zhang Junbao only now realized that not every Universe Venerable was a penniless wretch like the Ganwu Country Lord, burdened with a mountain of debt.
As the mentor of the clan's geniuses, the Venerable Nine Swords's strength is naturally not to be underestimated. His assets are comparable to those of ten Ganwu Country Lord.
"At the Supreme Council, the Universe Master have reached a resolution; they have agreed."
Zhang Junbao smiled and established this rule based on the noble cause of cultivating geniuses within the clan. Since they wanted sufficient contributions, Zhang Junbao would provide sufficient contributions.
This time, let them shine!
