Clearly, the Venerable Nine Swords had also received the message, and looked at Zhang Junbao with surprise and disbelief.
" The Universe Master of this race actually agreed to your proposal."
"Is it strange? It's not just you guys who have friends; I also have quite a few powerful friends I know." Zhang Junbao smiled and said seriously.
" The Primal Star is about to open, Giant Axe and the others are well aware of this. It's best to resolve the issues among humanity's high-ranking officials as soon as possible. Many Universe Venerable haven't participated in major battles for years, and it's hard to say whether they still have the same fighting spirit as before. He's just using me to practice his skills."
"By the way, grant a chance to the geniuses in the race, so they can understand the gap between themselves and the truly strong. No matter who wins or loses, as long as the Universe Master does not participate, it will not shake the foundation of the race."
As for whether those Supreme Treasure are with me or with other Universe Venerable, it doesn't matter at all. In short, the meat rots in the pot, and it's all in the hands of the Human Race, so that's a good thing."
"Haha, you see things very clearly. Regardless of who owns the Supreme Treasure, they belong to humanity first and foremost, and only then is it a question of where these Supreme Treasure belong. I'll be relying on you this time; perhaps we can even have a chance to become the Universe Overlord." The Venerable Nine Swords nodded and said.
The human Universe Master could naturally see that Zhang Junbao and the Youmo Country Lord had many opinions, but what did it matter?
The most fundamental Law of the universe is that the strong rule. No matter how reasonable the weak may be, if they do not have sufficient strength to support their claims, they are simply unreasonable.
This is a stark, ironclad rule of the universe: in the Original Ancestor era, the Human Race occupied most of the universe. Does that mean all those Alien Race were wrong?
After the Original Ancestor was suppressed, the Human Race faced numerous crises and suffered countless deaths before finally managing to protect its territory. Whose fault was it?
Who is right and who is wrong? Within the scope of the universe, how can it be summed up in a single sentence?
Ultimately, it all comes down to who can acquire more resources and strengthen themselves.
It's all about survival and the continuation of the species; justice and evil are meaningless.
After confirming with the clan that they were permitted to release the information, the Venerable Nine Swords didn't hesitate and turned to the group of Genius Battle who were still looking around, announcing, "You geniuses of this generation have a great opportunity!"
"The race will hold a grand wager in three days. The two sides are Aurora King Zhang Junbao and the Universe Venerable of the race, including your Universe Country Lord."
Because of Aurora King's suggestion, you will have the opportunity to witness the entire battle. You may not yet understand its mysteries, but experiencing firsthand the battle of Universe Venerable level or even Universe Overlord will be of immense benefit to your future understanding of the Law and breaking through your own limits.
The voice of the Venerable Nine Swords emanated from the City Lord's Mansion, spreading throughout the entire Chaos City. At this moment, the geniuses and Immortal God cultivating within Chaos City were all in an uproar.
Geniuses below the level of Immortal may not yet understand what this means, but the Immortal God, especially those who King-level Immortal, are all as excited as if they have obtained Supreme Treasure.
"My God, a race is holding a wager at the Universe Venerable level! Such a battle might not be seen even once in ten million epochs!"
It is said that even the most basic betting strategies contain a single, Supreme Treasure Point!
"What?! A single Supreme Treasure Point? That's worth over 3,000 Heavy Treasure Point! One Heavy Treasure Point equals one Heavy Treasure. Even for us King-level Immortal, obtaining a Heavy Treasure requires a desperate struggle. How could Universe Venerable be so wealthy as to wager Supreme Treasure Point?"
" The Supreme Treasure are irrelevant to us; we can only envy them. However, the Venerable Nine Swords just said that this battle will be broadcast live in the Virtual Universe Network, and we can watch it for free."
Normally, purchasing a battle recording of a Universe Venerable would cost hundreds of billions of points or even more, and that's just a demonstration of secret techniques. This time, it's a true battle at the Universe Venerable level, and there are quite a few of them—it's truly a blessing from our race!
The King-level Immortal within Chaos City were extremely excited. Apart from the two sides in the battle, they were arguably the biggest beneficiaries of this wager.
The King-level Immortal was trapped at the last step and could not break through to the level of the Universe Venerable was because his understanding of the Space-Time Law was never complete.
However, this battle is at the level of Universe Venerable. They can fully understand the secrets and insights of the Universe Venerable level by observing the battle process, and with good luck, they might even be able to break through.
Even if one cannot break through to the next level, it can greatly enhance one's understanding of the Space-Time Law. Such an opportunity is even more valuable than Ordinary Heavy Treasure for King-level Immortal.
After all, once they reach the Peak King Rank, the level of Invincible King, ordinary Supreme Treasure can only help them improve their combat power, but cannot assist them in breaking through their realm and reaching a higher level.
The King-level Immortal called upon their friends, preparing to discuss the Dao together while watching the gambling battle. An individual King-level Immortal might only be able to comprehend a few fragments, but together, they might be able to see a glimpse of the secret techniques of the Universe Venerable, which would be of great help to their understanding of the Law and their Creation Secret Technique.
The geniuses who had just entered Chaos City also received orders from their family elders: even if they died, they must memorize the entire battle. Every bit they memorized would greatly help their future cultivation.
This real combat process is even more effective than comprehending the Chaos Stele.
"A battle between the Aurora King and Universe Venerable? Wasn't the Aurora King the champion of the Genius Battle 100,000 years ago? In 100,000 years, it's hard to say whether we can even cultivate to the level of World Lord, yet the Aurora King already possesses the ability to Strongest Battle at the level of Universe Venerable and Universe Country Lord."
This is a true genius!
"I've made up my mind. I must become a powerful figure like the Aurora King, to fight against Universe Venerable during the Immortal era—how heroic!"
"You're not even as good as me. If anything, I'd be the second Aurora King."
"Hmph, don't think you're so great just because you're ranked ahead of me in the Genius Battle. The opportunity is right in front of you. After this, it's hard to say who will be stronger!"
Geniuses and strong individuals are secretly vying for power, because Zhang Junbao's words have sparked a massive cultivation frenzy across the entire Human Race.
The Venerable Nine Swords did Zhang Junbao a favor by helping him enhance his prestige within the clan. The powerful figures in Chaos City would secretly remember his words, for it was because of Aurora King Zhang Junbao's suggestion that they had this opportunity.
Zhang Junbao wasn't stingy either, saying, " Venerable Nine Swords, wouldn't you like to earn even more in this betting battle?"
"I'd like to too, but I've already given you my Supreme Treasure. I don't have as many Supreme Treasure as you," the Venerable Nine Swords replied helplessly.
Investing in a complete set of Supreme Treasure and expecting a 100% return is already incredibly impressive.
"This income doesn't require any investment from Supreme Treasure," Zhang Junbao said mysteriously.
"Oh?" Now, the Venerable Nine Swords was intrigued; no one could resist the temptation of Supreme Treasure.
"Battles at the Universe Venerable level are extremely fast-paced, and the secret techniques used are mostly at the peak of the Universe Venerable Peak Secret Technique, with some possibly even having comprehended the Peak Secret Technique of the Universe Master. For Universe Venerable, it's naturally possible to grasp some of these techniques, but for Immortal God, it's considerably more difficult."
"Indeed. Reaching the Peak King Rank and the Invincible King is one thing, but for ordinary Immortal God, it would be extremely difficult to even grasp a fraction of it." The Venerable Nine Swords pondered for a moment, then nodded in reply.
"Then why don't you explain it to them? I believe that with your strength, Venerable Nine Swords, you can easily master the secret techniques of ordinary Universe Venerable."
"Huh? You mean?"
"There are over three million King Rank experts in Hongmeng City. Even if each one only pays 0.01 Heavy Treasure Point, that's over 30,000 Heavy Treasure Point. Even if only 20-30% of the King-level Immortal choose to buy, that's still enough for three or four Supreme Treasure Point."
"This..." The Venerable Nine Swords listened with great interest. When did Heavy Treasure Point in tens of thousands?
"Although the betting battle was broadcast live for free, as Universe Venerable, it's reasonable for you to charge a fee for explaining and analyzing the battle process for other powerful individuals, right?" Zhang Junbao said with a smile.
"That's reasonable, perfectly reasonable. We King Rank experts often invite us Universe Venerable to explain secret techniques, but it's usually one-on-one, and the price wouldn't be this cheap."
A Heavy Treasure Point is worth approximately one trillion Hunyuan Unit. Inviting a Universe Venerable to explain a secret technique costs money, depending on the difficulty of the technique. For a powerhouse at the Peak King Rank, hundreds of billions of Hunyuan Unit, while a bit painful, are not something to begrudge.
The Venerable Nine Swords seemed to see a broad and prosperous road unfolding before him.
"This is just the cost of one battle. If you fight more battles, your income will naturally increase. You can decide the specific fees yourself."
"That's natural. Although I'm not good at business, I can still understand these management methods."
"I will also inform Venerable Guiyi and the others about this method. After all, Venerable Guiyi is my senior brother, and he has given me tremendous support this time. It is only right that I repay him in kind."
" The Venerable Guiyi is Universe Overlord, and a being close to the Top Universe Overlord. If he were to explain, he would surely be able to completely dissect the secrets of the Universe Venerable."
In this way, those Invincible King and those at the Peak King Rank might choose to listen to Venerable Guiyi. Venerable Nine Swords pondered this carefully.
This market is open. Zhang Junbao originally only wanted to tell the method to Venerable Guiyi, but he didn't expect Venerable Nine Swords to support him so much, so he must help him out.
Different powerful individuals require different levels of comprehension of secret techniques. Those who Invincible King are already Universe Venerable. Even though the Venerable Nine Swords's comprehension is stronger than theirs, it is still limited.
Other Immortal God, Immortal Army Lord, and Marquis Immortal- level immortals are the true audience of the Venerable Nine Swords. The number of these people is ten times, or even a hundred or a thousand times, that of the Invincible King. Even if he charges less, as long as the number is high, it will still be a considerable fortune.
Venerable Nine Swords understood why Zhang Junbao's friends still supported him so much after witnessing his duel with the Universe Venerable.
There are just too many benefits to following Zhang Junbao. A single idea from him is enough to earn Venerable Nine Swords several Supreme Treasure Point, which is the price of a Supreme Treasure, and one of the better ones among Ordinary Supreme Treasure.
Even ordinary Universe Venerable, who risked their lives in the Cosmic Secret Realm and fought against Alien Race powerhouses for thousands of epochs, might not be able to earn this much.
Now, the Venerable Nine Swords only wants as many people as possible to challenge Zhang Junbao to a duel.
After bidding farewell to the Venerable Nine Swords, Zhang Junbao entered Chaos City.
Inside the Chaos Ruins, the Chaos City Lord couldn't help but scrutinize Zhang Junbao closely.
" Junbao, are you serious this time?" the Chaos City Lord asked with a serious expression.
"Certainly."
"You've challenged all the Universe Venerable within your clan. The only three Top Universe Overlord might not intervene, but as for the others, it's hard to say. After all, the allure of the Supreme Treasure is too great," said the Chaos City Lord.
"As long as the Tian Shi Palace Master, Ancestor Tree Venerable, and Star Prison Demon Lord don't participate, there won't be any problems. I didn't even consider ordinary Universe Venerable a threat when I was World Lord, let alone now," Zhang Junbao said confidently with a smile.
Human Race has many Universe Overlord, but because humans are inherently ordinary life forms, most of these Universe Overlord are of average strength.
The three— the Tian Shi Palace Master, the Star Prison Demon Lord, and the Ancestor Tree Venerable —are all powerful Universe Overlord who have had several special encounters and possess the ability to Clone.
Under normal circumstances, the number of Top Universe Overlord in a faction should be roughly the same as the Universe Master. The Human Race has more than a dozen cosmic autonomous beings, but only three Top Universe Overlord, precisely because humanity's foundation is too weak.
At the Life Gene Level alone, they are far inferior to other races.
Sects like the Ancestral God Sect, which gathers a large number of Special Lifeform, have the most Top Universe Overlord. Some alliances that unite a large number of races, such as the Northern Xinjiang Alliance, also have many Top Universe Overlord.
As the most supreme Universe Venerable, they are all beings capable of rivaling the Universe Master in some aspect.
Zhang Junbao's words were extremely arrogant, even disregarding the entire Human Race's Universe Venerable, which surprised even the Chaos City Lord.
"It seems you gained even more benefits from the Mother Emperor Mystic Realm than I imagined."
" Senior Brother Chaos, although my Virtual Universe Company does not wish to use its power to suppress others, the Giant Axe Arena goes without saying, but why do the Universe Venerable of the other three major forces dare to join forces to try to suppress me?"
"Alas, you have a serious misunderstanding about the clan. This is the clan's fault. You have grown too fast and have reached your current strength with almost no special treatment from the clan."
Many Universe Venerable, even Universe Master, haven't even realized what's happening yet. If you want to gain their respect, demonstrating your strength is essential.
They're not trying to suppress you; this is how they react to any talented and powerful individual who might pose a threat. Newly emerging geniuses usually don't intentionally antagonize established powerhouses, but your current prowess has made them feel threatened.
"I no longer want to argue about right and wrong. Now that the Primal Star is about to open, once we enter, it will be a bloodbath. The race wants to use me to hone the Universe Venerable, and I'll just take this opportunity to earn some reward for my efforts."
"The tribe wants my help but isn't willing to pay me, so I have to find a way myself."
The Chaos City Lord remained silent for a moment, then looked at Zhang Junbao again and asked, "What are your plans?"
"Hehe, since the tribe doesn't provide any compensation, no matter how much I earn, the tribe can't expect me to contribute."
Honestly, now that I'm under the Universe Master, I'm not afraid of anyone.
"You want to use the Supreme Treasure that simulates the Universe Origin Law?" The Chaos City Lord frowned slightly. He knew that Zhang Junbao wanted to take this opportunity to hone his secret techniques, but wouldn't doing so reveal too many of his secrets?
"If the Origin Law descend, even the Universe Overlord would find it difficult to resist. What's the point of that? I've been in seclusion for tens of thousands of years, and I have gained many insights. It's a good opportunity to let them verify them."
"Hmm?" The Chaos City Lord was somewhat surprised. Even without using the Supreme Treasure that simulates the Origin Law, Zhang Junbao was still confident that he could defeat the Universe Overlord.
Just how many secrets is Zhang Junbao hiding?
"Now even I'm curious, just how strong are you now!" Seeing Zhang Junbao's confident expression, the Chaos City Lord knew that he had grown up, and a smile appeared on his serious face.
You'll find out soon enough.
"These Supreme Treasure need to be appraised. This is the divine sword ' Wind Splitter ' belonging to the Ganwu Country Lord, and also the Supreme Treasure set of the Venerable Nine Swords."
" The Venerable Nine Swords actually lent you his most prized Supreme Treasure set? Has he gone mad?" Even the Chaos City Lord was now in a panic.
The Venerable Nine Swords is gambling with his life and fortune.
Does he really trust Zhang Junbao that much?
"Actually, this is an investment he made. I promised to return it 100%. He lent me one Supreme Treasure and I can get two in return. Why not?" Zhang Junbao said.
"If I weren't among the Universe Master, I would still suspect that you've conspired with Universe Master to swindle the Supreme Treasure of the Universe Venerable," the Chaos City Lord said with a wry smile.
"I call this 'the righteous attract many helpers.' Actually, I also plan to help Venerable Guiyi and the others win a few Supreme Treasure, because Venerable Guiyi and Venerable Tiehuo have already given me their Supreme Treasure." Zhang Junbao grinned.
"Even Gui Yi and the others are among them?" The Chaos City Lord gasped. Unbeknownst to him, Zhang Junbao had already been joined by a number of Universe Venerable, and even Universe Overlord.
"Bring out all your Supreme Treasure, and I'll assess them for you."
"This is Venerable Guiyi's Domain-type Supreme Treasure ' Return to the Ruins ', Venerable Tiehuo's Supreme Treasure warhammer ' Heavenly Fire ', and I obtained from the Ancestral God Sect the Flying Palace-type Supreme Treasure ' Beast God Guardian ', and the soul Supreme Treasure ' Heart of the Light Beast God '."
" Gui Yi and Iron Fire, I never expected them to bring out their most Supreme Treasure." The Chaos City Lord looked at Zhang Junbao, unsure whether to laugh or cry.
Many powerful figures Universe Venerable from the Virtual Universe Company lineage actually lent Zhang Junbao their Supreme Treasure —what incredible trust that is!
" Domain Type, Flying Palace-type, and Soul Defense-type Supreme Treasure are all extremely special Supreme Treasure. Aren't they afraid you'll lose?"
"I'm not afraid. It's better if I lose, because then they'll have a reason to make me forge a Supreme Treasure exclusively for them."
"I understand you less and less. All these Supreme Treasure combined are worth 1884 Supreme Treasure Point, which is comparable to the value of a Top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure."
"What about your Domain-type Supreme Treasure? Aren't you going to bet on it all?"
"No need. I'm afraid even if we invited the three top-tier Universe Venerable, it still wouldn't be as valuable as the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation." Zhang Junbao shook his head.
"After completing the components of the Mother Emperor Mystic Realm, it has reached the level of Top-tier Supreme Treasure?" the Chaos City Lord asked.
The value of the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation itself is equivalent to that of Top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure. If we take into account its effect of communicating with the Origin Clone Universe, it is more than enough to be considered Peak Domain-type Supreme Treasure.
"Go further up." Zhang Junbao grinned, and even the Chaos City Lord was stunned.
