Qie Qiong was unaware of the attention the Primal Universe paid to him, but even if he had known, Qie Qiong wouldn't have cared.

He is currently in the Constant Sand Secret Region, waiting with the Chaos City Lord for the Dream Demon Ancestor to arrive with his conditions.

Constant Sand Secret Region, in the void.

The Chaos City Lord stood side by side with Qie Qiong, and beside them was the Lord of Sky Wolf, whose divine body was weakened. However, this previously arrogant Demon Race Universe Master was much quieter at this moment.

The two were waiting for the Dream Demon Ancestor!

The wait wasn't too long.

"Buzz"

A chilling pressure suddenly descended!

With the appearance of this oppressive force, even the Will of the Original Universe near the Constant Sand Secret Region yielded.

This is the privilege of the Universe Supreme Master.

A silvery-white light pierced the void, revealing the enormous, unimaginably massive serpent—none other than the Dream Demon Ancestor, the Universe Supreme Master the Demon Race universe!

Its enormous serpentine eyes swept coldly over the Chaos City Lord and Qie Qiong, its gaze lingering on Qie Qiong for a moment, a hint of anger hidden within its icy gaze.

Finally, its gaze fell upon the Lord of Sky Wolf, whose aura had weakened beside the Chaos City Lord.

The Supreme Treasure that belonged to this Demon Race Universe Master has already been taken by the Human Race.

"Chaos, Jixing." The Dream Demon Ancestor's voice was icy and chilling. "The item has been brought."

Its snake tail swayed slightly, and three streams of Flowing Light shot out from the void, hovering in the void in front of Qie Qiong and the Chaos City Lord.

One was War Blade, entirely crimson, seemingly composed of solidified magma, its blade ablaze with an inextinguishable dark red flame—a supreme offensive Supreme Treasure the "Molten Star Blade."

The other was a pair of wings that shimmered with dreamlike starlight. Each feather seemed to be composed of a compressed galaxy, and with the slightest tremor, it triggered the Peak Supreme Treasure Weapon of spatial tides, the "Illusory Star Wings".

The last item was a strange, crimson-gold sphere, inside which was imprisoned a boiling sea of fire—the very "Fire Annihilation Realm," Qie Qiong's primary target.

After examining the three Supreme Treasures before him and confirming that they were genuine Chaos City Lord...

He nodded slightly, and with a thought, the massive body of the Lord of Sky Wolf beside him slowly flew towards the Dream Demon Ancestor.

"Meng Cha, the transaction is complete," the Chaos City Lord laughed. "The Lord of Sky Wolf is now returned to you."

"Snort!"

The Dream Demon Ancestor snorted coldly.

The enormous snake mouth opened slightly, and an invisible suction force instantly and slowly drew the Lord of Sky Wolf towards it.

The Lord of Sky Wolf's enormous wolf body was pulled along without any resistance, transforming into a stream of Flowing Light that disappeared into the Dream Demon Ancestor's body.

Having rescued the Lord of Sky Wolf, the Dream Demon Ancestor's icy gaze swept over the Chaos City Lord and Qie Qiong once more, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.

However, the killing intent eventually subsided. If Qie Qiong had come alone, it would have already made its move, but after all, the Chaos City Lord was also present, and this was in the Primal Universe.

To reiterate, no matter how powerful the Universe Supreme Master is, they cannot kill a Fifth-Order Peak Universe Master in the Primal Universe, and they cannot afford the cost!

"Jixing Palace Master, what a skillful tactic! My Demon Race will remember this grudge!"

Having said that, its massive serpentine body ceased its movement, Space-Time around it distorted, the silvery-white light contracted, and its figure vanished from the spot.

"The Demon Races near the two great secret realms and the Cosmic Pole Secret Realm will be wiped out within an era." The Dream Demon Ancestor's icy voice echoed in the void.

Immediately, the silver light completely dissipated, and the pressure from the Dream Demon Ancestor receded like a tide, Will of the Original Universe to regain control of this space.

The Constant Sand Secret Region has returned to its former "peace".

The transaction was completed, Qie Qiong and the other two did not linger.

"Let's go too," the Chaos City Lord said, looking at Qie Qiong.

Qie Qiong nodded and waved his hand to put away the three Supreme Treasures from the Demon Race.

A flash of silver light from the Silent Star Palace enveloped the two of them, then transformed into a streak of Flowing Light, instantly teleporting them away from the Constant Sand Secret Region and speeding towards the direction of the Initial Universe.

In the Initial Universe, in Chaos City, within the Human Race Treasury of the Chaos City Lord's Mansion...

Inside the silent treasure vault, Qie Qiong sat cross-legged. Floating before him were two Supreme Treasures he had just acquired in the trade: the Molten Star Blade and the Illusory Star Wings.

As for the Fire Annihilation Realm," it was naturally put away by Qie Qiong.

With a thought, he directly opened the Human Race Treasury System.

"Exchange the Molten Star Blade's for Supreme Treasure Points," Qie Qiong commanded.

"Ding! The pinnacle weapon Supreme Treasure Molten Star Blade," estimated value: 1250 Supreme Treasure Points. Confirm redemption?"

"Confirm."

Exchange "Illusory Star Wings" for Supreme Treasure Points.

"Ding! The ultimate weapon Supreme Treasure 'Illusory Star Wings', estimated value: 1000 Supreme Treasure Points. Confirm redemption?"

"Confirm."

The two Supreme Treasures transformed into Flowing Light and disappeared into the treasure vault, replaced by 2250 Supreme Treasure points added to Qie Qiong's account.

The Supreme Treasure Points obtained from this is naturally less than those obtained from the Human Race Treasury, but this is normal; the Human Race Treasury increases little by little in this way.

The more powerful Human Race is, the more they contribute. For example, the Giant Axe Founder contributed nearly 80% of the Supreme Treasures in this treasury.

And almost all of them were contributed free of charge.

The Initial Universe, Chaos City, Qie Qiong Mansion.

Qie Qiong's figure appeared in the quiet room.

With the transaction completed, the Supreme Treasure Points were deposited into the account. Qie Qiong would soon be using the system again.

Now, only one last thing remains.

The Fire Annihilation Domain appeared in his palm; within the crimson-gold sphere, it seemed to imprison an endless sea of fire.

He sat down cross-legged, his Divine Sense sinking into the Fire Annihilation Domain. In Qie Qiong's perception, the secret runes of this ordinary Domain Supreme Treasure were not exactly the same as those of the previous Thunder Annihilation Domain, but they had many similarities.

"Indeed, we share the same origin—" A hint of understanding and anticipation flashed in Qie Qiong's silver-gold eyes.

All we need to do is find the final key piece of the "Myriad Star Compass" puzzle.

Once the fusion is successful, the Myriad Star Compass will no longer be Peak Domain Supreme Treasure, but a truly Most Powerful Supreme Treasure!

But at that time, it was enough to become one of his reliance for traversing the Universe Ocean in the future.

However, the most important thing now is to reincarnate again. After all, his mastery of secret techniques and the Time Law has not improved in recent years, and he wants to exchange for "Space-Time Destruction: Time Chapter" again. All of this needs to be achieved through the system.

With this thought in mind, he logged into the Virtual Universe.

He sent emails directly to the Giant Axe Founder and the Chaos City Lord, essentially saying that he was about to go into seclusion and that they didn't need to contact him unless it was something important.

With the email successfully sent, the clone within the Giant Axe Universe also arrived at its secluded cultivation location.

Even Snow Eagle World returned to Space-Time Island and went into seclusion.

Because after using the system's reincarnation function, Qie Qiong will fall into a deep sleep. Only when the reincarnation world completes the mission and restores the memories will all the clones wake up. This is also a rather inhumane aspect of the system.

With everything finished, Qie Qiong thought.

The system panel appeared in front of me.

Click the reincarnation function directly.

[Host detected to have broken through to the Universe Level. Recharge now to gain one chance to draw a world. Mission objective achieved.]

[Task Rewards: Perfect Conversion (Void True God Manual, Secret Treasure, etc.), 10,000 Myriad Heavens Coins.]

Qie Qiong was slightly taken aback when she saw the reward this time. "This one is much more generous than the last one."

Last time, there was only the chance to perfectly convert the secret manual, but this time it could be other treasures.

Moreover, there's the Myriad Heavens Coins, which are currently in dire need of Qie Qiong. You should know that the last Myriad Heavens Coins were only obtained by achieving perfect quest completion.

This time, completing the basic tasks is enough. But what happens after achieving the perfect achievement?

As for whether or not a perfect achievement could be achieved, that was not within Qie Qiong's consideration. After all, since the last mission, Qie Qiong had discovered that the reincarnated body was actually reincarnated with Qie Qiong's essence.

In other words, since Qie Qiong is currently Universe Venerable, when he travels to that world and reaches the equivalent level of Universe Venerable in that universe, he will not encounter any bottlenecks.

Although it is only a small part of Qie Qiong's true spirit reincarnated, the closer one gets to the level of Universe Venerable, the slower the progress will be, but he will eventually reach that level.

This is what a great man meant when he said, "The road is tortuous, but the future is bright."

As long as he isn't too unlucky after his reincarnation and isn't killed before he can become stronger, he refuses to believe that a Universe Venerable like himself can't achieve a perfect result in Universe Level mission!

Then come the recharge conditions.

[Universe Level resources x100, Life Fruit x10, Fire Origin Crystal x1.]

It still represents resources beyond what a normal Universe Level could possess.

The most important Life Fruit last time can only be considered a mid-level recharge condition this time.

"It seems that my strength will need to far exceed the conditions for its use in the future," Qie Qiong remarked after reading the text.

After all, even if he could meet the requirements for Universe Level and higher upgrades with his Human Race, what about the Universe Supreme Master?

Resources beyond this level are so vast that even selling the entire Human Race wouldn't be enough to buy them.

After all, this is only at the Universe Level and it already requires resources at the Immortal Level. The Universe Supreme Master probably need resources from Void True Gods or even Eternal True Gods.

If by then he is still at the same level as those who meet the conditions for initiating reincarnation, then it will truly be a case of wishful thinking.

So now that I think about it, it's actually a good thing that this system came so late, all these years later.

This is similar to the snowball effect in everyday life.

Thinking this way, Qie Qiong directly recharged the resources he had prepared in advance into the system.

Since the last time she had to buy resources in advance, Qie Qiong directly purchased a lot of low-level resources, which she used for this moment.

[Use.]

With the recharge successful, Qie Qiong had a thought and immediately used the life transfer function.

[Drawing worlds in progress--]

"Hopefully, this time the world will have a familiar world."

The myriad worlds are vast and immense; even Qie Qiong cannot guarantee that he will draw a world he is familiar with every time.

Familiarity with the world is far too important for Qie Qiong. After all, as long as he is familiar with it, his familiarity with these worlds from his first life, which he hasn't regained his memories of, will be his most powerful advantage, far more important than any secret manual or treasure he chooses in some ways.

Without his memories, who knows what might have happened given his personality when he first transmigrated?

[World successfully drawn. Please select one of the following worlds.]

[I. The Joy of Life World: The highest level of items that can be selected in this world is Planetary Level items]

[II. In the One World, there are no realm requirements for items.]

[III. Desolate Era World - Select this world for items with the highest quality: World Hunyuan.]

"It seems there's no point in hesitating."

Qie Qiong looked at the three worlds before her.

The good news is that Qie Qiong is familiar with all three worlds; the bad news is that she has no choice.

The first world, the martial arts world, is nothing special. It's just another world like Douluo Continent, and for Qie Qiong, it's not even as good as the Douluo Continent World.

After all, in the Douluo World, at the very least, the power of laws that a god possesses can still be comprehended by Qie Qiong, who is at the Planetary Level.

But what the heck is this Joy of Life World?!

For Qie Qiong, who is at the Universe Level, let alone the cultivation system of that world, even the nuclear war that created that world's Transcendent system would be as easy as taking a bath for him!

Qie Qiong thought to himself.

As for the second world, it is extremely powerful, but Qie Qiong dares not go there.

What kind of world is that? It's a world where martial arts heroes skip the intermediate stages and go straight to the pinnacle of gods and demons.

Even within the world as Qie Qiong knows, this world is the pinnacle of existence.

Based on the power of this world as described in the original work, Qie Qiong felt that he would only have some confidence to go to this world after becoming Hunyuan.

The cultivation realms in this world are divided into several stages: Meridian Opening, Qi Accumulation, Aperture Opening, Exterior Scenery, Dharma Body, Legend, Creation, the Nirvana, and the Dao Fruit.

Other realms are easy to talk about, but the realms below the Nirvana are truly worlds apart.

On the Nirvana, having reached this level, one can look back on the past and absorb the future. The past and future are one, and one's inner landscape is comparable to the myriad worlds. One can freely modify the external timeline, reverse cause and effect, and calling a deer a horse is nothing more than a casual act for them.

In other words, if they wanted to, a powerful being comparable to a high-level Hunyuan Creation could become a mortal in the next second.

Therefore, the chasm between the Nirvana and Nirvana far surpasses the difference between heaven and Heaven and Earth. Even the most extraordinary realms of Creation are no different from ordinary people when facing the Nirvana.

It is precisely because of this insurmountable chasm that the realm of Creation closest to the Nirvana in this world is named the "Sea of Bitterness"; and the Nirvana itself is the "Heaven's Will" hanging high above all living beings.

The will of Heaven's Will is unpredictable, and its mysteries have always been difficult to fathom.

This is also the essential difference between this world and other worlds.

In other worlds, a higher level can kill a lower level, but my realm is real. In this world, however, it is right in front of me, and your realm and memories are equally laughable.

Qie Qiong couldn't guarantee that his system could block out the Nirvana's perception. Even if it could, what about the Dao Fruit?

The Dao Fruit do exist in this world!

Therefore, Qie Qiong dared not gamble on whether his system would work.

Therefore, the Desolate Era World is Qie Qiong's only choice.

The world of Hunyuan, the highest world, is not just right for Qie Qiong, it is absolutely perfect!

And this world is not as despairing as the One World.

Choose the Desolate Era World.
