Chapter 1267: The Supreme Masters Who Traveled Alone

In one of the secondary halls, four figures sat in silence.

At that moment, Luo Feng walked in with a stone blade at his back as his eyes swept through the hall in one swift look. This time around, those treading the same path he was taking were Ice Mountain Master, Long Yan Master, Deserted Mirror Master, and Remote Lord Master. In terms of power, Remote Lord Master was slightly inferior, but the other three were extraordinary because they were extremely ancient beings.

Ice Mountain Master and Long Yan Master had been under Teacher Origin’s guidance before, thus explaining their abilities; as for Deserted Mirror Master, he was the creator of the Universe Mercenary Alliance. That was a testimonial to his ability!

“Luo Feng.”

“Luo Feng.”

“Milky Way.”

“Luo Feng.” The four looked over and called out at the same time.

Deserted Mirror Master said in a solemn tone, “For this war, I will only leave one body behind. The other three will follow you into the battlefield.”

“This way, our team will be stronger,” Luo Feng said with a sigh. Usually, Deserted Mirror Master would reap personal benefits for the Universe Mercenary Alliance under his command, but at the critical moment, he would not go soft. When one could become a universe master, to have more than one body was something quite common. Long Yan Master also had another body.

The majority of them would have a total of two bodies. One body would remain in the god country while the other would normally go out to battle. Like Deserted Mirror, Luo Feng and Primal Chaos City Leader—who were able to own more than two bodies—such great beings belonged to a minority. Just one universe master from this genre could fight against a few other ordinary universe masters. This was also the overall power of Deserted Mirror’s Universe Mercenary Alliance, which was one of the reasons why this Alliance was slightly stronger than the Universe Star River Bank and Universe First Bank.

“Deserted Mirror Master, Ice Mountain Master, Long Yan Master, and Remote Lord Master, the four of you will attack at the same time,” Luo Feng said. “In this way, especially with the three bodies of Deserted Mirror out on the battlefield… with all of your powers combined, we can be confident of warding off even the attacks of universe supreme masters. However, such tangled warfare can get very dangerous, so it is better to fight within the surroundings of the Boat of Mausoleum.”

“Mm.”

“True.”

Deserter Mirror and Ice Mountain both nodded. They were confident but not reckless. After all, given their surroundings alone, there were already three other pinnacle races as neighbors. Any one of these races was comparable to the humans! Should the three other races decide to lay siege to the humans, with their universe supreme masters and greater number of universe masters, once the siege and fights commenced, the human race would definitely suffer a great loss. At this point, if the human race still insisted on their act of heroism, they would be courting death.

However, if they had sixth-tiered universe masters as their strength in battle, they did still have the capital for acts of heroism.

“This time, I…” Deserted Mirror said in a low voice, “am most worried that the other powers will act together! Undoubtedly, the three pinnacle races will attack. But if the other powers are to take action, too… The most terrifying ones are the universe supreme masters who move about alone. If they were to join in…”

Luo Feng, Ice Mountain, Remote Lord, and Long Yan were at a loss for words. Everyone wore awful expressions.

True enough. The top nine powers in the original universe were, namely, the Ancestral God School, the humans, the demons, the automaton race, the bug clan, prison clan, the crystal clan, the Northern Territory Alliance, and the Space Beast Alliance! Aside from the humans, the Ancestral God School, the demons, the automaton clan, the bug clan, and the Space Beast Alliance all had supreme true treasures! The prison clan, the crystal clan, and the Northern Territory Alliance did not have any.

Because the prison clan and the crystal clan did not have any supreme true treasures and were located in more remote areas and, overall, slightly weaker, the other powers—like the humans, demons, automaton race, and bug clan—would usually engage in fights against these two groups just as aggressively, but they did not really consider two races as equals.

A must-know: Other than these nine top powers, there were also supreme masters that traveled alone, like Sitting Mountain Guest, Shi Hua Island Leader, Black Universe Creator, Virtual Real Devil God, and Demon Beast Ancestor. These universe supreme masters were born as special life forms and grew up to become universe supreme masters, so all of them were incomparably ancient, with strong powers that allowed them to be arrogant.

In fact, the Alliance Master of the Northern Territory Alliance was a supreme master who originally had been a lone traveler but was eventually roped into joining the alliance. Even so, he was only alliance master in name and would only occasionally help out in the alliance. That Alliance Master had his own supreme true treasure, but he would never use it for the purpose of helping the Northern Territory Alliance. Even if the alliance was doomed, that Alliance Master would not feel the pressure at all.

In the original universe, there were around a dozen universe supreme masters, and they all bore grudges against one another.

Demon Beast Ancestor, for example, proclaimed himself to be the “guiding figure for the demons” and the “leading figure for the space beasts.” He thought himself to be the true ancestor of both the demons and space beasts, which was why he called himself Demon Beast Ancestor. He had once basked in great glory, but later, the Space Beast Alliance and demons broke free from his control. This was one of the reasons why the demons were always so loud about the fact that the space beasts were a part of the demons. The dispute between the two races was, indeed, great.

No matter what, these supreme masters who traveled alone were not to be trifled with. Some were mysterious, like Northern Territory Alliance Master, Sitting Mountain Guest, and Shi Hua Island Leader. Some fought their way through extremely great battles of fame, like Black Universe Creator, Demon Beast Ancestor, and Virtual Real Devil God. They were all born as special life forms, and they were more ancient than any other beings!

Other than the unlucky Demon Beast Ancestor, everyone else had their own supreme true treasures that they carried around with them!

“Nine top powers and the group consisting of lone travelers.” Secretly, Luo Feng was secretly on edge. “The group consisting of lone travelers is more mysterious, as they have no need to fight for any race. They only have to take charge of themselves… And these special life forms are all extremely ancient, like my teacher Sitting Mountain Guest. This group of lone travelers certainly does not pale in comparison to any of the top nine powers of the universe. With the inheritance of the pulse of Duan Dong River, the temptation to transcend a reincarnation era must be quite alluring to them.”

An intangible pressure within the hall kept Luo Feng, Ice Mountain, Deserted Mirror, and Remote Lord all in silence.

“Humph!” Long Yan Master said in a hoarse voice. “No matter who our enemy is, there is only one battle! We humans… are left with no other choice!”

All four pairs of eyes—those of Luo Feng, Deserted Mirror, Remote Lord, and Ice Mountain—lit up. It was true. If their enemies were to kill their way through, what else could the human race do? They could only fight through this one battle!

******

In three of the secondary halls of Primal Chaos City Leader Palace, three troops were waiting in silence. During the wait, a murderous intention was brewing within their hearts.

A voice resounded in all three secondary halls at the same time: “Come quickly!”

Luo Feng, Ice Mountain, Long Yan, Deserted Mirror and Remote Lord rose to their feet all at once, and with a single teleportation, they all disappeared at the same time.

******

Within the main hall of Primal Chaos City Leader Palace.

With Luo Feng leading the troop with Ice Mountain Master, Darkness Master leading the troop with Qing Dong Master, and Peng Gong leading the troop with Void Gold Master, three troops appeared together. These 15 powerful beings all looked at Primal Chaos City Leader.

“Everyone…” Primal Chaos City Leader’s gaze swept through them all. The eyes of all the universe masters were surging with fighting spirit as they were all ready for a bloody battle.

“The demons, the bug clan, and the automaton race…” Primal Chaos City Leader said solemnly. “Based on Teacher Origin’s speculation, the universe supreme masters of these three groups should already have met up once for a discussion, and as of just a moment ago, the three races have started to take action.”

Luo Feng, Darkness Master, and Peng Gong Master could not help but show feelings of intense craziness in their eyes. They had truly attacked the human race!

“And every one of these three troops have supreme universe masters,” Primal Chaos City Leader continued. “The moment they arrived in the starlit sky via their god country transportation, Teacher Origin sensed it… The problem is that all of them had their universe supreme beings forcing their way into the virtual universe, which is why, out of these three troops, we are unable to tell which troop belongs to the bug clan or the demons. Everything is unknown to us.”

“I trust that news of Huge Axe’s annihilation will spread within the original universe very quickly,” Primal Chaos City Leader said with a heavy heart. “I believe it will soon attract the other groups of superpowers, the groups of powers that are a notch less powerful, and even the supreme masters who are lone travelers. Which is why this first battle must be one that can scare the various groups and instill some fear so that there will at least be some who will hesitate in attacking us. If our race is weak… it will cause some other groups of powers to be worried, as they may lose out on advantages because of being late. I’m afraid that by then, the various groups of powers and universe supreme masters will all come at us in hordes. Then our human race will really be forced to retreat from the original universe.”

Everyone maintained silent.

It was true. So what if they had two to three supreme true treasures? The nine top powers of the universe, various top-notch groups of powers, and supreme masters who were lone travelers… Once all of them charged toward the human race together, it was certain death for anyone who tried to stand in their way—unless they hid in the Boat of Mausoleum throughout the entire war. But if they were to remain hidden, how would they protect their territory?

Primal Chaos City Leader’s eyes were sharp. In a low growl, he continued, “I have discussed the matter with Teacher Origin. In this first battle, our human race will send out three small troops to join forces and attack one of theirs! If we join our forces, in one swift move, we will destroy this troop! Let them suffer heavy losses, and make the other groups of powers so scared that they will not be mindlessly reckless.”

“Yes.”

“Destroy them!”

“Launch a full attack on this one troop! Exterminate this troop!” Luo Feng and the others gritted their teeth and roared.

They were all aware that things would be tough, but they had to harden their hearts and be vicious. If they could not even destroy one troop of such, when the other powers came charging toward them, they would be facing their greatest nightmare.

“Great!” Primal Chaos City Leader said. “Now, we set off right away. As for the coordinates of the three troops, we will head toward whichever is easiest for us to access. Then we will exterminate whichever troop we find there.”

“Yes.”

“Let’s go!”

“Let’s go!”

All were shouting at the top of their lungs with rage shrouding their minds, voicing everything they had suppressed within their hearts! Now was the time for war; now was the time for their outburst!

******

The human race had three troops composed of super beings with the strongest attacking force, and they had speedily left Primal Chaos City to arrive at the original universe.

“This set of coordinates. We can easily arrive here within the shortest time.”

The virtual universe had become the headquarters of the high command, and Primal Chaos City Leader was in control of the entire situation. This time around, the three troops had brought a large number of undying spirits, and many of these had, in turn, a large number of tokens scattered all over the universe. Therefore, they had efficient ways to get to their god country transportation.

“Let’s go!”

“Let’s go!”

“Let’s go!”

There was a Boat of Mausoleum, a Black Pyramid, and an Ancient Palace. (This was a pinnacle palace true treasure, under the limit of the original universe. It had limited attacking force. Even so, it was impossible to cause damage to a pinnacle palace true treasure.) They belonged to the three troops led by Luo Feng, Darkness and, Peng Gong, respectively.

Hong!

Amidst a dazzling golden light, time and space were contorted!

Light rays of god country shone through time and space and reached out over a slightly further distance to envelop the Boat of Mausoleum, Black Pyramid, and Ancient Palace in its golden light rays; at the same time, it transported them over to their destination.

“You all are still about 120 light years away from your target,” Primal Chaos City Leader informed via the virtual universe. “These are the exact coordinates.”

Within the Boat of Mausoleum, Luo Feng was in his suit of silver armor with two pairs of widespread silver wings and a stone blade on his back; he also carried with him a pinnacle soul true treasure to protect his soul. Given his willpower, together with the pinnacle soul type true treasure, even if ten Virtual Real Devil God were to attack, he would have no fear!

“Teleport!”

“Teleport!”

“Teleport!”

Three troops teleported almost simultaneously. Almost simultaneously, the Boat of Mausoleum, Black Pyramid, and Ancient Palace leaped over a distance of 120 light years and appeared amidst a quiet and dark sky. There was not a single star in their surroundings, only a gigantic, dark gray vessel far away within that contorted space. The moment Luo Feng and the three troops appeared after teleporting there, a boundless and powerful aura surged and spread out from that gigantic vessel, then it swept towards Luo Feng and company.

“It’s the demons!” Luo Feng. The rest took one look at that gigantic vessel, and right away, they identified the targets of their attack for this round.
