Chapter 429: Powerful Ones Arrive in Droves

On Original Star No. 04993, more than twenty Universe Masters had already gathered here by now.

These Universe Masters had mostly come for the True Spirit Hall, which had already appeared; some were there to receive clan experts entering the hall to explore, while others hoped to seize the supreme treasure if an opportunity arose.

Moreover, before this opening of Original Star, the three Ancestral Gods of the Zushen Sect had released news that the next opening of Original Star would be extended for a much longer time.

This meant that for those Universe Masters who were temporarily unwilling to venture into the Sea of Universes, this opening of Original Star was already their best chance in the short term to obtain precious treasures.

What had emerged inside the True Spirit Hall this time was a top-tier soul-type supreme treasure, far more precious than ordinary peak supreme treasures.

Even as merely an incomplete core component, it was enough to attract the attention of many Universe Masters.

Thus, as time continued to pass, the number of Universe Masters gathering on this Original Star began to grow increasingly larger.

However, since the True Spirit Hall had not yet closed, these Universe Masters, though gathered on this Original Star, remained relatively calm; even those with mutual grudges showed considerable restraint.

They merely scattered across different regions of this Original Star, then used their control over a portion of space-time to probe the environments of numerous areas on this star.

After all, once the True Spirit Hall closed, the experts exploring within would generally appear randomly in different regions of this Original Star, so they certainly had to keep constant watch.

And just as the many experts waited silently on this Original Star...

Voom!

A figure clad in dark-red armor, standing tens of thousands of kilometers tall, suddenly emerged from a spatial channel onto this Original Star.

This figure had a single, blood-red horn on its head, raised high toward the sky, its entire body covered in dense scales, and its whole form constantly radiating a bloody aura of slaughter.

The moment this figure appeared, it immediately drew the attention of many Universe Masters on this Original Star; indeed, many wore expressions of wariness and astonishment.

"It is the Blood Chisel Master of the Meng Yao Zu!"

"Why would the Blood Chisel Master come to this Original Star?"

"I recall that among the many experts who entered the True Spirit Hall was Lord Tianlang of the Meng Yao Zu; could it be that Lord Tianlang obtained the core component of the True Spirit Heart Lamp?"

"Even so, there was no need for the Blood Chisel Master to come and receive him!"

"Exactly! Lord Tianlang possesses the Tianlang Hall; escaping Original Star after the True Spirit Hall closes would be quite simple!"

"Indeed! Even putting it another way, even if Lord Tianlang truly needed other Meng Yao Zu experts to guide him, there was no need for the Blood Chisel Master to act!"

Upon seeing this towering figure clad in dark red, the many Universe Masters gathered on this Original Star immediately began transmitting thoughts to discuss with familiar friends.

For this towering figure was a supremely renowned existence of the Meng Yao Zu, the Blood Chisel Master, possessing the strength of a Fifth-Rank Universe Master.

Such Fifth-Rank Universe Masters were already the most powerful existences beneath the Universe's Strongest; within this Original Universe, even the Universe's Strongest would find it difficult to deal with them.

Moreover, the strength of all Fifth-Rank Universe Masters was incomparably mighty; for some Universe Masters with smaller divine bodies and lacking peak supreme treasure armor for protection, a single strike would likely completely annihilate them.

Fifth-Rank Universe Masters like the Blood Chisel Master generally would not return to this Original Star to explore anymore, just as Hun Dun Chengzhu of the Human Race and Master Luochen of the Mechanical Race, and so on...

In an instant, news of the Blood Chisel Master's appearance on Original Star quickly spread outward through these experts toward the outside world.

Inside the True Spirit Hall.

At this moment, the many components of the True Spirit Heart Lamp had not yet been fully obtained by the challengers, so the True Spirit Hall had not yet closed.

After suppressing Lord Tianlang, Lu Qingshan felt some pressure, but after consulting with the high-ranking officials of the Human Race, he gradually set his mind at ease.

Thus, he soon began following the guidance on the spherical phantom in his mind, swiftly flying toward the direction where the core lamp body of the True Spirit Heart Lamp was located.

Unfortunately, after flying for more than half a year within these bizarre and unpredictable maze passages, he still had not reached the area where the lamp body of the True Spirit Heart Lamp was located.

And just at this moment...

Boom-boom-boom!

The previously extremely calm maze passage suddenly began to tremble slightly.

"This is..."

Feeling the tremor of the maze passage, Lu Qingshan's heart stirred: "It seems all components of the True Spirit Heart Lamp have been obtained by someone; I wonder who obtained the core component, the lamp body?"

While various thoughts flashed through his mind, Lu Qingshan also quickly felt the True Spirit Hall's rejection toward him.

At the same time, the token of the True Spirit Hall in his hand shattered, and the spherical phantom in his mind displaying the locations of the many components of the True Spirit Heart Lamp vanished completely.

Lu Qingshan understood this was to prevent experts who had obtained components of the True Spirit Heart Lamp from using this spherical phantom to quickly identify others' identities after leaving the True Spirit Hall.

However, Lu Qingshan did not care too much; although his gains from entering the True Spirit Hall this time were relatively small, he had still obtained a flame of the lamp.

More importantly, Lu Qingshan had also suppressed Lord Tianlang, who held the final major component of the God-Slaying Array Diagram.

As long as he successfully returned to the Human Race's territory with the help of other Human Race experts, the gains obtained through Lord Tianlang would certainly exceed his gains from the God-Slaying Hall last time.

Outside the True Spirit Hall.

Just as Lu Qingshan and others inside the True Spirit Hall felt the hall's rejection, the experts outside also detected the special fluctuations emanating from within the True Spirit Hall.

"This is..."

"The True Spirit Hall is about to close!"

"Everyone pay attention; the experts who entered this True Spirit Hall will be coming out soon!"

"I wonder who will obtain the main components of the True Spirit Heart Lamp this time?"

"Compared to who obtained the core component of the True Spirit Heart Lamp, I am even more curious about what major event actually occurred inside the True Spirit Hall!"

"Indeed! I wonder what major event occurred inside the True Spirit Hall this time; even Lord Tianlang of the Meng Yao Zu and Peng Gong Zhi Zhu of the Human Race have appeared!"

"I recall that the Master of Ten Thousand Worlds of the Human Race also entered that True Spirit Hall; do you think perhaps the Master of Ten Thousand Worlds and Lord Tianlang of the Meng Yao Zu clashed?"

"Who knows? Just watch; perhaps a great battle will erupt on this Original Star next; we should try to stay as far away as possible!"

"Exactly! After receiving the clan experts, I will leave immediately!"

Just as everyone was transmitting thoughts to communicate with familiar friends, figures appeared one after another in different regions of this Original Star.

However, since most gathered on this Original Star were Universe Masters, they could completely detect these experts suddenly appearing on Original Star by controlling a portion of space-time.

The total number of experts who entered the True Spirit Hall this time was only thirty-six; perhaps due to the special environment within the True Spirit Hall, a full thirty-two experts managed to leave the True Spirit Hall alive.

As for what gains these experts made, only they themselves would know.

But compared to the scramble that occurred when similar temples closed before, the scene after this temple's closure was quite eerie.

Apart from some Universe Masters rushing to protect their kin, many Universe Masters did not immediately vie for treasures from the powerful ones exiting the True Spirit Temple.

Especially when they saw that Lord Tianlang had not appeared, they were even more shocked in their hearts.

After all, many powerful ones had sensed Lord Tianlang's entry into the True Spirit Temple back then; now that the temple had closed, he was certainly due to emerge.

"Damn Master of the Ten Thousand Worlds!"

Just as everyone sighed over Lord Tianlang's absence, the furious voice of the Meng Yao Zu's Blood Chisel Master quickly rang out across the entire Primal Star: "You Universe Master who dares suppress our Meng Yao Zu, you are seeking death!"

At the same time...

Buzz!

Endless blood light directly spread to cover the oceans, forests, deserts, swamps, and wastelands...

In almost an instant, this endless blood light had completely shrouded the entire Primal Star, enveloping the whole Primal Star in a tide of towering blood light.

And the binding power generated by this endless blood light had reached an unimaginable degree.

"Not good! It is the Blood Chisel Master's Pagoda Sea!"

"I never expected the Blood Chisel Master to have brought this Pagoda Sea along; it seems the Master of the Ten Thousand Worlds has truly enraged the Meng Yao Zu this time!"

"Didn't you hear the Blood Chisel Master? That Master of the Ten Thousand Worlds suppressed a Universe Master of the Meng Yao Zu; it is likely that Lord Tianlang was suppressed by the Master of the Ten Thousand Worlds, which is why the Meng Yao Zu has gone mad!"

"The Blood Chisel Master's Pagoda Sea is a supreme treasure of the peak Domain class; now the Master of the Ten Thousand Worlds is in trouble!"

"What's the rush? If you can think of it, how could the Master of the Ten Thousand Worlds not have thought of it? This time, powerful ones from the Human Clan have also appeared; they are surely here to support the Master of the Ten Thousand Worlds!"

"It seems the Human Clan and the Meng Yao Zu are about to fight a great battle on this Primal Star; I wonder which side will emerge victorious?"

"It should be the Meng Yao Zu! After all, the Meng Yao Zu has two Universe Supreme Beings!"
