Chapter 97: The Influence of the Lord of the Universe

The human race has quietly obtained the "Divine Power Burning Secret Technique," a massive killing move, and of course it is kept absolutely secret.

At present, aside from Zhou Yu, the Founder of the Great Axe, and the Lord of Chaos City, no one else knows.

At this moment in the universe, most eyes are still focused on Zhou Yu's Seven‑Star Clone.

And within the human race, a shocking piece of news also spreads silently.

A new Lord of the Universe—Lord of the Realm—has been born.

"Lord of the Realm?"

Many of the human race's Universe Venerables were stunned.

Is it the "Realm Venerable" who, not long ago, was being hunted by numerous alien Universe Venerables and Universe Overlords in the Black Prison Abyss?

He could become a Universe Venerable shortly after breaking immortality, but a Lord of the Universe? How could that be?

Yet, no matter how hard they tried not to believe it, this news was public to the entire human race, and after repeated verification, many strong ones understood that it was indeed true.

At the same time, they suddenly realized that the one who had killed numerous Universe Venerables and Universe Overlords in the Black Prison Abyss was actually the "Lord of the Realm."

"The Lord of the Realm is extremely powerful; although he has just broken through, he annihilated nearly a hundred Universe Overlords in a single move and, together with the Seven‑Star Lord, killed another Universe Lord, the 'Lord of Nine Cultivations.'"

As the news became fully public, many Universe Venerables were further shocked.

"Haha, Chi Yan, earlier Yun Feng asked someone to go to the Black Prison Abyss for him, you agreed, right? Then you could say you have some connection with the Lord of the Realm."

In the virtual universe, Venerable Chi Yan was with his friend; hearing the words, he was at a loss for how to respond.

"After all, the Lord of the Realm is the Lord of the Universe of the Virtual Universe Company, and we only collaborated for a short time, so it shouldn't be taken seriously." Venerable Chi Yan said, "Let's not bring this up again."

Hearing that, Chi Yan's friend was puzzled; this wasn't something Chi Yan would say.

But he soon realized the matter was probably not as simple as he thought.

"I have some business, I'm leaving now." Venerable Chi Yan suddenly stood, and immediately vanished from there.

"Chi Yan, could you have offended the Lord of the Realm?" The Universe Venerable's face showed a hint of surprise.

In Chaos City, Fire Dragon King was also drinking with a friend; at this moment he sat there, clad in brand‑new armored treasure.

"Fire Dragon, your armor—why is its aura so strong?" Someone quickly noticed something off.

"Haha, it's a treasure Zhou Yu gave me, saying it's a supreme treasure. How about it, not bad, right?" Fire Dragon King asked with a smile.

"Lord of the Realm? No, it should be the Realm Venerable. I heard his wealth is indeed immense, but to give you a supreme treasure, that's absurd!"

"Feng Ming, shut up. How the Lord of the Realm acts is none of your business!" another Seal King shouted immediately.

"Lord of the Realm?" The sealed king who was scolded was stunned.

The Immortal's information channel was a bit off; the human high‑level report was sent directly to many Universe Venerables, so the sealed king learned a bit later.

However, now he fully understood.

"Fire Dragon, you really hit the jackpot." Feng Ming King looked at Fire Dragon King in disbelief.

"Can't help it; after all, I was the one who first saw Zhou Yu's extraordinary nature." Fire Dragon King sighed.

"When Zhou Yu first entered Chaos City, I sensed his unparalleled aura, truly a peerless talent, so I was fortunate to become his teacher."

Hearing that, the other sealed kings outwardly agreed but internally were unconvinced.

They are all sealed kings of the "Burning Sky Lineage"; they had seen Zhou Yu entering Chaos City before, and nothing could link him to a peerless genius.

Even if there were any hint of extraordinariness, it wouldn't be up to Fire Dragon King to take disciples.

Dry Witch Universe Country.

Water Moon Star, a planet shrouded in mist, extremely beautiful, also the hometown of Zhou Yu's human‑race clones.

This clone also has rare parents, a wife, and a daughter.

After numerous examinations, Yun Feng the nation lord entered Water Moon Star, bringing the news that Zhou Yu had become the Lord of the Universe.

"Zhou Yu became the Lord of the Universe? What level is a Lord of the Universe?"

Zhou Yu's family were all stunned; his rise was so rapid that their understanding still lingered at the time Zhou Yu just broke immortality.

"The Lord of the Universe is the highest tier of our human race, the foundation of the clan," Yun Feng the nation lord explained patiently, saying:

"Now the Lord of the Realm has gone to guard the Primeval Secret Realm; I have been ordered to bring everyone there."

"Can we also go to the Primeval Secret Realm?"

"Of course, please board my spaceship; we'll talk on the way," Yun Feng the nation lord smiled.

Not long after, Yun Feng the nation lord led Zhou Yu's family to the Primeval Secret Realm; on a vast land, a palace had already been erected.

All the servants assigned here were of the Immortal level.

"Yun Feng, this time I trouble you." After arranging his family, Zhou Yu also called Yun Feng the nation lord into the great hall.

"It's my honor." Yun Feng the nation lord replied promptly.

"Earlier, I forgot something." Zhou Yu said, waving his hand, and a burst of radiance appeared there, speckled with countless stars as if tiny constellations.

"You chased the Five Light Venerable to kill him, was it for this?" Zhou Yu said, "Now it's yours."

"Five Light Star?" Yun Feng the nation lord was overjoyed, he quickly bowed and said, "Thanks, Lord of the Realm."

The Five Light Star is a renowned set of domain treasures in the hands of the Five Light Venerable; Yun Feng the nation lord also unintentionally obtained another treasure, "Star Splendor."

Originally, Yun Feng the nation lord thought "Star Splendor" was just an ordinary treasure, until he met the Five Light Venerable; the two treasures resonated, making him realize the matter was not simple.

Consequently, both he and the Five Light Venerable wanted to kill each other to seize the other's treasure.

"Within this Primeval Secret Realm, I may still have tasks for you later; then you must be diligent." Zhou Yu said.

"I will do my best."

Yun Feng the nation lord nodded; he finally felt a sigh of relief.

A Lord of the Universe may have several Venerable‑rank disciples or some Venerable‑level subordinates; after all, some trivial matters always need someone to handle.

There are too many human Venerables and too few Lords of the Universe, making such positions extremely scarce.

Now, he also counts as under the "Lord of the Realm."

The news that Zhou Yu's human clone became the Lord of the Universe was made public, and it indeed stirred countless waves in the outside world.

But Zhou Yu himself did not care; he was in the primal secret realm, intending to quietly cultivate for a while.

"The next step is to create the Lord of the Universe's ultimate fused secret technique," Zhou Yu said, sitting cross‑legged inside the palace.

At an extremely rapid thought speed, he swiftly deduced.

"I have already devised the first move of the Lord of the Universe's strongest secret technique, 'Prison World', and the second strongest universal technique already has a prototype," Zhou Yu thought.

The move he used in the Black Prison Abyss to slay countless Universal Venerables and Universal Overlords was derived from the other‑universe inheritance 'Twelve Transformations of the Stars', and Zhou Yu named it 'Star Suppression'.

This move can naturally keep growing stronger, becoming the Lord of the Universe's ultimate secret technique, and even potentially reaching the level of the strongest of the universe.

However, Zhou Yu does not wish to fully comprehend this inherited breakthrough; he intends to blend the intricacies of 'Prison World' into it.

"The ultimate fused secret technique of the Lord of the Universe that my human clone aims to create is a single move that merges 'Prison World' with 'Star Suppression'. Both are domain‑type techniques; once merged and combined with my two top‑tier domain treasures, the power is simply incalculable," Zhou Yu thought.

The 'Black Extreme Light Mirror' obtained from the Lord of Pigeon Cultivation, and the new wings formed by fusing two Chaotic Golden Wing components, are both top‑tier domain treasures; the two artifacts belong to different domain directions and can be stacked. The combination of the two top‑tier domain treasures is terrifying, approaching the level of peak domain treasures.

Such treasures, together with Zhou Yu's technique that also fuses two strongest domains, make the power easy to imagine.

"As for the Seven-Star Clone, it's simple: once the moves 'Space‑Time Tribulation' and 'Space‑Time Annihilation' each advance further, they can be merged," Zhou Yu thought.

His 'Space‑Time Tribulation Annihilation' already bore the shadow of the Lord of the Universe's ultimate fused secret technique, so within the Lord of the Universe's strongest secret technique it is top‑tier and exceedingly lethal, allowing the Seven-Star Clone to exhibit that level of power.

While Zhou Yu's human clone prepared to immerse and refine himself, the Seven-Star Vine Clone on the other side was not idle.

His seven Great Gourd clones, aside from leaving two as home‑guards, all prepared to leave the primal universe and head for the Cosmic Sea.

Earlier, after trading with the Great Axe Founder, he obtained a peak palace treasure, a peak domain treasure, and a peak soul treasure; he now has no shortcomings in any aspect.

Even the Cosmic Sea is worth venturing into.

The key is that only the clone goes; even if it is lost, the impact on Zhou Yu is not significant.

"I hope my Fortune's Child talent can play a role in the Cosmic Sea," Zhou Yu thought.

The Cosmic Sea truly is a place that depends purely on luck; with bad luck one may go billions of years without a gain, while with good luck any treasure could be found.

And Zhou Yu, theoretically, has very good luck.

But that's only in theory; he cannot actively control his Fortune's Child talent, so he must leave it to fate.
