Chapter 387: Facing the Battle

The Divine Eye Clan locked in emptiness did not make the Divine Eye True Lord panic; rather, this Secret Pattern greatly intrigued him.

"Perhaps this is my chance to break through to True God, and also the Divine Eye Clan's only hope," the Divine Eye True Lord thought silently.

He continuously studied the intermittently appearing Secret Pattern within the divine power in his body.

To become a Ninth‑Rank True God, the Divine Eye True Lord's mastery of secret arts is already quite good.

Time swiftly passed as the Divine Eye True Lord conducted his research.

…

Eight days later.

Primordial Universe, outside the Toa Black Hole.

A towering ice mountain stood not far outside the black hole.

"Hun Dun Teacher, Master Uncle of Darkness, Lord of Peng Gong, hurry back into the Primordial Universe; the Insect Race, Demon Race, and Mechanical Race armies have already assembled," Xiao Yu ordered.

"Alright, Xiao Yu, Great Axe, take care and come back alive," the Chaos City Lord said, looking at Xiao Yu with anticipation.

Then the Lord of Ice Peak, the Lord of Silent Marquis, the Lord of Darkness, and more than twenty other Realm Lords each flew into the Toa Black Hole.

"Hmm." Xiao Yu nodded slightly.

The Chaos City Lord, his body clad in purple armor, flew into the Toa Black Hole, leaving only Xiao Yu and Great Axe outside the hole.

"Great Axe Founder, you should also return! I'm worried I can't cope without you," Xiao Yu said, then turned to the Great Axe Founder.

"Can you alone handle the Divine Eye Clan?" the Great Axe Founder asked, doubting that Xiao Yu had become so strong— even the original Yuan Zu could not achieve it.

"I am a Realm Lord, with a clone; even if the Human True Body falls, it's merely the loss of some Ultimate Treasures. But Great Axe, you are different," Xiao Yu reasoned. "If you fall, it will be a true fall."

"Ha ha, your strength is great; I've always thought you were like me, also the Strongest of the Universe," the Great Axe Founder laughed, then stared at Xiao Yu for a long while. "You truly now possess a strong‑man's heart."

"Great Axe, sneak back quietly, make no noise, and strike them by surprise with a thunderous blow against the Mechanical Race, Demon Race, and Insect Race alliance," Xiao Yu said with a smile.

"Hmm. This time we must teach the three races a lesson so they never dare to provoke my Human Race again," the Great Axe Founder laughed heartily.

"Ha ha! Reaching that point is truly not easy!" Xiao Yu laughed.

To extinguish the Demon Race, Mechanical Race, and Insect Race's desire to encroach on Human Race territory, they must be hurt badly, causing severe losses in this operation.

Yet relying only on the Hongmeng Alliance's more than forty Realm Lords— even with clones, not exceeding a hundred— a direct strike against the three‑race alliance is indeed no easy task.

"I hope to hear good news from you," the Great Axe said, looking at Xiao Yu with expectation.

"Certainly." Xiao Yu nodded.

Then Great Axe surged into the Toa Black Hole, entered the Primordial Universe, retrieved a Peak Palace Supreme Treasure, entered the palace, and performed continuous Instant Teleports.

Outside the Toa Black Hole, Xiao Yu re‑entered Cold Cliff Fortress, which flew straight into the No. 19 spatial vortex.

Then he kept Instant Teleporting, and upon finding a suitable spatial vortex, entered a Teleportation Channel, racing toward the Qingfeng Realm.

…

Initial Universe, Chaos City.

At this moment, Chaos City has become one of the two true cores of the Human Race, the other being the Giant Axe Microcosm.

The Lord of Darkness, the Lord of Peng Gong, Xiao Yu, and others are here, and almost every Realm Lord of the Hongmeng Alliance is stationed here as well.

Although Great Axe has returned, he cannot appear. Thus, command of this battle in the Primordial Universe region is temporarily handed to the Chaos City Lord.

The Chaos City has now expanded more than tenfold; countless Immortals, Realm Lords, and Domain Lords are all cultivating here, as if the outside war were unrelated to them.

Xiao Yu saw Hu Yanbo here, and even Babata was present; they have been brought into the Initial Universe rather than, as with the Earth Lineage, entering his Divine Kingdom.

Here Hu Yanbo also cultivates in the guise of an ordinary Immortal.

"Creator Lord, I didn't expect that while you are in the Cosmic Sea you still have the energy to leave a Divine Avatar in the Primordial Universe," the Lord of Peng Gong envied.

"The Creator Lord's soul is stronger than that of ordinary Strongest Beings of the Universe, so it's natural to achieve that," the Lord of Darkness said.

The Lord of Darkness also heard it from the Chaos City Lord, finally understanding how Xiao Yu is truly powerful.

Now Xiao Yu's combat power can be said to be the strongest among the Human Race, not inferior at all to Yuan Zu.

"Junior brother, Peng Gong, Xiao Yu! Come quickly!" a voice echoed instantly throughout the Chaos City.

In the Creation Temple, Xiao Yu awoke.

Whoosh!

He instantly Instant Teleported into the Chaos Ruins within the City Lord's inner residence.

Three figures appeared almost in succession via Instant Teleport, exchanged glances, then all looked up at the Chaos City Lord ahead.

"Has it begun?" the Lord of Darkness asked.

The Chaos City Lord nodded: "Just now Yuan Zu told me his Virtual Universe has detected movement from the Demon Race, Mechanical Race, and Insect Race; their super‑strong beings have formed a team and are about to attack. We need to prepare in advance."

"Yuan Zu?" the Lords of Darkness and Peng Gong both showed a hint of surprise.

"I never told you."

The Chaos City Lord solemnly said, "Yuan Zu's Virtual Universe can cover the entire Primordial Universe! Only a Strongest Being of the Universe, with a word, could force a region to break the Virtual Universe open. Thus, except for a few rare areas such as the Primeval Star, everything lies within the Virtual Universe's coverage, and wherever the Virtual Universe covers, Yuan Zu can know everything there!"

The diameter of the Primordial Universe is enormous, far beyond the Sacred Realm Universe by countless multiples.

And a single secret technique of Yuan Zu can cover the whole Primordial Universe; one can imagine Yuan Zu's astounding strength and talent!

Whether Xiao Yu, the Lord of Darkness, or the Lord of Peng Gong, all were very pleased.

Thus they were essentially conducting an asymmetric operation, with the opponent before them practically laid bare.

"If the Strongest Being of the Universe acts, even forcing the Virtual Universe open," the Chaos City Lord said, "Yuan Zu can still gauge the approximate region of the Strongest Being."

"According to the information relayed by Yuan Zu, although the Demon Race, Mechanical Race, and Insect Race have united, they split into three forces; the Strongest Beings of each race lead their own troops straight toward the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters," the Chaos City Lord said. "Great Axe has returned but will stay hidden, and you, Xiao Yu, likewise should not reveal your avatar's combat power for now; wait for the crucial moment to deliver a thunderous strike to the three races."

"We previously had no Strongest Supreme Treasure, but this time Great Axe has two, one of which is a Domain‑type Strongest Supreme Treasure; this will surely give the three races a proper lesson!" the Lord of Darkness said. (End of chapter)
