Chapter 413: Scavenging

Cosmic Sea.

Outside the Fourth True Lord's small universe, four streams of light burst in, rushing into the small universe; these beings then scattered in all directions, continuously instant‑teleporting to loot treasures.

"That's all," a stream of light halted, gazing at the remaining ruined Lianmian Mountains, paused briefly, and revealed a Peak Palace Supreme Treasure.

Immediately, it continued to instant‑teleport repeatedly.

Suddenly, he encountered a Ye Ren wielding a Divine Axe and clad in armor; he recognized that Ye Ren, saying, "Giant Axe Founder, what bad luck, ran into humans—humans are not to be trifled with; the Creator Lord is a vengeful hard‑hearted one, cannot be provoked, I'll retreat."

He then tried to change direction to loot.

But as he was about to turn, he found the Giant Axe Founder already before him.

"Giant Axe Founder, the Divine Eye Clan has many treasures; you humans won't try to hog them all, will you!" a low voice echoed from within that Peak Palace Supreme Treasure.

"Eagle Abyss Demon God, what if we humans do try to hog them?" the Giant Axe Founder raised his Divine Axe, clearly ready to strike over a slight disagreement.

"Fine! I can't afford to provoke, can I still not dodge?" Eagle Abyss Demon God, though not as strong as the Giant Axe Founder, isn't afraid of the axe; he fears the Creator Lord.

Though the Giant Axe Founder is powerful, he cannot kill him, so he isn't afraid.

"By the way, there are three Strongest Beings scavenging in those three directions," Eagle Abyss Demon God pointed to the three directions, saying that he cannot loot, and the others he brought along also cannot continue looting.

He is that kind‑hearted.

After the Giant Axe Founder waited for the Eagle Abyss Demon God to leave, he also instant‑teleported toward those three directions.

Eagle Abyss Demon God instantly teleported to the Membrane Wall, then burst out into the Cosmic Sea, grumbling, "We'll leave this small universe's treasures to you humans; let's see if you can survive."

As he prepared to instant‑teleport away, three streams of light surged out in succession.

"Eagle Abyss Demon God, are you being unreasonable? You can't loot the treasure yourself, yet you report us."

"Indeed, childish or not."

The three streams of light are three Peak Palace Supreme Treasures.

"Ha ha, I'm happy to," Eagle Abyss Demon God said leisurely, then vanished into thin air and instant‑teleported away.

"Come, let's check other small universes," the three streams of light also departed in turn.

At the same time.

A warship emitting black streams of light appeared outside the Fourth Small Universe.

"This is it, the Fourth True Lord's small universe."

"The Giant Axe Founder is inside."

"The Giant Axe moves truly fast; in such a short time it already finished scavenging the Second True Lord's small universe."

"Let's enter the small universe and rendezvous with the Giant Axe."

Voices echoed from within this Peak Palace Supreme Treasure.

These are the eighteen Universe Lords of the Primordial Universe Human Race, all of whom have arrived.

And this vessel is the Nethergate Ship, Peng Gong's Peak Palace Supreme Treasure.

The Nethergate Ship surged into the small universe, continuously instant‑teleporting to appear beside the Giant Axe Founder.

In just a moment, Chaos City Lord, Lord of Peng Gong, and others had already rendezvoused with the Giant Axe Founder.

"All Universe Lords, search for the primary treasures and resources," the Giant Axe Founder ordered.

"Understood."

"Got it."

The eighteen human Universe Lords responded.

The small universe's volume is too vast; humans cannot truly search it space by space, so extracting the main treasures within the primary space‑time is already commendable.

Unless the small universe itself does the looting, others, even after spending dozens of epochs, may not be able to retrieve all Ultimate Treasures.

Especially those treasures hidden within some World Rings, whose emanations are concealed.

Then Chaos City Lord, Lord of Peng Gong, Lord of Darkness, and others each rode a Peak Palace Supreme Treasure, voraciously siphoning possible treasure sites throughout the small universe.

As for categorizing the siphoned material later, it can wait until returning to the Primordial Universe.

……

Outside the Second Small Universe, a golden stream of light flashed.

"They've all gone to the Fifth True Lord's and Sixth True Lord's small universes; the Fourth True Lord has even been occupied by humans. Seven or eight Strongest Beings vie for loot within a single small universe—what treasures can they seize?" a voice said from within the golden Peak Palace Supreme Treasure.

Regarding the Fifth and Sixth True Lords' small universes, humans also voluntarily relinquished occupation, serving as a relatively friendly signal to the forces of the Cosmic Sea, preventing the whole Cosmic Sea from becoming hostile.

"I don't believe it—just one Giant Axe Founder can claim to have combed the entire small universe so quickly without missing anything." This is the Second Reincarnation Era's Tian Sheng Demon God, also a unique being.

"Anyway, I can't outcompete them for loot; I might as well scavenge leftovers—maybe there'll be even more gains."

Randomly, this golden Peak Palace Supreme Treasure surged into the Second True Lord's small universe.

Soon after.

"Sure enough, many places have already been searched; even the palaces have been taken, and some specialty resources of the small universe have been fully harvested," the Tian Sheng Demon God's voice inside the golden palace sounded indescribably despondent.

Yet the Tian Sheng Demon God did not give up, continuing the search, even delving into the endless depths beneath mountains, rivers, and streams.

Half a month later.

"Ha ha, I told you, there's definitely more to find," Tian Sheng Demon God exclaimed joyfully; his divine power located a Top-level Treasure within a space of the endless space‑time.

The bottom of the golden Peak Palace Supreme Treasure began siphoning, instantly pulling a triangular Top-level Treasure into the Peak Palace Supreme Treasure.

"Ha ha, continue," Tian Sheng Demon God said happily, continuing his slow search.

From the Cosmic Sea's perspective, the Small Universe of the Strongest Being spans a diameter of one hundred million light‑years.

Yet a Strongest Being's comprehension of the Space‑Time Law is near perfect, and its internal power space may exceed the external space.

A world apart in an instant is a utilization of space.

Likewise, in the Origin of the Primordial Universe, each grain of sand is a world unto itself.

When the Strongest Being of the Universe falls, the small universes decay, the endless space‑time collapses, yet a process remains whereby some Ultimate Treasures hidden within may drift into extremely deep spaces, requiring a long time before they are expelled.

If one truly wants to search earnestly, the time required is extremely long.

……

Human Creator Lord crushed the Divine Eye Clan's army, in one fell swoop slaughtering most of the Divine Eye Clan's Lords of the Universe and Strongest Beings. This matter spread quickly throughout the Cosmic Sea.

Soon not only Zi Yue Sheng Di and the East Emperor Holy Land knew.

The whole Cosmic Sea's First Reincarnation Era and Second Reincarnation Era all factions knew this.

"When encountering humans in the future, try not to provoke them."

This is a unified warning from the Strongest Beings of all factions to their subordinate Lords of the Universe.

This major event that occurred in the Cosmic Sea also quickly spread into the Primordial Universe.

The Demon Race Alliance, Insect Race Alliance, and Mechanical Race Alliance also learned of this news immediately; although they suffered heavy losses in their previous war with humans, they still had some Lords of the Universe survive, after the peace talks.

They also dispatched some Lords of the Universe to gather information in the Cosmic Sea. (End of chapter)
