Chapter 463

Inside Cold Cliff Fortress, Xiao Yu stood up and waved his hand to cancel the time acceleration.

Looking in his mind at the treasures represented by the two remaining coordinates of the Cosmic Vessel, Xiao Yu still felt a stir.

Although the World Seed no longer needs these treasures to nurture the laws, Xiao Yu, as a Treasure Refining Master, can use the materials to forge precious ultimate treasures.

He could even refine them into astonishingly powerful Strongest Supreme Treasures.

"First go check the control room of the Cosmic Vessel, then search for those two ultimate treasures," Xiao Yu planned in his mind.

Immediately, Xiao Yu rode Cold Cliff Fortress out of the towering palace, and before his eyes lay countless palace complexes, an endless sea of palaces, each identical to the one he had just emerged from.

"This must be the whole treasure vault!" Xiao Yu exclaimed, "If these treasures could be taken freely, perhaps we could equip every Human Race Venerable Rank and above with a full set of Strongest Supreme Treasures."

Xiao Yu muttered "what a pity" in his mind and left the endless palace complex reluctantly.

After leaving the palace complex, Xiao Yu arrived in a void.

In this void spanning nearly ten thousand light‑years, there was no danger nor any structures.

After the Three Thousand Blade Domain probed and found no danger, Xiao Yu instantly teleported, repeatedly and continuously.

In just a moment, Xiao Yu was stunned.

He saw a massive structure in the void, its six faces made of walls forged from unknown metal, each wall nearly fifty thousand light‑years tall and fifty thousand light‑years wide.

The walls were covered with intricate Secret Patterns.

The space within roughly a thousand light‑years around the walls was frozen, preventing instant teleportation.

Xiao Yu piloted Cold Cliff Fortress at over one hundred thousand times the speed of light, circling the walls once, which took nearly ten years, yet he found no door.

"How exactly can we enter the control core of the Cosmic Vessel?" Xiao Yu pondered, "Perhaps it has to do with the Secret Patterns on these walls; they seem to have identification functions."

Creating walls with information‑identifying Secret Patterns is merely a minor trick.

……

Primordial Universe.

On Primeval Star designated No. 02933, Hun Dun currents surged, forming a barrier spanning hundreds of billions of kilometers, resembling an isolated tiny universe.

This is the "I Am the Universe" that Luo Feng performed after burning his divine power upon attaining the Universe Venerable rank.

Earlier, after Luo Feng was promoted to Universe Venerable and re‑entered the Primeval Star, he was blocked by strong forces such as the Northern Frontier Alliance and the Mechanical Race Alliance.

After becoming a Universe Venerable, Luo Feng obtained the Star Tower, his power surged dramatically, and he no longer held back, unleashing himself completely.

He consecutively killed over 800 Universe Venerables.

This drew the arrival of the Lord of Pigeon and other Lords of the Universe from the Northern Frontier Alliance; the Human Race's Dragon Xing Zhuzhu, who was already exploring the Primeval Star, also descended immediately to aid Luo Feng against the Lord of Pigeon and others.

Later, as more Lords of the Universe from the Northern Frontier Alliance, Mechanical Race Alliance, and other forces gathered, Luo Feng shattered the rescue metal that the Chaos City Lord had given him.

When the Chaos City Lord arrived, the two sides seemed evenly matched; amidst thousands of Universe Venerables besieging him, Luo Feng also held off the continual assaults of the Lord of Pigeon and another Lord of the Universe.

He deployed "I Am the Universe", trapping the two Lords of the Universe while using a micro‑universe to swiftly crush the over 6,000 Universe Venerables pursuing Luo Feng.

The massive micro‑universe was, to those Universe Venerables, like an endless gigantic steel plate they could not resist.

"Ah."

"No!"

Accompanied by endless roars, all over 6,000 Universe Venerables fell.

……

Luo Feng's hard resistance against two Lords of the Universe on the Primeval Star, annihilating over 6,000 Universe Venerables in a single battle, spread rapidly throughout the Primordial Universe.

When Xiao Yu learned of this, it was already before the Giant Axe Conference.

……

Virtual Universe, Great Axe Plane.

On either side of the long table, the Chaos City Lord, the Lord of Darkness, and other Human Race Lords of the Universe were all present.

The Giant Axe Founder and Xiao Yu sat on the main seat.

"Believe it, everyone has already heard: my fellow Human, Luo Feng, fought the Lord of Pigeon on the Primeval Star for a long time and single‑handedly eliminated over 6,000 alien Lords of the Universe. Luo Feng now possesses the combat power of a Lord of the Universe," the Chaos City Lord said, "Since he has that power, he should attain the status of a Lord of the Universe."

"Therefore I propose Luo Feng become the twentieth Lord of the Universe of our Human Race," the Chaos City Lord continued.

"I agree; I have seen Luo Feng's power with my own eyes," the Dragon Xing Zhuzhu added.

"Although Luo Feng can fight the Lord of Pigeon, that Lord is merely a newly promoted Lord of the Universe of the Northern Frontier Alliance and is quite weak," the Lord of Void Gold said, "I disagree; this would be like pulling seedlings to help them grow. We should wait until Luo Feng formally ascends to Lord of the Universe before elevating his status."

The Lord of Void Gold is a Lord of the Universe of the Great Axe Battle Arena, and he does not wish to see the Human Race's upper echelons of the Virtual Universe lineage occupy an absolute position.

Now Xiao Yu's voice within the Virtual Universe lineage is comparable to that of the Giant Axe Founder; in voting power, the Virtual Universe is already on par with their Great Axe Battle Arena.

Adding another Lord of the Universe would be extremely detrimental to their Great Axe Battle Arena.

Consequently, each Lord of the Universe of the Great Axe Battle Arena voiced opposition.

"Indeed, for Luo Feng now, cultivation and growth remain the top priority; premature involvement in Human Race high‑level affairs is not beneficial to his development," the Lord of Desolate Inspection also disagreed.

On this matter, which does not concern the fate of the Human Race, each Lord of the Universe has different views, representing their own interests, making consensus hard to reach.

Especially now, if Luo Feng becomes a Lord of the Universe, the Virtual Universe lineage will gain an extra vote.

That would be disadvantageous for all of them.

"I agree," the Lord of Peng Gong said, "Just as the Creator Lord, before his promotion to Lord of the Universe, was granted a corresponding status because his strength was comparable to a Lord of the Universe; now he even shares the same status as the Giant Axe Founder. We are all the highest tier of the Human Race, and when making decisions we must not favor some over others, nor change our principles."

The Lord of Peng Gong's words caused the five Lords of the Universe of the Great Axe Battle Arena present to all turn their gaze toward the Creator Lord, staring at his expression.

Afraid he might get angry.

Now, the real decision‑making power over many Human Race matters lies with the Giant Axe Founder and Xiao Yu.

Such as the pricing of Ultimate Treasures, the confirmation of Contribution Points, etc., all have already been jointly determined by Xiao Yu and the Giant Axe Founder within the Virtual Universe System.

Xiao Yu scanned the room and then said, "Luo Feng already possesses the combat power of a Lord of the Universe; since he has such power, he should be granted the status of a Lord of the Universe."

"Everyone raise your hands to vote," the Giant Axe Founder said.

"Agree," the Chaos City Lord said.

"Agree."

"Agree."

All the Lords of the Universe present, except for the five Lords of the Universe from the Great Axe Battle Arena lineage, agreed.

"Agree." Xiao Yu laughed.

"Agree." the Giant Axe Founder also agreed.

"I also agree."

Finally, the Lord of Void Gold and the other four Lords of the Universe also agreed.

Finally Luo Feng became Lord of the Universe, receiving unanimous approval. (End of chapter)
