The vast Ice Prison Star Belt stretched endlessly through the void.
Without warning, a faint, shimmering river of starlight materialized from nothingness itself. It spanned the entire Ice Prison Star Belt, several light-years wide, and extended infinitely forward, as if reaching toward the very edge of existence.
Within this ethereal river floated countless strange artifacts, each radiating terrifying pressure that made space itself tremble.
"The Primal Chaos City Lord!" The Sky Wolf Master ground out the name between clenched teeth.
The Primal Chaos City Lord's Thousand Treasures River avatar!
The Thousand Treasures River, a top-tier domain treasure and the unmistakable signature of this particular avatar.
He knew it. Of course he knew!
Han Jue wouldn't dare appear here and provoke him without a Universe Master from the human race backing him up!
The Primal Chaos City Lord!
Rage burned in the Sky Wolf Master's chest, but he had nowhere to vent it. He could only force it down, letting it simmer in the depths of his being.
Han Jue, seeing the familiar Thousand Treasures River, finally allowed himself to breathe easier.
The Primal Chaos City Lord walked barefoot across the surface of the Thousand Treasures River, a serene smile on his face as he gripped his weathered stone staff.
"Sky Wolf Master," the Primal Chaos City Lord said calmly, his gaze settling on the demon. "For someone of your strength and status, isn't bullying a weak human immortal beneath you?"
Bullying the weak? A weak immortal?
The Sky Wolf Master nearly laughed in bitter disbelief. Didn't the Primal Chaos City Lord see what this so-called weak immortal had just done?
An immortal with the power to injure a Universe Master, he'd never encountered anything like it!
"Primal Chaos City Lord," the Sky Wolf Master said with a cold sneer, "you and I both know what's really going on here. There's no need for pretense." He paused, then continued, "Han Jue possesses multiple high-grade treasures, most likely bestowed by your human race. You're being quite generous, aren't you? Aren't you afraid of losing them if his avatar perishes?"
"Ha! The treasures he carries have little to do with the human race, he obtained them through his own abilities," the Primal Chaos City Lord replied with a laugh. "Besides, let me ask you this: Would you, Sky Wolf Master, be willing to give your little Sky Wolf such treasures?"
Sibuwa trembled, never expecting to become part of this conversation.
Treasures?
Could he actually receive treasures? His gaze flickered toward the Sky Wolf Master before quickly dropping. He knew better than to stare.
These treasures belonged to the Sky Wolf Master to distribute. He had no right to ask for them.
The Sky Wolf Master's expression turned ice cold. "How I raise my descendants is none of your concern. Today... I have nothing more to say to you. I'm leaving."
The Sky Wolf Master, with Sibuwa in tow, quickly retreated into the Sky Wolf Palace and departed.
The Primal Chaos City Lord shook his head slightly, letting out an amused laugh.
The Thousand Treasures River trembled with power, causing the Sky Wolf Palace to shake violently before it could fully escape the domain. Only then did the Sky Wolf Master manage to teleport away.
"Han Jue, well done," the Primal Chaos City Lord praised.
Han Jue nodded slightly. This encounter had proven his strength.
Next, he only needed to continue perfecting his secret technique, formally creating the Five Evolutions Sword Qi, a peak Universe Master-level technique. Once complete, he estimated his power would approach that of a second-tier Universe Master, officially surpassing top Universe Overlords and rivaling first-tier Universe Masters!
The great opportunity Lord Ice Peak mentioned, Han Jue had a strong suspicion about what it was.
The Primordial Star!
The Primordial Star surrounded the very Origin of the Universe, arguably the closest place to the Universe's Origin in all existence.
There, countless treasures and precious artifacts awaited, drawing even Universe Masters to explore. Top-tier and peak treasures frequently appeared.
Peak treasures were enough to attract third-, fourth-, and even fifth-tier Universe Masters to fight over them!
With Han Jue's current strength, venturing to the Primordial Star was feasible enough.
But seizing top-tier treasures? Far from it.
Furthermore, Han Jue suspected that if he dared appear on the Primordial Star, alien Universe Masters would immediately besiege him.
His audacity in provoking the Sky Wolf Master succeeded only because he'd caught the demon off guard, attacked when he wasn't prepared, and had the Primal Chaos City Lord as backup.
Strength!
He had to continue improving his strength!
"Uncle-Master Chaos, I'll take my leave now. No need to give the Sky Wolf Master time to call for reinforcements," Han Jue said with a smile.
"Yes, you may go." The Primal Chaos City Lord nodded.
After Han Jue departed, the Primal Chaos City Lord ordered the two Kou Tribe Venerables to hand over Luo Feng, which shocked them greatly.
It seemed the Primal Chaos City Lord hadn't come because of Han Jue after all?
Rather, it was for this human trapped in the Ice Prison?
Humans shouldn't be offended lightly!
This thought arose simultaneously in both Kou Tribe Venerables' minds.
If last time Han Jue shocked all races because the Sky Wolf Master actively spread news of a World Master killing a Universe Venerable, this time, Han Jue's fame spreading across the universe had nothing to do with the Sky Wolf Master.
After all, the Sky Wolf Master had become the protagonist this time, not only failing to capture Han Jue but needing to use the Sky Wolf Palace just to withstand Han Jue's attacks. Quite humiliating.
The Sky Wolf Master was the type who cared deeply about his reputation.
Naturally, he wouldn't actively spread this news.
Someone else was spreading it.
"It's those two Kou Tribe Venerables."
"Spreading this message might offend both the Sky Wolf Master and the humans," Venerable Green Kou said, frowning.
Though arrogant and sometimes speaking without thinking, she knew this was dangerous.
Offending both sides simultaneously offered no benefit. Only a fool would do such a thing.
"It's fine. This was a message from the human Han Jue before he left. The humans won't blame us. The Sky Wolf Master already bears a grudge against me, and our relationship isn't good... We should join the Ancestral God Sect," Venerable Purple Kou said solemnly.
The two Venerables joined forces to lead the entire Kou Tribe in a great migration. The clan wasn't large, making the relocation relatively straightforward.
In the future, the six dangerous zones of the Wuhua Secret Realm, including the Ice Prison Star Belt, would cease to exist.
Within the Demon Clan's territory.
"That Han Jue, his growth rate is terrifying. He's already capable of injuring a Universe Master."
"Plus, the assassination attempt by the Ancestral God Sect failed."
"It seems we need to unite with the other two races. We cannot allow humanity to produce another top-tier Universe Master, or even... an Original Ancestor!"
After hearing the report from the Sky Wolf Master, the Dream Demon Ancestor thought to himself.
The Zerg...
The Machine Race...
The same realization dawned on these two races.
They must join forces. They had to!
The Human Race had already declared that if the Universe Masters of these three races personally attacked Han Jue, the Human Race's Universe Masters would also target the geniuses of the three races. Therefore, they could only seek Lone Universe Masters, or even the strongest Lone Universe Masters.
"What are your thoughts?"
In the vast universe, in a distant starry expanse, three thoughts pierced through endless spatial distance, descending upon this location. Three majestic figures vaguely took shape.
