Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

On a life planet within a domain of the human territory .

A hunchbacked and green-skinned elderly human who sported an antenna on his head stood in one of the back alleys of a bustling city, addressing a drunken human youth .

The green-skinned elderly human said in a hoarse voice, "My child, you are so young, so full of vitality . You have such a bright future ahead of you . Are you so void of fighting spirit to want to drink yourself into a stupor like that?"

The drunken youth slouched against the wall while seated on the ground, his eyes filled with sorrow . He shook his head and said, "Hopeless . All hope is gone . I have racked my brains to think of ways to contribute my best, but they were simply too strong . In this city, they may not be the strongest, but they are still in a different league where ordinary, lower-class people like myself are defenseless . They have been trifling with my feelings, teasing me but not killing me . To them, I am just a toy!"

"Life is full of miracles," the green-skinned old man said hoarsely . "Nothing is unchanging . The universe is always so mysterious and unpredictable . Anything is possible . "

"Is that so?" The wasted youth looked at the old man, then lowered his head to indulge in his beer .

The old man smiled and nodded . "Yes, anything is possible . "

Slightly taken aback, the youth sat in a daze, the beer bottle in his hands . The smile on the hunchbacked elderly's face widened, and within five short seconds, the wasted youth snapped out of his daze .

He looked around with piercing eyes as sharp as an eagle . There was a vigor in him that had been absent before . Scanning his surroundings with due vigilance, he saw the ordinary back alley and the hunchbacked old man before him . His expression registered disbelief .

"I, I, I…" he stammered . "How can I be back to where I was 100,000 years ago? I am already a sector lord . How can it… This is an illusion, but how can an illusion feel so real? But, but…!"

"My child—" the hunchbacked old man started to say .

"You—you are…" the youth said . He stared at the hunchbacked old man and recognized him . "You are the old man who provided me guidance back then . "

"Back then? Wasn't it just a little while ago?" The hunchbacked old man smiled, then vanished into thin air .

The youth stood rooted to the spot for a long time .

The wasted youth looked around and manipulated his willpower with his mind . "Domain!"

His spiritual force might not be strong, but it was comparable to that of a sector lord . Under the guidance of his willpower, he managed to produce a weak, flamed domain .

"Really, all of this is real? I… Everything that happened is real . Is it true that I have cultivated up to the stage of a sector lord? But why am I back to the most painful time of my life? Have I traveled back in time? No…"

The youth was different from before . He had cultivated the heart of a great being .

"Even if I could turn back time, I would still be unable to travel to the past . That is to say, I have experienced an illusion . But what illusion is this, where I can live in it for 100,000 years? And become a sector lord? And to have comprehended part of the universe laws?" Eyes widened in fear, the drunken youth looked around him and shouted repeatedly, "Senior! Senior! Senior…!"

However, there was no one around .

The youth shook his head . "What a pity, I missed a great opportunity! If I had followed that elderly man, I think it would have been easy to become undying . This is simply unbelievable… However, I have gained quite a fair bit, too . Hmm… Those bastards . I have killed you all in my illusion before . I shall let you face desperation once again!"

Thereafter, he left the back alley .

"Ho ho…" The hunchbacked, single-horned elderly was still in the same spot . Seeing the wasted youth leaving, he smiled .

From the beginning, the hunchbacked elderly had not moved an inch . However, if he wanted to be seen, he could make himself appear; if he did not want to be seen, the other party would not be able to see him .

Weng!

A forceful power transcended the limitless space and suddenly landed on this planet in the back alley . The surrounding space became slightly distorted . An elliptical black sphere appeared in the back alley, and it spoke .

"Stone, you are a devil master!" the black sphere said . "Even universe masters fear you, and yet you are in the mood for helping this young fellow . "

The hunchbacked old man grinned . "If you want me to kill, I shall kill . If you want me to rescue, I shall rescue . If you want me to bestow, I shall bestow! If earlier on, in the back alley, that young fellow had knelt and pled earnestly, if he had asked to see me… I would have killed him right away . " The hunchbacked old man turned to look at the elliptical black sphere and said, "Automaton, this is the human territory . What purpose does your conscious mind have for being here?" 　　

"There is something going on . " The elliptical black sphere was hovering in midair . The surrounding space was very unstable . Indistinctly, the request could be heard: "I am engaging you to kill a young fellow . "

"Is he strong?" the hunchbacked old man said . 　　



"The human, Luo Feng!" the elliptical black sphere said .

"Luo Feng?" The hunchbacked old man nodded . "I know that young fellow . When he just returned from Universe Ocean, news about him was widely spread and sought after . No wonder you are here . You automaton race, bug soldiers, and demons are all after him . Tell me, where is he now?

"The Ancestral God School, Redbud Island!" the elliptical black sphere said . 　　

"The Ancestral God School!" The old man was no longer as calm and laid-back . His eyes focused on the black rays flashing faintly . "Automaton, I am not bothered about Huge Axe; I am happy to kill that young fellow for you . But if he is in the core grounds of the Ancestral God School… asking me to kill a candidate of theirs while he's on the grounds of the Ancestral God School is a suicide mission . I've heard that the Ancestral God School has bestowed him with valuables, which shows how much they value him . "

"I have helped you before," the black sphere transmitted its voice from afar . "This time, we can call it quits . I owed you one . "

The hunchbacked elderly replied in his hoarse voice, "All right, you have my word . Tell me all the details you know about him . "

"The power of a top-tier universe overlord's godly body would probably be comparable to the rare special life forms, and he has the talent technique of dividing bodies," the black sphere continued . "Just annihilating one of his godly bodies is useless . You need to penetrate the soul… and bring all the godly bodies to complete destruction . Or you can make use of soul control! But the difficulty of using soul control is obviously much higher . Stone, you are a universe supreme master of the school of illusions! If you are unable to succeed… then no other great being in this primal universe would be able to . "

"All right, I will set off now," said the old man . "I know all of you must be waiting so impatiently . "

"I will be waiting for good news then . " The elliptical black sphere replied . 　　

Hua!

The two disappeared together one after the other . A slight tremor shook the surrounding space, then everything resumed normality . The ordinary humans of this city were completely unaware of everything that had just happened . 　　

******

In the Ancestral God secret region, in the void space surrounding Five-Color Aurora Lake, an entirely black life form was standing in the void space . There was a black aura surrounding it in winding paths, enveloping his entire being . Only a pair of black eyes could be seen, albeit indistinctly .

"The human Luo Feng? Meriting a universe supreme master to engage another universe supreme master to kill you… You should be proud of yourself . "

Redbud Island .



Luo Feng's mansion was designed like a Jiang Nan garden, boasting features like small bridges and rivers, airy pavilions, and pagodas . Luo Feng was seated at the table of one of the pagodas, sipping wine as he pondered the beast god path . He really enjoyed the peaceful days where he could devote himself to cultivation wholeheartedly, yet he knew that in the Ancestral God School, he only appeared to be safe and sound .

But as time passed, bug soldiers, demons, and the automaton race alike were losing patience! As they watched him grow continuously, how would the other three pinnacle races take it lying down? They would definitely find a way to take him down .

As for him, he had the talent technique of dividing bodies, and if it was only a material attack on one of his bodies to annihilate it, they would not achieve the result they wanted . If they wanted to attack… they would definitely focus on his soul . They could either permeate his soul and perish as one with it—like how Soaring Star Master had died—or they could try controlling his soul .

With his original earthling body making such an apparent appearance, Luo Feng did not dare to act rashly . The soul type true treasure Tower Pearl and the pinnacle true treasure Force Armor were always with him . Force Armor also had the ability to weaken attacks on his soul . Most importantly, ordinary weaker kinds of soul type true treasures would shatter when being attacked by other soul type treasures . But Tower Pearl was the core control center of Star Tower, and it could recognize its master; even supreme true treasures could not cause it to shatter . Its defense level merely matched up to an ordinary true treasure, but it was definitely trustworthy .

Tower Pearl and Force Armor, in addition to my willpower and consciousness which were at the level of a universe master, Luo Feng calculated to himself .

His massive godly body and limitless godly power had given him a powerful consciousness! Countless ordeals, changes of life-and-death inheritances, and 180 million years of cultivation had brought his willpower to the level of a universe master! He could count on these advantages! Luo Feng was certainly confident enough!

While holding his wine glass, Luo Feng pondered the beast god path . Suddenly, he looked up at the sky and became aware that something was not quite right .

"Huh?"

The moment he looked up at the area in the sky that was enveloped by the Five-Color Aurora Lake, a figure surrounded by a limitless black airflow suddenly appeared .

Shrouded as the figure was by the airflow, Luo Feng's view of him obscured . Only a pair of eyes could be seen . And what a pair of eyes it was! Just one look at them was enough to make Luo Feng shudder .

Not good…!

The shudders ran deep within him, right down to his very soul… and Luo Feng understood in an instant that this was a feeling of powerlessness he had only felt in the face of Star Ancestor and Sitting Mountain Guest .

"It's a universe supreme being!" Luo Feng realized .

Hua!

Intangible attacks were launched!

Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng!

300 feet above Luo Feng, a gigantic crack suddenly appeared in the sky .

Wrong—it was not a crack . It was an impact brought about by the collision of two spaces!

All time and space in the surroundings of the figure enveloped by the black airflow fell under his control . Even the universe laws were dismissed . The figure enveloped by black airflow was in total control over everything . And similarly, the lower space was also being controlled . One up, one down; these two spaces collided at a mere 300 feet away from Luo Feng . It was a scene more frightening than the collisions of planets!

When the two spaces collided with one another, the two strong powers manipulated their own space . Wherever the two spaces collided, a crack would appear .

"What?" Luo Feng gasped .

Luo Feng was stupefied . His power far surpassed that of top-tier universe overlords and was comparable to universe masters . His willpower and consciousness were also extremely strong, so he could instantly conclude that in the lower space, there was another universe supreme master .

"Two universe supreme masters? Fighting each other?"

Luo Feng was at a loss for a reaction .

Hua! Hua! Hua!

The skies above the Five-Color Aurora Lake were in a furious frenzy . It was Luo Feng's first time witnessing how turbulent the lake could become . What was happening to the vast Five-Color Aurora Lake was a sight resembling that of heavenly lakes collapsing in an instant .

Hong! Long! Long!

Abundant rays of light came swooping down toward the space below, surging at the black, misty figure . 　　

The black, misty figure did not budge an inch . Instead, a furious roar of rage was heard .

"Ancestor God!" the figure roared . "Are you going to stop me?"

"Virtual-Real Devil Master!" a booming voice replied . "This is the territory of my Ancestral God School!"
