Chapter 655 The Demon Clan Suffers Heavy Losses
Chu Yang simply smiled at the giant axe's question, without feigning mystery, and frankly said, "This is a secret technique bestowed by the origin of the universe when the divine body reaches 10,081 times the genetic potential. Luo Feng should also have a similar method."
Luo Feng nodded in agreement.
He did indeed have similar trump cards, but their power was still considerably less than what Chu Yang had just shown.
His "I am the universe" technique, once unleashed, is like a domain-type treasure, except that it can be superimposed with other domain-type treasures to achieve maximum power.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, "Senior Brother Chu Yang's talent is truly monstrous."
The group chatted for a while about the thrilling process of their breakthrough, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
Just then, the Lord of Chaos City frowned: "Everyone, although we have gained a lot this time, the great treasure in Flowing Cloud Valley, Flowing Cloud Palace, is still unclaimed."
During this period, the Lord of Chaos City stayed in the Star Tower, and he also arranged for an avatar to keep an eye on the situation of the Flowing Cloud Palace.
He paused, then continued, "It's a supreme treasure in the form of a palace, and there are currently nearly a thousand powerful individuals vying for it. Our human race currently has two top experts, Giant Axe and Chu Yang, who might give us a chance to obtain this treasure."
The Chaos City Lord's words instantly turned the relaxed atmosphere heavy.
The allure of the palace's supreme treasures is too great for anyone to resist.
After all, with the Star Tower as an example, everyone knows the significance of a palace-level supreme treasure to humanity!
"Chaos, you mean..." The giant axe looked at the Lord of Chaos, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
"What I mean is, we can discuss whether or not we should try to take it."
The Chaos City Lord said in a deep voice, "Of course, it also depends on everyone's wishes. After all, everyone has expended a lot of energy in this battle."
"I'll go!" Luo Feng was the first to speak up. "My Nine Netherworld Avatar is still intact, and my strength hasn't been greatly diminished."
Giant Axe hesitated. He had lost more than half of his divine body this time, and his strength had decreased considerably.
Other universe lords have also lost parts of their divine bodies to varying degrees, and should logically return to their original universes to recuperate for a period of time.
All eyes turned to Chu Yang, as intensely as spotlights.
He looked around and saw that these cosmic lords, more or less, were waiting for his decision with a mixture of anticipation and anxiety.
After all, Chu Yang is now one of the strongest humans!
Chu Yang didn't keep them waiting long. A confident smile appeared on his lips: "Go! Of course we'll go! How can we miss such a supreme treasure? Even if the Flowing Cloud Palace is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, we'll still brave it!"
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable firmness, as if everything was under his control.
"However," Chu Yang paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, "this time, the group consisting of myself, Giant Axe, Luo Feng, and the Universe Lord with his clone is enough!"
"What? Just the few of us?" The Chaos City Lord frowned. "The others without avatars have all returned to the Primal Universe to recuperate?"
"Yes!" Chu Yang said decisively. "Firstly, the divine bodies of the other universe lords are severely damaged and need time to recover; they would only be a burden if they went. Secondly, while more people could unleash greater power, they would also be a bigger target and more likely to attract the attention of other races. Our elite forces are actually more likely to act."
"But..." The Lord of Chaos City wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Chu Yang raising his hand.
"Brother Chaos, I know your concerns, but we are not going to confront them head-on, but rather outsmart them. The struggle for the Flowing Cloud Palace is bound to be a protracted war. If we preserve our strength and wait for the right opportunity, we will have a greater chance of winning."
Chu Yang patiently explained, "Besides, with the three of us—me, Giant Axe, and Luo Feng—working together, we can even put up a fight against a tenth-tier attack!"
"And more importantly, Luo Feng has the Star Tower. Even if we're in dire straits, we can retreat back into the Star Tower in time, and then no one can do anything to us!"
Chu Yang's words silenced the Lord of Chaos City.
He had to admit that Chu Yang's analysis made a lot of sense.
Giant Axe and Luo Feng nodded in agreement, their trust in Chu Yang now bordering on blind faith.
"Alright! Since Chu Yang agrees, let's go give it a shot! Damn it, I've never been afraid of anyone!"
Giant Axe slapped his thigh and laughed heartily. His rough voice carried a hint of excitement, as if he could already see the most powerful treasure beckoning to him.
Although the other universe lords were somewhat disappointed that they could not personally participate in this struggle, they still chose to obey Chu Yang's arrangements for the sake of the future of humanity.
Thus, the human army split into two groups: one returned to the primordial universe to recuperate, while the other, led by Chu Yang, marched in a mighty force towards the Flowing Cloud Palace.
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes, like a lurking cheetah, scrutinizing the various powerful figures from different races around him who were eager to make their move.
The light emanating from the Flowing Cloud Palace was not a temptation in his eyes, but a fuse that ignited chaos.
Giant Axe and Luo Feng knew that a head-on confrontation was merely reckless courage; only by outsmarting the enemy could they emerge victorious in this chaotic battle.
"Giant Axe, Luo Feng, and Senior Brother Chaos, listen to me!"
Chu Yang lowered his voice, a hint of coldness in it, "Let's not rush to seize the Flowing Cloud Palace. Everyone wants a piece of this fat piece of meat. Let's weaken the other forces first. Once the number of powerful individuals is reduced, I'll be confident I can claim ownership of the Flowing Cloud Palace!"
Upon hearing this, a glint of excitement flashed in the giant axe's eyes. He rubbed his hands together and exclaimed, "Great idea! Damn it, I've long disliked those demon race's universe lords. Why not start by taking them out on them!"
Luo Feng, however, was relatively cautious, frowning slightly as he said, "The strength of the demon race should not be underestimated, and the Dream Ancestor Palace is their core location. A surprise attack would probably not be easy."
"It's precisely because it's difficult that it's so valuable!"
Chu Yang's lips curled into a sly smile. "We can sneak up on the Dream Ancestor Palace first, and then catch them off guard with a brutal attack. After all, their Dream Ancestor Palace is just an ordinary peak-level treasure. If we launch a full-scale sneak attack, we might be able to kill the Universe Lord inside!"
The group reached a consensus and quietly left the cover of the meteorite. Riding on the giant axe, a palace treasure, they stealthily made their way towards the Dream Ancestor Palace of the demon race like ghosts.
And under the allure of numerous energies and treasures, the demon race did not find anything particularly special about the palace's treasures!
However, just as they were about to reach their target, a powerful aura suddenly descended, like an invisible giant net, enveloping them.
"Oh no! It's the Mechanical Race Father God!" Luo Feng's expression changed, and he exclaimed in a low voice.
If we were to ask who among all the powerful beings present possessed the strongest detection capabilities, it would undoubtedly be the Mechanical Father God.
His detection waves covered almost the entire Flowing Cloud Valley. No slightest movement could escape his perception, and he immediately analyzed that the palace treasures near the demon race camp were intentional.
However, he wouldn't tell the demon race, since the mechanical race and the demon race were mortal enemies in the original universe. Weakening the other side would be a good thing for him!
Chu Yang and the other two immediately held their breath, not daring to move an inch, like three cold stones, blending into the surrounding environment.
The probing wave from the Machine God swept across their hiding place, nearly exposing them.
Just at this critical moment, a commotion suddenly arose in the distance, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly shattering the tranquility of Flowing Cloud Valley.
"What's going on?" Giant Axe asked in a low voice.
"Look over there!" Luo Feng pointed into the distance, where a dazzling light shot into the sky, heading straight for the Flowing Cloud Palace.
"It's the demon race! They actually dared to try to recognize the Zhuyun Palace at this time!" A hint of surprise flashed in Chu Yang's eyes.
Within the light, a colossal palace-shaped treasure was revealed—the very same pinnacle palace-type treasure possessed by the Universe Lord under the command of the Demon Ancestor. This audacious act instantly drew the attention of all the powerful figures present.
"idiot!"
The roar of the Demon Ancestor resounded through the void. He knew that it was his subordinate, the Lord of the Universe, who had lost his temper and made such a foolish move.
The next moment, more than eight hundred dazzling attacks poured down like a torrential rain, fiercely bombarding the palace-shaped treasure.
boom!
With a deafening roar, the palace-like treasure was instantly reduced to dust. The demon lord inside didn't even have time to let out a scream before he vanished into nothingness.
The Demon Ancestor Zhen and the Demon Ancestor Meng of the Demon Clan turned ashen-faced. In this instant, all twelve Lords of the Universe had perished.
Although eight of the universe lords had avatars and were not truly dead, the losses were still extremely heavy.
Zhen Yaozu suppressed his anger and quickly collected the treasures left behind by the fallen cosmic lords.
Chu Yang and his two companions hid in the shadows and witnessed the entire scene.
Giant Axe couldn't help but chuckle, "Haha, these demons are incredibly stupid. They've already suffered such heavy losses without us even lifting a finger."
Chu Yang shook his head, a profound light flashing in his eyes: "No, this is just the beginning. If we eliminate these under the command of the Dream Demon Ancestor..."
He suddenly reached out and pointed in the direction of the Dream Ancestor Palace, "Look, the Dream Demon Ancestor has left the palace!"
Giant Axe and Luo Feng looked in the direction Chu Yang was pointing, and sure enough, the figure of the Dream Demon Ancestor appeared outside the Dream Ancestor Hall, seemingly inspecting something.
Just then, Chu Yang's lips curled into a cold smile: "Now!"
A cold glint flashed in Chu Yang's eyes, and he shouted, "Now! Giant Axe, let's go!"
Upon hearing this, the giant axe did not waste any words, and its immense divine power surged wildly into the palace's treasure.
The palace treasure, which had been slowly moving forward, suddenly shot through the void like an arrow and headed straight for the Dream Ancestor Palace.
"attack!"
Chu Yang's voice echoed within the palace's treasure, like a thunderclap, resounding in the ears of the giant axe and Luo Feng.
Chu Yang and Giant Axe were the first to be attacked, and the other human universe lords also did their best, burning their divine bodies and using all kinds of treasures and secret techniques to attack the Dream Ancestor Palace with reckless abandon.
In the distance, the Dream Demon Ancestor suddenly turned around, and upon seeing this scene, its eyes widened in fury, letting out an angry roar: "Damn humans! You're courting death!"
He never expected that these humans would be so bold as to launch a surprise attack while he was away from the Dream Ancestor Palace.
With a flash, the Dream Demon Ancestor transformed into a streak of light and sped towards the Dream Ancestor Palace.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
The fierce attack, when it struck the Dream Ancestor Palace, caused it to tremble violently, clearly unable to withstand an attack that had reached the tenth rank.
The Dream Ancestor Palace is, after all, only a peak-level treasure, not even considered top-grade among peak-level treasures. This is why Chu Yang and the others set their sights on this treasure.
If they are hiding an extremely powerful treasure, then Chu Yang has no way to stop them.
"Haha, you scum of the demon race, die!" Chu Yang laughed loudly and, together with the giant axe, entered the Star Tower released by Luo Feng.
As soon as they entered, a barrage of fierce attacks bombarded the Star Tower.
At this moment, the powerful figures from other races joined forces.
At this point, whoever stood out would be attacked by everyone. Chu Yang knew this, so he instructed Luo Feng to open the Star Tower immediately after the attack and let them in.
The timing was perfect!
Outside the Star Tower, a torrent of multicolored energy surged wildly, crashing against the shore like raging waves, producing a deafening roar.
Inside, Chu Yang and the others remained as steady as Mount Tai. Luo Feng sat cross-legged, controlling the Star Tower with a solemn expression, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
Watching from the sidelines, Giant Axe was terrified and couldn't help but ask, "Luo Feng, can you hold on?"
Luo Feng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Not bad. These bastards are only capable of this much. They want to break through my Star Tower? Dream on!"
Chu Yang stood with his hands behind his back, his expression calm, as if everything was under his control.
He looked at the powerful figures from various races outside, who were attacking frantically like trapped beasts, and a cold smile appeared on his lips: "Let them make a scene, the more they make a scene, the better."
Outside the Dream Ancestor Palace, the mournful roar of the Dream Demon Ancestor resounded throughout the universe.
He watched helplessly as his palace treasures were razed to the ground, leaving only ruins. The rage in his heart was like a volcanic eruption, threatening to consume him.
"Aaaaah! Humans, I will never let you live under the same sky!" The Dream Demon Ancestor was like a madman, his eyes bloodshot and his whole body trembling.
Eight or nine out of ten of the cosmic lords under his command perished here, a loss he could not bear.
Just then, a divine thought entered his mind: "Dream Demon Ancestor, calm down! Now is not the time to act rashly."
It was the voice of the Demon Ancestor Zhen. The Demon Ancestor Meng took a few deep breaths, struggling to suppress his anger, and transmitted his voice, "Demon Ancestor Zhen, these humans have gone too far! I will make them pay the price!"
Zhen Yaozu's voice carried a hint of helplessness: "I know, but now we must calm down and plan carefully. We have already lost twenty Universe Lords. If this continues, the demon race will truly be finished."
Dream Demon Ancestor fell silent; he knew that Zhen Demon Ancestor was right.
Apart from the two strongest individuals, they now only have two universe lords left, who are completely powerless to contend with the human race.
"Then what should we do?" The Dream Demon Ancestor's voice was filled with helplessness.
After a moment's thought, Zhen Yaozu said, "Let's retreat to the Primordial Universe first and preserve our strength. Then, we should contact other races to fight against the Human Race together. With the Human Race so arrogant, the other races certainly won't stand idly by."
The Dream Demon Ancestor nodded, glanced hatefully in the direction of the Star Tower, turned and flew out of Flowing Cloud Valley, quickly disappearing from sight. (End of Chapter)
