Chapter 646 The Intimidation of the Star Tower
Chapter 646 The Intimidation of the Star Tower
"Actually..." Luo Feng suddenly spoke, breaking the silence in the room, "I do have an idea."
All eyes were on Luo Feng.
Luo Feng smiled slightly and said, "Since we can't keep it a secret, why don't we... leak this news out!"
Luo Feng's words were astonishing, leaving all the universe lords present stunned.
"Spill it out?" The Lord of Darkness frowned. "Luo Feng, what do you mean by this? Do you intend to hand over this supreme treasure to someone else?"
Luo Feng smiled and said, "Of course, it's not about handing it over to someone else, but rather... sharing it!"
He paused, then continued, "Instead of fighting to the death to defend it, which might ultimately fail, we should announce that a supreme treasure is about to be born in Flowing Cloud Valley, and allow various forces from the Cosmic Sea to send people to guard it!"
The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. The idea was too audacious, even a little crazy.
After pondering for a moment, the Lord of Chaos City asked, "Luo Feng, please explain your thoughts in detail."
"It's very simple!"
Luo Feng explained, "We'll just announce it directly to the public: a supreme treasure is about to be born in Flowing Cloud Valley. Any race can send people to guard it and jointly maintain the stability of Flowing Cloud Valley until the treasure is born. Of course, the premise is that they must abide by the rules we set."
"Rules?" Chu Yang asked. "What rules?"
"First, private battles are prohibited in Flowing Cloud Valley before the treasure is born; second, after the treasure is born, everyone shall compete for it based on their own abilities."
Third, no ethnic group may damage the environment of Liuyun Valley in any way.
Luo Feng rattled off three rules in one breath.
The Lord of Darkness remained somewhat worried: "Even if they agree on the surface, who can guarantee they'll actually keep their word? What if they secretly sabotage us?"
"Therefore, we need to establish a comprehensive oversight mechanism!"
Luo Feng, confident in his plan, said, "We can establish a joint enforcement team, composed of strong individuals from various races, to oversee the actions of all factions. Any violations discovered will be severely punished immediately!"
"With the Star Tower in my possession and the advantageous terrain, they wouldn't dare to completely ignore us. If they really anger me, I can simply cover this space with the Star Tower and defend it for a million epochs. No matter if their strongest beings or even the Lords of the Universe join forces to attack, they absolutely cannot break through my Star Tower!"
Luo Feng revealed an aura of dominance over the world. The Star Tower could reach tens of thousands of light-years in size. It stood in the outer battlefield for countless eras, and no powerful figure had been able to take it away.
The Chaos City Lord's eyes lit up: "That's a great idea! This way, we can not only reduce the pressure on our defenses, but also utilize the strength of other races to maintain the stability of Flowing Cloud Valley, and even have them check and balance each other!"
After all, this is a supreme treasure of the palace type. With it in hand, even the strongest person is helpless!
Chu Yang nodded: "It is indeed a good idea, but we still need to discuss carefully how to implement it."
"Mutual checks and balances? Ha!"
The Lord of Dragons snorted coldly and shook his head, saying, "Luo Feng, you're oversimplifying things! Aren't those guys all cunning and treacherous? Do you think they'll just obediently listen to you!"
"Long Xing is right!" the Lord of Darkness agreed. "The temptation of this supreme treasure is too great; who can guarantee they won't take the risk?"
Luo Feng, however, remained unfazed, a confident smile playing on his lips: "Therefore, we need a deterrent that will prevent them from acting recklessly!"
As he spoke, he flipped his hand, and a miniature tower appeared in his palm, emitting a faint golden light. "You all should recognize this, right?"
Everyone recognized it immediately; it was none other than Luo Feng's most famous treasure—the Star Tower!
"The Star Tower?!" The Dragon Lord's eyes widened. "You...you want to use the Star Tower to suppress them?"
"No!" Luo Feng's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he said, "The Star Tower is enough to cover half of Flowing Cloud Valley. If anyone breaks the rules, I will activate the Star Tower directly, trapping that unborn supreme treasure inside, ensuring that no one can obtain it!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
They had witnessed the power of the Star Tower firsthand; back in the extraterrestrial battlefield, even the strongest beings in the universe could not budge it in the slightest.
If we really do that, then it is indeed a possible solution.
However, if that happens, many races might join forces to deal with humanity. At that time, even if humanity has the Giant Axe, the strongest being in the universe, it would still be no match for so many powerful beings combined.
"Luo Feng, have you gone mad? You're inviting a wolf into the house!" The Dragon Lord glared, his spittle almost landing on Luo Feng's face.
"Old Dragon, calm down." The Lord of Chaos City waved his hand, signaling the Lord of Dragons to calm down. "Luo Feng's plan is risky, but it's not entirely unfeasible. Rather than bearing the pressure alone, we might as well stir things up and maybe we can reap the benefits."
After much debate, the Lord of Chaos City finally made the final decision: "Do as Luo Feng says! When have we humans ever been afraid of anything?"
Subsequently, the Lord of Chaos convened a clan meeting, which was attended by all the universe lords of humanity. After learning of the Lord of Chaos's proposal, they all nodded in agreement.
After all, the allure of this treasure was simply too great, so great that even the human race dared not possess it alone, nor did they have the strength to guard it!
A day later, the Lord of Chaos City used various information channels to spread the news that a supreme treasure of the palace type was about to be born in Flowing Cloud Valley.
The news caused an uproar in the Cosmic Sea.
Even in the primordial universe, countless powerful races and groups were excited.
Supreme power and treasure!
Such a treasure, unheard of for countless eons, is about to appear in the world!
Countless powerful individuals went mad for it, and various races and forces across the universe began to stir with ambition.
For those strongest beings in the universe who already possess supreme treasures, ordinary supreme treasures, while good, offer limited improvement to their own strength. It would be better to use them to enhance the strength of their descendants.
But the problem is that this is an extremely powerful treasure of the palace type!
Its importance far surpasses that of ordinary supreme treasures!
For those who travel alone, the most powerful treasures are the most coveted items.
With it, one can venture into perilous places and seek opportunities to break free from the cycle of reincarnation.
The Divine Eye Clan, a powerful clan that stood at the pinnacle in the first era of reincarnation, gathered its seven strongest members in a solemn atmosphere.
"We must obtain the treasure of Flowing Cloud Valley!"
The strongest member of the Divine Eye Clan spoke with a firm tone. He was the Sixth True Lord, a disciple of the First True Lord. His strength was average among the seven True Lords, and he also possessed a supreme treasure of the soul type.
"This is not only about the future of our people, but also about whether we can go further and uncover that ultimate secret!"
The Third God nodded: "I agree, but this time let's send more powerful cosmic lords. As for the strongest, you two, Sixth and Fifth, will take their places!"
After some discussion, the Divine Eye Clan decided to send a powerful lineup consisting of two of their strongest members and twenty Universe Lords, determined to win.
Powerful races from the Cosmic Sea, such as the Skeleton Clan and the Firefly Clan, have also dispatched their elite forces to Flowing Cloud Valley.
For a time, Liuyun Valley became the hottest topic.
In the primordial universe.
The four strongest beings in the universe—the Zerg, the Machine Race, and the Demon Race—appeared simultaneously on the edge of their respective territories.
The two strongest members of the demon race, Meng Cha and Zhen Jiao, have both arrived, clearly showing their interest in the supreme treasure that is about to be born.
The Zerg Queen looked at the other three: "Dreamtea, Tremor, and Mech, you've all heard about it, haven't you? About the Flowing Cloud Valley!"
"Of course I've heard!"
The mechanical father god's voice was grating, like the scraping of metal, as he said, "A supreme treasure of the palace type, a treasure rarely seen even across countless eras! It would be extremely useful even to us old folks, but it is even more crucial for the future of our race!"
The Demon Lord of Dream Tea chuckled, covering his mouth: "Mechanical, you're still so impatient for quick success. The news of this supreme treasure has only just spread; who knows if it's true or false? What if it's a trap set by some old geezer?"
The Lord of Zhenjiao said, "Mengcha, caution is a good thing, but we can't be too timid. Even if there's danger, we have to take the plunge! Who can resist the temptation of a supreme treasure of the palace type?"
"This time, both Mengcha and I from our demon race will personally go!"
The Zerg Queen's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Since that's the case, let's not waste any more time. Prepare yourselves and set off as soon as possible!"
The Mechanical Father God nodded: "I propose that we form an alliance. After all, many of the races in the Cosmic Sea have extremely powerful strongest individuals, even you and I are no match for them!!"
"Alliance? Hmph, machines, we three races have been enemies for years!"
The Zerg Queen let out a cold laugh. "When it comes to the treasure, won't we still have to fight each other to the death?!"
Master of Dream Tea: "The Queen Mother is right. This kind of cooperation is nothing but a mirage. In other words, if we obtain that supreme treasure in the future, how will it be distributed? Mechanics, you should save your breath."
A flash of red light appeared in the eyes of the Mechanical Father God, his cold, mechanical voice remaining unmoved: "This alliance is for everyone's good. Does the Mother Queen perhaps believe that your Zerg or Demon race can single-handedly contend against the strongest beings in the entire cosmic sea?"
Zhenjiao: "The mechanical suggestion makes sense. This treasure is too tempting, and fighting alone is too risky. Why don't we join forces temporarily, and then each rely on our own abilities when we reach Flowing Cloud Valley and the treasure is about to be revealed?"
Mengcha: "That makes sense, I agree!"
The mechanical father god's emotionless voice rang out: "I'm simply trying to maximize efficiency and reduce unnecessary losses. Besides, even within an alliance, there are checks and balances; who can guarantee you won't stab us in the back?"
The Lord of Zhenjiao said in a deep voice, "Then it's settled. We'll form an alliance for now, and then we'll each rely on our own abilities when we get to Liuyun Valley. I hope you won't disappoint me then."
"Since you've agreed, I have no objections!" The Zerg Queen's beautiful eyes flickered, and she finally nodded in agreement.
……
In the vast ocean of space, a jet-black spaceship was hurtling toward Flowing Cloud Valley at an astonishing speed. Inside the spaceship, a man dressed in a long black robe, with a cold and stern face, sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.
"Sixth True Lord, we have arrived at the outer edge of Flowing Cloud Valley." A respectful voice rang out.
The man slowly opened his eyes, two beams of light shooting out as if they could pierce through the void: "Very good. Pass down the order: all universe lords, prepare yourselves. We will soon arrive at Flowing Cloud Valley. This place belongs to the Inclined Peak Realm, one of the three forbidden lands of the Cosmic Sea!"
"yes!"
……
At this moment, a large number of powerful individuals have gathered around the outer perimeter of Liuyun Valley. They come from various races in the Cosmic Sea, and there are even quite a few lone experts.
Each of them exuded a powerful aura, their eyes burning as they stared intently at the palace treasure deep within Flowing Cloud Valley, which was already more than half-exposed, awaiting the full emergence of this treasure.
According to their speculation, this treasure should have been created within this era.
Outside Liuyun Valley, a dense swarm of powerful individuals from various races swept through like locusts, creating a deafening roar.
In the distance, a palace-like treasure, half exposed, emitted a faint golden light.
"So many of those universe lords from the Machine Race have come too!"
The Lord of the Shock Horn said in a gruff voice, "There aren't many Universe Lords of the Machine Race, only ten. And now seven of them have arrived!"
The Lord of Dream Tea covered his mouth and chuckled: "Zhenjiao, look at the Zerg, haven't they also sent nine Universe Lords?"
She glanced at the Zerg Queen not far away, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes.
The Zerg Queen naturally sensed the gaze of the Lord of Dream Tea.
She snorted coldly, ignoring them, and focused on directing her subordinates to occupy the best positions.
At that moment, a ripple appeared in the distance, and the human army arrived.
The leader, the Chaos City Lord, wore a star-studded robe and had a restrained aura, yet he gave off an unfathomable feeling.
He was followed by the Lord of Icebound, Luo Feng, Chu Yang, and others.
As for the founder of the giant axe, he is currently in seclusion in a hidden place on the outskirts of the Peak Realm. Of course, he has also left an avatar in the Primal Universe so that he can come over immediately if needed!
Luo Feng's gaze was fixed on the half-exposed palace treasure, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.
With a thought, the Star Tower instantly appeared, hovering above the treasure like a giant black disc, enveloping it.
This move caused an uproar throughout the room.
"What does the human race mean by this? Do they want to monopolize the treasure?"
"The Star Tower! This is the most precious treasure of the human race!"
"Hmph, do they really think they're the overlords of the cosmic sea?"
Various opinions arose one after another, filled with hostility and greed.
One of the leaders of the Nine Realms Alliance, an energy being, chuckled sinisterly, "Humans have quite the appetite; aren't they afraid of overeating?"
"If you want to eat it all by yourself, you'll have to ask us first!"
The Flame Emperor of the Flame God Clan stared coldly at the Star Tower, but a storm raged within him: "That damned Mountain-Sitting Guest actually gave such a supreme treasure as the Star Tower to Luo Feng, while giving me a peak-level treasure instead! I refuse to accept this!!"
The Heart-Piercing Lord of the Thorn Ring Alliance: "Humans, you are courting death!"
Faced with the doubts and threats of the crowd, the Chaos City Lord remained calm and said indifferently, "Everyone, my human race has no intention of monopolizing this treasure. It's just that the appearance of this treasure is bound to cause some accidents. My human race is only resorting to this measure for everyone's safety."
"Bullshit! You clearly want to take it all for yourselves!" the Lord of Absolute Beacon roared.
"Chaos, stop pretending!" Emperor Yan roared in response.
Just then, the two strongest beings in the universe, the Primordial Island Master and the Starry Sky Ancestor, also arrived at Flowing Cloud Valley.
"Humans, aren't you being a bit too domineering?" The Lord of Shihua Island spoke calmly, yet with an undeniable air of authority.
The Primordial Ancestor of the Stars did not speak, but simply stood there quietly, emanating a suffocating sense of oppression.
The atmosphere was tense, and a major battle seemed imminent. (End of Chapter)
