Chapter 428 Who's in favor, and who's opposed?
After a long silence, Giant Axe finally couldn't help but say, "Wait a minute, isn't this leap a bit too big?"
"I know you may be hiding your strength, but even if you have tenth-tier combat power, you can only force the alien race to compromise at most."
"It's impossible to subdue alien races by strength alone. After all, within the scope of the primordial universe, we can only exert the top-tier combat power of the sixth rank, which poses no threat to the other strongest beings."
"Back in the prime of his life, the Primordial Ancestor was invincible across the universe, but he still couldn't unify the Primordial Universe because of the issue of power suppression."
Chen Yuan smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "Giant Axe, I understand everything you've said, but you've overlooked one point."
The giant axe was taken aback.
Then Chen Yuan said again, "You said that the strongest being in the universe cannot be killed within the scope of the primordial universe, but that's not true."
"Do you still remember—the Primordial Spirit Sword Intent?"
Primordial Spirit Sword Intent?!
"You mean, the secret arts of willpower can circumvent the rules of the primordial universe?"
The giant axe looked astonished, then shook his head: "But even the seventh level of primordial spirit sword intent only represents the ninth-order will. To use it to kill those strongest individuals with at least the seventh-order will is probably—"
"What if my primordial spirit sword intent has more than seven layers?"
"More than seven layers?" The giant axe was stunned for a moment, then understood Chen Yuan's meaning, and his pupils shrank immediately: "You mean, the Primordial Spirit Sword Intent has a follow-up chapter? The will of a Holy Land Lord?"
"Yes." Chen Yuan nodded slightly and explained with a smile, "Over the years, I have further improved this secret technique of willpower, increasing the upper limit from the original seven levels to ten levels."
"That is, the eighth, ninth, and tenth level secret techniques that represent the will of the Lord of the Holy Land."
"And my primordial spirit sword intent has now been cultivated to the ninth level of perfection."
Chen Yuan paused deliberately, "In other words, no one whose will does not surpass that of a true god can withstand the annihilation of my will secret technique."
"You—" The giant axe was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Not only him, but even the Primordial Ancestor was slightly surprised: "You actually opened up a follow-up chapter of the Primordial Spirit Sword Intent?"
"You've even cultivated to the ninth level?"
The Primordial Ancestor knew about the Primordial Spirit Sword Intent. After all, when Chen Yuan attended the Supreme Conference, the virtual universe he used was his version, and naturally, he could not hide anything from him.
However, at that time, the upper limit of the primordial spirit sword intent was only seven levels, and the highest level was only the will of the late stage of true god.
Therefore, although this secret art of will is strange, it can at most kill the Lord of the Universe, but it cannot change the pattern of the original universe.
However, when Chen Yuan displayed the primordial spirit sword intent at the level of "Lord of the Holy Land", the situation was completely different.
Even without reaching the ninth level of the secret technique, after crossing a major realm, the eighth level of the secret technique is enough to sweep away most True God powerhouses.
Not to mention, this power is not even affected by the original rules of the universe, and can unleash its full power, completely shattering the sense of security in the hearts of the strongest of all races.
The progenitor understood deeply that once the strongest one perished in the primordial universe, the remaining strong ones would only have two choices.
They either have to go all out and fight Chen Yuan to the death, or they have to bow down and acknowledge Chen Yuan's dominant position.
But to think that a peak sixth-tier attack could kill Chen Yuan, whose strength was at least ninth-tier or even thousandth-tier? The Primordial Ancestor believed that the strongest alien races wouldn't be that crazy.
Then the final result is clear—all races bowed down and recognized the human race as the sole overlord of the original universe.
At the same time, the giant axe also thought of this.
He turned his head slightly, his gaze meeting that of the Primordial Ancestor. The Primordial Ancestor nodded slightly, the giant axe nodded in response, and then turned back.
Chen Yuan noticed their actions, smiled slightly, and said, "I will upload the subsequent chapters of the Primordial Spirit Sword Intent to the virtual universe. Anyone whose will surpasses that of a true god can view the subsequent content unconditionally."
He was mainly referring to the Primordial Ancestor, because among everyone present, apart from the Primordial Ancestor, no one's will had surpassed that of a True God; even the Giant Axe was still stuck in the True God realm.
Yuan Zu naturally understood Chen Yuan's meaning and immediately nodded slightly, saying, "Thank you!"
His will had already reached the level of an eternal true god. Not to mention the eighth and ninth levels, he could even cultivate the tenth level secret technique that Chen Yuan had not yet mastered.
If the original ancestor had possessed such a secret technique, the human race would have already unified the primordial universe, and Chen Yuan wouldn't have needed to make a move.
The giant axe said, "Since you have such a trump card, even the alien alliance is probably not a threat. I think your idea of unifying the primordial universe has great potential."
"Then please have Giant Axe send a message back to the alien race."
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Didn't they want to sever the Donghe lineage? Perfect, I also want to take this opportunity to gather these people together."
"You want to wipe them all out in one fell swoop?" Giant Axe couldn't help but laugh.
"It might just be a case of killing the chicken to scare the monkey." Chen Yuan shook his head slightly. "The sheer number of these alien races is useful to me. Whether it's the virtual universe or the growth of the Primordial Tower, a large number of lives are needed."
"Therefore, I do not want to start a massacre; it is enough to subdue them."
"As long as these alien races are obedient enough, when I establish the Holy Land Universe in the future, there may still be a place for them there."
"So that's what you were thinking—I understand now." Giant Axe finally understood Chen Yuan's plan.
The growth of the virtual universe required him to know, and as for the Primordial Tower—it was probably related to Chen Yuan's large-scale acquisition of various remnants.
Both of these aspects are actually inseparable from the demand of a large population.
This is also why Chen Yuan subdued the alien races; his goal was to bring more lives into his system.
However, being able to subdue all races is also beneficial to the human race, at least it can provide a broader environment for human growth, and the probability of strong individuals emerging in the future will be greater than that of other races.
With the help of the Duan Donghe inheritance, even if the alien races temporarily lie low due to Chen Yuan's power, in the long run, the number of strong people in the human race will increase, and one day they will become the true sole ruler.
Therefore, Giant Axe did not object to Chen Yuan's approach. He nodded slightly and said, "Alright, I have no objection. I will contact the ancestors of the alien races and say that I want to discuss this matter in person."
"By the way, where should we choose to discuss the location? Do you have a preferred option?"
Chen Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go with the Seventh Battlefield, near the Tower of Primordial Beginning."
"The Tower of Primordial Chaos? Okay." Giant Axe nodded. "I've already replied to them. We'll discuss it in person three days from now, at the Seventh Battlefield, in front of the Tower of Primordial Chaos. I'll go with you then."
"No, everyone except the original ancestor should come."
Giant Axe looked at the others, "Regardless of whether the alien race submits or not, we must be prepared accordingly."
These cosmic lords, having now grasped Chen Yuan's strength and plans, were immediately invigorated.
They understood that their purpose in going there was both to maintain order and to allow them to intervene in the internal affairs of the alien races after the Primordial Lord had subdued them.
"I'm ready!"
"We can leave anytime!"
"I can't wait to see the Primordial Lord display his divine power."
"No rush, let the alien races prepare first." Giant Axe waved his hand. "I'll give you three days. Gather at the Virtual Universe Company, and then we'll head there together."
"no problem!"
"I'm already on my way to Virtual Universe Corporation."
"Delivery within three days!"
"Then it's settled." Chen Yuan smiled slightly and said, "We'll depart in three days."
After the meeting, Chen Yuan did not rush back to the original universe. Anyway, he had the optimization space, and teleporting back would only take a moment.
For the past three days, he has stayed on the Tomb Ship, pondering the several secret techniques that have been optimized: the Three Absolute Techniques of the Eastern River, the research method of the divine power route, the inheritance of the core Jing lineage, and the Void-level treasure refining technique.
With the cultivation space accelerating tenfold, he had gained a preliminary understanding of the three core inheritances and the Void Refining Technique, and could officially begin cultivation.
As for the research on the divine power route, due to a lack of materials, it is not appropriate for the time being and can only be left for the future.
Chen Yuan did not choose to cultivate the Broken East River Inheritance in the cultivation space. After all, although there was a ten-thousand-fold time acceleration here, it was still too slow compared to the time in the Black Pattern Stone Pillar area.
Fortunately, his primordial spirit sword intent had already reached its peak for the time being, and the Soul Devouring Beast clone had nothing to do except hone its will, so it was a good time to cultivate the three great inheritances.
As for the Tranquility lineage within melee combat, he combined it with Void-level Treasure Refining Techniques and cultivated it in the virtual universe.
Although his virtual universe can only be accelerated by ten thousand times for the time being, with an unlimited supply of materials, the treasure refining technique is progressing extremely well, and even the inheritance of the Jing lineage is quickly becoming immersed in it.
Three days had passed after Chen Yuan arranged the cultivation tasks for each of his clones.
With a single thought, Chen Yuan arrived at the Primordial Secret Realm. At this time, all the high-ranking members of the human race had arrived and gathered together under the leadership of the giant axe.
"Everyone's here." Chen Yuan teleported directly in front of Giant Axe and the others, greeting them with a smile.
"You've arrived, Chen Yuan." The giant axe nodded. "All 19 of my human race's universe lords, except for you, have arrived and are ready to depart at any time."
"In addition, the Universe Master of the Hongmeng has already gone to the Seventh Battlefield ahead of us."
"These people are quite responsible," Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"Not entirely." Giant Axe shook his head. "These people are, after all, just allies. Faced with immense temptation, even allies might betray you."
"The Hongmeng people arrived at the battlefield ahead of time, possibly to reach an agreement with the alien races first. Once the human race falls into a disadvantageous position, they will most likely turn against us."
"I won't give them that chance," Chen Yuan said with a slight smile.
Giant Axe, thinking of Chen Yuan's strength, laughed and said, "That's true."
As long as the human race is strong enough, these allies will not dare to show the slightest thought of rebellion. As the giant axe that has controlled the Hong Alliance for countless eras, it knows these people's thoughts very well.
"Now that everyone is here, we can't keep them waiting too long."
Chen Yuan said directly, "Let's go."
"Alright." The giant axe nodded and asked, "Would you like me to use my words to make them come true?"
Chen Yuan understood that by using the phrase "words become law," he could teleport everyone there at once.
Otherwise, given the distance between the two sides, even the Lord of the Universe could not arrive in an instant.
But he shook his head: "No need, I'll do it."
"You've come?" The giant axe was taken aback, and then he saw the surrounding space and time change. In an instant, he was transported from the Primordial Secret Realm to the Seventh Battlefield. Not far away was the Primordial Tower, which was thirty-three light-years away.
"You—" Seeing this, Giant Axe knew perfectly well that Chen Yuan had used some trickery. His pupils shrank instantly, and his face was filled with shock: "Words become law?!"
"Stay calm." Chen Yuan smiled. "It's just that my words have become law."
"That's all—" The giant axe was speechless for a moment. You have to know that this ability is not something that true gods cultivate, but a privilege bestowed by the primordial universe.
As far as he knew, throughout all known cycles of reincarnation, the ability to "make one's words become law" was only granted to the strongest in the universe, without exception!
Unexpectedly, Chen Yuan, merely a Lord of the Universe, has already received this honor and acquired the privilege that only the strongest can possess.
"Besides lacking a miniature universe, you're practically no different from the strongest being now."
"Giant Axe shook his head and sighed, 'Truly a miracle maker!' Chen Yuan had once again shattered his perception."
Of course, he had just spoken these words telepathically and hadn't shown them, so the others in the team thought that the teleportation that made words come true was from the giant axe, so their expressions remained relatively calm.
However, they also keenly noticed that after everyone teleported over, Giant Axe's attitude changed significantly. He even took the initiative to stay behind Chen Yuan and became a subordinate without any qualms.
This scene was also witnessed by the arriving alien races.
"Chen Yuan?!"
The Dream Demon Ancestor, the strongest among them, was the first to notice Chen Yuan's presence, and his expression immediately changed: "Impossible! Weren't you trapped in the Tomb Ship by the two holy lands and the Divine Eye Clan?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze immediately fell upon the figure at the forefront of the human race, who was none other than the Primordial Lord of the human race.
Although Chen Yuan had a great reputation before, it was limited to the three races that bordered the human race's territory. As for the distant Prison Clan and Crystal Clan, they only knew that there was such a person, but had no further contact with him.
Chen Yuan looked around and found it quite lively, with many well-known forces from the primordial universe present.
"Demon race, insect race, mechanical race, crystal race, prison race."
Chen Yuan nodded slightly. Very good. All the rulers of the universe from these top clans and their Moxia Alliance have arrived.
In addition, some leaders of powerful alliances and some lone, strongest beings in the universe also arrived.
"The Black Universe Founder, the True and False Demon God, the Calamity Universe True God, the Progenitor of Demonic Beasts, the Progenitor of Starry Sky Beasts — and Teacher Sitting Mountain Guest."
Seeing the mountain-sitting guest hiding in the corner, Chen Yuan was both amused and exasperated. His teacher really didn't miss any opportunity to watch the excitement.
Shaking his head helplessly, Chen Yuan regained his confident smile.
Under the watchful eyes of numerous powerful alien races, he took a step forward.
His figure suddenly swelled to 90,000 kilometers, standing on the ninth level of the Primordial Palace in the void, wearing the supreme armor of Heavenly Light, and holding the Azure Sky Sword which had been optimized to the Eternal Level, looking down on the many powerful figures.
"I am aware of the purpose of your visit."
"The Duan Donghe inheritance that is rumored to exist—I have indeed mastered it, and the effects of the inheritance are just as rumored."
Chen Yuan looked at the alien powerhouses who revealed greedy expressions and smiled slightly: "And I can share these inheritances with you all."
These words instantly ignited the entire scene. The human race was actually willing to hand over their inheritance?
Among the crowd, the powerful figures from the Hong Alliance also showed excited expressions, but at the same time, they also felt a sense of helplessness that the human race was so pragmatic. Wouldn't all their previous preparations have been in vain?
"However, if you wish to inherit this legacy, you must grant me a small request."
At this moment, Chen Yuan's words quelled the commotion in the room. Everyone looked at him, wondering what demands the other party would make.
For some reason, the Dream Demon Ancestor, who had dealt with Chen Yuan many times, felt uneasy. The main reason was that the other party's invincible record was chilling to think about.
"With so many of us here, and in this primeval universe, he probably won't dare to completely sever ties, right?"
Just as the Dream Demon Ancestor had this thought, Chen Yuan's next words made him change color instantly.
"I propose that humanity should be the sole ruler of the original universe."
Chen Yuan looked at the crowd and smiled, "Who agrees? Who disagrees?"
