The moment Luo Fan saw the other party, he instantly recognized his identity.
Luo Fan remembered clearly the information about the Universe Masters of the Primal Universe and the experts of the Universe Sea.
So when he saw the enemy, he immediately knew this was definitely not a coincidence.
The person opposite him was the Demon Race's Lord Nianjiao.
According to the Human Race's records, Lord Nianjiao of the Demon Race spent most of his time in the Inclined Peak Realm.
As a fifth-tier Universe Master, his next step was to break through and become a Universe Strongest.
This threshold was extremely difficult to cross.
Therefore, Lord Nianjiao had been searching for an opportunity to break through within the Inclined Peak Realm.
But now, Lord Nianjiao, who should have been in the Inclined Peak Realm, had actually appeared here.
Moreover, he appeared precisely when Luo Fan and Lord Ice Peak were heading to the Universe Sea.
Could there really be such a coincidence in the world?
…
"Teacher, it's Lord Nianjiao!"
Luo Fan looked at Lord Ice Peak beside him and spoke.
Because this was only an incarnation, Lord Ice Peak was using only ordinary supreme treasures at the moment.
Upon hearing Luo Fan's words, Lord Ice Peak's expression eased slightly.
Although Lord Nianjiao was extremely powerful,
and could even instantly kill this incarnation of his,
as Luo Fan's teacher, Lord Ice Peak knew his disciple very well.
With Luo Fan's strength, it was completely impossible for Lord Nianjiao to kill him quickly.
As long as it was not a Universe Strongest from an alien race, things were manageable.
Even if the three races' Universe Strongest rushed over from the Primal Universe now, it would take several days.
As for Giant Axe, because there were wormholes established along the way by Luo Fan's incarnations,
his arrival would be very fast.
"We should retreat first."
"There's a wormhole established by your incarnation ahead."
"We can leave this place first."
"Anyway, Lord Nianjiao can't use your wormholes."
"It's still easy to shake him off."
As he spoke, Lord Ice Peak prepared to take Luo Fan and teleport away.
However, a strange glint flashed in Luo Fan's eyes.
He turned to Lord Ice Peak and said,
"Teacher, tell me…"
"If a fifth-tier Universe Master were suppressed, would the Demon Race panic?"
Upon hearing this, Lord Ice Peak's expression changed immediately.
"What are you planning to do?"
"Lord Nianjiao possesses peak fifth-tier strength."
"His will is extremely powerful."
"On top of that, his configuration of supreme treasures is excellent."
"Even if my true body were here, I could only flee."
Luo Fan naturally knew all of this.
Moreover, the incarnation standing before Lord Nianjiao had already been instantly killed.
Yes, instantly killed.
In less than a second, Lord Nianjiao had slain one of Luo Fan's incarnations.
Although the incarnation's divine body was relatively large,
one second was enough time for a Universe Master to strike countless times.
Lord Nianjiao already had fifth-tier strength.
The incarnation, however, was merely barely second-tier.
So if the incarnation's divine body had not been large enough, Lord Nianjiao could have killed it with a single move.
It was only because the divine body was large that Lord Nianjiao had to use several secret techniques.
…
Looking at the place where the incarnation had originally stood, Lord Nianjiao narrowed his eyes.
He was now completely certain that the figure just now had been Luo Fan's incarnation.
Because after the other party died, nothing was left behind.
Moreover, although the strength was not high, the divine body had been absurdly large.
However, Lord Nianjiao's expression was also somewhat grave.
He had sensed the incarnation's strength.
Although it was only barely second-tier,
this was not strength that a top Universe Overlord could possess.
That meant Luo Fan had very likely already broken through to become a Universe Master.
How long had it been?
Lord Nianjiao had memorized Luo Fan's information thoroughly.
After all, this was someone who might become the next Origin Ancestor.
Even a single incarnation possessed second-tier Universe Master strength.
Then how powerful was Luo Fan's true body?
Thinking of this, Lord Nianjiao did not hesitate at all. He directly teleported toward the location of Luo Fan and Lord Ice Peak.
This time, he absolutely could not let Luo Fan escape.
Otherwise, given some more time, Luo Fan's strength might surge again.
…
Luo Fan shook his head.
"Teacher, I know Lord Nianjiao is very powerful."
"But no matter how strong he is, he's still only a Universe Master."
"You should know my strength."
"It's basically impossible for him to kill me."
"Even if I focus solely on escaping, there's no problem."
"And I still have incarnations to help."
When Luo Fan mentioned incarnations, Lord Ice Peak's eyes lit up.
In his excessive worry, he had nearly forgotten this.
Luo Fan had brought numerous incarnations with him.
Moreover, these incarnations had only just left not long ago.
Lord Ice Peak had thought Luo Fan had brought only several thousand incarnations.
However, even several thousand incarnations could unleash extremely terrifying power.
Even if a Universe Strongest arrived, they would not gain the upper hand easily.
Especially if the incarnations were prepared in advance, they could unleash even more frightening might.
Ten fourth-tier Universe Masters attacking together could unleash sixth-tier power.
A hundred fourth-tier Universe Masters attacking together could unleash the power of an eighth-tier True God.
Although the incarnations were relatively weaker,
thousands of incarnations attacking together could also unleash power comparable to a Universe Strongest.
If caught off guard, Lord Nianjiao might even be instantly killed.
Thinking of this, Lord Ice Peak's eyes brightened.
"If we set up an ambush, there's indeed a chance."
"You let the incarnations attack together later. Perhaps we can directly kill Lord Nianjiao instantly."
Luo Fan shook his head.
"Teacher, I want to keep the incarnations' combined attack as a trump card."
"Giant Axe told me he needs less than a day to arrive."
"During this time, the incarnations I left on him will continuously help him create temporary wormholes."
"Combined with the recently constructed fixed wormholes, Giant Axe will arrive very quickly."
"So I plan to hide the incarnations' combined attack ability for now."
"Then let Giant Axe suppress Lord Nianjiao."
"Once the incarnations attack together, the power cannot be controlled."
"It is very likely to kill Lord Nianjiao outright."
"But a living Lord Nianjiao is far more valuable than a dead Universe Master."
"At that time, he can be used to negotiate with the Demon Race."
Lord Ice Peak showed a conflicted expression.
He knew the feasibility of this plan was very high.
But he still did not want Luo Fan to take risks.
Not only because Luo Fan was his direct disciple,
but also because Luo Fan was now the hope of the entire Human Race.
However, he also understood his disciple's personality.
Lord Ice Peak shook his head and sighed.
"Fine."
"But if there's danger, you must leave immediately!"
Luo Fan nodded without hesitation.
At that moment, he sensed fluctuations in his domain supreme treasure.
At the edge of his domain, it was being repelled by another domain supreme treasure.
Lord Nianjiao knew he had been discovered.
So he did not hide at all. He directly unfolded his domain supreme treasure and collided with Luo Fan's domain.
Since he had been exposed, his task now was to block Luo Fan and prevent him from escaping.
As the two domains collided, countless cracks immediately appeared in the surrounding space.
No one knew what lay within those cracks.
The spatial fissures of the Universe Sea were extremely dangerous.
Even a Universe Strongest would not enter them lightly.
Once inside, there was a high probability of losing direction.
In the Universe Sea, losing direction had terrifying consequences.
The surrounding chaotic airflow surged violently.
"Luo Fan!"
"Your talent is too terrifying!"
"For the future of my race."
"Today, you will remain here!"
Lord Nianjiao's voice was filled with killing intent.
Luo Fan's expression remained calm and composed,
as if he were out on a weekend picnic.
He did not even bother replying.
After all, the other party would soon be suppressed.
At that moment, a gigantic beast appeared.
The beast resembled a whale.
In an instant, Lord Nianjiao's water-like domain supreme treasure spread across the body of this giant beast.
The beast charged toward Luo Fan's domain.
In an instant, a massive opening was torn through Luo Fan's domain.
Carrying the terrifying water-flow domain, the giant beast rushed directly into Luo Fan's domain.
Luo Fan's domain continuously wore down the beast.
This domain supreme treasure was purely spatial in attribute.
Numerous spatial storms and spatial fissures appeared around the beast.
Under the weakening effect of Luo Fan's domain, the beast's size shrank considerably.
Even so, its attack remained extremely powerful.
Without hesitation, Luo Fan directly unleashed Annihilation Divine Light.
Boom!
A terrifying beam instantly struck the giant beast.
The surrounding domain condensed into spatial blades, attacking the beast together with the Annihilation Divine Light.
However, Lord Nianjiao's domain supreme treasure was also a top-tier supreme treasure, just like Luo Fan's.
Although Luo Fan's treasure was slightly superior in quality,
they were ultimately at the same level.
Thus, when it collided with the water flow surrounding the beast, the water dissipated,
but only a few spatial blades remained around the Annihilation Divine Light.
The giant beast collided with the Annihilation Divine Light, erupting in a terrifying shockwave.
The surrounding chaotic airflow instantly became disorderly.
An ordinary Venerable here would likely be annihilated instantly by the turbulent chaotic airflow.
But when this chaotic airflow struck Luo Fan, it did not even cause pain.
The giant beast was not so easily destroyed.
After the collision, what was annihilated was Luo Fan's Annihilation Divine Light.
Although part of the beast had also been erased, a remnant still remained.
This remaining portion of the giant beast lunged directly at Luo Fan.
Luo Fan's domain continuously weakened the remnant beast.
By the time it struck Luo Fan, only a small portion remained.
Even so, it still sent Luo Fan flying backward for some distance.
After all, the attack he had unleashed had only reached fourth-tier power.
Lord Nianjiao was a genuine peak fifth-tier Universe Master.
