As the words fell.
The Seventh True Master's eyes held a fervent look, as he wielded his ring-shaped weapon and attacked, gathering his formidable power onto the chilling ring blade.
"Heh... Legacy?"
Ender naturally wouldn't admit that he had obtained a Legacy, merely stating, "Whether it is or not, you'll know if you try."
A faint red light enveloped his body; this was merely using a Domain-type Arcana treasure to protect himself, without expending Divine Power for a large-scale encirclement to suppress the Seventh True Master's Pinnacle Domain-type Arcana treasure.
Boom!
Ender burned his Divine Power, and his aura and pressure surged dramatically, as a large amount of Divine Power was poured into the silver long spear in his hand.
As the fourth level secret pattern of the 'Cold Silence' Secret Technique was activated, a faint power capable of destroying space-time gathered at the tip of the spear.
This power was quite terrifying; even the Seventh True Master, who was attacking, could feel the threat, clearly indicating that the power could harm him!
"This is..."
Upon seeing this, the fervent look in the Seventh True Master's eyes receded slightly, replaced by confusion.
Clang!
Weapons collided, space continuously shattered, and a large amount of cold aura spread with the shockwave.
Because Ender did not exert his full strength, and even the Secret Technique he used was only the Fusion of the strongest Secret Technique 'Yin-Yang of Life and Death', he retreated several steps after enduring the blow, yet his aura remained unchanged.
The Seventh True Master, however, only retreated one step, the fervent look in his eyes receding by more than half, and a certain conjecture formed in his mind.
Whoosh!
To verify his conjecture, the Seventh True Master unleashed his self-created Rank seven Pinnacle Secret Technique and attacked Ender again, gathering endless icy Qi and immense power onto the pair of ring-shaped weapons.
Boom!
Amidst the shattering space and scattering cold aura, Ender was repelled several steps again, retreating tens of thousands of kilometers away.
After one strike, the Seventh True Master stopped in place, a white single-eyed phantom behind him, gazing at Ender tens of thousands of kilometers away, his expression constantly shifting.
A long time passed.
"Your armor... is actually a Xeon Arcana treasure!"
Only then did the Seventh True Master transmit his voice in a deep tone, "And your weapon is definitely not an ordinary Xeon Arcana treasure."
Ender did not answer, his body enveloped in a faint red light, confronting the Seventh True Master across tens of thousands of kilometers.
"Amazing! Human Void River Master of the Original Universe, your talent and Comprehension Ability are truly amazing!"
The Seventh True Master said coldly, "I didn't expect that you, a junior who just became a Universe Master not long ago, could comprehend the fourth level secret pattern on an Arcana treasure."
"But with just one Arcana treasure weapon whose fourth level secret pattern has been comprehended, even if you possess Rank seven combat power, you cannot contend with me without losing Divine Power."
"Therefore... the armor on your body is also not an ordinary Arcana treasure, and an attack power that does not reach Rank eight level will cause negligible Divine Power loss to you."
"Driving an Arcana treasure consumes a lot of Divine Power, but you carry a Clone with a massive Divine Body to replenish Divine Power, which can greatly extend your combat time."
"Two Arcana treasures, one offense and one defense, plus a massive Divine Body Clone to replenish Divine Power, I cannot do anything to you in a short time!"
Speaking of this, the Seventh True Master's gaze fell on Ice Summit Master and Peng Gong Master, and he said coldly, "But can they withstand the Seal and suppression of my Ice Cliff Fortress, a Palace-type Arcana treasure?!"
Under the cold gaze, both Ice Summit Master and Peng Gong Master felt a chill in their hearts.
The Seventh True Master's strength was formidable; if he were to recklessly unleash a Seal and suppression, they would inevitably be suppressed.
Ender chuckled upon hearing this, "They can't stop it, the premise is... you still have time!"
As the words fell.
The Seventh True Master's expression changed dramatically; he also sensed a powerful being rapidly approaching!
Only to see...
A majestic black Huge Axe flew over grandly, and at the same time, an angry voice sounded, "Seventh True Master, you are courting death! Thirteenth..."
Whoosh!
Thirteen vast Huge Axe phantoms appeared in the endless space-time, each Huge Axe phantom like a world, with some phantoms even enveloping the Seventh True Master.
"It's the Huge Axe Creator!"
Upon seeing this, the Seventh True Master directly hid inside the translucent Ice Cliff Fortress.
"Huge Axe!"
"Huge Axe is here!"
Ice Summit Master and Peng Gong Master's faces immediately lit up with joy upon seeing this.
Bang!
The Huge Axe phantom struck out, and although the phantom seemed to be in another dimension, it turned from illusory to real when it struck, directly sending the Ice Cliff Fortress flying.
"This is only the Thirteenth Axe..."
The Seventh True Master, inside the Ice Cliff Fortress, although he did not suffer any Divine Power loss, he could still feel the formidable power within the Secret Technique that the Huge Axe Creator had just unleashed.
According to the information he received from the Third True Master and the Sixth True Master, the strongest axe skill unleashed by the Huge Axe Creator was the Fifteenth Axe!
"Just the Thirteenth Axe has Rank eight power; Huge Axe's strength is truly unfathomable!"
The Seventh True Master secretly thought, "The Huge Axe Creator and the Original Universe Human Race have hidden themselves so deeply!"
After the Thirteenth Axe struck, the Huge Axe Creator's anger had not subsided, and he was about to unleash an even stronger axe skill, when he heard the Third True Master, who followed closely, transmit his voice.
"Huge Axe, wait!"
The Third True Master transmitted his voice from afar, "My Divine Eye Race is willing to add two more treasures worth Pinnacle Domain-type Arcana treasures."
"Three!"
The Huge Axe Creator said coldly, "Adding the three you promised before, that's a total of six treasures at the level of Pinnacle Domain-type Arcana treasures."
"Good! My Divine Eye Race respects you, so I will give you six treasures."
The Third True Master then transmitted his voice again, "Seventh True Master, you contribute two treasures worth Pinnacle Domain-type Arcana treasures."
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Four streams of light flew out from the Third True Master's body, and another two streams of light flew out from inside the Ice Cliff Fortress, all flying towards the Huge Axe Creator.
The Huge Axe Creator reached out and grabbed all six streams of light, branded them with his life imprint, checked them, and then put them away.
"Huge Axe."
The Third True Master did not leave, but transmitted his voice, "Your Human Race has obtained that silver token; you must be planning to explore the core area of the Universe Boat to find the secret room corresponding to that silver token."
"My Divine Eye Race has a detailed map of the Universe Boat and can safely and quickly find the secret room corresponding to that silver token."
"Although your strength is strong, you do not have a Palace-type Arcana treasure to protect yourself..."
The Third True Master suggested, "How about your Human Race cooperates with my Divine Eye Race?"
"No need for cooperation."
The Huge Axe Creator directly refused, "The Human Race will slowly explore the Universe Boat; we have plenty of time to find the secret room corresponding to that silver token."
The Third True Master fell silent; time was what his Divine Eye Race lacked most, and as the Original Universe continued to change, their time would only become more pressing.
When the Original Universe entered its period of decline and contraction, that would be the final desperate struggle of his Divine Eye Race!
After a moment of silence.
The Third True Master said calmly, "Huge Axe, I hope you will seriously consider my suggestion."
The Huge Axe Creator looked at the Third True Master, as if he saw... madness in his calm expression.
Silence!
All the powerhouses present watched the Huge Axe Creator and the Third True Master confront each other across space, and because they were transmitting their voices, they did not know what the two were discussing.
"If the Human Race obtains the Legacy from the secret room corresponding to the silver token, and your Divine Eye Race pays the corresponding price, the Human Race can trade a portion of the Legacy to your Divine Eye Race."
The Huge Axe Creator said, "But if there is a core Legacy that cannot be revealed, it will not be part of the trade!"
"Huge Axe, I presume you also understand that only the core Legacy of Ancient Inheritance involves secrets that transcend the Universe Ocean!" The Third True Master said in a deep voice, "And only that Rank of Legacy is of great significance to my Divine Eye Race!"
"No need to say more!"
The Huge Axe Creator interrupted, "Your Divine Eye Race needs the core Legacy, do you think the Human Race doesn't need the core Legacy?
"The Ancient Inheritance your Divine Eye Race obtained, its core Legacy is likely on the Divine Eye True Master, and because the core Legacy cannot be revealed, your strength is far inferior to the Divine Eye True Master!"
The Third True Master fell silent again.
Just as the Huge Axe Creator said, the complete Ancient Inheritance obtained by their Divine Eye Race, its unrevealed core Legacy, was on the Divine Eye True Master, God Eye.
This made the Divine Eye True Master's strength formidable, to the extent that even Ancestor Yuan, who dominated the Universe Ocean, could only suppress him.
In contrast, the other True Masters could only exert Rank eight combat power by relying on Arcana treasures, otherwise, they only had Rank seven Pinnacle combat power.
The 'Eternal True God Technique' unleashed by the combined efforts of the Third True Master and the Sixth True Master, relying on three great Arcana treasures, only possessed combat power approaching Rank nine.
And such a formidable Secret Technique as 'Eternal True God Technique' would still be suppressed and dispersed when facing Rank nine powerhouses like the Huge Axe Creator and the Divine Eye True Master!
The Huge Axe Creator's words left the Third True Master at a loss for how to respond.
If another Race had obtained the silver token, and he and the Sixth True Master could suppress them, he would have threatened them long ago.
But the Original Universe Human Race, who obtained the silver token, had the Huge Axe Creator, a powerful being!
Although the other powerhouses of the Human Race, even Void River Master who exerted Rank seven combat power by relying on two Arcana treasures, were still very weak compared to their Divine Eye Race.
But as long as the Human Race retreated to the Original Universe, their Divine Eye Race would be helpless against them!
More importantly, the Comprehension Ability of that Human Void River Master was too terrifying; he could comprehend the fourth level secret pattern of an Arcana treasure while still a Universe Master.
If he were to become a True God in the future, he would probably be another terrifying existence on the Rank of the Huge Axe Creator, or even Ancestor Yuan!
Helpless, the Third True Master could only softly say, "Then my Divine Eye Race will await good news from your Human Race."
As the Seventh True Master's Ice Cliff Fortress flew over, the Third True Master, taking the Ice Cliff Fortress, transformed into a stream of light and flew away.
"Huge Axe."
Seeing the two True Masters of the Divine Eye Race leave, Ender and the others flew to the Huge Axe Creator's side.
Ice Summit Master spoke, "Huge Axe, my Senior Brother Darkness Master..."
"He's fine."
Before he could finish speaking, the Huge Axe Creator waved his hand and took out a black tower-shaped flying Palace-type treasure.
"Huge Axe, Junior Brother, Peng Gong, Void River."
The next moment, Darkness Master emerged from the black tower-shaped flying Palace, cupping his hands and saying, "Thank you all for coming to my rescue."
"No need to be polite; your acquisition of the silver token this time is a great merit to our Human Race."
The Huge Axe Creator waved his hand and said, "However, the fact that you are a member of the Human Race has already been revealed to many Universe Masters of the Divine Eye Race; it is estimated that the Divine Eye Race will not keep this matter a secret."
"Since it's exposed, then Darkness should return to the Human Race; it will be better for him to calmly comprehend the Arcana treasure in the future."
After Peng Gong Master finished speaking, he turned and asked, "Huge Axe, your strength?"
"Strength? Haha..."
The Huge Axe Creator laughed heartily, "Before, I always hid my strength. After receiving the 'Divine Axe' given by Void River, my strength has greatly increased, and now I am no less than the Divine Eye True Master of the Divine Eye Race."
"This!"
Ice Summit Master and Peng Gong Master were quite shocked upon hearing this.
At this moment, they understood why the Seventh True Master directly hid inside the Ice Cliff Fortress when he saw Huge Axe arrive.
They also understood why the Third True Master was so polite and willing to pay a price to resolve the grudge.
"Void River, thank you for stopping the Seventh True Master this time." The Huge Axe Creator looked at Ender with a smile.
He thought that Ender would put Ice Summit Master and Peng Gong Master into a Seal Palace-type Arcana treasure to buy time.
But what he didn't expect was that Ender actually directly blocked the Seventh True Master, leaving the opponent helpless for a while.
"The Seventh True Master doesn't have an offensive Xeon Arcana treasure, so I can block him head-on."
Ender smiled and shook his head, "If he had an offensive Xeon Arcana treasure, it would be much more troublesome."
For him, a True God with an offensive Xeon Arcana treasure was much more difficult to deal with than a True God without one.
Because the former, relying on an Arcana treasure, could mostly exert Rank eight combat power, and only by unleashing Rank six Secret Techniques and Burning Divine Power Secret Technique could he contend with them head-on.
"In any case, you are also a meritorious official of our Human Race."
The Huge Axe Creator laughed heartily upon hearing this, "Let's go, back to the Original Universe."
"Back to the Original Universe."
Peng Gong Master softly echoed.
The battle with the Seventh True Master made Peng Gong Master realize the strength gap between a Rank six Universe Master and a True God.
It also made him increasingly eager to become a True God, to fight head-on with a True God like Ender!
But what he didn't know was that the time he and Ice Summit had to acquire Arcana treasures was too short, and they hadn't created Supporting Secret Techniques based on the Arcana treasures, so they could only be considered ordinary Rank six Universe Masters.
And their opponent was the Seventh True Master, who, even without an offensive Arcana treasure, could exert Rank seven Pinnacle strength.
...
On the way back to the Original Universe.
Virtual Universe, in front of the Huge Axe Godly Palace.
The Huge Axe Creator, Primal Chaos City Lord, and Ender sat at a long stone table.
"Primal Chaos City Lord, Void River, for obtaining the silver token this time, Darkness Master deserves the primary credit."
The Huge Axe Creator spoke first, "The silver token is quite valuable, equivalent to two or three Pinnacle Palace-type treasures.
"So I think Darkness Master should be rewarded with 50,000 Arcana Treasure Points."
Primal Chaos City Lord frowned slightly, "50,000 Arcana Treasure Points is fine, but the Race doesn't have matching treasures."
The most valuable treasure in the Treasure Vault of the Race was the top-tier flying Palace-type Arcana treasure contributed by Ender, valued at over three thousand Arcana Treasure Points.
"I just obtained six treasures worth Pinnacle Domain-type from the Divine Eye Race; I'll contribute them all to the Race to enrich the Treasure Vault of the Race." The Huge Axe Creator said with a smile.
"Huge Axe, those are six valuable and precious Pinnacle treasures!"
Primal Chaos City Lord couldn't help but advise, "You're contributing all of them to the Race..."
"No need to persuade me. With my current strength, these treasures are not very significant to me, but the Race really needs these treasures."
The Huge Axe Creator raised his hand to interrupt, then turned to Ender and asked, "Void River, not only was your contribution huge this time.
"To find the secret room corresponding to the silver token, I need to borrow the Palace-type Arcana treasure you have stored in the Race. Just tell me what you need."
"Me?"
Ender pondered upon hearing this.
His main combat Clone did not lack treasures, and the Clones stationed in the Creation Secret Realm and other places had enough treasures in the Original Universe.
Moreover, he could now almost refine all types of top-tier treasures, so his demand for treasures in the Treasure Vault of the Race was very small.
"How about this."
A thought arose in Ender's mind, and he said, "Just give the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company the right to host the Pinnacle Genius Battle."
