He muttered to himself, "He's really tough... The Star Tower is a death trap, and the first two peerless geniuses both perished there, yet he actually managed to climb out."
Despite being consumed by jealousy, Emperor Yan knew very well that the guy who could recognize the life and death inheritance through the Star Tower was an freakish genius!
He wouldn't dare touch the Star Tower, this supreme treasure, no matter how much he coveted it!
Luo Feng's success was indeed due to the plan of the Mountain Hermit, but it was also this kid's incredible performance, which he risked his life for!
Yan Di knew better than anyone how demanding the Mountain Hermit was in choosing his apprentices!
Humanity on Earth has multiplied for countless billions of years before finally producing a single heir like Luo Feng!
He himself was able to climb to the position of leader of the Yan God Clan by fighting his way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
But he knew very well that the test his teacher had set for him was as mild as child's play compared to the Star Tower that Luo Feng had experienced!
That's what you call a true death sentence!
"The armor...it has finally fallen into his hands..."
Emperor Yan took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his turbulent emotions.
The deal is done!
Dawdling won't change anything!
Why not hurry up and go to the Primal Star and see if you can find some treasures to recoup your losses!
He subconsciously glanced at the fragment of a star in the distant universe—it was empty!
That unsightly palace has vanished without a trace!
It has obviously been taken away.
Lin Hao's figure had also vanished without a trace.
They didn't even leave a parting glance!
"Oh shit!"
Emperor Yan was so angry that he spit fire from his nostrils again!
This guy surnamed Lin!
They're practically treating his house like a public starport!
They come and go as they please, without even saying hello! They completely disregard their master!
Despite his frustration, Emperor Yan knew very well that he had no way to deal with Lin Hao!
Initially, it was out of fear due to the unknown.
After witnessing the other party's strength firsthand, even the arrogant and conceited Yan Di could only swallow his envy, jealousy, and hatred, and at the same time, he made up his mind not to provoke them in the future!
……
"Huh? The Giant Axe Conference?"
As soon as Lin Hao returned to the human realm, a notification from the virtual universe popped up in front of him.
Chapter 146 Deep into the Insect Nest, Straight to the Heart of the Enemy!
Virtual universe, Temple of the Great Ax.
Beside the familiar, rustic stone table, the figures of pillars of human society appear one after another.
The Lord of Chaos City remained calm, exuding an ancient composure. The Lord of Darkness possessed a profound aura, as did the Lord of Penggong, the Lord of Ice Peak, the Lord of Dragon Journey, the Lord of Desolate Mirror, and the Giant Axe Founder, who was as imposing as a mountain and whose aura dominated the universe.
Lin Hao was the last to appear. He casually pulled out a chair and sat down, his gaze sweeping over everyone: "What brings us all together again? Wasn't the fighting exciting enough on the Primal Star?"
The founder of the giant axe rang out in a deep voice, tinged with a hint of imperceptible solemnity: "Huang Tian, you have returned at just the right time. The situation on the Primordial Star has changed somewhat since you left."
The Lord of Chaos City took over the conversation, his tone calm: "The battle is still fierce. In the past few hundred years, nearly a thousand cosmic venerables from various races have fallen. This is still in the early stages of the Primordial Star's opening, so it is relatively rare."
"Oh?"
Lin Hao raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Are those guys bloodthirsty?"
"It's not just about being blinded by rage."
The Lord of Darkness spoke in a deep voice, “More importantly, the objective is clear. Currently on the Primordial Star, the cosmic lords of the Demon Race, the Insect Race, and the Mechanical Race seem to have reached some kind of temporary tacit understanding. Although there is no explicit alliance, in terms of actions, they have already formed a joint force to comprehensively exclude and suppress our human race’s powerful individuals.”
The Lord of Ice Peaks sneered: "That's right. As long as our people appear at the points of contention for high-value treasures, the universe lords of the three races will be like sharks that have smelled blood. They will definitely interfere, restrain, and even create small-scale melees to keep the human universe lords busy and unable to concentrate on seizing the treasures. They don't directly fight us to the death, but they are like maggots that constantly wear down and annoy our people."
Master Peng slammed his fist on the table in frustration: "How humiliating! I haven't felt this humiliated in hundreds of years! Last time, when I was trying to seize a top-tier treasure, I clearly had the upper hand, but then the Demon Wolf of the Demon Race, the Azure Dragon of the Insect Race, and the Lord of the Guns of the Mechanical Race all showed up at the same time. One of them restrained my divine body, another sealed off space and time, and yet another interfered with the operation of my laws! They forced me to watch helplessly as the treasure was snatched up by their side! The worst part is, they didn't even dare to actually attack and kill me. It's just infuriating!"
"The situation is even worse at the level of the Cosmic Venerables."
The Dragon Lord frowned. "The cosmic overlords of the three races now frequently cooperate in battle. When they see a lone or small group of human Venerables, they often attack in droves, with ruthless methods. Although we have strong support from other races in the alliance, the core pressure still rests on our human race. Under these circumstances, their gains are severely compressed, and their casualty rate is rising sharply. Many Venerables are even unwilling to enter the core area of the Primal Star anymore; the experience is... extremely poor!"
The Giant Axe Founder looked at Lin Hao, "Huang Tian, you previously used ruthless methods on the Primordial Star to kill many overlords, causing great losses to the three races and establishing your unparalleled fearsome reputation as Lord Huang Tian. Now they have secretly formed an alliance, which is certainly because they are wary of your and Luo Feng's potential, but it also exposes their outwardly strong but inwardly weak nature—they are afraid! Afraid that the human race will have a few more beings like you!"
"Why should our human race fear such tricks of demons and monsters?! But if this evil trend is not suppressed, our human race will be hampered at every turn during the Primordial Star Feast, making it difficult to fully enjoy ourselves! Chaos and I have discussed inviting Huang Tian to enter the Primordial Star again!"
The giant axe's gaze locked onto Lin Hao, the invitation containing a trust, "No need to deliberately provoke anyone, you just need to walk in that place where the treasure light gathers! With your abilities and your ferocity, you will surely be like a pillar of strength, suppressing those with ill intentions! If they can't restrain themselves and dare to gang up on the few and try to kill us... then go all out and beat them hard! Make them feel the pain! Break their ridiculous alliance! Let them know that some thoughts are not even worth considering!"
The Lord of Chaos City added, his eyes filled with profound meaning: "Huang Tian, your very existence is the strongest deterrent. Your 'sisters' are also formidable forces with extraordinary potential. This action is also a declaration of the will of our human race! In the struggle for the Primordial Star, we humans will not yield!"
The entire temple fell silent, and all the lords of the universe focused their gazes on Lin Hao.
Pressure? They believed Lin Hao was already used to it.
Expectations? They made no attempt to hide them.
Lin Hao leaned back lazily in his chair, his fingers tapping lightly on the edge of the stone table, producing a crisp tapping sound.
He understood what his teacher and the founder of the giant axe meant. Asking him to take action did not mean that his combat power was stronger than that of the Chaos City Lord and the giant axe.
Instead, his actions would catch the three races off guard and would not easily trigger a true race-wide war. Currently, the human race really has no need to confront the three-race alliance head-on.
Even if the three races joined forces to lay a trap, they still couldn't keep him.
"Ha... They've been bored for centuries, their bones are practically rusting. Since they wanted to play disgusting tricks, they just happened to run into my line of fire..."
He stood up, and an invisible, overwhelming aura instantly filled the entire temple space, as if a dormant ancient beast had opened its scarlet eyes. "I'm happy to oblige! Perfect timing to have some fun and stretch my muscles. Primal Star, is it? I'd like to see which fearless chickens will dare to run into my blade!"
"it is good!"
The founder of the giant axe's eyes gleamed brightly. "Excellent! Chaos, send Huang Tian a summary of the most intense conflict points on the Primordial Star and the latest movements of the three races!"
……
The meeting at the Temple of the Giant Axe has concluded.
At the highest point of Thunder Island, in the temple of the Chaos City Lord, only Lin Hao, the Chaos City Lord, and the Giant Axe Founder were present.
"The Primal Star? I'm itching to give it a good thrashing. The lesson from last time wasn't profound enough, so I'll go and give it another try."
Lin Hao said to the Chaos City Lord and the Giant Axe Founder, "I'll go for a walk by myself. The three races are prepared this time, and I don't feel comfortable taking them with me."
The Lord of Chaos City nodded: "Yes, be careful. If things don't look good, come back. Don't get entangled."
The founder of the giant axe looked on with complete trust: "Go ahead and do whatever you want. No matter how big a mess you make, I'll cover for you!"
……
The original planetary land, numbered 00184, is even more desolate than it was a hundred years ago!
The aftershocks of the collision of laws tore space to shreds. Every time the aura of a supreme treasure soared into the sky, it was almost certain that a battle at the level of a universe lord had taken place, leaving the surrounding billions of miles barren.
At that moment, a figure flashed by like a ghost.
It was Lin Hao!
He didn't bring anyone with him. The illusory divine armor he wore had lost all its luster, exuding an extremely restrained ferocity, perfectly blending him into the mottled void background.
However, he did not conceal his aura. His purpose in coming to the Primordial Star was to announce his arrival to the three races!
If we can fight, we will fight; if we can't, we'll randomly select lucky audience members to take back to the human territory and give them a good beating!
"It is the Lord of the Yellow Heaven!"
"That jinx is back!"
"Quickly, notify the leaders of the Alliance!"
The invisible undercurrents suddenly accelerated.
The cosmic rulers of the demon race and the mechanical race were on high alert, exchanging divine power messages frequently, subtly forming a coordinated effort.
"Huh?! Where did the Lotus Heart Master go? She promised to show the human race something this time, so where did she go?!"
The Demon Wolf Lord of the Demon Clan Alliance complained, knowing that Lin Hao was not someone to be trifled with. He must have something to rely on to break the deadlock by coming alone this time!
Unexpectedly, the Zerg, who have never been very cooperative in their operations, have now completely disappeared, even the person in charge has vanished.
……
Lin Hao did not head directly to the original star "No. 10081" where the conflict was most intense, as indicated in the intelligence. Instead, he wandered aimlessly through the passages on the original star.
Therefore, neither the demon race nor the mechanical race has yet been able to find his whereabouts.
Just as he stepped onto the original star numbered 005986, a sudden change occurred!
hum!
The space in front of us was not frozen, but instantly became dreamlike and illusory!
Countless pinkish-purple shimmering threads descended from the void, weaving a boundless and magnificent dreamscape.
This dream possesses a deadly allure, as if it can awaken the deepest desires and joys within the heart, making one involuntarily sink into it, forgetting the battle, forgetting the tribe, and even forgetting oneself.
"Lord of the Yellow Heaven... I've finally been waiting for you!"
A soft, sweet voice, filled with endless allure and a unique maternal glow, resonated deep within Lin Hao's soul, like a lover's whisper.
This sound was not an attack; rather, it was a comforting invitation that reached the very essence of life.
The void was like a lake surface tossed with a pebble, rippling out in circles of pure white, holy, yet mixed with dreamy pink and purple light.
Inside the barrier, the laws of time seemed to soften and slow down, and the space was like the softest, most comfortable bed.
A strange, captivating energy, one that inspires a willingness to give everything, spread out.
The Lotus Heart Realm! —
Zerg, "Lord of the Heart Lotus"!
