Luo Fan's Space Worm clone quickly arrived at the center of the ancient city, where the General's Mansion was located.
Looking at the invisible barrier ahead, Luo Fan did not hesitate and directly took out the Void-Splitting Blade, slashing with full force.
"Boom!"
The Void-Splitting Blade struck the invisible barrier.
Layers of ripples spread out from the point of impact.
Luo Fan was shocked to discover that this strike could not break the barrier at all.
He could not even create the slightest crack.
One must know that this attack possessed peak fifth-tier power!
At this moment, he understood that this barrier was not something he could shatter.
However, this only strengthened his speculation.
This ancient city was very likely the inheritance site of a general from the Wu Kingdom within the Universe Boat!
Right now, his inability to enter the City Lord's Mansion likely meant that the inheritance trial had not yet begun, and he did not have the qualifications to enter.
But if the city gates were open, why had the trial not started?
Could it be that the number of participants was insufficient?
Luo Fan began to speculate.
If it was a matter of numbers…
His Space Worm clones alone, after using their innate transformation ability, could easily make up a million participants.
However, given that the Wu Kingdom general had been a Chaos Ruler in life, the other party would definitely be able to see through it.
Even if the souls, auras, and even races were completely different, the secret techniques used and the understanding of laws would be identical.
At a glance, it would be obvious that they were all the same person.
As for whether this general was completely dead, Luo Fan felt that he likely was not.
After all, even Duan Dong He had been able to preserve a trace of his remnant soul to carry out inheritance.
As someone even stronger than Duan Dong He, the Wu Kingdom general preserving a trace of remnant soul through this ancient city was highly possible.
Since that was the case, then he would wait.
For now, Luo Fan had no other option.
Moreover, the Divine Eye Clan had already discovered this ancient city.
He believed they would definitely send a large number of experts.
In that case, it would be best to inform the human race first.
Furthermore, Luo Fan did not think that only the Divine Eye Clan would discover this city.
When the ancient city flew out of the Universe Boat, other experts from various factions might also have witnessed its rampage.
It was just that Master Yanxing of the Divine Eye Clan had been closer.
The reason this ancient city had flown from a dangerous core region like the Broken Void Forbidden Land to this place might have been to allow more participants to join the inheritance trial.
After figuring this out, Luo Fan immediately attempted to construct a wormhole.
Sure enough, the Space Worm clone, enhanced by the system, could still use the wormhole secret technique even here.
This even startled Luo Fan himself.
Did this not mean that even if he were suppressed inside a palace-type treasure in the future, he could still escape using the wormhole technique?
Luo Fan did not think further and directly stepped into the wormhole, leaving the ancient city in a single step.
As for the clone, it remained behind to continue waiting.
What Luo Fan did not know was that as the Space Worm clone left, a gaze had been watching him the entire time.
However, even if he had known, he would not have cared.
…
Inside the General's Mansion.
A man quietly watched Luo Fan's Space Worm clone enter the wormhole and leave the ancient city.
There was a trace of shock and curiosity in his eyes.
"Interesting."
"As expected of the Universe Sea, there are even lifeforms with such innate secret techniques."
"What a powerful ability."
"I wonder how this little fellow will perform in the upcoming trial."
"A little fellow at the Law Venerable level actually able to unleash the power of a fifth-tier Law Master. Interesting."
…
Soon, Luo Fan convened a Giant Axe meeting within the Virtual Universe.
"These meetings are being held more and more frequently lately."
After arriving, A Universe Master could not help but remark.
"Heh, the more meetings, the better!"
"Especially when Hun Yuan calls them, the more the better!"
"Every time Hun Yuan calls a meeting, there's good news."
"I'd love it if there was one every day!"
"I wonder what he's discovered this time. Another supreme treasure or an ancient civilization inheritance?"
At this moment, Master of Darkness also arrived and joined the conversation.
"Hopefully this time it's an ancient inheritance suitable for us."
"I heard from Ice Peak that he's about to create a fused secret technique for Universe Masters."
"He's confident he can break through to become a Universe Master within one hundred million eras."
As he spoke, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.
With the reference of a supreme treasure provided by Luo Fan, along with Ice Extreme Reincarnation, Master Ice Peak had advanced rapidly.
He had already grasped the key to fusing two ultimate Universe Master techniques.
Given more time, he would truly become a fifth-tier Universe Master.
Although Master Ice Peak, who had mastered the secret patterns of the Cold Universe Sword, could already unleash fifth-tier power, it was similar to Luo Fan.
Both of them relied on activating the secret patterns of supreme treasure weapons to achieve such power.
In reality, both master and disciple had only created fourth-tier ultimate techniques so far.
Once they created a fifth-tier fused ultimate technique, they might advance further and master the third layer of secret patterns of a True God supreme treasure, unleashing sixth-tier power.
If they reached that level, within the Primal Universe, they could be treated as Universe Masters.
After all, even a Universe Master could only exert sixth-tier Universe Master power within the Primal Universe.
Other Universe Masters also arrived one after another.
As soon as they came, they began chatting.
"Chaos is really lucky. The supreme treasure weapons Hun Yuan obtained just happen to suit them."
"Chaos could already unleash sixth-tier power before."
A Universe Master said.
"Heh, although I haven't mastered the third layer of secret patterns yet, I'm confident I can do so within one era."
Master Desolation was also a veteran fifth-tier Universe Master.
His talent and comprehension were both extremely high.
Although he was slower than the Chaos City Lord in mastering secret patterns, his deep foundation meant his progress was still fast.
In fact, most fifth-tier Universe Masters, after obtaining a suitable supreme treasure, could eventually unleash sixth-tier power.
Since obtaining the supreme treasure, Master Desolation had been in high spirits.
Although nominally the treasures were borrowed from Luo Fan, once they repaid enough treasure points, the treasures would fully belong to them.
Other human Universe Masters wished they could borrow one as well.
After all, having it earlier meant enjoying it earlier.
With a supreme treasure, the speed of earning treasure points also increased.
Greater strength allowed them to explore more dangerous regions.
And dangerous places often contained more valuable treasures.
While they chatted, Luo Fan quietly listened.
They did not ask him anything.
They were already used to these meetings.
Soon enough, Luo Fan would explain the purpose himself.
They just needed to wait and enjoy the benefits.
Soon, everyone had gathered.
Giant Axe, who arrived last, looked at the crowd and laughed.
"Haha, Hun Yuan has called another meeting."
"At this rate, we might as well rename the Giant Axe Meeting to the Hun Yuan Meeting."
"If this keeps up, the number of times he calls meetings will surpass mine."
Everyone laughed.
"Exactly, Giant Axe, hurry and give up your position."
"That's right, just rename it!"
"Every meeting now makes me look forward to what good news comes next."
"As soon as one meeting ends, I'm already anticipating the next."
They joked freely.
Giant Axe did not mind at all.
In fact, he truly wanted to hand over such responsibilities.
He preferred battle and growth over management.
For now, he only wished to protect Luo Fan and wait for him to surpass him.
Then he could finally set down some of his burdens.
The atmosphere among the human leadership had been excellent lately.
After all, there was good news every day.
One day a supreme treasure, the next an ancient inheritance.
They could not even finish comprehending everything they obtained.
Of course, more would always be welcome.
After chatting for a while, everyone turned their attention to Luo Fan.
He did not keep them in suspense and spoke directly.
"While exploring the Universe Boat, I discovered an ancient city treasure."
"Based on my judgment, it is very likely a palace-type True God supreme treasure."
Everyone was shocked.
Such treasures were extremely rare.
If the human race obtained one, Giant Axe could explore the core regions of the three great danger zones freely.
That might lead to even more supreme treasures.
Although Luo Fan had contributed several already, they were still not enough to distribute.
It would be best if every human expert, every clone, had a full set.
Though impossible, it was nice to dream.
Universe Masters could not hold back.
"So does that mean our human race will have a second palace-type True God supreme treasure?"
Everyone knew Luo Fan already possessed one, the Pantheon.
But no one would ask him to hand it over to Giant Axe.
In their eyes, Luo Fan's safety was more important than anything, even Giant Axe.
However, if they obtained another, it could temporarily be lent to Giant Axe.
With it, he could explore most areas of the three great danger zones.
Why did the Divine Eye Clan possess so many treasures?
Not only because of their strength, but also due to the Seventh True Master's Ice Cliff Fortress.
With it, he had discovered two supreme treasures in the core regions of the Universe Boat.
Luo Fan shook his head.
"I did not obtain it."
"As soon as it appeared, it flew out of the Universe Boat."
"I tried to bind it, but failed."
"Later, I found it outside the Universe Boat."
"I sent a clone inside and discovered that the City Lord's Mansion, or rather the General's Mansion, is protected by an invisible barrier."
"Even peak fifth-tier attacks cannot break it."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.
"Could it already have an owner?"
"But why would an owned treasure emerge from a dangerous region?"
"If it has no owner, how could it fly out on its own?"
Giant Axe asked, "Where is it now?"
Luo Fan nodded.
"It's still outside the Universe Boat, completely motionless."
"And I'm not the only one who found it."
"Master Yanxing of the Divine Eye Clan has also discovered it."
At this, everyone's expressions grew serious.
The Divine Eye Clan was a dominant force in the Universe Sea.
They had seven Universe Masters and over a hundred Universe Masters.
Their combined attack technique could even approach tenth-tier power.
Even the two holy land universes avoided clashing with them.
Although Giant Axe had ninth-tier strength, the First True Master of the Divine Eye Clan also possessed ninth-tier power.
And there were more of them.
It would be difficult to obtain this treasure.
Seeing their expressions, Luo Fan voiced his speculation.
"I believe this palace treasure is not simple."
"It likely contains an inheritance from an ancient civilization."
"Otherwise, there would be no reason for it to fly out from a dangerous region and remain outside the Universe Boat."
"And after entering, nothing happened to my clone."
"If it were a trap, my clone and Space Worm clone would already have been suppressed."
