Chapter 267 Peak Soul-Type Treasure! Forced Recognition of a Master? (4k)
The second stage of the Trial of the Temple of the Divine God is different from the first stage.
The first stage tests one's willpower, while the second stage is a real battle.
The second stage requires all participants to fight each other to determine the final three who will compete for the ultimate treasure!
Looking at the three arenas that appeared in the center of the temple, Luo Feng took a deep breath.
"Gu Ce, come on, I'll just admit defeat. The rest is up to you. The Temple of the Divine Realm shouldn't kill me outright," Luo Feng said jokingly. "Perfect timing, I was also planning to go check out the Cosmic Sea."
"You... alright then." Gu Ce hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.
Gu Ce didn't know whether Luo Feng had brought the Star Tower, this supreme treasure, with him when he arrived here.
But Gu Ce knew that his true self was exploring the Myriad Forests of the Cosmic Sea. If his clone were to perish unexpectedly, not only would he lose his most precious treasures, but his true self might also be in danger.
Gu Ce and Luo Feng stepped onto the first arena under the watchful eyes of the other four.
"I give up!"
As soon as the arena was closed, Luo Feng shouted.
Swish!
The next instant, a golden beam of light enveloped Gu Ce, and Gu Ce felt as if his soul had been marked. Then, the two of them were driven off the arena.
"How is it?" Gu Ce asked Luo Feng.
"It seems that admitting defeat won't lead to my demise," Luo Feng said thoughtfully. "The Temple of the Divine Origin told me that I can leave this place after you obtain the treasure, but I cannot participate in the subsequent battle for the treasure."
The two's experiment also relieved the other four people present.
The illusory demon god even flew onto one of the arena stages.
"Who wants to spar with me?" the illusory demon god laughed.
The other three frowned slightly, clearly not wanting to encounter the strongest illusory demon god here.
The Lord of the Thorn Ring took a deep breath, knowing that he was the weakest of the remaining four. Facing the two Lords of the Universe, he would be no match for either of them. So, he rushed directly onto the arena where the Phantom Demon God was!
"I give up!"
The Lord of the Thorn Rings readily admitted defeat.
He has no chance of winning against any of the remaining three!
Leaving aside the fact that the True Demon God is the strongest being in the universe, the Lord of Changjiu and the Lord of Chaos City are both at the same level of power, belonging to the strongest group below the strongest being in the universe. Once they possess the ultimate treasure, they can even possess the combat power of the sixth rank. The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, with his powerful divine body, is even more troublesome and can self-destruct in one move. If the Lord of the Thorn Ring were to withstand it head-on, he would probably perish on the spot.
As the Lord of the Thorn Ring conceded defeat, a golden light also appeared on the body of the True Demon God, making him the victor marked by the Temple of the Divine Divinity.
With a laugh, the Phantom Demon God and the Lord of the Thorn Ring left the arena and looked at the remaining two Lords of the Universe.
"Damn it!" The remaining two universe lords cursed under their breath and exchanged a glance.
Our opponents are all formidable!
The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds sighed inwardly, shook his head, and still stepped onto the last arena.
The Lord of Changjiu was reluctant, but he still stepped onto the arena.
"boom!"
The two unleashed their divine power simultaneously!
"Lord of the Void Realm, I'll lend you a hand. Whether you can obtain that supreme treasure is up to you!" The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds laughed loudly, unleashing his full power while everyone else was stunned!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~"
The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds suddenly transformed into a boundless sea, which surged into giant waves spanning millions of kilometers, directly crashing into the Lord of Changjiu. The Lord of Changjiu's expression changed; the supreme treasure armor he wore was only of average quality, capable of weakening attacks to one ten-thousandth of their original strength, far inferior to Gu Ce's Time-Day Chaos Armor or Luo Feng's Calamity Armor.
"Rumble~~~~"
The surging seawater formed a huge whirlpool, completely engulfing the Lord of Changjiu within it!
"The Eye of the Nine Nether Sea?" the Lord of the Thorn Ring asked in a deep voice.
That was the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds' strongest secret technique, capable of suppressing the enemy and forcing the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds to unleash his final move.
"Rumble~~~"
The endless seawater formed a huge whirlpool, which then expanded suddenly. Then, as if a star had exploded and then contracted into a neutron star, the huge whirlpool expanded suddenly and then contracted wildly. Countless divine powers erupted at this moment!
The power erupted instantly!
This is a terrifying move that comes at the cost of self-destruction!
The Lord of Changjiu struggled in the endless sea, unleashing the supreme domain-type treasure, Dream Ancestor Domain, in his hand. However, against the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, this supreme domain-type treasure seemed to have lost its due power and could not play any role at all.
"Bang bang bang~~~"
The endless vortex of seawater, amidst the frenzied explosion and impact, instantly shrank to the size of an ordinary Earthling's fist before completely disappearing, revealing the wretched, fist-sized Lord Changjiu within the endless seawater.
The power generated by the previous frantic contraction alone had already turned the surrounding space into a stream of scorching particles. If this place were not inside the Temple of the Divine God, this attack would probably have annihilated some top-tier treasures. The countless particles around were boiling and rolling like soup in a large pot.
"boom!"
Everything vanished.
The Lord of Changjiu knew that the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds would not be able to defeat him hastily without carrying any supreme treasures, and was unwilling to admit defeat voluntarily. However, he did not expect the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds to be so decisive and directly self-destruct his divine body.
Even though the Lord of Changjiu had the supreme treasure armor protecting him, more than 40% of his strength was still annihilated. For a universe lord, this was equivalent to being severely injured. If he could unleash even half of his remaining strength, he would be considered extremely powerful!
Swish!
A golden light fell upon the Lord of Changjiu. The Lord of Changjiu looked grim, but there was nothing he could do.
With his divine body damaged, he was practically eliminated. Although he won the arena battle, in his current state, he might not be able to easily defeat Gu Ce in the upcoming battle for the supreme treasure!
"Bang!"
The three arenas in the temple vanished instantly.
What reappeared in the center of the Temple of the Divine God was a stone platform.
On the platform, there is a priceless treasure!
It was a supreme treasure whose surface shimmered with golden lightning. Shaped like a heart, it emitted golden light and was about fifty kilometers in diameter. It emanated a continuous pressure that intimidated the minds of everyone present.
Divine Thunder Prison!
The name came to mind for everyone present.
This is the name of this treasure.
Correspondingly, this treasure also has its function.
This is a top-tier soul-type treasure, among the highest-tier treasures. In addition to its ability to guard the soul, it can also be used as a top-tier domain-type treasure. Furthermore, it provides enhancement effects for soul attacks and illusions.
It can be said that this is a near-perfect treasure, reaching the highest level of quality among top-tier treasures.
In the past, when the Primordial Star was opened, even the most powerful treasures that appeared were somewhat inferior to this Divine Thunder Prison.
After all, the Divine Might Thunder Prison can unleash attacks comparable to those of a sixth-order Universe Lord!
Although it cannot compare to the true strongest being in the universe, it is enough to allow its owner to roam freely in the primordial universe.
Get it!
The three qualified participants in the trial all had this thought in their minds!
"boom!"
Without hesitation, the illusory demon god attacked, unleashing a powerful soul attack.
The Lord of Changjiu's expression changed, and he took out another supreme treasure.
This supreme treasure, composed of 81 black vines tens of millions of kilometers long, is a pinnacle of psychic weaponry. These vines can be condensed into one and used like a whip, or they can be completely dispersed to bind enemies. Although they can break, those broken vines can quickly reassemble into one.
"Demon Island Vine? Meng Cha actually gave you two top-tier treasures. It seems she really wants to obtain the top-tier treasures here." The True Demon God said with a gloomy expression.
The Lord of Changjiu possesses at least four supreme treasures!
Even so, it's still unclear whether there are any more treasures.
In the primordial universe, the strongest combat power that the True Demon God can unleash is at the peak of the sixth rank. If he attacks the universe master of the primordial universe, he will be punished by the original consciousness of the primordial universe and may be restricted.
The False Demon God is already a key target of the Primal Universe. He either doesn't make a move, or if he does, he has to be quick!
He originally planned to target the severely injured Lord Changjiu, which would be better than attacking the unpredictable Gu Ce. However, the Lord Changjiu taught him a lesson and demonstrated the immense wealth of the demon race.
"Heh, you illusory demon god, do you really think that no one in the primordial universe can deal with you?" Lord Changjiu sneered.
The reason why major powers are unwilling to provoke the strongest lone universe member is because he has no clan ties, does not need to worry about retaliation, and can find a place to hide at any time, not because of his strength!
The power of the True Demon God, compared to the strongest beings in the Primordial Universe, is probably limited to targeting only a few of the strongest beings in the universe, such as the strongest beings in the Prison Clan and the Crystal Clan, whose strength is relatively average.
"Damn it!" the illusory demon god roared in fury.
Although the Lord of Changjiu was pale, he was still provoking the True Demon God. When had the True Demon God ever suffered such a great humiliation?
Immediately, the illusory demon god erupted and blasted towards the Lord of Changjiu.
Gu Ce, meanwhile, silently reached for the treasure in the center of the temple, and a wisp of Star Stream Sea God Power wrapped around the huge golden heart.
Spiritual imprint integrated!
Instantly recognizes its master!
Such supreme treasures are naturally not easy to be recognized as masters.
This is why the True Demon God felt comfortable letting Gu Ce stand aside while he went to challenge the Lord of Changjiu to a duel.
but--
"Master, I can help you directly recognize that treasure as your master. This is the ability of the Lotus Lord back then," Lian said to Gu Ce.
The speed at which the Divine Might Thunder Prison recognized its master was so fast that even Luo Feng and the Lord of the Thorn Ring, who had been paying close attention to the battlefield, did not notice!
In the blink of an eye, the Divine Might Thunder Prison was recognized as its master by Gu Ce and instantly absorbed into his body.
"What?"
Both the True Demon God and the Lord of Changjiu stared wide-eyed.
How is that possible!
This isn't some weapon you can just pick up and use right away!
For these powerful cosmic lords, treasures of the level of major treasures can be used immediately upon acquisition, and even some ordinary and high-level supreme treasures can be used directly, but supreme treasures are absolutely out of the question.
Even if the process of recognizing a supreme treasure as its master is not as abnormal as that of the Star Tower or the Lotus Ancient City, one still needs to master at least the first layer of secret runes to be able to recognize a supreme treasure as its master!
However, comprehending the secret runes takes time.
How long has it been since the Divine Thunder Prison appeared?
Even a true demon god could not possibly recognize this treasure as his master in such a short time!
Gu Ce, what makes you think you can do that?
"Luo Feng, run!"
Gu Ce didn't care about the two of them anymore. He took out the Lotus Flower Ancient City, grabbed the stunned Luo Feng, threw him into the Lotus Flower Ancient City, and quickly escaped!
After being recognized as a master in the Divine Thunder Prison, the exit of the Divine Temple has been reopened, and people can now leave the temple.
Luo Feng and the Lord of the Thorn Ring can naturally leave, as can the powerful individuals trapped in the passages ahead. The only things that could lead to someone's demise are probably the puppet giant and the first stage of the trial at the Temple of the Divine God.
"Lotus Flower Ancient City!" The True Demon God's pupils contracted slightly.
As the strongest being in the universe who has traversed the primordial universe for many years, he naturally recognized this treasure!
Of course, this is mainly because Gu Ce did not change the appearance of Lianhua Ancient City at all. Moreover, when Gu Ce took Lianhua Ancient City before, the full appearance of Lianhua Ancient City was already revealed.
"The supreme and most precious palace! The Lotus Flower Ancient City, is in the hands of the human Void Realm Lord?" Lord Changjiu couldn't help but exclaim.
Has the human race acquired an ultimate treasure?
As the third strongest among the demon race, Lord Changjiu certainly knew what this meant!
Humanity... may be about to rise!
With this supreme treasure of the palace type, the creator of the giant axe of mankind can explore more places and venture into some dangerous places in the cosmic sea, which may lead to obtaining more supreme treasures... a virtuous cycle!
The creator of the giant axe was already incredibly powerful. This time, during the ambush of the Lord of the Void Realm in the Cosmic Sea, he seemed to have even displayed ninth-tier combat strength. If this supreme treasure were to fall into his hands...
The Lord of Changjiu—I dare not even think about it!
We must return to our tribe immediately to report this!
"what!"
The illusory demon god roared and quickly chased after Gu Ce.
He couldn't accept it; the ultimate treasure that was about to reach his mouth had vanished right before his eyes!
But it's a pity.
The Lotus Flower Ancient City, no matter what, is an extremely powerful treasure, and its flight speed is much faster than that of the Illusory True Demon God.
Soon, Gu Ce rode the Lotus Ancient City away from the Qishen Temple and left the primordial star through the Primal Star Passage.
The Lord of the Thorn Ring stared blankly; everything had happened too suddenly.
Was it a mistake for me to make an enemy of humanity?
This idea even crossed the mind of the Lord of the Thorn Ring.
No, there is still hope!
The Lord of the Thorn Rings thought that as he prepared to return to the Thorn Rings Alliance, the格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall situation or landscape) of the primordial universe might undergo some changes.
