The Universe Master were not surprised by this.
For the first four components of the Apocalyptic Beast Visage Armor, Ender participated in the competition for two of them and successfully acquired them.
Now that the suspected final component had appeared, it was normal for him to act again.
"I'll go with Void River."
At this moment, Swallow Eagle Master spoke, "I have a top-tier sealing palace Arcana treasure in my possession. If Xu Mu Master wants to hide in a flying palace Arcana treasure to delay time and wait for rescue, I can completely suppress her."
After speaking, Swallow Eagle Master smiled and looked at Ender, "You don't mind me interfering, do you?"
Ender smiled and shook his head, "How could I mind? With Swallow Eagle Master, it will be much easier..."
Xu Mu Master was, after all, a Third-rank Universe Master of the Hun Chi Alliance. Although her strength was relatively average, she was equipped with a high-level flying palace Arcana treasure.
If she hid inside a flying palace Arcana treasure, it would be very troublesome for Ender!
Relying solely on Pinnacle Arcana treasures, he would not be able to break through a high-level flying palace Arcana treasure; he would have to use the Dragon Awakening Spear.
Now that Swallow Eagle Master was making a move, he would neither expose the existence of his Arcana treasure nor would he be able to easily acquire the treasure, and he was happy with that.
"If Chiyi Master of the Hun Chi Alliance arrives, you can contact me."
Penggong Master smiled and said, "I will arrive as soon as possible and make him retreat in the face of difficulties."
Chiyi Master was the leader of the Hun Chi Alliance, a Fifth-rank Universe Master, but his strength was not as good as Penggong Master.
"Then let Yanying and Void River make the move, and Penggong Master will be responsible for rescue."
The Huge Axe Creator, sitting on the Main Hall, made the final decision, "Meeting adjourned."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure instantly disappeared.
Even with the Original Star open, the Huge Axe Creator was still venturing in the Universe Ocean. Precisely because he was in the dangerous Universe Ocean, he would not stay in the Virtual Universe for too long.
As the Huge Axe Creator left, some Universe Master remained in the meeting space, while others left directly.
"Void River, you go to Original Star No. 1111 first."
Swallow Eagle Master called out to Ender, "I'll go over when strong individuals from other Alliance forces arrive."
Ender understood immediately upon hearing this, "That's a good idea. Let's do that."
After discussing, their consciousnesses left the meeting space and re-opened a plane space for communication.
...
A few minutes later.
On Original Star No. 1111, there was a brilliant jade-like emerald green palace, emitting a faint glow, very beautiful.
Because the palace gates were still tightly closed, the various forces left some Advanced Venerables teams outside the palace to monitor, while other Advanced Venerables and Universe Overlords had left to acquire treasures.
Boom!
Suddenly, an incredible pressure instantly descended and spread out.
All Universe Venerables on Original Star No. 1111 felt an irresistible restraint, which was complete control over the entire space-time!
"A Universe Master has arrived."
"A Universe Master actually arrived at this time. Are they here to seize the treasures in the palace?"
"When the palace opens, there might be a big battle."
"It's just unknown which Universe Master has arrived."
The Universe Venerables were somewhat surprised. This time, the Original Star had been open for over a million years, and no Universe Master had yet fought for treasures outside the palace. Could this be the first time?
Amidst their surprise, whether they were outside the emerald green palace or in other areas, the Universe Venerables all reported to their respective forces through their Immortal Energy Avatars.
...
Outside a certain vortex channel in mid-air.
Ender, clad in dark golden armor, with his Immortal Energy body reduced to one hundred kilometers tall, understood the current situation of the entire Original Star No. 1111 through his control over space-time.
"On the entire Original Star No. 1111, there are only about a dozen Universe Master inside the palace."
He gazed into the distance, transforming into a streak of light, and flew towards the emerald green palace.
Because the vortex channel where Ender descended was very close to the emerald green palace, he quickly arrived at the palace's location.
Ender's arrival shocked the Universe Venerables left by the various major forces, and they instantly recognized his identity.
"It's him, the Void River Master of the Human Race!"
"The Void River Master has only been famous for a little over a million years, but he has continuously helped the Hong Alliance acquire treasures."
"It seems the Human Alliance truly wants to acquire the treasures in the palace, otherwise they wouldn't let this Universe Master descend."
"Report to the Alliance, the Void River Master has arrived, he must be here for the treasures in the palace!"
While shocked, the Universe Venerables immediately reported to their respective forces through their Immortal Energy Avatars.
The Void River Master of the Human Race had not been famous for long, but he was a powerful Universe Master. Throughout the entire Original Universe, very few strong individuals could suppress him!
Moreover, he was the treasure acquisition vanguard of the Hong Alliance.
During this opening of the Original Star, this newly risen Universe Master had participated in multiple treasure acquisition operations of the Hong Alliance.
With this Universe Master, who frequently participated in treasure acquisitions, descending, it inevitably led the Universe Venerables to speculate that...
A great battle would occur here!
...
Northern Territory Alliance, a certain core Secret Realm.
Within the virtual world covering the entire Secret Realm, there was a high mountain with over a hundred palace complexes, serving as the residences for the Universe Master of the Northern Territory Alliance.
When the Advanced Venerables of the Northern Territory Alliance, who were stationed outside the palace on Original Star No. 1111, reported the news of Ender's arrival to the Alliance.
For a time, over a dozen Universe Master of the Northern Territory Alliance gathered in this virtual world to discuss the matter.
More than ten thrones were arranged in two rows. Apart from the Main Hall at the very top, which was empty, all other thrones were occupied by strong individuals who shook the Universe.
"The Void River Master of the Human Race, who has not been a Universe Master for long, has been exceptionally active during this opening of the Original Star."
Black Lotus Master said softly, "He displayed Fourth-rank combat power in the last palace treasure acquisition, and his Immortal Energy body is as large as a million kilometers, with the ability to create Clones, making him quite troublesome."
"The Northern Territory Alliance has a very high probability of acquiring the treasures in the Main Hall of the palace on Original Star No. 1111."
Star River Master, sitting opposite, slowly said, "Since the Human Alliance has the Void River Master descending, our Northern Territory Alliance must respond."
"Void River Master..."
Zhao Li Master sat among the thrones, listening to the conversation between the two Fifth-rank Universe Master, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
"That Void River Master has extraordinary talent. The Human Race cannot let him acquire treasures alone. It's estimated that other Universe Master from the Hong Alliance will also descend."
Black Lotus Master said indifferently, "The Human Race did that last time when they took treasures from our Northern Territory Alliance."
Upon hearing this, all the Universe Master nodded in agreement.
Last time on Original Star No. 233, when the palace with a diameter of one hundred thousand kilometers appeared, the Hong Alliance initially only had the Void River Master and the Dragon Walk Master descending.
But in the end, Penggong Master and Ice Summit Master arrived!
Penggong Master was a Fifth-rank Universe Master, whose status in the Human Race was second only to the Huge Axe Creator and Primal Chaos City Lord.
And Ice Summit Master was also formidable; although he hadn't created a Fusion supreme secret technique, his treasure configuration was top-tier among Fifth-rank Universe Master.
The arrival of these two strong individuals put them at a clear disadvantage in the treasure acquisition operation for that palace.
Otherwise, even if the Void River Master of the Human Race had displayed Fourth-rank combat power, it wouldn't have led to such a complete defeat for them, forcing them to even abandon other components.
Although they acquired some treasures from the side halls, recouping some losses, they still suffered significant losses.
One must know that to acquire the treasures, they invited over a dozen Universe Master for help, including Rugged Rock Master, a Fourth-rank Universe Master!
"Then I will descend to Original Star No. 1111 first. The Main Hall inside the palace has not yet opened, and there is still a long time until the gates open."
Zhao Li Master said, "With my strength, I can suppress that Void River Master and force other Universe Master of the Hong Alliance to descend."
"Yaoyi, you go with Zhao Li."
Black Lotus Master heard this, pondered for a moment, and his gaze fell upon a Universe Master resembling a four-leaf clover. Yaoyi Master nodded slightly and agreed.
"Then this matter is settled."
Star River Master said, "Zhao Li, Yaoyi. If a Fifth-rank Universe Master from the Human Alliance descends, you contact us."
"Understood."
Zhao Li Master and Yaoyi Master replied.
Original Star No. 1111 was not far from the Northern Territory Alliance. With their combined strength, even if Penggong Master descended, they could hold out until rescue arrived.
...
Virtual Universe, special plane space.
Two thrones stood amidst the chaotic airflow, with Ender and Swallow Eagle Master seated upon them.
"The Main Hall of the palace on Original Star No. 1111 has not yet opened."
Swallow Eagle Master said softly, "However, from the intelligence obtained from Venerable Kuiye, it's highly likely that the Northern Territory Alliance will acquire the treasures in the Main Hall."
"The Northern Territory Alliance has a large number of people and is close to Original Star No. 1111. There are seven Universe Master who have descended into the palace."
Ender slowly said, "Among them are Qi Lan Master and Annihilation Snow Master. It's not surprising for them to acquire treasures in the Main Hall."
Qi Lan Master was at the Third-rank Pinnacle, and Annihilation Snow Master was at the Third-rank top. Both of their strengths ranked among the top among the Universe Master who entered the palace.
"Our target is not the treasures in the hands of the Northern Territory Alliance."
Ender added, "Even if strong individuals from the Northern Territory Alliance descend to confront us, as long as we don't make a move, they won't actively provoke a conflict."
The Northern Territory Alliance's strength was indeed formidable. Apart from the Ancestral God Sect, which held a transcendent status, the number of Universe Master far exceeded that of the other seven super forces.
However, the Hong Alliance's strength was also not bad. There were sixty Universe Master openly, and about forty Universe Master.
Although the Northern Territory Alliance was quite aggressive in acquiring treasures, they would not actively provoke other super forces and needlessly antagonize them.
As long as other super forces did not make a move to acquire treasures, even if there were some private grudges, everyone would still live in peace.
Swallow Eagle Master smiled and said, "With Void River guarding the palace, it won't be long before a Fourth-rank Universe Master from the Northern Territory Alliance descends."
At this moment, Ender said indifferently, "They are already here."
...
Original Star No. 1111.
As the Universe Venerables gradually adapted to the invisible restraint, they suddenly found that the invisible restraint had disappeared, and they felt incredibly relaxed.
"The suppression of space-time control has disappeared."
"Another Universe Master has arrived."
"This newly arrived Universe Master is most likely here for that Void River Master of the Human Race."
"Before the Universe Master meet, we should leave quickly to avoid being affected."
Feeling the invisible restraint disappear, many Universe Venerables rushed towards the nearby vortex channels, not wanting to be affected by the possible ensuing battle between Universe Master.
"Zhao Li Master, Yaoyi Master."
Ender was somewhat surprised to sense the arrival of two Universe Master.
With his usual Fourth-rank combat power, it actually caused the Northern Territory Alliance to directly dispatch two Fourth-rank Universe Master to deal with him.
Before long.
Zhao Li Master and Yaoyi Master flew to the sky above the emerald green palace.
"The Void River Master of the Human Race!"
A sharp glint flashed in Zhao Li Master's eyes. The previous failure to acquire the treasure still bothered him.
That was his closest chance to exchange for a top-tier flying palace Arcana treasure, but the failure to acquire it made him miss the opportunity to exchange.
Now, that top-tier flying palace Arcana treasure had fallen into the hands of another Fourth-rank Universe Master of the Alliance, and there were no more top-tier flying palace Arcana treasures available for exchange in the Alliance's treasury!
There was no other way; top-tier flying palace Arcana treasures were too precious. Once they entered the Alliance's treasury, they would inevitably attract fierce competition from numerous Fourth-rank Universe Master.
With a top-tier flying palace Arcana treasure, one's life would be guaranteed when venturing in the Universe Ocean, allowing one to enter various dangerous places to acquire treasures.
Even the True God would find it difficult to kill a Universe Master who possessed a top-tier flying palace Arcana treasure.
"I cannot make a move. I must wait for him to make the first move!"
Although a sharp glint flashed in Zhao Li Master's eyes, he knew deeply that he could not actively provoke a conflict.
The Void River Master of the Human Race had an unusual identity, similar to figures like Changjiu of the Demon race, highly valued and favored by the Human Race.
If he were to attack him, it would inevitably provoke a strong backlash from the Human Alliance, and at that time, the Northern Territory Alliance and the Hong Alliance might engage in a great battle.
A great battle between two super forces would inevitably be extremely tragic, and Universe Master would fall!
"Zhao Li Master, Yaoyi Master."
Ender looked at the two arriving Universe Master and said indifferently, "I didn't expect my arrival to cause both of you to descend together."
Yaoyi Master asked, "Void River Master, what is the purpose of your descent this time?"
"Descending to the Original Star is naturally for seeking and acquiring treasures."
Ender smiled and said, "Aren't you two descending with the same purpose?"
"Our purpose for descending is different from yours."
Yaoyi Master's voice was gentle, "We are here to receive Alliance members, to prevent the treasures we've obtained from being taken away by others."
"Yaoyi, why say so much to that Void River Master of the Human Race?"
Zhao Li Master transmitted with some displeasure, "If he has the guts to come and acquire treasures, let him!"
"This Void River Master of the Human Race will likely become a figure like Changjiu of the Demon race in the future. Offending him for no reason is not a good thing."
Yaoyi Master transmitted back, "Besides, we are here to receive Universe Master like Qilan and Annihilation Snow. We can't just actively start a war with the Human Alliance, can we?"
"Then you can have a good conversation with the Void River Master of the Human Race."
Zhao Li Master transmitted with a cold snort, "Anyway, you have a good reputation. Maybe you can make him give up on acquiring treasures."
"Void River Master, do you have a target for this treasure acquisition?"
Yaoyi Master, hearing this, didn't pay much attention and continued to converse with Ender.
"I naturally have a target."
Ender transmitted, "There's no need for your Northern Territory Alliance to know."
"Since that's the case, then we'll wait here."
Yaoyi Master said indifferently, "When the palace opens, I will naturally know."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two stopped conversing and quietly waited for the palace to open.
...
Two years later.
Ender, Zhao Li Master, and Yaoyi Master of the Northern Territory Alliance stood in the air, overlooking the jade-like emerald green palace below, which was constantly trembling.
They all knew that the palace beneath their feet was about to open!
