Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

“Such incomparably precious treasures should be given to the strongest members of the clan.”

laugh!

As soon as the Lord of the Wilderness spoke, the originally joyful and noisy scene immediately fell silent.

“That’s right. The most powerful treasures in other races are also controlled by the strongest beings in the universe. Only in the hands of the strongest beings in the universe can the full power of the most powerful treasures be unleashed,” a cosmic lord echoed.

"A warning!"

The Lord of Chaos City frowned and retorted, "This supreme treasure can be said to have been obtained by Lord Ultra through his own abilities. Even without the help of the Hong Alliance, I believe he could have taken this treasure away with his own strength."

"On the contrary, I think this supreme treasure can only unleash its true power in the hands of the Lord of Ultra. We have truly experienced this in the battle just now."

“That’s right, I agree with Chaos on this point. This supreme treasure can still unleash heaven-defying power in the hands of the Lord of Ultra.” Some universe lords also sided with the Lord of Chaos.

"The Lord of Ultra is also a member of the human race. If he were not the universe's ruler, he would have been expelled by the major powers from the very beginning," the Lord of Desolate Mirror retorted.

“This supreme treasure should belong to the entire human race,” Qingdong suddenly interjected.

"The Lord of Ultra made a huge contribution in the struggle for this supreme treasure, so the human race will make corresponding compensation for this."

"Humanity cannot provide compensation commensurate with the supreme treasure," said the Chaos City Lord.

The Lord of Chaos City and the Lord of the Desolate Mirror were arguing endlessly, each representing the human race's universe lord and their respective inclinations regarding this supreme treasure.

However, most of the universe's rulers seem to support giving this supreme treasure to the creator of the giant axe.

Seeing this, Peng Gongzhi, who was standing to the side, gradually realized what the problem was.

Under normal circumstances, even if the cosmic lord of a race obtains the most powerful treasure, it should indeed be given to the strongest person to use.

However, firstly, the fact that the human race was able to seize this supreme treasure this time was almost entirely due to the Lord of Ultra.

Secondly, the Lord of Ultra is very powerful, and his strength among humans is probably even slightly greater than that of the Lord of Chaos City.

Moreover, the Lord of Ultra is not only powerful, but his speed of improvement is also terrifying. In just tens of thousands of years, he has reached a level of power that many universe lords cannot reach.

We must never allow unfair treatment to befall such powerful and highly talented individuals.

Finally, and most importantly, the Lord of Ultra has only been the ruler of the universe for a very short time.

Having been the ruler of the universe for only about 100,000 years, it means that he has neither enjoyed enough benefits from his race nor made long-term contributions. The entanglement between the Ultra Lord and the human race is not that profound.

As the master of the universe, Master Peng Gong naturally had his own understanding. His recognition and selflessness towards the entire race were habits that had been gradually formed over many years, rather than something that suddenly appeared.

If this problem is not handled properly, the Lord of Ultra might become the second Yan Emperor.

Even if the Lord of Ultra were to leave now with this supreme treasure, the entire human race would be unable to stop him.

Peng Gongzhi kept thinking, and then couldn't help but focus his gaze on the two parties involved: the founder of the giant axe and the Ultraman Lord.

At this moment, the two parties involved calmly watched the arguing crowd.

Seeing the calm expression on Ultraman's face, Peng Gong was suddenly startled and thought of a question.

That is, all the information they have so far about the Lord of Ultra seems to have come from the Lord of Chaos City.

They seemed to know nothing about the Lord of Ultra's initial growth experience.

"Lord of Chaos City, what are you hiding?"

Chapter 345 City of Light

"Chaos, a supreme treasure should not be controlled by a single cosmic ruler," the Lord of the Desolate Mirror said in a deep voice.

“But the Lord of Ultra has the qualifications.” The Lord of Chaos City remained steadfast in his belief, leaving the silent Lord of the Human Universe somewhat puzzled.

They originally thought that the Lord of Chaos City and the Lord of Desolate Mirror were arguing simply to try to secure more benefits for the Lord of Ultra.

Then, through this debate, the purpose will be made clear first, so as to avoid secretly depriving the supreme treasure in the hands of the Lord of Ultra.

However, amidst the debate, to the surprise of the Human Universe Lord, the Chaos City Lord seemed genuinely interested in having the Ultraman Lord take control of this supreme treasure.

"It's just a supreme treasure. We absolutely cannot let our junior brother develop bad feelings towards the human race because of a single treasure," the Chaos City Lord thought to himself.

After all, no matter how precious a treasure is, it can't compare to the best, let alone a genius who can surpass the original ancestor.

With the Chaos City Lord's insistence, some Universe Lords also changed their views and wanted to support the Ultra Lord in taking control of this supreme treasure.

Although they were not familiar with the Lord of Ultra, they absolutely trusted the Lord of Chaos City.

The Chaos Lord has been in charge of the human race for billions of years, managing its major affairs. He also led the human race through the most dangerous time when the original ancestor was sealed away, together with the Giant Axe Founder. Naturally, he has gained the absolute trust of the human race.

"chaos!"

Lord of Desolation frowned, wanting to ask Lord of Chaos City why he was so insistent.

"All right!"

Just as the two sides were arguing, the Giant Axe Founder suddenly spoke up.

The arguing group immediately stopped and all turned their attention to the giant axe.

“This supreme treasure should rightfully be in the possession of the Lord of Ultra,” the Giant Axe Creator said slowly. “Just now, I discussed it with the Primordial Ancestor in the virtual universe, and there is no one in the entire human race more suitable than the Lord of Ultra.”

"Original Ancestor!"

Upon hearing this name, the rulers of the universe immediately understood.

Unlike the original Schrödinger's existence in the original work, the original Schrödinger can communicate with the outside world every once in a while because of the Ultra clones.

Therefore, when the Primordial Ancestor was able to communicate, the Human Race's Universe Lord would also visit him in prison, and take the opportunity to receive some guidance from the Primordial Ancestor.

With his current level of attainment, comparable to a true god of the void, the primordial ancestor is more than capable of guiding this group of universe lords.

"I see!"

With the endorsement of two of the strongest beings in the universe among the human race, the universe lords, who had previously had some disagreements, instantly reached a consensus.

Although they still didn't quite understand why a universe lord would be in charge of the most powerful treasure, given the primordial ancestor's level, these universe lords dared not speculate, as there must be something they hadn't noticed.

After finalizing the ownership of the supreme treasure, the Giant Axe Founder turned his attention to the Lord of Ultra: "However, the human race has indeed paid a price for this supreme treasure."

"Therefore, Lord Ultra, you are required to offer ten supreme treasures to the human race free of charge in the years to come. Are you willing?"

"Ten supreme treasures!"

Upon hearing this number, the surrounding cosmic lords gasped in shock.

For a cosmic ruler, this number of supreme treasures would likely be impossible to collect even by the end of this cycle unless they encountered the remnants of the strongest being.

“Yes, I have some treasures on hand, and I’ll take this opportunity to give them to the human race.”

Ultraman didn't care about these treasures; his main body still had Jie Fanzi's treasure trove, a bunch of top-tier treasures, more than enough to equip the entire human race with a set.

"I have a feeling that the entire cosmic sea will be somewhat turbulent in the coming days. You should all take this opportunity to make up for any shortcomings you may have," said Ultraman's clone.

Hearing Ultraman's words, the human race's universe master should have had some premonition about the upcoming turbulence in the cosmic sea.

After all, the sudden appearance of the most powerful treasure on the Primordial Star, along with the previous rare artifacts and the universe master comparable to the strongest being, all indicate that something big is likely to happen in the Primordial Universe in the near future.

However, everyone had some doubts about Ultraman Lord's suggestion to arm themselves.

"Everyone, I will keep the City of Light permanently in the primordial universe and will not take it to the cosmic sea," the Lord of Ultra said slowly.

"what?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately shocked. With the strength of the Lord of Ultra, it seemed that whether or not he possessed a supreme treasure in the primordial universe made little difference.

If it cannot be used in the Cosmic Sea, even a supreme treasure is not that significant for a top-tier universe.

“Lord of Ultra…” Lord Aragami on the other side opened his mouth.

Before he could say anything, Ultraman's clone interrupted him: "The greatest value of the City of Light is that it serves as a special treasure, eternally suppressing the entire race in the primordial universe."

Putting aside the City of Light, Ultraman himself had no intention of setting foot in the Ocean of Space.

After obtaining this treasure, Ultraman's clone did not intend to carry it with him. Since the treasure's function overlapped somewhat with his own Time and Space Wings, it was better to leave it with the human race.

"Lord of Ultra, I apologize for the previous argument," Lord of Desolation said without hesitation.

Once the Lord of Ultra made his decision, the Human Race's Universe Lord understood that the Primordial Ancestor and the Giant Axe Founder had probably already discussed this matter.

Judging from the City of Light's performance just now, its greatest value is truly to remain in the primordial universe as a clan treasure.

If it were in the cosmic sea, the City of Light would probably be just an ordinary, supreme treasure.

However, within the primordial universe, the City of Light was considered the most precious treasure in the universe, and its value to humanity was subtly greater than that of the virtual universe network.

The power of a single seventh-order being in the primordial universe is even greater than the deterrent power of the strongest being in the universe.

Although the requirements for achieving this level of combat power are very high, given the performance of the original star just now, everyone is quite confident.

Therefore, the Lord of Ultra is undoubtedly the one who sits in charge of and wields this treasure of the City of Light.

"If the City of Light remains in the primordial universe forever, then no matter what problems humanity encounters before the end of this cycle, it will be free from worry."

Peng Gongzhi's face also lit up with joy.

To put it bluntly, even if the creator of the giant axe were to suddenly perish one day, with this supreme treasure, the human race could still survive until the next strongest being is born.

"Humanity has a virtual universe network, the City of Light, and the Giant Axe Founder. Even if the Demon Race, the Insect Race, and the Machine Race join forces, they will surely suffer a crushing defeat," a Universe Lord said proudly.

"I just hope that the City of Light will not have to send out troops a second time."

Ultraman's clone shook his head. Unless they were targeted by the power of most of the original universe, as in the original story, even if the Giant Axe Founder perished, the three races would not launch an attack rashly.

After finalizing the arrangements for the supreme treasure, the human race's cosmic lords also departed one after another. Some prepared to return to their territories to recuperate and restore their depleted divine bodies, while others changed to another vortex passage to return to the original star.

As everyone departed, the Lord of Chaos City also left with Ultraman's clone.

"Lord of Ultra, don't hold a grudge against Lord of Desolation because of this," said the Lord of Chaos City. "Desolation was only considering the interests of the entire human race, and it also represents the thoughts of a portion of the universe's lords."

"Don't worry, senior brother, I won't hold a grudge over such a small matter."

Ultraman's clone nodded. The ownership of this supreme treasure was indeed something that the original ancestor, the creator of the giant axe, and the three of them had discussed beforehand.

Upon witnessing the Lord of Ultra unleash a seventh-order divine power attack, the Giant Axe Founder decided to leave this supreme treasure in the primordial universe.

After all, giving this supreme treasure to the creator of the giant axe was merely icing on the cake, but if it remained in the human territory, it would be a treasure to protect the clan.

"Yes, junior brother, with the City of Light guarding the Primal Universe, you can be considered another holy land for the human race."

The Lord of Chaos City laughed and said that under normal circumstances, several universe lords would guard important places of the clan, so that it would be easier to overcome major calamities.
