Pinnacle of the Sixth Tier

Inside the Black Prison Tower, within a silent space shrouded in endless black mist, two afterimages were swiftly drawn in: one was the tumbling Sirius, and the other was the Mohu Beast, an exotic beast with three tails, a scaly body, and a triangular head. One was the Sirius Master, the other the Mohu Master, both true ancestral figures from two major Demon Race clans. Yet, at this moment, they found themselves imprisoned. “This is bad,” the Sirius Master blinked, rousing himself from the previous illusion, and immediately roared. Beside him, the Mohu Master also grew anxious. “Sirius, what do we do? We’ve been imprisoned in that Supreme True Treasure, the Black Prison Tower!” the Mohu Master exclaimed, panicked. “The Black Prison Tower…” The Sirius Master anxiously scanned his surroundings. The spatial fluctuations were completely isolated from the outside. Teleportation? Divine Kingdom transmission? Escape was impossible. “I… I don’t have a clone!” the Sirius Master cried out in distress. It was over! This was truly a nightmare. Not to mention them, even a Universe Supreme Master, once imprisoned within a ‘Supreme True Treasure Palace,’ had no chance of escape. If they had clones, it would be different. But neither the Sirius Master nor the Mohu Master held high status among the Demon Race Universe Masters, and neither possessed a clone. If they had clones, their status would naturally be different. Even if suppressed within a Supreme True Treasure Palace, those with clones could immediately self-detonate! While this meant losing their precious true treasures and other valuables, at least their lives would be preserved! “Wait,” the Sirius Master roared repeatedly. “We’ll wait for an opportunity. The Dream Demon Ancestor is still outside; we still have a chance. I believe the Shocking Demon Ancestor will also arrive soon. Once they seize this Black Prison Tower from the Human Race, we can still get out.” “Yes, yes,” the Mohu Master, unable to think of any other solution, clung to this one. “The Dream Demon Ancestor, the Shocking Demon Ancestor, they will surely rescue us!” …“No!” “Damn it!” As the Demon Race Universe Masters roared and the Dream Demon Ancestor, flying at incredible speed, shrieked in fury, their adversaries, the Human Race, were naturally overjoyed. Peng Gong Master, Dark Master, Luo Feng, and a large group of other Universe Masters all smiled, their hearts filled with immense satisfaction and happiness. “Our primary objective has been achieved! We’ve eliminated one Universe Master and captured two others—and specifically the Sirius Master and Mohu Master, who lack clones, meaning they have no escape!” Peng Gong Master exclaimed excitedly within the Virtual Universe. “For countless eons, it’s rare for even a single Universe Master to fall. Today, the Demon Race has lost three to us in one go. When this news spreads, those smaller factions, whose strength is far inferior to the Demon Race’s… will naturally be terrified. If we can inflict such losses on the Demon Race, even in the presence of their Supreme Masters like the Dream Demon Ancestor, then dealing with and annihilating smaller factions will be effortless!” “Indeed.” “The primary objective is met. Now, kill and capture as many as you can. The more we eliminate, the more we capture, the better the outcome.” Luo Feng, Peng Gong, and Dark Master were all exhilarated. With the Black Prison Tower, the Yanjun Staff, and Luo Feng’s treasures, the Human Race now boasted three Sixth-tier Universe Masters. While they might be at a disadvantage in terms of movement speed, in overall combat, especially against the Demon Race alone, they held a definite advantage. However, Luo Feng and the others were acutely aware… The Duan Dong River legacy! It was destined to attract various factions. The Human Race wouldn’t just be facing the Demon Race; their pressure was immense. A single Dream Demon Ancestor was already terrifying. What if three or five Universe Supreme Masters appeared? A coordinated sweep might even suppress and seal Peng Gong Master. “Regardless of the final outcome of this war,” Luo Feng mused silently, “from the very beginning, we must give it our all. This battle against the Demon Race… is merely the first, a war of deterrence. We must perform at our absolute best to ensure other major factions don’t rush to intervene, making them believe they can wait and reap the benefits later.” If the Human Race appeared weak? Other major factions would fear that humanity would be swiftly defeated and subjugated, rushing in to claim their share before it was too late. But if humanity displayed terrifying strength, those factions would, firstly, be unwilling to pay too high a price, and secondly, wouldn’t worry that the Demon Race, Mechanical Race, or Insect Race could completely defeat humanity in a short time. They would naturally watch from the sidelines. As long as the Human Race was given a chance to breathe… then anything was possible! After all, Luo Feng had already explained the path from Universe Master to Universe Supreme Master to every Universe Master. Perhaps, at a critical moment, one of the Dark Master, Peng Gong Master, or Chaos City Lord would achieve a breakthrough. Once that happened, the Human Race’s chances would increase dramatically. “If I could break through to Universe Master, the situation would be vastly different,” Luo Feng mused. “Currently, only my Earthling True Body and Golden Horn Behemoth Clone possess formidable combat power.” “But once I break through to Universe Master, my Demon Killer Clone and Abyssal Sea Clone… will both possess Sixth-tier combat power. At that point, the Human Race’s situation will greatly improve.” Pinnacle of the Sixth Tier. This was already the strongest combat power in the Primal Universe! Achieving the pinnacle of the Sixth Tier was incredibly difficult, generally requiring a Fifth-tier pinnacle Universe Master combined with a Supreme True Treasure! The Human Race only had three Fifth-tier pinnacle Universe Masters (Dark Master, Peng Gong Master, Chaos City Lord). Therefore, even if they acquired two or three more Supreme True Treasures, giving them to Ice Peak Master or Dragon Walk Master would not allow them to unleash Sixth-tier pinnacle power. Just as when Luo Feng’s comprehension of laws was still lacking, even with the Star Tower, he could only unleash a tiny fraction of its power. A powerful individual and a true treasure—neither could be absent! Only then could Sixth-tier combat power be formed. Luo Feng was different. He had created the Universe Supreme Master-level secret art, 'Nirvana Rebirth,' which allowed him to unleash Sixth-tier pinnacle combat power even without a Supreme True Treasure! …“The Dream Demon Ancestor is here!” “That old geezer.” The Human Race faction all noticed the Dream Demon Ancestor charging at an incredibly terrifying speed. “I’ll block him,” Luo Feng quickly said. “Peng Gong, Dark Master, you two continue dealing with that group of Demon Race Universe Masters. Try to capture a few more.” “Alright.” “Understood.” Peng Gong and Dark Master had witnessed Luo Feng’s power earlier and were full of confidence in him. Whoosh~~~~ The four silver wings behind Luo Feng suddenly expanded, vast and mighty, seemingly obscuring half the starry sky. He hovered there, Blood Shadow Blade in hand, watching the Dream Demon Ancestor charging at incredible speed. At this moment, the Dream Demon Ancestor appeared utterly insane, letting out furious, piercing roars: “Luo Feng!!!” “Go!” Luo Feng’s mind stirred. Boom! A massive Tombstone Boat appeared out of thin air. The Tombstone Boat and the Dream Demon Ancestor, who couldn’t slow down in time, collided directly. Because the Tombstone Boat had just been summoned and its internal power was only beginning to operate, it was pushed back slightly. Luo Feng immediately waved his hand, retracting the Tombstone Boat. “Detestable Human!” After the collision, the Dream Demon Ancestor still charged furiously at Luo Feng. It was too enraged. “Whoosh!” The Dream Demon Ancestor’s serpent head suddenly opened its massive maw. Swish! A cyan phantom streaked across the sky, darting towards Luo Feng. “Hmph!” The Blood Shadow Blade in Luo Feng’s hand was instantly swung out, forming an extremely thin blade gleam that rapidly thickened, directly forming a massive black miniature universe that enveloped the cyan phantom. Then, the miniature universe split open… A thin ray of light flashed and vanished, and the cyan phantom swiftly flew back into the Dream Demon Ancestor’s mouth. After just one exchange, the Dream Demon Ancestor stared at Luo Feng. “Such formidable blade techniques, and a Supreme True Treasure?” The Dream Demon Ancestor pondered how to deal with Luo Feng. It discovered that Luo Feng’s blade gleam… possessed terrifying penetrative power! If the Yanjun Staff’s might lay in its ‘heaviness,’ then Luo Feng’s blade strike was all about ‘sharpness’—it was far too keen! Luo Feng’s four silver wings spread behind him as he watched the Dream Demon Ancestor. The pinnacle of the Sixth Tier was indeed the limit of power that could be unleashed within the Primal Universe. “When I execute ‘Nirvana Rebirth,’ I can faintly feel a kind of obstruction,” Luo Feng mused. “I didn’t expect this so-called Sixth-tier pinnacle limit to affect not only Universe Supreme Masters but also Universe Venerables and Universe Masters.” Before this, there had never been a Sixth-tier Universe Master in the entire Primal Universe. Even if Supreme True Treasures existed, they were always wielded by Universe Supreme Masters! Now, Luo Feng, Dark Master, and Peng Gong Master were all at the Sixth-tier level, and all three felt that layer of obstruction. “That’s right,” Luo Feng thought. “This Sixth-tier pinnacle limit is the Primal Universe’s will suppressing Universe Supreme Masters, preventing them from wanton slaughter. But it wouldn’t suppress them to the point of being weaker than Universe Masters! So, even a Universe Master can, at most, unleash Sixth-tier pinnacle power.” There had been many rumors before, but no factual basis. Only now that Luo Feng, Dark Master, and Peng Gong Master had reached the Sixth-tier pinnacle could they clearly feel… the inability to break through, encountering an extremely powerful obstruction the moment they approached. “For true Universe Masters, the Sixth-tier pinnacle is indeed the theoretical limit,” Luo Feng mused. “The Primal Universe isn’t wrong in doing this. But I… I’m different from them, and I’m at a disadvantage.” Through generations of reincarnation eras… Luo Feng emerged as a special existence, for he had obtained the Duan Dong River legacy! Thus, he possessed the Blood Shadow Blade! This Blood Shadow Blade allowed him to unleash a higher level of power! The 'Annihilation' secret art, created by the third generation Ancestral Master, could further enhance his strength once activated! Therefore, if there were no obstruction, and Luo Feng truly fought with all his might, using 'Annihilation,' he could unleash Seventh-tier combat power (the strength of the most ordinary Universe Supreme Master in the Universe Ocean). If he reached Universe Master… he could unleash Eighth-tier combat power! Alas, while the Primal Universe suppressed Universe Supreme Masters, it wouldn’t suppress them to the point of being weaker than Universe Masters. After all, the Dream Demon Ancestor possessed nearly Eighth-tier combat power in the Universe Ocean. In the Primal Universe, it could only unleash Sixth-tier pinnacle combat power. “Human, you detestable fellow, if this were the Universe Ocean, how could you be my opponent?” the Dream Demon Ancestor roared. Luo Feng, holding the Blood Shadow Blade, sneered, “Xuzhen Demon God once said the same thing to the Two-faced Ancestral God. Unfortunately, this is the Primal Universe!” …Just as Luo Feng and the Dream Demon Ancestor had barely begun their exchange, a terrifying surge of power suddenly erupted from where the Demon Race Universe Masters were being besieged. From within the Supreme True Treasure Palace beside the Demon Race’s ‘Extinction Master,’ an exotic beast with a serrated shell slowly crawled out. “Shocking Demon Ancestor!” The Demon Race Universe Masters immediately cried out in excitement.
