Chapter 328 Storm Gathers Outside the Star Tower
While the three progenitors were discussing how to deal with Chen Yuan in the territory of the Yan God Clan, Chen Yuan, who was cultivating in the Star Tower, was completely unaware of the matter.
Until he suddenly felt that a force had sealed off the surrounding space and time.
"teacher."
Chen Yuan opened his eyes and looked at the Mountain-Sitting Guest beside him: "Such powerful spacetime sealing power. It doesn't seem like the spacetime control of a universe master, but more like the power of the strongest being in the universe?"
"Um."
The Mountain Guest remained calm. "The Mechanical Ancestor, the Zerg Queen, and the two Demon Ancestors of the Demon Race have all arrived. These four ancestors are working together to seal off the space-time around the Star Tower."
"The four strongest individuals have gathered. Could it be that they have discovered something?" Chen Yuan's heart stirred. He was prepared for the consequences of the information being exposed. After all, he knew that this day would come sooner or later when he made his own information public.
However, he was slightly surprised that the news was leaked so quickly.
In response to this question, the Mountain-Sitting Guest said, "Your second senior brother, Emperor Yan, is also here. It seems that because of your creation of the King Armor, these three races have come after Emperor Yan."
"Emperor Yan?" Chen Yuan asked in surprise, "He dares to betray you, teacher?"
"Betrayal, I wouldn't call it that," the Mountain-Sitting Guest chuckled. "He's probably being cornered at his doorstep by the four strongest men, and to save his own life, he had no choice but to leak the information."
"Besides, the information he revealed is irrelevant to me, but it's quite troublesome for you, my disciple."
At this point, the mountain hermit gave his disciple a warning look: "Don't even think about asking me for help with this matter, and don't blame your second senior brother either. To be frank, he's also implicated because of you."
"After all, if you hadn't studied the King Armor back then, the alien race wouldn't have come after your second senior brother."
"Disciple understands." Chen Yuan nodded, his eyes thoughtful.
Indeed, compared to the original story, the biggest reason for his exposure was because of the King Armor. The human race relied on this equipment to achieve a great victory on the battlefield outside the domain, but it also attracted the attention of the alien ancestor.
As the only race to master the King Armor technology, it's not surprising that the Yan God Clan was approached by the three alien races. With the strength of the Yan Emperor, under the coercion of the four strongest individuals, he had no choice but to bow his head and reveal important information about himself.
Ultimately, it was because Chen Yuan was too high-profile. If he had kept his identity hidden, the alien races wouldn't have discovered him so quickly.
However, to say I'm afraid is not really an exaggeration.
Even without the Star Tower, with his strength approaching that of a fifth-order universe master, plus the supreme treasure, the Primordial Palace, how could he be afraid of these strongest beings who could only exert the top-tier strength of the sixth order in the primordial universe?
Just then, Chen Yuan felt the spacetime power around him become denser, and the entire Star Tower trembled slightly.
"teacher?"
The Mountain-Sitting Guest was well aware of what was happening outside, and said calmly, "Don't be afraid, it's just a few of the strongest people trying to move the Star Tower."
"They want to move the Star Tower to the alien territory to prevent you from gaining control of this supreme treasure in the future."
"I see." Chen Yuan gave a long "Oh," and didn't ask anything more.
This posture, however, aroused the curiosity of the Mountain-Sitting Guest: "Disciple, aren't you afraid? What if the Star Tower is moved to the small universe of some powerful being? You could be in danger."
"After so many years of fighting, if I still think that the Star Tower is just an ordinary supreme treasure, then Master is underestimating me too much."
Chen Yuan smiled confidently: "Does Master think that I don't know what a true supreme palace looks like?"
The mountain dweller felt a slight sense of satisfaction, then chuckled and said, "I almost forgot about your Shiyuan Palace."
"Alright, I won't lie to you. The Star Tower is indeed very special, even surpassing ordinary supreme treasures."
"You can rest assured that even the four strongest individuals will not be able to shake the Star Tower, especially an unclaimed Star Tower."
Chen Yuan understood that before he took control, the unclaimed Star Tower had always relied on drawing power from itself to stabilize its form, which was far more powerful than having someone in control.
After all, when it is controlled by someone else, it still needs to analyze the secret patterns and improve its control layer by layer. However, when it is unowned, the Star Tower uses its full power!
A divine treasure of the God-King, unclaimed and unclaimed, could be shaken by a mere four true gods? That would be a gross underestimation of the true value of the title "God-King."
"This disciple has never worried."
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Let them make a scene outside; it won't affect us here anyway."
"Besides, they may not be able to stay here forever."
Just then, he suddenly received a message in the virtual universe from Giant Axe, asking to meet him.
So Chen Yuan separated a wisp of his consciousness and entered the virtual universe, arriving at the summit of Thunder Island, in his own residence, which was also the meeting place the two had agreed upon.
Soon, the giant axe arrived and asked in a deep voice, "Chen Yuan, I just received news that the ancestors of the three alien races have all mobilized and gathered outside the Star Tower, intending to move the Star Tower."
"Has this affected you in any way? Do you need my help?"
Giant Axe understood that one of Chen Yuan's clones was undergoing the recognition ceremony inside the Star Tower, and he was worried that the other party would be affected by it.
"Don't worry, Giant Axe, I'm fine." Chen Yuan shook his head. "The Star Tower is of an extraordinary grade. Even the strongest individuals couldn't shake it, let alone break through its defenses to enter its inner space."
"I see, then I'm relieved." Giant Axe breathed a slight sigh of relief, then asked curiously, "What's gotten into these people that they suddenly decided to join forces to move the Star Tower?"
"I was almost about to step in and stop them."
"They must have discovered my identity." Chen Yuan explained the relationship between Wang Jia, Yan Di, and Zuo Shan Ke, and then the giant axe suddenly realized: "I see. They are afraid that you will inherit the Star Tower, thus allowing the human race to also possess the most powerful treasure."
"That's how it is." Chen Yuan nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "However, I suggest you still come over. There should be quite a few human experts remaining inside the Star Tower. If they fall into the hands of the alien race..."
"Don't worry." Giant Axe nodded. "My true form is already on its way. In fact, I only learned about this after receiving news from those King-level experts."
"That's good." Chen Yuan said, "You don't need to worry about my safety, and you don't need to pay attention to those alien ancestors. After I take control of the Star Tower, I'll deal with them slowly."
"OK."
After the conversation ended, Chen Yuan returned to reality, and soon after, he felt another force coming from the outside world.
"Your human race's founder of the giant axe has arrived." The Mountain-Sitting Guest glanced at his disciple. "Did you send him?"
"Pretty much, I was just on the phone with Giant Axe."
Chen Yuan truthfully replied, "However, I didn't bring him here to help me, but to have him take away the human powerhouses left behind in the Star Tower."
"I see." The mountain hermit nodded indifferently. In reality, he had only asked casually and had no intention of helping at all.
Because he knew in his heart that his disciple had grown up and that even the strongest could not defeat him.
"Teacher, don't worry about what's going on outside."
Chen Yuan smiled calmly as well, "Please continue to explain the next steps of the treasure refining technique to me."
..
While the master and apprentice inside the Star Tower resumed their lessons, the atmosphere outside the Star Tower was already extremely tense, and could erupt at any moment.
"Giant Axe".
The black sphere gazed at the towering, savage giant in the distance and said calmly, "You actually came in person. It seems our guess was correct; the Star Tower is indeed related to the human race. It's that Chen Yuan, isn't it?"
"Take a guess?" Giant Axe grinned.
"Giant Axe, you have no chance to be arrogant today." The silver-white snake head sneered, "Today, our three races have united for only one goal: to kill your human race's genius."
The slender figure in the light said softly, "Today, all four of our ancestors have gathered. Even if you were to come in person, you couldn't change the outcome, Giant Axe."
"Haha, to put it bluntly, you guys came here for the Star Tower, right?"
Giant Axe laughed loudly, showing no sign of anxiety: "Fine, I won't stop you. If you have the ability, feel free to take this tower with you."
"I came here only for the human powerhouses who remain inside the tower."
"Hand the person over to me, and I'll leave immediately without disturbing you."
Upon hearing this, the progenitors exchanged glances. The Mechanical Progenitor questioned, "Is Chen Yuan currently inside the Star Tower, and you intend to use this opportunity to rescue him?"
"If you're not comfortable with that, you can oversee it yourself," Giant Axe said calmly. "I can let you screen them first before handing them over to me."
The progenitor of machines fell silent, somewhat puzzled by the giant axe's purpose. Was it merely for the sake of becoming a king?
It should be noted that, due to the "Primordial Secret Records", most of the human kings have returned to their territories. Although there are still quite a few human kings still lingering in the Star Tower, their numbers are only half of what they were at their peak.
Is it really for these people that Giant Axe is willing to make the trip himself?
"What, you're not even willing to do this?" Giant Axe chuckled. "Or perhaps I have an even simpler way: the five of us can work together."
How about we annihilate all the living beings inside the Star Tower, and then resurrect our own kind afterwards?
"—You really are heartless, Giant Axe," said the silver-white snake head. "Even my demon race wouldn't make such a cruel suggestion."
"They won't do this, they won't do that."
Giant Axe suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Or are you just stalling for time, secretly enslaving my clan's powerful warriors?"
A huge axe suddenly appeared in his hand: "Since you're dragging your feet, let's get started."
"Why so agitated, Great Axe?" the Zerg Queen said gently. "We have no intention of enslaving your people. A bunch of kings are not worthy of occupying precious enslavement slots."
"As long as you didn't come for Chen Yuan, I'll gladly hand over those human kings to you."
"Alright." Giant Axe flipped his hand and put his weapon away, saying indifferently, "I don't care about Chen Yuan, just leave the rest to me."
"....good."
After a brief discussion, the four strongest individuals finally agreed to the request, and in their presence, the human kings within the Star Tower were selected.
After a thorough search by the strongest members, it was discovered that Chen Yuan was indeed not inside, so they had no choice but to hand him over to the giant axe.
"Alright, you guys have fun, I won't bother you anymore." After taking the human king-level expert, Giant Axe grinned and then disappeared.
"—Judging from his expression, is Chen Yuan really not here? Or has the other side already succeeded?"
The progenitor of machinery was still somewhat uneasy.
"It shouldn't be." The Zerg Queen shook her head slightly. "Giant Axe's expression—is a bit too confident, as if he's certain that the few of us can't do anything to this Star Tower."
She paused, then continued, "In fact, we were indeed unable to move this treasure."
"This is really strange." The silver-white snake head said helplessly, "We have all kinds of supreme treasures, but we have never seen one so powerful. Even the four of us working together cannot move it even slightly."
"The Star Tower must have been influenced by a special opportunity in the Cosmic Sea, making its quality superior to ordinary supreme treasures."
"At the very least, it's definitely stronger than my 'Queen's Palace.'"
The Zerg Queen shook her head and said, "In addition, the strength we can exert in the primordial universe is limited, so it's not surprising that we can't shake this treasure. This must be the reason for the giant axe's confidence."
"So what do we do now?" the serrated beast Zhen Yaozu retorted. "Are we just going to stay here and guard this place forever?"
"The key issue now is to confirm whether Chen Yuan is inside the Star Tower."
The Zerg Queen said, "As long as Chen Yuan is inside, he will definitely control the Star Tower in the future. However, Chen Yuan still needs to slowly master the secret runes of the treasure, so the power of his initial activation is not strong."
"When that time comes, it will be our chance to make a move. We may be able to kill Chen Yuan or seize this treasure."
"What if he's not here?" Zhen Yaozu asked again.
"That's even simpler. We just need to send an avatar to seal off this place," the Zerg Queen said calmly. "As long as the Star Tower is sealed off, Chen Yuan will be unable to enter the tower and control this supreme treasure."
"Even if the enemy risks breaking through the blockade, it will still be our opportunity to kill them."
"That makes sense," said the Mechanical Ancestor. "Then the problem now is how to confirm the situation inside the Star Tower. We need to know if Chen Yuan is inside."
"This requires Emperor Yan's help," the Zerg Queen said, glancing at the silent Emperor Yan. "As a disciple of the Mountain-Sitting Guest, you must have a way to enter the Star Tower, right?"
"I do have a way in." After a moment of silence, Emperor Yan finally nodded, then continued, "But only I can go in."
"Because my access was granted by the teacher, I can only enter myself, but I can't bring others in."
"Emperor Yan, I believe you," the Zerg Queen said gently. "Then I'll trouble you to make a trip for us and check if anyone is inside the Star Tower."
"If you help with this, you will gain the friendship of the Zerg."
The three progenitors standing nearby nodded in agreement, saying, "We, the demon race/mechanical race, are also included."
Although Emperor Yan knew that so-called friendship was all nonsense, he was still very curious about the situation inside the Star Tower. Was anyone inside? Would his teacher be inside?
With this in mind, he nodded and said, "Then I'll go in and take a look."
