Primal Chaos City, Treasure Vault of the Race.
Ender stood before a massive stone disk, gazing slightly upwards at the list on the light screen.
"Weapons and Soul-type Arcana treasures, I already have two Arcana treasures, so I don't need to exchange for these two types."
He muttered, "What I need are armor-type, Domain-type, and flying palace-type Arcana treasures."
"Huge Axe Creator gifted 130 Arcana Treasure Points, and my teacher gifted 50 Arcana Treasure Points, totaling 180 Arcana Treasure Points."
"Additionally, I can offer the ordinary Arcana treasure Crimson Armor, another ordinary Arcana treasure armor, and numerous Heavy Treasures to the Race, which should yield approximately 7-9 Arcana Treasure Points."
"Top-tier Arcana treasure, armor-type."
As Ender spoke, the exchange list on the light screen changed.
The cheapest top-tier Arcana treasure armor was 100 Arcana Treasure Points, while the most expensive was 420 Arcana Treasure Points.
"High-grade Arcana treasure, flying palace-type."
The exchange list on the light screen changed again.
The cheapest high-grade flying palace-type Arcana treasure was 204 Arcana Treasure Points, while the most expensive was 870 Arcana Treasure Points.
High-grade flying palace-type Arcana treasures have extremely strong defenses, with their material equivalent to top-tier Arcana treasure armor!
Even the cheapest one was sufficient to withstand the physical attacks of a fourth or fifth-Rank Universe Master for a considerable period, giving the holder more time to await rescue.
However, the exchange price was very expensive; even the cheapest one could be exchanged for two top-tier Arcana treasure armors.
"Flying palace-type Arcana treasures are too expensive…"
Ender looked at the exchange list on the light screen and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
According to his previous thoughts, if the exchange price for a high-grade flying palace-type Arcana treasure wasn't too high, he could offer the Crimson Gold Void Palace to the Race in exchange for one.
Then he would exchange for a top-tier Arcana treasure armor, and the Domain-type Arcana treasure could be temporarily put off.
But the exchange price for high-grade flying palace-type Arcana treasures was too high, making him abandon the idea of exchanging for one.
The reason he abandoned this idea was that in his mind, the priority of exchanging for a top-tier Arcana treasure armor was higher than exchanging for a high-grade flying palace Arcana treasure.
In terms of flying and self-preservation, a high-grade flying palace Arcana treasure was indeed more powerful, but for direct combat, a top-tier Arcana treasure armor was better.
For example, an ordinary Universe Overlord with a small Immortal Energy body and no high-grade Arcana treasure armor would be annihilated in two or three moves when facing a Top-tier Universe Overlord burning his Immortal Energy.
But if he had a high-grade Arcana treasure armor for protection, he would have the capital to directly fight a Top-tier Universe Overlord!
Of course, this refers to brief direct combat; if there was no assistance, falling was only a matter of time.
This shows the role of high-Rank Arcana treasure armor in direct combat.
Especially for Ender, the enemies he needed to face were not only Top-tier Universe Overlords but also Universe Masters from the three races who could attack at any time.
With a top-tier Arcana treasure armor for protection, even if he was ambushed by a Universe Master, his Immortal Energy loss would be much smaller.
But if he didn't exchange for a top-tier Arcana treasure armor, relying solely on high-grade Arcana treasure armor for defense, he would be virtually defenseless against a Universe Master's physical attacks.
After all, the upper limit of attack weakening for high-grade Arcana treasure armor meant it would be very difficult to withstand attack power from a third-Rank Universe Master or higher.
"It seems I can only continue to use the Crimson Gold Void Palace." Ender sighed softly.
The Crimson Gold Void Palace was a top-grade ordinary Arcana treasure, with its material equivalent to a top-grade high-grade Arcana treasure armor; temporarily defending against a third-Rank Universe Master's attack was not a problem.
But when facing the physical attacks of a fourth or fifth-Rank Universe Master, its defense was clearly insufficient; it could probably only withstand one or two moves from the latter.
Switching the exchange list back to top-tier Arcana treasure armor, Ender carefully studied the armor information on the light screen.
Due to the limited number of top-tier Arcana treasure armors in the Treasure Vault of the Race, he didn't have many options with the Arcana Treasure Points he possessed.
Not long after.
Ender took a liking to an armor called Profound Silver Armor, with an exchange price of 135 Arcana Treasure Points.
Rumble…
The stone disk split open, and a silver armor slowly floated up, then flew to Ender's front.
The silver armor had a lifelike beast head carved on its chest, with clearly visible fur and scales, in an enraged roaring posture, exuding a fierce aura.
Ender permeated the silver armor with his Immortal Energy, imprinting his mark.
After refining the Profound Silver Armor, he switched the exchange list on the light screen to ordinary Arcana treasure Domain-type.
Currently, the exchange price for ordinary Domain-type Arcana treasures ranged from 16 to 80 Arcana Treasure Points.
"After exchanging for the Profound Silver Armor, I have 45 Arcana Treasure Points left, which, combined with the Crimson Armor, allows me to use 50 Arcana Treasure Points."
Ender carefully examined the Domain type Arcana Treasures on the exchange list; what he needed was a Domain type Arcana Treasure with wood and Space Law attributes.
Now that he had fully comprehended the complete Space Law and become a Universe Venerable, he could unleash the full power of a Space Law attribute Domain type Arcana Treasure.
Soon, he found a Domain type Arcana Treasure suitable for the wood attribute.
"Azure Jade Thousand Stars… 53 Arcana Treasure Points?"
Ender frowned slightly; this price was a bit higher than his budget, "View details."
The light screen in mid-air suddenly changed, and a faint green light rose.
Then, a thousand azure stars shimmered within the faint green light; although the two colors were similar, the thousand stars were very dazzling, and the largest among them seemed like a monarch, commanding the other stars!
The thousand stars varied in size; nine hundred stars were noticeably smaller, ninety were slightly larger, and nine were a bit bigger still.
The last one was the monarch-like star, and also the core of the entire Domain type Arcana Treasure!
"Azure Jade Thousand Stars, a Domain-type and Spirit Weapon-type Arcana treasure, possesses extremely strong suppression and binding capabilities. If the enemy is weak, it can even directly annihilate the opponent using the Azure Jade Thousand Stars."
A gentle voice sounded, "The Azure Jade Thousand Stars is composed of nine hundred ordinary Heavy Treasures, ninety high-grade Heavy Treasures, nine top-tier Heavy Treasures, and one ordinary Arcana treasure, the Azure Jade Star. The thousand Azure Jade Stars can also be used as Spirit Weapons to attack enemies."
"Because it is a wood attribute Domain-type and Spirit Weapon-type Arcana treasure, only powerhouses who have become Immortal in the Law of Wood can use it…"
Just by reading the description, Ender was firmly attracted to the Azure Jade Thousand Stars; it was an Arcana treasure very suitable for the Gu Yu Ancient Tree Branch!
The Gu Yu Ancient Tree is a plant life-form, and due to its difficulty in movement, it cannot use close-combat weapons.
The Azure Jade Thousand Stars is a Domain-type Arcana treasure that can be superimposed with the innate secret technique Gu Yu Cage, making the suppression and binding effects even more formidable.
Moreover, it is also a Spirit Weapon-type Arcana treasure, allowing for long-range attacks and suppression without close combat, making it seem perfectly suited for the Gu Yu Ancient Tree.
"53 Arcana Treasure Points… I'll exchange for it!"
Ender took out the Crimson Armor, erased the life imprint within it, and placed it on the stone disk.
Green threads of light rose from the countless patterns on the stone disk, meticulously scanning the crimson armor.
"Crimson Armor, an armor-type Arcana treasure. Offering it to the Race can yield 5.8 Arcana Treasure Points, Ender, are you willing to offer this treasure to the Race?"
"I am."
Ender replied.
After the Crimson Armor was collected by the stone disk, he took out another ordinary Arcana treasure armor and placed it on top.
"Armor-type Arcana treasure, offering it to the Race can yield 1 Arcana Treasure Point…"
"I am."
Ender spoke, then one by one placed Heavy Treasures such as the Sacred Forest Domain onto the stone disk, offering them to the Race in exchange for Heavy Treasure Points.
Ultimately.
When he had exchanged all the top-tier Heavy Treasures and high-grade Heavy Treasures on him for Heavy Treasure Points, plus his original 0.5 Arcana Treasure Points, he finally gathered 53 Arcana Treasure Points.
"Azure Jade Thousand Stars, requires 53 Arcana Treasure Points for exchange, Ender, do you wish to exchange?"
Having finally gathered enough Arcana Treasure Points, Ender answered without hesitation: "Exchange."
Rumble…
The stone disk slowly split open, and a thousand azure jade beads, like a flowing river, shimmered with enchanting, hazy light as they flew over.
Ender permeated the thousand azure jade beads with his Immortal Energy, imprinting his life mark one by one.
Each of these thousand azure jade beads was only the size of a glass bead, emitting a hazy light, with complex secret patterns on their surface, appearing quite extraordinary.
"Azure Jade Thousand Stars, in my hands." Ender smiled.
Although the human main body had offered all its ordinary Arcana treasures and Heavy Treasures to the Race in exchange for this Domain-type and Spirit Weapon-type ordinary Arcana treasure, he felt it was well worth it.
"The Gu Yu Ancient Tree Branch now has a weapon, but it lacks Matching attack secret techniques and defensive means…"
Ender sighed inwardly, "I'm still a bit poor!"
The branch he carried with him only had top-tier Heavy Treasure armor and high-grade Soul Heavy Treasure for protection, making it difficult to intervene in Top-tier Universe Overlord-level battles.
Without high-quality treasures for protection to weaken physical and Soul attacks, no matter how vast the Gu Yu Ancient Tree Branch's Immortal Energy body was, it would just be a target.
It would have to rely on the self-destruction of its massive Immortal Energy body to pose a threat to Top-tier Universe Overlords and Universe Masters.
After completing the treasure exchange, Ender left the Treasure Vault of the Race and walked towards the outside of the City Lord's Mansion.
...
On the main road outside the City Lord's Mansion.
Zhiton Royce walked quickly, preparing to Cultivate the Primal Chaos Tablet, while also pondering his recent cultivation confusion.
His talent was very limited; although he had Mullie, a Marquis-level Immortal, as a mentor, he only entered the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm at the Domain Master, and it was estimated that it would be difficult for him to advance further into the Absolute Beginning Secret Realm in the future.
Upon arriving in front of the City Lord's Mansion, Zhiton finally composed himself, to avoid bumping into others.
"Hmm… That is!"
As soon as he entered the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Zhiton's heart trembled.
Because he saw the person walking towards him was none other than the Eleventh Ancestor who presided over his Genius Battle—Venerable Void River!
"Venerable."
"Venerable."
One after another, Genius Immortal saw Ender, respectfully bowing and making way.
"Eleventh Ancestor."
Seeing this, Zhiton quickly moved aside, while respectfully bowing.
"It's you, the little fellow from Fourth Sister's Family."
Ender stopped, looked down at the respectful Zhiton, and smiled, "Come to Cultivate the Primal Chaos Tablet?"
"Yes."
Zhiton replied respectfully.
"I remember, you are Mullie's Disciple?" Ender asked.
"Yes."
Zhiton nodded respectfully.
"Work hard, strive to become the first Immortal in your lineage."
Ender nodded slightly, then left.
"Yes."
Zhiton was filled with trepidation, quickly saying, "Farewell, Eleventh Ancestor."
After Ender had walked far away, Zhiton finally stood up, and couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
Facing the Family's legendary Eleventh Ancestor, who was also an extremely powerful Venerable Void River among Universe Venerables, he felt immense pressure.
Not only Zhiton, but other Genius Immortal around also felt an incredibly terrifying Immortal Energy pressure.
It was as if, if Ender wished, even just by Immortal Energy pressure, he could annihilate most of them!
Seeing the Eleventh Ancestor walk away, Zhiton quickly headed towards the Primal Chaos Tablet, his heart immensely excited.
"I finally met the Eleventh Ancestor, although not in the Family, it's better than meeting him during the Genius Battle."
He excitedly thought, "More importantly, the Eleventh Ancestor remembers me!"
To be remembered by the Eleventh Ancestor, who was even greater than a Universe Venerable, Zhiton felt immense joy and even more immense honor!
On the other side, after Zhiton left, some Genius Immortal began to discuss.
"That guy just now, called that great existence like a Universe Venerable the Eleventh Ancestor?"
"You heard correctly, he did call him the Eleventh Ancestor. He's probably a junior of that Universe Venerable."
"I'm so envious. If I had a Universe Venerable elder, my Cultivation resources would be ten or even a hundred times what they are now!"
"That Universe Venerable's pressure was too strong, as if just by his pressure, he could annihilate me…"
...
When Ender, aboard a precious G-level metal spaceship that had been built for a long time, emerged from the Primal Universe passage and returned to the Thousand Treasure River Territory for secluded Cultivation.
King Aurora and King Blazing Sand had already arrived at the Extraterritorial Battlefield.
"King Blazing Sand."
King Aurora inquired, "I've already found the coordinates of a Flame God Race Limit Stage King-Level Immortal through a Hong Alliance ally. Should we go directly?"
"A Flame God Race Limit Stage King-Level Immortal should have golden armor on him. Hunting him with just the two of us would be very difficult…"
King Blazing Sand said in a deep voice, "Master entrusted us with the task of acquiring the Flame God Race Armor; it is a sign of his trust in us, and we must not disappoint him.
"Without absolute certainty, it's best not to act rashly, to avoid alerting the enemy."
"Since that's the case, let's first go capture Flame God Race World Masters and ordinary Immortal."
King Aurora did not object, but instead asked, "Can I invite a few more people to participate?
"Don't worry, I won't expose our mission objective. I'll invite Pinnacle Undefeated Immortal under the guise of personal vendetta."
King Blazing Sand nodded, "You can, as long as it can serve Master's mission and doesn't expose our mission objective."
"With you, King Blazing Sand, there, whether it's exposed or not makes little difference."
King Aurora muttered inwardly, "The fact that you are Venerable Void River's Soul Puppet has long spread throughout the Universe; anyone with access to information would know you represent Venerable Void River."
"Alright, then I'll invite a Pinnacle Undefeated Immortal over now."
Although he muttered inwardly, King Aurora still deferred to King Blazing Sand, and his consciousness contacted a Pinnacle Undefeated Immortal through the Virtual Universe.
Soon.
King Aurora spoke again, "The person has been contacted, but it will take some time for him to travel from the Universe Secret Realm."
Hearing this, King Blazing Sand nodded slightly, "While we wait, let's go capture Flame God Race World Masters and ordinary Immortal first."
"Okay."
King Aurora nodded, and then the two went to another battlefield.
They had already locked onto an elite squad of Flame God Race World Masters, which contained not only World Masters but also ordinary Immortal, just enough to complete the capture mission.
...
A few days later.
Inside the Star Tower.
Because the Sealed Star had appeared not long ago, the entire Star Tower had not yet recovered from the fierce battle.
"Damn it! Damn it!!"
King Raging Waves, clad in golden armor, continuously attacked the Puppets within the surrounding Star Tower, venting his inner rage.
In the recent struggle for the Sealed Star, he almost managed to seize the Sealed Star by relying on the defensive capabilities of his King armor.
Unfortunately, he was targeted by powerhouses from the Human faction and missed the best opportunity, allowing a Pinnacle Undefeated from the Demon race to snatch it away instead.
Soon.
Under the enraged King Raging Waves's attacks, all the surrounding Star Tower Puppets were damaged, but his expression was extremely grim!
"King Blazing Sand… Venerable Void River's Soul Puppet!"
