Simulation of the Heavens: Starting from the Age of Desolation

Chapter 95 The Universe-Renowned Trading Secrets
"The Lord of Annihilation truly lives up to his reputation as a top-tier universe lord. Even with my seven clones attacking simultaneously, I could barely suppress him." Zhou Yu watched the Lord of Annihilation leave without doing anything further.

For a universe master like the Lord of Annihilation, whose accumulation is extremely profound and who has reached the top in every aspect, it is already quite good to be able to suppress him briefly. There is absolutely no possibility of keeping him alive, not even the strongest in the universe can do it.

Without much thought, Zhou Yu's seven star clones quickly returned to the Nine Dragons Palace. The Nine Dragons Palace accelerated slightly and entered the dark universe, disappearing into the starry sky.

However, although Zhou Yu has left, the storm caused by everything that happened in the Black Prison Abyss has only just begun.

The deaths of numerous cosmic venerables from various forces, especially nearly a hundred cosmic overlords, could not have happened quietly.

As many powerful figures are resurrected, the truth gradually comes to light.

All factions quickly learned that the human race's "Domain Lord" was merely bait, and that he was always accompanied by a Lord of the Universe, and not just one.

However, it is difficult to reconstruct the full picture from the resurrected Cosmic Venerable alone, so many Cosmic Lords from various forces went to the Black Prison Abyss to reverse time and space to investigate.

Even the demon race, after the Lord of Annihilation was defeated, sent people into the Black Prison Abyss to investigate. They clearly realized that something else must have happened after the many cosmic venerables and cosmic overlords were killed.

"The golden-armored cosmic ruler who appeared at the beginning was actually the Lord of the Dove Cultivation?"

"The Lord of the Dove Cultivation actually possesses such a treasure!"

"Wait, judging from the divine power aura, the universe lord who has been hiding in that palace treasure is clearly that 'Domain Venerable'. He has actually become the universe lord?"

"Hiss, the Lord of Jiuxiu was directly killed? What a terrifying Seven Star Lord!"

"."

As the rulers of the universe reversed time to see everything and sent the message back, many forces in the universe were quickly shocked.

"The Lord of the Seven Stars, can he unleash such power with just one clone? His clone's treasures and divine body are not even the most top-tier. Could it be that he has created the strongest secret technique for fusion with the Lord of the Universe? Moreover, ordinary secret techniques cannot achieve this level. Only a secret technique that is extremely adept at killing can have such an effect."

"According to the information we found in the Seven Star Secret Realm, the Seven Star Lord hasn't made a move since breaking through to the Universe Venerable level. Not only did he quietly become the Universe Lord, but his secret techniques are also this powerful?"

"Hongmeng really got lucky, managing to easily recruit such a top expert."

"."

While many cosmic forces were shocked, they also felt extremely envious of Hongmeng's good luck.

It's truly outrageous that such a top-tier existence in the universe could be so easily recruited.

In particular, the cosmic lords who went to explore the Black Prison Abyss quickly discovered signs of battle outside the Black Prison Abyss. They also reversed time and space to take a look, and what they saw shocked them.

It turns out that outside the Black Prison Abyss, the Seven Star Lords had already fought against the Demon Clan's Lord of Annihilation.

The opponent's seven clones each unleashed incredibly terrifying power, even surpassing the Lord of Annihilation.

The news was spreading at an incredible speed.

Given the extraordinary abilities of the "Seven Star Lord," the annihilation of some cosmic overlords and cosmic venerables is nothing.

Even Zhou Yu's human avatar, who became a universe master in a very short time, received less attention. After all, there are many universe masters, but only a few of the most powerful ones.

. . .

Initial universe, Chaos City.

Zhou Yu's human avatar arrived at the residence of the Chaos City Lord. At this moment, he was wearing black armor and had a pair of jet-black wings on his back, which he deliberately displayed.

"Zhou Yu, you've come at the right time. I have some questions for you," the Chaos City Lord said as soon as he saw Zhou Yu.

"Teacher, are you going to talk about the Lord of the Seven Stars?" Zhou Yu asked.

The Lord of Chaos nodded and said with emotion, "You and the Lord of the Seven Stars are well-known throughout the universe, especially the Lord of the Seven Stars. His strength is too heaven-defying. Back then, we tried to win him over only because we thought he was strong enough to possess special life forms and had a promising future, so we went to such lengths. But now it seems that we won over the Lord of the Seven Stars by only spending one top-level domain treasure. We really got a great deal."

“The Lord of the Seven Stars is also of human origin. His choice to join the Hong Alliance may also have emotional reasons,” Zhou Yu said.

Of course, the most crucial reason is that his seven star clones a thousand years ago were far from having this level of strength; all of his clones combined were only at the second-tier universe master level.

“Yes, there might be an emotional element involved.” The Chaos City Lord’s eyes lit up, and he quickly followed up with, “You seem to get along quite well with the Seven Star Lord?”

"It's alright," Zhou Yu said with a smile. "We get along well and hit it off immediately."

"This is a good thing. It seems that my decision to have you contact the Seven Star Lord was a very wise one." The Chaos City Lord sighed. He naturally knew that such top experts had very little need for external things. If Zhou Yu, a Universe Lord, became friends with the Seven Star Lord, many things would be much more convenient.

"Teacher, there's something I want to tell you about the Lord of the Seven Stars," Zhou Yu suddenly said.
"The Seven Stars Lord was able to unleash such great power not because his secret techniques had reached your level, but because he relied on a special secret technique."

"What? A special secret technique?" The Chaos City Lord was stunned.

"The Lord of the Seven Stars told me it was a secret technique that could greatly accelerate the burning of divine power," Zhou Yu said.
"This secret technique, by burning a massive amount of divine power, can unleash power far stronger than normal burning of divine power. The Seven Star Lord is not that powerful on his own; only after using this secret technique can his strength suddenly increase to a higher level."

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Chaos City fell silent and remained speechless for a long time.

"Are you sure?" the Chaos City Lord suddenly asked.

"Hmm, it doesn't look fake to me," Zhou Yu nodded.

"Is it a secret innate technique?" the Chaos City Lord asked again.

"The Lord of the Seven Stars told me with certainty that it was a secret technique," Zhou Yu added.

"Let's go see the founder of the Giant Axe," the Chaos City Lord decided immediately.

The Lord of Chaos City naturally knew that if such a secret technique truly existed, capable of elevating a powerful individual's strength by one level, its value would be immeasurable.

Virtual universe, inside the Great Ax Temple.

Swish!Swish!Swish!
Three figures appeared here.

"Chaos, Realm, why are you in such a hurry to find me?"

The Giant Axe Founder smiled as he looked at the two of them. He was in a very good mood because of the news about the Seven Star Lord. It had been a long time since anything had made him so happy.

"Giant Axe, Zhou Yu just told me something," the Chaos City Lord quickly told the Giant Axe Founder.

Upon hearing this, the founder of the giant axe's expression changed drastically.

"Divine Power Burning Secret Technique? Strength increased by one level?" The Giant Axe Founder felt incredulous.

According to Zhou Yu's description, this secret technique increases strength by accelerating the burning of divine power. Could it also be useful to him?

However, the founder of the giant axe was no ordinary person after all, and he quickly calmed down.

"Domain Realm, since the Lord of the Seven Stars deliberately told you this information, it means that his secret technique is not absolutely confidential?" The Founder of the Giant Axe asked Zhou Yu.

"The Lord of the Seven Stars said that this secret technique can indeed be passed on, but it requires a treasure in exchange," Zhou Yu said.

"What treasure does he want?" the founder of the giant axe asked.

"I don't know, but my divine avatar is still with him. If you're interested, Giant Axe Founder, I can ask him," Zhou Yu said.

“Ask away,” the founder of the giant axe said immediately.

soon--

Zhou Yu then said, "A supreme treasure of the palace type."

Upon hearing this, both the Giant Axe Founder and the Chaos City Lord were helpless. A supreme treasure? The human race simply doesn't have one!

Needless to say, it has to be a palace-type building.

However, both the founder of the giant axe and the Lord of Chaos City understood that the Lord of the Seven Stars was not asking for an exorbitant amount. If the effect of his secret technique was really that heaven-defying, then compared with the supreme treasure, its only drawback was that it consumed more divine power.

However, the most powerful treasures can only be used by one person, while secret techniques can be passed on.

That would boost the overall strength of the human race.

“I don’t possess the most powerful and precious treasures, but I can exchange them for other treasures of equal value,” said the Giant Axe Founder.
"However, the premise is that the authenticity of this secret technique must be confirmed."

"Then you, the founder of the Giant Axe, will have to personally go and talk to the Lord of the Seven Stars." Zhou Yu didn't say anything more.

"Yes, I'm already on my way to the Seven Star Secret Realm." The Giant Axe Founder nodded. Such an important matter indeed required his personal attention.

"Giant Axe, this secret technique is too complex. Even if it's true, it's not good to spread it out immediately," the Chaos City Lord cautioned.

"I know."

The founder of the giant axe nodded and said, "If this secret technique can really enhance my strength, then I can go to some places deep in the cosmic sea. Once I obtain another supreme treasure, I will have nothing to fear." Upon hearing this, a hint of anticipation appeared on the face of the Chaos City Lord.

If that day ever comes, then humanity may one day regain the glory it enjoyed before its original teacher was suppressed.

Of course, all of this is predicated on the fact that the secret technique must be genuine, and that the Lord of the Seven Stars must be truly willing to exchange it.

. . .

Chaos City, inside the City Lord's Mansion.

"I hope it will succeed, then our human race will probably usher in a new era." The Chaos City Lord was filled with excitement at this moment.

“Teacher, since the Lord of the Seven Stars dared to say it, it’s most likely true, and he does indeed have the intention to make an exchange,” Zhou Yu said.
“My divine power is over there; it can also help put in a good word.”

"Okay, I'm counting on you!"

The Lord of Chaos City nodded. Zhou Yu had just told him that he and the Lord of the Seven Stars hit it off immediately, so his advice must have been effective.

Time passed, and Zhou Yu remained with the Lord of Chaos City.

Soon, Zhou Yu said, "Teacher, the Seven Star Lord gave a part of that secret technique to the creator of the Giant Axe, so we can confirm that the secret technique is real."

"Oh?" The Chaos City Lord's eyes lit up.

The secret technique is real, and this step is the most important. Once this is confirmed, everything else will be easier.

Although the human race does not possess the most powerful treasures, it still has some resources. In any case, it must obtain this secret technique.

"The terms are agreed upon. The founder of the Giant Axe will contribute one peak domain treasure, one peak palace treasure, one peak soul treasure, three peak attack treasures, and three peak treasure armors. In addition, he will help the Lord of the Seven Stars search for treasures that can enhance the genetic level of the divine body by ten thousand times," Zhou Yu quickly added.

"These conditions are not harsh," the Chaos City Lord understood.

Many treasures are not normally available for exchange with the Lords of the Universe, but they are kept in the race's reserves. These treasures will only be taken out at critical moments, and now is that critical moment!

As for the enhancement of the divine body?

Although the human race cannot currently provide suitable treasures, they can find some with some effort.

"Zhou Yu, Giant Axe said that thanks to your mediation this time, you have made a great contribution," the Chaos City Lord said with a smile.

"I'll just say a few words. The main thing is that the Lord of the Seven Stars is willing to make the exchange; otherwise, he could have easily gone to trade with the strongest beings in other universes," Zhou Yu said.

"Yes, that's the most valuable thing," the Chaos City Lord sighed.

"Even in the Cosmic Sea, I have never heard of such a heaven-defying secret technique. Many races and groups in the Cosmic Sea are not lacking in supreme treasures."

Zhou Yu spoke with the Lord of Chaos City for a while, when suddenly, the Lord of Chaos City said:

"By the way, Zhou Yu, we've been so focused on the Seven Stars Lord, but now that you've become the Universe Lord, shouldn't you announce it now?"

“Now that the whole universe knows, there’s no point in keeping it a secret from our own race.” Zhou Yu nodded naturally.

"You can be considered a legend. Although our human race has had peerless geniuses who became masters of the universe in a very short time in the past, none of them were as fast as you," the Chaos City Lord remarked.

Zhou Yu nodded upon hearing this, but although his speed in becoming the Lord of the Universe was exaggerated, it was not unbelievable.

After all, his human avatar had remained at the Realm Lord stage for tens of thousands of years in the simulation.

"What are your plans after this is made public?" the Chaos City Lord asked again.

"Let's accumulate more experience for a while longer," Zhou Yu said without hesitation.

The human race's cosmic rulers either venture into the cosmic ocean or reside in important locations within their race.

Zhou Yu's human avatar would definitely not go to the Cosmic Sea easily, since his human avatar's ability to protect itself is not strong, and if it dies, it's truly dead.

"The Lord of the Seven Stars was able to kill the Lord of Jiuxiu with your help. What level has your secret technique reached?" the Chaos City Lord asked.

"It's probably the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe," Zhou Yu said.

"Is this really the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe? You didn't use any treasures?" the Chaos City Lord inquired.

"No." Zhou Yu naturally shook his head.

"How long have you been the Lord of the Universe? You haven't even undergone any trials, yet you've already created the strongest secret technique for the Lord of the Universe." The Chaos City Lord was shocked.

He suddenly realized that Zhou Yu might also be the one who could truly change the human race.

He created the strongest secret technique of the universe master in a very short time. It is almost certain that he will reach his level in the future, and he also has a great chance of becoming the strongest in the universe.

“I have an avatar that has been in the Primal Secret Realm all along. Your strength is not weak now either. How about you help me guard the Primal Secret Realm for a while?” the Chaos City Lord asked.

"it is good."

Zhou Yu thought about it and then agreed.

He plans to spend some more time reflecting, and going to the primeval secret realm would be a suitable option.

Zhou Yu chatted with the Lord of Chaos City for a while longer, and soon the two received a message from the founder of the Giant Axe.

"Haha, the exchange was successful."

In the virtual universe's Giant Axe Temple, the Giant Axe Founder laughed, "I have obtained the follow-up part of that secret technique. I am now certain that this secret technique will definitely enhance my strength. I will immediately set off for the Cosmic Sea, Chaos, and the Primordial Universe. I'm counting on you."

"Don't worry." The Lord of Chaos City nodded.

"I promised the Lord of the Seven Stars that this secret technique would only be passed down within the human race," the Founder of the Giant Axe added.

"But it's not appropriate to announce it publicly within the community right now."

"Chaos, I will pass on this secret technique to you, so that if I encounter any accidents in the cosmic sea, this secret technique will not be lost."

The Lord of Chaos City nodded upon hearing this.

"Giant Axe, although your strength has increased, you still need to be careful," the Chaos City Lord said.

"Haha, of course, I won't act rashly." The founder of the giant axe laughed, then looked at Zhou Yu.

"Domain Realm, this successful transaction is largely thanks to your persuasion of the Seven Star Lord. I will also pass on this secret technique to you," said the Giant Axe Founder.
"But you should not use this secret technique for a while."

“Okay.” Zhou Yu naturally nodded in agreement.

This secret technique was not something his human clone would easily use.

The Divine Power Burning Secret Technique is good, but it consumes too much divine power. Without a massive main body like the Seven Star Vine, his human clone simply cannot withstand it.

The Giant Axe Founder was indeed decisive. After giving instructions to the Chaos City Lord, his main body headed directly towards the Cosmic Sea.

Inside Chaos City, Zhou Yu's human avatar bid farewell to the City Lord and prepared to leave.

But at that moment, the Lord of Chaos City seemed to have noticed something, and he asked, "Zhou Yu, is that winged treasure behind you just an ordinary supreme treasure? Can it still be of any help to you?"

Previously, the Chaos City Lord's attention was focused on the transaction with the Seven Star Lord and the revelation of Zhou Yu's identity, and he didn't pay much attention to other things.

But by this time, many things had come to a conclusion, and the Lord of Chaos City suddenly realized the problem.

The aura emanating from this winged treasure is quite ordinary; it should just be an ordinary treasure. Ordinary treasures are generally only used by cosmic overlords, and would not be of much use to a cosmic lord.

The key point is that the Chaos City Lord felt that these wings looked somewhat familiar.

“Teacher, these wings are the treasure of Venerable Tianyang, the cosmic overlord of the Mechanical Race. I quite like this treasure,” Zhou Yu said, secretly sighing to himself.

When he first came to see the Lord of Chaos City, he deliberately wore the wings and made sure to let his aura emanate from them, which finally caught the Lord of Chaos City's attention.

The key point is, if the Lord of Chaos City doesn't bring it up himself, he can't just ask for it directly, can he?
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Chaos City nodded.

"It's rare that you like it." The Chaos City Lord smiled. "I have a similar treasure, and I'll have someone send it to you later. You might like it too."

"Thank you very much, teacher," Zhou Yu said with a smile.

"Just an ordinary treasure." The Chaos City Lord naturally didn't care.

P.S.: That's all for today, I'll add more later.
