Man is devouring, waves are traveling through the universe

Chapter 186: Confirming the Candidates, an Opportunity to Prove Oneself

"The three candidates vying for the Northern Nether Palace this time."

"First, you need to be able to survive, and it's best to have clones; second, you can't be too weak, otherwise it's pointless."

The Giant Axe Founder surveyed the human race of universe lords and spoke with great composure.

"I'll be the first choice!"

"My main battle clone has already returned from the cosmic sea and should be able to make it in time."

The Lord of Chaos City said with a smile.

The other cosmic lords also nodded.

The Lord of Chaos City has three avatars: one permanently resides in the initial universe, one resides in the primordial secret realm, and the other roams the cosmic sea.

Moreover, the Lord of Chaos City is strong enough, so no one objects to him taking a spot.

"I think I can give the second choice a try!"

A glint flashed in Ye Xingkong's eyes as he spoke calmly.

"God Ax?"

All the lords of the universe were startled.

"Lord of the Divine Axe, do not act rashly. This battle for the Northern Nether Palace will be extremely dangerous. Even the Lord of the Universe may perish."

The Lord of False Gold frowned as he spoke.

“Divine Axe, your position is quite special, so you shouldn’t take this risk.”

Peng Gongzhi also shook his head.

"Yes!"

"Divine Axe, you haven't been cultivating for long enough, there's no need to rush!"

The human race's universe masters all shook their heads.

Some of them were indeed dissatisfied with Panwu's clone.

Even those universe lords who voted "agree" when making the decision may not truly approve of Panwu's clone; they were mostly just doing it out of respect for the original ancestor.

However, their dissatisfaction does not mean they have any opinion about Panwu's clone himself.

It's normal for these cosmic rulers of the human race to have some internal conflicts of interest, but they are generally united against external forces.

The Lord of the Divine Axe is indeed incredibly talented; he possesses the strength of a Universe Lord even though he is only a Universe Venerable.

However, in terms of strength, Panwu's clone is considered to be at the bottom among the nineteen universe lords of the human race.

"Everyone!"

Ye Xingkong's gaze sharpened, and he said with a smile, "I'm not saying this to show off or prove myself, but because I'm confident."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, the Ice Peak Lord sitting next to him couldn't help but glance at Ye Xingkong again.

"Divine Axe, is this true?"

Even the Lord of Darkness showed a rare look of surprise.

"There's no fine salt in the army, so don't exaggerate."

Peng Gongzhong had a smiling expression on his face.

"First, I am still a cosmic sovereign; even if I perish, I can be resurrected!"

"In this respect alone, he is comparable to the cosmic lord who possesses avatars."

Ye Xingkong said lightly.

"Yes, that's right!"

"Resurrecting a top-tier cosmic overlord costs about the same as condensing the body of a cosmic master god; the difference is negligible!"

The powerful figures, including the Lord of Qingdong, all nodded.

This is the advantage of being a top-tier cosmic overlord! In terms of strength, a top-tier cosmic overlord can rival a weaker cosmic lord, such as a first- or second-tier cosmic lord.

But they can be resurrected after they die!

In battle, the difference between a desperate fighting style and a steady fighting style is completely different!

"Secondly, with my current strength, I estimate that I would be considered quite powerful among third-tier universe masters."

"Back on the original planet, I suppressed the Lord of Sirius and killed Venerable Tianhua. At that time, I didn't have any powerful treasures on me."

"But things are different now. With the top-tier treasure giant axe and the pinnacle treasure armor, our strength is naturally incomparable to what it used to be."

Ye Xingkong slowly explained his reasons.

"The divine axe is right."

“Indeed, when fighting the Lord of Sirius, the Divine Axe had not yet revealed its identity, so it was naturally very poor, and even its giant axe was just a high-grade treasure giant axe.”

"So, does that mean I'm even weaker than the Lord of the Divine Axe?"

All the human universe lords nodded in agreement.

At first, they thought that even if Panwu's clone possessed the strength of a third-tier universe master, it wouldn't be anything special.

After all, among the nineteen universe lords of the human race, apart from a few who have just broken through, almost all of them have the strength of the third tier.

The combat power that Panwu's clone had previously displayed was only at the bottom among the third-order universe masters.

However, they overlooked the factor of the treasure!
A large part of the power of a cosmic ruler depends on the supreme treasures he possesses.

"In that case, the second candidate could be Divine Axe."

After a moment's thought, the Lord of Chaos City finally nodded.

After careful consideration, Ye Xingkong is indeed a more suitable candidate among the human race's universe masters.

Most importantly, he can be resurrected after death, so there's nothing to fear.

"Hmm, the second candidate is Divine Axe."

The founder of the giant axe nodded.

······
Black Dragon Mountain Starfield.

Ancient Origin Star.

Ye Xingkong's martial arts clone withdrew from the virtual universe, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

This meeting of the Giant Axe lasted for half a month, mainly to discuss the matter of vying for control of the Northern Nether Palace.

Of course, for an existence like the Lord of the Universe, half a month is just the time it takes to take a nap.

"The three contenders for the Northern Nether Palace have finally been determined to be me, the Lord of Chaos City, and the Lord of Qingdong."

Ye Xingkong pondered to himself.

The Lord of Qingdong, the helmsman of the Universe's Number One Bank, possesses the strength of a third-tier Universe Lord.

In terms of strength, the Lord of Qingdong is relatively ordinary, after all, almost all the human race's universe lords are at the third rank.

However, the lord of Qingdong has the advantage of being extremely good at preserving his life.

He has two clones: one is his human self, who is in charge of battle, and the other is a special life form called "Dongya Tree".

In the universe, all plant life forms share one characteristic: their divine bodies are extremely large.

The Eastern Cliff Tree was no exception. Although its divine body was not as vast as the World Tree, nor as heaven-defying as the Thousand Vine Star-Eating Grass, it was still nearly ten million kilometers tall.

With the Dongya Tree clone present, even if the main body of the Lord of Qingdong perishes, he can be resurrected very quickly.

"In this battle for the Northern Nether Palace, all the major powers in the universe will send their strongest warriors."

"Among these powerful individuals, there are probably some super strong individuals like the Chaos City Lord."

Ye Xingkong also felt some pressure.

Although his cultivation speed was extremely fast, he was still somewhat outmatched when facing the super strong beings in the universe.
