The Boat of Mausoleum's hatch opened, immediately drawing the attention of powerhouses from all forces in the Universe Ocean.
This was the first time the Boat of Mausoleum's hatch had opened since the candidates from various forces had perished. Perhaps they would now know which force had obtained the Legacy.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Four brilliant streams of light shot out from the hatch, then transformed into four human figures in the Void.
"This is..."
"Original Universe Human Race powerhouses."
"It's Void River Master, Peng Gong True God, Qing Dong True God, and the extremely mysterious Crimson Devil Master."
Powerhouses from all forces in the Universe Ocean immediately recognized their identities upon seeing the four figures.
The Original Universe Human Race had hogged the limelight in the competition for the Duan Dong He Inheritance, causing various forces in the Universe Ocean to extensively collect information on the Human Race from the Universe Masters of the Original Universe.
There was no need to mention Void River Master, Peng Gong True God, and Qing Dong True God; they were either already famous powerhouses or had displayed astonishing combat power, and all of them had participated in the siege of the Mechanical Race's Father God.
"Crimson Devil Master is also here?"
"That Crimson Devil Master is not simple. Tens of thousands of powerhouses in the entire Universe Ocean participated in the Duan Dong He Inheritance, and she broke through the second Bottleneck in the Rhino Emperor Game solution!"
"There are no records of her making a move, so it's difficult to judge her strength, but she has access to the Duan Dong River's basic Legacy, so she should at least have the combat power of a fifth-tier Universe Master."
Many powerhouses' gazes were fixed on the extremely mysterious Crimson Devil Master Bo Ya.
Because this Crimson Devil Master of the Original Universe Human Race had no combat records...
Too mysterious!
According to what the various forces in the Universe Ocean understood, Crimson Devil Master's official appearance was at the Hong Alliance's Hall Master meeting after the Human Race annexed the Mechanical Race's territory.
As Void River Master's Disciple and a powerhouse who broke through the second Bottleneck in the Rhino Emperor Game solution, powerhouses from all forces dared not underestimate her.
...
"It seems the Human Race has obtained the Legacy."
"Most likely, otherwise, the Human Race might not have been able to leave the Boat of Mausoleum safely."
"The Human Race's strength is considerable. Leaving aside Peng Gong True God and Qing Dong True God for now, just Void River Master alone possesses multiple Arcana treasures for protection. We alone cannot seize the Legacy."
"Then we wait. I don't believe other forces won't covet the Legacy!"
"That's what we'll do. If our Divine Eye Race seizes the Legacy, we will definitely not let go of the Thunder-Clad Demon God!"
The Divine Eye Race's Seventh True Master and Sixth True Master looked at Ender and the others from afar, communicating secretly via telepathy.
...
The Northern True Star Master of the East Emperor Holy Land Universe stood above the Blazing Ice Region, with over a dozen Universe Masters, all possessing fifth-tier combat power, standing behind him.
"Ancestor, it's most likely the Original Universe Human Race that obtained the Legacy. What should we do?" Northern True Star Master inquired through his Divine Power Avatar.
"Do nothing for now. First, see if other forces will make a move. If any other force acts first, you can follow and intervene."
East Emperor responded, "If no one dares to act, then wait... wait for the Human Race to return to the Original Universe, then you go contact the Human Race and say that our Eastern Emperor Holy Land wants to make a deal with the Human Race."
"Yes."
Northern True Star Master respectfully replied.
...
Outside the Boat of Mausoleum's hatch, not far away.
Ender, clad in silver battle armor, stood in the Void with his arms crossed, scanning the powerhouses from various forces.
"Teacher, I see that the various forces' arrivals are ill-intentioned; they seem to have the intention of seizing the Legacy," Bo Ya transmitted.
"Don't worry, Huge Axe Creator has also arrived."
Ender's expression was calm. "With our strength, even if they join forces, they can't stop us, nor would they dare to easily make a move."
"Haha, seven True Gods want to stop our Human Race? They overestimate themselves too much."
Peng Gong True God stroked his big beard and laughed. "Even if Huge Axe Creator doesn't come, they can't do anything."
Qing Dong True God, beside him, nodded slightly in agreement.
Having accessed the Duan Dong River's basic Legacy, both he and Peng Gong True God had made progress in their strength, which was far beyond what it was during the siege of the Mechanical Race's Father God.
It should be noted that during the siege of the Mechanical Race's Father God, the main combat power came from Huge Axe Creator and Void River Master; the two of them didn't contribute much.
Now, his strength was comparable to the former Mechanical Race's Father God, while Peng Gong True God could suppress the Mechanical Race's Father God.
This was the gain from comprehending the ice mountain that contained ultimate profoundness!
...
Seeing that the powerhouses from various forces in the Universe Ocean had not yet acted, Ender transmitted a message through the Virtual Universe: "Luo Feng, you control the Boat of Mausoleum to shrink its volume, and I will put it into my palace Arcana treasure and take it away."
In an instant.
The majestic and enormous Boat of Mausoleum visibly shrank at a speed discernible to the naked eye. This scene made the powerhouses from various forces in the Universe Ocean surprised and doubtful.
Immediately after, a dark red palace Arcana treasure appeared above the Boat of Mausoleum, rapidly expanding.
"Oh no, the Human Race wants to take the Boat of Mausoleum back to the Original Universe!"
"Our race is from the Second Reincarnation Era; we cannot enter the Original Universe. Once the Boat of Mausoleum is taken away, we will have no chance to obtain the Legacy."
"Cannot let the Human Race take the Boat of Mausoleum away!"
The powerhouses from various forces in the Universe Ocean were stirring, and some were even about to make a move but stopped themselves forcefully.
Only because...
Whoosh!
A black Huge Axe flew from afar, with astonishing speed, ignoring the dangers within the Blazing Ice Region, as if it could cleave through anything in its path.
"Huge Axe Creator?!"
"Damn it, not coming sooner or later, but precisely at this moment!"
"The Human Race has Void River Master, Peng Gong True God, and Qing Dong True God; the Legacy was already difficult to obtain, and now Huge Axe Creator has also arrived..."
The powerhouses from various forces looked at the approaching black Huge Axe, some with gloomy expressions, some with inner rage, and some secretly relieved.
The Human Race's Huge Axe Creator and Void River Master were both among the top-ranked powerhouses in the Universe Ocean, especially the latter, who had accessed the Duan Dong River's basic Legacy, and whose strength might have improved further.
If only one of these two powerhouses were present, they would still dare to try and seize the Legacy.
With both of them present... that completely extinguished any thoughts of seizing the Legacy!
"Haha, I'm truly surprised that everyone is here to welcome me."
Huge Axe Creator's hearty laughter rang out, his voice arriving before he did.
"Huge Axe is here."
Peng Gong True God laughed. "Now they won't dare to make a move."
Bo Ya nodded upon hearing this, her last bit of worry dissipating.
The black Huge Axe was extremely fast, arriving beside Ender and the others in no time, transforming into a burly man resembling a savage.
"Huge Axe!"
The Divine Eye Race's Seventh True Master's eyes widened, filled with unwillingness.
"Huge Axe, congratulations to your Human Race for obtaining the Duan Dong He Inheritance."
The Second True Master's eyelids lowered, then he decisively turned and left. "Let's go!"
"It's time to leave."
Seeing this, Northern True Star Master, following the words of his Ancestor East Emperor, led the Universe Masters behind him to transform into streams of light and flee.
Watching the powerhouses from the Divine Eye Race and the East Emperor Holy Land Universe depart, the various forces knew they had lost the chance to seize the Legacy, so they each called upon their clansmen and allies to leave.
"Let's go, it's time for us to return to the Original Universe."
Ender waited for the Dark Blaze Palace to swallow the Boat of Mausoleum, then retrieved the Dark Blaze Palace.
"Back to the Original Universe."
Huge Axe Creator burst into laughter, then led everyone to transform into a black Huge Axe, fleeing in the direction of the Original Universe...
