00:00The recent battle against the United Forces Alliance was a victory,
00:04but in the grand scheme of the original universe, it was merely a warning shot.
00:09Luo Feng, standing in the high tower of Star Tower, understood this immediately.
00:13The human race had proven it could defeat a united front of multiple races,
00:18but the cost was far higher than the glory.
00:20The victory shattered the illusion of human weakness.
00:23Before this, many idle races, the countless, minor factions scattered across the cosmos,
00:30had remained neutral, watching the superpowers fight.
00:33Now they saw the human race not as a minor player, but as a threat that could no longer be
00:38ignored.
00:39The fragile alliance that had just been defeated began to fracture.
00:43Races that had been forced to join the United Forces saw their opportunity to leave.
00:47One such race, a being with a tentacle-like lower body,
00:51made a calculated move that signaled the shift in power.
00:54He told Luo Feng that his race would leave the defeated alliance and join the Hong alliance.
01:00The logic was simple.
01:02The alliance was losing, and staying meant death.
01:05But there was a catch.
01:07Luo Feng didn't release them immediately.
01:09He demanded a specific individual, Ku Dark Master, as a condition for their safe departure.
01:15This wasn't just a negotiation.
01:17It was a display of leverage.
01:18The Milky Way horde leader held the leash.
01:21The other races knew that while they could leave the alliance,
01:24they couldn't leave the universe's power structure without paying a price.
01:28This single interaction highlighted a new reality.
01:31The human race was no longer just fighting for survival.
01:34They were actively reshaping the political map of the cosmos by offering a lifeline to the undecided.
01:41But the real story wasn't in the defections.
01:43It was in the reaction of the victor's enemies.
01:45Far away on the planet Bloodtooth Star, the representatives of the United Forces Alliance
01:51gathered to assess the damage.
01:53This wasn't a meeting of generals, but of universe supreme masters,
01:57the absolute pinnacle of power in the universe.
02:00They represented the five major superpowers, the dream demon, the shock demon,
02:05the bug empress, the father god, the devil ancestor, and the holy master.
02:10The atmosphere was not one of regrouping, but of panic.
02:13The defeat wasn't just a loss of face.
02:16It was a strategic failure that exposed a fundamental flaw in their thinking.
02:20The core of their fear wasn't the weapons Luo Feng had gained.
02:24It wasn't the mind shock.
02:26Valuable or the black prison.
02:28Tower.
02:29Those were tangible assets, yes.
02:31But they were static.
02:32The true nightmare for the coalition was the human race's potential for exponential growth.
02:38Father God, one of the most powerful minds present, cut through the panic with a chilling insight.
02:44He pointed out that the inheritance Luo Feng had received from the Duandong River wasn't just a treasure chest of
02:51items.
02:51It contained experience.
02:53It contained the knowledge of how to cultivate.
02:55This is the critical strategic pivot.
02:58In the first universe era, the Divine Eye Clan had produced seven universe supreme masters.
03:04They were a powerhouse because they could consistently birth new supreme level experts,
03:09allowing them to expand their territory and dominate the cosmos.
03:13That was the cycle of power.
03:16Inheritance.
03:17Training.
03:17New supreme masters.
03:19Expansion.
03:20The coalition realized that the human race had just unlocked that cycle.
03:24If the humans could replicate the Divine Eye Clan's success,
03:28they wouldn't just have seven supreme masters.
03:30They could eventually have ten, twenty, or more.
03:33The math was terrifying.
03:35If the human race multiplied its output of supreme masters by even three times,
03:40they would surpass the combined power of all the other major races in the universe.
03:44This triggered a fundamental law of the original universe that the masters had long ignored.
03:50The universe has a finite capacity for life.
03:53Father God articulated this with cold logic.
03:56There are only a certain number of lives that can be born in the original universe.
04:00If the humans become stronger, the other races must get weaker.
04:04This changed the objective of the war completely.
04:07It was no longer about winning battles or capturing territory.
04:10The objective became containment.
04:12The other races realized that if they allowed the human race to continue its growth unchecked,
04:18the human race would eventually become the only superpower in the universe,
04:22leaving no room for anyone else.
04:24The other races wouldn't just lose a war.
04:27They would be rendered obsolete.
04:29This is where the strategic landscape shifted from a military conflict to an existential one.
04:35The coalition couldn't defeat the human race through sheer force alone,
04:38because the human race's potential was growing every day.
04:42They had to act now, before the human race's cycle became unstoppable.
04:46The meeting revealed a deep fracture in the enemy's ranks.
04:50The six supreme masters who attended were the ones who held the most territory.
04:54They were the pinnacle races whose power was tied to their land.
04:58But the coalition included other powerful entities who didn't care about land.
05:03The Ancestral God School, the Space Beast Alliance, and the Lone Universe Supreme Masters.
05:09These groups had a different motivation.
05:11They didn't need territory.
05:13They needed the inheritance of incarnation transcendence.
05:16If the human race offered them that knowledge,
05:19they might defect from the coalition and join the humans.
05:22This was a massive vulnerability.
05:24The coalition realized that the humans could potentially
05:27recruit these neutral powers, tipping the balance even further.
05:31To counter this, the coalition had to broaden their recruitment strategy.
05:36They couldn't just rely on the major powers.
05:38They needed to rally the billions of idle races scattered across the universe.
05:42Here is the strategic brilliance of the enemy's counter move.
05:46The idle races are individually weak.
05:48A single idle race might have one or two universe masters.
05:52But collectively, they represent a vast amount of territory and a massive number of potential fighters.
05:58If the human race expands, it threatens the very existence of these idle races.
06:03The coalition's plan was simple but effective.
06:05Unite the weak against the strong.
06:08They would convince the idle races that the human race's expansion was a threat to everyone.
06:13If the humans took more territory, the idle races would lose their space.
06:18Therefore, the idle races would naturally align with the coalition to stop the human expansion.
06:24This is a masterclass in political maneuvering.
06:26The coalition realized that they didn't need to defeat the human race in a single battle.
06:31They only needed to prevent the human race from turning its new inheritance into a long-term advantage.
06:37By uniting the entire universe, major powers, neutral alliances, and the billions of idle races,
06:43they could create a wall that the human race would struggle to break.
06:47The meeting concluded with a grim consensus.
06:49The six powers agreed that they had to align with every possible faction,
06:53even the lone masters and the space beast alliance.
06:56They needed to ensure that the humans would never be able to offer the
07:00incarnation, transcendence, inheritance to these groups.
07:05The secret to power had to be kept out of human hands.
07:08The implications were profound.
07:10The human race had won a battle, but in doing so,
07:13they had united the entire cosmos against them.
07:16The rehearsal was over.
07:18The real war was about to begin, and this time,
07:21the human race wouldn't be fighting a fractured alliance.
07:24They would be fighting a unified universe that saw them as an existential threat.
07:29The storm was coming, and this time it wouldn't just be a battle for territory.
07:33It would be a battle for the very right to exist in the universe.
07:37The price of staying silent.
07:39Gemini star's light broke through the clouds in a wash of orange.
07:43And beneath it, the Yanya people.
07:45Lived the kind of life most races in the primal universe couldn't afford to want.
07:50Peaceful.
07:51Their bodies were strange by any standard.
07:53Four hooved legs like a wild beast.
07:56Four arms.
07:57Faces close enough to human to pass for kin.
08:00But the stranger thing was their temperament.
08:03Gentle by default, almost unsettlingly so.
08:05Except that gentleness had a switch.
08:08Anger flipped it, and the same person kneeling, quietly in a wooden hall,
08:12could become something closer to a weapon.
08:14Peace for the Yanya wasn't weakness.
08:17It was just the setting they preferred not to leave.
08:19It was into that peace that balance.
08:22Stringmaster dropped out of the sky,
08:24a streak of light resolving,
08:25into a heavy, metal-bodied frame in purple armor automaton down to the eyes.
08:32Yanya Master greeted him like family, and that wasn't performance.
08:36The two of them had a history that mattered here.
08:38They'd pulled each other out of life-and-death situations before,
08:42out in the universe ocean.
08:44The kind of shared danger that leaves a debt neither side forgets.
08:48That's why he'd come in person instead of sending word through someone else.
08:51Your race's fate is tangled up in this, too, he told her.
08:55I wasn't going to let you hear it secondhand.
08:57She already knew the headline.
08:59Everyone did.
09:00His automaton race, the Bug Clan,
09:03and the demons had gone to war as a united front against the human camp,
09:07and lost.
09:08Not narrowly, either.
09:10Badly enough that the news had traveled.
09:12To every corner of the primal universe within days.
09:15She poured him wine, anyway,
09:17to hear the rest of it.
09:18A pale green vintage her people were known for,
09:22its scent filling the room before the glass even reached his hand.
09:26He drank while he explained.
09:28And what he explained was worth sitting with,
09:30because it's the logic that drives everything else in this chapter.
09:34The humans, he said,
09:36had just come into possession of the knowledge of an ancient civilization,
09:40something old, powerful,
09:42and until recently locked away from them.
09:44They'd barely started using it,
09:46and already they'd broken three major races at once.
09:49Run that forward a few more years, he argued,
09:52and you don't get a manageable neighbor.
09:54You get something that could eclipse even the divine I-Clan,
09:58a name from the very first reincarnation era,
10:01back when that clan was apparently the standard,
10:04for too strong to stop,
10:06and a race that's strong doesn't stay inside its own borders.
10:10Because in this universe,
10:12strength and territory aren't separate things.
10:14How much land,
10:16how much space a race is allowed to hold and grow into,
10:19scales directly with how powerful that race becomes.
10:22It's not ambition exactly.
10:24It's closer to a law of nature out here,
10:26gets strong enough.
10:27An expansion simply happens,
10:29the way water finds the lowest point.
10:32You know who actually holds the most territory out here?
10:35He asked her.
10:37Not us.
10:38Not any of the six pinnacle races.
10:40Not the automaton race.
10:42The bug clan,
10:43the demons,
10:44the humans,
10:44the prison clan,
10:46or the crystal clan.
10:47It's you.
10:48All of you scattered races put together.
10:50Individually you're small,
10:51individually you're weak,
10:53but stacked up across the whole primal universe.
10:55You're sitting on more
