Chapter 1562: Upgrade Summoning Gate! Upgrade Primordial Dragon Nest!

Chapter 1562: Upgrade the Summoning Gate! Upgrade the First Dragon Nest!

"Stay safe."

"You take what you can, but if you can't, don't force it— I have other sources."

"My own life comes first."

Zhou Zhou said it plainly.

He could not even begin to imagine the ferocity of the conflict between the Supreme Will and the Void Emperor.

Two beings transcending the realm of will—what battle between them would not shatter the entire Ultimate Void Battlefield? It would be nothing short of absurd to think that such a clash could be contained or contained within bounds.

Master of a Hundred Evils had just ascended and was currently at the fourth rank of Supreme God, not yet reaching the threshold of a near-omnipotent will. If he failed to secure the Ultimate Void Crystals and the Chaotic Divine Treasures within the Sacred Realm, Zhou Zhou would not fault him for failure.

"Relax, brother. I'm not stupid. I'll always value my own life."

"And don't underestimate me, brother. I still have confidence that I can retrieve the Ultimate Void Crystals and the Chaotic Divine Treasures from that Sacred Realm."

The Supreme Demon Lord laughed.

Zhou Zhou nodded.

He must certainly believe it.

The Ultimate Void Clan has held onto the Sanctum they guard in the Ultimate Void Battlefield for so many years, and the Void Emperor has never managed to wrest it from the Demon Lord's grasp—this clearly speaks to the master's exceptional self-preservation skills.

As for his confidence, Zhou Zhou didn't know where it came from, but since the other had stated it so boldly, Zhou Zhou naturally wouldn't mock or embarrass him.

Let him go.

A true Third Reserve Supreme Lord, if he had the audacity to speak such words, must surely possess some measure of self-assurance and skill.

After a few more words of conversation, Zhou Zhou and the Supreme Demon Lord severed their communication.

Then Zhou Zhou began to think again.

The arrangements on the Ultimate Void Battlefield were now complete.

Then came the matter of arranging the four primary god realms in each of the two great universes.

He intended to assist the trusted lords of the Supreme Great Universe in establishing four such realms.

Within the Crimson Great Universe, he would select suitable Crimson Lords to found four more primary god realms.

As to why he would not choose to establish them all within the Supreme Great Universe—the answer is straightforward.

The number of Chaos God Treasures is finite!

The treasures within a single great universe are limited; dividing them among eight primary god realms would drastically reduce efficiency.

But if two great universes share the burden, dividing the resources to build eight realms across both, the establishment would be far more manageable.

Zhou Zhou’s current focus is on achieving the fastest possible advancement—safe and swift.

He simply dismisses any inefficient plans.

"There are numerous suitable candidates within the Supreme Great Universe. The simplest course is to directly select the lords of the Stellar Alliance, help them establish primary god realms, and then fully subdue them all."

The resources consumed in this process are, to me, merely a matter of shifting something from the left hand to the right; the fertile waters never flow into an outsider's field.

As for the Scarlet Cosmos, there is actually little need for contemplation.

Whoever stands closest to the realm of the Beginner True God is the one to be nurtured, and then, ruthlessly harvested.

However, before that, the origin of the Chaotic Divine Treasures within the Scarlet Cosmos must first be brought to light.

With this thought, Zhou Zhou immediately delved into the memories of the original host, Nocturne.

A moment later.

A look of astonishment crossed Zhou Zhan's face.

For according to the contents within Nocturne's memories, the Chaotic Divine Treasures within the Scarlet Cosmos originated from a mineral vein located inside an Ultimate Void Cosmos.

The ore yielded by this very vein was none other than the Chaotic Divine Treasures!

Yet, because this mineral vein was guarded by a boundless multitude of Chaotic Gods and Demons—among whose ranks the Supreme God level and even the Boundless Will realm were not lacking—even these Scarlet Lords found it difficult to extract a vast quantity of Chaotic Divine Treasures from the vein all at once, forced instead to steal only a meager amount from it each time.

Yet even so.

This small amount of chaotic divine treasures, once gathered by Os, had enabled Him to establish the very first rudimentary lord territory of a True God Kingdom within the Crimson Great Universe!

From this alone, one could glimpse just how breathtakingly staggering the reserves of this chaotic divine treasure vein truly were!

As Zhou Zhou finished browsing through this information, his heart could not help but pound wildly against his ribs, his face flushed with an uncontrollable surge of excitement.

That within this ultimate void, there actually existed a chaotic divine treasure vein of such immense proportions!?

This was magnificent!

Just moments ago, he had been fretting over how he would go about collecting chaotic divine treasures in the days to come.

Now, everything was resolved.

Though he had lost the ultimate void battlefield as a source of chaotic divine treasures, he had been blessed with a chaotic divine treasure vein of far greater and richer reserves!

Heaven itself is aiding me!

Osn could traverse that chaotic divine treasure vein and amass vast quantities of chaotic divine treasures, establishing his own foundational master god domain territory.

Himself, far stronger than Osn, must surely harvest even greater quantities of chaotic divine treasures from that very vein.

Thus, not only would he no longer fear the need to elevate his territory to a first-tier Supreme God level, but even should he need to advance to second, third, fourth, or higher-tier Supreme God domains, the chaotic divine treasures required for such ascensions—perhaps he would never have to worry about them at all.

"Yet only by seeing it firsthand can we know the actual reserves."

He pondered, then spoke:

"Week Twelve, Week Thirteen, Week Fourteen, Week Fifteen."

As the words left his lips,

four streams of nine-colored light shot forth from the Palace of Cycles and materialized before him.

"Self-body." *4

The four avatars nodded slightly.

Zhou Zhou nodded.

He looked at these four duplicates.

Each of these four had been created by him during moments of brief respite in his busy days, through the use of the technique of duplication.

He had not assigned them immediate tasks, but rather intended to deploy them when needed—thus, they had remained idle until now.

And now, it was time for them to serve.

"You each share with me the information I've just acquired," he said simply.

"Then I will assign you your duties."

Zhou Zhou spoke briefly: "Zhou Twelve, Zhou Thirteen—lead one hundred thousand main deities and twenty Supreme Deities to the Chaos God's Treasure Vein. Daily, extract the Chaos God's Treasures from there."

"If you encounter powerful enemies, do not hesitate to protect your lives. The treasures you acquire are secondary to survival."

"Zhou Fourteen, Zhou Fifteen."

"You are to journey into the Ultimate Void Grand Cosmos, seeking the Ultimate Void Crystal that can only be born within that realm."

"In times of danger, always prioritize your own survival first."

"As for me, I will create a supreme-tier, unique Master Aptitude specifically designed to aid in the search for the Chaos Divine Treasure and the Ultimate Void Crystal—enabling you to act with greater ease."

"Trust us."

Zhou Shiji to Zhou Shizhi said this.

Then they simply departed.

Afterward, Zhou Zhou spoke again:

"Zhou Shifteen."

Another copy emerged from within the Cycle of Rebirth Palace and arrived before Zhou Zhou.

"Master."

He said,

"Go take over from Zhou Zhan and handle matters concerning the Demon Lord's domain."

"The Crimson Great Cosmos is a strategically vital battlefield. You must manage it carefully—should our Supreme Great Cosmos ever launch an attack upon the Crimson Great Cosmos, your domain will serve as the perfect launching pad."

Zhou Zhou spoke earnestly.

"Rest assured."

Zhou Shiyu smiled and nodded, pointing to his own head and said, "My temperament, intellect, and mastery of bloodline inheritance closely resemble Zhou Zheng. Governing and developing a divine realm-level lordly faction is nothing short of simple for me."

"Very well."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhou felt a sense of ease.

Then Zhou Shiyu immediately opened a portal of shadow-bound transit and departed for the Crimson Great Cosmos.

As Zhou Zhou watched the fading silhouette of Zhou Shiyu retreating, he murmured softly to himself:

"Thus, everything has been arranged rather thoroughly."

"May all go well with them."

Then He glanced at the resource requirements for elevating the mid-tier Primordial God Nation Lords' domains to the high-tier Primordial God Nation Lords' domains.

Only the conquest of four junior Primordial God Nation Lords' territories remained.

All the others had already been fulfilled.

Yet even this upgrade requirement, Zhou Zhou felt, would take some time.

"Proceed slowly."

"It's useless to rush."

Shaking his head, Zhou dismissed the thought.

Then He approached the Summoning Gate, spending 4,000 yao units of fundamental material resources and 10,000 Intermediate Primordial God God Crystals to elevate the Summoning Gate to the upper tier of Primordial God status.

Text prompt appears.

[Congratulations! Your Summoning Gate has successfully been upgraded to a Main God-level structure!]

[Your daily population summon capacity has increased by +1 billion!]

[Among every daily summon, exactly 100 million professionals will appear!]

[Note: Due to the unique title 'The Glory of the Pioneer XIII,' your daily population summon capacity now reaches 20.6 billion 17.55 million 1,500 individuals!]

[Among every daily summon, exactly 1.3 billion 14 professionals will appear!]

Zhou Zhou read it through and nodded in satisfaction.

The base population summon capacity of a Main God-level Summoning Gate is 15.8596 billion 550,000 individuals!

With the influence of 'The Glory of the Pioneer XIII,' this has increased by a factor of 13, reaching 20.6 billion 17.55 million 1,500 individuals!

And among them, there are exactly 14 Main God-level Gods.

Then He glanced at the requirements for upgrading the Summoning Gate.

[Building Upgrade: 5000 yuans of wood, 5000 yuans of fine sand, 5000 yuans of metal, 5000 yuans of stone, 1000 pieces of first-tier god-level crystal, territory level upgraded to first-tier god-level!]

Zhou Zhou withdrew his gaze and, using 20 yuans of base materials, 10,000 mid-level god crystals, and 50 billion high-tier elemental gems, elevated the original Long Yuan to upper god status.

[Building Name: Original Long Yuan]

[Building Level: Upper God]

[Building Function: Each day, the Original Long Yuan can summon 60 billion epic junior pure-blood dragon clans, 6 billion legendary junior pure-blood dragon clans, 600 million lower-tier god junior pure-blood dragon clans... up to 6,000 true god upper-tier dragon deities as vassals under the commander. There is a 100% chance of summoning one legendary dragon clan, and a 50% chance of summoning two legendary dragon clans.]

[Note 1: Once all legendary dragon clans have been summoned, any remaining legendary dragon clans will be replaced by 1,000 true god upper-tier dragon deities.]

[Note 2: Once all pure-blood dragon clans have been summoned, the next summoned dragon clans will be replaced by dragon descendants.]

[Building Upgrade: This building has reached its maximum level and cannot be further upgraded.]

After carefully reviewing the capabilities of the Original Long Yuan, Zhou Zhou's brow lifted slightly.

Because this time He discovered that the base number of dragon races that could be summoned by the upgraded Original Dragon Deep had not increased at all—only the probability of summoning legendary dragon races had improved.

The Original Dragon Deep at the level of Supreme God could now summon a legendary dragon race with 100% certainty.

Additionally, there was a 50% chance of summoning two legendary dragon races.

At first glance, this seems like a modest improvement.

In reality, it truly is rather unremarkable.

After all, even the strongest legendary dragon race is merely a Supreme God-level dragon.

For Zhou Zhou at present, such power has already ceased to be considered among the absolute elite.

And yet, the final message displayed strangely indicated that this Original Dragon Deep could no longer be upgraded!

"Has it reached its limit?"

Zhou Zhou shook his head.

He hadn't anticipated it.

It was the very first Longyuan, the mythical-tier, unique lord's ability he had once placed his greatest hopes upon, that had first reached its potential limit.

He checked his own emotions and found himself strangely without regret.

Indeed.

The dragon race may be strong.

But did he possess the strength of the Primordial Spirit Clan, the Chaos God Clan, and the Herd God Clan?

When even those three clans had fallen at his feet, how could Zhou Zhou, a master-level divine structure of a dragon clan, possibly matter to him?

"Perhaps I should elevate the initial Longyuan to the highest tier of unique status to save it?"

That thought suddenly flashed into his mind.

Then he shook his head, dismissing it immediately.

There’s no need.

The pure-blooded dragon race is far weaker than the supreme divine weapons and the mightiest divine magi under His command.

If there are endless supplies of supreme divine weapons and mightiest magi, then what use is the pure-blooded dragon race?

Just for a collection?

Why waste energy on elevating the original Dragon Deep to a supreme-tier, unique lord’s talent when it would be far more efficient to upgrade other lord talents?

"Let it go to its limit—let it reach the edge."

"The pure-blooded dragon race and legendary dragon race of the Sun-Speaker Divine Clan have already reached sufficient numbers."

"There’s no need to waste resources further on elevating them."

Zhou Zhou murmured to himself.

Then he returned to the heart of the Divine Realm and sent for Mu Gu, Zheng Fugui, and Karo Moira.

A moment later.

The three of them arrived before Zhou Zhou.

"Your Majesty, we bow before you!"

They spoke respectfully.

"As always, tell me about your individual advancements since your territories have been elevated to the level of Supreme Deity."

Zhou Zhou said.

Mu Gu stepped forward first, bowing respectfully:

"Your Majesty, the rank of the Crimson Nidus under my command has advanced from Intermediate Supreme Deity to Upper Supreme Deity."

"The number of Fog Mothers derived from the Upper Supreme Deity Crimson Nidus has increased from one hundred million to five hundred million."

"Each Fog Mother's Fog World can now cultivate fifty billion Fog Monsters."

"Five hundred million fog mothers can collectively cultivate 25,000 ying-head mist monsters."

"Moreover, the quality and efficiency of my breeding of high-grade crimson offspring have also been significantly improved."

"Currently, I can produce 100 master-tier crimson deities per day. As for other levels of deities, they remain unchanged—so long as the crimson mist does not vanish, I can cultivate them without limit."

Mu Gu said.

Zhou Zhou heard this and his face revealed astonishment.

This was no less than 25,000 ying-head mist monsters—2.5 ji-head mist monsters!

If he used all these fog mothers to breed troops, under the blessings of the innate talents and titles of Tian Yun Di Huang and other lords, he would gain 5 ji copies of the Supreme Divine Weapon Recruitment Scroll, 5 ji copies of the Supreme Divine Weapon Promotion Certificate, 5 ji copies of the Supreme Sacred Divine Being Recruitment Scroll, and 5 ji copies of the Supreme Sacred Divine Being Promotion Certificate every single day!

That meant—

Starting tomorrow, merely through recruiting soldiers and promoting them, he would have an additional 20 jia of brand-new troops under his command!

To know that He now commanded no more than one hundred thousand nine thousand jing.

This single summons instantly multiplied His troops by tenfold!

And even the weakest of these twenty hundred-thousand soldiers were already epic-tier!

The rest were all legendary-tier!

Zhou Zhou couldn't begin to imagine how many gods would emerge under His command once they all ascended to divinity.

In terms of jing?

No!

In terms of gai—of gai!!!!!
