Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”Oh? A Treasure from the Netherworld Era, you’re quite lucky, kid.”

Just as Lin Mo was feeling excited, a soft white cloud appeared in the quiet room, with the Dongling World Lord sitting cross-legged on it, his eyes unblinking as he stared at the Great Wilderness Stele in Lin Mo’s palm and remarked in surprise.

”Lord Dongling World Lord, do you also know this Treasure?” Lin Mo asked in haste. Dongling World Lord nodded gently, his expression serious, ”The symbols on it should be Ancient Netherworld Patterns. Even some Netherworld Pattern Masters I know have only a fragmented understanding of Ancient Netherworld Patterns. I didn’t expect such a Treasure to fall into your hands. There should be some important secrets hidden within this Great Wilderness Stele.”

Lin Mo nodded, feeling the same way, his mind itching with curiosity. He wanted to try the Black Snake Totem to see if he could decipher the Ancient Netherworld Patterns on the Great Wilderness Stele. ”Unfortunately, I can’t decipher the runes on it. This Great Wilderness Stele is just a decent Treasure for now. Let’s see if you have the chance to meet a skilled Netherworld Pattern Master in the future who can help you unravel the runes on it.” The Dongling World Lord shook his head regretfully as he spoke.

Lin Mo continued to stare at the Great Wilderness Stele, saying nothing, lost in silence. His heart was eager to attempt, but ultimately his rationality prevailed. If the Great Wilderness Stele truly held important secrets and treasures, revealing them upon deciphering it would undoubtedly alert the World Generals of Dragon Platform City, bringing unnecessary disaster.

”Seems like I can only hope to encounter a Netherworld Pattern Master in the future.” Lin Mo chuckled, then carefully stored the Great Wilderness Stele away.

...

Dragon Platform City, Northern Plaza.

”Brother Long Xiang, are we just going to let it go?” Zuo’an World General looked at Long Xiang World General, whose face was livid with anger, and spoke softly.

He felt aggrieved, refusing to accept that Lin Mo had snatched away his Space Ring. Long Xiang World General was also unwilling, having lost to Lin Mo and disgraced himself among the Demon Clan, with even his Treasure, the Great Wilderness Stele, taken by Lin Mo!

”It’s all because of you.” Long Xiang World General, eyes bloodshot, reached out to grip Zuo’an World General’s throat, ”If it weren’t for you, how could I have lost the Treasure.”

With that, he exerted a force that sent Zuo’an World General sprawling on the ground, sliding a dozen meters with his body against the surface, not daring to resist before the furious Long Xiang World General.

”Damn Lin Tanyu, without my Great Wilderness Stele, my Six-Finger Dominance is only left with five fingers.” Long Xiang World General clenched his fists, his fury overwhelming.

To survive in the Asura Battlefield, Martial Arts Treasures are indispensable. Losing the Great Wilderness Stele was akin to having an arm severed, greatly diminishing his strength.

”Lord Long Xiang, I have a plan. Lin Tanyu Realm General carries an Ultimate Weapon. Tell Blood Emperor World General this news, perhaps he’ll be tempted.” Yun Dong World General nearby spoke softly and cautiously.

Upon hearing this, the enraged Long Xiang immediately calmed down, frowning, unsure if Blood Emperor World General possessed an Ultimate Weapon, but who would dislike having more Ultimate Weapons? Perhaps this was an option.

Thinking about it, Long Xiang World General gritted his teeth, ”Follow me, we can only try this plan.”

Zuo’an World General climbed up from the ground as well, and the two followed Long Xiang World General, heading straight toward the towering pillar in the plaza’s center.

The Ultimate Weapon on Lin Mo’s body was initially his target, but now he not only failed to obtain it, but instead gave his own Great Wilderness Stele to Lin Mo.

The three stopped before the massive stone pillar at the plaza’s center. Numerous Demon Clan Asura World Generals cast their thoughts or gaze towards Long Xiang World General upon his appearance, their eyes filled with mocking coldness, as a dignified Third-Transformation Shura had lost to a Second-Transformation Shura from the Star Sky Alliance, losing face for the Demon Clan.

With those cold, mocking stares upon him, Long Xiang World General respectfully bowed, saying with sincerity, ”Long Xiang World General seeks to visit Lord Blood Emperor.”

A blood-colored silhouette manifested before the three.

Long Xiang World General and Zuo’an, along with Yun Dong, deeply bowed their heads, showing utmost respect.

”Long Xiang World General, you’ve disgraced our Demon Clan, and yet you have the face to see me?” Blood Emperor World General’s tone was icy, unhappy with Long Xiang’s failed challenge. Long Xiang World General bowed even lower, then used True Yuan to create a soundproof barrier, murmuring softly, ”Lord Blood Emperor, I’m not asking for your help in retrieving the Treasure, I’m just saying Lin Tanyu Realm General is too arrogant, he doesn’t respect you at all.”

”Silence.” Blood Emperor World General’s gaze turned cold, suddenly exerting spatial pressure around Long Xiang World General, causing his bones to creak and his face to redden, ”Do you think I’m foolish enough to fight for you over a few provocations?”

”My Lord, I just wanted to tell you, Lin Tanyu... Lin Tanyu possesses an Ultimate Weapon, a Sword Array type Ultimate Weapon.” Long Xiang World General’s eyes bulged as he quickly stated.

Long Xiang World General’s words had just fallen when the oppressive spatial pressure around him had dissipated.

”An Ultimate Weapon? He has a Sword Array type Ultimate Weapon?” Blood Emperor World General muttered to himself.

”Indeed, he truly carries an Ultimate Weapon, merely because there are too many prying eyes in the mountains, he dares not reveal it easily.” Long Xiang World General lowered his head, his eyes rapidly shifting as he gauged Blood Emperor World General’s thoughts.

Will an Ultimate Weapon tempt him? ”I’m here to compete for the Asura Inheritance, and I’m one step away from the Sixth-Transformation Shura. Although Ultimate Weapons are valuable, I won’t break the rules for them, especially since the Star Sky Alliance’s Jing Yuan Realm General isn’t easy to deal with.” Blood Emperor

Shura pondered aloud, ”Long Xiang World General, go back and cultivate well, do not bring up this matter again.”

After the Blood Emperor World General spoke, his figure vanished without a trace.

Long Xiang World General stood dazed, an Ultimate Weapon unable to pique Lord Blood Emperor’s interest? Would they truly spare Lin Tanyu?

Zuo’an World General and Yun Dong World General also had gloomy expressions, revealing signs of disappointment. Returning to the top of the stone pillar, Blood Emperor World General’s lips curled into a cunning arc as he softly murmured, ”Oh, an Ultimate Weapon, who would dislike having more Ultimate Weapons? Once the Asura Inheritance is unlocked, I’ll naturally obtain Lin Tanyu Realm General’s Ultimate Weapon, for the wind will surely topple a solitary tree.”

The following day.

Morning light broke through clouds, rays of dawn illuminating the sky.

Lin Mo, along with Meng Yu and others, arrived early at the center of Dragon Platform City, where the largest auction house was located. It’s a structure built of giant stones in a ’井’ shape, accommodating over ten thousand World Generals to sit simultaneously for auctions. The auction house was jointly established by the Demon Clan Asura World Generals and Star Sky Alliance Asura World Generals, utilizing ’Dragon Sea Star Coins’ as the common currency, cast from a unique metal ’Luo Gold’ from Dragon Sea Star for convenient transactions.

Any Treasure can be exchanged for ’Dragon Sea Star Coins,’ and ’Dragon Sea Star Coins’ can be used to trade any Treasure, which is the rule of Dragon Sea Star.

”Lord Lin Tanyu.” Just upon stepping into the first-floor hall of the auction house, a portly man with a smiling face approached.

Lin Mo halted his steps, looking at the person with curiosity, ”Who are you?”
