The Bird Masters, the Monkey Masters, and the human spirits all stared at the humanoid figure in astonishment.
His words, combined with the oppressive aura emanating from him, shocked them greatly.
What were the so-called Cinnabar race and the Fostering race?
Were they truly a hundred times stronger than the Four Spirits Sect?
And what was the Sacred Spirit race?
Could they really be ten thousand times stronger than the Four Spirits Sect?
There were existences even more powerful than the Sacred Spirit race?
What worlds was this humanoid creature talking about?
All these questions buzzed in their minds as they tried to wrap their heads around everything the humanoid creature talked about. Among everyone present, Corbett seemed to be the calmest.
Eyeing the humanoid creature warily, he asked, "The Stellar World... Are you talking about the Deep Space?"
The Four Spirits Sect had referred to the world above the main world as the Deep Space. However, Kincaid once mentioned that the Deep Space had a specific name—the "Stellar World", he called it. Only very few people knew of this name.
"What do you think?" the humanoid creature retorted indifferently.
"The World of No Limits... And the Boundless Divine World... Their grades are higher than the Deep Space's?" Corbett queried further.
"I have already downgraded those worlds," the humanoid creature declared proudly.
Zen stared at the humanoid creature incredulously. "Why did you do that? What does the downgrading mean to you?"
The humanoid creature laughed sinisterly. "You don't need to know that. The only thing you need to do is give me the sword. Once I downgrade this world to the third grade, I'll let you live... Maybe I'll even let the human race rule the Lower Extreme World."
This Lower Extreme World he referred to was actually the chaos.
Zen's eyes lit up with interest at the humanoid creature's offer.
"What do you think?" the humanoid creature asked, noticing Zen's sparked interest.
It actually sounded like a good idea.
After all, Zen's original goal was to revive the human race.
To his surprise, Zen smiled. "After we rule the Lower Extreme World, you continue to downgrade it to the second grade," Zen said slowly. "Then, I'd become your puppet, like the Snake Spirit King, right?"
"If you refuse, I'll just kill you, along with your race," the humanoid creature said with a nonchalant shrug.
The Bird Masters, the human spirits, the Primeval Lord of Heaven, the Snake Goddess, and the others who were listening to their exchange all felt their chests tighten.
Even the usually valiant Monkey Masters had fallen silent, caution written all over their faces.
The situation was definitely grim. This humanoid creature was so powerful that it was simply impossible to put up a fight.
It seemed that Zen's only choice was to accept his offer.
However, to everyone's surprise, Zen just smiled calmly. "What makes you think you're strong enough to kill me?"
His words shocked everyone numb.
Although he was extremely powerful now and had killed the Snake Spirit King twice, it would be no easy feat to kill this black humanoid figure.
What made Zen so confident?
"If you were really that powerful, why did you leave this sword in the altar for so long? Why did you have to use the Snake Spirit King as a puppet?"
By now, Zen's calm smile had turned into a smirk. "I doubt you are strong enough to downgrade this world. The truth of the matter is that the Stellar World wasn't completely downgraded. Now, the remains of the starry sky are still floating above the main world. You were also unable to downgrade the main world, even though you wanted to. Therefore, you needed to have the Four Spirits Sect send the world builders to downgrade the worlds little by little. That was why secondary worlds were built one after another, including the chaos.
The Lower Extreme World is not your ultimate goal. If I give you the sword, you will continue to downgrade it.
What do you take me for? I'm not that stupid!"
As Zen spoke, he gradually raised his sword, and the energy in the cracks on the blade slowly began to surge.
