“Only a master level expert can activate the third level of power?” Jian Wushuang was surprised.

“It’s all the same, and it’s because the blood crystal armor is only an elementary universe true treasure armor. If it’s an advanced or top-tier universe true treasure armor, even an ordinary master can’t fully unleash its power. But as long as it can unleash part of the power of a true treasure, it can greatly increase its strength.” Axe One Master smiled.

“My dear Heavenly Sword Marquis, you’ve just arrived at the Universe Battlefield, and you haven’t really explored it yet, so you don’t know much about it. In fact, for many great beings who have explored the three battlefields of the universe, their own power is important, but there are some powerful true treasures that can greatly enhance their power.

“Take ordinary attack true treasures as an example. Any universe true treasure, even if it’s just a low-level universe true treasure, can be very useful in the hands of great beings. Ordinary Principles Masters all have immortal bodies, which are extremely difficult to kill. However, as long as they have an attack godly weapon at the level of a universe true treasure, it’ll be easy to kill this Principles Master.

“For example, in the Divine Beginning Realm, it is extremely difficult for a Principles Master at the fifth level of the void realm to kill a Principles Master at the fourth level of the void realm. It requires a certain degree of luck. However, on the Universe Battlefield, if those Principles Masters at the fifth level of the void realm who have universe true treasures encounter a Principles Master at the fourth level of the void realm, as long as they think of a way to prevent the other party from escaping, it will be extremely easy to kill him. Sometimes, they can even kill the other party with a simple move or two.”

“Some Principles Masters who have a big gap in strength can even kill a Principles Master in one strike.”

“Is that so?” Jian Wushuang raised his eyebrows, he thought to himself, “It’s indeed very difficult to kill a Principles Master in the Divine Beginning Realm. However, in the Universe Battlefield, even though they are all Principles Masters, it seems that it’s relatively easy for an expert to kill a weak one as long as they have a powerful universe true treasure.”

“However, I don’t have any universe true treasures that can be used to attack.”

His offensive godly weapon was the Blood Mountain Sword, which was his original godly weapon. It had grown with him. Although it had the potential to become a universe true treasure, there was still a big gap between it and a universe true treasure, Star Palace had only given him a blood crystal armor for life-saving purposes, but they had not given him any offensive godly weapons.

“My young friend, there is another token here. This token is your identity token. After you refine it, you can sense any experts from the Star Palace near you. In addition, if you encounter any danger or trouble in the three battlefields in the future, you can use this token to seek help from the experts from the Star Palace around you at any time,” Axe One Master said.

“I understand.” Jian Wushuang took the token and nodded slightly.

“Alright, I’ve given you everything I need to give you. I’ve told you everything I need to tell you. Now, you can go directly to the hidden stronghold near Devil Smoke Valley through the universe passage in my Star Palace,” Axe One Master said, then he turned around and left.

“Thank you, Axe One Master.” Jian Wushuang thanked him.

After Axe One Master left, Jian Wushuang heaved a sigh of relief and then smiled.

“I have mastered the principles of destruction in the six hundred years of cultivation in the Star Palace. I have also created the strongest move in swordsmanship. It is time for me to go to the Devil Smoke Valley and have a good look.”

With that, Jian Wushuang headed straight for the Star Palace Cosmic Passage.

…

As one of the three battlefields, Devil Smoke Valley was frighteningly large.

In the Divine Beginning Realm, there were countless cultivators and vast territories in the universe, but in fact, the area of the Divine Beginning Realm was far smaller than Devil Smoke Valley, it was not even one-twentieth of the total area of Devil Smoke Valley.

It was precisely because Devil Smoke Valley was too vast that so many experts from the Star Palace went to explore it. However, the area they explored was still less than one-tenth of Devil Smoke Valley.

In the void near Devil Smoke Valley, there was a hidden stronghold of the Star Palace.

In the void outside the stronghold…

“Brother, this time, we have to properly explore Devil Smoke Valley. We have to find more opportunities before we can return,” Heavy Master, who carried a heavy sword on his back and was more than two meters tall, said in a deep voice.

“I know. Last time, in order to save me, you exchanged all the contribution points you earned in Star Palace in one go. You even exchanged the basic universe true treasure armor you obtained with great difficulty for contribution points. Only then did you ask Marquis Duan Yu to come and save me. Don’t worry. This time, you and I will explore Devil Smoke Valley. We must earn back all the things you exchanged for,” said an evil middle-aged man with purple hair and purple eyes.

“Haha, with your words, I can rest assured. With us brothers working together, as long as our luck isn’t too bad and we encounter a limited number of monsters, we should be able to do whatever we want. If we have the chance, we can even try venturing into the depths of Devil Smoke Valley,” the Heavy Master said.

“Venturing into the depths is still too much of a stretch. Let’s first venture into the outer regions and see if there are any gains,” the purple-haired, purple-eyed, evil middle-aged man said.

“Mhm.” Heavy Heavy Master nodded. But suddenly, his expression changed. He lifted his head and stared at the space behind him. There, a figure walked out from the Star Palace’s stronghold.

“Heavy heavy, that person walked out from your Star Palace’s stronghold. He should be an expert from your Star Palace, right? But why does he look so unfamiliar?” The violet-haired, violet-eyed, evil middle-aged man asked.

“Of course he’s unfamiliar. He has only stepped into the universe and has only been in my Star Palace for 600 years. During these 600 years, he has been staying in my Star Palace’s lair. This is probably the first time he has ventured into the three great battlefields,” Heavy Master said.

“Is that so?” The purple-haired, purple-eyed, evil middle-aged man understood.

However, Heavy Master had already frowned at this moment. “Strange. Six hundred years ago, Heavenly Sword Marquis was only an Immortal Saint when he was brought to the Star Palace by Marquis Duan Yu. Now, he has already broken through to become a Principles Master?”

“Six hundred years ago, he was only an Immortal Saint? In other words, he has just broken through to become a Principles Master?” The purple-haired, purple-eyed, evil middle-aged man could not help but be surprised. “A Principles Master who has just broken through actually dares to come to Devil Flame Island to explore. Moreover, it seems that he intends to explore alone? What audacity.”

“That’s right.” Heavy Master also nodded. “He has just broken through, and yet he dares to explore Devil Flame Valley alone. This Heavenly Sword Marquis really doesn’t know what’s good for him. In any case, he doesn’t have any friendship with us, so there’s no need to pay attention to him. Let’s go.”

After saying that, Heavy Master and the purple-haired, purple-eyed, evil middle-aged man headed straight for Devil Flame Valley.
