Swallowing the Stars: Shocking! The Giant Axe Wants to Become My Apprentice

Chapter 365 Zhou Ze's Scheme

Chapter 365 Zhou Ze's Scheme

Chaos City.

The gray, chaotic air currents lingered year after year, and the ancient city showed no signs of wear and tear even after hundreds of millions of years.

Inside the City Lord's Mansion, in the "Holy Master's Mansion," Zhou Ze sat high on his throne, his eyes slightly closed, surrounded by the fluctuations of the five fundamental laws of metal, wood, water, and earth.

"The universe—the universe—the Chaos Monument created by the Lord of Chaos City truly lives up to its name—"

Zhou Ze slowly opened his eyes and looked ahead. The next moment, Babata's figure jumped out, anxiously saying:

"Your clone was killed, you know that? You couldn't possibly not know, could you?"

"You were able to easily kill an Immortal of the Zerg back then, a being who was invincible at the King level. Even if that Mad Wolf Venerable was strong, he couldn't possibly kill you so easily, could he?"

Zhou Ze smiled slightly and said, "Look, you're in such a hurry again. You wanted to learn the 'Mind Cultivation Method' from me a while ago. If you keep going like this, you'll never even get started."

Babata retorted angrily, "Don't change the subject! Answer me! That's the most important core material for crafting top-tier primordial treasures!"

Zhou Ze slowly said, "I didn't resist at all, as you saw, which means I definitely did it on purpose."

Babata calmed down and asked, "Why did you do this?"

Zhou Ze explained, "That Mad Wolf Venerable is, after all, a Venerable second only to the Universe Overlord level. I'm not confident I can take him down before he can react. And if I do, even if I manage to kill him, he'll definitely be able to transmit the information about the Heart of Time before he dies!"

"At that time, not only Venerable Ones, but even Universe Lords and the strongest beings in the universe will come. After all, this is a core material that can create top-tier primordial treasures. Once obtained, one can acquire a top-tier primordial treasure!"

Babata thought for a moment and said, "Top-tier primordial treasures are indeed very important, even many universe lords don't possess them!"

"You've lowered your standards—" Zhou Ze glanced at Babata, which immediately aroused Babata's dissatisfaction.

"What kind of look is that! It just means it can quickly restore the owner's divine body—"

"You still won't accept it!" Zhou Ze chuckled. "For an individual, a primordial treasure is as you say, but for any race, in some ways, it's comparable to a clan's most prized possession!"

"Once you possess a primordial treasure, you can quickly restore your divine body and easily revive powerful members of your race below the level of a universe lord. It has strategic value!"

"Ah, that's important?" Babata blinked her big eyes, then exclaimed in surprise, "Can someone be resurrected after dying?"

Now it was Zhou Ze's turn to be surprised: "With my level of authority, how could you not know?"

"Ahem—" Babata said awkwardly, "There's so much information about each ethnic group—"

"Heh—" Zhou Ze chuckled insincerely, "Are you really an intelligent life form?"

"What do you mean!" Babata immediately retorted, "I've been so focused on cultivation lately that I've neglected it."

"Alright, alright, you should work hard at your cultivation." Zhou Ze said sarcastically.

Although Babata was dissatisfied, she didn't continue to argue. However, she quickly realized what was happening:

"Zhou Ze, according to you, cultivators can be resurrected after death, then—"

Zhou Ze joked, "Come on, you're supposed to be an intelligent life form, and now you've even evolved into a mechanical race, how come your reactions are so slow!"

"Just as you thought, your boss, Huyanbo, can be resurrected, including his disciples and servants!"

Babata was extremely excited and hurriedly asked, "What are the conditions for resurrection?"

Zhou Ze understood Babata's feelings and explained, "There aren't any conditions. It's just that the Lord of the Universe needs to consume a lot of divine power to resurrect the deceased, which shows the importance of the Origin Treasure."

"This is an energy unique to the Lord of the Universe and the strongest being in the universe; it is a gift from the origin of the universe."

Babata said hesitantly, "Zhou Ze, could you please revive my boss?"

Zhou Ze raised his head slightly: "That depends on your performance—"

Babata rolled her eyes at Zhou Ze, and at first glance, she looked rather charming.

"I'll do as you say—"

Zhou Ze continued, "Just listen to me? Does that mean you're being a good girl?"

"Be good, okay?!" Babata appeared behind Zhou Ze, patting his back repeatedly with a big smile, looking incredibly cute.

After working for a while, Babata couldn't help but ask, "Zhou Ze, when are you going to invite the Lord of the Universe? Are you going to see the Lord of Chaos City? He values ​​you a lot, he should agree, right?"

Zhou Ze said speechlessly, "Can't you use your brain? For this matter, you actually made me ask the Lord of Chaos City to make a special trip. You really don't treat the Lord of Chaos City like the Executive Vice Emperor of the Human Race."

"Just wait, it's bound to happen sooner or later anyway. It's been so many years, what's the rush?"

Babata laughed and said, "That's true, alright then."

Babata was in a great mood. As an intelligent life form, he had been by Huyanbo's side for tens of millions of years, and their relationship was comparable to that of close relatives. In addition, Huyanbo had never treated him as a tool, and the two of them got along like father and daughter.

This is why Babata developed a somewhat spoiled princess personality.

After Huyanbo's death, Babata felt extremely sad whenever she recalled the past. But time flies, and before she didn't know that the dead could be resurrected, she could only suffer in pain. But now that she knew that the dead could be resurrected, she felt an indescribable joy and excitement.

Although he couldn't be resurrected immediately and reunite with her, it was only a matter of time. Given Zhou Ze's status and the speed at which his strength was increasing, she believed that day wouldn't be too far away.

"By the way, Zhou Ze, you plan to wait until the Heart of Time is fully formed before fighting that Mad Wolf Venerable, right?" Babata recalled what they had said at the beginning.

"Hmm." Zhou Ze nodded. "Actually, before the Lord of the Mad Wolves arrived, I had already considered what to do in this situation. Unless I was confident I could instantly enslave him, my best course of action was to be killed by him!"

"Otherwise, even if the other party manages to spare a sliver of consciousness and releases information, I will bear a significant risk."

"If my clone dies, the other party will definitely try to take possession of the Heart of Time without notifying anyone, so that when the Light takes form, they can seize it."

"Even if I have time to send out the message, I also have enough time to leave!"

Babata agreed, "That's indeed the safest method. After all, it's a priceless treasure; even the Lord of the Universe would be tempted."

"That Mad Wolf Venerable definitely won't tell anyone about the treasure!"

After chatting with Babata for a while, Zhou Ze left the Chaos Stele. He needed to prepare for the treasure hunt decades or even centuries later.
