As divine power continuously merged into the Supreme Treasure, Ice Peak Lord finally felt a sense of security. Since Qin Hao handed this Supreme Treasure to him, he had never used it, keeping it as a trump card for survival.
"Damn Human Race, to actually obtain a Supreme Treasure. But, how long can you last inside this turtle shell?" The Mechanical Race Father God's voice was cold. His initial anger and disbelief at the situation gradually turned into icy coldness.
The mechanical torrent formed by divine power continued its relentless assault. Each attack struck the defense created by the palace. Under the high-frequency, high-intensity attacks, Ice Peak Lord's divine power was rapidly depleting.
Even with the Supreme Treasure, which could completely block the attacks, the consumption was enormous. With each attack, Ice Peak Lord had to resist with all his might.
The gap between a True God and a Universe Lord was still immense. While not fully apparent in the Primordial Universe, the distance widened significantly in the Universe Sea. Even being one step away from a Universe Strongest meant a difference in strength of dozens or even hundreds of times.
Moreover, the Mechanical Race Father God was an Eighth-Order True God level expert, making the strength disparity even greater. However, the power of the Supreme Treasure made it extremely difficult for the Mechanical Race Father God to break through in a short period.
"I can't just wait for rescue here; I must find a way to escape." Ice Peak Lord quickly calculated in his mind. He channeled divine power into the palace, and the light emanating from it suddenly became much more intense.
Powerful spatiotemporal fluctuations merged with the cold air, and a strong wave instantly surged towards the Mechanical Race Father God's position at extreme speed. Along the way, the surrounding space-time seemed to be frozen, and even the Mechanical Race Father God's supply slowed for an instant.
"Now's the time." In that fleeting moment of stagnation, under Ice Peak Lord's control, the palace instantly broke through the surrounding space-time restrictions, transforming into a streak of light, its speed soaring to the extreme.
In just an instant, Ice Peak Lord's speed had reached the speed of light, and swiftly achieved the limit of a hundred times the speed of light. The surrounding controlled space-time, under the Supreme Treasure manipulated by Ice Peak Lord, was continuously impacted, shattered, and turned into broken fragments, no longer able to restrict Ice Peak Lord's path forward.
"Damn it!" Watching the Ice Peak Lord break out, the Mechanical Race Father God couldn't help but feel somewhat stifled. Having to restrain his strength while trying to keep Ice Peak Lord there was indeed difficult. By some oversight, Ice Peak Lord had actually managed to escape.
At this moment, the Mechanical Race Father God was no longer prepared to continue hiding. His massive figure emerged from the nine-eyed black elliptical sphere. His streamlined, towering body, tens of thousands of kilometers tall, was entirely composed of various metals. The cold light emanating from his body caused the surrounding space-time to stagnate.
"A mere Universe Lord dares to resist? If I really let you go, where would I put my face?" There wasn't much emotion detectable in the metallic voice.
The Mechanical Race Father God's figure suddenly vanished from its original spot, reappearing directly in Ice Peak Lord's path with a single teleportation. Looking at the powerful palace Supreme Treasure, the Mechanical Race Father God didn't hesitate in the slightest. A powerful energy beam directly attacked it.
At the moment of impact, the palace's speed began to drop rapidly. Although Ice Peak Lord was unharmed, the palace Supreme Treasure was restricted. He changed direction again, but before he could fly too far, he was intercepted by the Mechanical Race Father God once more.
"You'll stay here today. This Supreme Treasure is not something a mere Universe Lord can control; offer it to me. I might spare your life." The Mechanical Race Father God said to Ice Peak Lord inside the palace.
"Is this the true strength of a Universe Strongest?" Ice Peak Lord's heart was filled with surprise. He had encountered Universe Strongest before, but never with such intense suppression.
Now, even with the Supreme Treasure palace's enhancement, he couldn't escape. In the Collapsing Peak World, every casual teleportation accurately intercepted him.
"I need to notify the others not to come. Facing the Mechanical Race Father God, even with more Universe Lords, it will be very difficult to resist." Ice Peak Lord made a judgment and directly notified the approaching Universe Lords.
Perhaps against an ordinary Universe Strongest, a numerical advantage could prolong the time. However, against the Mechanical Race Father God before him, even a few more Universe Lords would find it difficult to escape. Instead, the increased numbers would become a burden in the confrontation.
"Ice Peak Lord is telling us to retreat!" Lord of Void Gold looked at Ice Peak Lord's message, his heart somewhat hesitant. Facing the Mechanical Race Father God, Ice Peak Lord had no chance of winning, and even the time he could stall was very limited.
If they retreated, Ice Peak Lord would likely perish. After all, neither Qin Hao of the Primordial Universe, nor Primordial Chaos City Lord, nor Great Axe Founder in the Collapsing Peak World, could arrive quickly.
Now, being told to retreat, he clearly had plans to perish.
"What should we do?" Lord of Green East also hesitated. In the current situation, their going there clearly wouldn't change the outcome. But letting Ice Peak Lord perish was also impossible.
Ice Peak Lord's status was special; he was not only Primordial Chaos City Lord's junior brother, a high-ranking member of the Virtual Universe Corporation, but also the teacher of Qin Hao, the Star Controller's clone. He had to be taken seriously.
"Continue forward. Any time we can stall is good. The Star Controller has already entered the Universe Sea; as long as we can stall until he arrives, there will be no problem." Lord of Void Gold quickly made a decision. The few of them didn't stop, continuing to advance rapidly towards Ice Peak Lord's location.
During their rapid advance, they also continuously teleported. Each advance was almost at their limit, no longer caring about the dangers of teleporting in the Universe Sea.
On the battlefield, Ice Peak Lord continuously tried to break through, but each time he was blocked by the Mechanical Race Father God. Every time he stopped, he faced a clear and direct attack. Under the powerful might, even with the Supreme Treasure's enhancement, Ice Peak Lord gradually found it difficult to sustain.
The Supreme Treasure was powerful, but not without solution. A True God wielding a Supreme Treasure would generally receive a great boost, reaching an invincible level within their own rank. But this was based on the same rank. When there was a difference in rank, even a Supreme Treasure could only compensate, but it was difficult to resist a stronger expert.
Take Great Axe Founder, for example. Without the Supreme Treasure Great Axe, he was at the Eighth-Order True God level. With the Supreme Treasure Great Axe's enhancement, he reached the peak of the Ninth-Order. However, when facing a 10th Tier True God, he still had no ability to resist.
Ice Peak Lord's current situation was very similar. With the Supreme Treasure's enhancement, he reached the peak of the Sixth-Order True God, or even the defensive power of a Seven-rank True God. But facing the Eighth-Order True God Mechanical Race Father God, he could only passively resist.
Although the Supreme Treasure palace would not be damaged in a short time, the enormous consumption meant that even a Universe Lord could only sustain it for a limited time.
