Chapter 629 You're the first to say I lack character
"I don't know either, but the fact is they 'chicked out,' and I haven't even used my ultimate move yet," Zhou Ze said helplessly, spreading his hands.
Now, even Zhou Ze, the culprit who extorted the Divine Eye Clan, has no idea what the Divine Eye Clan is thinking.
Everything has gone too smoothly. Even if the other side is really willing to give up a supreme treasure, in theory, there should be a struggle first, and they should feel that they can't do anything to us and have no choice but to give up a supreme treasure.
"Just now, the other side didn't deliberately conceal their voices; the decision just now seems to have been made by the Divine Eye God," Giant Axe said after thinking for a moment.
"Why would God the Eye make that decision?"
"That being was able to withstand the attacks of the Primordial Ancestor back then, so there's absolutely no need for him to compromise."
Zhou Ze smiled and said, "Perhaps he's kind..."
The founder of the giant axe had a blank expression: "You don't understand the Divine Eye True Lord. Not only is he slightly inferior to the Primordial Ancestor in terms of combat power, but he is also unparalleled in the universe in terms of calculation. Your actions are only good for bullying the stars and ice cliffs. He can see through your purpose at a glance."
"But why did he compromise so easily? We haven't even really fought them yet," Zhou Ze retorted.
After a moment of silence, the giant axe looked at Zhou Ze with a sudden realization and said, "I understand..."
"What did you understand?" Zhou Ze asked.
"If there's no other special reason, then there's only one reason he made this decision: he's afraid of you and the Milky Way!" Giant Axe said confidently.
"Really?" Zhou Ze said.
"Of course!" Giant Axe nodded affirmatively, "Your and Galaxy's growth rate is too fast. Even the Primordial Ancestor couldn't do it back then. It's absolutely defying the heavens!"
"Trillions of years ago, the Primordial Ancestor had already grown to a level surpassing his own, and was almost certain to break through the limits of the universe's strongest beings, becoming an unparalleled existence comparable to the creators of the two great holy lands!"
"If the Primordial Ancestor could do it, then you and Yinhe can too. So it's normal for the Divine Eye True Lord to be wary of you and Luo Feng. Maybe they won't be able to transcend reincarnation and will have to rely on you and Yinhe."
Giant Axe glanced at Zhou Ze and chuckled.
Zhou Ze said speechlessly, "Giant Axe, I feel that you have been wandering in the cosmic sea all these years, and you have a very poor understanding of human nature. Although you have lived for trillions of epochs, all you do is fight and take risks. You are very simple-minded."
"You're the first person to say I lack willpower," Giant Axe retorted, equally speechless. "If I lacked willpower, how could I possibly break through to become the strongest in the universe?"
Zhou Ze shook his head and said, "That's different..."
"How is it different?" Giant Axe asked.
Zhou Ze said calmly, "You have strong talent and comprehension, you break through quickly, and you are strong... but I think you have mistaken willpower for character."
"A strong character certainly indicates a strong will, but a strong will does not necessarily mean a good character. Perseverance, inner strength, and so on are only part of character."
"The scope of mind and nature is extremely broad, encompassing all aspects of the human heart, such as greed, anger, ignorance, pride, doubt, joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, love, hate, and so on. These all fall under the category of mind and nature."
"No life can exist without these. The so-called heart of a strong person is actually just a one-sided firm will. Of course, a firm will is crucial for breakthroughs in level, but it is too simplistic compared to the complexity of one's mind."
Giant Axe's face was blank for a moment, then clear for a moment, but in the end he felt it was extremely mysterious.
"You powerful figures standing at the top are actually just like Luo Feng, always maintaining a 'childlike heart' (i.e., a pure and innocent heart). You only pursue power but don't understand the mind, which is why Luo Feng has always had difficulty breaking through to the second level of mental state, and you haven't even been able to enter the first level."
The giant axe was utterly perplexed and immediately asked, "Holy Master, you said I'm the same as Luo Feng, but why was he able to enter the realm while I can't?"
Zhou Ze laughed and said, "That's because you're not as pure as Luo Feng, who has unified everything! You're always concerned about your clan, and you're always timid and hesitant. It would be a miracle if you could even enter the realm of mindfulness."
The giant axe said sheepishly, "There was nothing I could do. You have no idea how much pressure I was under after the Primordial Ancestor was suppressed by the Origin of the Universe. After finally breaking through to become the strongest in the universe, I couldn't find the ultimate treasure. I was almost depressed..."
The word "depression" coming from the giant axe's mouth made Zhou Ze feel a sense of incongruity. Of course, he knew that because of his own actions, many things on Earth, including but not limited to clothing, eating habits, and internet memes, had gradually spread throughout the human race.
"They're all just excuses..." Zhou Ze glanced at the giant axe and said, "Look at the Primordial Ancestor, he's been trapped by the primordial universe's will for trillions of years, and he's not depressed at all."
"Even his cultivation level has greatly improved, and his mental state has already reached the third level. What right do you have to make excuses? Do you think the Primordial Ancestor wasn't more concerned about the development of the race than you?"
The giant axe shook its head: "Holy Master, you're right!"
"Hmm." Zhou Ze nodded and didn't say anything more. As the number one person in the clan, Giant Axe held a top position, but in reality, he was quite similar to Tu Man after his revenge.
These past few years have really been tough on him. Even though his personal strength is enough to rival any powerful being in the universe, he has to bear the burden of an entire race, so it's impossible for him to do without using his brain.
Even with the Chaos City Lord helping him manage his clan, he still has to make the important decisions and take responsibility for them.
Now that Zhou Ze has risen to power, the giant axe is quite decisive. Just like when he entrusted the affairs of the Primordial Universe to the Lord of Chaos City, he has entrusted the affairs of the Cosmic Sea and even the entire race to Zhou Ze, letting Zhou Ze use his brain while he only needs to take action.
"Holy Master, where do we go now?" the giant axe asked. "Are we just going to wait here?"
"Let's wander around the void, so the Divine Eye Clan can find us," Zhou Ze said with a smile.
"That works too." The founder of the giant axe asked excitedly, "I wonder what supreme treasure they'll give us?"
"Anyway, it can't be a melee-type supreme treasure, and it can't be any other precious type either. It's either a supreme treasure armor or a supreme treasure of psychic power. It's most likely a supreme treasure of psychic power," Zhou Ze said casually.
As the Giant Axe Founder flew with Zhou Ze toward the void above the water, he nodded slightly: "That's true. Although melee-type supreme treasures are the least valuable among supreme treasures, it depends on the situation."
"In some ways, its offensive power is greater than that of other supreme treasures. Other supreme treasures can at most ensure one's own safety, but its offensive power can steadily overwhelm other powerful beings..."
"Moreover, offense is the best defense; by neutralizing the opponent's attacks, one indirectly strengthens one's own defense..."
Zhou Ze laughed and said, "It doesn't matter. I never expected to extort a supreme treasure. No matter what kind of supreme treasure it is, it's a huge profit!"
"Hmm..." The giant axe paused, as if remembering something, "So, why did the Divine Eye True Lord so easily agree to give us an extremely powerful treasure?"
