Desperate

"Kuang Xiao Master the Monster Race Clan, what gives you the courage to disregard the agreement made by the four clans and come to this Outer Region Battlefield to seek your presence?" Lord of Youhou silently took down the Top-tier True Treasure "Youhou Thorn" that he carried on his back and slowly asked.

As a newly ascended Universe Master the human race, Lord of Youhou has been extremely arrogant and domineering since his time Venerable, and is extremely skilled in killing and fighting. Although he is currently only at the first level of Universe Master, his actual combat strength is not bad. In comparison, his strength may be slightly inferior to that of the Kuang Xiao Master, but he is not as Kuang Xiao Master believed.

In the First Universe Era, the power of the Universe Master was divided into six tiers.

The first stage represents a nascent Universe Master, with Life Gene Level 100 times higher. They have not yet created Ultimate secret techniques, and their Supreme Treasure Weapon are also ordinary.

The second stage, with Life Gene Level 1000 times higher, created Ultimate secret technique, and the Supreme Treasure is not bad. It is considered "ordinary level".

The third tier is the "peak level," as exemplified by figures like Yan Di.

The fourth tier is the "top level," such as the Ice Peak Master, or the Lord of Galaxy did not use his ultimate move in the original work.

The fifth tier, the pinnacle of the pinnacle... This level Lord of Galaxy and City Lord of Chaos, generally involves either creating the Strongest Secret Technique or obtaining rare artifacts.

The sixth tier... This division did not exist in the Primal Universe. The sixth tier refers to the heaven-defying Universe Master possesses the Supreme True Treasure.

Upon hearing the question from Lord of Youhou, Kuang Xiao Master's eyes didn't even flicker. The question from a mere first-tier Universe Master wasn't worth his time. His immediate priority was to completely annihilate this minor World Lord and seize his Supreme Treasure, as well as his exceptionally talented grand-disciple.

"A mere first-tier little brat dares to question me? He truly can't see the situation clearly!" Kuang Xiao Master sneered. A first-tier Universe Master simply cannot survive in the Universe Ocean; he is basically at the bottom of the food chain. Although Kuang Xiao Master was severely injured by Ice Peak Master while fighting for the Supreme Treasure in the Universe Ocean, this has not affected his combat strength in the slightest.

Deep within the Fourth Star Sector Battlefield, two towering figures were locked in a fierce battle.

The Kuang Xiao Master wielded a long white staff, its surface adorned with intricate Secret Pattern that added to its regal appearance. He swung it downwards and horizontally, employing techniques that, regardless of the style, were the "Strongest Secret Technique the Universe Master." Moreover, in every exchange... the Kuang Xiao Master utterly failed to withstand the Lord of Youhou's "Youhou Thorn," trading blows entirely for damage!

The problem is that Lord of Youhou doesn't wear high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor like Kuang Xiao Master, which could reduce Lord of Youhou Thorn's attack power to one percent of its original value. This kind of bullying tactics, relying on treasures, is a natural counter to Lord of Youhou, a newly promoted Universe Master who lacks Supreme Treasure.

The Kuang Xiao Master brandished his Supreme Treasure long staff, unleashing an unparalleled aura that made the Lord of Youhou's expression grow increasingly grim. Compared to the Kuang Xiao Master, the Lord of Youhou was no weaker in secret techniques or Top-tier Supreme Treasure; the only difference lay in his basic and defensive Supreme Treasure Armor, which was why the Lord of Youhou was currently being relentlessly pursued. In terms of the fundamental level of life, the two Universe Masters were far inferior!

"Cut!"

As the situation gradually turned against him, Lord of Youhou smiled bitterly to himself. He tried his best to dodge every attack from Kuang Xiao Master and to make the intervals between each exchange as long as possible, so that he could buy more time. But how could a battle between the Universe Master be something that a weaker party like him could control? Not being crushed and suppressed was already a huge success.

"The newly ascended universe Universe Master the Primal Universe, the gap between us is incredibly obvious, isn't it? You absolutely cannot protect that little guy at the World Lord Level today." The Kuang Xiao Master spoke softly, yet his white staff seemed to cleave through the surrounding cosmic space, its sharpness fully revealed!

The long staff came whistling through the air, twisting space and time, easily dodging the Youhou Thorn controlled by the Lord of Youhou. At the same time, the top of the staff struck the Lord of Youhou's chest directly.

Without being blocked by Supreme Treasure Weapon, the full power of the Kuang Xiao Master's attack struck the Lord of Youhou's chest. Crack... The Lord of Youhou's Divine Body trembled, and even his chest shook violently. Then, cracks appeared on his Divine Body, and he was sent flying backward without any resistance.

Of course, before being sent flying backward, his Youhou Thorn also pierced towards the Kuang Xiao Master. However, it was a great pity that, weakened by the Kuang Xiao Master' high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor, the damage caused by the Lord of Youhou's attack was extremely limited.

"Bang!"

This strike produced an incredibly deep sound.

Although the Kuang Xiao Master was immediately affected by this attack, his Divine Body quickly recovered. He only paused slightly before continuing his attack.

Although both belong to the Universe Master, the difference in their basic strength is enormous!

"Hehehehehe..." Suddenly, a laugh with a slightly mechanical, static tone rang out.

At this moment, the Mingyuan Thunder Domain was in complete chaos, with everyone watching the contest between the two Universe Masters. Not even daring to breathe loudly, everyone understood that this battle might be the most exciting one they had ever witnessed! But the sudden burst of laughter was extremely jarring, and even the confrontation between the two Universe Masters could not conceal its distinctive character.

"Humans are really something, sending a first-tier little guy to guard this place! Don't they even use their brains to think about what a first-tier Universe Master should be doing right now!" A voice quietly appeared throughout the battlefield, and even the group of King-level Immortal watching from afar heard it.

A figure of Machine Race Universe Master Divine Body stretched for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, quietly appeared in the void of space.

"Since humanity has presented us with such a great gift, it would be a sin not to devour it! How about we, Kuang Xiao, join forces to annihilate this newly crowned Universe Master and present humanity with this grand gift?"

"Then why don't you make a move quickly?"

"Don't rush! Before I make my move, I have something more important to do." The Machine Race 'Universe Master, the Lord of Time-Machine, smiled slightly. Then, it turned its gaze to Lu Yan'an, who had been protected behind the Lord of Youhou and had already lost consciousness. "Compared to a first-tier Universe Master, this little guy is far more important."

A human capable of using illusions to affect soulless life forms poses a far greater threat to soulless beings like the Machine Race than a newly crowned Universe Master.

The latter merely enhances the race's foundation, far from threatening its safety! The former, however, is entirely different. Once this inheritance falls into human hands, it will be a devastating disaster for the Machine Race. As it spoke, its divine power surged, its target being Lu Yan'an, who had already lost consciousness and was floating in the void of space!

"Cooperating with your Machine Race is exactly what I want. I'll hold off on this newly promoted Universe Master for now. You should make your move quickly! After all, I still have a little grand-disciple who was suppressed by this human World Lord using his Supreme Treasure!" Upon hearing these words from the Lord of Time-Machine had quietly appeared before them, the expressions of the Kuang Xiao Master and the Lord of Youhou subtly changed.

The former, Kuang Xiao Master, wore a joyful expression, while his gaze towards the latter held a malicious intent. Meanwhile, the latter, Lord of Youhou, had his face darken. He saw absolutely no hope of victory in this battle! In fact, a single misstep could mean his own demise. Now, he could only frantically send out distress signals in the Virtual Universe.

The Lord of Time-Machine and the Kuang Xiao Master seemed to have noticed the Lord of Youhou's current predicament, but they showed him no mercy. Instead, after exchanging a glance, they launched their attacks simultaneously!
