Devotion to Art

Above the canyon, Xiao Jiu's enormous body stood like a divine mountain, and Xu Qing stood atop it, looking down at the Universe Venerable.

"Looks like this guy is a stutterer and an idiot. Xiao Jiu, kill him," Xu Qing said, looking disgusted at the man who was stunned.

"Yes, Elder Brother," Xiao Jiu had long wanted to start the killing.

The next second, Xiao Jiu opened its mouth and exhaled icy breath, instantly freezing the entire area within a radius of hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

The entire canyon instantly transformed into a frozen world.

The Universe Venerable didn't even have time to escape before being turned into an ice sculpture. Although he was protected by a high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor and didn't die instantly, he was like a turtle in a jar, not far from death.

"Why? Why would the Universe Master call him Elder Brother?" That Universe Venerable was still pondering this question until his death.

Snap!

The ice sculpture shattered, the divine body of that Universe Venerable was completely annihilated, the high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor fell to the ground, and so did the World Ring.

The World Ring of those people were all destroyed, and their items fell out.

Xu Qing picked up the top-tier Supreme Treasure Armor and the World Ring, glanced at them, and said, "Two precious treasures, not bad."

A Universe Venerable being provided him with one High-grade Supreme Treasure and two other precious treasures is already quite generous.

"Let's go, let's flip over the belly of the next fish," Xu Qing pointed in another direction.

Xiao Jiu immediately carried Xu Qing in that direction.

A dozen minutes later, another Universe Venerable divine body was annihilated, leaving behind a High-grade Supreme Treasure and several other important treasures.

In just one day, Xu Qing had killed dozens of Universe Venerable, acquired Supreme Treasure ten supreme treasures and more than thirty major treasures, making a small fortune.

And on this Primitive Star, there are many Universe Venerable, all of them fat, pot-bellied fish.

"Next, let's use this bunch of Universe Venerable as our nest. Feel proud of your sacrifice. Uncle Little Azure Dragon will remember your sacrifice," Xu Qing and Xiao Cai had already targeted several clustered Universe Venerable.

Those few Universe Venerable seem to be from a top-tier race, the Crystal Race.

Both the Crystal Race and the Prison Race are top-tier races with the Supreme Universe Being, but they are not mortal enemies of the Human Race, unlike the Monster Race, the Zerg, and the Automaton Race, who are constantly at war.

However, now that we've arrived on the Primitive Star, everyone except our own allies is an enemy, so there's not much to say.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The glowing arrows shot out and disappeared instantly; Xu Qing and Xiao Cai then fired again in rapid succession.

A few seconds later, all the Universe Venerable of the Crystal Race ascended to heaven, leaving behind their belongings.

Similarly, the enormous commotion attracted the attention of the surrounding Universe Venerable.

Before long, they became Xu Qing's targets, and he rewarded them all with an arrow.

Boom boom boom!

Explosions rang out continuously, and one after another, Universe Venerable ascended to heaven on the spot. Only those who possessed Top-tier Supreme Treasure to protect them could escape their inevitable demise.

"Damn it! Who is it?!" Among those Universe Venerable on their way was a Universe Overlord.

This Universe Overlord was covered in dust and his face was gloomy. He had almost lost half his life to Xu Qing's arrow. If it weren't for his own strength and the protection of Top-tier Supreme Treasure, he would probably have already lost a lot of his divine body.

"Hey, there's an even bigger fish mixed in with the big one. Let's go say hello to him," Xu Qing said in surprise, then laughed.

"Universe Overlord? He'll die too," Xiao Jiu laughed, and quickly headed there.

Before long, Xu Qing and Xiao Jiu met the Universe Overlord.

The Universe Overlord also saw Xu Qing and Xiao Jiu, and his eyes widened in shock, "Universe Master!"

"You've come to see the Universe Master, why aren't you kneeling down yet!" Xu Qing looked down at the other party.

"You are... the Azure Dragon Venerable!" The Universe Overlord was shocked. What kind of combination was this?

"Hmph, my Elder Brother told you to kneel down, did you hear me? Kneel down now!" Xiao Jiu snorted coldly, and the pressure of a top-tier Universe Master descended.

The Universe Overlord immediately bent over, trembling all over, unable to even lift his head.

"Top-tier... Universe Master! How is this possible?" The Universe Overlord gritted his teeth, refusing to kneel down.

However, he was ultimately just a Universe Overlord, able to stand firm against the pressure of an ordinary Universe Master, but Xiao Jiu was no ordinary Universe Master.

In fact, if Xiao Jiu directly Control of Space-Time, a Universe Overlord would be instantly annihilated by the power of spacetime, no matter where on the Primitive Star.

However, Xiao Jiu was too lazy to do that, since the other party couldn't escape anyway.

Thump!

The Universe Overlord immediately knelt on the ground, letting out a low growl, "I am a member of the North Border Alliance, you can't treat me like this!"

"Tch, what North Border Alliance, Southern Frontier Alliance, they're nothing," Xu Qing sneered. "Go ahead and self-destruct. You're going to die anyway, might as well die spectacularly."

What!

The Universe Overlord suddenly looked up at Xu Qing, his eyes bloodshot, "Azure Dragon Venerable, do you dare to fight me one-on-one?"

"Sorry, but my favorite thing to do is say no to people. You want to fight me one-on-one? Dream on! Not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry wants to fight me one-on-one."

"See this? This is my little brother. If you can beat him, I'll fight you one-on-one," Xu Qing said, pointing at Xiao Jiu.

"You..." The Universe Overlord was so angry he could barely speak.

The Universe Master is your underling? Why don't you just say you're the Supreme Universe Being?

He preferred to believe that this Universe Master was working with Xu Qing rather than that the other party was Xu Qing's underling.

"That's right, if you want to challenge my Elder Brother, you'll have to beat me first. Come on, I'll let you make the first move, I'll let you hit me while I'm standing here," Xiao Jiu said mockingly.

"Then release your pressure first," the Universe Overlord said.

"No, it's more visually appealing to watch you fight while kneeling like that, right, Elder Brother?" Xiao Jiu refused.

Xu Qing nodded. "That's right, it's definitely more entertaining this way. I'm waiting to see you tickle Xiao Jiu. Hurry up and get moving."

"A scholar can be killed but not humiliated! I'll fight you to the death!" The Universe Overlord was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode.

The two of them were deliberately humiliating and tormenting him, and he couldn't take it anymore, so he self-destructed his divine body.

Boom!

A Universe Overlord self-destructed, unleashing a devastating surge of divine power, but it had absolutely no effect on Xu Qing and Xiao Jiu.

"Not bad, the power of this self-destruction is not bad. No, it feels like a waste to let him self-destruct like this. Next time we encounter Universe Overlord, we should just capture him and let him self-destruct in a crowd. That would be more fun," Xu Qing said, rubbing his chin.

Xiao Jiu's lips twitched. It had to be its Elder Brother; he immediately came up with a fun way to torture someone.

"I almost asked him what his name was, but oh well, he's just a noob anyway. Considering he contributed two High-grade Supreme Treasure to me, he's a decent noob," Xu Qing said, picking up his spoils.

Besides that high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor, the opponent also possessed a high-grade Supreme Treasure weapon.

As a Universe Overlord, possessing two or three Supreme Treasure is quite normal; he is neither poor nor rich.

"Continue!" Xu Qing and Xiao Jiu left.

Next, one by one, the Universe Venerable will be sniped from a great distance. Those who escape will be directly confronted by Xu Qing and Xiao Jiu.

"Azure Dragon Venerable, you demon!" A roar rang out.

Boom!

Immediately following was the sound of an explosion.

"Sigh, why bother? We could have discussed it further," Xu Qing sighed, looking at the large pit in front of him.

Just now, a Universe Venerable, upon learning that Xu Qing wanted him to be a human bomb to blow up others, chose to self-destruct, vowing to die rather than comply.

"Elder Brother, once you reach the level of Universe Venerable, it's no longer possible to directly influence their will," Xiao Jiu said.

Once you reach the level of Universe Venerable, it's practically impossible for your soul to be enslaved. Even when facing the Universe Master, you have ample time to self-destruct your divine body.

"It seems so. It looks like using the Universe Overlord as a human bomb won't work either," Xu Qing had no choice but to abandon his idea.

He could only force them to self-destruct, but he couldn't make them act as human bombs.

"It's okay. Even if they can't be human bombs, we can still have fun with them. We can just treat them like firecrackers. It's nice to watch the fireworks and hear the bang," Xu Qing shrugged.

Xiao Jiu felt sorry for those Universe Venerable; they were all about to suffer misfortune.

Six months later, Xu Qing had wiped out all the Alien Race Universe Venerable on the entire Primitive Star.

Correspondingly, Xu Qing acquired over six hundred valuable treasures and over one hundred Supreme Treasure. Although they were mostly ordinary and High-grade Supreme Treasure, the quantity was astonishing.

"Elder Brother, the fish on this Primitive Star are all gone. There are only a dozen or so treasures that have been discovered, but not a single supreme Supreme Treasure. Shouldn't we leave here and head to the next Primitive Star?" Xiao Jiu asked.

"Okay, that's about it. Let's go to the next Primitive Star," Xu Qing nodded.

The next star, the Primitive Star, was also randomly selected by Xu Qing.

These more than 10,000 Primitive Star are all specially numbered, which is also to facilitate the travel and treasure hunting of powerful individuals from various races.

After all, if a Top-tier Supreme Treasure were to appear, the powerful figures from all factions would immediately call upon their allies, and even the Universe Master would appear.

The second Primitive Star that Xu Qing and Xiao Jiu arrived at was numbered 03344.

"Let me see how many fish are on this Primitive Star?" Xu Qing immediately reviewed the situation of the Primitive Star.

Compared to the previous Primitive Star, this Primitive Star has more Universe Venerable.

For Xu Qing, the more people the better, no, the more fish the better.

"Let's get started! Fish, wait here, Uncle Little Azure Dragon is here to turn you belly up!" Xu Qing raised the Eight God Bow, and four arrows materialized.

This time, Xiao Cai wasn't there; he told Xiao Cai to go back and stay there, and that he could play by himself.

Call out!

The arrow shot out and disappeared into the horizon.

Rumble!

A violent explosion rang out, and the entire squad of four Universe Venerable was wiped out.

"Such a commotion! A treasure has been unearthed!" Sensing the commotion, the nearby Universe Venerable rushed over.

Little did they know, they had all fallen into a trap and were now being targeted by Xu Qing; a symphony of death was about to begin.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Rows of glowing arrows shot out in unison, locking onto each and every Universe Venerable.

At the same time as the explosion rang out, shouts rang out, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Okay, okay, I heard you, I heard you. No need to shout so loudly. Anyway, not many people are alive," Xu Qing muttered as he looked at the few Universe Venerable who had survived thanks to the protection of High-grade Supreme Treasure.

Then, as usual, Xu Qing went to collect the spoils of war, and then went to find the guys who had run away, forcing them to self-destruct.

"Azure Dragon Venerable, you devil!"

"Azure Dragon Venerable, you will get your retribution!"

"Azure Dragon Venerable, I will haunt you even as a ghost!"

From that day on, one after another, the Universe Venerable were forced to self-destruct by Xu Qing. Before their self-destruction, they would all shout out a phrase.

"Shout, shout, no matter how loud you shout, even if you shout until your throats are hoarse, you'll still have to self-destruct. You're sacrificing yourselves for art, you should be proud," Xu Qing said seriously.

Those Universe Venerable were even angrier upon hearing his words, which amplified the power of their self-destruction.

Time passed day by day, and not long after the Primitive Star was opened, a large number of Universe Venerable perished.

"What's going on? How many people have died in such a short time? We've already lost over thirty Universe Venerable here, some of whom didn't even get to send out a distress signal."

"And then there's that Azure Dragon Venerable, who likes to rob people first, then force them to kneel, and then self-destruct. He's a complete freak!" People from all the major alliances have noticed this.

Compared to those who died quickly and couldn't even send out a distress signal, those Universe Venerable who encountered the Azure Dragon Venerable, were humiliated, and forced to self-destruct were truly miserable.

"Furthermore, it is said that the Azure Dragon Venerable rides a giant whale, which is Special Lifeform, the Nine-Colored Cold Whale. According to unreliable sources, that Nine-Colored Cold Whale seems to be a Universe Master!"

"Could it be the one from the Ancestral God Secret Region? I remember that one in the Ancestral God Secret Region is only at the Universe Venerable level!"

"That's the one, I went to check, it's gone now!"

"That Nine-Colored Cold Whale was not only taken away by the Azure Dragon Venerable, but it also broke through its limits. Isn't that outrageous?"

"No way, he really is the Universe Master? Who can possibly subdue him? With a Nine-Colored Cold Whale of the Universe Master level following him, he'll be able to roam freely on the Primitive Star!"

"Could we ask the Universe Master to handle this and drive out that Nine-Colored Cold Whale that's at the Universe Master level? Otherwise, how are the others supposed to play?"

"The Nine-Colored Cold Whale, at the level of Universe Master, is definitely at the level of a top-tier Universe Master. Unless one is the Supreme Universe Being, who could possibly drive it away?"

"Isn't this the end? We've encountered the Azure Dragon Venerable, do we think we can escape?"

The major powers in the universe are having a real headache; the opening of the Primitive Star this time is just too bizarre.

Not only did his subordinate, the Universe Venerable, die inexplicably, but there was also the Azure Dragon Venerable rode a giant whale and robbed people everywhere. His giant whale was the Universe Master and Special Lifeform, the Nine-Colored Cold Whale.

Logically speaking, as the Universe Master, he should at least have some dignity; how could he possibly bully the weak?

But here's the absurd part: that Nine-Colored Cold Whale called the Azure Dragon Venerable Elder Brother" and was also his top War General. It said it itself, and many people know that.

A Universe Master, or even Special Lifeform defying the heavens, insists on being a subordinate and mount of a Universe Overlord. Tell me, isn't that infuriating? Aren't you envious?
