"Human, who are you!?" the Skeleton Overlord asked in surprise.

It actually doesn't have any information about this Human Race?

It's important to understand that reaching the level of Universe Overlord means being among the strongest individuals in one's own race.

This level of Universe Overlord in the Hongmeng Alliance, and an expert of this level would easily rank in the top one hundred of any race.

This is still the Human Race, a top-tier race.

It doesn't even have this kind of intelligence about Human Race?

It retracted its "Star-Shattering Claw" and stared intently at the human in front of it, who was wearing silver-gold armor.

"Qie Qiong Dustfine blade," his longsword pointing directly at the Skeleton Overlord.

He slightly raised his head, his gaze calmly meeting the scrutinizing gaze of the Skeleton Overlord. His voice was flat and even, yet it rang out clearly in the chaotic battlefield. "Sorry, this path is blocked."

The entire battlefield fell into a brief silence.

The Venerable Shadow Snake's ecstasy froze on his face, his serpentine pupils contracted, and he stared at Qie Qiong in disbelief.

He actually managed to stop the Skeleton Overlord!

And they seem evenly matched?

The Venerable Rock Armor was shocked, and his heart sank.

He had initially thought the silver-gold figure was just a High Venerable, but he never expected it to be a Universe Overlord.

This variable is just too big!

Venerable Star Demon and Venerable Rock Axe were greatly encouraged. Seizing the moment when Venerable Rock Armor was distracted, Stone Axe unleashed an even more ferocious attack. "Hahaha, good! Venerable, excellent technique!"

Especially Star Demon, only now did he realize how right it was to invite Qie Qiong.

Even if Qie Qiong eventually received the news and came, it would be too late.

Even if the two of them manage to escape in the end, Venerable Thousand Illusions is destined to perish here.

The look of shock in Venerable Thousand Illusions' eyes had not yet completely faded.

She looked at the figure blocking her way, and for the first time, her usually cold voice carried a subtle change in tone. "Thank you, Venerable One."

Qie Qiong didn't turn around, but simply waved his hand casually, indicating that it wasn't important.

His attention was completely focused on the Skeleton Overlord opposite him.

"Who are you? I didn't expect to find such a powerful figure in this secret realm." The Skeleton Overlord's voice was filled with curiosity.

When did someone like you appear among humanity?

He wasn't worried about failing, since the Universe Overlord opposite him used Top-Tier Heavy Treasure for Supreme Treasure, so his defensive treasures couldn't possibly be that high-level either.

It's definitely just a strange, top-tier Domain Type treasure. As for why it's not Supreme Treasure, well, if it Supreme Treasure, things wouldn't be like this.

As for why we're not worried about failure, it's the same old story: the human body is simply too small.

Its curiosity stemmed from the fact that a Universe Overlord had been completely silent about this beforehand.

Qie Qiong did not answer the skeleton's question, but instead, without turning his head, he gave a deep order to the Human Race camp behind him, "Star Demon, Pan Fu,

"Thousand Illusions, take all the King Rank and immediately leave this place at least ten light-years away. Hand this person over to me."

His voice wasn't loud, but Venerable Star Demon and the others instantly teleported away with the King Rank.

They also knew that Qie Qiong was doing this for their own good. The aftershocks of the battle between the two Universe Overlords could cause great losses to Intermediate Universe Venerable. Moreover, who didn't know that the other Universe Overlord might strike at any moment?

Then you're in for a rough time.

As for why they didn't go into the secret realm, it was naturally because of the treasures.

If they go in now, how will they divide the treasure if they find it? You might say it belongs to whoever gets it, but those two outside won't agree to that.

"Let's go." Without hesitation, the Venerable Star Demon teleported away with the King Rank. "Venerable One, be careful!"

Venerable Rock Axe also understood that the overall situation was of paramount importance at this moment, and followed closely behind Star Demon.

The Venerable Thousand Illusions gazed deeply at Qie Qiong's retreating figure, his own ethereal form merging into the space around him.

Almost simultaneously, the Skeleton Overlord roared, "Rock Armor, Shadow Serpent! You two leave too, I'll take care of this place."

"Yes, Lord Skeleton!" Venerable Rock Armor and Venerable Shadow Snake immediately led the Demon Race's King Rank team, transforming into two streams of Flowing Light, closely following the Human Race, and left the battlefield.

In an instant, only two figures remained facing each other on the once noisy battlefield.

A human venerable one clad in silver and gold armor, and Demon Race Skeleton Overlord with a colossal divine body.

"Hmph, I'd like to see how many moves your insignificant divine body can withstand!" The Skeleton Overlord launched the first attack.

Its massive body unleashed terrifying speed, and the High-grade Supreme Treasure "Star-Shattering Claw" on its right claw lit up once more, gathering unparalleled power that tore through Space-Splitting, and fiercely grabbed at Qie Qiong.

Before the claws even arrived, the power within them had already frozen the space around Qie Qiong inch by inch.

Qie Qiong's eyes narrowed slightly, but there was no trace of fear in them.

As early as when he was cultivating "Space-Time Destruction: Space Chapter", he discovered that although his divine body was small, in addition to granting him the power of annihilation, the ultimate technique also made his divine power recovery ability astonishingly fast.

Therefore, he was not afraid to compete with these beings of great divine size in terms of divine power.

The Top-Tier Heavy Treasure sword "Dustfine" in his hand emitted a clear and melodious sword cry, its blade shimmering with silver light, as if it contained the power to shatter the heavens.

"Golden Light."

He thrust out his sword, the silver sword light directly meeting the Star-Shattering Claw head-on.

The silver sword light, condensed to its extreme, possessed the quality of annihilating space, and slammed fiercely into the Supreme Treasure"Star-Shattering Claw".

The Skeleton Overlord felt a strange, dissolving energy penetrate its claws, causing the power within its claw, which was enough to kill an Intermediate Universe Venerable, to be slowly dissolved.

"What a bizarre treasure of the domain." The Skeleton Overlord was even more shocked, realizing that it seemed to have underestimated the strength of this human overlord.

"Again!" The Skeleton Overlord's ferocity was fully unleashed; it held nothing back and burned with divine power.

Its already terrifying aura surged once more. It unleashed both claws simultaneously, combining its massive body to unleash its signature technique – the "Shatter-Star Rift-Space Claw."

The countless claw shadows blocked all of Qie Qiong's escape routes, each claw containing the power to tear apart High Venerable.

The pressure on Qie Qiong increased sharply.

His figure weaved through the countless claw shadows, like a small boat on water. The "Dustfine" sword in his hand danced, and streaks of silver sword light, like swimming dragons, constantly stabbed, slashed, parried, and blocked, the annihilating power continuously offsetting the claw force of the Skeleton Overlord.

Each collision unleashed terrifying shockwaves that shattered galaxies, causing cracks to appear continuously in this void.

Both sides are constantly depleting their divine power.

Just as Qie Qiong was fully focused on dealing with the Skeleton Overlord's attack--

A shadow that almost completely merged into the space seemed to emerge from nothingness, moving at a speed that surpassed even the perception of Venerable Qie Qiong.

He Qie Qiong thrust at Qieqiong.

Its timing was incredibly cunning, Qie Qiong parried a skeletal claw, creating a sliver of an opening.
