Breakthrough
That dark figure was none other than Shadow Erosion, a Special Lifeform that had a record of killing Intermediate Universe Venerable!
Without any unnecessary movements, the entire shadow coalesced into a black light, containing an extremely cold and eerie power, ignoring Qie Qiong's surface defenses and piercing deeply into Qie Qiong's back.
Innate Secret Technique: Soul-Eroding Devour.
This was precisely the method Shadow Erosion used to ambush and kill Intermediate Universe Venerable, and it was also its ultimate trump card.
This black light does not contain destructive force in a physical sense, but rather a kind of "erosion".
It can instantly erode the target's divine body.
That Venerable One had over 50% of his divine body instantly eroded by this sudden Innate Secret Technique, and subsequently, his entire divine body was annihilated in a rapid manner.
"Success!" Shadow Erosion was overjoyed, as if he could already see the powerful human Venerable's divine body collapsing.
Although this human overlord was powerful, it was not as strong as the divine body of the Alien Race Intermediate Universe Venerable it killed, and it was absolutely no match for his Innate Secret Techniques.
A hint of triumph flashed in the eyes of the Skeleton Overlord.
Fortunately, it delayed the appearance of Shadow Erosion, which allowed it to succeed. If it had allowed Shadow Erosion to appear at the same time, the sneak attack would never have succeeded.
If it couldn't have kept the Human Race 'Human Race Universe Overlord Universe Overlord before, it now has absolute confidence in keeping him.
That strange and precious treasure of the Human Race overlord is actually its skeleton.
Its claws lashed out even more fiercely, preparing to tear the Qie Qiong apart completely.
However, in the next instant, the expressions of Shadow Erosion and Skeleton Overlord froze simultaneously.
The imagined scene of the divine body being severely damaged and its aura plummeting did not occur.
The "Soul-Eroding Devour," which was powerful enough to instantly injure or even kill Intermediate Universe Venerable, encountered unprecedented resistance the moment it invaded the body of the Qie Qiong God.
The Annihilation Divine Power obtained from cultivating supreme techniques within Qie Qiong's divine body was like a boiling sea of stars.
The divine power brought by the Fourth Layer "Space-Time Destruction: Space Chapter" is essentially the ultimate "annihilation," a power that can even destroy precious treasures.
This allows Qie Qiong to be equivalent to a fully equipped Universe Overlord simply by relying on divine power.
The Shadow Erosion's innate, Innate Secret Technique, upon contact with this Annihilation Divine Power, was like ice and snow encountering a flame powerful enough to Burning Annihilation Stars.
Sizzle--!
The invading black light couldn't even penetrate one ten-millionth of the Qie Qiong Divine Body before being annihilated and reduced to nothingness by the spontaneously activated Annihilation Divine Power with overwhelming force.
Throughout the entire process, he couldn't even cause the slightest fluctuation in Qie Qiong's aura.
"Wh-what?!" Shadow Erosion's voice was instantly filled with horror and fear.
Its Innate Secret Techniques had absolutely no effect on the opponent?
What kind of monster is this?!
Just as Shadow Erosion lost his composure due to the failure of his Innate Secret Technique.
"Court death!"
Qie Qiong's voice was icy cold.
He didn't even turn around; with his left hand forming a sword shape, he pointed it at the shadow behind him.
"Die!"
A silver light, condensed to its extreme and capable of piercing through space itself, burst forth from the fingertip in an instant.
This is merely a simple application of the "Golden Light" secret technique, but the Annihilation Divine Power contained within is enough to kill a normal, Invincible King. This Shadow Erosion can kill Intermediate Universe Venerable, not because it has a particularly large divine body, but because it relies on its strange Innate Secret Technique.
Puff!
That glint of silver light pierced precisely through Shadow Erosion's Life Core.
Shadow Erosion's divine body was as fragile as paper before this terrifying spatial annihilation power.
"No, impossible—" Shadow Erosion murmured in disbelief.
Then, the entire shadow body vanished in the silver light, turning into ashes, leaving only its treasures behind.
When Qie Qiong first broke through, he wasted the two Invincible King because he couldn't control the Annihilation Divine Power. So he would definitely learn from his mistakes.
He casually put away its treasure; Qie Qiong didn't have time to look at these things right now.
The Special Lifeform "Shadow Erosion," which had dominated the edge of the Constant Sand Secret Region Realm for countless epochs and had successfully hunted down Universe Venerable, has now perished!
"What?!" The Skeleton Overlord was incredulous at the sight before him.
It should be noted that even a large divine body like this is wary of Shadow Erosion's Innate Secret Technique.
This Human Race overlord was strangely unharmed.
"You have a clone?!"
This is the most suitable reason it can think of.
However, the instant kill of Shadow Erosion was not the end; it was precisely this moment that gave Qie Qiong an opportunity for a breakthrough.
As Shadow Erosion's Innate Secret Technique invaded his body and was annihilated by his own Annihilation Divine Power, Qie Qiong's deepest understanding of the Gold Law, the Space Law, and the True Meaning of the "Extreme Point" of the Snow Eagle World —all of this—finally gained new insights at this moment.
Boom!
Qie Qiong's Sea of Consciousness seemed to explode into a nebula!
In the Snow Eagle World, the fusion of the Deity Heart of Space and the Deity Heart of Metal gave birth to the "True Meaning of Extreme Point," which rapidly pushed his previously incomprehensible secret technique of the fusion of Gold-Space to its limit.
A brand-new, Peak Secret Technique at the Universe Venerable level was born and took shape in his mind.
"So that's how it is. Using the Gold-Space as a blade, and annihilating the Extreme Point, this is the true path of the fusion of Gold-Space that belongs to me."
Qie Qiong's eyes suddenly burst forth with an incomparably dazzling silver light.
He stood still.
The "Dustfine" longsword in his hand emitted an unprecedentedly high-pitched sword cry, and the silver light on the sword collapsed and condensed inward.
It seemed to want to devour everything around it.
A power even more terrifying than the previous "Golden Light" erupted from the longsword "Dustfine"!
It seems to be the beginning before the creation of the universe, and also the end of all things.
"The Universe-Opening First Form, Abyssal Abyss!"
Qie Qiong let out a low shout, and the "Dustfine" sword in his hand slashed a silver sword light at the Skeleton Overlord.
Qie Qiong let out a low shout, and the "Dustfine" sword in his hand slashed a sword light towards the Skeleton Overlord.
The sword light left an almost imperceptible mark in the void.
Wherever the sword light passed, space itself was completely annihilated.
It seemed to transcend time and space, striking the massive divine body of the Skeleton Overlord.
The Skeleton Overlord's pupils contracted sharply the instant the sword light appeared.
A primal instinct, a perception of danger, instantly terrified its soul.
Its enormous divine body was rapidly being obliterated by the strange annihilating and penetrating power of the sword light.
"No!"
The Skeleton Overlord could only let out a desperate roar.
In just a fleeting moment!
The Skeleton Overlord of the Demon Race, who had just been so ferocious and domineering, vanished completely.
The Demon Race's Universe Overlord, the Skeleton Overlord, is dead!
All that remained was a void, a black hole tens of millions of kilometers in diameter, constantly collapsing.
No rules could be perceived within it; even space itself had been obliterated.
Qie Qiong sheathed his sword and stood silently, watching the chaotic scene of Space-Time he had created.
The "Dustfine" sword in his hand had cracks appearing on its blade. Top-Tier Heavy Treasure had long since reached its limit, having carried such a terrifying secret technique.
This precious treasure, which had been with him since he was King Rank, had also reached the end of his life.
