Chapter 313 The True God Takes Action, the Mechanical Father God
The Lord of Chaos City was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses from the shock of the billion-kilometer-long divine body. His eyes were now full of solemnity as he looked at Xu Qing.
Such combat power and such a divine body cannot be defined by the words "Cosmic Venerable". He is clearly a true existence at the level of a Cosmic Lord!
"After countless billions of years, our human race has gained another ruler of the universe —"
Thinking of this, the Lord of Chaos City took a deep breath, suppressed his turbulent mind, and his surrounding domain expanded.
A token suddenly appeared in his palm and he handed it to Xu Qing: "Xu Qing, your breakthrough is a great joy for our human race. This is your reward for breaking through your realm, which is 101 Treasure Points."
"Did I hear that right? A reward of supreme treasure points? The city lord has just broken through to the Universe Venerable realm, and he's already this arrogant?"
"Not just Arcana Points, but 101 Arcana Points?!"
"Oh My God."
The moment the words fell, the cosmic venerables around them, who had not yet fully calmed down, were struck as if by lightning and instantly erupted into chaos!
Gasps of astonishment rose and fell, one after another, as many people stared in disbelief, their faces filled with unbelievable ecstasy and envy, their gazes so intense they seemed to melt the token in Xu Qing's hand.
The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom's eyes turned green with envy, his Adam's apple bobbing wildly as he stared intently at the token, his breathing becoming heavy and rapid.
He clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white, feeling a mix of sourness and itch in his heart.
As the ruler of the universe, he is the oldest cosmic venerable among humankind. Despite accumulating wealth over billions of years, he has never possessed a single supreme treasure; on the contrary, he owes several supreme treasures.
The assets that are owed are only worth 3 Treasure Points when converted to Treasure Points, but Xu Qing received 101 Treasure Points as a reward for advancing to the Universe Venerable.
How can the difference between people be so huge? Damn it.
"Just one Treasure Point can be exchanged for a real Treasure!"
A mid-level cosmic master murmured in a trembling voice, his voice filled with longing.
"I've cultivated diligently for billions of years and only have 0.3 Treasure Points left, yet he suddenly possesses 101 Treasure Points?"
The cosmic venerables looked at Xu Qing with complex expressions, their eyes filled with envy and a hint of jealousy.
Some of them have been stuck at the initial Venerable realm for hundreds of millions of years, unable to even obtain a single top-tier treasure. Xu Qing, on the other hand, has broken through to the same realm as them in just two years and has also acquired hundreds of supreme treasures. How could such an opportunity not drive people mad with envy?
Most of the cosmic venerables are junior or intermediate venerables.
Among the high-ranking venerables of the universe, only a very small number occasionally possess a supreme treasure, while those of intermediate and low-ranking status almost never possess any supreme treasure.
Treasures are usually possessed only by the most powerful beings in the universe.
Even the wealth of the universe's overlords is probably not as substantial as Xu Qing's current fortune.
"Tsk tsk, the city lord's generosity." A venerable one suppressed the sourness in his heart and sighed softly.
"A hundred supreme treasures! Even a newly promoted Universe Lord might not have such a fortune. Venerable Xu Qing has ascended to the heavens in one step, directly possessing wealth that others couldn't earn in countless hours!"
Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, the jealousy in everyone's hearts intensified.
The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom stared wide-eyed, but could only feign composure, gritting his teeth and trying to comfort himself.
Lord Xu Qing has a treasure to make money from, which means I have a treasure to make money from too. I just need to manage the liquor company well.
The Lord of Chaos City was increasingly impressed by Xu Qing's composure, and then fell into deep thought: Earth access rights—should we return them now?
The teacher had specifically instructed that once Xu Qing became the master of the universe, he should return the authority over Earth.
At that time, although he valued Xu Qing's talent, he only estimated that he could break through to the Universe Venerable in ten thousand years at most, and becoming the Lord of the Universe in ten million years would be the limit.
After all, in the more than two hundred trillion years of human history, only 18 universe lords have been born, each of whom is an unparalleled powerhouse that is only seen once every trillion years.
This is still because the human race's top combat power far surpasses that of other races. Even among the top races such as the machine race and the insect race, the number of universe masters is far less than that of the human race.
But who could have imagined that in just two years, Xu Qing would directly possess the combat power of a universe master? This speed was so fast that even he was caught off guard.
Earth, as the habitat of the race honed by the Mountain Dwellers, must have extraordinary potential. He originally wanted to explore it further, but if Xu Qing were to ask for it now, with his current strength, should he give it to him or not?
If we don't give it to him, what if Xu Qing harbors resentment and repeats the mistakes of Emperor Yan?
Leaving aside the risk of offending the Mountain Guest, the loss of a peerless genius who is almost certain to become a true god in the future would be a huge loss for the human race, and it would be a loss that does not outweigh the gains.
A true god, even within the primordial universe, is equivalent to ten fourth-order universe lords, let alone in the cosmic sea.
Even the exceptionally talented Lord of Chaos City was not 100% certain that he could break through to the True God realm.
As the Lord of Chaos City was pondering, Xu Qing spoke up: "Lord, I plan to go to the secret realm of the universe to train and hone my combat skills."
"However, before that, I have a request. I would be grateful if the city lord could replace me as the guide for this genius battle."
"A genius battle guide?"
The Lord of Chaos City was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening.
Every battle of geniuses and battle of the strong is presided over by a Venerable from the Virtual Universe Company. Whoever presides over the battle will be the one whose geniuses will later be promoted to immortality and will be placed under the command of that Venerable.
Otherwise, given his status, why would a venerable figure specifically escort a group of newcomers?
After a moment's thought, he remembered that three of the top ten in this genius battle were humans from Xu Qing's hometown, Earth.
Given this coincidence, it's no wonder Xu Qing made this request.
The Lord of Chaos City pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Very well. You are now a Universe Venerable, and you are qualified to serve as the guide and host. I will arrange this immediately."
As for the original guide, the Nine Swords Venerable, he had long since forgotten about him.
For a mere high-level cosmic venerable, the matter of guiding someone is a trivial matter. Even if the Nine Swords Venerable knew this, he would never utter a single complaint.
For the Lord of Chaos City, this was nothing more than a small favor; he could do Xu Qing a favor, so why not?
Xu Qing nodded slightly, said no more, and the space around him distorted slightly before his figure disappeared from the spot in an instant.
Gazing in the direction he had left, the Lord of Chaos City had a complex expression: "My junior brother's future achievements are probably terrifying—perhaps it's time to return the Earth access privileges as soon as possible."
But considering Earth's unique characteristics and Xu Qing's ridiculously extraordinary talent, he couldn't help but hesitate: "Let's explore Earth's potential first. The first batch of newborns on Earth haven't even grown up yet; they've only just been born. Let's wait a thousand years, a thousand years from now."
It couldn't possibly be that Xu Qing broke through to the Universe Lord level so quickly, could he possibly advance another step within a thousand years? The Chaos City Lord secretly comforted himself, but even he himself wasn't sure.
The news of Xu Qing's breakthrough spread throughout the entire universe.
After all, he didn't try to hide it much, and he broke through in Chaos City, a place with countless human elites.
This also alerted other races —
Deep within the demon realm, a palace floats in the endless starry sky, surrounded by flames—balls of black, white, purple, red, green, and blue—each the size of a star, swirling around the palace.
If you're far away, you simply can't see any of this.
Clearly, the spacetime around the palace has been distorted, forming its own separate spacetime.
The floating palace is shaped like solidified flames. The palace is silent and deathly still. In the huge square in front of the palace, a hazy light and shadow appeared out of thin air and then condensed into a blue wolf that is more than ten kilometers long.
"Leader." The blue wolf bowed respectfully.
The palace, frozen in flames, suddenly had its eye-like carvings blink, and the entire palace emitted a thunderous sound: "Speak your mind."
"Leader, I have just received intelligence that Xu Qing has broken through to the Universe Venerable level!" The Azure Sky Wolf lay prostrate on the ground, its body, which was thousands of kilometers long, trembling slightly, its tone filled with undisguised horror.
"What did you say?!"
The booming sound suddenly rose in pitch, like thunder exploding from the heavens. The entire fiery palace trembled violently, and the surrounding strange fire instantly went berserk. Dozens of star-sized flames shattered and turned into a rain of fire.
The giant eye sculpture in the palace suddenly shone brightly, radiating a chilling aura and an incredulous rage: "Only two years! Jumped from the cosmic level to the cosmic venerable? How could such a monster emerge from the human race!"
The Azure Wolf dared not raise its head, gritting its teeth as it added, "Even more astonishing is that the Chaos City Lord, to celebrate his breakthrough, rewarded him with 101 Treasure Points, a full 101 Treasures! This is even higher than the bounty our clan previously offered to kill him!"
"101 treasures?!"
The roar of the fiery palace froze instantly. The next second, a terrifying pressure swept out, almost causing the distorted spacetime around it to collapse.
A glint of greed and murderous intent flashed in the giant eyes, and the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf's voice carried suppressed excitement: "What a grand gesture from the human race! The Lord of Chaos City is openly paving the way for Xu Qing, but he's also giving me an immense opportunity!"
"This child's rise is too heaven-defying. He already has the combat power of a Universe Venerable. If given more time, he may really step into the realm of True God! The human race is already full of strong people. If we add such a monstrous talent, it will be even more devastating."
"Moreover—101 supreme treasures! Even I, a cosmic lord, probably don't have much more wealth than that."
.
The Lord of Sirius's voice turned sinister.
"How can a mere newly promoted Universe Venerable possess so many supreme treasures? He's going to guide human geniuses? Fine! We'll ambush him on his way while he's just broken through and distracted protecting those good-for-nothings!"
The blue-green wolf was shocked upon hearing this.
"My lord, are you going to take action yourself?!"
The Lord of Sirius, the supreme being of the demon race, is actually going to personally deal with a newly breakthrough Universe Venerable?!
"Not only will I take action, but I will also join forces with other universe lords to take action!"
"Xu Qing must not be allowed to live!"
Before he could finish speaking...
Suddenly—around this floating palace, clusters of star-sized flames began to fly rapidly toward the palace. Each flame quickly compressed and shrank as it approached the palace, turning into tiny flames that rapidly merged into the solidified flame sculptures within the palace. Once merged, the entire palace's aura began to grow stronger.
In just a moment, all the countless flames of various colors around the palace disappeared, while the solidified flame carvings on the palace itself were faintly surrounded by flames.
"This is a treasure." The Azure Sky Wolf thought to himself with envy.
This palace—the Sirius Palace, the greatest treasure of the entire Sirius Clan—was a treasure obtained by the Lord of Sirius shortly after the birth of the universe.
"I'm going."
The entire palace vanished into thin air.
Within a human kingdom of gods, a palace of flames appeared out of thin air, the strange fire churning ever more violently, and the whispers of the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf carried a chilling killing intent.
"Xu Qing—your life, and your most precious treasure, are mine!"
And not just the Lord of Sirius.
The Zerg and Mech races have countless spies in the territory of the Terrans.
Even the immortals within their own race can enslave immortal gods, and the divine kingdom can be directly teleported to the human race. This is a perfectly normal thing for the supreme cosmic lord.
Faced with the temptation of hundreds of treasures, Xu Qing's terrifying talent, and the terrifying threat of being able to transform their clan's strongmen into human combat power, they were also tempted by the allure of hundreds of treasures.
The deaths of a few immortal spies are nothing to the lords of the universe.
Among the three major hostile races of humanity, several cosmic lords have joined forces. The Lord of the Heavenly Wolf and the Lord of the Nether Demon of the Demon Race have arrived, and the Lord of the Nether Lotus of the Insect Race is also rushing over.
Although the Zerg universe masters are few in number, each one is at the pinnacle, proficient in soul illusions and material attacks, making them extremely difficult to deal with!
"Boom—!"
The universe collapsed with a deafening roar, and the flow of spatial particles surged like a raging torrent. A dark golden mother hive forced its way into the divine kingdom, its overwhelming pressure nearly crushing it! The mother hive was surrounded by a thousand top-tier cosmic overlord-level Zerg warriors, whose power was rampant to the extreme under the control of the Lord of the Nether Lotus.
The Lord of the Nether Lotus has a slender and voluptuous figure, and her beauty is breathtaking. Her soul fluctuations are enough to make even an immortal king intoxicated.
She glanced at the Lord of Sirius and the Lord of the Netherworld, frowning, and asked, "Where is the Mechanical Race? Have you not contacted them, or are they simply not coming to help?"
"Perhaps they don't want to. After all, they are metallic life forms, so maybe they're not afraid of being eaten." The Lord of Sirius shook his head.
"Who says the Machine Race isn't coming?"
The words had barely left his mouth when, "Buzz—!"
A powerful will descended across endless time and space, violently distorting the surrounding space. An oval-shaped black sphere suddenly appeared, its surface flowing with a cold metallic luster. An aura of pressure that surpassed all living beings instantly enveloped the divine kingdom!
The entire divine kingdom collapsed instantly, and the Heavenly Wolf Palace and the Treasure Mother Nest also trembled.
The Lord of Sirius cried out in shock, his voice filled with utter terror: "It's you? The Mechanical Father God?!"
