Chapter 392

In the Mechanical Clan's territory, within the Father Secret Realm.

As the Cosmic Lord of the Mechanical Clan, Blackscale Lord always kept a divine power avatar within this Father Secret Realm.

Among the countless species of the Original Universe, apart from the humans' unique Virtual Universe, the Mechanical Clan's communication system was undoubtedly the fastest and most convenient.

So the moment Blackscale Lord sent out his distress signal, many Cosmic Lords of the Mechanical Clan received the message.

"Ballscale's distress signal?"

"Ballscale actually fought the Human Clan's Wanjie Zhi Zhu—and lost?"

"How is that possible? That Wanjie Zhi Zhu just broke through not long ago!"

Thinking of this, the many Cosmic Lords of the Mechanical Clan immediately gathered within the space of the Mechanical Clan's virtual world.

At this moment, the many Cosmic Lords of the Mechanical Clan had assembled together, including Qingtian Lord and Huicang Lord, who had previously joined others in attacking Lu Qingshan.

"Ballscale!"

The Mechanical Clan's Father God soon spoke in a deep voice: "You're saying you encountered the Human Clan's Wanjie Zhi Zhu—and were in danger?"

"Yes, Father God!"

Blackscale Lord quickly said: "That Wanjie Zhi Zhu has elevated the God-Slaying Formation Diagram he obtained from that Original Star to the peak level of a top-tier domain treasure, and has even created a Cosmic Lord Ultimate Technique!"

"Though his life gene level is slightly lower than mine, in battle he can already suppress me!"

"I can still hold out for now, but that Wanjie Zhi Zhu previously exhausted the Snow Heaven Palace's main battle avatar with his astonishing divine power reserves—and now he's fighting me with a strategy of trading damage for damage. I fear I won't last long!"

"I never expected the Human Clan's Wanjie Zhi Zhu to grow this fast!"

"Indeed! How long has it been since that Wanjie Zhi Zhu broke through, and he's already created a Cosmic Lord Ultimate Technique?"

After hearing Blackscale Lord's words, the many Cosmic Lords of the Mechanical Clan were all astonished.

"This Wanjie Zhi Zhu is truly not to be underestimated!"

The Mechanical Clan's Father God quickly turned to several powerful Cosmic Lords within his clan and said: "Since he has elevated the God-Slaying Formation Diagram to the peak level of a top-tier domain treasure, to rescue Blackscale quickly, one of you must go!"

The Mechanical Clan's Father God had no intention of personally rescuing Blackscale Lord.

First, his true body was still roaming the Cosmic Sea; the one left in the Original Universe was merely a divine power avatar, and returning would take time.

Second, as the strongest being in the universe, his intervention would mean escalating the conflict—perhaps even drawing out the Human Clan's Axe Creator.

"I'll go!"

Upon hearing the Father God's words, Wan Shen Zhi Zhu, who had a close relationship with Blackscale Lord, quickly spoke: "My 'Ice Sand Sea' is a supreme top-grade among top-tier domain treasures—it will surely suppress that Wanjie Zhi Zhu's God-Slaying Formation Diagram!"

"Moreover, this Wanjie Zhi Zhu has become so arrogant—I want to see just how strong his abilities truly are!"

"Wan Shen going himself? Looks like that Wanjie Zhi Zhu is in for trouble!"

"Hahaha! That Wanjie Zhi Zhu is definitely going to be brutally crushed—maybe even killed by Wan Shen!"

Hearing Wan Shen Zhi Zhu was willing to go, the many Cosmic Lords of the Mechanical Clan laughed heartily, and even Blackscale Lord's worried expression quickly faded.

After all, Wan Shen Zhi Zhu's strength ranked among the top five in the entire Mechanical Clan—he was immensely powerful, and even eliminating the Wanjie Zhi Zhu's main battle avatar was not impossible.

"Ballscale, hold on a little longer!"

Wan Shen Zhi Zhu's gaze quickly turned to Blackscale Lord: "My true body has already set out and will arrive shortly!"

"No problem!"

Blackscale Lord quickly nodded: "Though that Wanjie Zhi Zhu's techniques are strange, he's not much stronger than me—I can still hold out for a long time!"

Though the exchange among these Mechanical Clan powerhouses seemed slow, even their weakest were Cosmic Lords, so their communication speed was extremely rapid—so from the moment Blackscale Lord sent his distress signal until Wan Shen Zhi Zhu set out to reinforce him, not even a second had passed.

……

In the Seclusion Ground of Tianming Zhi Zhu, two towering figures were locked in furious combat.

At this moment, Blackscale Lord no longer tried to flee; instead, he wielded his long spear, continuously blocking Lu Qingshan's attacks.

Meanwhile, Lu Qingshan held the Guhong Zhao Ying Sword, repeatedly unleashing his newly created Cosmic Lord Ultimate Technique: Nine Heavens Thunder Prison Slash.

Each clash, Lu Qingshan paid no heed to his own defense, fully relying on the strange nature of the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Prison Slash' to trade damage with Blackscale Lord.

"This Wanjie Zhi Zhu is a madman!"

At this moment, Blackscale Lord was furiously roaring inside his mind: "Wait till Wan Shen arrives—I'll make you pay for the humiliation of the Mechanical Clan!"

At this moment, Blackscale Lord swung his black spear nonstop, attempting to use his weapon to block Lu Qingshan's attacks, so he could conserve more divine power.

But Lu Qingshan's self-created 'Nine Heavens Thunder Prison Slash' inherently favored trading damage, and combined with Blackscale Lord being trapped within the domain formed by the God-Slaying Formation Diagram, most of his clashes with Lu Qingshan resulted in his divine body being directly struck by the brilliant sword light.

"Ballscale Lord, die!"

Lu Qingshan roared, then slashed again.

Thus, Lu Qingshan and Blackscale Lord continued their relentless exchange of blows.

Remember, the speed of combat between Cosmic Lords was extremely fast.

Added to that, Lu Qingshan's strategy was purely damage-for-damage, so in just over two minutes, Blackscale Lord's divine body had already lost over five percent.

Of course, while depleting five percent of Blackscale Lord's divine body, Lu Qingshan's main battle avatar had also lost over thirty percent (his divine body was smaller, his treasure armor slightly weaker).

But Lu Qingshan carried within him split divine bodies from the Infinite Divine Sea; losing thirty percent was nothing—three hundred percent or even three thousand percent would be insignificant.

"Why hasn't Wan Shen arrived yet?"

As he blocked Lu Qingshan's attacks, Blackscale Lord thought inwardly.

Though losing five percent of his divine body didn't affect his strength, it still pained him—especially since his treasure had been taken by Lu Qingshan.

In truth, if he were fighting another peer-level powerhouse, Blackscale Lord would never be this desperate.

But now, Lu Qingshan was purely relying on his massive divine power reserves to trade damage, making it extremely frustrating.

Moreover, Lu Qingshan's Cosmic Lord Ultimate Technique was strangely elusive—he couldn't block even once in ten clashes using his weapon.

And just then…

Boom!

Vast, hazy ice and snow instantly appeared around the endless starry void, beginning to collide with the domain formed by the God-Slaying Formation Diagram.

The God-Slaying Array Diagram, though now comparable to a top-tier Domain-class supreme treasure, still found its formed Domain no match for the boundless Ice World, quickly beginning to retreat step by step until it covered only one-fifth of the surrounding void.

As for the remaining four-fifths, they were firmly occupied by that boundless Ice World.

"Ice Sand Sea!"

The moment this boundless Ice World appeared, Lu Qingshan, who had long been informed of numerous Universe Master-level figures in the Primordial Universe, quickly recognized the opponent's identity: "So it is the Ten Thousand Gods Master of the Mechanical Race! It seems the Mechanical Race does not take me too seriously after all!"

Lu Qingshan had long anticipated that the Mechanical Race would send other powerful beings to descend; he had originally thought it would be the 'Lord of Falling Dust' equivalent to the Hun Dun Chengzhu, but he never expected it to be the Ten Thousand Gods Master.

Although the Ten Thousand Gods Master's strength was also extremely formidable, it was merely on par with the Lord Bingfeng, merely a fourth-rank Universe Master.

"Hahaha!"

Upon seeing the boundless Ice World appear, the Lord of Black Scales immediately let out a loud laugh and then swiftly flew toward the direction where the boundless Ice World was located.

At the same time, the Lord of Black Scales roared toward Lu Qingshan's direction: "Lord of Ten Thousand Worlds, fighting you yields no result; I shall depart first!"

Seeing this, Lu Qingshan made no further attempt to block him, instead allowing the opponent to charge into that boundless Ice World.

After all, with the Ten Thousand Gods Master having descended, and carrying the Ice Sand Sea—a supreme treasure among top-tier Domain-class treasures—he was utterly unable to continue pursuing the Lord of Black Scales under the opponent's influence.

"Hahaha..."

The Lord of Black Scales, having charged into the boundless Ice World, turned back to look at Lu Qingshan, who had already stopped, then sneered: "Lord of Ten Thousand Worlds, why do you not pursue?"

"Lord of Black Scales, do not be arrogant!"

Lu Qingshan immediately sneered: "This time you managed to escape disaster, but that was merely good luck; I believe next time you will not have such luck!"

"Then I shall wait!"

The Lord of Black Scales immediately said: "But you certainly will not have such an opportunity!"

"Oh, is that so?" Lu Qingshan sneered disdainfully.

With the Chat Group and its Enlightenment-Booster function within the group, the Lord of Black Scales's strength was now absolutely at its closest point to his.

Just at this moment...

Whoosh!

A burly figure clad in golden battle armor instantly appeared beside the Lord of Black Scales.
