Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 233 Armed Supreme Council

Lu Qingshan only felt a shift in time and space, and then he found himself outside the Ice Mountain Palace.

"I never expected the teacher to bestow such a treasure point directly!"

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "This is quite suitable for me. If I need any treasures, I can just exchange them in the clan's treasury!"

With this in mind, Lu Qingshan quickly boarded the spaceship and began to leave, while his true self in Chaos City set off for the City Lord's Mansion.

Although King Lei Huan and King Tong Ye were in his mansion before, they had already left while he was on his way to the Lord of Ice Peak.

After leaving the mansion, Lu Qingshan soon arrived at the gate of the city lord's mansion.

"Sir!"

"The Venerable One of All Realms!"

Although the guards outside the city lord's mansion were of ordinary strength, as guards of the city lord's mansion, they were very well-informed, so they naturally knew about Lu Qingshan's breakthrough. At this moment, they were all extremely respectful.

"Ok!"

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, then stepped into the City Lord's Mansion.

His purpose in coming to the city lord's mansion was naturally to exchange for treasures suitable for him in the human race's treasury.

The strong among the human race, whether contributing treasures to the race or exchanging treasures from the race's treasury, must do so in an ancient side hall within the city lord's mansion of the initial universe.

This ancient side hall has always been closed; to enter, one must first submit an application in the virtual universe.

Only after the application is approved will the main gate of the side hall be opened upon arrival.

Although Lu Qingshan already had some valuable treasure points, his current level of access was insufficient to apply for them in the virtual universe. Therefore, he could only ask Venerable Yaoguang for help if he wanted to exchange for treasures.

But now that he has broken through to become a Universe Venerable, he already possesses the relevant authority.

After Lu Qingshan reached the side hall...

Rumble!
The ancient palace gates that detected Lu Qingshan's message quickly opened.

A moment later, the bronze gate, which was over a hundred meters wide, was fully opened.

As soon as Lu Qingshan stepped inside, the palace doors quickly closed again.

"Is this where the tribe exchanges valuable treasures?"

Lu Qingshan looked around and saw that the space inside this side hall was extremely spacious, but there were no items placed there, except for a huge stone plate with a diameter of more than 100 meters placed in the very center.

According to the information Lu Qingshan had gathered, if one were to contribute treasures, all that was needed was to place the treasures on the stone plate in front of them, and the virtual universe system could then conduct a comprehensive exploration of the treasures through the stone plate.

However, since Lu Qingshan didn't have any treasures to offer, he simply reached out and gently tapped the huge stone disc in front of him.

soon……

"This is a detailed list of the precious treasures that humans can exchange!" A gentle, soothing voice rang out in the side hall.

At the same time, a huge, hazy gray form instantly appeared in mid-air above the entire side hall, displaying four very distinct categories...

Treasures, Valuable Treasures, Materials, and Special Resources!

In the bottom right corner, Lu Qingshan's current wealth is displayed...

Treasure Points: 4;

Heavy treasure point: 169.

The four Treasure Points were naturally bestowed upon him by the Lord of Ice Peak. As for the Greater Treasure Points, they were the spoils from the battle in the outer domain battlefield, as well as the remaining points after Venerable Radiant Light exchanged the Hundred Flower King's 'Sunset Red Cloud Armor' for treasures that could enhance the level of life genes.

Besides these treasures, Lu Qingshan also possesses the treasured longsword 'Purple Thunder Sky Wing Sword', the treasured battle armor 'Thunder Dragon Sky-Shaking Armor', the treasured battle boots 'Purple Thunder Sky-Treading Boots', the soul-type treasure 'Meteor Tear', and the treasure he obtained from that unfortunate 'Evil King' on the extraterrestrial battlefield.

As for the 100 Treasure Points that the human race can obtain after breaking through to the Universe Venerable level, they have not yet been credited to their accounts.

With such a vast fortune, even without considering the treasure points bestowed by the Lord of Ice Peak, it is comparable to that of a typical high-level universe venerable.

If the treasure points bestowed by the Lord of Ice Peaks are added, his value would be comparable to that of a typical cosmic overlord.

Within the human race's treasure trove, the exchange rate for major treasure points and supreme treasure points has always been subject to change.

Normally, one Treasure Point can be exchanged for three to four thousand Heavy Treasure Points, but currently, one Treasure Point can be exchanged for 3350 Heavy Treasure Points.

"I still have plenty of resources at my disposal!"

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "In that case, I should first take a good look at what treasures are in the vault, and then think about what I need to exchange for."

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan quickly looked up at the huge, hazy form in mid-air and said, "Special Resources!"

Wow!
The form changed instantly, revealing a large number of valuable resources available for exchange.

Next, Lu Qingshan began to carefully examine the many resources in the treasure trove of the human race.

Although these resources are mainly divided into four categories, they actually enumerate the most core and precious wealth of the entire human race, encompassing everything.

In particular, among the special resources, there is even the sleeping 'Immortal-level Zerg Queen', as well as many World Lord-level special life forms that can be possessed (special life forms have eternal lifespans, even World Lords).

Of course, the prices of these special resources vary depending on their rarity and importance.

Even with his current authority, Lu Qingshan is not qualified to view some extremely precious materials and treasures.

For example, the treasures are categorized into five types: ordinary treasures, high-grade treasures, top-grade treasures, peak treasures, and supreme treasures.

With Lu Qingshan's current authority, he can only view ordinary and high-level treasures. As for the higher-level top-tier treasures, peak treasures, and supreme treasures, he has no right to view them at all.

Of course, Lu Qingshan, who was familiar with the original work, knew very well that the current human race did not have any supreme treasures available for exchange.

In the original work, the human race only truly possessed supreme treasures available for exchange after the emergence of the Jin world.

In this way, Lu Qingshan observed for several hours before gaining a general understanding of these precious treasures among the human race.

Among the many treasures, Lu Qingshan naturally looked at the high-grade treasures first.

Unfortunately, even the cheapest high-level treasure sword requires 9 treasure points, which is beyond Lu Qingshan's current ability to exchange for.

As for the high-grade treasure armor, the cheapest one requires 12 treasure points.

As for high-level treasures of the domain, soul, and palace categories, they are generally above 160 treasure points.

In short, among treasures of the same level, melee weapons are the cheapest, followed by armor which is slightly more expensive, then psychic weapons, and auxiliary treasures such as boots and wings.
As for the treasures of the realm, soul, palace, and origin, they are the most expensive.

After viewing the precious high-level treasures, Lu Qingshan quickly opened the ordinary treasures.

It must be said that the price of ordinary Arcana items is far lower than that of high-level Arcana items. For example, an ordinary Arcana longsword is priced at only 1-1.5 Arcana Points, and some cheap Arcana armor is only around 2 Arcana Points.

Of course, Soul, Domain, and Palace items are much more expensive. Even the cheapest one costs 16 Treasure Points, which is more expensive than a high-level Treasure weapon.

"With the Treasure Points bestowed by my teacher, I can exchange them for a Treasure Longsword and a Treasure Armor!"

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "If I have a supreme sword and supreme armor to protect me, once I create the fourth peak level sword technique, my strength will probably be able to barely reach the level of a high-level Venerable!"

"However, what Master Ice Peak said is also true. My current strength is still relatively weak. Even if I barely managed to enter the high-level Venerable level with the help of a supreme treasure, it is nothing at all!"

"If we are killed by a powerful expert, all these treasures will be lost!"

It should be noted that Lu Qingshan had perished several times when he was venturing into the battlefields beyond the borders.

Although he has now successfully entered the realm of the Universe Venerable, he cannot guarantee that he will survive every single time he ventures into the universe.

"In that case, it's best not to exchange for the treasure for now!"

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "I'll spend a small portion of my wealth to exchange for some powerful treasures that I can use right now. That way, even if I die unexpectedly, I won't feel too bad!"

With this in mind, Lu Qingshan quickly began selecting the various treasures and resources that suited him.

First, he spent 1680 Treasure Points to exchange for some precious resources that could raise his own life gene level to fifty times that of ordinary life in the universe.
Then, I spent 90 Treasure Points to exchange for a top-tier treasure longsword, the "Purple Lightning Frost Sword," 120 Treasure Points to exchange for a top-tier treasure armor, the "Nine Heavens Dragon Scale Armor," 150 Treasure Points to exchange for a domain-type common treasure, the "Imitation Lightning Sea," and 160 Treasure Points to exchange for a flying palace-type common treasure, the "Lightning Escape Airship!"
Wow!
After Lu Qingshan selected the treasures, the supplies he needed quickly appeared on the huge stone slab in front of him.

"With the help of these treasures, I should be able to gain an advantage even when facing high-level universe venerables who don't have domain-type treasures!"

Looking at the many treasures in front of him, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but think to himself.

In terms of attack, he only uses top-tier magical weapons, so naturally he cannot compare to a high-level cosmic venerable.

However, in battles at the level of Cosmic Venerables, it's not just about attack power that matters.

Given the sturdiness of a flying palace-type treasure, even a relatively weak cosmic overlord would likely be unable to break through it, naturally greatly increasing his ability to survive. Lu Qingshan had previously considered exchanging most of his resources for a top-tier palace-type treasure, like the Silver Dragon Phantom Ship that Luo Feng obtained within the Ancestral God Sect in the original novel.

In this way, even if he encounters some powerful cosmic overlords, he will be able to save his life.

However, while top-tier palace-type treasures are excellent for preserving one's life, they offer little help in the struggle for treasures.

Furthermore, hiding in a palace-type treasure would make one vulnerable to suppression and sealing, so Lu Qingshan simply abandoned this option.

As for domain-type treasures, they can restrict the enemy's ability to move. If it's a contest for treasures, it will definitely give him an advantage among strong opponents of the same level.

In addition, there is the soul-type treasure 'Meteor Tear' guarding the soul, so even if he encounters a powerful expert who can shatter palace-type treasures, he can calmly self-destruct.

In addition, these treasures are not particularly valuable, totaling less than a thousand treasure points. Even if Lu Qingshan were to die unexpectedly and lose the treasures, he wouldn't be too heartbroken.

"I'll use these treasures to make my way around for a while!"

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "If I rarely encounter danger, or if I wait until my strength improves in the future, I will exchange for a more powerful and amazing treasure!"

After exchanging the treasures, Lu Qingshan quickly left the clan's treasure vault.

After familiarizing himself with the many treasures he had just exchanged in his mansion in Chaos City, Lu Qingshan quickly reconnected his consciousness to the virtual universe and arrived at the mountainside of Thunder Island.

Now that he has broken through to the realm of the Universe Venerable, he is naturally able to build a residence on the mountainside of Thunder Island.

Moreover, every cosmic venerable among the human race has an independent dimensional space as their territory in the virtual universe.

When he became the disciple of the Ice Peak Lord, the Ice Peak Lord had already arranged a space for him.

As for what form the dimensional space and residence should take, that is something that he, as the owner, needs to plan personally.

……

Thunder Island, Central Mountain Range, on the mountainside.

This is an incomparably majestic and vast mountain range. The residences built by the Universe Venerable here are actually a series of palace complexes, covering an area of ​​hundreds of thousands, or even millions of square kilometers, where many disciples, servants, and so on can live.

Whoosh!
Lu Qingshan flew along the mountainside, intending to find a suitable place to live.

But at this moment...

"Venerable One of All Realms!" a voice suddenly rang out.

"Ok?"

Lu Qingshan turned his head and saw a figure wearing a purple-gold robe flying over from a distance. It was none other than the Five Venerables who were also comprehending the Heavenly Thunder Chaos Stele.

Currently, there are only eight Universe Venerables in the Heavenly Thunder lineage, including Heavenly Thunder Venerable who created the Heavenly Thunder Chaos Stele and Lu Qingshan. These Five Venerables are among them, possessing the strength of a mid-level Universe Venerable.

Lu Qingshan had seen the Five Venerables several times before when he met with his fellow disciples.

Moreover, they both cultivate the Heavenly Thunder lineage, which, although not so important at the level of a Universe Venerable, still makes them relatively close.

“Five Venerable Ones,” Lu Qingshan greeted them warmly.

"The Venerable One of All Realms!"

The Five Venerable Ones quickly landed in front of Lu Qingshan, then smiled and said, "Are you planning to build a mansion halfway up this mountain?"

“That’s right!” Lu Qingshan nodded slightly.

"There is a good place near my place!"

The Five Venerable Ones quickly smiled and said, "Besides, that place is very close to Venerable Radiant Light's residence. How about we go and take a look together?"

"Then thank you very much, Venerable Five Directions!" Lu Qingshan quickly nodded in gratitude.

Subsequently, Lu Qingshan quickly followed the Five Venerables to a relatively high open space.

The Five Venerables quickly pointed to a spot not far away and introduced, "Venerable Myriad Realms, Venerable Radiant Light's residence is over there not far away, and my residence is over there too!"

"Why don't you build your mansion here? That way, we can exchange ideas more often in the future!"

"This location is really good!"

Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said, "Then I will build my mansion here!"

After selecting the location, Lu Qingshan quickly determined the architectural style and then submitted an application to the virtual universe.

After Lu Qingshan submitted his application, the virtual universe automatically created a large palace complex for him within moments.

After the mansion was completed, Lu Qingshan naturally invited the Five Venerables to sit inside.

Inside the newly built mansion's living room.

"Wan Jie, I didn't expect you to break through to the Universe Venerable realm so quickly!"

The Five Venerables raised their wine cups in a gesture of respect, saying, "Moreover, you already possessed the strength to be invincible as a king. With this breakthrough, your strength will likely surpass mine!"

"Wu Fang, you're too modest!"

Lu Qingshan also picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, then said with a smile, "I heard from Senior Brother Yaoguang that you recently gave the demon race's 'Earth Rat Venerable' a big loss in the 'Wuhua Secret Realm'! If someone hadn't come to his rescue, the Earth Rat Venerable would probably have perished at your hands!"

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan mention his proudest achievement, the Five Directions Venerable quickly smiled as well: "Actually, I didn't intend to fight that Earth Rat Venerable to the death, but he kept pestering me, trying to take away a precious treasure that I had just acquired!"

"I had no choice but to fight him! Although I eventually managed to get rid of him, I lost seven percent of my divine body!"

"That's already pretty good!"

Lu Qingshan said with a smile, "If I were to encounter that Earth Rat Venerable, I wouldn't be able to suppress or even severely injure him like you, Wufang!"

And so, Lu Qingshan and the Five Venerable Ones began to chat.

But at this moment...

"The Venerable One of All Realms!"

Another figure dressed in a fiery red robe arrived outside Lu Qingshan's mansion.

"It is Venerable Guiyi!"

Upon seeing the visitors, Lu Qingshan and the Five Venerables got up to greet them.

Venerable Guiyi is the second disciple of the Lord of Chaos City. He usually follows the Lord of Chaos City and often does things on the Lord of Chaos City's orders.

"Myriad Realms, I didn't expect you to have built your residence so quickly!"

Venerable Guiyi looked at Lu Qingshan and the other person: "Did I interrupt your conversation?"

"no!"

Lu Qingshan smiled and said, "I was just chatting casually with the Five Venerables. Venerable Guiyi, is there something you need from me?"

"Indeed, there are some things I wish to inform you, Venerable One of the Myriad Realms!"

Venerable Guiyi looked at Lu Qingshan and then solemnly said, "Venerable Wanjie, I am here on my teacher's orders to personally deliver this message to you!"

"Your proposal to join the highest council of our human race has been approved by the highest level of the race. From today onwards, you are qualified to attend the highest council of our human race!"

"In addition, the clan's bestowal of gifts to each newly breakthrough Universe Venerable has been distributed to you, and you can exchange them for the treasures you need in the clan's treasury at any time!"

"The Supreme Conference?" A hint of joy quickly appeared on Lu Qingshan's face.

In the original novel, Luo Feng was only able to join the Supreme Council after killing the King of the Barking Mirror and demonstrating sufficient strength.

Of course, Luo Feng was only at the Immortal Realm at that time, while Lu Qingshan has now broken through to the Venerable Realm, so joining this Supreme Meeting will naturally not be as troublesome as it was for him!

"Congratulations, myriad realms!"

"Congratulations, myriad realms!"

Venerable Guiyi and Venerable Wufang, who were standing nearby, quickly offered their congratulations.

As cosmic venerables of the human race, they had also experienced this event, so they understood Lu Qingshan's excitement at this moment.

Lu Qingshan soon invited Venerable Guiyi to his residence for a drink, which Venerable Guiyi gladly accepted.

　The next chapter will be a little late, around 1:00 AM. I promised to update again yesterday, but I've already been late for a day. I'll stay up all night tonight and not delay any longer.
