Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 269 Plan
Rumble!
Under the impact of endless divine power, the high-grade treasure armor on the surface of Venerable Lock Gold's body instantly shimmered with endless light.

"One percent of the divine body is damaged!"

Sensing the damage to his divine power, Venerable Lock Gold's eyes turned icy: "This Venerable of Myriad Realms is truly a damned human scum!"

Keep in mind that he was wearing a high-grade treasure armor, and his divine body was over ten kilometers long.

Which of the beings capable of damaging his divine power is not the most troublesome among the universe's overlords?
But now he has been injured by a Cosmic Venerable who has only recently broken through to the next level.

Although he didn't lose much of his divine power, it was still a great humiliation for him!

"Venerable One of All Realms, just you wait!"

As Venerable Suojin waved his hand to collect the numerous treasures left behind by Lu Qingshan's self-destruction, he said coldly, "When we meet again in the future, I won't give you such a chance again!"

However, Venerable Suojin thought about it again and quickly shook his head.

After all, Lu Qingshan had self-destructed such a massive divine body and lost a lot of treasures this time. It would take him a long time to recover his strength to the previous level!

Little did he know that the self-destructing divine body was nothing more than a drop in the ocean compared to Lu Qingshan's vast and boundless divine sea avatar.

After a series of thoughts flashed through his mind, Venerable Lock Gold was about to teleport away from the battlefield.

But at this moment...

An invisible spatial fluctuation instantly spread across a range of hundreds of millions of kilometers, and then the surrounding space was completely sealed off, making it impossible to use the teleportation ability again.

At the same time, three figures were rushing toward Venerable Suojin from not far away; they were the three Universe Venerables of the human race.

"Lock the gold!"

Among these three powerful humans, the leader was none other than the master of the God-Slaying Temple, the God-Slaying Venerable. At this moment, his face was filled with rage, and he shouted directly, "Leave the God-Slaying Temple here, and I can let you leave safely!"

The three powerful figures from the human race who arrived at this moment all possessed the strength of a cosmic overlord: Godslayer Venerable, Frost Condensation Venerable, and Unity Venerable.

Among them, Venerable Ning Shuang and Venerable Tu Shen came after receiving the distress messages from Venerable Tian Feng and Venerable Tie Quan, while Venerable Gui Yi came after Venerable Tu Shen learned of Venerable Tie Quan's demise.

It should be noted that the Iron Fist Venerable borrowed the God-Slaying Palace from the God-Slaying Venerable.

Now that the Iron Fist Venerable has fallen, the God-Slaying Palace will most likely fall into the hands of the Lock Gold Venerable.

The Temple of Godslayer was obtained by Godslayer Venerable at great cost from the human race's treasury. Although it wasn't his most important treasure, it was still incredibly valuable, and he naturally couldn't stand by and watch Venerable Lock Gold take it away.

That's why he invited Venerable Guiyi, with whom he had a very good relationship, to come together, all in order to reclaim his God-Slaying Palace from Venerable Suojin!

"Hahaha!"

With a thought, Venerable Suojin unleashed his ninety million golden sand domains once more, filling the surrounding space and time: "Venerable Ningshuang, Venerable Guiyi, Venerable Tushen, you have all arrived far too late!"

"If it were before, I would have been afraid of you, but now, what can you do to me?"

Seeing Venerable Suojin's confident and fearless demeanor, Venerable Tushen quickly turned to Venerable Guiyi beside him: "Guiyi, I'm counting on you!"

"rest assured!"

With a thought, Venerable Guiyi also unleashed his own domain-type treasure.

Unfortunately, after his domain-type treasure appeared, it was at most comparable to the Ninety Million Golden Sand Domain used by Venerable Lock Gold, but it did not have any advantage at all.

"This……"

Upon seeing this, Venerable Guiyi was slightly taken aback: "When did Venerable Suojin acquire a domain-type treasure?"

You should know that the Venerable Lock Gold used to use only a top-tier domain-type treasure. It should have crumbled at the first touch against his domain-type supreme treasure!
At this moment, Venerable Lock Gold took out his Void Tower and went inside.

In the past, if he had encountered the combined forces of Venerable Ning Shuang and his two companions, even if he could withstand them, he would have suffered considerable losses and might have had to seek help from other cosmic overlords of the demon race.

But now, with the Void Tower, a palace-like treasure, he is able to easily get rid of the three Venerable Guiyi.

As expected, after seeing Venerable Suojin hide in the Void Tower, Venerable Ningshuang quickly took out his sealing treasure in an attempt to suppress the opponent.

However, under the absorption of the sealing treasure of Venerable Ning Shuang, the Void Tower on which Venerable Suo Jin rode remained unmoved.

Only then did Venerable Ning Shuang realize the source of Venerable Suo Jin's confidence in facing the three of them: a palace-type treasure that was extremely rare even for most cosmic overlords.

Subsequently, Venerable Suojin rode the Void Tower directly into Venerable Guiyi and his two companions, then laughed loudly and flew away into the distance.

Although the three Venerable Guiyi were furious, they were powerless against Venerable Suojin and could only watch him leave arrogantly.

"Damn the Venerable Locked Gold!"

Seeing that Venerable Suojin had escaped unscathed, Venerable Tushen was undoubtedly the most furious!

"I wonder where this Venerable Lock Gold got his hands on those domain-type and palace-type treasures!"

Venerable Guiyi, standing to the side, couldn't help but sigh, "I remember the last time I fought him, he was only using a top-tier domain-type treasure, not even a top-tier palace-type treasure!"

With the wealth of Venerable Suojin, purchasing an ordinary palace-type treasure would be extremely easy.

However, ordinary palace-type treasures are completely useless in battles between cosmic overlords. A slightly stronger cosmic overlord can completely destroy ordinary palace-type treasures when burning divine power.

Only top-tier palace-type treasures have any effect on beings at the level of cosmic overlords.

However, even slightly better top-tier palace-type treasures are worth more than one treasure point, and even universe overlords would find it difficult to obtain them quickly.

Now, Venerable Lock Gold has suddenly acquired a domain-type treasure and a palace-type treasure, which together exceed 25 treasure points. This is naturally an extremely terrifying thing.

After all, the average cosmic overlord only has a few Treasure Points to his name when all his wealth is added together.

"This matter can be told to the Star Prison Demon Lord, the Ancestral Tree Venerable, and the Azure Phoenix Venerable!"

After pondering for a moment, Venerable Guiyi continued, "The total wealth of Venerable Suojin is estimated to exceed fifty Treasure Points. The Star Prison Demon Lord and the others might be interested!"

He didn't intend to ask the Lord of the Universe for help.

After all, there are some unspoken rules in the universe.

Under normal circumstances, the Lord of the Universe will not take action against the Venerable One of the Universe.

Otherwise, during the opening of the Primordial Star, the Lords of the Universe could have easily swept away those Universe Venerables and even Universe Overlords on the Primordial Star. The speed at which they accumulated wealth would have been much faster than waiting for treasures to be born.

Even the strongest lone universe beings, who have no weaknesses, would not do such a thing!

After all, doing so would be extremely shameful. It would be one thing if the other party had offended him or if it was for some precious treasures, but murder and robbery are generally rare occurrences.

After hearing what Venerable Guiyi said, Venerable Ningshuang, who was standing to the side, was also moved.

However, she didn't intend to tell the three Venerable Ancestral Trees about the news; instead, she wanted to tell her junior brother, Palace Master Heavenly Eclipse, about Venerable Locked Gold. It's important to know that Palace Master Heavenly Eclipse also possessed a powerful special life form avatar. Although his current strength might be somewhat weaker than the three Venerable Ancestral Trees, he definitely had the potential to become a top-tier cosmic overlord comparable to them in the future!
……

On the other side, having shaken off the three Venerable Guiyi, Venerable Suojin rode the Void Tower, a palace-like treasure, slowly flying through the ancient mystical realm, while he quietly tallied his gains inside the Void Tower.

"The Temple of Slaughtering Gods!"

Looking at the most important treasure among this harvest, Venerable Suojin couldn't help but smile: "I originally thought that getting the Seven-Colored Lotus of Love would be pretty good, but I didn't expect to get this God-Slaying Palace as well!"

"If I contribute this God-Slaying Temple to the clan's treasury, the contribution points I get will probably be enough for me to exchange for two ordinary supreme treasures!"

"And then there's the top-tier psychic weapon left behind by Venerable Tianfeng after his fall, which is probably worth several hundred treasure points. As for the other treasures, they're quite ordinary!"

"But this Venerable One of Myriad Realms is truly wealthy! Although he has only recently broken through, he is already equipped with top-tier magical weapons, top-tier magical armor, magical combat shoes that aid in flight, soul-related magical treasures, palace-related magical treasures, and even domain-related magical treasures!"

"Although everything except the weapons and armor are ordinary treasures, even among high-level cosmic venerables, it's rare to find someone equipped with such a comprehensive collection of treasures!"

As the saying goes, a treasure is valued for its quality, not its quantity!

Like many cosmic beings in the universe, apart from those powerful cosmic overlords, the others usually act in twos or threes with friends.

Therefore, they usually only equip one of each of the auxiliary treasures such as palaces and domains.

Just like Mad Blade Venerable and Iron Eagle Venerable, who originally acted with Lu Qingshan, because they often ventured into the universe together, one of them exchanged for a palace-type treasure and the other exchanged for a domain-type treasure.

Lu Qingshan equipped himself with all the treasures he could this time, but they were all relatively ordinary, which is rare among ordinary universe venerables.

"However, it's normal that this Venerable of Myriad Realms hasn't been around for long and lacks experience. This time, I've actually benefited!"

The Venerable Lock Gold thought to himself, "It's a pity he didn't carry any treasures, otherwise my gains this time would have been even greater!"

……

Within the human realm, in the Yanfeng Universe Kingdom, and within Lu Qingshan's divine kingdom.

While Venerable Suojin was still taking stock of the many spoils left behind by Venerable Lu Qingshan, Venerable Tiequan, and Venerable Tianfeng, Lu Qingshan's Endless Divine Sea clone had already conceived his second main battle clone once again.

"We've really suffered a huge loss this time!"

In the temple above the divine kingdom, Lu Qingshan was reflecting on the previous battle: "Soul-type treasure 'Meteor Tear' 120 treasure points, top-tier treasure longsword 'Purple Lightning Frost Sword' 90 treasure points, top-tier treasure armor 'Nine Heavens Dragon Scale Armor' 120 treasure points, domain-type ordinary treasure 'Imitation Lightning Sea' 150 treasure points, flying palace-type ordinary treasure 'Lightning Escape Airship' 160 treasure points, auxiliary flight-type treasure 'Purple Lightning Sky-Treading Boots' 110 treasure points!"

"Even without counting the loss of divine power, my loss this time is as high as 750 treasure points!"

At this moment, Lu Qingshan was undoubtedly extremely frustrated.

After all, he had spent over 100,000 epochs exploring the secret realms of the universe, accumulating only over 800 treasure points. Now, after his fall, he was back to 100,000 epochs ago in a single day.

However, Lu Qingshan had actually anticipated this situation.

After all, even a powerful fifth-order universe master like the Chaos City Lord might be hard to kill in the primordial universe, but when venturing into the cosmic sea, his main battle avatar must have perished.

Otherwise, after cultivating for such a long time, even if they accumulated wealth at the same speed as Lu Qingshan at this moment, they would have been able to accumulate a complete set of top-tier treasures.

At this time, Lu Qingshan was just a minor Universe Venerable, not even the most outstanding among them. It was perfectly normal for him to fall at the hands of other powerful beings.

"However, the most unlucky ones this time are Venerable Tianfeng and Venerable Tiequan!"

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Neither of them had a clone. After their fall, not only were all the treasures they carried taken away, but they also owed the clan a huge debt!"

"Especially the Iron Fist Venerable, the God-Slaying Temple he borrowed from the God-Slaying Venerable was judged fairly by the virtual universe. Once he is resurrected by reversing time and space, he will probably have to work for his race for endless years to repay such a huge debt!"

"But no matter what, I will definitely get my revenge later!"

Lu Qingshan secretly made up his mind: "Damn Venerable Lock Gold, just wait, once I become stronger, I will definitely come looking for you again!"

Of course, killing Venerable Suojin is something that Lu Qingshan simply cannot do in a short period of time.

After all, at this point, the Lock Gold Venerable was already considered the most powerful among the universe overlords. The only ones capable of killing him would probably be top-tier universe overlords and universe masters equipped with even more powerful sealing treasures.

However, for Lu Qingshan, as long as his strength continues to improve, this day will eventually come.

Just like the Flying Swallow King and the Zerg Queen Rainbow Rain, who killed him during the Immortal stage, didn't they all eventually perish at his hands?

"But then again..."

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "After so many years of exploring the secret realms of the universe, I have now fallen into the hands of that Lock Gold Venerable. This has made me realize some of my shortcomings!"

"For me, there's really no need to equip myself with all the treasures like before!"

"Especially palace-type treasures are useless! With my current strength, relying on the divine body split from the endless divine sea avatar, dealing with high-level universe venerables is definitely not a problem. There is no need to use palace-type treasures to save my life. And when facing a universe overlord, ordinary palace-type treasures are even more useless!"

"There are also domain-type treasures and flight-assisting treasures. For now, you only need to choose one of them, and it's best to choose the domain-type treasure!"

"After all, ordinary heavy treasures that assist in flight have very limited effect on my movement techniques, and top-level heavy treasures are too expensive. They are usually only equipped by cosmic overlords! Having a domain-type heavy treasure is enough for me to hold my own, or even gain the upper hand, in battles against some high-level Venerables!"

"Furthermore, when I explore the secret realms of the universe, I will likely be traveling with other universe venerables for a considerable period of time. If they are carrying domain-level treasures, there is absolutely no need for me to continue carrying mine!"

"In that case, what I need most is a top-tier treasure longsword, a top-tier treasure armor, and a soul-type treasure to save my life!"

"If I had only brought these three treasures with me this time, even if I were killed by that Venerable Lock Gold, the losses would have been much smaller!"

"Moreover, when I go to the clan's treasury to exchange for treasures this time, I can exchange for a better top-tier heavy weapon, which will further enhance my attack power!"

With this in mind, Lu Qingshan's main body in Chaos City quickly applied to go to the clan's treasury to exchange for treasures.

After his application was approved, Lu Qingshan quickly headed to the human race's treasure vault located in a side hall of the Chaos City Lord's Mansion.

Having gained experience from exchanging treasures before, Lu Qingshan didn't waste too much time this time and quickly selected several treasures suitable for his use from the clan's treasure vault.

These treasures are: the 'Thunder Dragon Roaring Armor' worth 130 treasure points, the 'Nine Thunder Heart Lamp' worth 120 treasure points, the 'Imitation Thunder Light Sea' worth 150 treasure points, and the 'Sun and Moon Universe Sword', a top-tier treasure worth 280 treasure points!
That's right, the domain-type treasure that Lu Qingshan exchanged this time is still the previous 'Imitation of Thunder Light Sea'!
This treasure must have been crafted by a master craftsman of the human race. Even after Lu Qingshan exchanged it, there were still two left in the race's treasury.

As for the other treasures, they do not appear to be standard-issue treasures that have been crafted.

As for the other palace-type treasures and flight-aiding treasures, Lu Qingshan was not in a hurry to exchange them.

Wow!
After Lu Qingshan selected the treasures and had the corresponding treasure points deducted, the treasures he had exchanged quickly appeared on the huge blue stone plate in front of him.

"Soul-related treasures are definitely indispensable!"

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "Although with my willpower and the secret techniques of the soul, even a soul attack from a cosmic overlord would have a hard time harming me, it's still better to be prepared!"

"Otherwise, if I encounter a super strong expert who is skilled in soul enslavement, I'll be in big trouble!"

"Moreover, the 'Sun and Moon Universe Sword' that I exchanged this time is of very good quality. With it, my strength will be slightly improved compared to when I used the Purple Lightning and Azure Frost Sword!"
