Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 310 Borrowing a Supreme Treasure: A Vast Divine Body

"Ten years from now, our human race will march into the Primitive Star!"

The Supreme Conference quickly came to an end amidst the mighty voice of the Chaos City Lord, which was as vast as the ocean.

In fact, the time spent in high-level meetings of human groups is generally this short. Only when there are matters that require a vote will it take a little longer, but it will still be very quick.

Rumble!
The gates of the Pantheon opened quickly, and then many cosmic venerables chatted and laughed as they walked toward the golden gates, then stepped inside and disappeared.

Lu Qingshan naturally stepped into the golden gate with his senior brother, Venerable Yaoguang, and then disappeared.

A moment later, Venerable Radiant Light was in the living room of his mansion halfway up Thunder Island.

Lu Qingshan and Venerable Yaoguang were sitting together, enjoying fine wine and food while discussing the upcoming events on the Primordial Star.

"Brother!"

Lu Qingshan raised his wine cup, gesturing for Venerable Yaoguang to drink with him, then smiled and said, "Now that the Primordial Star is opening, how about we, as fellow disciples, team up and explore together? We can split the spoils equally!"

Although Lu Qingshan's current strength is already somewhat stronger than that of Venerable Yaoguang, and he possesses many special techniques that allow him to handle top-tier cosmic overlords, he has never forgotten the help Venerable Yaoguang gave him in the past.

If it weren't for Venerable Yaoguang's initial guidance and the effort he put into getting him to become a disciple of the Ice Peak Lord, his path to becoming a powerful figure would probably not be as smooth as it is now!
That's why he's now taking the initiative to invite Venerable Radiance to explore the Primal Star together, and he'll even share the spoils with Venerable Radiance.

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Venerable Yaoguang couldn't help but smile.

Back then, the reason he guided Lu Qingshan and helped Lu Qingshan become a disciple of the Ice Peak Master was not only because Lu Qingshan was a disciple of the Thunder Illusion King, but also because Lu Qingshan was very grateful!

And now it seems that he was right about his judgment.

After all, with Lu Qingshan's current strength, there must be many cosmic overlords among the human race who want to venture into the Primal Star with him, and they would also give Lu Qingshan a larger share of the spoils.

But now Lu Qingshan is taking the initiative to invite him to explore the secret realm of the universe together, and even taking the initiative to ask to split the spoils equally.

"Qingshan, actually, I'd really like to explore that primordial star with you!"

Venerable Yaoguang picked up his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. He then continued, "However, I have recently gained some insights, so I plan to go into seclusion for a while to see if I can enhance the power of my self-created secret technique. I'm afraid I won't be able to venture into that Primordial Star with you!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshan quickly said, "Senior brother, this Primordial Star only opens once every endless years. Are you really planning to miss it like this?"

"Qingshan, you haven't been cultivating for long enough!"

Venerable Yaoguang quickly smiled and said, "The opportunity to open the Primordial Star is indeed quite rare, but for your senior brother, it's not considered rare at all!"

"Since I began my cultivation, the Primordial Star has been opened eleven times, and I have ventured there to explore six of them!"

"However, not every experience of venturing into the Primordial Star yielded great rewards. Sometimes, due to bad luck, one might only obtain two or three Treasure Points in a thousand epochs!"

"I understand!" After hearing what Venerable Yaoguang said, Lu Qingshan suddenly realized.

"Although the Primordial Star is the greatest opportunity in the universe, it is precisely because of this that it also attracts the gathering of major super powers in the universe."

Venerable Radiant Light quickly added, "The competition for some minor treasures might not be too fierce, but for supreme treasures, it's enough to make us, the overlords of the universe, fight to the death!"

"If it's some precious treasure, such as palaces, souls, or domains, it will attract the cosmic lords of all races to fight each other! As far as I know, every time a primordial star opens in history, a cosmic lord will fall!"

"I almost perished when I was adventuring on the Primordial Star last time. It was Venerable Qingluan who arrived in time to save me!"

"Qingshan, you must be extra careful when you venture to that primordial planet this time!"

Venerable Yaoguang said seriously again, "Although your strength is already extremely powerful, there is still a possibility of your demise! Even if you use your clone ability to regenerate a clone, the treasures accumulated over many years will be lost!"

"Don't worry, senior brother, I understand all of this!" Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said.

"Ok!"

Venerable Radiant nodded slightly, then continued, "When the cosmic overlords ventured into the Primordial Star, many acted alone, but some also acted with companions!"

"With your current strength, Qingshan, you are certainly qualified to venture into that Primordial Star alone. However, I still suggest that you team up with other cosmic overlords. After all, you have only recently broken through, and your protective treasures are not very powerful. If you encounter a formidable opponent, even if you can contend with them, it will be very difficult to seize the treasure!"

“I understand!” Lu Qingshan nodded quickly.

Next, Venerable Yaoguang explained to Lu Qingshan the precautions needed for venturing to the Primal Star.

Half a day later...

"All right!"

Venerable Yaoguang stood up and said, "Qingshan, I've told you everything I needed to tell you. The rest you'll only discover after you venture to that primordial star!"

"I'll also be going into seclusion to cultivate in seclusion soon. You should also get ready, otherwise everyone else will probably have already formed their teams!"

"Ok!"

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, and then left Venerable Yaoguang's residence after greeting him.

However, after leaving Venerable Yaoguang's residence, Lu Qingshan did not go to the residences of other universe overlords to discuss forming a team. Instead, he returned directly to his own residence to make plans.

"Since Senior Brother Yaoguang doesn't plan to go to the Primal Star, then with my current strength, there's no need for me to team up with other cosmic overlords!"

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "But what Senior Brother Yaoguang said is right. Although my current protective treasure is not bad, it is still inferior to those old-timer universe overlords!"

"I'm not worried about combat, but when it comes to treasure hunting, the most effective items are domain-type treasures!"

"My 'Purple Thunder Domain' is only a top-tier treasure of the domain category. It can give me a slight advantage when I encounter an ordinary cosmic overlord. However, if I encounter an opponent like Venerable Lock Gold who possesses a supreme treasure of the domain category, even if I am not afraid of him, I will definitely be at a disadvantage when it comes to snatching the treasure!"

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan immediately considered his remaining wealth: "After exchanging for the Meteorite Mark last time, I only have three Treasure Points left!"

"I remember that the cheapest domain-type treasure in the clan's treasury that would suit me costs 17 treasure points. Even if I contributed the Purple Thunder Domain, the Purple Gold Eight Treasures Ship, and the Thunderous Radiance Killing Sword to the human clan's treasury, I still wouldn't be able to exchange for a single domain-type treasure that would suit me!"

After a series of thoughts flashed through his mind, Lu Qingshan quickly thought to himself, "It seems I need to borrow a domain-type treasure from another powerful expert. It just so happens that Senior Brother Yaoguang said that Senior Brother Zifeng won't be going to that Primordial Star this time either. Why don't I try my luck with Senior Brother Zifeng first? If that doesn't work, I'll try to borrow it from my teacher or my clan!"

Zifeng Venerable is also a Time Venerable, so the domain-type treasure he uses should be quite suitable for Lu Qingshan.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan immediately set off for the residence of Venerable Zifeng.

When Lu Qingshan arrived at the residence of Venerable Zifeng, he found several Universe Venerables talking inside.

"Myriad Realms!"

"Junior Brother Qingshan!"

When Venerable Zifeng and the others saw Lu Qingshan appear, they greeted him warmly.

"Senior Brother Zifeng, Senior Brother Feiyu, Guiyi, Tushen!" Lu Qingshan greeted everyone with a smile.

"Hahaha!"

While gesturing for Lu Qingshan to sit down, Venerable Zifeng said with a smile, "Junior Brother Qingshan, you've come to borrow a treasure, haven't you?"

"Yes!"

Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said, "I came here this time to borrow the domain-type treasure that you have, Senior Brother. Once I return from the Primordial Star, I will return the treasure immediately and reward you with three ordinary treasures!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Venerable Fei Yu and the others breathed a sigh of relief, because the domain-type treasure that Lu Qingshan wanted to borrow did not conflict with them.

It should be noted that Lu Qingshan is a cosmic overlord with the ability to create clones, so his advantage when borrowing treasures is definitely much greater than theirs.

If Lu Qingshan wants to borrow the same treasure as them, then they will definitely return empty-handed this time.

"A domain-specific treasure?"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Venerable Zifeng couldn't help but laugh and say, "Junior brother, you've come at just the right time. Guiyi and the others didn't lend me any of my domain-type treasures, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to lend them to you!"

"How about this!" Venerable Zifeng said with a smile, raising his cup to invite Lu Qingshan and the others to drink together. "It just so happens that the treasures you have borrowed are all different, so there is no conflict!"

"I'll lend my domain-type treasure to Junior Brother Qingshan, my palace-type treasure to Junior Brother Feiyu, my high-grade treasure armor to Tushen, and my soul-type treasure to Guiyi!"

"My four treasures are all of similar value, so after you all leave the Primordial Star, you only need to give me three of them as a reward!"

"If you all agree, I can now have the virtual universe system notarize and sign the loan agreement, and then I can lend the treasure to you!"

"no problem!"

"I don't have any objection either!"

"I agree!"

After listening to what Venerable Zifeng said, Lu Qingshan and the others nodded in agreement.

After all, it was already quite generous of Venerable Zifeng to lend them such a treasure, and the reward he received was also very reasonable.

After all, venturing into a primordial star teeming with powerful beings could also lead to their demise and the loss of their treasures.

Even with the notarization of the virtual universe system, they would still be unable to repay the treasures and rewards in a short period of time.

The fact that Venerable Zifeng is willing to take such a risk means that the reward of three treasure points is definitely not much.

After seeing that Lu Qingshan and the other two had agreed to his request, Venerable Zifeng quickly asked the virtual universe system to complete the notarization, and then agreed with Lu Qingshan and the others on the time and place for the handover of the treasure.

After achieving their goal, Lu Qingshan and his companions did not rush to leave, but instead chatted idly for a while in the residence of Venerable Zifeng.

During this period, other Universe Venerables also came to borrow treasures from Venerable Zifeng, but since Venerable Zifeng's treasures had almost all been borrowed by Lu Qingshan and his group, these later Universe Venerables naturally returned empty-handed.

And so, Lu Qingshan chatted with Venerable Zifeng, Venerable Guiyi, and others for half a day before taking his leave.

Upon seeing this, Venerable Guiyi and the others naturally rose to take their leave.

Just as Lu Qingshan was about to return to reality after leaving Venerable Zifeng's residence, he was suddenly stopped by Venerable Guiyi.

"Normalization!"

Lu Qingshan turned to look at Venerable Guiyi, then asked in confusion, "Is there something you need?"

"Myriad Realms!"

Venerable Guiyi quickly spoke up, saying, "Although the Primordial Star is full of endless opportunities, countless powerful beings from billions of races in the vast universe gather there, so it won't be so easy for us to seize the treasures!"

“I understand!” Lu Qingshan nodded slightly.

If the treasure hunt on the Primordial Star had been as successful as Luo Feng's in the original novel, then the cosmic overlords who had experienced the opening of the Primordial Star multiple times wouldn't be so poor.

"Although you, Myriad Realms, are powerful, this is, after all, your first time encountering the opening of the Primordial Star!"

Venerable Guiyi looked at Lu Qingshan and then invited, "How about we form a team? If we cooperate with each other, the chances of obtaining treasures will surely increase significantly!"

"Team up?" Lu Qingshan was slightly taken aback.

Actually, if it were any other cosmic overlord, teaming up with the Venerable Guiyi would indeed be a good thing.

After all, Venerable Guiyi is very powerful and has amazing methods. He is also equipped with domain-type treasures, palace-type treasures, etc. Even if he encounters some top universe overlords, he can hold out until reinforcements arrive.

However, Lu Qingshan originally planned to act alone this time, and even borrowed a domain-type treasure from Venerable Zifeng for this purpose.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan quickly replied, "Guiyi, thank you for your invitation, but this time I still plan to venture into that Primordial Star alone!"

"Alright!"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's reply, Venerable Guiyi smiled and nodded, showing no sign of being bothered.

After all, with his strength, he was fully capable of venturing into the Primordial Star on his own.

The main reason he was willing to invite Lu Qingshan was because Lu Qingshan's strength was similar to his own. If the two joined forces, they might achieve a result greater than the sum of their parts.

Lu Qingshan quickly regained his senses and decided to go to the human race's treasure vault to exchange for some more treasures that suited him.

Just as Lu Qingshan was about to set off, he suddenly received an email from Venerable Fire God.

"An email from Venerable Vulcan? Does he have something important to discuss with me?"

Lu Qingshan was slightly taken aback, and then thought to himself, "Could it be about that Origin-type treasure that I borrowed from him?"

Over the past billions of epochs, Lu Qingshan has also been continuously expanding the size of his endless divine sea clone.

However, the larger the size of the Endless Divine Sea clone, the more difficult it becomes to expand.

In order to accelerate the expansion of his Endless Divine Sea clone and maintain his advantage in divine power after breaking through to the realm of the Lord of the Universe, Lu Qingshan rented a primordial treasure from the Fire God Venerable that could increase the speed of absorbing divine power a thousand times over.

Renting a primordial treasure from the human race's treasury, which can increase the speed of absorbing divine power by a thousand times, costs one treasure point every thousand epochs. However, renting it from the Fire God Venerable offers a 20% discount.

Lu Qingshan has intermittently rented over ten million epochs worth of primordial treasures from Venerable Fire God, spending tens of thousands of treasure points in total. He is definitely a big customer of Venerable Fire God.

After all, even if he possesses a treasure of the origin, he can't just lend it out at any time.

Of course, renting the Origin-type treasure cost Lu Qingshan tens of thousands of treasure points, but his gains were also very significant.

The diameter of Lu Qingshan's endless divine sea clone has now expanded to more than two billion kilometers. In terms of the size of the divine body alone, even the strongest World Tree cannot compare with it.

Of course, the strongest World Tree has an extremely high level of life genes, and in terms of total divine power, it may be comparable to Lu Qingshan's Endless Divine Sea clone.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan immediately connected his consciousness to the virtual universe and rushed to the residence of the Fire God Venerable.

After meeting Lu Qingshan, the Fire God Venerable first politely invited him to sit down. After serving him fine wine and delicacies, he continued, "Myriad Realms, during the opening of the Primordial Star this time, have you heard that the rental prices of all the primordial treasures in our human race's treasury have increased a thousandfold?"

"As expected, it's because of the Primal Treasure!"

Lu Qingshan sighed inwardly, then said, "I've heard about this too! With the opening of the Primordial Star, the clan's experts will definitely be going in to fight. Once they're fighting, the best way to restore their divine power is to rent Origin-type treasures. It's only natural that the rental price of Origin-type treasures will increase!"

"Yes!"

The Fire God Venerable nodded slightly, then said somewhat awkwardly, "Myriad Realms, you've frequently rented primordial treasures from me lately, so I shouldn't raise the price, but..."

"I see!"

Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said, "Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to rent a Primal Treasure. I'll be heading to Chaos City soon, and I'll give the Primal Treasure to you, God of Fire, to take with me!"

For Lu Qingshan, this trip to the Primordial Star definitely requires him to bring along the split divine body of the Endless Divine Sea Avatar. During this period, the Endless Divine Sea Avatar obviously cannot continue to expand, so there is naturally no need to continue using the Origin-type treasure.

Moreover, if he's lucky and gains a lot during his adventure on the Primordial Star, he might be able to exchange for a Primordial Treasure himself when the Primordial Star closes down, at which point there will be no need to continue renting it.

"This……"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words, the Fire God Venerable immediately said, "Myriad Realms, I remember you originally planned to rent a Primal Treasure for 100,000 epochs, and now almost 10,000 epochs have passed!"

"I breached the contract first this time, and I will refund all eighty Treasure Points that you paid me in advance last time!"

"Ok!"

Faced with the goodwill extended by the Fire God Venerable, Lu Qingshan did not refuse, but nodded slightly in agreement, indicating that he did not mind the matter.

　There will be a second chapter, but it will be a little later.
