Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 318 The Unlucky Qianwu Venerable Exchanges for a Supreme Treasure
"Niu Zhou, come and have a drink!"

A cosmic venerable quickly refilled a cup of fine wine for the Niu Zhou venerable, then said with a smile, "Tell us about the emergence of other top-tier treasures!"

"You guys are being way too greedy!"

The Venerable Niu Zhou downed the wine in his cup in one gulp, and then continued, "Top-tier treasures are incredibly precious; even the highest-ranking cosmic lords could perish because of them!"

"The Primordial Star has only been open for a few decades. How could so many top-tier treasures have appeared? As far as I know, only three top-tier treasures have appeared in these decades, and one of them has not yet been obtained by anyone. I have already told you this!"

"If more top-tier treasures were to appear, even a cosmic lord might perish as a result!"

"That's true!"

Upon hearing what Venerable Niu Zhou said, the other Venerables of the Universe nodded in agreement.

The opening of the primordial star was indeed a rare and grand event in the primordial universe, but top-tier treasures were equally precious, even the cheapest top-tier treasure weapon.

Therefore, during the opening of the Primordial Star, the number of top-tier treasures that will be born will not be too many!
"Then let's talk about something else!"

A cosmic venerable quickly smiled and said, "Niu Zhou, besides the emergence of a top-tier treasure, is there anything else worth mentioning about the opening of the Primordial Star this time?"

"Of course!"

The Venerable Niu Zhou gestured to someone beside him to pour him a drink, then continued, "Aside from a few top-tier treasures and the lofty lords of the universe, the most famous person on the Primordial Star right now is the 'Soul Devouring Venerable' of the Mechanical Race!"

"More than thirty years ago, when the Soul Devourer Venerable was fighting for a supreme treasure armor on the Primordial Star, he killed three cosmic overlords and eight high-level cosmic venerables in one fell swoop. His strength was absolutely terrifying!"

"I know that Soul Devourer Venerable!"

One of the Cosmic Venerables quickly said, "I remember that the Soul Devouring Venerable rose to power after the last opening of the Primordial Star. His talent was indeed extremely terrifying. At that time, our human race organized several assassination attempts, but in the end, he still managed to break through to the realms of Immortal God and Cosmic Venerable!"

"I never imagined that in less than a hundred billion epochs, the opponent would possess such terrifying strength!"

"Besides the Soul Devouring Venerable, there is also the Crystal Clan's Shadow-Shadow Venerable, the Nine Domains Alliance's Blue Rain Venerable, and my human race's Myriad Realms Venerable!"

The Venerable Niu Zhou quickly continued, "I've heard that in the past period of time, several cosmic overlords have fallen at their hands!"

"The Venerable One of Myriad Realms is indeed very powerful!"

A cosmic venerable nearby quickly exclaimed, "Fifteen years ago, I personally witnessed the Venerable of Myriad Realms kill the 'Heavenly Eye Venerable' of the Misty Alliance!"

Just then, a figure clad in purple-gold armor suddenly appeared in the distance and walked towards Venerable Niu Zhou and the others.

"It is the Venerable One of Myriad Realms!"

"The Venerable One of Myriad Realms has arrived!"

"Myriad Realms!"

"The Venerable One of All Realms!"

Upon seeing Lu Qingshan, all the cosmic venerables stood up and greeted him warmly.

“Nuizhou, Lionheart…”

Lu Qingshan greeted everyone with a smile, then asked with a smile, "What are you all talking about? It's so lively!"

"Hahaha!"

The Lionheart Venerable, possessing the strength of a cosmic overlord, quickly laughed and said, "Myriad Realms, Niu Zhou was just talking about how you slaughtered everyone on the Primordial Star!"

"Actually, I only benefited from the fact that those alien races didn't know my strength!"

Upon hearing Lionheart Venerable's words, Lu Qingshan quickly smiled and said, "In recent years, those alien races have become familiar with my methods, making it difficult for them to kill alien universe venerables as they did before!"

"That's already pretty good!"

Lionheart Venerable quickly flattered, "I have cultivated for a longer time than you, Myriad Realms, but I still haven't killed a cosmic overlord. But you, Myriad Realms, have already killed several cosmic overlords!"

Upon hearing Lionheart Venerable's words, Lu Qingshan merely smiled slightly, then turned to look at Niu Zhou Venerable beside him and said, "Niu Zhou, I wonder if there are any interesting things happening during the opening of the Primordial Star this time?"

"Then it depends on what you want to hear, myriad realms?"

The Venerable Niu Zhou quickly replied, "Do you want to know about treasures or powerful individuals? Do you want to know about information about alien races or about the powerful individuals of our human race?"

"Let me first talk about the strong members of my human race!"

Lu Qingshan quickly sat down with the others, then smiled and said, "I'd also like to know what the strong among our human race have gained!"

"Among the many powerful beings of my human race, you, from the myriad realms, have undoubtedly reaped the greatest rewards!"

Niu Zhou Venerable quickly smiled and said, "As for the others, I heard that Ning Shuang Venerable and Bi Luo Venerable joined forces more than ten years ago to seize a high-grade treasure armor; Jiu Feng Venerable also seized a high-grade treasure weapon with two companions. As for the other powerful individuals, they also made some gains, but most of them were heavy treasures and ordinary treasures!"

"Having even a common treasure is already quite good!"

The Lionheart Venerable quickly added, "All the wealth I've accumulated over the years only amount to three supreme treasures! I even ventured to that primordial star this time, but so far I've only managed to acquire five ordinary heavy treasures and one top-tier heavy treasure!"

Just as Lu Qingshan and the Venerable Niu Zhou were having a pleasant conversation, they suddenly heard an angry shout coming from afar.

"Qianwu, you promised to return that treasure to me within ten thousand years. That is the only treasure I possess!"

A cosmic venerable being with a single silver horn on his head was speaking loudly: "But you perished on the Primordial Star this time, and even my supreme treasure was lost. What do you tell me to do now?"

This alien powerhouse had a loud voice, so many Universe Venerables who were drinking around turned to look at him, and Lu Qingshan was no exception.

In a distant corner sat two powerful figures. Besides the Silver Horned alien who shouted loudly, the other was the Qianwu Venerable whom Lu Qingshan had rescued on the Primal Star.

When the Venerable Qianwu saw everyone turn to look at him, he couldn't help but show an embarrassed expression. He then waved his hand to erect a barrier and prepared to continue to persuade them kindly.

"What are you blocking!"

Why block it?

The alien powerhouse, 'Silver Horn Venerable', directly shattered the barrier erected by Qianwu Venerable with a wave of his hand, and then continued to speak loudly: "Qianwu, you and I have a long-standing friendship, otherwise I would not have lent you my most precious treasure! But now you have directly lost my most precious treasure, what do you tell me to do?"

Hearing Silver Horn Venerable's words, Qianwu Venerable looked embarrassed, but he did not utter a word of rebuttal.

Because what Venerable Silver Horn said was true. If they didn't have a good relationship, Venerable Silver Horn would never have lent him the treasure!

"This is?"

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but look at Venerable Niu Zhou beside him: "Niu Zhou, has Venerable Qian Wu perished on the Primordial Star again?"

"Yes!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Venerable Niu Zhou quickly nodded and said, "Qian Wu was also unlucky. He had already perished twice before, and this time when he went to venture to that primordial star, he was killed by Venerable Tianhua of the demon race!"

"This is the third time Qianwu has fallen! And after his fall this time, all the treasures on his body fell into the hands of that demon clan's Venerable Tianhua, including some treasures he borrowed from his friends!"

"If we add the resources owed to the clan and friends from the two previous deaths, the Qianwu clan probably owes them a huge amount of resources now!"

"That Silver Horn Venerable is also one of Qian Wu's good friends, and they even have a life-and-death bond. It seems that this time it was he who lent the treasure he had to Qian Wu!"

"Now that the Qianwu have been resurrected by the clan's higher-ups through time reversal, the Silver Horn Venerable will naturally come knocking to demand his supreme treasure back!"

"This……"

After hearing what Venerable Niu Zhou said, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.

He thought that since he had saved the Venerable Qianwu once on the Primordial Star, the Venerable Qianwu would not perish this time.

Unexpectedly, after regaining his divine power, Venerable Qianwu still ventured to the Primordial Star once again!
However, he was not as lucky as before, and in the end, he once again perished at the hands of the demon clan's Venerable Tianhua.

"The Venerable Qianwu is quite unlucky!"

The Venerable Niu Zhou quickly added, "His strength is actually quite good; he's considered one of the stronger high-level universe venerables!"

"But his luck was terrible. He died three times in succession. Not only did he owe his clan a lot of resources because of his resurrection, but he also owed a lot of treasures because he borrowed them from his friends!"

"Without any extraordinary stroke of luck, it's estimated that Qianwu will have a very difficult time turning things around!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshan felt a pang of emotion.

The Venerable Qianwu was indeed quite unlucky, but in a sense, his luck was also quite good!
After all, in the original work, Venerable Qianwu took Luo Feng's son Luo Hai as his disciple, so much so that Luo Feng, while still at the Immortal God stage, helped him repay the debts he owed to many friends. When Luo Feng had the strength of a Universe Lord, he directly recruited Venerable Qianwu to serve under him!

Not to mention what will happen in the future!

The Venerable Qianwu is Luo Hai's teacher, and his future strength and status will definitely be unmatched by the current cosmic venerables of the human race!
And just then...

A figure clad in black armor suddenly approached the two, none other than the Northern Ming Venerable, who had been rescued by Lu Qingshan along with the Qianwu Venerable. "Silver Horn!"

Upon approaching the two Venerables, Venerable Beiming quickly said, "After all, Venerable Qianwu was just resurrected by the high-ranking members of our human race through time reversal. You should give him some time to gather resources, shouldn't you?"

"Besides, you've known Qianwu for so long, can't you wait a little longer?"

"This……"

After hearing what Venerable Beiming said, Venerable Yinjiao quickly replied, "I have no problem waiting for a while, but can Qianwu really return my treasure?"

"of course can!"

Venerable Beiming quickly spoke up, saying, "If Qianwu cannot repay you, I will repay him in his stead!"

Hearing this, Venerable Silver Horn's emotions gradually stabilized, and after a short while, he said goodbye to Venerable Qianwu and left.

"Beiming, you..."

After Venerable Silver Horn left, Venerable Qianwu quickly looked at his friend.

He does regret it now!

You should know that Venerable Beiming had advised him not to venture onto that primordial star again, but he just wouldn't listen!

He didn't even want to use the original treasures to slowly restore his divine power. Instead, he used the resources at his disposal to directly exchange some treasures from the clan's treasury to restore his divine power.

Unexpectedly, after he entered the Primordial Star again, he perished at the hands of the Demon Clan's Venerable Tianhua before he had gained anything.

"Qian Wu!"

The Venerable Beiming quickly asked, "How much do you owe that Venerable Silver Horn?"

"This……"

Upon hearing what Venerable Beiming said, Venerable Qianwu was stunned.

What are you doing, being so indecisive?

The Venerable Beiming immediately said in an annoyed tone, "You and I have been friends for many years, how could I stand by and watch you be forced into this situation? Tell me, how much silver coin do you owe?"

"Ugh!"

The Venerable Qianwu sighed, then couldn't help but say, "Beiming, I truly regret not listening to you before!"

"This fall was not only due to the extra resources owed to the clan from the resurrection through time reversal, but also because many treasures borrowed from friends were lost!"

"The treasure I borrowed from Silverhorn is worth about 1.5 treasure points, and I'm afraid I won't be able to pay it back for many years!"

"Qianwu, you've got some nerve! How dare you borrow such a precious treasure!"

Upon hearing Qianwu's words, Venerable Beiming was slightly startled: "Alright, with the gains from this adventure on the Primordial Star, I now have a total of 0.8 Treasure Points. I originally intended to save them up to buy a Treasure Armor, but I'll lend them all to you to repay that Venerable Silver Horn!"

"Beiming, you..."

After hearing what Venerable Beiming said, Venerable Qianwu was deeply moved.

It should be noted that the entire fortune of Venerable Beiming is estimated to be no more than two Treasure Points. Lending him 0.8 Treasure Points is already equivalent to a small portion of his fortune.

"Qianwu, why have you become so sentimental?"

After transferring the Treasure Points directly to Venerable Qianwu, Venerable Beiming said, "Remember to collect enough Treasure Points to return to Silver Horn as soon as possible, otherwise, if too much time passes, the clan might just take them away!"

“I understand!” Venerable Qianwu quickly nodded and said.

Next, three more cosmic venerables approached Venerable Qianwu.

It must be said that although Venerable Qianwu was unlucky, he had many good friends, and they were very loyal.

These three cosmic venerables sought out Venerable Qianwu for help after witnessing the conflict between Venerable Qianwu and Venerable Yinjiao.

From these three cosmic venerables, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom obtained a loan of over a thousand treasure points.

Next, Venerable Qianwu borrowed some resources from several close friends, and then exchanged them for a similar treasure from the human race's treasury, returning it to Venerable Silverhorn.

……

Lu Qingshan was naturally unaware that Venerable Qianwu had borrowed resources from his friend.

At this moment, he had once again arrived at the treasure trove of the human race in the initial universe.

The bronze gate slowly opened, and Lu Qingshan stepped inside. Then the bronze gate slowly closed.

"let's start!"

Lu Qingshan waved his hand!

Wow!
Immediately, the treasures floated in mid-air in front of Lu Qingshan, and then drifted directly to the blue stone plate located in the center of the side hall.

Countless cyan rays of light quickly rose up and enveloped all the treasures that Lu Qingshan had taken out.

These treasures were all Lu Qingshan's gains during his adventures on the Primordial Star over the past period of time. Most of them were various important treasures and some resources to restore divine power.

After all, those cosmic venerables he killed would not have been able to carry many treasures when they ventured to the original planet.

Aside from protective treasures, the most one could carry were treasures that could quickly restore divine power.

Of course, among these treasures, there are also more than a dozen ordinary treasures, which are basically the spoils he obtained after killing those alien universe overlords, and two treasures that came from the original star.

"If all these treasures are contributed to the clan's treasury, they should be enough to exchange for a decent flying palace-type treasure!" Lu Qingshan couldn't help but think to himself as he watched the azure light completely envelop the many treasures.

Of all the treasures he gained this time, Lu Qingshan gave away all the other treasures except for a suitable ordinary treasure armor for his second clone.

Then, a gentle voice kept ringing in Lu Qingshan's ears.

"One common treasure of the domain category. Contributing it to the clan will yield a total of 279 treasure points. Lu Qingshan, would you like to contribute this treasure to the clan's treasury?"

"One ordinary treasure armor, contributed to the clan, will yield 1.8 treasure points. Lu Qingshan, would you like to contribute this treasure to the clan's treasury?"

……

After Lu Qingshan nodded in agreement, a crack quickly appeared on the blue stone disc, and all the treasures were then collected inside.

At the same time, Lu Qingshan's account also gained an extra 29.6 Treasure Points!

"29.6 Treasure Points!"

Looking at his rapidly increasing wealth, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but exclaim, "I've only been adventuring on that primitive planet for such a short time, and the wealth I've gained has already surpassed what I accumulated over the long years!"

"Although it can't yet match the value of the Nine Dragons Overlord Armor, it's not far off!"

After sighing, Lu Qingshan quickly opened the exchange page for flying palace-type treasures.

It has to be said that flying palace-type treasures are really too expensive.

The cheapest flying palace-type treasure in the human race's treasury costs twenty treasure points, while the most expensive costs over eighty treasure points.

As for the high-level flying palace type treasures, the cheapest one costs a full 205 treasure points!
"Looks like I'm still too poor!" Looking at the many treasures in the human race's treasury, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but sigh.

After browsing through the many ordinary treasures of the flying palace type, Lu Qingshan quickly chose one that had both sealing and suppressing functions and was also suitable for him: the Xuanlei Tribulation Avoidance Tower!

　I've seen people say that my relationship has taken up my writing time, which is really unfair.

　　Almost all the time I squeeze out is work time.

　　As for updates, as mentioned in the summary, last month's updates totaled 250,000 words, averaging 8,000 words per day, which is already quite good.

　　With this chapter finished, I'll have 70,000 words updated this month, which isn't a small amount.

　　I am aware of everyone's concern for me.

　　I'm sure I won't get my gold coins stolen!

　　The reason I asked for help was because the girl was crying and I didn't know how to comfort her.

　　I should go back to apologize to the girl tomorrow, but I'll try to write two more chapters, though the second chapter will probably be written in the early hours of the morning.
