Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 353 Lawrence's God-Slaying Array Diagram
The Golden Horn Clan adapted to the new environment very quickly. After building the continent of Laseo, the entire Golden Horn Clan quickly and completely adapted.

In fact, most of the Golden Horned Tribe members are quite satisfied with living on the continent of Laseo.

After all, the cosmic energy in the secret cosmic realm that Lu Qingshan chose for them was extremely rich, much richer than the remote territory where they used to live.

However, this can be considered a unique feature of the cosmic secret realm.

Of course, even if the cosmic energy is more abundant, the secret realm where they now live is far inferior to the remote territory where they used to live.

Even though that remote territory is remote, it is still a true cosmic territory, and its scope is incredibly vast.

Although this cosmic secret realm is also very vast, most of the Golden Horned people can only live on the continent of Lasio, which is a few light-years in diameter.

Countless Golden Horn Clan members were born on this continent. The cosmic essence they absorbed during their gestation was far less than that in their original remote territories, and their future growth potential would naturally be limited to a certain extent.

Although one can cultivate to the Immortal Realm like an ordinary person, it would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to break through to the Universe Venerable Realm in the future.

As a super strong person among the human race, Lu Qingshan naturally knew about this matter long ago, but he could not allow the Golden Horn Clan to thrive and multiply within the vast territory of the Myriad Worlds Universe Kingdom.

After all, the territory within the myriad universes is limited. If the Golden Horn Clan occupies a territory, then the human race will naturally occupy one less territory.

Although he has a close relationship with the Golden Horn tribe, it is not worth sacrificing the interests of the human race for him.

After dealing with the migration of the Golden Horn Clan, Lu Qingshan quickly turned his attention back to his own cultivation.

After all, he is now only one step away from fully comprehending the complete Law of Thunder-Time Fusion, so naturally he needs to put more effort into it and strive to break through to the level of the Lord of the Universe as soon as possible.

And so time continued to flow by, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of years had passed.

That day, Lu Qingshan was cultivating in seclusion in his mansion when he suddenly received an email from his disciple Lawrence.

"Lawrence?"

With a thought, Lu Qingshan directly connected his consciousness to the virtual universe and appeared in his mansion halfway up Thunder Island.

As Lu Qingshan's personal disciple, Lawrence naturally had the authority to enter Lu Qingshan's residence, so he was already waiting in the living room of Lu Qingshan's residence.

Upon seeing Lu Qingshan appear, Lawrence quickly and respectfully knelt down, saying, "Disciple greets Master!"

"Ok!"

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, then asked directly, "Lawrence, didn't you recently team up with Star Fury Venerable of the Giant Axe Arena lineage to venture onto that primordial star? Why do you suddenly have time to come here to your teacher? Did you encounter some trouble?"

Lawrence was the first of Lu Qingshan's many disciples to break through to the Universe Venerable realm. Moreover, when he was at the Realm Lord level, he relied on Lu Qingshan's help to possess a special Realm Lord-level life form in the human race's treasure trove whose life gene level was two thousand times that of ordinary life in the universe!
Although Lawrence was unable to create clones after possessing this special life form, he was able to possess extremely terrifying strength by relying on its powerful life gene level.

In fact, possession is quite common among human populations.

Of course, possession also has some dangers and drawbacks!
First, possession can only occur under immortal gods, and when possession happens, one can only possess a powerful being whose realm is no weaker than one's own, otherwise the other's body simply cannot bear the powerful soul of the person being possessed.
Secondly, if the body is possessed by a race with high talent, the difficulty of breaking through to the realm of immortal gods in the future will be greatly increased.

For example, an ordinary human being can break through to the immortal realm as long as they comprehend the complete lower-level fundamental laws!

However, if he were to seize the bodies of the twelve peak bloodlines of the Starry Sky Beast with the help of other powerful beings, then in order to break through and become an immortal god, in addition to comprehending a lower-level primordial law, he would also need to have extremely high achievements in a higher-level primordial law!
If the being possessed is a special life form, or the Zerg Queen, then the requirements for comprehending the laws to break through to the immortal realm are even higher!

Therefore, possession is something that only super geniuses with powerful connections can do.

They need someone to help them successfully possess another body, and after successfully possessing another body, they also need to have enough ability to break through to the realm of immortal gods.

Among the targets of possession by these unparalleled geniuses, there are generally only two choices.

One is to possess a special life form with an extremely high level of life genes, like Lawrence, thereby greatly enhancing one's combat power;
The second is like Lu Mingrui, who possesses the bodies of ordinary races that can create clones, or special life forms with lower levels of life genes, etc.

Of course, there are also special life forms in the universe with extremely high genetic levels that are also capable of creating clones.

However, such special life forms are extremely rare, and the probability of them being successfully captured by powerful human beings is even smaller.

Moreover, once captured, such a special life form would likely be quickly exchanged for by other powerful beings (the Lords of the Universe), and it would be impossible for it to remain in the human race's treasury for a long time to await exchange.

In fact, that's not all. As time goes by, the number of special life forms available for possession in the human race's treasure trove is also constantly decreasing.

After all, special life forms are extremely rare, and those that can be possessed and captured by human groups are even rarer.

As it is continuously consumed, it will naturally become less and less.

Moreover, neither method is inherently better or worse.

Those like Lu Mingrui who created clones only have a chance to start over after the clones perish.

However, those like Lawrence, who have possessed powerful and special life forms, can gain great strength in a short period of time. Under the same conditions, the life-saving ability of the main war god body will also be stronger!
Just like now, Lawrence chose to nurture a special life clone with a life gene level two thousand times higher, so he was able to possess the strength of a high-level cosmic venerable shortly after breaking through!

However, Lu Mingrui's main battle clone, under the same conditions as Lawrence, including comprehension of laws, secret techniques, and protective treasures, could only unleash the strength of a mid-level universe venerable.

"Master, I haven't encountered any major trouble!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Lawrence quickly replied, "This disciple has come to see Master today because there is something else I would like to discuss with you!"

"Oh?"

After hearing Lawrence's words, Lu Qingshan quickly said, "Speak!"

"That's right, teacher!"

Lawrence quickly replied, "I previously ventured onto that primordial star with Venerable Star Fury from the Giant Axe Arena lineage. Although our gains were relatively small, we didn't encounter any major dangers!"

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly.

As time goes by, the probability of finding treasures on the original planet becomes lower and lower. Without precious treasures, it is naturally difficult for major battles to occur.

Lawrence continued, "But just three days ago, my disciple and Venerable Star Fury made a great discovery on Primal Star No. 05643!"

"After a fierce battle, I and Venerable Xingnu obtained a special crystal from the powerful members of the Prison Clan and the Northern Frontier Alliance. Later, after investigation, we learned that the crystal was a token of the God-Slaying Temple!"

"A token of the Temple of Godslayers?"

After hearing Lawrence's words, Lu Qingshan was slightly taken aback.

During the opening of the Primordial Star, many temples containing treasures will randomly appear.

For example, the Qishen Temple in the original work, the Sword Tomb which contains Jian Heluo, and the Qingguang Temple that Lu Qingshan participated in before, etc...

The most precious of these is undoubtedly the supreme treasure of the pinnacle domain level, which only appears once each time the Primordial Star opens. Now, the super treasure from this Primordial Star opening has fallen into the hands of the human race.

But beneath this, there are palaces containing other precious treasures.

For example, Jian Heluo from the original novel, the Azure Light Divine Sword that Lu Qingshan acquired before, etc...

Inside the God-Slaying Hall, a super treasure emerged, just like the Sword River Luo in the original story, which was much more precious than the Azure Light Divine Sword that Lu Qingshan had previously obtained!
Fifteen thousand years ago, a magnificent temple called the Temple of God Slaughter appeared on the original star number 04793.

When the Temple of Gods Execution was created, a stone tablet also appeared in front of its palace, recording some information about the Temple of Gods Execution...

The Temple of Godslaying will yield many treasures, including a small number of ordinary supreme treasures, a very small number of high-level supreme treasures, and the most precious of all, a component of the top-tier domain-class supreme treasure, the 'Godslaying Array Diagram'.

The God-Slaying Array Diagram consists of two parts: the array diagram and the array artifacts.

There is only one array diagram, which is the main component. When used alone, its power is equivalent to that of an ordinary domain-type supreme treasure. There are twelve array artifacts in total. When used individually, each of them is equivalent to an ordinary supreme treasure, but they can be integrated into the array diagram to enhance its power.

Each time an array artifact is integrated, the power of the array diagram increases. The more array artifacts integrated, the stronger the array diagram becomes.

Once all twelve array artifacts are integrated into the array diagram, it becomes the complete top-tier domain-class treasure, the "God-Slaying Array Diagram." Once activated, it transforms into a vast killing array with overwhelming power!

Although Lu Qingshan has been focusing on cultivation recently, he occasionally gathers with other powerful individuals in the virtual universe, so he has naturally heard about the God-Slaying Array Diagram.

He had only listened to it as a story, but now his disciple had actually obtained a token from the Temple of Gods Execution?

It should be noted that there are only sixty-four tokens in the Temple of Gods Execution, and each one was comparable to a supreme treasure when it was created.

Lawrence is currently only at the level of a high-level cosmic venerable, so obtaining a token is an absolutely incredible thing.

"Yes!"

Lawrence continued, "After learning that the crystal was a token of the Temple of Godslaying, the disciple and Venerable Starfury immediately fled, intending to leave the Primordial Star directly through the vortex passage!"

"However, the powerful team from the Northern Frontier Alliance also recognized the token of the God-Slaying Temple, so my disciple and Venerable Star Fury were quickly surrounded and intercepted by many powerful figures from the Northern Frontier Alliance."

"Fortunately, this disciple and Venerable Starfury encountered Venerable Ancestral Tree from the Giant Axe Arena, and with Venerable Ancestral Tree's help, we were able to escape successfully!"

"So that's it!"

After hearing Lawrence's words, Lu Qingshan suddenly realized what was going on.

With the strength of the Ancestral Tree Venerable, it would be no problem for him to seize a token of the God-Slaying Palace. Even if the Northern Frontier Alliance sent out a Universe Lord, they might not be able to do anything to him.

Moreover, as a powerful figure among the human race, the Ancestral Tree Venerable would naturally not stand by and watch those alien universe lords attack him.

Then, Lu Qingshan asked again, "Lawrence, who has the token of the Temple of Gods Execution now?"

"It's right in my hands!"

Lawrence quickly replied, "Because of my enormous divine body, I contributed more when adventuring on the Primordial Star with Venerable Star Wrath, and naturally received a larger share of the spoils. Therefore, the right to dispose of the God-Slaying Temple token has fallen into my hands!"

"I originally intended to contribute it directly to the treasure trove of our human race, but then I thought that you might need it, so I came here to you!"

"If you need it, Master, I am willing to offer you the token of the Temple of Godslaying; if you do not need it, Master, I will contribute it to the treasure trove of our human race!"

"This……"

After hearing Lawrence's words, Lu Qingshan hesitated for a moment.

His current strength is indeed very strong. With the help of many treasures, his strength is comparable to that of a top-tier universe overlord, and his ability to protect himself even surpasses that of an ordinary universe lord!

With such strength, one might have a chance of succeeding in vying for a top-tier treasure weapon like the Azure Light Divine Sword, and even if one fails, there will be other gains.

What are the main components of the top-tier Arcana-class artifacts?
It should be noted that top-tier domain-level treasures are even more precious than ordinary peak-level treasures, weapons, and armor, and even most universe lords cannot equip them.

Even if it's just a part of such a supreme treasure, it would definitely attract a large number of universe lords to fight over it.

With the abilities of the Lords of the Universe, even without obtaining the token of the Temple of Godslaying, they could simply wait on the original star numbered 04793 after the Temple of Godslaying opened.

Once the Temple of Godslaying reopens, and someone emerges carrying components of the Godslaying Array Diagram, they can then compete for them.

"It's really too much of a stretch for a top-tier cosmic overlord to compete for the main components of the God-Slaying Array Diagram!"

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but think to himself, "But treasures of this level are extremely rare and hard to come by. If I miss this opportunity, I might have to wait until the next time the Primordial Star opens!"

"And when the Primordial Star opens again next time, I may not be able to obtain such a token!"

It's important to understand that even within human groups, there is a great deal of competition.

The reason he has this opportunity now is because the person who obtained the token of the Temple of Godslayer is his disciple Lawrence, and he has always treated Lawrence very well over the countless years.

Even after Lawrence broke through to the realm of the Cosmic Venerable, he bestowed upon him several precious treasures.

Even when Lawrence ventured to that primordial planet, he bestowed upon him an ordinary treasure armor to save his life!
That's why Lawrence rushed to him immediately after obtaining the token from the Temple of Annihilation to ask if he needed it!
If he misses this opportunity, even if he breaks through to the realm of the Lord of the Universe in the future, he may not be able to obtain such an opportunity again in a short period of time.

After all, top-tier domain-level treasures are extremely precious in the universe. Even if a powerful member of the human race obtains such a token, many universe lords will still vie for it!
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and after thinking for a while, Lu Qingshan finally made a decision!

He looked directly at his disciple and said, "Lawrence, I really have to thank you this time!"

"That token of the Temple of Godslayers is indeed very useful to me. Please send it directly to my residence later!"

Lu Qingshan did not promise any reward. After all, Lawrence was his disciple, and even if he could not gain anything from this trip, he would certainly not treat him unfairly.

If he can gain something, then Lawrence will certainly get no less than Venerable Fei Yu and Venerable Golden Axe!
"is teacher!"

Lawrence quickly nodded and said, "This disciple is currently at the headquarters of my Virtual Universe Company on the continent. I will deliver the token of the God-Slaying Temple to you, Master, shortly!"

……

Ten minutes later, Lu Qingshan was in the living room of his mansion at the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company on the mainland.

"Teacher, this is the token of the Temple of Gods Execution!"

Lawrence, who had shrunk his body to a little over ten meters, waved his hand, and a seemingly ordinary transparent crystal, about the size of a fist, appeared in front of Lu Qingshan.

In fact, Lawrence faced a great deal of pressure when he handed over the token of the Temple of Gods to his teacher, Lu Qingshan.

After all, after being rescued by the Venerable Ancestral Tree, the Venerable Ancestral Tree showed some interest in the token of the God-Slaying Temple and even wanted to exchange it for other treasures.

After he refused the Venerable Ancestral Tree, he received an email from the Lord of the Lanzang lineage of the Giant Axe Arena, who also wanted to exchange the token of the God-Slaying Temple in his possession.

On the other side, Lu Qingshan looked at the transparent crystal with 108 smooth facets in front of him, and a smile quickly appeared on his face.

With a wave of his hand, Lu Qingshan stored the token of the Temple of Gods Execution into his personal world ring and quickly exclaimed, "Lawrence, it seems you're still quite lucky!"

"During this opening of the Primordial Star, hundreds of temples have emerged, but our human race has only obtained a little over twenty temple tokens!"

"The token of the God-Slaying Palace that you obtained is already considered very precious among all the tokens, even more precious than the token of the Azure Light Palace that I obtained back then!"

"I am able to achieve such results because of your help, Master!"

Lawrence quickly and respectfully replied, "If it weren't for the fact that you bestowed upon me a supreme suit of armor, I might not have dared to venture onto that primordial planet!"

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing Lawrence's words, Lu Qingshan immediately smiled and said, "I am your teacher, so naturally I hope that your strength will continue to grow!"

"Your understanding of the laws is still very low. Once your understanding of the laws is higher in the future, with your powerful life gene level, you may become the new top cosmic overlord of our human race!"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Lawrence quickly nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, teacher. I will certainly work hard!"

Next, Lu Qingshan chatted with his disciple Lawrence about some other trivial matters before Lawrence took his leave.
