Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 406 Commanding the Passage of Time

After meeting with many of the universe's lords from the human race, Lu Qingshan quickly sent emails to his children, disciples, and family members, including Lu Hongwen and Hoggs.

He enslaved the Netherworld Demon Venerable within the Ancestral God Sect this time, and the powerful demon race will definitely retaliate against him.

With Lu Qingshan's own strength, even if the two strongest demon ancestors of the universe were to take action, they would not be able to pose any threat to him. Therefore, what he is most worried about now is Lu Hongwen and Hoggs and the others.

Under these circumstances, he naturally had to return the instructions to Lu Hongwen, Hoggs, and others.

This time, Lu Qingshan didn't notify a large number of people, but they were all his close disciples and juniors.

This includes three individuals at the Cosmic Venerable level: three disciples under Lu Qingshan—Lawrence, Lu Mingrui, and the recently breakthrough Straitch…

The six who were granted the title of Immortal King included three family descendants—Lu Zixuan, Lu Pingan, and Lu Yuhua—as well as three direct disciples—Hoggs, Scripps, and Kemotima…

Below the title of King of Immortality are Lu Qingshan's wife Karina, Lu Hongwen and other children, and his fifth disciple, Aina.

With the abundant cultivation resources provided by Lu Qingshan, Lu Hongwen, Lu Hongyuan, Aina, and others still have a chance to break through to the Marquis level if they cultivate diligently.
However, to reach the King level in terms of understanding the laws, one must comprehend the essence of the fundamental laws of time or space. With the talent and comprehension of Lu Hongwen and others, it is obviously difficult to achieve this, even with the numerous cultivation resources provided by Lu Qingshan.

Just as various thoughts flashed through Lu Qingshan's mind, Lu Hongwen, Hoggs, and others arrived at Lu Qingshan's luxurious mansion on the Myriad Realms Continent after receiving his email.

It is worth mentioning that even after Lu Mingrui took over as the ruler of the Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom, he did not change the name of the Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom to Cangming Universe Kingdom, but continued to use the name Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom.

Among the many disciples, Lu Mingrui and Lawrence were the first to arrive.

Because they had already learned from several friends in the Ancestral God Sect about Lu Qingshan's enslavement of the Nether Demon Venerable, they knew that Lu Qingshan would definitely have something to tell them, so they rushed over immediately after receiving the news.

"Disciple pays homage to teacher!"

Lawrence and Lu Mingrui, who arrived together, immediately knelt down respectfully before Lu Qingshan as soon as they appeared in the mansion.

"Okay, get up!"

Lu Qingshan waved for Lawrence and the other man to stand up, then said with a smile, "Mingrui, has anything happened in the Universe Kingdom recently?"

"Teacher, everything is still peaceful within the universe!"

Lu Mingrui quickly said, "Not long ago, a remarkable genius emerged in our Myriad Realms Universe. He entered the Giant Axe Arena as the top-ranked student in the Peak Genius Battle, and he even passed the fourth level of the Bridge to Heaven as soon as he entered Chaos City to cultivate!"

"You passed the fourth level of the Bridge to Heaven as soon as you entered Chaos City?"

After hearing Lu Mingrui's words, Lu Qingshan was slightly surprised: "It seems that this little guy has quite a bit of talent!"

It's worth noting that in the original story, when Bolan first entered Chaos City, he had only passed the third level of the Bridge to Heaven.

Just like those peerless geniuses who emerge only once every tens of millions of epochs, when they first enter Chaos City, they usually only pass through the fifth level of the Bridge to Heaven.

This genius from the Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom was able to pass through the fourth level of the Heavenly Bridge as soon as he entered Chaos City, making him arguably the most powerful genius since the establishment of the Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom.

"It's a pity that the little guy joined the Giant Axe Arena lineage!"

Lu Mingrui continued, "So in the end, he became a disciple of the Lone Shadow Venerable of the Giant Axe Arena!"

"It doesn't matter!"

Lu Qingshan immediately smiled and said, "No matter which faction they belong to, they are all strong members of our human race!"

"Since this little guy is from our Myriad Worlds Universe Kingdom, we might as well take better care of him in the future, especially his family. We shouldn't let those alien spies infiltrate too much!"

Many of those alien spies who assassinated human geniuses did so by targeting their families.

"is teacher!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's instructions, Lu Mingrui quickly nodded and said yes.

While Lu Qingshan was talking with Lu Mingrui and Lawrence, Lu Hongyuan, Hoggs and others arrived at Lu Qingshan's residence one after another. Lu Qingshan quickly told everyone about how he had enslaved the Demon Lord of the Demon Clan.

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, no one complained.

After all, if it weren't for Lu Qingshan, these people would not have reached their current level.

People like Hoggs would never have had the chance to become immortal kings, and as for people like Lu Hongwen, they wouldn't even be able to break through to become immortals. They would probably have already perished in the long passage of time.

"This time I have enslaved the soul of that demon clan's Nether Demon Venerable, and the demon clan will definitely retaliate!"

After giving a brief account of the situation, Lu Qingshan quickly continued, "You are all close to me, and the demon race is very likely to make you their primary targets!"

"So for the next period of time, you must be more discreet and cautious when you're venturing into the universe!"

"Your son (disciple) understands!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Lu Hongwen and Hoggs quickly and respectfully responded.

"For the next period of time, one of my avatars will be stationed in the Myriad Realms Universe!"

Lu Qingshan said again, "So you should be relatively safe within the Myriad Realms Universe!"

"In addition, some spies lurking within the universe will definitely carry out assassinations more frequently!"

"Hoggs, I'm leaving this matter to you. From now on, communicate closely with the company's intelligence department and do your best to minimize the losses!"

"Disciple understands!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Hoggs quickly and respectfully responded.

After giving all the instructions, Lu Qingshan quickly turned to his disciple Streich: "Stretch, you did well this time. You've finally broken through to the Cosmic Venerable realm!"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Streich immediately replied respectfully, "I am able to break through to the Cosmic Venerable realm thanks to your guidance, Master!"

"Ok!"

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, then continued, "Stretch, your life gene level has been raised to the limit of a hundred times that of ordinary life in the universe. After this breakthrough, you won't need to spend any resources on it! Come to my place later, I've prepared some things for you!"

"is teacher!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Streich quickly nodded in delight.

He knew very well that after breaking through to the Universe Venerable realm, Lu Qingshan would definitely bestow some resources and treasures upon him.

Lu Qingshan, who noticed Streich's expression, didn't care too much, because he was going to give Streich some resources anyway.

Although he doesn't have many resources left, it's still easy for him to bestow them upon a newly advanced Universe Venerable.

After giving Lu Hongwen and Hoggs some more instructions, Lu Qingshan waved for them to leave.

Half a day later, disciple Streich also arrived at Lu Qingshan's mansion in reality.

Upon meeting Streich, Lu Qingshan quickly handed over a piece of treasure armor that he had exchanged for in the clan's treasury at a cost of 3 treasure points.

After arranging everything, Lu Qingshan began to think about his next plan.

"Now that we've taken care of the third brother and the others, the demon race's retaliation isn't worth paying too much attention to!"

Lu Qingshan thought to himself, "What I need to do most right now is to continue to comprehend and integrate the laws, create the strongest secret technique for the Lord of the Universe, and also accumulate more resources to improve my own life gene level and exchange for more powerful protective treasures!" "Only in this way, after I create the strongest secret technique for the Lord of the Universe, can I step into the top level of the fourth tier in one fell swoop!"

With this in mind, Lu Qingshan quickly connected his consciousness to the virtual universe and headed to the mansion of the Lord of Yanshan, the lineage of the First Bank of the Universe, in Hongmeng City.

"Hahaha, myriad realms, you're here, why aren't you coming in yet?"

Upon seeing Lu Qingshan appear at the entrance of his mansion, the Lord of Yanshan, dressed in a dark blue ancient armor, quickly came out to greet him with a hearty laugh.

"Without Yan Shan's approval, I wouldn't dare trespass on your residence!"

As Lu Qingshan spoke with a smile, he stepped into the living room of the mansion at the invitation of the Lord of Yanshan.

Then, the Lord of Yanshan smiled and poured Lu Qingshan a full cup of fine wine before asking with a smile, "Myriad Realms, what brings you here all of a sudden?"

"Yonsan!"

Lu Qingshan quickly smiled and said, "During the previous gathering, I heard you say that you planned to venture into the Cosmic Sea!"

"That's right!"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words, the Lord of Yanshan quickly smiled and said, "When the Primordial Star opened last time, I fought a great battle with the Demon Lord of the Northern Frontier Alliance in order to compete for a top-tier treasure armor. It took me a long time to replenish my divine power to a perfect state!"

"I've had a period of rest and recuperation recently, and now that the Primal Star is closed, I plan to try my luck in the Cosmic Sea again!"

"Actually, the reason I came to see you this time, Yanshan, is because I know you plan to venture into the Cosmic Sea, so I invited you to come along!"

Lu Qingshan quickly replied, "You possess a top-tier palace-type treasure, and I possess a top-tier domain-type treasure. If the two of us can join forces, our journey through the cosmic sea will definitely be safer and smoother!"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's invitation, the Lord of Yanshan immediately became interested: "Myriad Realms, I heard from Qingdong that you were adventuring in the Cosmic Sea with the Lord of Lang'an. Why are you suddenly inviting me now?"

"Lang'an lost a lot of divine power while venturing into the cosmic sea, so he has now returned to the primordial universe to recuperate!"

Lu Qingshan quickly said, "Moreover, we had a very good harvest before, and he needs some time to digest it. I estimate that he won't be going to the Cosmic Sea again for a long time to come!"

"You powerful beings who can create clones are much more comfortable!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, the Lord of Yanshan couldn't help but sigh, "Even if one of the clones loses divine power, the other clones can slowly recover!"

“Strong individuals like myself and Lang'an, who do not have clones, will need to return to a safe area to recuperate for a long time once they lose too much divine power!”

Hearing this, Lu Qingshan felt a pang of emotion.

Since obtaining the Endless Divine Sea Avatar, he has maintained a significant advantage among experts of the same level.

This was true at the Immortal God stage, the Cosmic Venerable stage, and even now at the Cosmic Lord stage!

However, for other universe masters, even those with the ability to create clones, it would take a long time to recover once their divine power is severely depleted.

After all, the divine power of a cosmic lord is so pure and vast. Once it is depleted, even with the help of a primordial treasure, it is difficult to fully recover in a short period of time.

"Myriad Realms, you've invited me to explore the cosmic sea together, so I certainly won't refuse!"

Just as various thoughts flashed through Lu Qingshan's mind, the Lord of Yanshan continued, "However, I still want to ask which region in the Cosmic Sea you plan to venture into. If it's a region that's too dangerous, I dare not go there!"

Since the Lord of Yanshan has no clones, he must be even more concerned about his own safety.

"Of course not!"

Lu Qingshan quickly shook his head and said, "My strength isn't that great right now. If I go to those dangerous areas, even if I can survive against other powerful people, it will be difficult to snatch any treasures. So it's better to go to some ordinary dangerous areas!"

"Lang'an and I have been exploring the Flowing Fire Domain, and we've had quite a good time. If you don't mind, Yanshan, we can continue exploring the Flowing Fire Domain!"

"Of course, if Yanshan wants to venture into other regions, I have no problem with that!"

"The Blazing Fire Domain?"

After listening to Lu Qingshan's answer, the Lord of Yanshan pondered for a moment before continuing, "Myriad Realms, actually I previously roamed the Azure Light Sea region, so I am very familiar with the Azure Light Sea region!"

"Besides, the Dark Core Lord of the Hong Alliance is also venturing into the Azure Sea region! If we go to the Azure Sea region, the Dark Core Lord can look out for us. What do you think?"

“No problem!” Lu Qingshan quickly nodded in agreement.

The danger level of the Azure Sea region is not much different from that of the Flowing Fire Region. The Lord of Dark Core is a fourth-order alien universe lord within the Hong Alliance, whose strength is completely comparable to that of the Lord of Ice Peak!
If he and the Lord of Yanshan were to venture into the Azure Sea region, it would definitely be safer than venturing into the Flowing Fire Domain.

Moreover, for Lu Qingshan now, his purpose in venturing into the Cosmic Sea is to slowly accumulate resources, not to seek out some precious opportunities. Therefore, it makes no difference whether he goes to the Azure Light Sea region or the Flowing Fire Domain.

"In that case, myriad realms, you'll have to wait three years!"

Upon seeing that Lu Qingshan agreed to venture into the Azure Sea region, the Lord of Yanshan quickly said, "I will make some preparations. Three years later, the two of us will go to the Cosmic Sea together, how about that?"

“No problem!” Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said.

Three years is but a fleeting moment for cosmic rulers like them, whose lifespans are eternal.

Moreover, the Lord of Yanshan is extremely powerful. Although he has not created the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe, his life gene level has been increased by nearly ten thousand times. He also possesses many precious treasures, making him one of the best among the third-tier Lords of the Universe.

In addition, with the top-tier palace-type treasure in the possession of the Lord of Yanshan, the possibility of them encountering fatal danger while venturing into the Azure Sea region is still very low.

Afterwards, Lu Qingshan discussed the distribution of spoils with the Lord of Yanshan. They decided that under normal circumstances, each of them would take 50%, and if special circumstances arose, the distribution would be adjusted accordingly.

Although Lu Qingshan's strength is somewhat weaker than that of the Lord of Yanshan, he possesses a top-tier domain-level treasure, which gives them an advantage in the competition for the treasure. Therefore, the distribution ratio is quite reasonable.

And so, after reaching an agreement, Lu Qingshan and the Lord of Yanshan set off three years later for the Azure Light Sea region within the Cosmic Sea, where they began their adventures.

However, Lu Qingshan's luck was not as good as it was when he and the Lord of Yanshan were adventuring in the Azure Sea region this time.

The two of them had been traversing the Azure Sea region for millions of epochs, and had only encountered the scene of a top-tier treasure being born once.

Moreover, when that top-tier treasure was born, Lu Qingshan and the Lord of Yanshan also encountered the Lord of An Yong of the Divine Eye Clan.

This Lord of An Yong not only possesses fourth-tier strength, but also a super-powerful divine body, top-tier domain-level treasures, and more...

More importantly, because the Lord of An Yong was a powerful figure from the first cycle of reincarnation, he knew that his lifespan was coming to an end, so he always acted extremely recklessly.

Lu Qingshan and his companion fought with the other party for a long time, but in the end, the other party still managed to take away the top-level treasure that had been born.

Even after seizing the treasure, the Lord of Anyong was still unwilling to let Lu Qingshan and his companion go. Lu Qingshan originally wanted to continue to wear down the Lord of Anyong, but firstly, the Lord of Anyong also possessed a super-large divine body clone, and secondly, he was worried that other powerful members of the Divine Eye Clan would arrive. Therefore, Lu Qingshan and the Lord of Yanshan ultimately took the top-tier palace-type treasure, Yanshan Palace, and left the battlefield first.

Of course, not getting any top-tier treasures doesn't mean that Lu Qingshan and the Lord of Yanshan didn't gain anything else.

During these millions of epochs, Lu Qingshan and his companion encountered several high-grade treasures, more than ten ordinary treasures, and some precious materials.

All these treasures combined are worth nearly two hundred Treasure Points.

When distributed equally, both Lu Qingshan and the Lord of Yanshan will receive nearly a hundred treasure points.

This rate of resource acquisition is relatively slow for Lu Qingshan, but the Lord of Yanshan already thinks it's quite good.
