Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 489 A Sudden Retreat with Unexpected Gains
hum!
With a thought, Lu Qingshan drew the silver battle blade into his hand with the divine power that emanated from him.

Looking at the silver battle blade in his hand, Lu Qingshan was filled with emotion.

This silver battle blade was given to him when he asked the Starry Sky Beast for guidance. Its power is quite good among top-tier treasure weapons. If it were contributed to the human race's treasury, he could probably get around three thousand treasure points.

Lu Qingshan himself never expected that this battle sword would return to his hands in such a way.

"Lord of All Realms!"

The Starry Sky Beast Ancestor casually glanced at the powerful figures who had gathered around him, and then said, "Now that this matter is over, I will take my leave!"

Before he finished speaking, the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor flashed and appeared in front of the three Golden Horn Lords not far away.

"Ancestor!"

"Ancestor!"

Upon seeing the progenitor of the starry sky beast appear before them, the three Golden Horn Lords quickly greeted him respectfully.

But the Primordial Star Beast directly commanded, "Let's go!"

"Ancestor!"

After hearing the instructions from the progenitor of the starry sky behemoths, the Lord of Destruction couldn't help but ask, "Are we just going to leave like this?"

"What else can we do if we don't leave?"

The Primordial Star Beast immediately said coldly, "Do we intend to continue fighting the Lord of All Realms and only benefit other forces?"

After saying this, the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor did not wait for the three Golden Horn Lords to refute him. He immediately released a divine power that swept over the three of them and flew away into the distance.

The three leaders of the Golden Horned Clan naturally dared not resist and could only let the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor lead them away.

After the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor left with the Golden Horned Lord and the other two, Lu Qingshan glanced at the other powerful figures around him and immediately transformed into a streak of light, flying off in another direction.

And just then...

Wow!

A white, misty domain blocked Lu Qingshan's path, followed by a gentle voice that entered his mind: "Lord of All Realms, please wait a moment. My clan's True Lord wishes to see you!"

"Ok?"

Lu Qingshan immediately turned his head to look in the direction from which the voice came: "The Lord of Midi of the Divine Eye Clan?"

"Lord of Midi!"

Lu Qingshan quickly transmitted his voice and said, "I have important business to attend to when I return to the Primal Universe. How about I go see your Divine Eye Clan True Lord after I've finished dealing with this?"

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Midi couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

The third and seventh True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan are on their way, all for the supreme treasure in the hands of the Lord of All Realms. How could he let the Lord of All Realms leave so easily?

However, the Lord of All Realms' current strength was far beyond what he could withstand, so he could only try to find other ways to buy time.

"Lord of All Realms!"

The Lord of Midi immediately transmitted his voice again, saying, "Please give my Divine Eye Clan some face!"

"Hahaha, is this how your Divine Eye Clan invites guests?"

With a thought, Lu Qingshan instantly unleashed the Myriad Realms Unification Diagram, shattering the white, boundless domain blocking his path in a mere moment.

The Lord of Midi is merely a fourth-order Universe Lord. Even though he is a member of the Divine Eye Clan, he does not possess a top-tier Domain-type treasure for protection. Naturally, the top-tier Domain-type treasure he uses cannot withstand the Myriad Realms Unification Diagram.

However, Lu Qingshan did not take this opportunity to attack the Lord of Midi and others.

Firstly, attacking the Lord of Midi and the others would waste his time, and other powerful figures might arrive soon.
Secondly, Lu Qingshan currently has a fairly good relationship with several universe lords of the Divine Eye Clan, and he still has some plans for the Divine Eye Clan in the future, so he is unwilling to break ties with the Divine Eye Clan now.

Therefore, Lu Qingshan merely shattered the domain cast by the Lord of Midi, and then transformed into a streak of light and flew away into the distance once more.

Meanwhile, other powerful figures who had originally intended to stop Lu Qingshan also abandoned their plans after seeing the domain unleashed by the Lord of Midi instantly shattered.

The fact that they were able to sense it in such a short time naturally indicates that they were all powerful individuals who had been venturing within the Purple Sun Realm.

Among the powerful figures who venture into the Purple Sun Realm, the strongest are generally at the level of the Midi Lord. Now, even the three Midi Lords working together cannot stop Lu Qingshan, let alone anyone else.

Of course, although Lu Qingshan left successfully, the many powerful figures present quickly relayed the news back to their respective factions.

……

After shaking off the powerful figures from other forces, Lu Qingshan quickly changed course several times during his flight to avoid being tracked down by them.

Fortunately, the journey was quite smooth, and Lu Qingshan did not encounter any powerful figures until he left the Ziyang Realm and could no longer teleport.

With the ability to teleport, traveling becomes much easier.

After multiple teleportations and several wormhole transfers, Lu Qingshan quickly returned to the original universe.

The primordial universe, a remote and desolate place.

call!
With a wave of his hand, Lu Qingshan summoned the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang, who had been hiding in the world ring he carried with him.

"Lord of All Realms!"

"Lord of All Realms!"

As soon as the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang appeared, they immediately greeted Lu Qingshan respectfully.

Their attitude was so respectful, as if they were facing the strongest beings in the universe.

It should be noted that the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang are indeed very powerful, and they also have the Three Mountains Alliance behind them.

But at this moment, Lu Qingshan was a terrifyingly powerful figure who had fought a fierce battle with the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor in the Cosmic Sea for several tens of minutes, and even made the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor retreat on its own initiative.

If a powerhouse of this caliber were willing, they could easily uproot the two of them, and even the Three Mountains Alliance behind them.

Therefore, they naturally treated Lu Qingshan with even greater respect than before.

"Lord of Haoshan, Lord of Qingsang!"

Lu Qingshan looked at the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang standing respectfully in front of him, and then said with a smile, "We have now returned to the original universe. Next, I need to return to the territory of the human race. Let's part ways here!"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words, the Lord of Qingsang immediately understood and respectfully handed a world ring to Lu Qingshan, saying, "Lord of all realms, these are the many treasures we obtained from that treasure trove!"

"Ok!"

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, then reached out and took the World Ring, and quickly sent a wisp of divine power into it.

In fact, for Lu Qingshan now, it was enough that he was able to create a top-tier sixth-order secret technique this time. As for the treasures in the world ring, they were no longer important.

Of course, although the treasure wasn't very important to him, he had put in so much effort this time, so naturally he had to take his share.

At this moment, the Lord of Qing Sang had already retrieved the mark he left on the World Ring, so after Lu Qingshan's divine power penetrated it, he quickly saw the many treasures he had obtained.

These include one top-tier Soul-type Treasure, one top-tier Domain-type Treasure, three top-tier Treasure Armors, four top-tier Treasure Weapons, and more than ten other supreme treasures…

These treasures would be extremely valuable to most powerful individuals, but they were nothing special to Lu Qingshan.

However, when Lu Qingshan's gaze fell on the ancient blue-green bronze mirror, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

This ancient bronze mirror is one of the most precious treasures among all the treasures, a supreme treasure of the highest level in the soul realm.

Logically speaking, a top-tier soul-type treasure would be nothing to Lu Qingshan, but this top-tier soul-type treasure also contained a phantom figure, which appeared to be an image left behind by its former owner.

However, Lu Qingshan did not immediately investigate in detail. Instead, he quickly said to the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang in front of him, "This treasure was left behind by at least one of the strongest beings in the universe, so our harvest this time is not bad!"

"I want this top-tier soul-type treasure, plus two top-tier treasure armors and two top-tier treasure weapons!"

Lu Qingshan quickly took out several treasures from his world ring, and then continued, "These treasures together are about half of what we've gained this time. You two can continue to divide the rest of the treasures!"

After saying this, Lu Qingshan waved his hand, and the world ring was once again sent to the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang.

However, upon witnessing this scene, neither the Lord of Haoshan nor the Lord of Qingsang accepted the World Ring. Looking at the World Ring floating before them, the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang exchanged a glance, then bowed and said, "Lord of All Realms, if it weren't for you, Qingsang and I would never have obtained the treasure on this adventure to that treasure land. We might have already perished at the hands of those powerful figures from the Starry Sky Beast Alliance!"

"Furthermore, when you, the Lord of Myriad Realms, fought against the three Golden Horned Lords and even the Ancestor of the Starry Sky Beasts, we two were unable to offer any assistance. Therefore, we two really cannot take so many of these treasures!"

"Haoshan is right!"

Lord Qing Sang nodded in agreement, saying, "In the process of competing with the Golden Horned Lord and others from the Starry Sky Beast Alliance for the supreme treasure, Hao Shan and I made virtually no contribution, so we simply cannot accept these treasures!"

"That's it!"

Lu Qingshan sighed, then took out several top-tier treasures from the world ring, and said again, "If it weren't for the two of you, I would never have encountered this treasure!"

"How about this, I'll take two-thirds of the treasure, and the rest you two can divide!"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words, the two Lords of Haoshan were about to refuse, but Lu Qingshan's attitude was very firm, so they had no choice but to agree. In the end, the Lord of Haoshan accepted the World Ring.

"Thank you, Lord of All Realms!"

After receiving the World Ring, the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang expressed their gratitude respectfully.

"It doesn't have to be this way!"

Seeing this, Lu Qingshan quickly smiled and said, "I'm about to return to the human territory, so let's part ways here!"

"If you need anything in the future, you can also contact me using the communication token!"

After chatting for a few more minutes with the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang, Lu Qingshan took his leave.

After Lu Qingshan left, only the Lord of Haoshan and the Lord of Qingsang remained.

Watching Lu Qingshan's departing figure, the two of them had endless sighs on their faces.

"Haoshan!"

The Lord of Qing Sang quickly spoke up, saying, "I really have to thank you for this. If it weren't for you, I definitely wouldn't have been able to achieve such great results!"

"Qing Sang, you're too kind!"

After hearing what the Lord of Qing Sang said, the Lord of Haoshan quickly spoke up: "Moreover, in this battle against the Lord of Jinjiao and the others, it was the Lord of Myriad Realms who contributed the most!"

"Yes!"

The Lord of Qing Sang exclaimed once again, "The Lord of Myriad Realms' strength is truly terrifying; even the Ancestor of the Starry Sky Beasts couldn't do anything to him!"

"It seems that the Lord of All Realms has already reached the sixth level of strength. I wonder when he obtained the supreme treasure he possesses!"

"This matter has little to do with us!"

The Lord of Haoshan quickly spoke up, saying, "Let's divide up the remaining treasures now!"

Upon hearing this, a thought flashed through the mind of the Lord of Qing Sang.

After hesitating for a moment, the Lord of Qing Sang finally couldn't help but ask, "Haoshan, could you give me that top-tier domain-level treasure?"

"If possible, I can do without the other treasures, and I can even give you some other treasures in return!"

Upon hearing the words of the Lord of Qing Sang, a hint of hesitation flashed across the face of the Lord of Hao Shan.

It should be noted that treasures of the peak realm level are already considered the most precious treasures below the supreme treasure level.

Even if only one treasure of this level appears each time the Primordial Star opens, the Lord of Haoshan naturally desires this supreme treasure of the peak domain category.

However, the Lord of Haoshan was also well aware that his current strength was still some distance from that of the Lord of Qingsang. Even if this top-tier domain-level treasure fell into his hands, he might not be able to keep it in the future.

After hesitating for a moment, the Lord of Haoshan quickly said, "No problem!"

"I can give you the supreme treasures of the peak realm, but you also need to help me exchange for some treasures that can enhance my life gene level!"

He had already created the strongest secret technique for the Lord of the Universe. As long as he improved his supreme weapon and life gene level, and combined it with the peak supreme armor he had just acquired, he would also be considered to have entered the fourth-order Lord of the Universe level.

"No problem!" Lord Qing Sang quickly nodded in agreement.

……

Just as Lu Qingshan was leading the Lord of Qingsang and the Lord of Haoshan back to the Primordial Universe, the Ancestor of the Starry Sky Beasts had already led the Lord of Golden Horn and others back to the Holy Land of the Starry Sky Beast Alliance.

After casually dismissing the three, including the Golden Horned Lord, the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor quickly began to plot.

"The Lord of All Realms is already incredibly powerful!"

The Starry Sky Beast Ancestor couldn't help but secretly plan, "With my current strength, it's impossible for me to kill him alone and seize the ultimate treasure!"

"Besides, even if I led all the universe lords of the Starry Sky Beast lineage to attack him simultaneously, it would probably be very difficult to kill that Lord of Myriad Realms!"

"The best way to deal with the Lord of All Realms now is to cooperate with the strongest beings in other universes!"

"But if we cooperate with the strongest beings in other universes and obtain the ultimate treasure, how should we distribute it?"

For a moment, the progenitor of the starry sky beasts was in a dilemma.

It should be understood that for any of the strongest beings in the universe, the most powerful treasures are extremely precious and would be impossible to give away to others. Therefore, the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor had no idea who to invite to help him deal with Lu Qingshan.

"However, that secret technique..."

While the progenitor of the Starry Sky Beasts was troubled, he was also constantly recalling his previous battle with Lu Qingshan.

He wanted to find a flaw in Lu Qingshan's secret technique to see if there were any other opportunities.

But the more he recalled it, the more confused he became.

Because he suddenly realized that the secret technique Lu Qingshan had used was far more profound than he had imagined.

It should be noted that many supreme treasures have corresponding law runes, especially the most powerful treasures.

Under normal circumstances, after creating a powerful secret technique on one's own, if one has a suitable treasure, one can activate a higher level of law runes on the treasure.

Just like Luo Feng in the original work, after obtaining the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor, he was only able to activate the third layer of secret runes on the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor and unleash a powerful secret technique comparable to the strongest secret technique fused by the Lord of the Universe after creating a secret technique at the level of the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe!
Simply activating the secret runes is far, far simpler than creating a secret technique of the same level.

However, achieving this is extremely difficult, as it requires possessing a treasure inscribed with such precious runes.

Even so, there are still some subtle differences between the secret techniques used when activating the treasure's runes and those used when creating one's own secret techniques.

The ruler of the universe might not be able to perceive this difference, but the strongest being in the universe can perceive it if they observe carefully.

When fighting Lu Qingshan, the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor was filled with greed for the most powerful treasures and naturally had no time to think about these issues.

However, after calming down, he suddenly realized that the secret technique Lu Qingshan had used before was different from the secret technique he had used by activating the secret runes on the supreme treasure.

"The secret technique used by the Lord of All Realms is somewhat similar to the sixth-order secret techniques I created myself!" the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor couldn't help but think to himself.

After breaking through to become the strongest in the universe, the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor created a sixth-order secret technique, a top-tier sixth-order secret technique, and a seventh-order secret technique.

So now that he's thought about it carefully, he's starting to realize that the secret technique Lu Qingshan used before was somewhat special.

"only……"

Various thoughts flashed through the mind of the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor: "If the Lord of All Realms really created a sixth-order secret technique, he would probably have already broken through to the realm of the strongest being in the universe!"

"But when I fought him, I was clearly suppressed by the original will of the universe. He was obviously still at the level of the Lord of the Universe!"

"What exactly is going on?"

The progenitor of the starry behemoth pondered for a long time, but still could not arrive at a result that satisfied him.

In the end, he could only sigh to himself that the universe was indeed mysterious and unpredictable. Even as the strongest being in the universe, he would still encounter many things that were difficult to understand.

Actually, this isn't entirely the fault of the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor. It's just that there's absolutely no record of Lu Qingshan creating a sixth-order secret technique in the Cosmic Sea. So, he prefers to believe that Lu Qingshan obtained a rather special and powerful treasure.
