The Glory World of the Ancestral God Religion, open-air plaza.

Lu Yan'an, who had not been online in the Glory World for over a century since his Lu Yan'an, has now returned for the first time in a hundred years. After a century of Years, a lot of information naturally needs to be updated.

"Huan Shi!" Suddenly, a figure appeared beside Lu Yan'an, who was exchanging information with the King Tianxuan.

Lu Yan'an turned around and exclaimed in surprise, "Tianyu, what brings you here? I emailed you before, didn't you say you obtained a secret technique and were diligently practicing it?"

"Tianxuan, I have something to Huan Shi," King Tianyu said, winking at King Tianxuan beside him.

King Tianxuan, who was not overly curious, could only nod when he saw that King Tianyu had said so. He then said to Lu Yan'an, "Huan Shi, I will send you the information and location of the Mantu Divine General later!" Then, he obediently left.

Upon seeing King Tianxuan leave, King Tianyu immediately adjusted the parameters of the Glory World system to soundproof the surroundings, then stared at Lu Yan'an: "You're quite the center of attention, always so conspicuous wherever you go. I heard you built a private palace directly on the top floor of Thunder Island?"

"The news spread so fast? How long has it been since I broke through?" Lu Yan'an blinked and muttered to himself.

"This is considered slow. It seems the higher-ups are intentionally suppressing the spread of this news. You'll only have a hundred years to calm down!" King Tianyu shook his head. "Your move to the top of Thunder Island has clearly displeased many Universe Venerable. Many may be afraid of the City Lord's prestige and won't do anything to you, but nothing is absolute. You'd better prepare early. Otherwise, you'd better move down from the top! Losing some face is better than being ostracized by those guys."

"Since the City Lord has made such arrangements, he must have confidence in me! Don't worry, as long as things don't get to that critical point, I'll soon be able to prove myself." Lu Yan'an shook his head.

"Since you have your own considerations, I won't try to persuade you any further!" King Tianyu frowned. "However, you'd better be careful. Those Venerable possess eternal life, and their relatives have long since grown old and passed away. In their lives... they have only pursued the path of the strong, enduring countless Years arduous cultivation to achieve their current status! Therefore, they actually value status... these seemingly worthless honors very much. Your existence will definitely make them feel that their honor has been insulted!"

"Status, glory!" King Tianyu said softly, "I'm stuck in the endless Years Invincible King, forced to hide in various places to cultivate silently in order to break through. Only by breaking through to the ranks of the Universe Venerable... can one become a prominent figure again, and gain extremely high status and glory!"

"These positions and honors are earned through strength and contributions to the race," King Tianyu sighed. "If you have a backup plan, you should act quickly! Positions and honors are the only driving force behind those Venerable's obsession. They will never back down from those who tarnish their glory!"

Lu Yan'an remained silent for a moment, then nodded seriously to King Tianyu.

He was aware of these circumstances, but many things couldn't be resolved so easily. He knew that if kinship was lost, then the status and honor of one's clan and oneself would be what many powerful people would pursue.

They can die for their people!

They would die for glory!

The problem now is that Lu Yan'an is not some incompetent figure who got in through connections. After breaking through to the Venerable in one go, his regular combat strength is comparable to that of Universe Master! There is a serious information asymmetry between him and those Universe Venerable, which is the reason for this conflict. The only solution now is to achieve a victory that everyone can accept!

"I understand." Lu Yan'an grinned. "I will prove it with facts, and I will make those Universe Venerable understand my Lu Yan'an."

"It seems you were already prepared?" King Tianyu was surprised. He hadn't witnessed Lu Yan'an's breakthrough to immortality, so even though he trusted Lu Yan'an, he couldn't imagine just how strong a human Immortal God could be! After all, even the Zhu Chong Wang could only bully the most ordinary Universe Venerable, and could only barely contend with High Venerable.

It should be noted that the Zhu Chong Wang is Special Lifeform with Life Gene Level.

This shows that... the difference between an immortal and Universe Venerable is indeed enormous.

"You have to believe me!" Lu Yan'an laughed. "I'll have a battle to prove my strength later, just watch closely."

Meanwhile, in another part of the open-air plaza.

"Mantu Divine General, look, the King Huanshi is right there."

Mantu Divine General, sat among the many powerful Alien Races of the Northern Territory Alliance, watching Lu Yan'an, King Tianyu King Tianyu, and Lu Yan'an from afar... Of course, King Tianyu was merely there to make up the numbers; his gaze was fixed on Lu Yan'an, his eyes filled with a greedy, predatory glint. If one were to name the person he most wanted to kill within the Ancestral God Religion, Lu Yan'an would undoubtedly be at the top of the list, after all, he was a walking Supreme Treasure and incredibly weak. As for the Strongest World Tree? He certainly wanted to kill it too, but since he couldn't possibly defeat it, he didn't want to entertain such unrealistic thoughts.

"As expected, the pressure is stronger." Mantu Divine General sneered. "It seems that this King Huanshi has truly broken through to the Immortal realm. More than a hundred years have Years, and the sixth level of the Beast God Inheritance is indeed almost there! Back when I hunted him down, he barely managed to escape using the environment of the Nine Nether Sea. It seems I terrified him! Only now, after breaking through to the Immortal realm, does he dare to reappear. He's certainly cowardly."

Who is Mantu Divine General? He is a powerful being at the level of a Universe Overlord! To say that he would be far from being able to go head-to-head with the Universe Master, he is absolutely confident that he can deal with a newly broken through King Huanshi. He is absolutely certain that this time he will not be able to escape!

"Breaking through to Immortality is great! With increased strength, your courage will also grow! When I hunt you down then, it won't be considered bullying you, after all, you are a peerless genius of the universe." Mantu Divine General grinned, and the horizontal eye on his head quietly opened. Just then, of the two people in the distance, Lu Yan'an and King Tianyu immediately got up and disappeared into thin air, apparently logging off directly.

Upon seeing this, Mantu Divine General suddenly had a thought, realizing that his opportunity had arrived! He then got up and walked directly towards the inheritors of the Hong Alliance.

"The Mantu Divine General."

"The Mantu Divine General arrived."

All the thousands of inheritors of the Hong Alliance turned to look. Even Lu Yan'an was instantly excited when he discovered the arrival of Mantu Divine General. He thought to himself, "I've been searching high and low, but here he is, right under my nose!" Lu Yan'an had previously asked the King Tianxuan to keep an eye on the information and real-time location of Venerable Mantu, and now this target had suddenly appeared before his eyes.

At this scene, not only some inheritors of the Hong Alliance looked over, but also inheritors from the Northern Territory Alliance and other surrounding forces and groups. They were all wondering... what exactly did the Mantu Divine General want to do? After all, they had never heard of any connection between the Mantu Divine General and the human King Huanshi!

Mantu Divine General continued walking towards the Hong Alliance Group with a smile. Although he was watched by many inheritors, he still smiled and soon arrived at the Hong Alliance's territory.

"Mantu Divine General, what are you doing here!" A Universe Venerable from the Hong Alliance stood up.

"Don't be nervous!" the Mantu Divine General said with a smile. "I'm here to find him!" As it spoke, it extended one of its fingers and pointed to Lu Yan'an, who was also staring intently at it from the crowd.

"The King Huanshi?"

The inheritors who noticed the commotion in the open-air plaza were all taken aback, then began to whisper among themselves. They hadn't expected that the legendary Mantu Divine General, who had obtained a branch of the World Tree, had come to find the King Huanshi! This was quite a subtle situation. On one side was one of the few Candidate God General within the Northern Territory Alliance, possessing at least the strength of Universe Overlord; on the other side was a newly emerged genius immortal of the Human Race, whose strength alone was at least at the Venerable level! Logically speaking, their lives seemed to have never intersected, yet now they seemed to know each other...
