Within the Ancestral God Secret Region, Zijing Island was bustling with activity, as if celebrating the New Year. Hundreds of millions of inheritors from various races were still frantically discussing and speculating about the previous event of "the descent of the Light Beast God and the bestowal of a treasure upon the Venerable Huan Shi." Many inheritors were spreading rumors... what kind of treasure could possibly warrant the Lord Mengguang, one of the Eight Directions Beast Gods, deliberately concealing its appearance?

Inside Lu Yan'an's residence.

His physical body sat cross-legged on the pavilion, while his soul consciousness had already entered the World Ring to test the newly acquired treasures.

Above the sea of the mind in the Internal World, the flames solidified around the miniature palace faintly swirled with the flames of the soul. As soon as Lu Yan'an's Spiritual Force approached, he felt a burning sensation from his soul.

"Life Imprint, an imprint."

Suppressing the discomfort, Lu Yan'an stood before the miniature palace, pointed it out, and a wisp of divine power flew directly into it, merging into the miniature palace. The Life Imprint (Soul Seal) contained within the divine power was naturally imprinted on this treasure. Whoosh whoosh whoosh... The miniature palace arbitrarily increased and decreased in size according to Lu Yan'an's will, rapidly growing from the size of a palm into a colossal object with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers, and then slowly shrinking back to its miniature form. Finally, it was taken out from his Internal World and landed in Lu Yan'an's palm.

At the same time... like a flood bursting its banks, streams of information rapidly flooded into Lu Yan'an's memory, then stopped after a moment.

"So it's called the Tianji Palace." Lu Yan'an looked at the miniature palace with delight. "It's not just Ordinary Supreme Treasure; its quality has definitely reached the level of High-level Supreme Treasure. You must know, this is a flying Palace-type Supreme Treasure!"

"This is absolutely a treasure that could drive even the Universe Master mad."

Upon learning about this treasure, Lu Yan'an immediately understood... that the Ancestral God Religion's bestowal of this treasure upon him was definitely intended to give him one that was most suitable for him.

Treasure classification...

They can be categorized into offensive weapons, Spiritual Force weapons, defensive armor, escape items (such as cosmic light, combat boots, ribbons, etc.), sealing items, items for trapping humans, primal items, Flying Palace-type, soul items, and Domain Type...

Restoring Divine Body is Supreme Treasure of the primordial kind.

In terms of survival, Flying Palace-type and soul-type treasures are two extremely powerful types. One offers almost 100% resistance to physical attacks, and the other offers nearly 100% resistance to Soul Attack! Treasures like the "Sky Wolf Palace" of the Sky Wolf Master and this "Tianji Palace" are considered Supreme Treasure of the Flying Palace-type and have reached the level of High-level Supreme Treasure.

"A flying Palace-type Supreme Treasure that has reached the level of High-level Supreme Treasure." Lu Yan'an looked at the palm-sized miniature palace with great joy. "The Ancestral God Religion Sect's actions are truly extraordinary. With this, even if we can't defeat those high-level Universe Master, our lives will no longer be a problem. Even if we can't win, we can retreat calmly or wait for reinforcements on the spot."

"The Tianji Palace!"

Lu Yan'an laughed heartily, and saw the Tianji Palace rapidly shrink into a small golden dot, which he directly absorbed into his Internal World.

"Such a treasure exists."

"Even if I encounter an extremely powerful opponent, if I want to escape, who can stop me?"

"And I want to fight! I'll pilot this Tianji Palace close to the enemy, then have the World Tree Clone Differentiation and self-destruct. With the speed of this flying Palace-type Supreme Treasure, I'm afraid even they won't be able to escape." Lu Yan'an was overjoyed.

This Tianji Palace artifact is comparable in value to a typical Peak Supreme Treasure Weapon, and may even be more precious and rare.

And...

For a single powerful individual, the quantity of treasures is not important; what matters is their suitability! Clearly, this "Tianji Palace" can compensate for Lu Yan'an's weakness in his ability to escape, which makes Lu Yan'an appreciate the Ancestral God Religion's thoughtful consideration for him. It should be noted that, from the Ancestral God Religion's perspective, the only Supreme Treasure Lu Yan'an has revealed so far is lacking in the Palace-type Supreme Treasure. They never expected them to give it away so readily; it's utterly extravagant!

"Senior Brother Mengguang, I am a member of the Human Race, but I will remember your kindness in bestowing this treasure upon me. I will also avenge Teacher Yan Guang once I have grown stronger!" Lu Yan'an. He knew that even if the Ancestral God Religion was extremely generous, it would not simply give away a high-level flying Palace-type Supreme Treasure. Lord Mengguang must have played a significant role in it. Although he did not know the extent of that role, it did not diminish his gratitude.

That day, Lu Yan'an, who was engrossed in Creation Secret Technique, suddenly frowned.

"Hmm?" He silently opened his email in his Virtual Universe, and a mass email from the human race's official website caught his eye.

"Is this a notification to attend the Supreme Council?" Lu Yan'an suddenly remembered that when he broke through to the Venerable, the City Lord of Chaos had mentioned granting him the authority to attend the Supreme Council, although that authority seemed to be for High Venerable?

"Let's go then!"

He immediately connected his consciousness to the Virtual Universe.

"To Mount of Gods." Lu Yan'an stood in his palace atop Thunder Island and said softly. In the Virtual Universe, teleporting to a certain location only required the effort of a single sentence.

The Hall of Gods of the Mount of Gods is the site of the Supreme Council.

The Supreme Council will be held today, and Mount of Gods will automatically open when the Virtual Universe System sends out email notifications! It is normally closed.

Clouds and mist swirled, obscuring the mountain peaks.

One after another, powerful human figures appeared, and Lu Yan'an slowly emerged into the crowd. However, news of his situation had spread throughout the entire human race, so as soon as he teleported over, many familiar Universe Venerable came to greet him.

"Huan Shi"

"Lu Yan'an."

"Zhou Guang, Gan Wu." Lu Yan'an also greeted the various Universe Venerable. He had a good relationship with many of the Human Race's Universe Venerable. Among them, the two in front of him were the ones he interacted with the most when he was weak, so they were the closest among the Venerable.

"Lu Yan'an, your construction of the palace atop Thunder Island almost caused you considerable trouble," Venerable Zhouguang chuckled. "However, your battle with Mantu Divine General truly showcased the spirit of our human race! Afterwards, I doubt anyone would dare mention it in front of you. You truly deserve to be called the greatest genius of our Human Race throughout history! That temper is tough enough!"

Lu Yan'an walked over. "Those who have designs on me, or even harbor malicious intent to kill me, should consider whether they are strong enough! Right now, I'm actually worried about not having a worthy opponent."

"To remain so calm in the face of such peril, truly worthy of the Huan Shi '!" Venerable Ganwu, holding his wine cup. "But don't you seem to have some misunderstanding about the phrase 'a formidable opponent'? If killing a Universe Overlord- level powerhouse head-on doesn't qualify as a significant achievement, then what kind of opponent do you expect? Universe Master- level being?"

"If possible, I really hope a Universe Master will come." Lu Yan'an nodded and explained quite seriously.

Upon hearing this, Venerable Zhouguang and Venerable Ganwu exchanged glances before tacitly changing the subject. Both being High Venerable or even Overlord, they naturally understood the true strength of the Universe Master, and it was precisely because of this understanding that they were even more shocked by Lu Yan'an's current state.

But as shocking as it was, they couldn't say too much, lest it reach the ears of other powerful figures and cause unnecessary gossip. Of course, this worry was somewhat unnecessary, because every part of Mount of Gods had its own soundproofing, and their conversation would never be heard by others. The main reason for not continuing was that they couldn't handle what they were saying.

Please, it's not like anyone who breaks through to the level of Universe Venerable will suddenly possess the strength of Universe Overlord, okay? Besides, what this person is talking about seems as absurd as a dream to them; anyone would find it impossible to continue the conversation!

While Lu Yan'an had made many acquaintances with Universe Venerable, some were merely nodding acquaintances, and very few were truly compatible or like-minded from the start. Venerable Ganwu and Venerable Zhouguang were two of them! Both of them had crossed paths with Lu Yan'an when he was weak, and they had also provided him with intelligence and information in this Virtual Universe later on, so they had maintained contact with each other and had the best relationship.
