Clues

Zhang Junbao and his two companions left the Inheritance Space of the Star Tower.

" Junbao, Thunder God and I plan to train in the Star Tower here. What are your plans?" Hong asked.

After three thousand years of guidance from Puti, Hong's temperament became increasingly calm, and he became somewhat ethereal, so much so that one would completely ignore his presence if not careful.

Zhang Junbao knew that Hong had cultivated the Illusionary Realm Technique to an extremely high level. The Earth Lineage was created by the Sitting Mountain Guest in order to inherit the Star Tower. Puti's guidance of Hong and Thunder God's cultivation was also equivalent to guiding his own junior brother.

Both Hong and Thunder God's comprehension and temperament were very much to Puti's liking. Their unwavering will and humble attitude earned the great admiration of this senior disciple of the Sitting Mountain Guest.

During the three thousand years that Zhang Junbao was in seclusion, he provided meticulous guidance to the two of them, even more so than he had to the Giant Axe Founder and the Lord of Void Gold.

After all, Puti had been wholeheartedly guiding them for the past three thousand years, while the Giant Axe and the Lord of Void Gold had more matters concerning the Human Race and could not always provide guidance.

Not only Hong, but even Thunder God has changed a lot. Although Thunder God used to exude a violent aura, it was difficult for him to threaten a King Rank expert.

But now, just from the aura he exuded, Zhang Junbao knew that he already possessed strength no weaker than a typical Peak King.

" The Star Tower contains many Peak King and Peak King Rank experts, which is perfect for your training. I have other matters to attend to, so I will not remain here."

"Alright, this place isn't very valuable for your training, and besides, you still need to find the Beast God Crystallization, so there's really no need for you to stay here." Hong nodded. He knew that Zhang Junbao was stronger than them, so naturally he needed to seek other opportunities.

"Keep these two pieces of Bi Xue Jade safe, and find time to integrate them into your bodies."

" The Bi Xue Jade- a quest item from the Viska Star trial?"

"That's right, these two pieces of Bi Xue Jade are treasures born from the spinal cord of the Beast God. They can increase the speed of Law Comprehension by 10%, and are effective even for World Lord and Immortal God."

"It can actually increase the speed of Law Comprehension! Such a treasure is too precious. You need to comprehend more Law than we do, why don't you keep it for yourself?" Thunder God said in surprise.

Even with their current status, obtaining treasures that can enhance their speed of Law Comprehension would be extremely difficult. The original purpose of the Universe Level training missions was to reward human geniuses with opportunities.

As for who will discover the secret, that depends on their own understanding and opportunity.

"Hehe, I already have a better treasure. This Bi Xue Jade has little effect on me, but it is still effective for you."

After all, this can be considered a kind of Beast God Crystallization, but unfortunately, its level is too low to be used as a material for my Supreme Treasure component. However, it has a good effect on you.

I already gave Luo Feng one piece when we were on Earth; these two are for you.

"Haha, then we won't stand on ceremony. We knew you had a lot of treasures, but we never expected that just one of them would leave us speechless."

"Compared to you, Brother Hong and I are far less fortunate." Thunder God, like a miser, hurriedly snatched two pieces of Bi Xue Jade from Zhang Junbao's hand, gave one to Hong, and examined the other carefully.

They were all brothers, and Thunder God knew Zhang Junbao's temper very well, so he wouldn't be polite to him at all.

"The effects of this Bi Xue Jade are quite good, especially for you, Hong. The Bi Xue Jade was born from the Light Beast God, so the effects should be even better if you use it," Zhang Junbao said.

"I know this Bi Xue Jade, it's a quest item from Viska Star, but I never expected it to have such effects," Hong remarked.

"In fact, almost every training mission during the Universe Level era contains hidden treasures. Although these treasures are not very valuable for recycling within the Virtual Universe Company, they can still be quite effective even for powerful beings who King Rank."

Just like the Blood Luo Crystal that Luo Feng obtained in the Blood Luo Continent, it was formed from the blood of the fallen Gold Beast God.

"However, Blood Luo Crystal are very effective for those who cultivate the Law of Metal, but for you, the effect is probably only so-so, and may even cause chaos in the Power of Law within your bodies. You should not use them casually," Zhang Junbao reminded.

"We understand that. In fact, Master Giant Axe has also given us similar treasures before. Mine is the Law of Light, Thunder God's is the Law of Lightning."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Junbao couldn't help but sigh, as the only Universe Supreme Master and the Giant Axe Founder, he naturally spared no effort in training his disciples.

With his strength, finding a trace of the Beast God's blood would be incredibly easy. He could even exchange for it within the Virtual Universe Network. It's just that it would be quite valuable to Hong and his group, but for Giant Axe, it would be nothing more than a drop in the ocean.

" The Giant Axe Founder is humanity's only Universe Supreme Master, so his training will naturally be without issue. When you are training in the Star Tower, if you encounter any treasures that can elevate your Life Gene Level, be sure to seize them. This will greatly benefit your future growth."

"We understand." Hong and Thunder God nodded.

They both believed Zhang Junbao's words without a doubt. Although their current status was no lower than Zhang Junbao's, and perhaps even higher, they still habitually followed Zhang Junbao guidance.

"We'll say goodbye here. After three thousand years of seclusion, you should have a good talk with your family and teachers," Hong said.

"I understand. I will return when Luo Feng succeeds. Then he will be free from your protection," Zhang Junbao said, looking towards the Star Tower.

"Don't worry, leave it to us."

After saying goodbye, Zhang Junbao took out the Void Whale Spaceship and flew inside. Hong and Thunder God also entered the Star Tower again, beginning their own training journey.

" Feitian, have I obtained any important information during my seclusion?" Zhang Junbao asked from inside the spaceship.

"Master, you have 829 emails from your home and 3 emails from the Chaos City Lord."

"They must be worried about me, having not contacted them for three thousand years."

After entering the Virtual Universe Network and reuniting with his family to let them know he was safe, Zhang Junbao arrived at Thunder Island, where the Chaos City Lord resided.

In these three thousand years, there has been no case of a family being suppressed like Luo Feng's. After all, both Hong and Thunder God are conscious and able to contact their families, so naturally no one would doubt whether Zhang Junbao and Luo Feng have perished.

On Thunder Island, in the temple of the Chaos City Lord, Zhang Junbao met the Chaos City Lord.

"Senior brother!"

"In these three thousand years, you haven't replied to any messages. Have you encountered anything?" The rumbling voice of the Chaos City Lord echoed.

"Senior brother, I met our teacher three thousand years ago." Zhang Junbao had no intention of keeping this a secret from the Chaos City Lord.

"What? You saw the teacher? Three thousand years ago, when you were in seclusion, I sensed the teacher's aura, but it vanished in an instant, and by the time I arrived, he had already disappeared without a trace." The Chaos City Lord was greatly shocked. Zhang Junbao actually said that he had seen the Original Ancestor. This was the first time the Original Ancestor had truly appeared since he had been suppressed for countless eons.

What Zhang Junbao saw on Earth was merely a dreamlike phantom, not the true Original Ancestor.

"That's right. By a stroke of luck, in order to allow you to stop a powerful Alien Race being, the Universe Origin allowed you to release a trace of your aura."

"What kind of powerful Alien Race?"

The Chaos City Lord's tone was filled with doubt. What kind of powerful being could make the Universe Origin go so far as to allow the Original Ancestor to reveal his aura in order to stop his actions?

The Universe Origin paid a tremendous price to suppress the Original Ancestor. Unless something of great significance enough to shake the very foundation of the Universe Origin, the Original Ancestor would never have been allowed to reveal his aura.

Over the years, the Chaos City Lord has only been able to sense a faint trace of the Original Ancestor's aura. Only the existence of the Initial Universe can prove that the Original Ancestor is still alive and has not perished.

" The Sitting Mountain Guest!"

It was him!

"The four of you are Earth Lineage and have gone to the Star Tower for training, while you and Luo Feng have both entered seclusion. Even Hong and Thunder God are inside the Star Tower. If they hadn't sent a message to Giant Axe indicating that they were safe and sound, Giant Axe probably would have entered the Star Tower to investigate."

The four Earth Lineage are disciples of the Giant Axe Founder, the Lord of Void Gold, and the Chaos City Lord, all of whom are among the strongest forces in humankind.

If all four of them were to encounter an accident after arriving at the Star Tower, it would be a significant blow to humanity.

Fortunately, Hong and Thunder God had informed Giant Axe of the situation, preventing the human powerhouses from reaching the Star Tower.

"We never expected that the Star Tower would involve the Sitting Mountain Guest."

"You saw the teacher. Did the teacher give you any instructions?"

"My teacher and the Sitting Mountain Guest have reached an agreement that he will teach me the art of Treasure Refining. Before leaving, he also demonstrated to me the mysteries of the Universe Origin."

My three thousand years have been spent understanding my teacher's teachings.

"Good! This disciple thanks the master!" Upon hearing Zhang Junbao's words, the Chaos City Lord bowed down to the void with his massive body.

He naturally saw through the Original Ancestor's intention. The Sitting Mountain Guest was famous in the universe for refining treasures. Many Universe Master and even the Universe Supreme Master would seek the Sitting Mountain Guest if they wanted to refine Supreme Treasure.

Unfortunately, his whereabouts are unpredictable, and his demands are even more bizarre, making it difficult to get him to refine treasures.

Undoubtedly, the high quality of the treasures crafted by the Sitting Mountain Guest has earned the recognition of all the powerful beings in the entire universe.

Zhang Junbao possesses exceptional talent in crafting treasures. If he were to be guided in Treasure Refining by the Sitting Mountain Guest, then the Human Race might one day have a true treasure crafting master capable of crafting Peak Supreme Treasure, or even the Strongest Supreme Treasure Refining.

Asking others to Treasure Refining is never as reliable as refining them yourself.

Although the Chaos City Lord did not know how the Original Ancestor had done it, this move would undoubtedly greatly enhance the strength of the entire Human Race.

"Did the teacher ask you to become the disciple of the Sitting Mountain Guest?"

"No, it seems that my teacher and Senior Sitting Mountain Guest reached some kind of agreement at the time, so Senior Sitting Mountain Guest promised to assist my Human Race when necessary and to guide me in the art of crafting treasures," Zhang Junbao answered truthfully.

The Sitting Mountain Guest was willing to help humanity was a major secret concerning the future of the entire Human Race, and Zhang Junbao naturally had to inform the Chaos City Lord. As for how he and the Giant Axe Founder and other high-ranking human leaders would decide, that was not Zhang Junbao's concern.

"Your teacher must have his reasons for doing this. In that case, you only need to focus on your cultivation and learn the art of crafting treasures from the Sitting Mountain Guest."

For a powerful figure like the Sitting Mountain Guest, if Zhang Junbao were to casually show intimacy or goodwill towards the Human Race, it would easily provoke resentment.

But as long as Zhang Junbao masters the art of Treasure Refining, he need not fear that the Sitting Mountain Guest will not side with the Human Race.

"Does the teacher have any instructions regarding the development of the Human Race?" the Chaos City Lord asked with concern.

This was the first time he had truly received information from the Original Ancestor since the Original Ancestor was suppressed. Although he didn't understand why the Original Ancestor hadn't left him any information, it was clear that the Original Ancestor had been allowed to temporarily leak out his power by the Universe Origin for some special reason.

During this time, the Original Ancestor also did something that greatly benefited the entire Human Race: he won over the Sitting Mountain Guest.

The Human Race only has one strongest member, Giant Axe, and lacks even the Strongest Supreme Treasure and cannot stand alone. If a second strongest member were willing to help the Human Race, they would surely gain more resources in the universe.

"The teacher said you did very well, senior."

"Disciple thanks Master for your affirmation." The Chaos City Lord bowed in a certain direction in the void, his face filled with excitement.

Although the words came from Zhang Junbao's mouth, he could sense that they truly came from the Original Ancestor.

The Original Ancestor was suddenly suppressed, the Human Race declined, and humanity was on the verge of collapse. If it weren't for the desperate battle between the Giant Axe Founder and the Chaos City Lord, who carved out a place for Human Race to breathe, the Human Territory would have long been invaded and occupied by Alien Race.

Only the Chaos City Lord knew the hardships he had endured. He asked for nothing in return, only for a word of affirmation from his teacher.

Now, after countless eons, we have finally heard that "Well done!"

After a long while, the Chaos City Lord regained his composure, his eyes filled with affirmation and gratitude as he looked at Zhang Junbao.

The Original Ancestor chose to tell Zhang Junbao this information must be because it was related to him.

What kind of secret could possibly move the Universe Supreme Master, the Sitting Mountain Guest, and even cause the Universe Origin to release its Original Ancestor aura at any cost?

"I lost my composure. It's been so many years since we last met, and this is the first time I've heard from you, teacher. I'm quite excited."

"Thank you for your hard work, senior brother."

"It's alright. Did the teacher give any other instructions?"

"No, that's all. However, the Sitting Mountain Guest has set a test for me; I need to complete it before I can receive his guidance. I've come to ask my senior brother for help."

What kind of test?

"Find him."

"Find him? If he's unwilling to show himself, finding the Universe Supreme Master won't be so easy."

"Indeed, I have no clue, so I want to use the power of the tribe to find some clues."

"Under normal circumstances, Giant Axe might be able to contact him, but now, that would be difficult."

However, I do have an idea. You could go to Craftsman God Star to look for clues.

" Craftsman God Star?"

"That's right. The Master of Craftsman God and the Sitting Mountain Guest are both powerful beings in the universe capable of refining Peak Supreme Treasure. They have a special connection, which may provide you with some clues."

Zhang Junbao then remembered that Craftsman God Star was the place where Luo Feng later searched for the " Nine Tribulations Secret Manual."

The Master of Craftsman God is an old acquaintance of the Sitting Mountain Guest, so perhaps there really is a clue about him.

"I have some connection with the Master of Craftsman God. If he is unwilling to tell you the truth, you can reveal my name, which may be of some help to you."

This is, after all, a test for the Sitting Mountain Guest; it certainly won't be that simple.

"I understand, then I'll head to Craftsman God Star right now!"
