Just as Lu Qingshan emerged from comprehending the Universe Chaos Stele.

Inside a magnificent golden hall halfway up Thunder Mountain, the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters.

This is the secret treasure trove of the Virtual Universe Company.

The slightly plump old man in the golden robe, who had briefly met Lu Qingshan before, looked at a secret manual with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

How is that possible?

The elderly man wondered if there was something wrong with his eyesight.

"Wasn't Lu Qingshan primarily focused on comprehending the Time Origin Law? So, this manual...?"

When he signed the contract with Lu Qingshan last time, he greatly admired Lu Qingshan's book on analyzing the Time Origin Law, and was even more moved by Lu Qingshan's willingness to reduce his own income in order to cultivate geniuses for the Human Race.

But how much time has passed?

It's been about a thousand years!

This Prince Lu Qingshan has actually uploaded another secret technique analyzing the Space Origin Law. Moreover, judging from the title of the technique, it is clearly a sister book to the previous one.

Qingshan--Law of Space Fundamentals

The old man's lips twitched as he looked at the name. This name clearly laid the foundation for a series; there was definitely more to come. This Prince of the Primal Secret Region Realm seemed to have the ambition to become a King Rank.

" Adam!"

He summoned one of his men.

" King Zhiyuan, what are your orders?"

This man named Adam was also a powerful Immortal God, possessing the strength of Peak Marquis, but he was no match for the old man.

"Take a look at this secret technique; I am not proficient in the Space Origin Law."

Adam picked up the secret manual and examined it closely.

He had long since gained the Origin Law Recognition of space, and with his discerning eye, he could naturally discern the quality of this secret technique.

He studied the manual carefully for a long time, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

" King Zhiyuan, this secret technique is quite good. It's arguably the highest quality Law of Space analysis secret technique that the company has recently acquired. Compared to this, even the company's previous best-selling technique, ' Drifting Blood,' is far inferior. The creator of this secret technique is probably a grandmaster who is extremely proficient in the Space Origin Law."

"Hmm?" King Zhiyuan nodded; his subordinates' assessment was roughly the same as his guess.

Since they are sister films, the quality shouldn't be too different.

" Adam, pretend you know nothing about this secret technique, and don't let anyone know it."

King Zhiyuan spoke cautiously.

"Yes, I understand."

Adam felt a chill run down his spine and quickly agreed, realizing he had probably inadvertently stumbled upon some secret.

The jobs at the Secret Treasure Pavilion of the Virtual Universe Company are highly sought after, and he didn't want to lose such a valuable job because of a single careless remark.

After Adam left, King Zhiyuan, carrying the secret method, arrived at the innermost secret chamber of the Secret Treasure Pavilion.

"That's how it is, Venerable Youyue. What do you think should be done about this?"

Venerable Youyue is the true person in charge of the Secret Treasure Pavilion, but he doesn't usually get involved. All the work is handled by King Zhiyuan, and he only appears when major events occur.

Now, in King Zhiyuan's eyes, this matter has become a major event.

"I will report this matter to my superiors."

After King Zhiyuan explained the matter, a wisp of Venerable Youyue's consciousness had already gone to the City Lord's Mansion in the Virtual Universe.

The Chaos City Lord glanced at the secret technique briefly before revealing a smile and saying, " Youyue, now you know why I let this Lu Qingshan join the Primal Secret Region, right?"

" Youyue understands. This Lu Qingshan is simply a top-tier genius, one in billions of years. He can actually cultivate across Time-Space simultaneously. This is truly..."

The Venerable Youyue didn't say what came next, but if Lu Qingshan really reached that level, even he would have to bow respectfully to the other party.

Those are the greatest beings in human history; there have only been a dozen or so since the human race began to reproduce.

"City Lord, Lu Qingshan must be protected. If the Alien Race find out, they will likely stop at nothing to assassinate him."

Venerable Youyue, being one of the high-ranking Human Race, naturally understood what Lu Qingshan's potential represented.

Even the slightest hope is more important than those Venerable!

"Should we release this manual? Or discuss it with Lu Qingshan and buy it outright, or perhaps change the name of the technique?"

Venerable Youyue offered his suggestion.

As a member of the human elite, he did not want Lu Qingshan to be coveted by Alien Race.

"There's no need for that."

The Chaos City Lord shook his head.

"Since Lu Qingshan chose the Universe Heavenly Bridge, it means his talent cannot be hidden. In that case, let those Venerable who were discussing it before see for themselves. They previously thought Lu Qingshan entered the Primal Secret Region through willpower, but they didn't know what Lu Qingshan's potential represented."

"Yes!"

Venerable Youyue nodded, not daring to question it.

Soon, another new secret technique appeared in the secret technique vault within the Virtual Universe Company.

This time, King Zhiyuan personally signed a contract with Lu Qingshan again, not only setting the price at 800 points as Lu Qingshan requested, but also applying for a special points reward! Something called the Best Contribution Award.

Lu Qingshan had Nasus search, but they found no one else who had received this reward.

And so, Lu Qingshan's two secret techniques were put on sale in the company's treasury, and at a very low price, so that basically every genius searching for similar secret techniques could find them.

Geniuses who take the path of analyzing the essence of the Higher Origin Law are basically at least second-class. Lu Qingshan is like a fisherman who has cast his bait and just needs to wait quietly for the harvest!

In the Initial Universe, in the Chaos City, there was a small building located beside a street.

Golden Sword awoke from his cultivation, his furrowed brows revealing his displeasure.

"This 97th Space Essence is incredibly difficult to understand. Where should I even begin? I've tried the methods described in ' Drifting Blood ' hundreds of times, but why can't I solve it?"

"If this pace continues, I won't be able to cross the 11th level of the Heavenly Bridge before the next Qualification Battle. Even making it into the top three of the Primordial Secret Realm will be difficult, let alone entering the Primal Secret Region. I'm not reconciled! I, Golden Sword, am a genius envied by the heavens; how can I be blocked by these 108 Space Essence? I'm not reconciled! But this is just too difficult!!"

Golden Sword muttered to himself in a low voice, his words somewhat incoherent.

A pang of regret flashed through his mind. If he hadn't taken the path of analyzing the Space Origin Law, his progress wouldn't have been so slow. He would have already entered the Primal Secret Region long ago, instead of worrying about the spot to fight against the Primal Secret Region Realm now.

"No! I made the right choice. I, Golden Sword, am destined to become a strongman. I must lay a solid foundation. There must be a way, there must be a way to solve this problem."

Just then...

He found an email in his inbox from his teacher, King Anju.

" Golden Sword Boy, take a look at this manual. Many grandmasters speak highly of it. I've already bought it for you. Give it a try and see if you find anything useful."

The teacher's voice seemed to echo in his ears.

Golden Sword didn't resent his teacher, a master who had comprehended the Time Law, for taking him, a disciple who had comprehended the Law of Space, as his own. Over the years, his teacher's tolerance towards him was something no one else could provide. Although his teacher couldn't personally teach him, he recommended many mentors for him, many of whom were obtained through personal connections.

Moreover, his teacher only took him on as a disciple when no one else had shown interest in him, so he had no other choice.

"My teacher, a master of time manipulation, actually recommended Space Secret Technique to me, telling me to take a look first."

The Golden Sword unlocks the secret technique.

" Qingshan--Space Fundamentals "?

What a pretentious name this secret technique has!

Why give it such a name? Are they planning to make advanced and ultimate versions?

Golden Sword snorted and examined the contents of the secret technique.

Once you start watching, you can't stop.

He had already mastered the first ninety-odd essential aspects of the Space Origin Law, so the content preceding the secret technique posed no barrier to his understanding.

However, he still received some pleasant surprises.

"I never imagined it could be analyzed this way. This idea is brilliant. If we had gone this way from the beginning, we could have saved at least five years in solving this fundamental problem."

"Hmm, these 72 and 73 essences can be solved together like this. How come I didn't think of that? It's a truly ingenious design."

I don't know how much time has passed.

As Golden Sword observed and evaluated the secret techniques, he quickly reached the 97th technique that had stumped him.

Golden Sword was stunned after just one glance at the contents of the secret technique. Then, a look of wild joy appeared on his face.

"Yes, yes, that's it, that's it!!"

He wasted no more time and immediately began to study the contents of the secret method.

Less than three days had passed.

Golden Sword opened his eyes again.

"Success!"

A strong sense of confidence flashed in his eyes; once he got past this hurdle, the rest would be nothing to him.

"This secret technique is indeed somewhat useful."

He then continued to comprehend the Space Essence. He thought he had broken through the bottleneck and could understand two or three more in one go, but he was stuck on the next one.

"The secret technique, take another look at that secret technique book."

Golden Sword hurriedly entered the Virtual Universe again to examine the secret technique. However, since he had been following the Drifting Blood route, the laws in this book were already quite profound. After studying it for a long time, Golden Sword did not gain the same insights as before.

"How so!"

His face was dejected, and then he got up and went to his teacher's small building in Chaos City.

"Teacher, I'd like you to help me find another mentor."
