When Lu Qingshan arrived at the small building where Luo lived.

A dozen or so World Lord who came to comprehend the Initial Universe had been waiting outside for quite some time.

"Greetings, Your Highness Lu Qingshan."

The group of people quickly bowed.

Having been in Chaos City for so long, they certainly knew what the Primal Secret Realm Master represented.

If one could establish some connection with such a powerful figure, even after they break through to Immortal, they could still benefit immensely.

Among this group of people, two World Lord had not originally planned to attend the banquet but changed their minds at the last minute and came. At this moment, they were both extremely grateful.

"We're all at the World Lord Level, no need to be so polite, please come in."

Lu Qingshan smiled slightly and walked towards the gate first, followed by the others.

Luo tactfully gave up his seat of honor, and he and Jieming sat on either side of Lu Qingshan.

"Your Highness Lu Qingshan, I didn't expect you to attend my banquet."

Luo poured Lu Qingshan a glass of wine very warmly.

These drinks were the ones he had with him before coming to Chaos City. It wasn't that he couldn't buy supplies in Chaos City, but the prices were too high, making them not cost-effective at all.

"We came to the Initial Universe together, so we've met before. No need to be so polite, Luo. Congratulations on comprehending the Law of Light; you've now gained eternal life."

Lu Qingshan offered his congratulations, then took out a bottle of Locke Divine Water from his World Ring and said, "This is a bottle of Locke Divine Water. It's very effective for restoring the divine body of Immortal and can also cultivate plant life. I'll give it to you as a congratulatory gift."

Luo looked at the gift Lu Qingshan had taken out and was astonished. "Your Highness Lu Qingshan, this gift is far too precious. Please take it back. I am ashamed to accept it."

Lu Qingshan simply smiled faintly and did not retract his expression.

"Luo, please accept this gift from Prince Qingshan. It's very precious to us, but it's nothing to Prince Qingshan."

As he spoke, Jieming gave Luo a meaningful look.

That old Luo fellow, he's usually quite clever, why is he acting so foolish today? How could he possibly take back a gift that Prince Qingshan has already given him?

"Thank you, Your Highness Qingshan."

Luo then accepted the gift and thanked him again.

The other World Lord present were secretly amazed by this scene, as most of them had Immortal God in their families and were familiar with the magical treasure, Locke Divine Water.

That bottle was clearly a storage container; I wonder how much Locke Divine Water was inside.

However, it's possible to ask Jieming about this later, but no one dares to ask now.

"Luo, what are your plans after breaking through to the Immortal? Have you considered joining one of the five major powers and becoming a full member?"

Lu Qingshan took a sip of the fine wine and then asked.

"Luo, at the Domain Lord Level, once participated in the Giant Axe Life-and-Death Battle and earned the title of Domain Lord Giant Axe Warrior. Later, he joined the peripheral organization of the Giant Axe Arena. If he joins Five Giants, I wonder if it will have any impact. Is it mandatory to join the Giant Axe Arena, or can all forces join?"

Luo inquired out of curiosity.

" Outer Member are Outer Member, and formal members are formal members; there's no conflict... As long as your Initial Universe enlightenment slot wasn't granted by the Giant Axe Arena, and there's no special contract, you can join any of the five major forces freely without being affected."

Lu Qingshan spoke with a smile.

"No, that's not it. I haven't had any contact with the Giant Axe Arena for a long time. I just reserved a spot there." Luo shook his head. His qualification for enlightenment was a gift from that mysterious ascetic teacher, and it had nothing to do with the Giant Axe Arena.

"That's fine then. You can choose any of the Five Giants. If you want to join the Virtual Universe Company, I can recommend you. After the Initial Universe comprehension period ends, I should be able to arrange an easier job for you."

" Qingshan Highness, thank you so much."

Luo quickly expressed his gratitude.

He had originally planned to join one of the Five Giants, and was quite familiar with the Giant Axe Arena, but things were different with Lu Qingshan's recommendation from the Virtual Universe Company.

Leaving aside the prestige of being a master member of the Primordial Secret Realm, just one word from Lu Qingshan, a senior brother at the King level, could arrange an easy and well-paid job for him.

If you miss this opportunity, you may never have another chance in your life.

"Luo, let's raise a toast to His Highness Qingshan."

"Hehe, okay."

Lu Qingshan raised his glass and drank the wine in one gulp. Jieming, who was standing next to him, quickly refilled the glass that Lu Qingshan had put down.

" Qingshan Highness, Jieming also wishes to offer you a toast."

"Good."

Seeing that Lu Qingshan was so easy to talk to.

The others quickly followed suit, offering toasts as well.

" Kelin toasts Your Highness."

" Kong Yan offers a toast to Your Highness..."

Lu Qingshan had none of the airs of a Primordial Secret Realm Master; he would drink a toast with anyone who offered him one.

Several bolder World Lord even asked for Lu Qingshan's email address, which Lu Qingshan readily gave them.

After a few rounds of drinks, Lu Qingshan got up and left.

The others escorted him to the door before returning, and the atmosphere became even more lively after they came back. Some people were still a little reserved when Lu Qingshan was there.

" Jieming, you're amazing! You managed to get Prince Qingshan to drink with us. When we leave the Initial Universe, nobody will believe it."

Jieming waved his hand. "His Highness Qingshan came because of Luo's influence; I was just helping to send out an invitation."

"Yes, yes, it has to be Luo. At the World Lord Level, you have such a profound understanding of the Time Origin Law. Even Prince Qingshan values you highly."

"Luo, the Locke Divine Water that His Highness Qingshan gave you is a real treasure. My ancestor somehow managed to get some, and when I tried to get some for my Cloud-Touching Vine cultivation, he refused."

"How much of the Locke Divine Water did Prince Qingshan give you?"

"A considerable number."

Luo simply smiled and did not reveal the specific number.

"That's for sure. With Prince Qingshan involved, how could he possibly skimp on anything?"

"Luo, congratulations on becoming a formal member of the Virtual Universe Company. With His Highness Qingshan looking after you, your future is sure to be limitless."

"If I am fortunate enough to break through to Immortal, I will join the Virtual Universe Company in the future."

"Me too."

"There's still over a thousand years to go, let's all work together."

"Yes, yes, keep it up!"

A group of people were drinking and chatting, but Jemin, who was usually the most Jieming, was now silent, his face flushed... It was unclear whether he had drunk too much or for some other reason.

He kept glancing at the email in his virtual mailbox, as if afraid it would mysteriously disappear.

Chaos City, the small building where Lu Qingshan lives.

After returning from Luo, Lu Qingshan went to the cultivation chamber in the small building.

The gift I just gave to Luo will naturally come with a cashback.

[You gifted your disciple 100,000 cubic meters of Locke Divine Water, and received a thousandfold return; you have obtained the Spring of Life.]

Spring of Life?

It's yet another treasure that can't be found in the Virtual Universe.

In the Virtual Universe, there are many things called the Fountain of Spring of Life, but they all share the same name and are not the same as the cashback that Lu Qingshan received.

This is clearly a much better product than Locke Divine Water; how could it possibly compare to the cheap stuff he found?

Lu Qingshan instantly entered his Internal World.

The massive body of the Star-Eating Grass coiled around the mountain peaks. The Star-Eating Grass, which had followed him since the Planetary Level, now had thick vines and had evolved to 300 vines, having long since escaped its previous state of malnutrition.

A thousand years ago, Lu Qingshan exchanged nearly two million points for treasures for the Star-Eating Grass, and now the Star-Eating Grass has broken through to the World Lord Ninth Stage Peak.

Even an Immortal Army Lord would likely find it difficult to escape from the current Star-Eating Grass.

Inside his Internal World, Lu Qingshan took out the ' Spring of Life '.

This Spring of Life, falling to the ground, transformed into a small springhead only about one meter in diameter.

Within the spring, there is a pool of clear water, which looks no different from ordinary river water, yet it is brimming with a rich life force.

Lu Qingshan could feel the joy emanating from his body's cells as he touched a drop of water with his hand.

The life force of the spring water in this Spring of Life is a thousand times, ten thousand times stronger than that of the Locke Divine Water.

Lu Qingshan casually flicked his wrist, and the drop of the Spring of Life fell to the ground.

Suddenly, trees within a radius of hundreds of kilometers began to grow wildly. Near that drop of the Spring of Life, a small yellow flower that was originally only the size of a fingernail suddenly grew to a height of 100 meters, its blossoms Shrouding the Heavens and resembling a giant sunflower.

The enormous vines of the Star-Eating Grass stretched out and quickly occupied that area, its massive body covering it as if declaring it its territory.

" Star Eater! Is this spring water useful to you?"

Lu Qingshan communicated with the Star-Eating Grass using his consciousness.

"It's... useful... but not too much... just one drop is enough to make me full."
