Lu Qingshan didn't have to wait long on the Ganwu Continent before the staff of the Universe Galaxy Bank came to collect the ' Black Jade Glazed Fruit '.
Lu Qingshan left the Ganwu Continent and returned to the Initial Universe with a consignment auction contract in hand.
Back in Chaos City, Lu Qingshan summarized his Law Comprehension.
Of the Ten Great Laws, he only lacks four Lower Law: water, wood, fire, and wind.
Although the Metal Law has not been officially recognized, both Bulu and Golden Sword, these two Second-Class Genius, possessed Metal element Lower Law. However, they are currently focusing all their attention on Higher Law.
Bulu was following Lu Qingshan's instructions to fully comprehend the Law of Space, while Golden Sword was focusing on analyzing the Law Essence space, so neither of them had the mind to pay attention to the Lower Law.
However, once they elevate their Lower Law, Lu Qingshan's Metal Law can easily gain Origin Law Recognition.
All he needed to consider were the elements he had just mentioned: water, wood, fire, and wind.
Ling Yu did learn about the Wind Origin Law during the Genius Battle, but she has probably abandoned it now, focusing her time on the Lightning and Time Origin Law.
"After recruiting four more disciples who focus on Lower Origin Law, it's time to consider what to do after leaving the Initial Universe."
Although Lu Qingshan viewed those Third-Class Genius World Lord like Jieming as merely tools, he didn't intend to recruit too many. Fulfilling his goals was enough.
Before reaching the Ten Great Laws of the Universe Master, focusing on Time-Space is sufficient; any other insights will not significantly enhance one's strength.
A banquet is being held in Jieming's small building.
This banquet was much larger than the one in Luo Na, with more than a hundred World Lord coming to offer their congratulations.
This is thanks to Jieming's ability to make friends over the years.
" Jieming, congratulations. I thought I would comprehend the laws before you, but you beat me to it."
Kelin picked up his glass of wine, took a swig, and while offering his congratulations, he felt somewhat depressed.
Before coming to the Initial Universe, his Law Comprehension was ahead of others. Unexpectedly, over the years, he was stuck in a state of extreme frustration, while others had already comprehended the laws and could become eternal beings at any time.
Luo is fine.
He admitted that Lopez was a genius.
Ke Jieming...
This kid is clearly not as good as me!
" Kelin, stop being jealous. There are still a thousand years left to explore the Initial Universe. With your abilities, you'll definitely be able to comprehend this final step."
Jieming laughed heartily and brought the topic to the forefront.
Kelin sighed. "If you had said this when we first arrived in Chaos City, I would have believed you, but now... I don't even have confidence in myself."
" Kelin, don't be discouraged, I believe in you!"
For this banquet, Jieming specially spent a lot of money to purchase a large quantity of fine wines in advance.
The group started drinking freely, and under the influence of the wine, they quickly became very talkative.
" Jieming, last time you invited Prince Lu Qingshan, why didn't you invite him this time?"
"A World Lord had a good relationship with Jieming asked."
Jieming let out a burp. " Yan Shan, do you think Prince Qingshan is as carefree as us? I already wasted his time once last time, how can I possibly invite him this time?"
"Indeed, although Prince Qingshan is kind and gentle, he cannot be bothered indefinitely."
"It's a pity I haven't fully grasped the laws all these years. Otherwise, after becoming Immortal God, I could join the Virtual Universe Company as a full member. I wish I could work under His Highness Qingshan in the future."
"Your Highness Qingshan is undoubtedly excellent at treating his subordinates. I don't need to work under Your Highness Qingshan; I'll just work under Luo."
"Luo is indeed amazing! I heard that after joining the Virtual Universe Company, he has easily passed through the thirteen levels of the Heavenly Bridge and gained the qualification to comprehend the Chaos Stele more than ten times. As his strength increases in the future, he will definitely be a powerful assistant to His Highness Qingshan."
Among the crowd, Luo, still dressed in a white robe, waved his hand and said, "I'm nothing special. Today is Jieming's big day, let's celebrate for him."
"Yes, yes, Jieming, let's have a drink."
" Jieming, the drinks you prepared today are pretty good, let's have a toast."
"You little rascal, you've surpassed me, you have to have a few drinks with me."
Jieming accepted all offers of wine, downing glass after glass until his face turned red and he became quite tipsy.
"Actually, well... I was able to break through this time thanks to Prince Qingshan."
"Originally, I was stuck in a bottleneck and couldn't make progress, so I thought of seeking refuge with Prince Qingshan. Who knew that Prince Qingshan happened to need some manpower, but he didn't need World Lord, he needed Immortal God... Prince Qingshan saw that I was quite clever, so he took me as his disciple and gave me a treasure that could accelerate my comprehension of the laws. That's how I broke through the bottleneck and comprehended the laws in one fell swoop."
"So that's how it is... No wonder you grasped the laws before me! It turns out you received help from Prince Qingshan."
"You're pretty tight-lipped, kid. If you hadn't drunk too much, you probably wouldn't have said a word."
"What kind of treasure did His Highness Qingshan bestow? Is it really that magical?"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately started gossiping.
Especially those who were initially somewhat unconvinced finally had a place to vent their frustrations. It turned out that it wasn't that they were inferior to Jieming, but rather that Jieming had a benefactor helping him.
"I asked many people before I learned that the thing is called Earth Origin Fruit, and it probably requires 500,000 Hunyuan Unit. Actually, I'm quite ashamed; with that many Chaos Yuan Hunyuan, I could have asked more than a dozen Immortal for help."
Upon hearing this number, everyone present gasped in shock.
500,000 Hunyuan.
Which of the many World Lord present didn't have one or two Immortal God in their family? Yet, most of their families' total assets didn't even amount to that number.
Many people have gone bankrupt and incurred a lot of debt in order to gather the more than 30,000 Hunyuan 'enlightenment slots'.
Jieming really hit the jackpot!
A treasure worth 500,000 Hunyuan Unit, given to Jieming... Many people felt it was a huge waste. With that much money to buy a spot for enlightenment, they could probably cultivate several Immortal God.
After learning why Jieming had comprehended the law, many of the people present were also intrigued.
His Highness Lu Qingshan needs manpower; if Jieming can do it, why can't they?
At the last banquet in Luo, someone asked for Lu Qingshan's email address, and many of the World Lord present knew it.
Some people, while drinking, had already started drafting their plans, wondering what vivid language they could use to impress Prince Lu Qingshan of the Primal Secret Region and gain the same treatment as Jieming.
Compared to comprehending the laws and breaking through to Immortal, what does becoming a disciple even matter? Although they are all at the World Lord Level, Prince Lu Qingshan's understanding of the laws is definitely a thousand times, ten thousand times greater than theirs.
Although Jieming had comprehended the laws, he had not yet condensed Immortal Divine Body. After a banquet, he fell into a deep sleep from drinking.
He did this on purpose; when acting, you have to make it look real.
Jieming felt no guilt; he genuinely cared for his friends! If they became disciples of Prince Qingshan, comprehending the laws would be a piece of cake, and even after breaking through to Immortal, they could still have a respectable job.
Lu Qingshan, who had just finished comprehending the Chaos Stele, was unaware of Jieming's actions.
After he left the city lord's mansion.
Nasus reminded him that he had received 108 emails in his inbox.
Lu Qingshan was somewhat surprised to receive so many emails in just a few days. He casually opened a few and saw that they were all from people wanting to become his apprentices or join his cause.
Without Lu Qingshan needing to think too much, he knew it must be related to Jieming.
Lu Qingshan ignored all the praise and admiration in the emails and, after filtering, kept only four people.
He had met all four of them at Luo's banquet last time. They were all qualified Third-Class Genius. They had the best relationship with Jieming, and after inquiring about them in detail, they seemed even more sincere.
That day, he had Jieming bring these people over.
These four World Lord.
They are respectively named Kelin and the Water Law, and are only one step away from fully comprehending the law.
Yan Shan, a genius who comprehended the Fire Law, previously had a higher Law Comprehension than Jieming.
Bu Kai, a genius of the Wind Law.
Mu Yu is a genius of the Wood Law, and the only female genius among them.
"Although I have accepted you as my disciples and will guide you to comprehend the laws and become Immortal, I am still only a World Lord. Are you really sure you want to become my disciples?"
Lu Qingshan sat in his chair and spoke calmly.
"Greetings, teacher."
Several people knelt down simultaneously and addressed the teacher as such.
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly, "Originally, after accepting Jieming, I only planned to take one or two more disciples as helpers. However, since you are all Jieming's good friends and sincere, I will give you this opportunity. There won't be another chance like this afterward."
As he spoke, Lu Qingshan raised his hand.
Before each person appeared a treasure comparable to the Earth Origin Fruit, which aided in comprehending the laws.
"This is a gift from your master to you. The instructions for using it are inside the box. Go back and carefully comprehend the laws. Only after you break through to the Immortal God will you be qualified to work by my side."
Thank you, teacher.
The group bowed again before accepting the gifts and leaving with Jieming.
After they left.
Lu Qingshan showed a hint of surprise.
"All the cashback is in Black Jade Glazed Fruit... Is this cheat code being lazy?"
