After conquering the Primal Heavenly Mountain, Lu Qingshan received news that a reward of 100 billion points had been deposited into his account!

The 100 billion points distributed by the Virtual Universe Company were not a big surprise for Lu Qingshan.

After all, he possesses two True Treasure, including the Banyan Wood Divine Blade, whose value is no less than that of True Treasure.

As for the Beast God Inheritance Token, which is as valuable as Supreme Treasure, if he were to make a move, it would probably be worth more than even the wealth of an ordinary Universe Venerable!

He didn't value these 100 billion points much, but for other powerful figures who had reached the King Rank, it was an astonishing fortune.

Many powerful masters King Rank have spent Endless years cultivating in Chaos City may not be able to accumulate such a vast fortune in their entire lives.

"Time to go to the Heavenly Bridge."

Having already conquered the Primal Heavenly Mountain, there's naturally no need to leave the 20th level, the Universe Heavenly Bridge, behind.

After making his decision, Lu Qingshan's figure disappeared from the summit of the Primal Heavenly Mountain and instantly appeared in the Tongtian Bridge Plane.

"Brother Qingshan! Long time no see!"

Upon seeing Lu Qingshan arrive at the Tongtian Bridge Plane, the Guardian Bafen, clad in a star-patterned robe, quickly rose to greet him.

Born as Intelligent Life, he is more able to endure loneliness than ordinary people, which is why he has been able to guard the Tongtian Bridge Plane for billions of years.

Bafen has a wide circle of friends, including many King Rank and even Universe Venerable. In recent years, he has become particularly close to Lu Qingshan.

"Brother Bafen, let's not catch up yet. We can talk more later."

Lu Qingshan tossed a bottle of Purple Fire Ape Wine to the ground.

"Brother Qingshan, didn't you come here specifically to see me?" Bafen took the bottle, looking surprised.

This Purple Fire Ape Wine is in a completely different league from the Thunder Rain Wine I had before. Could it be that there's some joyous occasion today?

"Brother Bafen, wait for me a moment, I'll go test my skills at the Heavenly Bridge first," Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

"A test? If I remember correctly, you already cleared the 19th floor last time..." A hint of shock flashed in Bafen's eyes.

After the 19th floor of the Heavenly Bridge, there's the 20th floor. Over the years, every time Lu Qingshan came to the Tongtian Bridge Plane, he was able to pass at least one level.

"Haha, Brother Bafen, you drink first, and then watch my performance."

Lu Qingshan laughed loudly, and with a flash, he entered the Universe Heavenly Bridge.

Bafen was stunned when he saw Lu Qingshan actually go to the Universe Heavenly Bridge.

How long has it been? Could it be that Brother Qingshan already possesses the strength to pass the 20th floor?

This is progressing way too fast!

Just then, an email arrived.

Bafen quickly opened the email and, after reading its contents, looked towards the direction of the Universe Heavenly Bridge with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Brother Qingshan, you actually made it through the Primal Heavenly Mountain!"

After confirming that Lu Qingshan had passed through the Primal Heavenly Mountain, Virtual Universe Company, as is its usual practice, sent a notification email to the company's senior management and World Lord Level geniuses.

As one of the King Rank Bafen naturally received the news as well, and at this moment he was overwhelmed with emotion and could hardly calm down!

He initially befriended Lu Qingshan because he saw his potential. Who knew that in just over ten thousand years, the other party would grow to a level that he could never reach.

"This is amazing... it's simply incredible!"

Bafen didn't know how to describe it. It wasn't that he lacked knowledge; on the contrary, his experience even surpassed that of many younger King Rank. But he had never met someone as exceptionally talented as Lu Qingshan before.

He suppressed the urge to send emails to those important figures on the list, slowly sat down, placed the Purple Fire Ape Wine aside without opening it, and focused intently on the Mingguang in front of him.

In the Virtual Universe, inside a huge manor on Thunder Mountain.

The Ganwu Country Lord is entertaining a special guest.

"Brother Ganwu, it's not that I'm being Iron Wall and insisting on repaying my debt. Back then, when you asked to borrow that set of True Treasure, I lent it to you without hesitation. But now... I heard you've purchased a large amount of resources from the Hongmeng Alliance. Why don't you repay my debt first?"

A Dragon-Man Race Venerable, clad in a black robe and with bronze skin, spoke with displeasure.

The Ganwu Country Lord poured him a full glass of fine wine and said with a smile, "Brother Iron Wall, don't you know my Ganwu? I'm not the kind of person who would default on a debt."

Those resources were urgently needed by Qing Dou Kou Venerable. The other party gave me a discount, allowing me to return them with ordinary resources. Besides, those things are far less valuable than your True Treasure.

Although Qing Dou Kou Venerable has a relationship with me, he is ultimately Alien Race, so I think I should settle his debts first.

As for the debts Iron Wall to you and the others, I will definitely repay them one by one in order.

" Ganwu, I also have my own difficulties... My good-for-nothing son perished in the Cosmic Secret Realm some time ago, and even the True Treasure I bestowed upon him was lost. He was carrying the True Treasure with him when he fell, and the price required for his resurrection is not small..." After hearing the explanation, the Iron Wall Venerable's expression softened slightly, but he was still dark-faced.

"I understand, Brother Iron Wall. Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to repay your True Treasure Points first."

Seeing that the other party's emotions had eased slightly, the Ganwu Country Lord quickly made a promise.

As they were talking, both of them received new emails at the same time.

As Universe Venerable, one can read the contents of emails with just a wisp of consciousness.

Upon reading the email, the Ganwu Country Lord's face lit up with joy. He downed the wine in his hand in one gulp and laughed heartily a few times.

The Iron Wall Venerable, standing to the side, also looked surprised, then smiled and said, "Brother Ganwu, congratulations! You've taken on a fine disciple."

" Qingshan is indeed a gifted child; he has never disappointed me." The Ganwu Country Lord could not hide his excitement.

"If I remember correctly, your disciple Lu Qingshan chose the Universe School, right?" Iron Wall Venerable asked.

The Ganwu Country Lord nodded. "Exactly."

"Incredible! Universe School, World Lord Level has already conquered the Primal Heavenly Mountain... It seems that it won't be long before Brother Ganwu has another powerful ally."

"Haha, just luck! It's all luck!"

"Ah, Brother Ganwu, I apologize for what I said earlier. Please don't take it to heart... As for those True Treasure Points, there's no need to rush. I'll find a way to raise the funds for my rebellious son's resurrection."

"Thanks for your understanding, Brother Iron Wall! Come on, let's drink..."

The Ganwu Country Lord knew the reason for the change in the other party's attitude.

His disciple, Lu Qingshan, had traversed the Primal Heavenly Mountain and belonged to the Universe School of cultivating both Time-Space. In the future, he would at least become a powerful Universe Venerable, and there was even a faint hope that he would become a pillar of Human Race...

Even the slightest possibility is enough to make the other Venerable reconsider their importance. As Lu Qingshan's only teacher, his status will naturally rise accordingly.

"However..." While entertaining the Iron Wall Venerable, the Ganwu Country Lord replied to the flood of congratulatory emails, thinking to himself, "The fact that I exchanged a large amount of resources from the Hongmeng Alliance must have been leaked by that Venerable Niuzhou. These resources are probably already being targeted by other creditors. It just so happens that Qingshan's passage through the Primal Heavenly Mountain helped relieve some of the pressure, so it's best to get rid of them as soon as possible."

In a square not far from the Ganwu Manor, several Universe Venerable were also conversing.

" Ganwu is truly lucky to have taken on such an outstanding disciple. I heard that Lu Qingshan was discovered by him and sent to the Virtual Universe Company."

"It seems like the Ganwu has had a stroke of good luck lately? He even acquired a batch of resources during his recent trip."

"Oh? It seems it won't be long before we see the Ganwu Country Lord again in the Cosmic Secret Realm."

"As is customary, the Primal Star should be opening soon, in about a dozen epochs... I wonder if the Ganwu Country Lord will venture there again this time?"

"Probably not! With a disciple like Lu Qingshan, why risk going to the Primal Star? They can explore some less dangerous Cosmic Secret Realm together and slowly pay off their debts."

"Yes... even if he wanted to go, I'm afraid no one would be willing to lend him their True Treasure this time..."

"I truly envy the Ganwu Country Lord. If only my disciple had half the talent of Lu Qingshan."

Venerable Xuesha listened to the conversation of the other Venerable.

I felt a sense of relief.

" Lu Qingshan's growth rate is too fast. Fortunately, I didn't let Luosha become his enemy back then, otherwise I would have gained another opponent for nothing."

The initial questioning of Lu Qingshan was merely out of indignation on behalf of his disciple.

Now it has been proven that Lu Qingshan and his disciples are not on the same level at all.

He was completely convinced of the Chaos City Lord's vision and decisions.

Lu Qingshan and the Ganwu Country Lord had no conflict with him, and since they belonged to the same camp as the Virtual Universe Company, there was naturally no need for him to offend them.

The news that Lu Qingshan had broken through the Primal Heavenly Mountain caused such a huge sensation.

There's no other reason than that the Primal Heavenly Mountain is incredibly valuable!

Passing through the Primal Heavenly Mountain signifies that Law Comprehension has surpassed the Peak King.

Once one breaks through the Immortal, one will at least reach the Pinnacle King Rank, and may even become Invincible King.

After all, such a genius couldn't possibly be without Universe Venerable as a teacher, nor could he lack True Treasure.

The World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain, serves as the highest standard for recognizing geniuses among Human Race. It represents not only Law Comprehension but also immense future potential.

Based on past experience, geniuses who manage to pass through the Primal Heavenly Mountain have a high chance of breaking through to the Universe Venerable in the future. Even if they unfortunately perish along the way, the Human Race Universe Master will resurrect them.

Human Race's accumulated power over countless years amounts to only a few thousand Venerable.

Its value is self-evident!

As for those geniuses at the World Lord Level...

They had long since become numb.

Ever since Grandmaster Qingshan started lecturing in Chaos City, he has left them far behind, and most of the geniuses have long since given up comparing themselves to Lu Qingshan.

Being born in the same era as such top geniuses is destined to be their tragedy.

Even the two top geniuses who had crossed the 18th level of the Heavenly Bridge in the Primal Secret Region paled in comparison to Lu Qingshan's brilliance.

In the City Lord's Mansion of the Initial Universe Chaos City.

Venerable Guiyi was not surprised that Lu Qingshan had passed through the Primal Heavenly Mountain. He knew that Lu Qingshan had the ability to pass through the Primal Heavenly Mountain when he maintained the trial illusion for Lu Qingshan.

He stepped into the Chaos Ruins.

"Teacher, Lu Qingshan has already passed through the World Lord Level Original Tongtian Mountain."

"I understand. Tell him to come to the City Lord's Mansion."

"Disciple understands."
