Outside the passage to the Ganwu Mystic Region.
The passage slowly opened, Jimi looked at the group of students and said, "I've told you everything I needed to. Once you enter the Ganwu Mystic Region, you will live and cultivate on Wind Thunder Island. I hope that in the distant future, you will all survive and become strong."
"Thank you, sir."
All the students bowed in unison.
"Go in."
Jimi gave an order, and one by one, the trainees walked towards the passage.
After the last student entered, Jimi was about to close the passage when a voice rang in his ears.
" Jimi, wait a minute."
who!
Jimi was startled and turned around to see Lu Qingshan, dressed in a blue robe, standing right next to him.
"Greetings, Lord Qingshan."
Jimi took a deep breath and quickly bowed. He was shocked; he had no idea how the other person had appeared beside him.
" Jimi, no need for formalities between us. Were those kids the latest batch of winners?"
Lu Qingshan asked with a smile.
"Reporting to Lord Qingshan," Jimi said respectfully, "Those students are among the most talented in the last twenty years. They qualified to enter the Ganwu Mystic Region through the Secret Realm Qualification Battle. One of them, Master, has already cultivated nine Phantom Body using the ' Thunderlight Flash ' technique you created."
"Oh. Not bad, not bad..."
Lu Qingshan wasn't surprised. When he created this secret technique, he distributed it to all eligible students at the Ganwu Dojo and didn't prohibit them from spreading it.
As Lu Qingshan's status rose, the status of this secret technique naturally increased as well. Among the families with some power in the Ganwu Universe Country, this secret technique was included.
Some geniuses who meet the cultivation requirements of this secret technique are basically required by their families to cultivate it. The high quality of the secret technique itself is one aspect, but more importantly, they hope to gain the attention of the legendary figure Lu Qingshan by cultivating this secret technique.
After all, Lu Qingshan's first disciple at the Ganwu Dojo, the Blade Race's Parisi, was selected based on his progress in cultivating " Thunderlight Flash ".
The top families in the Ganwu Universe Country all harbored this unrealistic fantasy.
Therefore, what was once difficult— Three Phantom Bodies Four Phantom Body —is now commonplace.
However, the Nine Illusory Bodies is quite valuable. Being able to cultivate to the Nine Illusory Bodies means that one has basically entered the Lightning Origin Law, making them even more outstanding than Lei Ming and Parisi when they participated in the Genius Battle.
However, Lu Qingshan had no interest in this so-called genius and didn't even ask for his name.
In the Chaos City the Initial Universe, Second-Class Genius were commonplace. Lu Qingshan Lu Qingshan's vision had long since changed. He had no interest in a Third-Class Genius was likely only Third-Class Genius and so weak that he needed to be nurtured slowly.
" Jimi, I have some things to do in the secret realm first. We'll talk again later."
"Lord Qingshan, please."
"Um."
Lu Qingshan didn't say much, got up and walked into the passage.
With his current strength, he could enter the secret realm without being detected by Marquis Mingguang and the other two. After glancing in the direction of Wind Thunder Island, Lu Qingshan sensed the location of his teacher Ganwu Country Lord, and immediately accelerated to arrive outside the Ganwu Country Lord's palace.
The guardian Divine General standing outside the palace bowed respectfully upon seeing Lu Qingshan arrive.
Lu Qingshan simply nodded slightly and walked straight in.
Enter the main hall.
Lu Qingshan then saw the true form of the Ganwu Country Lord again.
What I saw on Thunder Mountain before was just the appearance of the Ganwu Country Lord in the Virtual Universe.
"I've met you, teacher."
Lu Qingshan bowed.
" Qingshan, no need for formalities!" The Ganwu Country Lord walked to Lu Qingshan's side, patted his shoulder, and led him to the dining table.
Then a maid brought out exquisite food.
" Qingshan, I've heard you enjoy fine wine. I happen to have a nice bottle here; let's try it together. As for everything else, we can talk about it while we eat."
The Ganwu Country Lord raised his hand and took out a bottle of bright red wine.
The bottle was like transparent crystal, and the liquid inside was as red as flames.
" Purple Fire Ape Wine?"
Lu Qingshan's eyes lit up.
Despite drinking this stuff like water in the Virtual Universe, he has never actually tasted real Purple Fire Ape Wine in reality.
This stuff is too precious and has too low a cost-performance ratio. It's not that Lu Qingshan can't afford it, but he feels it's too much of a waste.
After all, he simply enjoyed fine wine, not that he was addicted to it.
Of course, he would gladly accept the fine wine offered by the Ganwu Country Lord.
"I knew you'd like it. This Purple Fire Ape Wine is potent; even Invincible King would get drunk after a few cups. Take your time, I have something to tell you."
The Ganwu Country Lord reminded him, and then personally poured Lu Qingshan a cup of wine.
"Teacher, your disciple greets you first."
Lu Qingshan raised his wine glass and clinked it with the Ganwu Country Lord, taking a small sip.
The taste was still delicious, far superior to any other wine Lu Qingshan had ever tasted. More importantly, he could clearly feel the changes in the Purple Fire Ape Wine in reality.
After taking a sip, Lu Qingshan felt a little dizzy. Fortunately, his Gene Multiplier was high enough. If it were any other World Lord, that sip would probably have made him drunk for years.
Moreover, he clearly felt a change in his body's perception of the Fire Law. After drinking this wine, his body's affinity for the Fire Law increased slightly. If he drank more, the power of the Fire Law would be permanently enhanced.
This is the true value of Purple Fire Ape Wine.
Taste is merely a minor, secondary factor.
"Teacher, I'm really fortunate to have this wine; it's excellent... Teacher, you didn't call your disciple back just for drinking, did you?"
While he was still lucid, Lu Qingshan asked.
"I called you back because there's something important."
The Ganwu Country Lord picked up his wine cup and sipped it carefully for a while before continuing, "My teacher has had bad luck and a tragic fate these past few years. He has died three times and been resurrected by his clan three times. Not only has he lost all his treasures, but he has also incurred a huge debt... about four Supreme Treasure Point... Qingshan, you may not understand what Supreme Treasure Point is. To give you a comparison, the True Treasure Dark Moon Blade that I gave you is roughly equivalent to one True Treasure Points. One Supreme Treasure Point is roughly equivalent to 3,000 True Treasure Points. In other words, I owe about 12,000 such True Treasure as the Dark Moon Blade."
Seeing Lu Qingshan's surprised expression, the Ganwu Country Lord smiled self-deprecatingly.
"If all the debts were owed to the clan, it wouldn't be such a big deal. The clan's debts can be repaid slowly, at most just by sending emails to remind them. But among my debts, there are 1.8 Supreme Treasure Point owed to several Universe Venerable... They are not so easy to talk to. All these years, I have been in the Ganwu Universe Country, rarely going to Thunder Mountain or the Initial Universe, precisely because I am avoiding these creditors!"
"Teacher, this really sounds surprising."
Lu Qingshan's behavior was perfectly normal. He reached out and took out a treasure that looked like a Purple Bell, saying, "Teacher, this is a treasure that I recently obtained by chance on the Outer Domain Battlefield. I don't know its value. You can take it for now. If any Venerable presses too hard, just return this True Treasure to him."
The Ganwu Country Lord looked at the True Treasure Purple Bell that Lu Qingshan had taken out, and a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
It still has to be Qingshan.
They know how to care for their teachers.
Unlike that guy, Longjing, who, even knowing he's in such a terrible situation, still dreams of saving up for his funeral.
The Ganwu Country Lord shook his head and said, "This Purple Bell should be a valuable True Treasure, many times more precious than the Dark Moon Blade I bestowed upon you. Even so, it's just a drop in the ocean compared to my debts. Keep it... I'm not saying this to ask you to help me pay off my debts. You're too weak now. When you become Universe Venerable, or even surpass me, then if you want to help me, I won't refuse."
Over the years, overwhelmed by enormous debt, Ganwu no longer cared about saving face.
" Qingshan, your most important task right now is to comprehend the laws. Your cultivation speed is very fast, and I can wait. If you comprehend the Space-Time Law and become a great being of the Human Race, then my debts will be nothing at all, just a drop in the ocean for you. For now, you don't need to worry about me."
A hint of anticipation flashed in Ganwu's eyes.
The true value of his disciple is not merely to pay off debts. If Lu Qingshan becomes the Universe Master, then he, the Ganwu Country Lord, will have a solid backer among the Human Race.
This master-disciple relationship will still exist even if Lu Qingshan becomes the Universe Master!
"Teacher, why did you call me back this time?"
Seeing that the Ganwu Country Lord refused to accept it, Lu Qingshan put the Purple Bell away and then asked.
The Ganwu Country Lord took out a World Ring and placed it on the corner of the dining table, saying, "Over the years, although I haven't acquired True Treasure or Supreme Treasure, I have accumulated quite a few ordinary Hunyuan Unit thanks to the Ganwu Universe Country. A few days ago, I purchased a large amount of resources from the Hongmeng Alliance, worth approximately 300 True Treasure Points. I would like you to personally deliver these resources to an old friend of mine."
"Teacher, these supplies are so precious..."
Lu Qingshan glanced at the World Ring; it contained supplies worth 300 True Treasure Points! The Ganwu Country Lord was indeed a starved camel, yet still bigger than a horse.
Although it may be difficult to actually exchange these resources for True Treasure Points, it does not diminish the fact that they are a precious asset.
The Ganwu Country Lord slowly said, "Actually, I originally planned to send your second senior brother on this trip, but your strength is already Invincible King, and your talent is high enough, so it would be better for you to go..."
"Teacher, such a precious resource cannot be lost. Why don't you go there yourself?"
Lu Qingshan voiced his doubts.
"How foolish! If I go myself, I might just catch up with some old friends. But if you go, it'll be like a junior visiting an elder for the first time. Do you think my friend will let you come back empty-handed?"
The Ganwu Country Lord acted as if it were perfectly natural.
He recalled.
"Back when I was a wealthy master, the first time I met that old friend's disciple, I gifted him a priceless True Treasure..."
Hearing his teacher Ganwu Country Lord, say this, Lu Qingshan was speechless. His teacher had once been quite wealthy; who would have thought that he would need to be so frugal now?
Lu Qingshan put away the World Ring. The resources, worth three hundred True Treasure Points, were probably piled up like mountains within the World Ring.
"Teacher, three hundred True Treasure Points shouldn't have been a lot for you back then, so why did you only borrow this little?"
Since Ganwu had already spoken openly, Lu Qingshan naturally satisfied his curiosity.
Everyone says that the Ganwu are in debt, Ganwu are primarily in debt, but no one knows the details of the matter, and the Ganwu Country Lord himself needs to explain it.
"These three hundred True Treasure Points can't really be called a debt. Back on the Primal Star, the two of us encountered a True Treasure together. There was only one of those True Treasure, and my old friend gave it to me. I promised to give him half the value of the True Treasure in True Treasure Points in return."
The Ganwu Country Lord recalled that this was something from a very long time ago.
"And then what happened?"
"Later, I was killed by the aftermath of a battle between two Universe Master, and this True Treasure was lost."
Good heavens, the building project is abandoned, but the mortgage is still paid!
The key issue is that the Ganwu Country Lord still acknowledges this debt.
Lu Qingshan said admiringly, "Teacher, you are truly a person who keeps your promises."
