In the Initial Universe, within a vast manor.

The Ganwu Country Lord looked at his second disciple, who was crying and sniffling, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"Teacher, I misunderstood you. I thought you had completely abandoned me. I never expected... I never expected that you would secure such a precious opportunity for me."

" Longjing, you've got it wrong... Your ability to obtain the Beast God Inheritance Token has little to do with me."

After the Dragon Whale King Ganwu Country Lord finished their flattering and grateful words, they finally spoke.

"What? Teacher, you must be saying this on purpose, right?" The Dragon Whale King couldn't believe it. Who else but his teacher could secure such a valuable resource for him?

"You know my situation perfectly well. I'm drowning in debt myself. Where would I get the extra resources to exchange for this precious Beast God Inheritance Token for you? Even if I did, I wouldn't dare. If my creditors found out about this, they'd eat me alive!"

The Ganwu Country Lord chuckled.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Whale King...

Suddenly, it makes a lot of sense.

Something is definitely not right about this; the teacher simply doesn't have the resources or the ability to make that decision.

But if it wasn't the teacher who fought for it for him, then what was the reason?

Could it be that his clan saw his exceptional talent and believed he had a great chance to break through to the Universe Venerable realm, which is why they made an exception and gave him this opportunity?

Thinking about this...

Even the Dragon Whale King himself almost laughed.

Doesn't he realize his own talent?

Whether it's the True Yan King, the Heavenly Feather King, or even the younger generation like the Tong Nan King and the King Long Yu, their talents are far superior to his.

His current strength is entirely due to the long period of accumulation he has made.

Given his situation, his chances of obtaining the Beast God Inheritance Token are extremely slim. It should be noted that the last person among the Human Race to obtain the Beast God Inheritance Token was the Seven Sword King.

That guy's talent is something even I envy...

That's the template for top geniuses.

"Teacher... what... what exactly is going on? Teacher, you must know the reason, right?"

The Dragon Whale King asked with a hint of trepidation.

Suddenly struck by a windfall, the Dragon Whale King was overjoyed, but also a little apprehensive, because he knew there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

The Ganwu Country Lord nodded and said, "Don't worry, it's not that your clan betrayed you. You have this opportunity entirely because of your junior brother Lu Qingshan."

"Junior Brother Qingshan..." The Dragon Whale King was astonished. How did this have anything to do with his junior brother?

The Ganwu Country Lord continued, "Your junior brother killed a powerful Demon Race on his recent trip and obtained this Inheritance Token. He contributed it to the clan, exchanging only a small portion for resources, discarding the majority. However, he had only one condition: that you could use this Inheritance Token. The clan agreed to this request!"

"This... this..." The Dragon Whale King hadn't expected the truth to be like this. He said anxiously, "Doesn't Junior Brother Qingshan know the importance of this Inheritance Token?"

"He knows, how could I not tell him these things?" The Ganwu Country Lord glanced at him and said, " Qingshan said that since you cultivate across Time-Space, you don't need the Inheritance Token. Moreover, seeing that you haven't made any progress over the years, and have even lost True Treasure and incurred huge debts, he felt that you had suffered too much, so he gave you this opportunity."

"No matter how unfortunate my life is, I can't take my junior brother's resources. How old is he?" The Dragon Whale King felt that this Inheritance Token was too heavy.

"It's good that you know... Your junior brother spent about two thousand True Treasure Points on this Inheritance Token... If you haven't broken through to the Universe Venerable, then forget about it. But if you have, remember to return it to your junior brother. He didn't have it easy either."

The Ganwu gave instructions.

"Master, I understand. I will go and thank my junior brother right away."

The news that the Dragon Whale King had obtained the Beast God Inheritance Token quickly spread throughout the Initial Universe.

After all, the purple-clad guards from the city lord's mansion came to the door in person.

Many people witnessed this scene.

This made even the grandmasters who were cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City and Path of the Beast God extremely envious.

Many people sent congratulatory emails.

Even the Ganwu Country Lord had to send emails to each of his creditors to explain the situation.

Explain the reason for the matter...

Those creditors are all Universe Venerable; they can easily find out the inside story by asking around, lest they think that he, Ganwu, has money but refuses to pay.

In the Initial Universe, in a huge courtyard.

A group of True Yan King's disciples were talking.

Suddenly, a giant of the Ape-man Race sitting at the head of the table showed a shocked expression.

How is that possible?

" The Dragon Whale King has obtained the Beast God Inheritance Token and is about to head to the Ancestral God Religion? Impossible, absolutely impossible..."

The Ape-man Race looked at the email in disbelief and quickly verified it with others, soon confirming the news.

"Why is this happening? In terms of background, I'm no worse than the Dragon Whale King. In terms of strength, I was already a step ahead of him before, and now it goes without saying. Why is it that he's the one who obtained the Inheritance Token and not me?"

True Yan King rose, his heart, which had been calmed by years of seclusion in Chaos City, was stirred once more.

Because he knew how important this opportunity was; for him, it was a chance to rise to the top in one step!

"Let's forget about the previous Seven Sword King. They were top geniuses of the Human Race, disciples of the great Universe Master, and had the hope of breaking through to the Universe Venerable. I've been cultivating for too long and can't compare... But Dragon Whale King, I refuse to accept this."

"Teacher!"

The disciples stopped their discussion when they saw that the True Yan King was somewhat agitated.

"You may all leave."

True Yan King looked at this group of disciples.

"It's a teacher."

After everyone left, the True Yan King entered the Virtual Universe and arrived at a special plane.

Outside a grand hall, True Yan King pushed open the door and walked straight in.

Inside the main hall, an Ape-man Race with black hair all over his body smiled as he watched the arrival of True Yan King.

"Getting anxious?"

His voice carried a hint of mockery.

"Teacher, I want to ask you, did the Dragon Whale King really obtain the Beast God Inheritance Token?"

"I ask the True Yan King asked.

His teacher was a great leader of the Ape-man Race, an extremely powerful being even among the Universe Venerable.

"You already have the answer in your heart, why ask me again?" The black ape-man chuckled.

"Teacher, why? I am clearly more suitable than the Dragon Whale King. I am only one step away from the Path of the Beast God, while the Dragon Whale King has not yet perfected the Third Layer the ' Myriad Manifestations of the Marsh.' Moreover, my potential should be greater than his, after all, the Dragon Whale King is a powerful figure from the same era as you, Teacher."

"See, they're in such a hurry again..." The old man slowly stood up and said, "I know about this. You really can't blame the clan for being biased. The Dragon Whale King got this opportunity entirely because of his junior brother, Lu Qingshan."

" Grandmaster Qingshan?"

The True Yan King clearly knew Lu Qingshan, having previously witnessed Lu Qingshan's breakthrough at the Heavenly Bridge. In his mind, Lu Qingshan was an even more talented individual than the Seven Sword King.

"Hmm." The black-haired ape-man explained the reason... and continued, "The Dragon Whale King himself is also Invincible King, so he has some chance. In addition, the clan only needs to pay half of the Beast God Inheritance Token to send him into the Ancestral God Religion to receive the inheritance. The Chaos City Lord will definitely agree."

"You have higher talent, so you don't need to pay the majority of the price yourself. You only need to pay half the price, and the clan should prepare a Inheritance Token for you. At that time, even if the clan disagrees, your teacher can make the decision for you."

Upon hearing this, True Yan King felt a chill run down his spine.

Half- Beast God Inheritance Token?

Even if you sold all the True Treasure he had, plus his own resources, you still wouldn't have enough True Treasure Points.

True Yan King clearly understood the value of this Inheritance Token.

"That Lu Qingshan is really lucky..." True Yan King said bitterly. He had nothing to say at the moment and could only look at his teacher.

"Don't look at me. Besides these few treasures I have, I have nothing else. The entire Ape-man Race tribe relies on me to survive... I'm lucky if I can hold on, I have no resources to help you."

The black-haired ape-man shook his head.

"Teacher, do you say that if I cannot pay half the value of the Inheritance Token Inheritance Token, will I still have a chance to receive it?"

True Yan King asked somewhat nervously.

"Yes... but the hope is extremely slim. Perhaps we will have a chance only after Endless years, when the clan's Inheritance Token accumulated more."

Upon hearing this, a look of dejection appeared on True Yan King's face.

The previous dissatisfaction with the Dragon Whale King vanished after learning the whole story.

After all, he had more favorable terms, but he just couldn't meet the requirements.

Is it possible that True Yan King is destined to never have the chance to become Universe Venerable in this lifetime?

"Teacher, this disciple takes his leave."

"Sigh, go ahead!"

Compared to the True Yan King's dejection, the Dragon Whale King is now in high spirits, his round face beaming with a smile no matter who he meets.

He arrived at Qingshan Residence and met his junior brother Lu Qingshan.

" Qingshan, I don't know what to say, thank you so much this time."

Lu Qingshan smiled and said, "Second Senior Brother, no need to be so polite. You've been a great help to Qingshan before. Those Blood Luo Crystal of yours will be very useful to me."

That's absolutely true.

If it weren't for the Blood Luo Crystal given to him by the Dragon Whale King, his Gene Multiplier would never have had the chance to reach the hundredfold Gene Level it is today.

However, in the Dragon Whale King's view, his junior brother was just being polite. After all, he knew the value of the Blood Luo Crystal, which was nothing compared to the Beast God Inheritance Token.

The Dragon Whale King raised his hand.

He took out a World Ring and said, "Junior brother, there are ten thousand Blood Luo Crystal in here. Keep them... Even if you don't need them yourself, you can give them to your disciples when you take them in the future. With your status, it'll be fine if you just give the company a heads-up."

"Second Senior Brother, there's no need for that," Lu Qingshan said, waving his hand as he looked at the World Ring.

" Qingshan... don't worry, these Blood Luo Crystal are nothing to me. I gained a lot on the Blood Luo Continent, but these things are too difficult to convert into cash unless you reach the Venerable. That's why I'm in such a predicament. The value of these Blood Luo Crystal is far less than that of the Inheritance Token. You can rest assured if you accept them."

"In that case, junior brother, you shall accept it."

Lu Qingshan did not continue to refuse and accepted the Blood Luo Crystal.

Ten thousand Blood Luo Crystal...

That's a considerable sum!

If Second Senior Brother can take it out so casually, did he loot the temple when he swept through the Blood Luo Continent?

After handing the Blood Luo Crystal to Lu Qingshan, the Dragon Whale King left.

Not long after, Lu Qingshan received news that he had gone to the Ancestral God Religion.

Thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

This day.

Lu Lingxiao arrived at Qingshan Residence.

"Father, your son has completely mastered the secret technique of Thousand Threads Soul Seizure!"
