Listen to what the Ganwu Country Lord said.
The Dragon Whale King, who had been so smug, suddenly deflated and said in surprise, "So fast? Junior Brother has only been cultivating in the Initial Universe for a little over two epochs, right?"
"Yes, it is indeed more than two epochs..." The Ganwu Country Lord nodded. "I spoke with him personally a few days ago. Now, your junior brother has mastered two of the three branches of the Time Law, and he has also made great strides in the last one, Time Deceleration... Although for others, this last point will take a long time to comprehend, and they may even be stuck here forever, don't forget your junior brother's cultivation speed... At his cultivation speed, he will probably become Universe Venerable in no time!"
There were still things the Ganwu Country Lord hadn't said.
He was afraid of hurting his second apprentice too much.
That's Lu Qingshan's strength; he's now comparable to Universe Venerable!
He was the most powerful of his many disciples.
"That's outrageous!" The Dragon Whale King's smugness completely vanished. He felt quite unlucky, encountering geniuses everywhere he went. In the Initial Universe, it was his junior brother Lu Qingshan, and in the Ancestral God Religion, there was King Xue You. They were all too disheartening.
"If Junior Brother can maintain his current cultivation speed, he might be able to break the record set by Shi Huo Venerable and become Universe Venerable within thirty epochs..."
The Dragon Whale King sighed.
"Your junior brother's talent is already far superior to Shi Huo's. Breaking his record is nothing. Don't forget, your junior brother cultivates both Time-Space. He has already comprehended the Law of Space Teleportation has some understanding of Space Lockdown and Space Strangulation... Moreover, your junior brother also studies the Path of the Beast God in his spare time. You two could exchange ideas..."
"This..." The Dragon Whale King didn't know what to say. Geniuses were indeed beyond his imagination. For an ordinary genius like him, choosing one path between time and space was already extremely difficult. He never expected that his junior brother, Lu Qingshan, would not only cultivate both Time-Space, but also be distracted by researching the Path of the Beast God... How could one person have so much energy!
However, when it comes to the Path of the Beast God, the Dragon Whale King does have something to say.
"Junior Brother Qingshan's talent is too exaggerated; I can't compare to him at all. However, among all the people I know, there is one who can rival him."
"Who?" the Ganwu Country Lord asked curiously.
Aside from the pillars of the Human Race, even Lu Qingshan's talent was unmatched; he had never seen anyone else who could rival it. He never expected his disciple, the Dragon Whale King, to say that anyone could compare to Lu Qingshan's talent.
The Dragon Whale King said, "I met a friend in the Ancestral God Religion named King Xue You... He's a Special Lifeform with incredibly extraordinary talent. Even Jiu Feng Venerable personally instructed me to befriend him... I'll send his information to you, teacher, for your consideration."
The Ganwu Country Lord quickly reviewed the message.
I couldn't help but marvel.
"Although I don't Path of the Beast God, I know that the Path of the Beast God is extremely difficult... Ling Yu, the personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord, was already among the top in cultivation speed among our Human Race after 20,000 years of entering the Second Layer. This King Xue You, in just a hundred years, went from the Second Layer to the Third Layer of perfection?"
"It's absolutely true. My friend, the King Xue You, is probably already famous throughout the universe. Teacher definitely didn't chat with the Hongmeng Alliance friends, otherwise he would have known long ago."
"Impressive. Geniuses are as numerous as fish in a river, but only your junior brother Lu Qingshan and this King Xue You are the most outstanding beings of this era. It's a pity that the King Xue You isn't from our Hongmeng Alliance, otherwise our Human Race might have risen to prominence."
"Teacher, you're too greedy. Aren't you satisfied with just one junior brother?" the Dragon Whale King said with a smile.
"Hehe..." The Ganwu Country Lord shook his head. "Alright, you've shown off enough to your master. Your junior brother's manor is at the foot of the mountain. You can go visit him if you have time."
"Teacher... let's forget it. I still owe a debt. I'll go see my junior brother after I break through to the Universe Venerable."
"Whatever."
The Ganwu Country Lord did not care.
"Teacher, I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, the Dragon Whale King's body disappeared from the Ganwu Country Lord's manor, clearly having left the Virtual Universe.
Looking at the spot where his disciple, Dragon Whale King, had just been, the Ganwu Country Lord shook his head. "That Longjing guy seems to have gotten luckier too."
The Ganwu Country Lord could clearly feel that his luck had improved a lot since he took Lu Qingshan as his disciple. He never expected that even the Dragon Whale King, who had been unlucky with him, would now be having a string of good fortunes.
Even he was extremely envious of that set of True Treasure.
"Many old friends have recently visited that Cosmic Secret Realm and had quite a good experience. Want to go check it out too?"
The Ganwu Country Lord was somewhat tempted.
Although he lacks Supreme Treasure and his strength is greatly reduced, what if he gets lucky and obtains a treasure?
The flame in my heart was extinguished before it could even ignite.
"Forget it, if he were to perish again, it would probably take a long time to revive... He might not even get to see Qingshan break through to the Universe Venerable. Let's wait and see. Once Qingshan breaks through, we can go on adventures together. It would be good to have a reliable helper by our side."
The Ancestral God Religion, Treasure Land.
The news that the Dragon Whale King had obtained a True Treasure armor spread like wildfire.
Although many Universe Venerable felt it was nothing special, for those who inherited the True Treasure of King Rank, a piece of armor was still incredibly precious, True Treasure to dozens of ordinary weapons.
Moreover, the treasures stored in this Treasure Land are of relatively high quality; even the armor is enough to make many people envious.
One by one, the inheritors, in groups of three or five, began to sweep across the various mountain ranges.
There are even more people trying their luck here than after the Seven Sword King obtained their inheritance last time.
The last Seven Sword King were at least top-tier Human Race geniuses, but this Dragon Whale King... although stronger, that was hard-earned, and his talent was only average. Most of the inheritors from various races who came to the Ancestral God Religion had better talent than the Dragon Whale King. The Dragon Whale King could obtain treasures, so why couldn't they?
"Look, the King Xue You has gone to those 108 highest peaks."
People noticed Lu Qingshan heading towards the 108 peaks and started discussing it.
" King Xue You is probably getting anxious too. He's come to the Treasure Land twice and hasn't obtained any inheritance. Last time he encountered the Seven Sword King the treasure, and this time he encountered the Dragon Whale King the treasure, but he's the only one who didn't get anything... If it were me, I'd probably be anxious too."
"Yes, I've heard that many people in the Hongmeng Alliance are paying attention to when the King Xue You will come to the Treasure Land next..."
What does this mean?
"Think about it, the King Xue You came to the Treasure Land twice, and both times the inheritors were from the Hongmeng Alliance Hongmeng Alliance. Those guys probably think the King Xue You is their lucky charm."
"Is that even possible? But it is indeed a coincidence... How many years has this Treasure Land not been opened? It hasn't been that long, and the King Xue You has come twice and opened it twice, and the key point is that both times the Hongmeng Alliance inheritors obtained the treasure."
"What you're saying makes some sense..."
There are actually not many inheritors of the skills on the 108 highest peaks.
After all, these 108 peaks are permanent and fixed. Almost every inheritor of the Ancestral God Religion has explored them countless times, and they probably remember exactly how many blades of grass are on them.
After repeated disappointments, no one wanted to waste any more time... After all, these 108 peaks are quite large, and it would take a long time to explore them all.
Lu Qingshan landed on a large mountain.
After pausing briefly in one place, they arrived at another. The mountain range was too vast, and no one knew where the treasure was hidden, unlike that small mountain peak where they could easily wander around at will.
After quickly exploring one mountain without any response, Lu Qingshan moved on to the next peak.
He was also a little frustrated.
Although his desire for this Treasure Land was far less than that of the other inheritors, he figured he might as well take the treasure.
Unexpectedly, both the Seven Sword King and the Dragon Whale King opened the treasure, while he himself did not react at all.
He did know the conditions for opening a treasure, which was one of the 108 peaks, albeit ranked last. However, that place required the World Lord to possess the will of Universe Venerable, as well as other conditions, to open it, Lu Qingshan naturally could not meet.
"Wasn't it said that Special Lifeform have a higher probability of opening treasures? How come it doesn't seem to be the case at all? Should I wait until I become Fourth Layer Inheritor before taking another look...?"
Just as Lu Qingshan was pondering...
Rumble!!!
The mountains collapsed and the earth cracked.
A series of colorful rays of light covered the entire mountain peak!
Lu Qingshan steadied himself, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"It's activated!"
"I should have started it."
The treasure was opened the moment he landed on the platform in the valley; there's a high probability he was the one who opened it.
This is one of the 108 highest peaks; the treasures inside must be extraordinary!
This time, the opening of the treasure was far more significant than the previous two.
No matter where you are in the Inheritance Land, as long as you look up, you can see that among the majestic peaks, one mountain is covered by colorful Aurora, and you can even see that the mountain is swaying.
"My God! It's one of the 108 highest peaks, and it's even ranked 18th."
Who opened the treasure chest?
"The 18th ranked mountain... what treasure could be inside? It must be Supreme Treasure!"
Countless people flew swiftly towards the mountain, which was already covered in multicolored light, making it impossible to enter. Even if Universe Venerable were to force their way in, they would be instantly killed.
Who is it!
"Who!"
Just as everyone was asking questions, figures were thrown out one after another; they were the inheritors who had been in this mountain peak.
Looking at the majestic mountains before them, they felt a mixture of envy and disappointment. When the treasure was opened, each of them had felt immense joy, but now that joy had turned into regret and shock.
"It's the King Xue You; he hasn't come out."
"It must be King Xue You. I just greeted him, and he's still here!"
" King Xue You is incredibly lucky."
"This is a treasure ranked 18th! King Xue You has really struck it rich this time!"
The King Xue You is renowned, so if he were to open an ordinary treasure, no one would be too surprised. But this is the 18th ranked treasure, which even Universe Venerable covet.
Among the many inheritors present, each was rapidly passing on information.
The Demon Race inheritors were devastated, as if they had lost their parents.
The Special Lifeform and the inheritors of the Hongmeng Alliance were surprised, but also filled with envy.
At this moment, we are on the 18th ranked mountain, on a huge platform.
The mountain collapsed, forming a bottomless abyss. Under Lu Qingshan's gaze, a World Ring flew out of the abyss.
He reached out and caught it.
"This is..."
My gaze swept over it.
A voice came out of nowhere, as if it entered his very soul.
[I am the Old Ancestral God of the Ancestral God Religion. Today, having created this Treasure Land, I have placed within it a priceless Supreme Treasure I acquired long ago, the ' Rotating Light Moonlight Palace,' awaiting a destined person to open it.]
Activation conditions:
"First, it must be Special Lifeform."
Secondly, lifespan is within ten thousand epochs.
"Thirdly, the lowest level of the Path of the Beast God is the Third Layer of perfection."
Fourth, he created the Immortal Ultimate Secret Technique.
