The Initial Universe, the Chaos City, the City Lord's Mansion.

While still in the Ganwu Universe Country, Lu Qingshan received an email from the City Lord's Mansion, instructing him to visit the City Lord's Mansion upon his return. Therefore, after returning to the Initial Universe, Lu Qingshan came here immediately.

" Myriad Laws Venerable, congratulations on your breakthrough. Your teacher has been waiting inside for quite some time."

The Venerable Guiyi, dressed in a long red robe and with a bald head, wore a smile.

"Thank you, Venerable Guiyi."

Lu Qingshan nodded before stepping into the Chaos Ruins.

It was the same familiar scene.

Even now, as Universe Venerable, he still felt a sense of unease upon arriving in this space. It was as if everything here was out of his control, and he seemed to have no secrets in this space.

After Lu Qingshan entered, the Chaos City Lord, dressed in crimson armor, turned around.

" Lu Qingshan, congratulations on becoming Universe Venerable."

" Qingshan only managed to comprehend the concept of time by sheer luck; I am grateful for the city lord's continued care."

Lu Qingshan bowed sincerely.

"Becoming Universe Venerable is no accident," the Chaos City Lord said calmly. "Although I was certain you would reach this point, I didn't expect you to break through so quickly. Myriad Laws Venerable... In countless eras of Human Race, apart from that one person, your speed of progress is undoubtedly the fastest."

"You flatter me, Qingshan Lord. I am ashamed."

Lu Qingshan naturally knew who the Chaos City Lord was referring to, but he pretended not to know.

" Myriad Laws Venerable, you should have read all the emails the company sent you. Every Human Race Universe Venerable breaks through receives a quota of 100 True Treasure Points. You can choose any treasure within your authority. In addition... because of your exceptional talent, you are a rare genius among Human Race. Therefore, I have discussed with several Universe Master and we plan to bestow upon you an extra reward."

While they were talking.

With a wave of his hand, the Chaos City Lord summoned a suit of armor, entirely purple and covered in mysterious patterns, which floated in front of Lu Qingshan.

The armor is made up of individual scales, making it look Jia Yi.

The Chaos City Lord glanced at the armor and said, "This is the Purple Lightning Dragon Scale Armor, crafted from the scales of Innate Beast God. It's incredibly valuable, a high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor, and perfectly suited for your use. You should accept it."

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord City Lord."

Lu Qingshan quickly bowed before carefully accepting the armor.

The Purple Lightning Dragon Scale Armor, judging from its name, is probably armor categorized under the Time Origin Law, which is perfect for his use. The key is that it is a high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor, and most Universe Overlord probably don't even have such good treatment.

"Although this armor is High-grade Supreme Treasure, it's already considered quite good among High-grade Supreme Treasure. Go back and study it carefully, understand the secret runes on it, and it can protect your safety."

Before Lu Qingshan could reply, the Chaos City Lord continued.

"You are now Universe Venerable. I have granted you access to the Human Race Treasury. From now on, you will only need to submit an application to enter the Human Race Treasury. The treasury is located in the side hall of the City Lord's Mansion. You can go and take a look later. No application is required for your first entry."

"Yes, Lord City Lord."

Lu Qingshan nodded.

Access to the Human Race Treasury is extremely valuable, as it contains the most exquisite treasures of the Human Race. If he had had access back then, he wouldn't have needed his teacher, the Ganwu Country Lord, to help him exchange for the Illusory Gold Spirit.

With the cashback program for his disciples, he'll surely accumulate a lot of useless treasures in the future. Having such a platform allows him to easily convert these useless treasures into True Treasure and Supreme Treasure artifacts that suit his needs...

" Myriad Laws Venerable and Universe Venerable are already top-tier powerhouses of the Human Race. While enjoying the reverence of Human Race, they also have the responsibility to protect their respective territories and contribute to the development of the Human Race. I have sent you many tasks in your mailbox. You can choose one to make some contributions to the Human Race without interfering with your own cultivation."

Lu Qingshan was not surprised.

Let alone ordinary Universe Venerable like them, even Top Universe Overlord like the Tian Shi Palace Master and the Star Prison Demon Lord have places they need to guard, let alone others.

However, the task of the Universe Venerable is very easy. Generally speaking, as long as he is in a certain place, he is a huge deterrent. He can leave some trivial matters to his subordinates to complete, and he has plenty of time to cultivate.

Lu Qingshan took a look.

Having found one that seemed suitable, he said, "Lord, I choose to cultivate geniuses for the Human Race in the Initial Universe."

"Yes, you can submit the task yourself. You just need to give a lecture once per era as required, and you will also receive corresponding points as a reward."

The Chaos City Lord seemed to have already guessed that Lu Qingshan would choose this mission.

He waved his hand and said, "I've told you everything I needed to. You may leave."

"Yes, Lord City Lord."

Lu Qingshan nodded and turned to leave.

Within the Chaos Ruins, the Chaos City Lord looked in the direction where Lu Qingshan had disappeared and revealed a slight smile.

" Lu Qingshan did indeed choose this mission."

The teaching task didn't originally exist; it was added by the Chaos City Lord himself. For other Universe Venerable, teaching is a waste of their talents; they'd be better off staying in charge of a region, at most taking on a few disciples to train.

But Lu Qingshan Lu Qingshan different. Judging from the performance of the disciples he has trained, teaching is his forte, where he can truly unleash his talents.

The key point is that the Chaos City Lord also sensed that Lu Qingshan didn't seem interested in taking charge of a region.

Lu Qingshan is too steady... so steady that he seems like an old man who has lived for countless years, which is not the personality of a top genius at all.

Logically speaking, it would be difficult to become a strong person under such circumstances, but Lu Qingshan cannot be judged by common sense. He has already proven with his strength that there is no problem with doing so. His progress is still rapid, and he has even broken the record for the fastest Human Race to become Universe Venerable.

Even the Chaos City Lord was somewhat curious: could Lu Qingshan truly continue cultivating in seclusion like this and become the Universe Master?

Perhaps... it doesn't necessarily mean complete seclusion.

The Chaos City Lord recalled the scene when Lu Qingshan broke through to the Immortal God in the Primal Secret Region.

" Lu Qingshan should have a Special Life Clone with a huge size. Perhaps his Clone has been wandering in the outside world, but others are just unaware of it."

This secret was known only to him, and the Chaos City Lord naturally wouldn't say more.

What if I guessed wrong?

Wouldn't that be too embarrassing?

The Primal Universe was so vast that even the Universe Supreme Master dared not claim to know everything, let alone someone who was merely a Universe Master.

But regardless, Lu Qingshan is a disciple of the Ganwu Country Lord, a true Human Race... and that's enough.

Ganwu...

When the Chaos City Lord came up with this name, he also looked up some information about the person.

" The Ganwu Country Lord commissioned the forging of a custom-made, Heavy Treasure Armor? And he's going around exchanging it for True Treasure. What is he trying to do?"

The Chaos City Lord felt a little curious.

Could it be that with two disciples breaking through to the level of Universe Venerable, Ganwu can no longer resist venturing out into the world?

Outside an Elder Gu side hall in Chaos City.

" Myriad Laws Venerable, the treasure vault is right here. I won't go in without an application."

Venerable Guiyi pointed to the bronze gate in front of him.

"Thank you for leading the way Venerable Guiyi."

Lu Qingshan said politely.

" Myriad Laws Venerable, you're too kind. Go ahead. You can see many treasures of the Human Race inside. Since this is your first time entering, don't be overwhelmed by the choices," Myriad Laws Venerable Guiyi with a smile.

"Just 100 True Treasure Points shouldn't be a problem."

Lu Qingshan nodded and walked towards the gate. After recognizing his identity, the hundred-meter-high bronze gate slowly opened with a rumbling sound.

After Lu Qingshan stepped inside, the door slammed shut again with a loud bang.

"Is this the Race Treasury?"

The entire space was empty, with only a huge millstone a hundred meters in diameter in front of them.

As Lu Qingshan walked to the millstone, a gentle voice reached his ears.

"You can place the treasures that need to be contributed on the stone plate."

"Let's give it a try!"

As instructed, Lu Qingshan took out the Demon Sound Fire God Bell and placed it in the center of the stone plate. He had never used this thing since he acquired it.

As soon as he placed it on the bell, a beam of light enveloped the Demon Sound Fire God Bell.

"Special type of True Treasure, combining defense and offense, with a recycling price of 89 True Treasure Points. Lu Qingshan, would you like to contribute it to the clan?"

The gentle voice rang out again.

The recognition efficiency was so high that Lu Qingshan said no and took back the Demon Sound Fire God Bell.

Since this wasn't True Treasure that came with a cashback offer, and there was still a chance to get a cashback, Lu Qingshan decided to keep it for himself.

Then he took out the Purple Lightning Dragon Scale Armor that the Chaos City Lord had just given him and placed it on the stone plate.

The gentle voice rang out again.

" Purple Lightning Dragon Scale Armor, a high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor, worth 49 Supreme Treasure Point when recycled. Lu Qingshan, could you contribute it to your clan?"

"No."

Lu Qingshan then put his armor back in.

This armor was just bestowed upon him by the Chaos City Lord. Selling it immediately would be a slap in the face to the other party. He was only asking about the price and had no intention of selling it, but he was still somewhat surprised when he saw the price.

49 points of Supreme Treasure Point!

This is a huge asset. You have to understand that the Ganwu Country Lord's master was already struggling to breathe because he only owed four Supreme Treasure Point, and the Ganwu Country Lord was High Venerable.

Among the thousands of Human Race Universe Venerable, only a very small number possess Supreme Treasure. The vast majority of High Venerable do not possess Supreme Treasure... not to mention low-level and Intermediate Venerable, it is virtually impossible for them to possess Supreme Treasure.

As for Universe Overlord, they might possess one or more Supreme Treasure, Top Universe Overlord naturally possess even more Supreme Treasure.

Upon breaking through to the Universe Venerable, he was bestowed with a high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor, a treatment that is already considered extremely high for the Human Race.

Lu Qingshan tried the Heart Soul Pearl again.

This Soul Defense True Treasure is only of ordinary top-grade level, worth 340 True Treasure Points, which is still quite good.

"I want to access the Human Race Treasury."

Lu Qingshan spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, a gray screen flew up from the center of the stone slab and appeared right in front of Lu Qingshan.

In the center of the gray screen, treasures are arranged according to their categories.

There are four categories in total.

True Treasure, Supreme Treasure Treasures, Materials, and Special Resources.

"View Supreme Treasure."

As Lu Qingshan spoke, the text on the gray screen scrolled, revealing the next level of the table of contents.

It is also divided into several categories: Ordinary Supreme Treasure, High-grade Supreme Treasure, Top-tier Supreme Treasure, Peak Supreme Treasure, and Supreme Supreme Treasure.

However, among the five categories in front of him, only the first two categories, Ordinary Supreme Treasure and High-grade Supreme Treasure, were lit up; the other three were grayed out and could not be accessed.

In other words, Lu Qingshan's current authority only allows him to view treasures of High-grade Supreme Treasure and below.

Lu Qingshan looked at the category of Supreme Supreme Treasure.

The Human Race doesn't actually have Supreme Supreme Treasure, yet they created this category; it's probably just for aesthetic purposes.

Lu Qingshan quickly assessed the value of this Supreme Treasure.

Ordinary Supreme Treasure weapons are extremely cheap, with the lowest costing only 0.8 Supreme Treasure Point and the highest only 8.

High-grade Supreme Treasure weapons require a minimum of 8 Supreme Treasure Point and a maximum of 30 points.

Of course, these are the values of the treasures stored in the Human Race Treasury. If the Human Race does not possess Supreme Treasure, they will not be included. The range is only a rough estimate and may exceed the upper or lower limit.

High-grade Supreme Treasure Armor!

Lu Qingshan specifically checked the value of the high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor and found that in the Human Race Treasury, the lowest-priced high- Supreme Treasure Armor required 16 Supreme Treasure Point, while the highest-priced high- Supreme Treasure Armor required 60 Supreme Treasure Point.

The value of Supreme Treasure Armor is roughly twice that of a Supreme Treasure Weapon.

The high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor that Lu Qingshan just acquired has a recycling price of 49 Supreme Treasure Point. If he were to buy it, it would definitely cost more than 50 Supreme Treasure Point. It seems that the Chaos City Lord was not lying. This Supreme Treasure Armor is an extremely excellent existence among high-grade Supreme Treasure Armor, at least in the Human Race Treasury.

Lu Qingshan scanned through the Supreme Treasure at lightning speed, memorizing their functions and values.

He was dazzled by the sheer number of Supreme Treasure.

In particular, those flying Palace-type Supreme Treasure, Domain-type Supreme Treasure, and soul defense-type Supreme Treasure are extremely valuable. Even Ordinary Supreme Treasure require at least a dozen points, and some require hundreds of points.

Due to their extremely high value, Lu Qingshan could only see the ordinary level of these three categories of Supreme Treasure, and only a small portion of the High-grade Supreme Treasure.

After examining the Supreme Treasure, Lu Qingshan checked the True Treasure next. The True Treasure were only divided into two categories: Ordinary Heavy Treasure and Top-Tier Heavy Treasure.

There were too many True Treasure to count, so Lu Qingshan had Nasus record them, while he focused on the Domain Type True Treasure.

What he lacks most right now is a Domain Type treasure; he doesn't have a single one... He plans to use the 100 True Treasure Points bestowed upon him by his clan to purchase a Domain Type True Treasure.

A common- Domain Type True Treasure could be bestowed upon a disciple with a cashback reward, which would be sufficient for his own use.

"This one will do!"

Lu Qingshan's gaze fell on an ordinary Domain Type True Treasure worth exactly 100 True Treasure Points.

Among the many Ordinary Heavy Treasure in various Domain Type, this treasure only ranks in the middle.

Lu Qingshan bought it mainly because of its attributes.

" Sinking Rock Hourglass!"

This is Ordinary Heavy Treasure of the earth Domain Type, capable of releasing a sand domain spanning tens of millions of kilometers, suppressing the opponent's speed and power in battle.
