Buzz!!
In an instant, the divine power of the Silver Eyes almost covered the entire palace, and the area in front of it was Time Stop.
The countless compound eyes on Silver Eyes opened, revealing a shocked expression on their faces.
Who on earth was able to send a sound into his ears so silently?
" Silver Eyes, is this how you welcome me?"
The palace gates slowly opened, and Lu Qingshan stepped in. The Time Stop of the Silver Eyes seemed to have completely lost its effect on him, and he walked straight up to the Silver Eyes.
" Human Race!"
The compound eyes on Silver Eyes widened in disbelief.
Have I been playing games for too long and neglected practicing the rules?
Even my most prized possession Time Stop, didn't work!
"You still call me Human Race? Have you forgotten the promise you made to me before I left?"
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly, and at the same time, the aura of Universe Venerable was revealed.
" Universe Venerable —you are already Universe Venerable— " Silver Eyes was somewhat incredulous. In just two short eras, that Human Race who had left the Ice Prison had truly broken through to the Universe Venerable realm.
And as promised, they came to the Ice Prison to take him away.
"Grown ups."
Silver Eyes removed the Time Stop space and spoke respectfully. They had made an agreement that when the Human Race took him away, he would have to pledge allegiance to them and work for them.
Faced with a being of Universe Venerable level, he had no intention of breaking the contract.
"Never mind!"
Lu Qingshan shook his head.
"You are a Special Lifeform with some talent. It would be a waste to take you as a henchman. How about you become my disciple?"
Silver Eyes paused for a moment.
I never expected them to say that.
Just as I was pondering this, another voice came.
Do you think I'm not qualified to be your teacher?
Silver Eyes jolted, immediately kneeling on the ground. "Disciple greets Master."
"Alright—from now on you will be my disciple, Lu Qingshan's disciple."
Lu Qingshan looked at the kneeling Silver Eyes with a satisfied expression. Another Second-Class Genius disciple, and Second-Class Genius at the Peak King, whose strength was comparable to the Invincible King.
If properly nurtured, he might just become the next Universe Venerable!
" Lu Qingshan —Lu Qingshan So that's the name of the Human Race— "
Silver Eyes was still reeling from the rapidly changing relationship, her mind racing with thoughts.
"Don't have any doubts. Becoming my disciple is absolutely the best choice for you."
Lu Qingshan took a step forward, and a divine force pulled Silver Eyes to her feet. He seemed to have seen through Silver Eyes's thoughts.
"I wouldn't dare."
Silver Eyes quickly shook her head.
"Since you've become my disciple, consider this armor a gift. Get ready; I'll take you away now."
Lu Qingshan threw over a Heavy Treasure Armor.
Silver Eyes quickly took it.
He then realized that this Heavy Treasure Armor looked very familiar; it was originally the armor he was wearing.
Silver Eyes skillfully donned the armor; he had already deciphered its secret runes and only needed to recognize it as his master to use it.
He then put away the anonymous sensor from the Virtual Universe and took several items from the palace before saying, "Master, your disciple is ready."
"Hmm, no rush, it seems there's been a small problem."
Lu Qingshan said calmly.
Silver Eyes up, he sensed dozens of enormous auras flying towards him. His expression changed slightly, but then, remembering that the person beside him was Universe Venerable, his expression relaxed.
The two went outside.
A group of figures landed outside the palace.
" Human Race, it really is you! You've returned!"
" Human Race, take me away; I can seek refuge with you."
" Human Race, if you don't take us with you, we won't let you and Silver Eyes leave."
One after another, figures landed outside the palace, each with an expectant look in their eyes. These powerful figures were all strong among the King Rank. The one leading them, wearing a black bamboo hat, had a dangerous glint in his eyes. He was none other than Black Wind, who had briefly cooperated with Lu Qingshan.
As for the others, they are all powerful figures from the Ice Prison, including several of the Ten Great Pinnacle King Rank.
" Black Wind, did you bring all these people?"
Silver Eyes rebuked.
" Silver Eyes —There's no other way. Everyone wants to get out, and only the Human Race has that hope. I know the Human Race has a good relationship with you and might be able to take you away, so I've been keeping an eye on you—and sure enough, my efforts haven't been in vain."
Black Wind laughed loudly and said...
Then he looked at Lu Qingshan and said, " Human Race, take us with you. Only in this way can you and Silver Eyes leave the Ice Prison safely."
"Yes, Human Race, take us with you."
I'm leaving!
Many people echoed this sentiment.
Looking at the Black Wind stirring up the other powerful figures, Lu Qingshan smiled slightly and said, "This Ice Prison is True Treasure of a powerful Universe Venerable of the Kou Clan. How could you possibly leave without his permission? You've come to the wrong person."
"I don't care about all that. You Human Race must have a way. You took the Snow Demon Race away before, and now you want to take Silver Eyes. You must have a plan. If you don't take us with you, nobody's leaving!"
"Yes, at worst we'll all die together, no one is allowed to leave."
"I've long since given up on life. If we can't leave, let's die together."
The powerful figures were filled with righteous indignation, some even drawing their weapons, seemingly oblivious to Lu Qingshan's explanation.
Black Wind seized the opportunity and said, " Human Race, we all think the same way. If we can't get you out of here, you and Silver Eyes will not only be unable to leave, but you will also die here!"
"Heh, is that so?" Lu Qingshan turned his gaze to Black Wind, the instigator, and said with a smile, "You think you can stop me and Silver Eyes with this bunch of lousy fish? Aren't you thinking a bit too much?"
" Human Race, we outnumber you and are in a strong position. Even if you and Silver Eyes join forces—" Before Black Wind could finish speaking, his pupils suddenly contracted, and a huge hand slammed towards him.
bump!!
Black Wind's body vanished instantly, like a punctured balloon, without even a second of resistance.
The five kings of Ice Prison, though hailed as Invincible King, are still far from being truly invincible like the True Yan King. At most, they are only close to being invincible like the Seven Sword King.
With such strength, Lu Qingshan naturally didn't need any secret techniques or weapons to make a move.
Whew!!
The Ice Prison experts who had come with Black Wind all retreated, even the two who had previously said they were not afraid of death and wanted to die together did so.
They all looked in terror toward the direction of the Black Wind.
A king-level being had his divine body shattered with a single slap! This Human Race is too powerful!
Black Wind did not die.
His divine body reformed after a long time, but it was clear that his aura had dropped, and he was not even as strong as a typical High King.
Black Wind's face was filled with despair and fear.
He initially thought his plan was successful, having caught Human Race and the Silver Eyes, but he had underestimated their strength.
With just one move, a seemingly ordinary slap, fifty-one percent of his body was obliterated.
This Human Race —is probably already Universe Venerable.
" Black Wind —why did you stop talking?"
Lu Qingshan took a step forward, and Black Wind was so frightened that he quickly retreated.
"I'm glad we cooperated once before, so I'm showing mercy and sparing your life. Hand over your True Treasure, and you can leave now."
Which is better, the True Treasure or your life?
Black Wind made his choice quickly.
Two True Treasure flew towards Lu Qingshan: a True Treasure battle suit and a short sword.
After throwing his weapon, Black Wind turned and ran without hesitation. Staying here meant not only the Human Race and Silver Eyes might kill him, but also those at the Peak King or Pinnacle King Rank realm!
Lu Qingshan ignored him and then looked at the several people in the crowd who Pinnacle King Rank.
"You are in the same boat. Hand over the True Treasure, or die—the choice is yours."
Several of those Pinnacle King Rank looked apprehensive.
Black Wind, one of the five great kings, was almost killed with a single slap, and this was only because the Human Race showed mercy. This Human Race must be Universe Venerable.
"My lord, I am willing to hand over this True Treasure."
The White Bone King tossed over a True Treasure, then turned and left.
"Me too."
Another Pinnacle King Rank also threw out True Treasure.
In a short while, including the two items Black Wind had contributed earlier, Lu Qingshan had five more True Treasure in his possession, all delivered to his doorstep.
Looking at the dozens of anxious and uneasy Peak King who remained in the same spot, they had no True Treasure and dared not escape, and were all filled with fear and unease.
"Thank you for the warm farewell, brothers of Ice Prison. See you again someday."
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly, and then, under everyone's gaze, he and Silver Eyes passed through the passage above the Ice Prison and left the Ice Prison!
"Senior Venerable Qingkou, see you next time."
Okay, please give my regards to your teacher.
Outside the Ice Prison, Venerable Qingkou watched Lu Qingshan leave on his spaceship and couldn't help but nod.
"This is extraordinary, truly extraordinary—to become Universe Venerable in just over a dozen epochs, Human Race is likely about to give birth to another pillar-level being!"
After Lu Qingshan went to the Ice Prison, Venerable Qing Kou inquired with the Ganwu Country Lord. Since the Ganwu Country Lord had offered him an opportunity to show off, he naturally did not hide anything and told his old friend about Lu Qingshan's situation.
These messages weren't exactly secrets; it's just that the Wuhua Secret Realm was too far away, and Venerable Qing Kou didn't care about news from the Human Race, so he was unaware of them.
Venerable Qing Kou looked in the direction of the Ice Prison.
"That Black Wind is ruthless, vindictive, and cunning—although Lu Qingshan spared him, he will inevitably harbor resentment. If he manages to escape from the Ice Prison in the future, he might seek revenge—"
Venerable Qing Kou narrowed his eyes slightly.
Although Ice Prison was under his control and the Black Wind could not possibly leave, nothing is absolute. Even Venerable Qing Kou could not be certain that he would not perish.
If Black Wind manages to escape and then seeks revenge on Lu Qingshan, and given that he comes from the Ice Prison, wouldn't that affect the relationship between the Kou Clan and Lu Qingshan?
Venerable Qingkou intended to eliminate any future troubles.
However, when he intended to use the Ice Prison's sealing power to completely annihilate the Black Wind.
The Black Wind, who was hiding in a corner of the Ice Prison sea, suddenly had a burst of divine power erupt from his already severely injured body, and his body was completely annihilated, leaving him with no chance of survival.
"This----"
This startled Venerable Qing Kou, who was about to make a move, and he looked again in the direction Lu Qingshan had left.
I have gained some new insights into this old friend's disciple.
Originally, they thought the other party was kind-hearted and that letting go of the others was no problem, but letting go of Black Wind, the mastermind, would be unwise. However, they never expected that Lu Qingshan had no intention of letting him go. The reason he didn't kill him immediately was simply because he didn't want to delay his demand for the True Treasure from the others.
The distant Human Territory.
In a secluded corner of the starry sky, Lu Qingshan and Silver Eyes walked out of the Divine Kingdom Passage together.
"The teacher is too lenient; Black Wind deserves to die."
Thinking about what had happened before, her Silver Eyes still held a hint of anger.
If their teacher hadn't been Universe Venerable, and hadn't been besieged by so many people, they might never have had a chance to escape the Ice Prison.
That Black Wind is truly despicable! He schemed against him.
"It's alright, that Black Wind is just a grasshopper in autumn, it won't last long." Lu Qingshan smiled slightly.
Then he took out a token and said, "This is my Divine Power Token. With this, you can move freely within the Human Territory and avoid misunderstandings. If you encounter danger, I will know if you crush the token."
"Master, where have I gone?"
Silver Eyes accepted the token.
"Go to the Maple Leaf Empire of the Ganwu Universe Country. That's my hometown. Help me guard it. You don't need to get involved in the minor matters."
Lu Qingshan gave the instructions.
"Yes, disciple understands." Silver Eyes nodded and began searching for news about the Maple Leaf Empire in the Virtual Universe. Guarding the family was a very leisurely job and wouldn't interfere with his game.
Lu Qingshan asked, "Is there anything you need?"
Silver Eyes thought for a moment, "This disciple doesn't lack anything. If Master has sufficient funds, you could transfer some Hunyuan Unit to my Virtual Universe account. My funds are running low."
"Okay, I'll top up your account when I have time."
Watching the Silver Eyes leave, Lu Qingshan opened a passage back to his Divine Kingdom, and then took out a Heavy Treasure Armor.
" Top-Tier Heavy Treasure, the Wind Thunder Armor!"
After checking the armor's level, Lu Qingshan had some ideas.
It seems that the True Treasure bestowed upon a genius with the second-class aptitude of the Peak King is likely to be Top-Tier Heavy Treasure.
That's how True Yan King was back then, and that's how Silver Eyes was too.
Perhaps only when Ling Yu breaks through to Immortal and is bestowed with True Treasure can the Supreme Treasure be brought back.
No rush, Zhen Yan should be breaking through to the Universe Venerable soon!
