The Ganwu Mystic Region: Wind Thunder Island.
In the cultivation room of the villa halfway up the mountain, Lu Qingshan ended the call, his expression turning somewhat gloomy.
The call was from Luo Er, his butler at the Ganwu Dojo Manor, who told him that a mysterious powerful figure had recently come to his door.
Since Lu Qingshan was only temporarily transferred to the secret realm, his manor was preserved. Now that he has been promoted to a special-grade instructor, his status and position have greatly increased. Unless necessary, the headquarters of the dojo will not take back the manor.
Therefore, Luo Er remained his butler, and the servants and cook in the villa were still responsible for him...
"They really are persistent!"
Lu Qingshan was very careful this time, only asking Yang for leave and asking him to keep it a secret.
At the Ganwu Dojo, only Luo Er knew that he had gone back. Even Chi Yan, Jimi, and other familiar First-Class Instructor did not know that he had ever returned to the manor.
Even so, they were still discovered...
This suggests that someone was keeping an eye on his residence. Was he spotted delivering goods for the Universe Galaxy Bank? Or was it when he left at night?
Lu Qingshan was glad he had acted decisively. If he hadn't returned to the secret realm immediately after retrieving the goods, he probably would have been cornered by that mysterious expert.
Even if the other party doesn't dare to attack him at the headquarters of the Ganwu Dojo, it's still dangerous to face a being that might be Immortal. Who knows what unknown methods the other party might have?
"I should break through to the World Lord level as soon as possible. If I want revenge, my current strength is not enough..."
"Now let's see if these Sangsong Fruit can bring about the desired results."
Lu Qingshan was eager to break through to the World Lord level. Only by breaking through to the World Lord, with his understanding of the Higher Law, would he have the ability to contend with the Immortal.
Lu Qingshan sent a message to Lei Ming and Parisi, asking them to come to his villa.
While waiting, Lu Qingshan called Yang.
"Brother Yang, I've heard you've been in Ganwu City for hundreds of years. I'd like to ask you about something."
"Brother Qingshan, I'm not bragging, but as long as it doesn't involve the secrets of the Universe Country, there's nothing in Ganwu City, big or small, that I don't know."
"I'd like to ask who's behind this Treasure Pavilion?"
Lu Qingshan voiced his doubts.
He had previously asked Nasus to find out who the Immortal being behind the Treasure Pavilion was, but unfortunately, he didn't get a satisfactory answer.
Immortal God remain hidden behind the scenes and generally do not reveal their identities publicly.
"Brother Qingshan, why are you asking this? This Treasure Pavilion is no ordinary place..."
"Haha, I have a treasure I'm planning to trade with the Treasure Pavilion for, so I'm just asking around to see if it's reliable..."
"I see. The Treasure Pavilion has a pretty good reputation in Ganwu City. I haven't heard any negative news about it in recent years. Behind the Treasure Pavilion is an Immortal being, a subordinate of the great Universe Country Lord named Kunshaluo, who is an extremely powerful being!"
"Thank you for informing me, Brother Yang..."
Lu Qingshan thanked him and then hung up the phone.
really!
If I'm not mistaken, the one coveting the Locke Divine Water on me is probably this Immortal, or one of the most crucial subordinates of this Immortal.
After all, their actions have severely damaged the reputation of the Treasure Pavilion, and other minor figures do not have the audacity or courage to do so.
Kunshaluo...
This name seems somewhat familiar.
Oh, it seems this was the person who went to deliver the message to Luo Feng, telling him that he must join the Ganwu Mystic Region after the Genius Battle.
Luo Feng's initial strength was average, only at the threshold of the Metal Origin Law. Who knew that Luo Feng would later cultivate a Moshan Clan Clone, quickly master the Law of Space, and eventually break into the top ten, entering the Primordial Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company, at which point the matter had to be dropped...
Moreover, this guy seems to have an irreconcilable hatred for the Black Dragon Mountain God Lord?
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If we need to deal with this guy in the future, perhaps we can cooperate with the Black Dragon Mountain God Lord.
"Teacher."
Half an hour later, the two disciples arrived at the villa.
In recent years, their strength has improved a lot. Lei Ming's domain has reached the Eighth Level Domain, while Parisi is still a little short, currently at the peak of the seventh level... However, in terms of combat power, Lei Ming may not be his match.
Lu Qingshan asked, "How have you been doing in the secret realm lately?"
"Teacher, my junior brother and I are doing very well in the secret realm. Instructor Bai Mei values us highly and the tasks he assigns us are not dangerous, and we get excellent training..."
"Hmm." Lu Qingshan nodded, knowing that his words from a few years ago had been taken to heart by Bai Mei.
Bai Mei wasn't exactly old-fashioned. After all, he didn't have to put in any effort himself. He only needed to allocate some of the secret realm's resources to Lei Ming and Parisi to gain Lu Qingshan's gratitude. This deal was quite worthwhile for Bai Mei as well.
"I've called you here today because I have something for you."
Hearing their teacher's words, Lei Ming and Parisi exchanged a glance, thinking to themselves, "Just as I thought..."
Although the teachers haven't given them any substantial gifts in recent years, they are still the same teachers, as generous as ever.
With a wave of his hand, Lu Qingshan conjured several boxes of Sangsong Fruit in front of the two of them.
"These are Sangsong Fruit. They're not expensive, but they're rare. At least in the Ganwu Universe Country, very few places produce them. They're used to aid in soul transformation... You're now at the Star Level, so using these Sangsong Fruit to build a foundation should be quite effective."
Thank you, teacher...
Lei Ming and Parisi expressed their gratitude in unison.
This time they didn't refuse. They had just looked up the Sangsong Fruit, and compared to the treasures their teacher had given them before, it wasn't expensive, but it was very rare. Their teacher must have put in a lot of effort for them, so they naturally couldn't refuse the teacher's kindness.
"Um."
Lu Qingshan smiled faintly, "How to use it is very simple, you can look it up yourselves. Also, focus on cultivating your own domains and don't waste your energy on other things. Don't worry about your Cloud-Touching Vine advancing, I will prepare it for you..."
"Teacher, we can do it ourselves..." Lei Ming felt a warmth in his heart. It seemed that his teacher had been paying attention to them and knew that they had recently exchanged for treasures that could promote the evolution of the Cloud-Touching Vine.
They are now at the Star Level Nine, with no further advancement possible. The only ways to improve their strength, besides their domains and laws, are through plant life.
With their teacher's help, their previous Cloud-Touching Vine had already been upgraded to the Universe Level 1. To continue upgrading, they needed too many resources. The two of them were basically poor, and they had spent all the rewards they received from entering the secret realm on gifts for their teacher.
"These meager resources mean nothing to your teacher. Remember, raise your domain to the ninth level as soon as possible... You've probably received some information over the years that without the strength of Ninth Level of the Domain, participating in that grand event will only make you cannon fodder..."
Over the years, news of the Genius Battle has been rampant in the secret realm, and Lu Qingshan knew that his two disciples must have learned something about it.
"Teacher, it seems the news was true! There are only twelve years left?"
Lei Ming's eyes lit up. They had only heard about it before and weren't entirely sure.
"That's right... Twelve years from now will be the time to see how you perform!"
Lu Qingshan confirmed.
"Teacher, I will definitely work hard and not let you down!"
Lei Ming and Parisi answered in unison.
