There is actually no essential difference between Universe Overlord, High Venerable, and Elementary Venerable; they all belong to the Universe Venerable.
It's simply that the Universe Overlord has a higher Gene Multiplier, stronger amplitude, more powerful secret techniques, and possesses Supreme Treasure...
The price Universe Master has to pay to resurrect Universe Venerable is extremely high. Generally, the resurrection of High Venerable can injure a Universe Master, and if the Universe Master's divine body is weaker, it may even be seriously injured.
For example, when the Mirror King was resurrected by the Master of Qilan, the Master of Qilan suffered considerable injuries.
Mirror King possesses Supreme Treasure Armor and is Special Lifeform with 2000 times the Gene Multiplier; the cost of resurrecting him is no less than that of resurrecting a High Universe Venerable.
The difficulty of resurrecting Universe Overlord is even more exaggerated. For example, if the Chaos City Lord were to forcibly resurrect Xi Luo Duo, he would risk his own demise.
Therefore, the Universe Master would never forcibly resurrect the Universe Overlord; this is generally something that the Universe Supreme Master would do.
Of course, some Universe Master must have tried it and realized it wouldn't work. The Universe Master isn't stupid; if something is impossible, he'll give up. If he really perished because of resurrection, that would be a bit far-fetched.
The fact that the Universe Master is incapable does not mean that Lu Qingshan is incapable.
In particular, Lu Qingshan's Xue You Clone already possesses a complete Small Universe within its body. Although the area of this microcosm is somewhat smaller, it can still mobilize the Universe Origin to restore its divine body, just like the Universe Supreme Master.
It might not be as easy as becoming the Universe Supreme Master, but resurrecting the Universe Overlord should be no problem at all.
With the Eternal Star River, Domain-type Supreme Treasure, in hand, the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, and the ability to easily create Sixth-Order Secret Technique, Lu Qingshan's Xue You Clone's strength had already surpassed that of the Three Ancestor Gods. Naturally, he had no need to worry about anything within the Ancestral God Religion. In the blink of an eye, Lu Qingshan and Purple Rain Venerable passed through the five-colored passage and arrived at Bauhinia Island.
They soon arrived outside an ordinary manor.
The manor had been vacant for a long time, and the area in front of the gate was covered with moss, making it look particularly desolate.
After Xi Luo Duo's death, no one ever came to the manor again.
"Teacher, this is my friend Xi Luo Duo's manor... Should we ask the Ancestral God for help?"
Purple Rain Venerable asked cautiously.
"It's alright, I'll try it first..."
Lu Qingshan spoke calmly.
"Teacher, resurrecting the Universe Overlord is extremely difficult, Teacher... please be careful..."
Purple Rain Venerable wanted to persuade him, but he held back when he thought about his current status. His teacher Demon Master Xue You, Guardian Divine Lord the Ancestral God Religion Sect, Fifth-Order Universe Master -like existence. If he knew this, his teacher must know it too.
Since you know this, and still choose to do it, there must be a reason. Could it be that the teacher is truly confident in resurrecting a Universe Overlord?
Purple Rain Venerable secretly speculated in his heart. Lu Qingshan did not explain, but simply looked at the manor.
A faint light shone in his eyes.
" Reverse Time and Space!"
boom!
The Space-Time Law completely enveloped the entire manor, causing Time-Space to flow backward and the manor's timeline to rewind.
A year, a hundred years, ten thousand years... In the blink of an eye, countless eras have passed...
This scene naturally attracted the attention of many inheritors of the tradition.
"Is Universe Master Reverse Time and Space?"
"It's the God Lord Xue You! Who is he resurrecting?"
"That looks like Xi Luo Duo's manor, the estate of the Golden Horn Race elders!"
" The God Lord Xue You actually wants to resurrect him? That's Universe Overlord! Isn't it said that only the Universe Supreme Master can be resurrected as Universe Overlord?"
Countless inheritors discussed among themselves, their eyes filled with shock. The Universe Overlord was an existence second only to the Universe Master; to resurrect them would require enduring a tremendous backlash.
Even the Universe Master wouldn't attempt this lightly.
Inside the largest palace in the Bauhinia Island square, the Bauhinia Island Master also turned his gaze in this direction.
" Demon Master Xue You to help Purple Rain Venerable resurrect his friend Xi Luo Duo?"
The Bauhinia Island Master was naturally aware of the relationship between Purple Rain Venerable and Xi Luo Duo.
He raised an eyebrow slightly.
" The Demon Master Xue You was too impulsive. He has no idea how strong the backlash from resurrecting Universe Overlord would be. He'll probably suffer a great loss this time."
"That's for the best. The Demon Master Xue You has grown too fast. He needs to experience setbacks. The future of our Ancestral God Religion still depends on the Demon Master Xue You."
The Bauhinia Island Master looked for a moment, then slowly closed his eyes.
The more he learned, the more he realized the difficulty. Unlike those who inherited the legacy, he had no belief that the Demon Master Xue You could succeed.
"Boom!!!"
The power of Time-Space grew increasingly violent, traversing Endless years in the blink of an eye. "Found it."
Lu Qingshan's gaze sharpened, locking onto a figure in the river of time.
It was a tall, robust figure nearly a hundred meters high, with a single, clearly visible horn on its head, shimmering with dark gold patterns.
Although he was tall and imposing, he was not fierce and gave people a sense of honesty and kindness.
Those who can reside in this mansion must be Xi Luo Duo.
"Come back!"
Lu Qingshan spoke calmly, and time seemed to freeze at that moment, then began to slowly accelerate.
In this process.
The backlash surged like a tidal wave, impacting Lu Qingshan's divine body.
Fine cracks began to appear on his divine body, but they were quickly repaired by the divine power of his inner Small Universe.
"As expected of the Universe Overlord, the backlash is indeed considerable."
Lu Qingshan was somewhat surprised. If he were just an ordinary Universe Master, he would probably be seriously injured by now. If he didn't give up immediately, he might even risk his death.
Resurrecting Universe Overlord is something that even Universe Master cannot do. Even the Three Ancestor Gods of the Ancestral God Religion could only barely revive by relying on the power of the Primal Universe's source. That was not their own power, and they rarely did this. Even if Divine General fell, it was enough to have a new Divine General replace him; there was no need to revive him.
Lu Qingshan is different.
He possesses an inner Small Universe that can continuously restore his divine body.
This backlash is still within our tolerance range.
"Return!"
Lu Qingshan spoke again, and his huge, blood-red hand suddenly pulled.
Time Acceleration abruptly, and the figure in the river of time was forcibly pulled out!
Rumble!!
Time-Space trembled, and everything lost its color.
Xi Luo Duo appeared in the manor.
His eyes were filled with confusion as he looked around, seemingly still not having grasped the situation. "I... wasn't I already dead at the hands of Venerable Tianhua in the Cosmic Secret Realm?"
His last memory was of that Cosmic Secret Realm, where he obtained a rare treasure comparable to a Supreme Treasure. Unexpectedly, he ran into Venerable Tianhua of the Demon Race. He had already planned to back down, but Venerable Tianhua had no intention of letting him go. Under Venerable Tianhua's pursuit, he perished!
How is the Golden Horn Race doing now?
"Have I been resurrected?"
Xi Luo Duo's consciousness began to slowly return.
Just then, a surprised voice rang out.
Xi Luo Duo!
" Purple Rain?"
Xi Luo Duo turned his head and saw two figures. One of them was his best friend from the Ancestral God Religion. He didn't recognize the other, but the terrifying aura emanating from him terrified him.
"This is the great Demon Master Xue You, the Guardian Divine Lord of the Ancestral God Religion, and also my teacher! It was my teacher who resurrected you!" Purple Rain Venerable hurriedly reminded him, fearing that Xi Luo Duo might offend his teacher.
" Demon Master Xue You..." Xi Luo Duo looked at the terrifying figure, immediately knelt down, and respectfully bowed.
" Xi Luo Duo pays homage to the great Demon Master Xue You! Thank you, great Demon Master Xue You, for resurrecting me."
"Get up."
Lu Qingshan looked at Xi Luo Duo and spoke calmly.
"I will resurrect you, and you will be under my command, but I have a better offer."
"Great Demon Master Xue You, what is your proposal?"
Xi Luo Duo asked respectfully.
Would you be willing to become my disciple?
"What!"
Xi Luo Duo thought he had misheard. This powerful Demon Master Xue You, the Guardian Divine Lord of the Ancestral God Religion, actually wanted to take him as a disciple?
"Teacher..."
Purple Rain Venerable was also stunned; he hadn't expected his teacher to make such a request. "Your Golden Horn Race, although a vassal of humanity, is neutral under the Ancestral God Religion Sect. You were once a successor of the Ancestral God Religion, so no one will object to you becoming my disciple."
Lu Qingshan continued.
"Of course, the choice is yours. If you don't want to, I won't force you."
" Xi Luo Duo, my teacher can resurrect you. Do you know what that means? Such an opportunity is rare, perhaps even after countless eons. You must not miss it!"
Purple Rain Venerable immediately transmitted his voice.
"Yes! I do!"
In fact, even without Purple Rain Venerable's reminder, Xi Luo Duo knew how to make the choice.
His Golden Horn Race lacked a powerful backer even in the Primal Universe.
He had no reason to refuse the opportunity to become the disciple of a powerful being, especially since... this powerful being had just resurrected him.
His life was given to him by the other party; what reason did he have to refuse?
" Xi Luo Duo, your disciple, greets his teacher!"
Xi Luo Duo knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully. "Good."
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly.
"From this day forward, you are a disciple of my Xue You Lineage, Purple Rain is your senior brother."
"Disciple understands!"
Xi Luo Duo.
"You've just been resurrected, and there are still many things you need to understand and handle. Go and do your own thing first, and come see me on my Xue You Continent when you're done."
After saying this, Lu Qingshan turned around and disappeared into the colorful passage again.
Purple Rain Venerable stayed behind and explained everything that had just happened to Xi Luo Duo.
Inside the palace on Bauhinia Island, the Bauhinia Island Master stared in disbelief in the direction of the Xi Luo Duo Manor, utterly shocked.
He originally thought that this matter would cause the Demon Master Xue You to suffer a loss, but he did not expect that the other party would succeed.
And it seemed to have been accomplished effortlessly, even taking Xi Luo Duo as his disciple in the process. "Could it be that the Demon Master Xue You has already broken through to become the Universe Supreme Master?"
The Universe Master couldn't possibly do this, but it would be easily explained if it were the Universe Supreme Master.
But...
The Bauhinia Island Master also knew that the Demon Master Xue You probably hadn't broken through to this realm.
How did he do it?
Absolutely nobody knows!
The Ancestral God Palace, the palace of the Two-Faced Ancestral God.
The two Ancestral God also turned their gazes toward Bauhinia Island; what was happening here could not be hidden from their eyes.
"Resurrecting Universe Overlord has a tremendous backlash, reaching the limit of the Level 6. Even you and I would have to pay a considerable price. Xue You... he can actually withstand it?"
The Old Ancestral God was shocked, and disbelief flashed in his eyes.
"It seems my disciple has had quite a fortunate turn of events."
Old Ancestral God smiled with satisfaction. "To withstand the backlash from resurrecting Universe Overlord is indeed impressive; there must have been some special encounter."
The Two-Faced Ancestral God nodded.
"It seems that we can entrust more of the affairs of our Ancestral God Religion to Xue You in the future."
That won't do.
The Old Ancestral God shook his head repeatedly.
"Don't disturb my disciple's cultivation. It's alright if we're a little tired, we're not going out anyway. Xue You still has to go to the Universe Ocean, we can't keep expending our divine bodies."
"I was just saying, don't defend your own."
The Two-Faced Ancestral God shook his head helplessly.
"I'm not being overly protective of my own."
The Old Ancestral God chuckled.
"It's just that my disciple is too talented; he should focus his energy on cultivation."
"As you wish." The Two-Faced Ancestral God said no more, a thoughtful expression appearing in his holy eyes.
