The Virtual Universe Company Headquarters located in Lu Qingshan Manor on the mainland.

After leaving the Divine Kingdom, Lu Qingshan came here and went into seclusion for a hundred epochs. He has not summoned his disciples for a long time.

These years.

The disciples have all changed a lot. For example, Lei Ming, Parisi, Bulu, Nan Hui, and Feng Lang have all broken through to the Invincible King level.

As Lu Qingshan's disciple, once one reaches the King Level, becoming invincible is inevitable.

Whether it's True Treasure, Gene Multiplier, or an inheritance of amplitude, Lu Qingshan doesn't need to say a word; their identities can be easily obtained.

The Demon Race, the Zerg, and the Machine Race retreated, and the Outer Domain Battlefield was almost abandoned. In recent years, they have been venturing into the less dangerous Cosmic Secret Realm.

Lu Qingshan sent emails to his disciples, summoning them one by one.

Half a day later, a figure with a single horn on its head flew over from a distance and landed outside the manor.

The newcomer had a handsome face, a hard horn on his head that seemed to be surrounded by lightning, and a calm demeanor. He had long since shed his former naivety.

This is Lei Ming, Lu Qingshan's eldest disciple.

Over a hundred epochs ago, Lu Qingshan was only at the Universe Level 9 Realm, nearing the end of his life. When his life was about to end, Lu San brought Lei Ming to him. Lei Ming's potential was recognized by the system, and Lu Qingshan was thus reborn. It can be said that among his many disciples, he had the deepest affection for Lei Ming. When they left Maple Leaf Star and went to the Ganwu Mystic Region, Lu Qingshan took this disciple with him all the way.

"Teacher."

Lei Ming entered the manor, arrived at the pavilion under the waterfall, and respectfully bowed.

Lei Ming was very excited to see his teacher after not seeing him for a long time.

He was unclear about his significance to his teacher, but he knew that his teacher had changed his destiny and that without his teacher, he would not have achieved what he has today.

"Get up."

Lu Qingshan personally helped his disciple up, his gaze sweeping over him with a slight smile.

"It's been so many years, you've become Invincible King..."

"I am ashamed."

Lei Ming looked slightly embarrassed.

As his teacher's eldest disciple, he has gained unimaginable benefits, yet he is only at the King-level Immortal, while his teacher's later disciples, Ling Yu and Luo Feng, are already great beings in the Human Race.

Without comparison, it's nothing; but once compared, his achievements are utterly insignificant. "Heh, with your past potential, if you hadn't possessed Special Lifeform, you wouldn't even be able to become Immortal Army Lord, let alone what you are now. Reaching this point is already quite remarkable... Universe Venerable... there's still some hope."

Lu Qingshan patted Lei Ming on the shoulder, giving his disciple some confidence.

"Teacher, I will certainly strive to comprehend the Time Law and become Universe Venerable!"

Lei Ming gritted his teeth and said.

"I don't need you to do anything. There's no need to rush. Although you've possessed Special Lifeform, becoming Universe Venerable is not an easy task. The more anxious you are, the less likely you are to break through..."

Lu Qingshan smiled, waved his hand, and a pot of fine wine appeared on the table.

He asked Lei Ming to sit down before continuing.

"How much have you grasped about the Time Law?"

"This disciple has mastered Time Stop and Time Acceleration; all that's missing is Time Deceleration..."

Lei Ming replied.

" Time Deceleration... hehe..." Lu Qingshan chuckled.

Lei Ming was curious, wondering what his teacher was laughing about. "Back then, I also first mastered Time Acceleration and Time Stop, and all I lacked was Time Deceleration. You are my disciple, and the path you've taken is quite similar to mine." After saying that, Lu Qingshan raised his hand, and a precious orb flashing with purple Thunderlight appeared in his palm.

"This is the Thunder Spirit Pearl, which can enhance your talents in the laws of Law of Lightning and Time Law. After consuming it, your talents will likely improve significantly, making it easier to comprehend the Time Law."

"Teacher... this..." Lei Ming looked at the bead flashing with purple Thunderlight and felt a desire rising in his body.

He was no longer the naive young man who knew nothing; he understood just how precious this treasure was.

His access permissions are completely insufficient to access the information.

That would certainly be beyond imagination.

"Take this. Not only for you, but I also prepared one for Parisi. You are my first disciple. If you are trapped by the Universe Venerable, wouldn't that make people doubt my judgment?"

With a wave of his hand, Lu Qingshan sent the precious pearl flying to Lei Ming.

Lei Ming took a deep breath, did not refuse, and carefully put away the Thunder Spirit Pearl.

[You bestowed the Lei Ming Thunder Spirit Pearl upon your disciple, receiving a thousandfold return; you have obtained the Heart of Thunder.]

Lu Qingshan glanced at the Golden Finger Space, where a purple lightning bolt flickered, resembling an exquisitely crafted lightning heart.

Lu Qingshan glanced at his disciple again. This item was of little use to him, and it was too advanced for Lei Ming at the moment. It was already Peak Supreme Treasure- tier treasure. It wasn't about whether it would grant a cashback reward or not; the main issue was that even with his assistance, Lei Ming would waste most of it if he used it now, so it wasn't necessary.

The Thunder Spirit Pearl was already his limit...

However, Lu Qingshan planned to keep this for Lei Ming. Once Lei Ming broke through to the Universe Venerable level, he would bestow this Heart of Thunder upon him and guide him onto the Path of the Beast God. In the future, he might be able to break through to the level of the Universe Master.

" Lei Ming... Don't take this Thunder Spirit Pearl out of the Headquarters Continent. Just find a place here to use it. Also, I will upgrade your privileges so you can access some of the information about the Universe Venerable in the Duan Donghe Inheritance... This will be of great help to your cultivation."

Upon hearing this, Lei Ming was overjoyed and quickly said, "This disciple thanks you, Master."

The Duan Donghe Inheritance!

As Invincible King among the Human Race, Lei Ming naturally knew what that was.

That was an extremely precious ancient inheritance, which his junior brother Luo Feng obtained from a dangerous place in the Universe Ocean. However, this inheritance was too advanced, and those below the level of Universe Venerable were not allowed to directly access it. They could only access a small portion that had been analyzed and transmitted by powerful individuals.

Only by reaching the strength of Universe Venerable can one access the portion of Duan Donghe Inheritance's Universe Venerable... This was one of the reasons why he had previously longed to break through to the Universe Venerable.

In recent years, the Universe Venerable of the Human Race have increased their strength countless times by relying on parts of the Duan Donghe Inheritance. Except for those who have just broken through, almost all of them are at the High Venerable level, and the number of Universe Overlord is many times greater than before.

The teacher granted him access, allowing him to view portions of the Duan Donghe Inheritance like Universe Venerable, select suitable secret techniques for cultivation, and significantly increase his chances of breaking through to the Universe Venerable level.

With the treasures bestowed by his teacher, becoming Universe Venerable might not be such a pipe dream after all. Over the next few days, Lu Qingshan personally guided his disciple Lei Ming in his cultivation, resolving the doubts that had accumulated in him for many years.

Several days later, another disciple of the teacher arrived, and Lei Ming reluctantly left.

After he left, Lu Qingshan met another disciple, Tie Shan.

Tie Shan was a genius at weapon crafting. Lu Qingshan took him as his disciple because he valued his talent and passion for weapon crafting.

Tie Shan did not disappoint him. He has made rapid progress over the years, almost catching up with his other teacher, which has brought Lu Qingshan a lot of generous returns.

Tie Shan also brought one of his own works with him on this trip.

He held a silver longsword in both hands, his eyes flashing with anticipation.

"Master, this is a Supreme Treasure weapon that I recently crafted. Please take a look."

"Give it to me."

Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

Tie Shan presented the long sword.

Lu Qingshan took the longsword and, with just a glance, could see the Supreme Treasure. He said, "Not bad. The material is uniform, and the inscription of the secret patterns is very smooth. It's a fine example among Ordinary Supreme Treasure. To be able to forge Supreme Treasure of this caliber at the Immortal stage, your talent is indeed better than I imagined." Hearing his teacher's praise, Tie Shan was extremely excited. Who was his teacher? Not to mention him, even a Universe Overlord would be thrilled to receive such praise from his teacher.

He said excitedly, "It's all thanks to my teacher's guidance. If it weren't for the inheritance bestowed upon me by my teacher, I would only be able to forge Ordinary Heavy Treasure now."

"No need to be modest. It's true that inheritance is important, but your efforts and talent are also crucial," Lu Qingshan said, returning the Supreme Treasure longsword.

"You're capable of forging Supreme Treasure; it seems you've already mastered most of the inheritance I gave you before." With that, he flipped his hand and took out a thick book, the cover of which read " The Qingshan Artifact Refining Manual."

Looking at the book, Lu Qingshan continued, "This is a summary of my own weapon-refining techniques, containing the methods for refining almost all types of treasures, from Ordinary Supreme Treasure to Top-tier Supreme Treasure. Take it back and study it carefully."

" From Ordinary Supreme Treasure to Top-tier Supreme Treasure..."

Tie Shan looked at the book in front of him, feeling a little dizzy.

This weapon-refining manual actually contains all the information about Top-tier Supreme Treasure?

It's important to understand that even the greatest weapon refiner in the entire universe, the Master of Craftsman God, can only refine Top-tier Supreme Treasure of special types.

This inheritance is too precious; if other weapon-refining masters knew about it, they would all be envious.

Tie Shan actually wanted to ask his teacher for some further inheritance, but he thought that reaching the level of advanced Supreme Treasure would be enough. After all, with his current strength, even at his limit, he could only learn to forge High-grade Supreme Treasure, which would require the assistance of a strong person. The materials for the later Supreme Treasure were beyond his ability to handle.

But the inheritance the teacher presented was completely complete, essentially the entire inheritance of the Craftsman God Star. "Teacher, I will certainly live up to your expectations."

Tie Shan trembled with excitement.

"I have confidence in you... but your strength is still somewhat lacking..."

Lu Qingshan thought for a moment, then spread his hands again, and two more items appeared in front of Tie Shan.

He pointed to the translucent fruit and said.

"I see you're not far from fully comprehending the Law of Space. Once you reach your bottleneck, consume this fruit; it will greatly aid your breakthrough."

Tie Shan took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on the fruit. He had been Lord of Myriad Laws for a hundred epochs. He had only received the basic weapon-refining inheritance from the Craftsman God Star before, and he was worried that his teacher would not be satisfied with him. But now, his teacher's gift made him feel apprehensive.

Lu Qingshan ignored his disciple's thoughts and then pointed to another gourd, saying:

"Within this gourd is a wisp of flame from a perilous place in the Universe Ocean. You can use it when refining weapons; it should be of some help. However, be careful when using it, as your divine body cannot withstand even the slightest bit of it."

"I understand, I will be careful."

Tie Shan turned his gaze to the black gourd, his eyes becoming even more eager.

As a weapon refiner, he preferred treasures that could aid in the refining process. "Put them all away, you may leave."

Lu Qingshan waved his hand.

Inside that black gourd, he placed a wisp of the most worthless flame he had collected from the Burning Flame Sea. However, even the most worthless flame could easily cause the fall of a Universe Overlord, which was why he had given a special reminder.

After Tie Shan left, Lu Qingshan summoned the other disciples.

Parisi, Bulu, Yi Yun, Nan Hui, Feng Lang, Lu San, Hong, Rong Jun... Zhen Yan, Lu Lingxiao... even Jieming and the other five came to meet him, and Lu Qingshan gave them some precious gifts.

Lu Qingshan also granted higher permissions to the disciples who needed the access to the Duan Donghe Inheritance.

Over the years, Lu Qingshan's disciples have all been quite good. Apart from Zhen Yan, who perished once during the Duan Donghe Inheritance, none of the other disciples have died.

The five of them, including Jieming, were the weakest, all at the Immortal Level Marquis level. Jieming was at the Peak Marquis, while the others were at the ordinary Marquis... This was basically the limit of their talent.

The treasures Lu Qingshan bestowed upon them this time were enough to elevate them to the level of Second-Class Genius. Perhaps the next time they met, they would already be at the King Level.

Lu Qingshan didn't abandon any of his disciples. However, Golden Sword was nowhere to be found; it seemed he hadn't received the email.
