Virtual Universe, the Mount of Gods plane.
The Giant Axe Founder, the Chaos City Lord, the Dark True God, the Peng Gong True God, Luo Feng, the Master of Ganwu... The expressions of the group varied, but their gazes were all fixed on Lu Qingshan, as if they were still processing the news they had just heard.
The Chaos City Lord shook his head and gave a wry smile, " Qingshan, every time you make a move, you make us old folks feel like we've wasted all these years of our lives."
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly and did not respond to the question.
Luo Feng then spoke up at the opportune moment, "I also have some authority in the Jin World. Although it's not as exaggerated as my teacher's control over the Universe Boat, if you encounter any life-threatening danger within the Jin World, you can contact me. I have some authority to mobilize the Jin World's origin power, which might be able to provide some protection."
These words caused a slight tremor in the hearts of the Universe Supreme Master present.
Although they hadn't personally ventured into the Jin World, they had a general idea of how dangerous it was through various intelligence reports.
True God roam that place, Void True God are not uncommon. There are even rumors that Eternal True God is in charge there.
If Luo Feng could mobilize the world's origin for protection, their safety upon entering the Jin World would be greatly enhanced.
The Lord of Myriad Laws had just recognized the Universe Boat as his master, which had already shocked them greatly. They never expected that the Galaxy Lord would bring such good news now.
This master and apprentice duo are just too outrageous!
"So, does that mean our Human Race can now roam freely across these two Desperate Land?" Peng Gong True God said with a smile, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
He's been the Universe Supreme Master for so long, yet he still doesn't have the Supreme Supreme Treasure!
Even after the emergence of the Jin World, the Human Race has always maintained a conservative strategy, so Peng Gong True God and Dark True God have not yet been to the Jin World.
Of course, although they had never been there, they had always paid close attention to news about the Jin World.
After all, that place is full of treasures, which every True God desires. The Rampaging Demon God went there and came out with his strength reaching the Level 10, becoming extremely arrogant! Apart from still showing some respect for the Human Race, he is almost Rampaging in his dealings with other forces!
"It's not like they'll be able to walk sideways. After all, the Lord of Myriad Laws and the Galaxy Lord aren't anyone else's babysitters; they can't be watching over you every second. But the probability of their demise is definitely much lower!" The Dark True God nodded as well. "If we really encounter a danger we can't handle, with the Lord of Myriad Laws and the Galaxy Lord as our safety net, it's worth taking the risk."
The True God exchanged glances, each seeing a hint of attraction in the other's eyes.
They hadn't ventured into the Jin World before because they were afraid of perishing there. After all, the probability of dying in the Jin World was too high; several of the Universe Supreme Master Universe Ocean already fallen.
Now that they had the intelligence, the map, and Luo Feng's protection, they were naturally very excited and all had the idea of going to Jin World to explore.
The Master of Ganwu sat to one side, holding a glass of fine wine in his hand, his expression somewhat conflicted.
Having just been rescued from the Lava Demon God by Lu Qingshan, he naturally had a thought when he heard Luo Feng say that similar authority existed in the Jin World.
But remembering the despair he felt while being chased, he hesitated. "I'll wait a bit longer," the Master of Ganwu finally shook his head. "Send the others to scout ahead and figure out the situation before I consider whether to go in."
The Chaos City Lord glanced at him and chuckled, " Ganwu, you're interested too?"
The Master of Ganwu gave an awkward smile, "I think I'll pass. I'd rather live a few more years."
Everyone smiled.
Clearly, they all knew about the deeds of the Master of Ganwu during his time as the Universe Venerable.
It's better to be safe. The Universe Venerable could be resurrected before, but now that he's become the Master of Ganwu, he's no longer qualified to be resurrected!
After they dispersed, Lu Qingshan also withdrew his consciousness and returned to the Inheritance Palace at the core of the Universe Boat.
The Boat Spirit remained quietly standing to the side. Seeing him open his eyes, it asked, "Master, what are your plans for disposing of this Universe Boat?"
Lu Qingshan did not answer immediately, but first carefully sensed the current state of the Universe Boat.
After recognizing him as its master, he could clearly perceive every corner of this super battleship.
" The Universe Boat is severely damaged. Although the main structure is still relatively intact, many functional areas are paralyzed. How can I repair it?"
Lu Qingshan asked. Boat Spirit nodded slightly. "The repair mechanism of the Universe Boat is connected to its power system. As long as there is enough energy, it can repair itself. It can absorb Chaos energy and Small Universe to replenish its energy and use this energy to automatically repair the hull. However, in an unmanned state, this repair process is extremely slow and can almost be ignored."
"What if we activate the active repair function?" Lu Qingshan pressed.
"Now that the master has recognized the core of the Universe Boat, it can naturally activate its active repair mode," the Boat Spirit explained. "At that time, the Universe Boat's absorption speed of Chaos energy will increase to more than ten thousand times its original speed. However, the best way to see results in a short time is to devour Miniature Universe. Those broken Small Universe left behind after the fall of True God contain enormous energy and some remnants of the world's origin, making them the most high-quality energy source for the Universe Boat!"
Lu Qingshan nodded, his consciousness sinking into the core controller, where he found the startup node marked as the automatic repair function.
He activated the proactive repair feature.
Almost simultaneously, a very deep tremor came from the depths of the entire Universe Boat, as if a giant beast that had been sleeping for countless epochs had finally turned over.
The faint tremor spread outwards along the hull and quickly reached the outside of the Universe Boat.
In the Outer Domain the Universe Boat, in a seemingly peaceful void.
Several Universe Master from the East Emperor Holy Land were resting on a piece of ship debris. This was their East Emperor Holy Land's base in the Outer Domain of the Universe Boat.
Suddenly, these Universe Master felt the fragments beneath their feet tremble slightly. They looked up and saw that the Chaos currents on the surface of the Universe Boat, which had been flowing slowly, began to accelerate and rotate, forming energy vortexes, as if being pulled by a tremendous force.
"What's going on?" a Universe Master asked in surprise.
"The flow of Chaos energy has accelerated, as if it's being sucked in by something..." Another person's gaze sharpened. "Look over there." Everyone followed his gaze and saw that at the edge of the Universe Boat, fragments of a broken Small Universe that had been stuck for countless epochs were now approaching the Universe Boat at a visible speed, as if being pulled by some force, slowly sinking into the cracks on the surface of the Universe Boat.
" The Universe Boat is devouring those fragments of Small Universe? And it's going so fast!" a Universe Master exclaimed in shock.
"The speed is indeed much faster, more than ten thousand times faster than before. The Chaos air currents have also been attracted by the Universe Boat... I've been here for three Reincarnation Era and have never seen anything like it."
"This news is very important; it must be reported to the Progenitor."
"That's right, something must have changed in the Universe Boat. The Progenitor might know what happened!"
The news quickly spread throughout the Universe Ocean.
Those powerful individuals adventuring in the inner and Outer Domain Inner Domain of Universe Boat all noticed this change.
The flow of Chaos energy is becoming increasingly violent, and the fragments of those broken Small Universe are being devoured by the Universe Boat at an ever-increasing speed. At the current rate, those Small Universe that might have taken countless epochs to be fully absorbed will probably disappear completely within a thousand years.
Immediately, various speculations circulated within the Universe Boat.
Some say the Universe Boat underwent some change due to the impact of the Jin World; others say it's the remnant consciousness of Ancient Civilization awakening; still others suspect that some force has gained the method to control the Universe Boat. But no one can confirm the truth.
Only a few True God among the Human Race could probably guess the reason behind it.
They knew that Lu Qingshan had recognized the Universe Boat as his master, so the changes in the Universe Boat were naturally related to Lu Qingshan. However, whether it was Lu Qingshan controlling the Universe Boat or the Galaxy Lord being able to mobilize the world origin of the Jin World, these were the highest secrets of the Human Race, known only to a few Giant Axe, Chaos... and other True God.
Inheritance Palace of the Universe Boat, Lu Qingshan paid little attention to the reactions from the outside world. After activating the Universe Boat's self-repair function, he turned and walked towards the Cultivation Space located behind the Inheritance Palace.
This Cultivation Space is the best Cultivation Space in the Universe Boat, capable of accelerating the flow of time by up to a million times.
Once this door is opened, the ratio of time flow inside to that outside reaches one in a million.
A million years of cultivation here is equivalent to only one year in the outside world.
For someone like Lu Qingshan, who possesses a vast amount of inherited knowledge to digest, this is an extremely luxurious cultivation environment.
It should be noted that the Cultivation Space Cultivation Space of Duan Donghe Gou Wu Hall can only accelerate up to 100,000 times at most.
He stepped inside, and the stone door slowly closed behind him.
He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and let his consciousness sink into the sea of memories composed of 1.08 billion secret techniques, beginning to turn the pages one by one.
The secret techniques left behind by the Wu Kingdom are all-encompassing, covering aspects such as attack and defense, formation and weapon crafting, Bloodline Evolution, and soul tempering.
Although each secret technique is not as core as " Nine Stars ", " Ten Thousand Shadows ", or " Body Burial ", most of them are exquisite works that have been repeatedly refined by countless generations of inheritors. There is no truly worthless stuff that can enter the Wu Kingdom Inheritance treasury.
He flipped through the books one by one, memorizing each page. Those secret techniques, like drops of water, gradually gathered together, eventually coalescing into a vast ocean within his consciousness.
Time loses its meaning in this space.
Millions of years, tens of millions of years, hundreds of millions of years...
Lu Qingshan sat motionless beneath that empty starry sky.
Billions of years have passed quietly like this.
After he had finally browsed through all the contents below the Void True God in those 1.08 billion secret techniques, Lu Qingshan slowly opened his eyes.
His aura did not become stronger; it remained even calmer than before he entered the Cultivation Space.
His eyes held a composure and peace that only comes with the passage of time, as if his whole being exuded a faint scholarly air.
He stood up, pushed open the stone door, and went out.
The starry sky outside the door was still dazzling. Boat Spirit stood there quietly, and when she saw him come out, she nodded slightly. "Master looks... a little different."
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly, "Just read some books."
