The Primal Universe, the Human Territory, the Black Ape Universe Country.
As the Human Race grew stronger, and with the assistance of the Duan Donghe Inheritance, the strength of the Human Race increased rapidly over this hundred million epoch.
The number of Universe Venerable has increased from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands, which is now comparable to the number of Universe Venerable in the largest alliance in the universe, the Northern Territory Alliance.
However, the number of Universe Country has not increased much, remaining at over four thousand.
The Universe Country Lord are mostly veteran Universe Venerable of the Human Race. After all, when the Human Race was waging wars of expansion, there were only a few thousand Universe Venerable in the Human Race.
The Black Ape Venerable is an absolute Universe Venerable, on par with the Ganwu Country Lord, and is also the leader of the Ape-man Race and the teacher of the Venerable Zhen Yan.
At this moment, inside a luxurious palace.
The newly enlightened Venerable Zhen Yan is currently indulging in unrestrained eating and drinking.
The table, once filled with countless delicious foods and fine wines, is now a complete mess.
After wolfing down his food for a long time, Venerable Zhen Yan finally said, "Teacher, you're really living the life of Universe Country Lord. You must have amassed quite a fortune. Our Ape-man Race is much wealthier now."
"You have the nerve to say that." The Black Ape Venerable snorted, outwardly displeased, but inwardly full of admiration as he looked at his disciple. He said, "You are clearly the strongest in our Ape-man Race, yet you're a complete shirker, not even bothering to share the burden. But you're quite lucky, kid, to have actually reached the level of Universe Master. You do have some talent..."
"Teacher... I only have some talent?" Venerable Zhen Yan said unhappily, "Tens of millions of epochs ago, I had already cultivated the Earth-Space Fusion Law to the peak of the Seventh Layer. If it weren't for creating that secret technique, I could have broken through to the Universe Master long ago. Now, although I broke through a little later, I'm already a powerful being among the Universe Master. You know the Lord of Ice Peak, right...? Back then, the Lord of Ice Peak was only as strong as I am now. As for the Yan Emperor of the Nine Domains Alliance, if I wanted to beat him up, he wouldn't have a chance." "You're the disciple of the Lord of Myriad Laws, how dare you compare yourself to the Yan Emperor?"
The Black Ape Venerable gave him a disdainful look and said, "If Yan Emperor had such good cultivation conditions as you, and if he had the Duan Donghe Inheritance, he could slap you to death."
"Teacher, Yan Emperor is a traitor to our Human Race. You're boosting the morale of others while diminishing our own. What's wrong with Yan Emperor? He's just a coward who doesn't even dare to go to the Jin World. If he went to the Jin World to adventure, his strength would definitely increase a lot. How could he be surpassed by your disciple?"
Venerable Zhen Yan drank the entire pot of fine wine in one gulp.
"It's a bit weak. I have some good wine here, Master, please try it."
Venerable Zhen Yan took out a large pot of fine wine from his storage arm guard and poured a large bowl for Black Ape Venerable.
The Black Ape Venerable picked up the wine bowl, took a sip, narrowed his eyes slightly, and revealed a savoring expression.
"Great, where did you get it?"
"These were brewed by my junior sister herself, and they're not for sale, so please don't even think about them, Master. However, I can give you these as a gift."
Just this one pot?
"It's only two or three pots; the teacher should leave some for his disciples."
"Bring them all." After a moment, Venerable Zhen Yan, as if in pain, brought out the remaining jugs of fine wine.
Seeing his disciple's frustrated expression, Black Ape Venerable grinned. "You brat, you have filial piety, but not much. You're so stingy with a little wine. If it weren't for my discerning eye back then, knowing that the Lord of Myriad Laws had limitless potential and making you agree to become his disciple, how would you have achieved what you have today? You're still dawdling over a little wine."
"Yes, yes, yes, the teacher is right." Venerable Zhen Yan dared not refute, because he knew it was the truth. If it hadn't been for Black Ape Venerable's deafening words, he probably wouldn't have been able to get over that hurdle in his heart and would have missed that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
His current status as the Universe Master and his apprenticeship Lord of Myriad Laws can be attributed to this reason, which accounts for 99% of the reason.
"Teacher, keep this wine and drink it slowly. When you've finished it, tell me, and I'll go and ask for some more for you."
Zhen Yan the Dao.
The Black Ape Venerable revealed a satisfied expression, about to say something, when he suddenly noticed a slight change in the Venerable Zhen Yan's expression.
"What's wrong?"
He asked.
"The Lord of Myriad Laws sent me an email, summoning me."
"Venerable Zhen Yan said."
The Black Ape Venerable was somewhat surprised: "It seems the Lord of Myriad Laws still cares about you quite a bit. You just broke through, and before you even reported it to the Human Race, he already knew." "Master hasn't summoned us disciples all these years. I thought he'd forgotten us, but it seems I was overthinking it. Master has always been watching over us disciples." The Venerable Zhen Yan was somewhat moved. He stood up and said, "This disciple must go and pay respects to Master."
"Go on, business is more important. We, master and disciple, can meet again anytime."
The Black Ape Venerable waved his hand, urging Zhen Yan to leave quickly.
The Master of Zhen Yan laughed heartily, turned and walked out of the main hall, then directly Divine Kingdom Teleportation into the void.
Soon, he arrived in the Divine Kingdom of his teacher, Lu Qingshan.
The Divine Kingdom did not reject him; he entered it with ease.
World Tree, Lu Qingshan was focused on refining a weapon. Seeing this, Venerable Zhen Yan did not disturb him and waited respectfully to the side.
While waiting, I also observed the teacher's actions.
On the forging table, a rod-shaped weapon embryo was slowly taking shape, its surface gleaming with Golden Light, its material unknown.
After the embryo was completed, Venerable Zhen Yan saw his teacher imprinting various Law Secret Patterns Diagram into it. Some of these runes he could understand, while others were completely incomprehensible. As these Law Secret Patterns Diagram were imprinted, the aura emitted by the stick-shaped weapon became increasingly intense.
Venerable Zhen Yan showed a hint of surprise.
The weapon the teacher forged this time is extraordinary. "Could it be..."
Venerable Zhen Yan had a guess in his mind. Among his teacher's many disciples, besides himself, it seemed that only Silver Eyes used a staff. Silver Eyes had already broken through to the Universe Master before him, and his teacher had given him some rewards. Now his teacher had summoned him...
Venerable Zhen Yan guessed that this stick was probably intended to be given to him by his teacher.
He secretly hoped for something.
As the last secret rune was imprinted into it, a dazzling golden light burst forth, before slowly receding.
A staff about the thickness of a bowl, with a dull gold color in the middle and dazzling golden hoops on both sides, floated in the void.
Lu Qingshan stared at the weapon for a moment before turning to look at Zhen Yan.
"You've come."
"I just arrived and saw that Master was refining a weapon, so I didn't dare to disturb him."
In fact, Venerable Zhen Yan has been here for several years, but given his strength, there is no difference between several years and just arriving.
As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily fell on the long golden staff, his eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation.
Lu Qingshan then casually tossed the golden staff, which flew steadily toward Venerable Zhen Yan. "Here you go, a gift to congratulate you on breaking through to the Universe Master."
Thank you, teacher!
Venerable Zhen Yan smiled excitedly; this was exactly as he had guessed. His teacher had indeed forged a weapon for him.
I wonder what level of weapon this is.
He reached out and caught the golden staff. The moment he held it, he felt a weight on his arm, which invigorated him.
He's the Universe Master, yet he felt a heaviness in it. What on earth was this thing made of?
Venerable Zhen Yan quickly imprinted his Life Imprint on it, thus recognizing the long staff as his own.
A message appeared in his mind.
Venerable Zhen Yan was taken aback.
" The Ruyi Jingu Bang?"
When he uttered the name, a strange expression flashed across Venerable Zhen Yan's face.
Although he had never been to Earth, he knew the name. His junior brother Luo Feng, as their teacher's most outstanding disciple, had a good relationship with him. Venerable Zhen Yan had naturally paid attention to Earth's civilization and had read some of Earth's ancient texts. This Ruyi Jingu Bang ) was the name of the weapon used by the protagonist in a mythological novel on Earth.
However, that weapon was too weak, weighing only a little over 10,000 jin (approximately 5,000 kg), less than a single hair on his body. While his opponent could travel 108,000 li (approximately 54,000 kilometers) in a single somersault, he could teleport away in an Teleportation, enough to make his opponent do somersaults for a lifetime.
"It seems the teacher has some knowledge of Earth's cultures."
Venerable Zhen Yan thought to himself as he continued reading the information, his expression instantly turning serious.
He stared incredulously at the stick in his hand, then at his teacher, and finally opened his mouth to say, "Teacher, is this the Supreme Supreme Treasure?"
"What, you're only realizing it now?"
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly.
"Disciple... disciple thought it was Peak Supreme Treasure." Venerable Zhen Yan stammered. He never expected that the gift his teacher gave him was not Peak Supreme Treasure Weapon, but Supreme Supreme Treasure. Most importantly, this Supreme Supreme Treasure was personally crafted by his teacher.
The teacher's weapon-forging skills are also terrifying.
Venerable Zhen Yan knew that his teacher had some interest in weapon crafting and had even taken on a weapon crafting Apprentice as a disciple. He never expected that his teacher's weapon crafting skills had reached such an exaggerated level.
You probably couldn't find another one like it in the entire Primal Universe.
What Master of Craftsman God? In front of the teacher, he's nothing but a junior disciple. "Teacher... this gift is far too precious."
Venerable Zhen Yan was somewhat flattered.
Supreme Supreme Treasure.
Back then, the entire Human Race didn't possess a single Supreme Supreme Treasure, yet his teacher bestowed one upon him the moment he broke through to the Universe Master.
"Take this. You've broken through to the Universe Master and even created the Strongest Secret Technique for Universe Master. It wouldn't be right if you didn't have a suitable weapon. This weapon was specially forged for you. It's well-suited to your attributes. Take it and refine it properly; you should be able to unleash most of its power."
Lu Qingshan spoke calmly, but his tone left no room for argument.
Venerable Zhen Yan dared not refuse any longer, and quickly said, "Thank you for your kindness, Master. With this weapon, I feel like I could even challenge the Universe Supreme Master."
"It's not that simple. Treasures are meant to enhance your strength, not to kill you. Before the arrival of the Jin World, perhaps you could fight against the weakest of the Universe Supreme Master by relying on the Supreme Supreme Treasure and the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique. Now, many of the Universe Supreme Master have joined the army in the Jin World, learned the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, and improved in other aspects as well."
Lu Qingshan shook his head slightly.
"Haha, I was just saying that casually. If I saw the Universe Supreme Master, I would turn around and run away." Zhen Yan chuckled.
"You are the Universe Master. No Universe Supreme Master will dare to provoke you. Go, make good use of this weapon. Your future is not just about being the Universe Master."
Upon hearing this, Venerable Zhen Yan felt a surge of confidence. His teacher was the strongest being in the Universe Ocean; his judgment was naturally excellent. Could it be that his teacher saw the potential in him to become True God?
"Master, I plan to go on an adventure in the Jin World after I have fully replenished my divine body."
Venerable Zhen Yan put away his Jingu Bang and said in conclusion.
"Well, it's your choice. Before you go to the Jin World, tell Luo Feng," Lu Qingshan reminded him.
"This disciple understands. This disciple takes his leave."
Venerable Zhen Yan bowed respectfully, then left with his gifts, completely satisfied.
