Swallowing the Stars: Ten Thousand Times Return for Taking on Disciples

Chapter 228 Fishing, Slaying the Immortal

Jiuxiang Hall is a restaurant located next to Puya Palace.

The fact that they could open a shop in Hongmeng's restaurant meant that the taste was naturally exceptional. Xinglun Wang ordered a private room and a table full of dishes.

"Congratulations, Star Wheel King."

Lu Qingshan congratulated him with a smile.

Originally, since Star Wheel King had taken him around Hongmeng City and acted as his tour guide, Lu Qingshan should have been the one to treat him. However, Star Wheel King had just won a big prize and earned 100 million Hunyuan units, so Lu Qingshan went along with the other party's wishes.

As for this favor, I can repay it later. There's plenty of time, no need to rush...

“King of Ten Thousand Laws, I’ve tried this once-in-a-million chance a few times before, but the odds were too slim. This time, I won because I came out with you. Logically, I should be thanking you.”

King Star Wheel was very pleased.

"You can't say that. If I were really lucky, I would have won the lottery myself." Lu Qingshan took out his ticket number, 888. It was auspicious, but it wouldn't matter if he didn't win.

He crumpled the banknote into a ball and threw it into the trash can.

Then he took out a bottle of Purple Fire Ape Wine.

This thing is very precious in reality, but its price is acceptable in the virtual universe. Lu Qingshan has prepared quite a lot of it.

"Purple Fire Ape Wine!"

Seeing the fine wine that Lu Qingshan took out, Star Wheel King was very surprised. He smiled and said, "King of Ten Thousand Laws, you must have an extraordinary status in the human race to be able to afford such fine wine."

"It's so-so. I couldn't afford this in real life."

Lu Qingshan poured a cup for Xinglun Wang, and the two ate and chatted.

"Let alone in reality, I can't afford to drink it even in the virtual universe. I'm only doing this because of you."

Star Wheel King took a sip of the fine wine, his eyes slightly narrowed. Needless to say, the taste of the Purple Fire Ape Wine remained unchanged even in the virtual universe, only lacking its special effects.

“King of Ten Thousand Laws, you must be wondering why I pulled you away just now.”

"Star Wheel King said with a smile."

"Does that mean you're a low-key powerhouse?"

Lu Qingshan replied.

“No!” King Xinglun shook his head and explained, “King-level experts have lived for countless years. Apart from their powerful strength, there is not much else for them to pursue. If they can show off, who wouldn’t want to… Don’t laugh at me, but the main reason I kept it a secret is that I wanted to save some money.”

"If I had just stood up and said I had won the lottery, many people would have envied me, but they would have also been clamoring for me to treat them all. If I had to treat all of them, my prize money would probably have been reduced by half. Our Void Light Clan is just a small race, and I have a very important thing to do that requires a lot of money, so I'm trying to save money wherever I can."

"I see."

Lu Qingshan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's only natural, there's nothing to laugh about. Besides, didn't you specifically invite me? I should be even happier."

Lu Qingshan looked up the Void Light Clan and found that it was a small race within the Hong Alliance. The strongest member of the clan was only a Universe Venerable, and there were no more than ten King-level experts. Even within the Hong Alliance, such a race was extremely weak.

Lu Qingshan glanced at the Star Wheel King opposite him. This guy's strength was probably among the top five in his own clan.

The food at Jiuxiang Palace was quite good. Although it couldn't compare to the delicacies Lingxi made herself, it was still a whole level above Baiweilou.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the two left the private room.

"Your Highness Qingshan?"

A slightly surprised voice came from behind him. Lu Qingshan turned his head and saw a powerful figure who was drinking alone in the hall looking in his direction.

The opponent was about two meters tall, with a face like rotten wood. He was a powerful member of the Banyan Tree Clan whom Lu Qingshan had seen before.

"you are?"

Lu Qingshan asked.

The old man walked over, utterly astonished: "I thought I had mistaken him for someone else. I never expected it to really be His Highness Lu Qingshan, my Rongku King. When His Highness came to our Rongmu Clan, the Qingmu who was in charge of receiving him was my subordinate."

"I have met King Banyan."

Lu Qingshan greeted him.

"Why has Your Highness come to the Hong Alliance?"

King Rongku was very surprised. He did not expect that Prince Qingshan, who had visited their Rongmu tribe not long ago, would come to Hongmeng.
However, he didn't believe Lu Qingshan possessed the strength to be a king. After all, not everyone in the Hong Alliance was a king or higher. For example, the servants of the Nine Fragrance Palace and many shop workers weren't kings, but they still needed extremely high backgrounds to work in the Hong Alliance. Being able to work in the Hong Alliance was a very precious opportunity for the alien races within the Human Alliance.

As a genius from the original secret realm of the human race, it was not difficult for Lu Qingshan to obtain such an opportunity.

"I came out for a walk..."

Just as Lu Qingshan was about to speak, Xinglun Wang, who had finished paying the bill, walked over and said, "Wanfa Wang, let me take you to Yubaotang next. It's the largest shop in Hongmeng."

Lu Qingshan nodded, gave Rongku Wang an apologetic look, and said, "Rongku Wang, we'll be leaving now. We'll contact you again when we have time."

“Good, good…” King Rongku was stunned for a moment, and said “good” twice, but his heart was filled with shock.

"The King of All Dharmas?"

"That human genius who only recently went to their Rongmu clan has already been made a king, joined the Hong Alliance, and received a title? This... this is unbelievable!"

The sacred city of the Banyan Tree tribe.

After meeting Lu Qingshan at the Hongmeng, Rongku Wang arrived outside the Elders' Hall in reality.

"I have met the senior elders who have worked hard."

"Rongku, why did you come to me in such a hurry? Is something wrong?"

The one speaking was the Venerable Kuxin, who had taken Lu Qingshan to visit the sacred stele.

"Elder," King Rongku took a deep breath before speaking, "Do you remember the human genius who visited our Rongmu Clan last time? I just saw him at the Hong Alliance. He was referred to as the King of Ten Thousand Laws by a fellow alien king who accompanied him..."

"Huh? It hasn't been that long... and he's already broken through to the Immortal Realm?"

Even the most dedicated elders were astonished.

"I don't know... Within the Hong Alliance, physical abilities are limited to the apprentice stage. Even if a Universe Venerable is in front of them, they cannot discern the other party's realm."

King Rongku shook his head and said.

"Regardless, joining the Hong Alliance means having the strength to become a king. This Prince Qingshan is progressing too fast. He has a great chance to become a top human expert in the future. Our Rongmu Clan's investment back then has paid off handsomely!" Elder Kuxin laughed heartily. Then he said, "Rongku, you can go now. I will report this matter to my teacher."

"He is a veteran."

After reporting the news, King Rongku turned and left.

The elder, looking in the direction of his teacher's seclusion, said with admiration, "Teacher's vision is indeed a hundred or a thousand times better than mine. Back then, I only thought that human genius was alright, but Teacher bestowed upon him the Banyan Wood Divine Blade, which is comparable to a priceless treasure. If this Prince Qingshan becomes a top human expert, this act of kindness alone will be enough to protect our race for countless epochs."

……

On the other side, in Hongmeng City, Star Wheel King and Lu Qingshan walked for a long time before arriving at the outside of a huge building.

Above the shop's entrance, the three large characters "Yu Bao Tang" appear very grand and imposing.

King Xinglun explained, "Yu Bao Tang is the largest treasure trading shop in the Hong Alliance. The unique prizes of Pu Ya Palace are basically all from here. Yu Bao Tang has two floors. The first floor already has tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of treasures. As for the second floor, you need to be a user of four stars or above, or have more than 1000 billion Hunyuan units deposited in the two major human banks. Let's go in and take a look at the first floor. There are already countless treasures on the first floor."

Xinglun Wang was a qualified tour guide; he explained all the rules before leading Lu Qingshan inside.

They were also worried that Lu Qingshan might not know the rules and would be unhappy if he went to the second floor without permission and was stopped.

This has happened before.

The two went inside.

Although Yubao Hall only has two floors, it is larger than Puya Palace from before.

On the first floor, the shelves on both sides were densely packed with treasures.

Prices vary.

The highest level has hundreds of billions of mixed units, while the lowest level has millions of mixed units.

To be honest, Lu Qingshan doesn't have much savings right now, so he can only look at most of the treasures.

After wandering around for a while, his gaze fell on a huge golden armor displayed on the first floor.

The golden-armored figure is eight meters tall and looks extremely imposing.

Lu Qingshan looked at the introduction above.

"It really is the King Armor of the Flame God Clan..."

The armor's information is described in great detail, clearly outlining its advantages, disadvantages, and origins. This armor was left behind by a powerful King-level expert of the Flame God Clan after his death. Its advantage is its astonishing defense, possessing strong physical and spiritual defense. However, its obvious disadvantages are that it cannot shrink, its face cannot be protected against attacks, and it is also expensive…

This golden armor is priced at 50 billion Chaos Units. It's unlikely that anyone other than someone driven by curiosity or someone who already knows how to use it would buy it.

Lu Qingshan knew that this was a top human expert who had put it here to fish for information, with the aim of finding out how to use the Yan Shen Clan's battle armor. Later, he caught Luo Feng.

After glancing at it a few times, Lu Qingshan turned and left. Compared to the Time Overlord Armor he was wearing, the King Armor of the Yan God Clan was nothing.

Moreover, I can't use this thing at all.

After browsing around Yu Baotang for a long time, Lu Qingshan spent over 100 million Hunyuan units to purchase several treasures that would greatly benefit immortal gods, intending to bestow them upon his disciples in the future.

……

Beyond the human realm, in the distant cosmos.

The Golden Rock Clan youth, transformed from the Ghost King's avatar, arrived in the skies above a vast continent aboard an ordinary spaceship.

"Kill! Wipe out these scum of the Golden Rock Clan."

"Resist!"

"For our people, for the Jinyan tribe!"

There was constant shouting and killing.

The Golden Rock Clan, which is similar to the Ghost King's clone, is being besieged by the Black Rock Clan and the Red Rock Clan.

The battle was incredibly fierce.

Far from the battlefield, Jin Yansen, the immortal god of the Jin Yan clan, was also facing an attack from two immortal gods. At this moment, his divine body was very weak, obviously having been shattered.

"Jin Yansen, surrender! As long as you leave Jinyan City and hand it over to us, you can live!"

"Impossible. Jinyan City is the place where our Jinyan people have lived and multiplied for generations. If we hand it over to you, where will our Jinyan people survive?"

"You still have your divine kingdom, let them live in your divine kingdom, haha."

"Damn it! My Jinyan clan would rather die than surrender. Even if our Jinyan clan is wiped out, our Jinyan clan's geniuses who are abroad will definitely return to take revenge in the future!"

"Haha, you still expect Jin Yanming from your Jin Yan clan? Although he is a Realm Lord War General, he hasn't returned for so many years. He might have died somewhere already."

……

"Oh, who just said I'm dead?"

A slight fluctuation occurred in spacetime.

The Ghost King's clone, in the form of a Jin Yan clan youth, appeared on the side of the battlefield.

"Jin Yanming! What are you doing back here? Get out of here now, and avenge your clan in the future!"

Upon seeing Jin Yanming, Jin Yansen, who was standing to the side, spoke loudly.

The immortal god, clad in crimson armor, flashed a ruthless glint in his eyes, raised his hand, and hurled a massive red warhammer toward the Ghost King's avatar.

"Jin Yanming, now that you're back, you're not leaving again!"

"hehe."

The Ghost King's avatar easily turned and dodged the warhammer. His body transformed into a streak of light, arriving beside the immortal god in crimson armor. He drew his sword, then sheathed it...

"Pfft!"

The immortal god's divine body disintegrated in the air, turning into countless tiny fragments that slowly disappeared.

One strike slays the Immortal Army Lord!
