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

Chapter 354 Setting an Unsurpassable Benchmark
In the primordial universe, there was a dwelling in the green mountains.

Today, an uninvited guest arrived at Lu Qingshan's manor.

"come in."

Lu Qingshan opened the gate of the manor and said calmly.

A handsome young man dressed in a black robe followed him in, showing no displeasure at Lu Qingshan's poor attitude.

The two walked through a long corridor and arrived at a pavilion. Lu Qingshan sat on an exquisite chair and then turned to look at the other person with a smile.

"What wind has blown you, the Grandmaster of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance and disciple of the Cosmic Venerable, here with me?"

“King of Ten Thousand Dharmas…” The handsome young man bowed and said with great sincerity, “I am extremely sorry for injuring your disciple. I was deceived by my clansmen back then.”

"Oh? Your people dare to deceive you?"

Lu Qingshan chuckled.

“That’s indeed the case…” After his teacher, the Dark Demon Venerable, reminded him last time, the Demon King began to carefully investigate what happened back then. Over the years, he had thoroughly investigated the matter and said apologetically, “This matter originated from the immortal deity Thor of our Barnes family’s business department…”

The Demon King was very well prepared. He slowly recounted the contents of his investigation over the years and brought out all the evidence he had prepared in advance.

This suggests that their family's immortal god, Thor, was controlled by an alien race, which is why he deliberately provoked the conflict. Both Demon King and Lu Qingshan were victims.

"I was born into a very small branch of the Barnes family. After comprehending a domain at the planetary level and demonstrating my talent, I was noticed by the main branch of the Barnes family and nurtured with all my might. Later, I was invited to join the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance and became a disciple of the Dark Demon Venerable. Therefore, I am very grateful to the Barnes family. When I learned that your disciple had killed several core members of our family for some slaves, I took action to teach him a lesson..."

"After my teacher reminded me, I realized there might be some problems. Then I discovered that Thor had left the family and disappeared. Over the years, I have investigated in detail and have the results, so I came here immediately."

The evidence presented by the Demon King is indeed very detailed.

This demonstrates that he was unaware beforehand and confirms that Thor was indeed being controlled by a soul.

But to say that they've been investigating all these years and come here as soon as they have results is utter nonsense.

If it weren't for the fact that the second senior brother, Dragon Whale King, broke through to the Universe Venerable level, even if Demon Heart King knew about this, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to apologize.

However, Lu Qingshan did not expose him.

What a genius!
It's normal to have some arrogance.

This matter wasn't exactly a life-or-death feud, and besides, the Bloodthirsty King had already helped him vent his anger.

Of course, if this incident were to affect the foundation of Bru's cultivation, or even lead to his death, it would definitely not be a simple matter.

Lu Qingshan had just scanned the Demon Heart King with his spiritual power and found that he was a second-class genius, which was indeed very rare. If he were a first-class genius, Lu Qingshan might be tempted.

"Before coming here, I sent Bru many treasures for healing the soul and gave him some compensation. I have found all of the chip slaves that Thor bought from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, which number in the hundreds of billions, and returned them to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom."

Lu Qingshan naturally knew about this.

When Bru received those slaves, he had already reported it to Lu Qingshan. Bru only accepted the apologies after Lu Qingshan spoke up.

"Demon King, since you, a Grandmaster-level expert, have come to apologize in person, I will give you some face and let this matter go. I hope you will be smarter in the future and not be used by the alien races again."

Lu Qingshan said calmly.

"Thank you for the reminder, Venerable Wanfa."

The Demon King nodded.

After apologizing, Demon King realized that Lu Qingshan didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he wisely left.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he reached the main gate of Qingshan Residence. Although he felt very frustrated today, he had managed to avert a crisis.

A man can bend and stretch.

He is indeed no match for the King of Ten Thousand Dharmas, and he cannot afford to offend the King of Ten Thousand Dharmas' senior brother, Venerable Dragon Whale!
Demon King glanced back at Green Mountain Residence, then took a deep breath. He realized that he was still too weak. If he could break through to the Universe Venerable realm in the future, perhaps he could regain the face he had lost today.

"Hey, Demon King, long time no see. How's your teacher?"

A rough voice came.

Demon King was startled and quickly turned around, only to find it was True King Yan. No wonder he hadn't been noticed when the other teleported to the side.

"Greetings, True King..." Demon King bowed.

He dared not underestimate the True King. When he was still a little guy at the Domain Lord level, this man was already an invincible existence among the Kings. If he were to kill him, he could probably be dealt with in one move.

After bowing, he said, "Teacher is well. Not long ago, you mentioned the True King."

"Oh, what did the Dark Demon Lord say about me?"

"The True King asked with a smile."

Demon King was a bit annoyed. He hadn't expected True King to ask so many questions. He replied, "My teacher told me to learn more from True King and to be able to endure loneliness when creating secret techniques."

“Learning from me is useless. If you want to learn, learn from the King of Ten Thousand Dharmas. He is much stronger than me.”

King Zhenyan chuckled.

After saying that, he ignored the Demon King standing to the side and walked into the gate of Green Mountain Residence.

He had already heard about the feud between Demon King and Lu Qingshan from his disciples.

This matter had nothing to do with him, but he still spoke up to remind this genius who had once taken classes under his tutelage that the King of Ten Thousand Laws wasn't incapable of killing him, but simply chose not to bother with him. If he didn't know what was good for him, he was courting death!

"This... King Zhenyan actually said that his strength is inferior to King Wanfa." King Moxin stood there, looking at the tightly closed door, his expression somewhat incredulous.

"How is this possible? Didn't the King of Ten Thousand Laws just break through to the Immortal God realm? But what the True King of Evolution said..."

The Demon King exhaled, and the flames that had just been lit were instantly extinguished by the ice water.

The True King was clearly pointing at him. As a veteran, invincible king, there was absolutely no need for the other party to deceive him.

Even if the True King of Yan only needed one move to kill him, the King of Ten Thousand Laws would definitely be even faster... His strength is countless times greater than his, and his talent is higher than his. How can he possibly regain his face?

"Let's just leave it at that, let it go..."

……

It is nestled in the green mountains.

King Zhenyan sat casually opposite Lu Qingshan, looking at the documents sent by King Moxin.

“King of Ten Thousand Laws, you still need to be careful. I’m worried that this alien race is still up to no good. They must hate human geniuses, especially geniuses like you, King of Ten Thousand Laws, to the core.”

"They failed this time, but perhaps the assassination plan is not over yet, and they are still waiting for you to appear."

"True King Yan reminded me."

"Haha, I'm right here in the initial universe. Even if the alien races hate me to the bone, what can they do?"

Lu Qingshan took out a bottle of Ice Rain Wine and poured a glass for King Zhenyan.

"It is absolutely safe in the Chaos City of the Initial Universe. In the history of the human race, there has never been a genius who was assassinated here. On the contrary, a few universe venerables from other races once broke into it, and then the great Chaos City Lord made a move and killed them instantly. Those were universe venerables from some weak races who were ignorant. Look at the demon race, the insect race, and the mechanical race, they never send anyone here."

"It was Zhenyanwang who recalled it."

Lu Qingshan was not surprised at all.

In this primordial universe, not to mention the cosmic sovereigns, even the strongest beings in the universe would not escape the fate of being suppressed if they entered.

Even though the Primordial Ancestor was suppressed, this is still his microcosm. The Lord of Chaos City can suppress the strongest by wielding a portion of his authority. Even in the most dangerous time for humanity in the future, no strongest will dare to venture here. He only wants to destroy the cosmic passage and isolate humanity in the primordial universe.

It can be said that the initial universe was the safest place for humanity, bar none. Unless the progenitor committed suicide, it could have sheltered humanity for three lifetimes.

King Zhenyan came over for a free meal and left only after he had eaten and drunk his fill. During the meal and conversation, he recounted some interesting stories from the past.

"After the Second Senior Brother left the Initial Universe, the True King's mentality seems to have improved a lot."

Lu Qingshan smiled slightly.

The ape-men seemed to be quite optimistic. Their disciple, Jemin, was like that, as was the one they had encountered on the battlefield outside the domain, and even the True King, despite suffering a setback, did not become discouraged. After drinking a few cups of fine wine, he gradually recovered.

Only people like this have the potential to become strong.

If someone is truly narrow-minded and selfish, even if they are a top genius, Lu Qingshan wouldn't care.

For someone with a cheat-like advantage, becoming the strongest is inevitable; it's just a matter of whether the process is faster or slower.

As long as he lives, and the longer he lives, the more desperate the enemy will become.

Lu Qingshan raised his hand.

All the evidence and documents sent by the Demon King on the table turned to ashes.

He wouldn't care whether the assassination plan was terminated or not; he wouldn't take any risks before becoming a Universal Venerable.

After becoming a Universe Venerable, with his numerous methods and the return of supreme treasures, even the strongest beings in the primordial universe could not control his soul, so there were no more concerns.

"The fusion of laws..." Lu Qingshan pondered for a moment.

In recent days, the World Tree avatar in the Divine Kingdom continued its previous deductions and fusion, while the One-Horned Ghost King avatar of the Ancestral God Sect also received a Beast God inheritance, taking a step forward on the path of law fusion.

For him, becoming a Cosmic Venerable is now only a matter of time.

Yi Yun's return of the law helped him integrate the law, but not significantly.

However, Lu Qingshan still intends to continue training him.

Having invested so much, the sunk costs were too high, and Lu Qingshan didn't want to change people. He planned to directly cultivate Yi Yun to the King level, and then let him break through to immortality and become a King-level immortal god.

One reason is to create an insurmountable benchmark, but the main reason is that Lu Qingshan currently needs a disciple of the highest caliber.

Yi Yun has reached the point of being granted the title of King...

The Ice Prison Dew, and even the cultivation method of the Time Body, can all be bestowed upon the other party.

What the cashback would be was, even Lu Qingshan himself couldn't predict, but he was certain that the main body and several clones would have no problem with a hundredfold increase in amplitude.

"Yi Yun must be in the initial universe."

After Lu Qingshan bestowed the Snow Demon Flower upon Yi Yun last time, Yi Yun applied for the qualification to go to the Initial Universe to comprehend it, intending to use up the two qualifications to comprehend the Chaos Stele. Since he did not come to bid farewell, he must still be in Chaos City.

With that in mind, Lu Qingshan sent an email.
