Chapter 250: Handover, Return

While exchanging words with the Master of the Emerald Wave Mansion, Lu Qingshan, drawing on his understanding of the original *Coiling Dragon* novel, also gained deeper insight into the Great Perfection High God.

It must be known that in the *Coiling Dragon* world, apart from the four Supreme Realms and the seven Divine Realms, the countless material planes are too numerous to count.

Yet, throughout endless ages, the number of Great Perfection High Gods, or rather, those 'suspected' to be Great Perfection High Gods, absolutely never exceeded thirty.

Moreover, figures like the Master and the Purgatory Commanders actually do not differ too much from Great Perfection High Gods in terms of the profundities of the Laws.

The reason why Great Perfection High Gods are so much stronger than the Master of the Emerald Wave Mansion and others is that once a High God's comprehension of the Laws reaches Great Perfection, a transformation occurs in an instant.

After such a transformation is completed, Heaven and Earth bestow upon the Great Perfection High God a right: a willful pressure imbued with the rules of Heaven and Earth, belonging to the willful pressure of Great Perfection experts.

Thus, even if a Great Perfection High God merely unleashes a normal attack, once it merges with their will, its power will rise to an extremely terrifying degree.

This is a special ability bestowed by Heaven and Earth upon Great Perfection experts, one that can even allow them to resist the mental attacks of a Sovereign God.

Of course, this is also a secret for Great Perfection High Gods, so even the Master of the Emerald Wave Mansion is unaware of it.

The reason Lu Qingshan is able to know this is because the original *Coiling Dragon* novel explicitly mentioned it.

Therefore, upon realizing that Great Perfection High Gods are rarely encountered and that their grasp of the Laws' profundities is not much superior to the Master of the Emerald Wave Mansion, Lu Qingshan temporarily abandoned the thought of seeking out a Great Perfection High God for a duel.

Precisely for this reason, after the banquet concluded, Lu Qingshan departed the Emerald Wave City very quickly.

Even though the Master of the Emerald Wave Mansion repeatedly urged him to stay, he felt no attachment whatsoever.

After all, for Lu Qingshan, his foundation still lies in the Starry Sky World.

The reason he crossed realms this time was not only due to Ye Lu's invitation to help Lin Lei make up for regrets, but also to collect treasures that could aid his cultivation.

Now that everything he wished to do has been accomplished, naturally, he would not linger any longer.

Mirror Moon Cliff; this is where the teleportation passage of the Zijing Continent is located.

When Lu Qingshan originally teleported over from the Yu Lan Continent, he appeared right here.

Now that he intends to return to the Yu Lan Continent plane, he naturally must pass through the teleportation passage here.

Surrounding this Mirror Moon Cliff, there are numerous Zijing Army soldiers on patrol.

"Halt, intruder!"

Seeing someone approach Mirror Moon Cliff, the surrounding Zijing Army soldiers on patrol quickly shouted loudly.

Hearing these words, Lu Qingshan quickly stopped his movement.

The leader of the Zijing Army soldiers swept his gaze over Lu Qingshan, then quickly shouted: "What business do you have coming to Mirror Moon Cliff?"

"I wish to enter the teleportation passage to return to the material plane!" Lu Qingshan quickly spoke.

Upon hearing these words, all the surrounding Zijing Army soldiers were slightly startled.

It must be known that the cost to teleport to other Supreme Realms and Divine Realms is somewhat lower, affordable for many High Gods, but to return to the material plane, the required cost is terrifyingly high.

Experts capable of bearing such costs are either immensely powerful or possess astonishing backgrounds.

"Hmm!"

The attitude of the leader of the Zijing Army soldiers immediately became much gentler; he then looked at Lu Qingshan and said: "Follow me!"

Following this Zijing Army soldier, Lu Qingshan quickly arrived at the teleportation passage inside the castle atop Mirror Moon Cliff.

"Mid-level God?"

After learning that Lu Qingshan intended to go to the material plane, a Zijing Army soldier scrutinized Lu Qingshan several times before exclaiming in surprise: "According to the rules, returning to the material plane costs one hundred billion Mo Stones for a Mid-level God, and three Low-level Gods may be brought along for free!"

Hearing these words, Lu Qingshan himself was also quite surprised.

One hundred billion Mo Stones is an astonishing sum even for a High God.

Of course, during his subsequent journey, Lu Qingshan had casually slain many bandits; although gathering the one trillion Mo Stones required for a High God's teleportation was somewhat difficult, gathering one hundred billion Mo Stones was relatively easy.

After collecting the teleportation fee, the surrounding Zijing Army soldiers quickly asked Lu Qingshan which material plane he wished to go to, then activated the teleportation passage.

Yu Lan Continent.

The cold wind howled, sweeping across heaven and earth, with countless ice shards dancing endlessly in the air.

In this world constructed of ice, icebergs pierced the sky; shaped by the cold wind over endless ages, these icebergs had long become brilliantly bright, even capable of reflecting human figures.

On the highest of these icebergs stood eleven hexagram-shaped magic arrays that appeared extremely profound, and beside these magic arrays stood an ice house.

Suddenly...

A white-robed old man with white beard and hair suddenly emerged from the ice house; his sky-blue eyes gazed at the sky, and he could not help but sigh: "Staying here on the Arctic Ice Plains, it is difficult to see even a single person!"

"Recently, aside from that mysterious High God leaving the Yu Lan Continent, fewer and fewer Saint Domain experts are departing; it seems I too should venture out for a trip!"

This white-robed old man was naturally 'Huo Dan', the guardian of the Yu Lan Continent plane.

But just as Huo Dan intended to leave this Arctic Ice Plain, suddenly...

A brilliant light suddenly shone from a magic array not far from him; countless beams of light shot skyward, appearing extremely magnificent.

"It is the teleportation array of the Hell Realm!"

At this moment, Huo Dan could not help but be startled in his heart: "Could it be that an expert has come from Hell to the Yu Lan Continent plane?"

As the plane guardian, Huo Dan was very clear on how astonishing the cost to teleport to a material plane truly was.

Even a typical Seven-Star Demon would likely be reluctant to teleport even once.

"I wonder what kind of person is so wealthy and generous!"

While various thoughts flashed through his mind, Huo Dan also involuntarily bent his body in a bow.

Facing a supreme expert capable of returning from Hell to the material plane, how could he dare not show respect?

While bowing in salute, Huo Dan also silently observed the situation within the magic array, wishing to discern the identity of the arriving person.

Just then, a figure clad in purple-gold battle armor quickly materialized within the hazy light; it was none other than Lu Qingshan.

"It is him?"

Huo Dan looked at the arrival in disbelief, for this person was precisely Lu Qingshan, who had left the Yu Lan Continent over ten days ago.

At this moment, Lu Qingshan had already restored his aura to that of a High God, and the now-awakened Huo Dan quickly bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, my lord!"

"Mm!"

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, then swiftly flew away from the North Pole Ice Plains, heading toward the Yu Lan Continent.

"The power of this mysterious expert is truly formidable!"

Watching Lu Qingshan's departing figure from afar, the guardian Huo Dan thought silently to himself, "I wonder what this mysterious expert was doing on the Yu Lan Continent before? And now he has just left only to return again!"

"Could it be for the Ancient God's Graveyard from back then?"

"No, I must find a way to notify the family about this matter!"

Thinking this, Huo Dan quickly took action again.

On the other side, Lu Qingshan, having flown away from the North Pole Ice Plains, soon returned to the Yu Lan Continent.

His divine power spread out, and he almost immediately discovered the whereabouts of Ye Lu and his group.

By this time, Lin Lei had already separated from Ye Lu and his group, so Lu Qingshan arrived in Hes City first.

Since Ye Lu and the others had not yet left, the moment Lu Qingshan appeared in the mansion, Ye Lu quickly rushed over.

"Group Leader, you're back?" Ye Lu looked at Lu Qingshan in disbelief.

He naturally knew about Lu Qingshan's journey to the Underworld, which was why he was so surprised.

After all, only a little over ten days had passed since Lu Qingshan left the Yu Lan Continent.

"Since everything is done, of course I've returned!" Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

While speaking, Lu Qingshan quickly took out two spatial rings and handed them to Ye Lu.

"Group Leader, what is this?" Ye Lu asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Ye Lu, I will be leaving your world very soon!"

Lu Qingshan quickly explained with a smile, "Although we can use the cross-world teleportation function within the chat group, if we wish to carry treasures from other worlds back with us, it requires consuming a great deal of points!"

"In this world ring are some treasures that I need!"

Lu Qingshan pointed to one of the spatial rings and said, "However, to take these treasures back to my original world, I would need to consume a huge amount of points, but I don't have that many points on me right now, so I can only ask you to keep them for me for now!"

"Every member of our chat group can receive one free red packet quota each month, with a maximum limit of one hundred thousand points. So I hope you can use this free red packet quota to send me the items I need in batches!"

"I checked earlier; the most precious High Godhood in there only requires a quota of fifty thousand points per piece. One red packet can send two pieces, so it won't take long for you to send them all to me!"

"Of course, I won't let you help for nothing!"

Lu Qingshan quickly pointed to the other spatial ring and said, "Inside this spatial ring are some rewards I have prepared for you!"

"Inside are some Soul Golden Pearls that can enhance your comprehension, as well as four sets of Godhoods, representing the four elements of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire. Each set contains a carefully refined Low Godhood, a Mid Godhood, and a High Godhood!"

"If you simply give one set of Godhoods to someone trustworthy, it won't take long for them to refine the Godhood and become a High God!"

"Group Leader, this..."

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Ye Lu was stunned speechless.

After all, he had previously read through the relevant plot of "Deity's Path".

Even the 'God of War' of the O'Brien Empire or the 'Grand Priest' of the Yu Lan Empire were merely ordinary Low Gods.

Yet now, Lu Qingshan had produced four sets of Godhoods in one go, each capable of creating a High God!

A High God, before the appearance of the powerful figures from the Plane Prison, was absolutely considered a top-tier expert on the Yu Lan Continent.

Excluding Beilute and his few children, there was simply no one who could stand against a High God.

"This..."

Coming to his senses, Ye Lu quickly said, "Group Leader, this is far too precious!"

"No matter!"

Lu Qingshan waved his hand casually and said, "These things mean nothing to me. As long as you send me the treasures I need, that would be a great help!"

"This..."

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Ye Lu quickly said, "Then I thank you, Group Leader! Please rest assured, I will send you the treasures you need as soon as possible!"

After saying this, Ye Lu quickly took out a set of Godhoods, then asked, "Group Leader, are there any requirements for refining these Godhoods?"

"The requirements aren't very high!"

Lu Qingshan said with a smile, "Although refining a Low Godhood normally requires reaching the Saint Domain realm, when I purchased these four sets of Godhoods, the Low Godhoods within them had undergone special processing!"

"As long as one possesses the realm of a Level 7 Warrior or a Level 7 Mage, they can refine it by dripping blood, and naturally become a Low God at that time!"

Hearing this, Ye Lu wasn't too surprised.

After all, in the original plot of "Deity's Path", Lin Lei's wife, Delia, had once fused a Godhood brought back by the magical beast Beibei before reaching the Saint Domain, and thereby broke through to the Low God realm.

"What a pity..."

Looking at the Fire-element Godhood set he had taken out, Ye Lu couldn't help but sigh, "My current Warrior level is only six, and my Mage level is even lower. To fuse a Godhood, I'll have to wait some time!"

Hearing Ye Lu's words, Lu Qingshan was slightly stunned.

After all, although he had prepared four sets of Godhoods for Ye Lu, he hadn't intended for Ye Lu to fuse one of them.

Thinking this, Lu Qingshan quickly asked, "Ye Lu, do you want to fuse a set of Godhoods?"

"What's wrong? Group Leader?"

Ye Lu asked, puzzled, "Does that mean I cannot fuse these Godhoods?"

"That's not it!"

Lu Qingshan quickly said, "I think you should cultivate slowly. After all, only by becoming a god independently can one fuse a Sovereign Godhood to become a Sovereign God!"

"Sovereign Godhood?"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Ye Lu shook his head and said, "Group Leader, you know me; my talent isn't very good. Relying solely on my own cultivation, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for me to even reach the Saint Domain, let alone become a god, or even cultivate to the High God realm!"

"Compared to that, fusing a Godhood is quite simple, and the strength of a High God isn't weak either!"

Hearing Ye Lu's words, Lu Qingshan was stunned again.

He truly did not expect Ye Lu to be such a slacker, even more so than Tianmeng Ice Silkworm in the chat group!

Shortly after, Lu Qingshan quickly said: "Ye Lu, the chat group has a Dao-Comprehension Enhancement function; you should learn more about it in the future! With the help of the Dao-Comprehension Enhancement function, your cultivation will surely be easier from now on!"

"If you still feel it is not quite suitable by then, there is no rush to fuse with a Godseed!"

Hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Ye Lu quickly nodded and said: "I understand, Group Master!"

Next, Lu Qingshan instructed Ye Lu on many things.

After arranging everything properly, Lu Qingshan set off in pursuit of the direction Lin Lei had left.

At this time, after parting ways with Ye Lu and the others, Lin Lei was still crossing the Beast Mountain Range as in the original story, heading for the O'Brien Empire.

So Lu Qingshan soon met Lin Lei within the Beast Mountain Range.

At this time, Lin Lei had already finished carving the stone statue modeled after himself; upon seeing Lu Qingshan appear, Lin Lei, though surprised in his heart, still handed the stone statue to Lu Qingshan.

After receiving the stone statue carved by Lin Lei, Lu Qingshan quickly handed a spatial ring to Lin Lei.

"Group Master, this is..." Lin Lei looked at Lu Qingshan with some confusion.

"This is the reward I give you!" Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

Hearing these words, Lin Lei quickly took the spatial ring into his hand: "Thank you, Group Master!"

"What, not planning to open it and take a look?" Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

Seeing this, Lin Lei quickly opened the spatial ring, which Lu Qingshan had already unbound, and took out several items from it.

"Group Master, I wonder what these treasures are?" Looking at the two unfamiliar treasures before him, Lin Lei quickly asked with some confusion.

"This is a Soul Jin Zhu; using it can enhance your soul and improve your comprehension!"

Lu Qingshan said with a smile: "As for the other treasure, it can help the Saint Domain soul beside you restore his body!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Lin Lei instantly became excited.

The reason he was so excited was not because of the Soul Jin Zhu that could strengthen his soul and improve his comprehension, but because his Grandpa Delin could finally restore his body.

"Grandpa Delin, did you hear that?" Lin Lei quickly said excitedly.

At this moment, Delin Kewote also quickly flew out of the Panlong Ring, looking at the treasure Lu Qingshan gave Lin Lei with equal excitement.

"This is something I obtained at great cost!"

Lu Qingshan looked at the souls of Lin Lei and Delin Kewote, then said with a smile: "You only need to permeate your spiritual energy into this treasure, and a new body can be reshaped!"

The value of this treasure was indeed quite precious, even more valuable than a High Godseed, but for Lu Qingshan it meant nothing, so he was quite willing to help Lin Lei.

Hearing these words, Delin Kewote quickly dove into that treasure amidst Lin Lei's expectant gaze.

Not long after, an old man wearing a moon-white long robe, with white beard and hair and a kind face, immediately appeared before Lin Lei; it was Delin Kewote.

However, unlike before, Delin Kewote at this moment clearly had a real body.

Delin Kewote first nodded slightly to Lin Lei, then looked at Lu Qingshan and respectfully thanked him: "Thank you, my lord!"

"No need for that!"

Lu Qingshan waved his hand and said: "The reason I helped you is simply because of Lin Lei!"

"Alright, since the matter is settled, I will not linger! Lin Lei, I hope we have the chance to meet again in the future!"

After saying this, Lu Qingshan immediately transformed into a streak of light and flew toward the distance.

After Lu Qingshan departed, Lin Lei quickly looked at Delin Kewote, who had restored his divine body: "Grandpa Delin!"

On the other side, after leaving Lin Lei and the others, Lu Qingshan did not choose to return to the original world immediately, but flew toward the direction of the Forest of Darkness.

At this time, all his matters had been arranged properly, so before leaving, he still wanted to witness the true power of the Main God.

And the Lower God, Beilute, who had been staying in the Forest of Darkness, was naturally his best target.

If Beilute held no hostility toward him, he could have a good exchange with the other party;

if Beilute held hostility toward him, his matters were now completely arranged, so even if he were killed by Beilute, there would be no loss.

Moments later, Lu Qingshan had already appeared before the dark metal castle in the Forest of Darkness.

After a round of voice transmission, the metal castle gate finally opened, and Lu Qingshan quickly entered the interior of the metal castle.

Half a day later, Lu Qingshan flew out of the metal castle again.

After leaving the Forest of Darkness, Lu Qingshan first greeted Ye Lu, then directly activated the inter-realm teleportation channel and left the Panlong World.
