Chapter 351: The Cruelty of the Universe: The Migration of Clans

"I never thought that Herodotus would still perish!"

After seeing off the Jinjiao Clan elder Clemens, Lu Qingshan returned to his own residence and couldn't help but sigh.

In the original story, the Jinjiao Clan elder Herodotus perished in the Cosmic Secret Realm, and as a result, the Jinjiao Clan became a vassal clan of the Human Race, even migrating their entire clan to a Cosmic Secret Realm within the Qianwu Universe Country to breed and thrive.

And now, even with Lu Qingshan's appearance, the Jinjiao Clan elder Herodotus still perished.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan quickly used the Virtual Universe to inquire about the reason for Herodotus's demise.

The Virtual Universe did not detect overly detailed information either; it only recorded that over three thousand years ago, a Hong Alliance powerhouse from the Zushen Sect saw Herodotus enter the Zushen Sect's Secret Realm alone.

"It seems Herodotus must have perished within the Zushen Sect's Secret Realm!"

After reading the relevant news, Lu Qingshan guessed silently in his heart: "It seems he must have encountered a dangerous place and perished suddenly; if he had encountered another powerhouse, Herodotus could have transmitted a message through the Virtual Universe!"

"However, after Herodotus's demise, the Jinjiao Clan's days are likely to be difficult!"

In fact, with Lu Qingshan's current wealth, he could completely help the Jinjiao Clan pay the price to reverse time and space to resurrect Herodotus.

After all, Herodotus's strength was only average among Universe Dominators, and the supreme treasures on his person were not too precious; even though he was not a native powerhouse of the Human Race, the resurrection price would not exceed ten Ordinary Ordinary Zhibao Points.

But then again, even if the entire wealth of many Universe Dominators were combined, it would not necessarily reach ten Ordinary Ordinary Zhibao Points.

Moreover, even if Herodotus were resurrected by the Great Axe Founder through time-space reversal, having lost his supreme treasures, he could at most unleash strength at the level of a High-Grade Universe Lord, which still could not solve the Jinjiao Clan's current predicament.

"Enough!"

Lu Qingshan thought silently in his heart: "This matter is best to consult with my teacher; whether to take the Jinjiao Clan as a vassal clan of our Human Race as in the original story, or to ask the Great Axe Founder to resurrect that Herodotus, both require my teacher to step forward!"

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan immediately connected his consciousness to the Virtual Universe and then hurried to his teacher Bing Feng Zhi Zhu's residence.

Virtual Universe, Lei Ting Island peak.

Inside the Bingfeng God Temple, covered by endless chaotic qi flows.

A figure clad in purple-gold battle armor suddenly appeared out of thin air in the main hall; it was Lu Qingshan.

He saw him walk directly to the depths of the hall, then respectfully call out: "Disciple pays respects to teacher!"

Soon, a tall figure clad in a silver long robe walked directly out from the depths of the endless chaotic qi flows; it was Lu Qingshan's teacher, Bing Feng Zhi Zhu.

"Qingshan!"

Bing Feng Zhi Zhu's eyes, which seemed to contain endless starry skies, looked directly at Lu Qingshan, then asked with a smile: "Haven't you been secretly cultivating within that Zushen Sect recently? Why do you suddenly have time to come to your teacher here?"

"Disciple has come this time with a matter to consult teacher!" Lu Qingshan quickly replied respectfully.

"Oh?"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Bing Feng Zhi Zhu felt quite surprised: "Qingshan, have you encountered a difficulty on the path of cultivation? It's just that your teacher is not very familiar with the Dao of Thunder-Time Fusion either, and I'm afraid I cannot guide you!"

"What Disciple wishes to consult is not about cultivation!" Lu Qingshan hurriedly replied.

"Then what matter is it?" Bing Feng Zhi Zhu quickly continued to ask.

"It is like this, Teacher!"

Lu Qingshan immediately replied: "Disciple is quite friendly with that Jinjiao Clan; now that the Jinjiao Clan leader Herodotus has suddenly perished, other Universe Lords of the Jinjiao Clan recently also sought help from Disciple, so Disciple has come to consult Teacher!"

"So it is the matter of that Jinjiao Clan!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Bing Feng Zhi Zhu quickly said with a smile: "Your teacher actually forgot; you indeed received some favors within that Jinjiao Clan back then!"

When Bing Feng Zhi Zhu accepted Lu Qingshan as a disciple, he naturally investigated Lu Qingshan in detail, so he also knew of Lu Qingshan's experience going to the Jinjiao Clan back then.

However, such matters were too common in the Human Race, so Bing Feng Zhi Zhu naturally would not care at all.

But as Lu Qingshan's current strength and status became higher and higher, the favors from back then naturally became heavier and heavier.

"Your teacher has actually also heard about that Jinjiao Clan's matter!"

Bing Feng Zhi Zhu nodded slightly to Lu Qingshan, then continued: "After Herodotus's demise, the Jinjiao Clan also submitted an application to the Hong Alliance high command, wishing to ask the Great Axe Founder to resurrect that Herodotus; however, their Jinjiao Clan's contribution within the Hong Alliance was insufficient to pay the price to resurrect Herodotus, so this application was rejected by the Hong Alliance high command!"

"Teacher!"

After hearing Bing Feng Zhi Zhu's words, Lu Qingshan quickly continued: "I wonder how much more contribution the Jinjiao Clan lacks to resurrect that Herodotus; Disciple is willing to pay a portion of the contribution for them!"

"You little fellow are quite generous!"

Bing Feng Zhi Zhu looked at Lu Qingshan, then continued: "However, there is no need to be too anxious about this matter; even if that Herodotus is resurrected through time-space reversal, his strength would at most be that of a High-Grade Lord, completely unable to solve the Jinjiao Clan's current predicament!"

"Moreover, regarding that Jinjiao Clan's matter, our Human Race high command has other arrangements!"

"Other arrangements?" Lu Qingshan was slightly puzzled.

"That is correct!"

Bing Feng Zhi Zhu quickly nodded and said: "Although that Herodotus's strength is not very strong, his comprehension of the Jin Kong Beast God Dao is very deep; at the very least, no one in our Human Race can surpass him in the Jin Kong Beast God Dao!"

"The《Yan Shen Seven Transformations》he created himself is even one of the supreme supreme arts for researching and cultivating the Jin Kong Beast God Dao; our Human Race has always wanted to get it into our hands, but that Herodotus never contributed it!"

"Now that Herodotus has perished, our Human Race can take the opportunity to get that《Yan Shen Seven Transformations》into our hands!"

"And that Jinjiao Clan's Sacred Stele, although crafted quite roughly, its guidance for cultivating the Jin Kong Beast God Dao can already rival our Human Race's fifty Supreme Chaos Steles!"

"So that is how it is!"

After hearing Bing Feng Zhi Zhu's words, a flash of realization quickly arose in Lu Qingshan's heart.

In fact, for the Human Race, that《Yan Shen Seven Transformations》and the Jinjiao Clan's Sacred Stele were far more important than Herodotus and the entire Jinjiao Clan.

It's just that the Jinjiao Clan is a Hong Alliance member; although the Human Race is the leader of the Hong Alliance, if they were to seize by force or trickery from alliance members, it would surely cause other members to feel the sorrow of the fox mourning the rabbit's death.

Therefore, even if the Human Race coveted the Jinjiao Clan's Sacred Stele and that《Yan Shen Seven Transformations》, they could not directly seize them by force or trickery, but would acquire them through various gentle means.

"And also..."

Bing Feng Zhi Zhu spoke again: "That Jinjiao Clan's territory borders the Wenluo Clan's territory; that Wenluo Clan leader, Master Wenluo Zhi, although his strength is not very good, possesses clones and is very difficult to deal with."

Hearing these words, Lu Qingshan nodded silently again.

A Universe Master possessing clones is absolutely an extremely difficult existence in this vast Primal Universe.

First, the wills of all Universe Masters are incredibly powerful; in this Primal Universe where strength can at most reach the sixth rank, even the strongest beings skilled in soul attacks cannot achieve completely penetrating and annihilating all clones of a Universe Master possessing clones through soul attacks.

In this way, a Universe Master possessing clones only needs to hide one of his clones, and basically no one will be able to completely annihilate him.

Once a powerful being offends him, he may be unable to retaliate against that powerful being directly, yet he can continuously retaliate against that powerful being's clan and so on through his avatars. Even if an avatar perishes in the process, the loss is at most some supreme treasures and divine power; it only requires a period of time to be reborn once more.

"Now that Naxiluo has perished, the Lord Jinjiao clan should find it very difficult to hold onto their original territories!"
