Chapter 45: Ross

"It is me!"

'Purple Radiance' Ross nodded slightly, then said with some surprise: "I never expected that after not seeing each other for millions of years, Brother Lu Qingshan, you have also broken through to become an Immortal Deity!"

You must know, back when Lu Qingshan was his final opponent in charging into the Virtual Universe Company's core layer, the battle between the two of them back then was incredibly fierce.

Although Ross won in the end, his victory was by no means easy.

So after the Genius Battle ended, Ross had also collected some information about Lu Qingshan.

But after reading that information, Ross lost all interest in Lu Qingshan, who had nearly defeated him before.

Because the information at that time showed that Lu Qingshan had already cultivated for over six thousand years during the Genius Battle, while he, Ross, had only cultivated for a little over three hundred years at the time; this also indicated that there was an extremely obvious gap between Lu Qingshan and himself in terms of talent and comprehension, so naturally he would no longer continue to pay attention to Lu Qingshan.

Ross originally thought there would definitely be no further interaction between himself and Lu Qingshan, but he never expected that after millions of years had passed, Lu Qingshan had actually broken through to become an Immortal Deity!

Although Lu Qingshan's strength now should be inferior to his, since they can both become Immortals and possess eternal lifespans in the future, the gap between the two of them is not that large.

"I just had better luck!" Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Luck is also part of strength!"

Ross quickly greeted enthusiastically: "Come, come, come, let's go inside and talk!"

Seeing this, Lu Qingshan immediately instructed the two Domain Master-level experts from the logistics department behind him: "Alright, this mission can now be completed; you may return to report!"

"Yes, my lord!" the two Domain Master-level experts replied respectfully, then immediately turned and left.

And after those two Domain Masters left, Lu Qingshan also quickly entered the living room of the luxurious villa under Ross's invitation.

"Brother Lu Qingshan, come taste my fine wine!"

After the two sat down, Ross waved his hand, and immediately all sorts of fine wines and delicacies appeared before Lu Qingshan: "This bottle of Deity Drunkenness, I exchanged for it from the army system only after spending thirty million military merits; if I hadn't met you, I definitely wouldn't have been willing to bring it out!"

"Thirty million military merits?" Lu Qingshan's heart stirred.

In the Outer Battlefield, every hundred thousand military merits can be exchanged for one Hunyuan unit, or one point!

Thirty million military merits is three hundred Hunyuan units!

Spending three hundred Hunyuan units to buy a bottle of fine wine; even most Immortal Deities would be far too reluctant to do such a thing!

Immediately, Lu Qingshan drained the wine in his cup in one gulp, feeling his soul tremble.

"Excellent wine!"

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but exclaim: "This Deity Drunkenness truly lives up to its name, and it even has a certain nourishing effect on my Immortal Divine Body! If I hadn't met you, Ross, I don't know how long it would have been before I could drink such fine wine in reality!"

"Hahaha, it's a small matter! If Brother Lu Qingshan likes this wine, I will exchange another bottle for you later!"

Ross said with a smile: "By the way, Brother Lu Qingshan, do you know when you broke through to become an Immortal Deity?"

"Actually, I only broke through not long ago!"

Lu Qingshan said with a smile: "Previously, I purchased an initial universe comprehension quota at the Domain Master level; I cultivated in the initial universe for three hundred years, and only then successfully broke through to the Immortal Realm; afterwards, I directly joined the Virtual Universe Company's transportation department!"

"After resting for a thousand years, I finally went to the company headquarters to officially start work; I never expected that the first mission after starting work would be to deliver supplies to you, Ross!"

"That is truly a coincidence!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Ross couldn't help but say with a smile: "But this also shows that there is a great affinity between you, Brother Lu Qingshan, and me!"

"Speaking of which, I am quite envious of you, Brother Lu Qingshan!"

As if he had rarely met an acquaintance, Ross's words gradually increased: "Back when I joined the Virtual Universe Company, I always followed the company's arrangements to carry out various tempering missions!"

"When I was at the Universe level, I was always adventuring in the Various Secret Realms; when I was at the Domain Lord level, I returned to the branch where the Universe Kingdom is located to control a region of great power; after breaking through to the Domain Master level, I barely managed to charge into the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, and in the end, I still had to come to this Outer Battlefield for life-and-death tempering!"

"Isn't this quite good?"

Lu Qingshan said with a smile: "With the tempering of the Virtual Universe Company, your strength improvement speed is much faster than mine; I see that you should have already crossed into the Marquis level now!"

"Not quite!"

Ross couldn't help but shake his head and say: "After I broke through to become an Immortal Deity this time, although because I once cultivated a set of amplification secret techniques very suitable for myself, I barely possess combat power at the Marquis level, my current comprehension of the Shi Shi Jian Ben Yuan Law is only at the level of the Fourteenth Floor of the Sky-Connecting Bridge; there is still a distance before I can master the Undying Body, which is most important for Marquis-level experts!"

"That is already very impressive!"

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but exclaim: "My current comprehension of the Time Origin Law is only comparable to the level of the Seventh Floor of the Sky-Connecting Bridge; if I hadn't comprehended the complete Lightning Origin Law, it would be impossible to break through to the Immortal Realm!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Ross nodded silently in his heart.

Actually, this is the difference between geniuses like them, who have been carefully cultivated by the Five Great Powers, and ordinary experts from the outside world after breaking through to become Immortal Deities.

They, these geniuses carefully cultivated by the Five Great Powers, from the very beginning pursued becoming super experts among the Immortals, so while comprehending the Lower Origin Laws, they would also spend more time and energy comprehending the more difficult-to-comprehend Upper Origin Laws.

For example, Ross himself; if he had focused solely on comprehending the Flame Origin Law back then, he probably could have broken through to the Immortal Realm in less than a million years; the reason he stayed at the Domain Master level for millions of years was to take this opportunity to comprehend more of the Shi Shi Jian Ben Yuan Law.

And Lu Qingshan, in order to break through to become an Immortal, needed to wholeheartedly comprehend the Lightning Origin Law, daring not to waste much time on the Time Origin Law.

The gap between the two of them is not the gap between the Lightning Origin Law at the Tenth Floor of the Sky-Connecting Bridge and the Shi Shi Jian Ben Yuan Law at the Fourteenth Floor of the Sky-Connecting Bridge, but the gap between the Time Origin Law at the Seventh Floor of the Sky-Connecting Bridge and the Shi Shi Jian Ben Yuan Law at the Fourteenth Floor of the Sky-Connecting Bridge!

Therefore, for an Immortal Deity like Lu Qingshan, to improve his strength in the future, he must at least raise his comprehension of the Time Origin Law from the Seventh Floor of the Sky-Connecting Bridge to the Eleventh Floor.

And after breaking through to become an Immortal Deity, the difficulty of comprehending the Origin Laws is much greater than at the Domain Master stage, so even if they experience incredibly long ages, they恐怕 will find it hard to make even a little progress.

But what Ross did not know was that before Lu Qingshan broke through to become an Immortal, his comprehension of the Time Origin Law was only comparable to the Fifth Floor of the Sky-Connecting Bridge.

This means that in just a thousand years, Lu Qingshan raised his comprehension of the Time Origin Law by two realm levels, and even crossed the major hurdle from the Sixth Floor to the Seventh Floor!

Such a speed of progress even exceeds his own speed of progress back then, and the most important point is that Lu Qingshan has now broken through to the Immortal Realm!

Then, if Lu Qingshan were still at the Domain Master stage, how astonishing would his speed of progress be?
