Chapter 60: Family, Entering the Chaotic City Again

"After the Infinite Divine Sea avatar appears, I should indeed change my previous plans!"

After familiarizing himself with his Infinite Divine Sea avatar, Lu Qingshan, sitting cross-legged in the quiet chamber, quickly calmed down and then began to consider his upcoming plans.

In Lu Qingshan's original plan, he intended to use the points in his hand to exploit the bugs in the laws of the Primal Universe's operation as many times as possible, and then, if the opportunity arose, nurture several more avatars.

But now, the appearance of the Infinite Divine Sea avatar has directly ruined this plan of his.

Although he still has quite a few points left in his hand, even if he exchanges all these points into precious resources for restoring divine power, I am afraid it will not be enough to expand the diameter of his Infinite Divine Sea avatar by much!

"The expansion of the Infinite Divine Sea avatar is destined to be an extremely long process!"

Lu Qingshan thought silently in his heart: "As for the points in my hand, I must reconsider how best to use them!"

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan quickly teleported the Infinite Divine Sea avatar into his Divine Kingdom, and then let another avatar constantly merge divine power into the body of the Infinite Divine Sea avatar within the Divine Kingdom to expand its diameter.

After finishing all this, Lu Qingshan's true body returned to the quiet chamber on Thunder Star to re-plan how to use the points in his hand.

"Raising auxiliary lifeforms and forging weapons and equipment is not something that needs to be rushed!"

Lu Qingshan thought silently in his heart: "My current work is still very safe; basically, it is very difficult to encounter any danger, and with avatars present, if I encounter a fatal danger, at worst I can just abandon one avatar!"

"What I need to do most now is to improve my strength as much as possible! Once my strength becomes powerful in the future, accumulating points will naturally become even easier!"

"In that case, going to the Chaotic City to cultivate in seclusion for a period of time is actually a good choice!"

Lu Qingshan planned silently in his heart: "Just right, I still have some time left in this vacation; I can enter the Primal Universe to cultivate for two hundred years. By then, besides being able to go and comprehend the Thunder Chaotic Stele, if I encounter any doubts, I can also go directly to ask my teacher!"

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan quickly stood up and then began to handle the various trivial matters before entering the Primal Universe to comprehend.

Half a year later, Thunder Star, at the entrance of the luxurious castle where the Lu family resides!

Now, over a million years have passed; although the Lu family has not continued to expand its power within the Lei Guang Hai star region, the Lu family has still gained 12 Boundary Lord Realm experts.

Among these 12 Boundary Lord Realm experts, Lu Qingshan's wife Karina, the sixth daughter Lu Wenyun, the eighth son Lu Hongguang, the seventh daughter Lu Wenxuan, and the only son of the seventh son Lu Hongyuan, Lu Zhiwu, all have ordinary talent and comprehension; they all broke through to the Boundary Lord Realm solely because of Lu Qingshan's great assistance.

To let these five people break through to the Boundary Lord Realm, Lu Qingshan spent a wealth of several thousand Hunyuan units!

This is only because he smoothly became an Immortal God and has a relatively generous hand; if he were still at the Boundary Lord Realm, he definitely would not have done this!

As for the other seven people, one is a talented junior of the Lu family, two are disciples Lu Qingshan previously accepted who broke through through their own efforts, and as for the other four, they are Boundary Lord Realm experts who actively surrendered to the Lu family's banner.

Of course, during this period, two of Lu Qingshan's Boundary Lord Realm disciples also perished while venturing into the Outer Battlefield.

Just like that, these newly broken-through 12 Boundary Lord Realm experts, plus the original Lu Hongwen and others, directly brought the number of Boundary Lord Realm experts in the Lu family to an astonishing 24 people!

And at this moment, these 24 Boundary Lord Realm experts have all gathered on Thunder Star to see off the departing Lu Qingshan.

Actually, this is not the first time Lu Qingshan has left Thunder Star; the reason so many people gathered this time is entirely because he is taking Lu Hongwen and a few others with him this time.

After all, Lu Qingshan still has relatively sufficient points in his hand, so this time he applied for six Primal Universe comprehension quotas in total.

Among them, the two-hundred-year Immortal God comprehension quota used by himself cost 100,000 points; the five Boundary Lord Realm comprehension quotas for the third son Lu Hongwen, the fifth son Lu Hongtu, the fourth daughter Lu Wenxiu, and the second disciple Blake and the fifth disciple Anna cost 150,000 points!

Lu Hongwen, Lu Hongtu, and Lu Wenxiu, these children, naturally need no further explanation; they are all the closest people to Lu Qingshan. Now that he has sufficient resources, naturally he must give them a chance;

As for the second disciple Blake and the fifth disciple Anna, it is because they have followed him for a very long time, and they have already received the acknowledgment of the Origin Laws, so there is a certain chance of breaking through after entering the Primal Universe, so Lu Qingshan also decided to give them both a chance!

At this moment, everyone around had gathered on Lu Hongwen and others standing behind Lu Qingshan.

Among them, Karina and Lu Wenyun and a few others who had just broken through to the Boundary Lord Realm not long ago were fine, because Lu Qingshan had previously promised that after they accumulated for a while at the Boundary Lord Realm stage, he would also exchange a chance for them to enter the Primal Universe for comprehension;

But the gaze of the other Boundary Lord Realm experts looking at Lu Hongwen and others was much more complex!

You must know, many of them were disciples Lu Qingshan carefully selected back then; in terms of talent and comprehension, they were much stronger than Lu Hongwen and others, but this time, except for Blake and Anna who received the acknowledgment of the Origin Laws, no one else received a chance to enter the Primal Universe for comprehension!

However, although they were envious, they did not harbor any dissatisfaction towards Lu Qingshan in their hearts.

After all, even if it were them, if they had resources in hand, the first thing they would consider would be the people closest to them.

Moreover, after Lu Qingshan became an Immortal God sitting high above, he still seriously guided their cultivation; what more could they be dissatisfied with?

"Karina!"

Lu Qingshan looked at his wife Karina: "After I leave with the third son and the others this time, I will leave all the family matters to you! If you encounter anything difficult to solve, you can go ask Lei Guang Laozu for help!"

"Brother Qingshan, you can rest assured; I will definitely help you take good care of the family!" Karina responded quickly.

Karina can be said to be the luckiest of Lu Qingshan's six wives; not only did her status increase greatly because Lu Qingshan broke through to become an Immortal God, but she was also raised to the Boundary Lord Realm by Lu Qingshan using a large amount of precious resources, and even received a promise of a future opportunity to enter the Primal Universe for comprehension!

You must know, when she chose to marry Lu Qingshan back then, what she thought of most was just like Lu Qingshan's previous wives, being raised to the Domain Lord Realm by Lu Qingshan through resources!

After instructing his wife, Lu Qingshan turned his head to look at Lu Wenyun and a few others: "You all must also work hard to cultivate; otherwise, even if you have a chance to enter the Primal Universe in the future, it will be very difficult to break through to become Immortals!"

"Father (Grandfather), you can rest assured!"

Lu Wenyun and others quickly promised: "We will definitely cultivate seriously!"

"And you all must absolutely not give up cultivation!"

Lu Qingshan looked again at his group of disciples: "I promise here that as long as anyone among you can receive the acknowledgment of the Origin Laws before five million years of age, I will grant them a chance to go to the Primal Universe for comprehension!"

"Yes, Teacher!" The group of disciples immediately bowed respectfully.

"Alright, the time is about right; I should leave now!"

As soon as the words fell, Lu Qingshan looked directly at the endless void ahead, and a strong aura of Thunder Laws rippled over his entire body.

Quickly, blindingly bright light lit up from Lu Qingshan, instantly spreading out, completely enveloping himself and Lu Hongwen and others behind him.

Buzz!

Accompanied by a slight spatial fluctuation, Lu Qingshan and others instantly entered Lu Qingshan's Divine Kingdom along a beam channel.

Actually, under normal circumstances, Immortal Gods like Lu Qingshan rarely travel via Divine Kingdom teleportation.

However, now that Lu Qingshan has relatively sufficient resources in hand, plus he wants to catch a spaceship heading to the Primal Universe recently, he used the very resource-consuming Divine Kingdom teleportation.

Inside Lu Qingshan's Divine Kingdom.

"Father!" Lu Hongwen, following behind Lu Qingshan, looked at the beautiful scenery of the Divine Kingdom all around and couldn't help but say: "Is this your Divine Kingdom?"

"Mm!" Lu Qingshan nodded slightly.

And Lu Hongwen said again: "Father, I heard that many Immortal Gods build a fixed teleportation channel between their hometown and their Divine Kingdom; I wonder what your thoughts are on this?"

"Let's talk about these things later!"

Lu Qingshan waved his hand and said: "What you need to do right now is quickly adjust your mindset and thoroughly cultivate within the Initial Universe. As for other matters, don't worry about them for now!"

"Yes, Father!" Lu Hongwen quickly replied respectfully.

"Alright, we're heading to the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Corporation now!"

No sooner had he spoken than Lu Qingshan's entire body once again radiated mysterious law-like energy, and the temple above his divine realm began emitting boundless light, quickly coalescing into a beam of radiance.

Lu Qingshan waved his hand, and everyone was instantly enveloped by the beam of light, vanishing once more from within the divine realm!

…

On a barren planet tens of light-years beyond the Virtual Universe Corporation's headquarters, the originally lifeless surface suddenly erupted in brilliant light, and several figures appeared out of thin air—Lu Qingshan and the others, having teleported via the divine realm.

"We're now on a mineral planet sixty-nine light-years from the Virtual Universe Corporation's headquarters!"

Lu Qingshan waved his hand, and Blood Red No. 3 instantly materialized before them: "Everyone, get on the ship!"

Hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Lu Hongwen and the others quickly followed him into the spaceship's lounge.

After Blood Red No. 3 performed two consecutive space jumps, they could see through the exterior simulation the Virtual Universe Corporation's universal headquarters nestled within a dreamlike starfield!

Blood Red No. 3 was, after all, an official spaceship registered with the Virtual Universe Corporation's transportation division, so it soon landed without obstruction on the division's exclusive hangar pad.

Whoosh!

The hatch opened, and Lu Qingshan flew out with Lu Hongwen and the others.

At that moment, a stunningly beautiful young girl, seeing Lu Qingshan appear, quickly approached: "Lu Qingshan, you've finally arrived!"

This stunning girl was Karista, one of the few who had entered the Initial Universe alongside Lu Qingshan and later successfully broke through to become an Immortal Lord.

But Karista was the granddisciple of Lord Heifeng, head of the transportation division, so she had remained by Lord Heifeng's side from the start, responsible for guiding cultivators to the Initial Universe.

It was through Karista's connection that Lu Qingshan secured a priority slot—otherwise, he would have had to wait over a decade to bring Lu Hongwen and the others into the Initial Universe.

"Karista!" Lu Qingshan greeted her with a smile: "I'm not late, am I?"

"Just in time!"

Karista smiled: "Grandmaster's ship won't depart for the Initial Universe until two days from now!"

"Good!"

Seeing the ship wouldn't leave for two days, Lu Qingshan exhaled in relief, then pointed to Karista and introduced her to Lu Hongwen and the others: "This is my friend within the Virtual Universe Corporation—Karista!"

"Greetings, Lord Karista!" Lu Hongwen and the others, having been forewarned by Lu Qingshan, immediately bowed respectfully.

"Hmm."

Karista nodded slightly, then privately whispered to Lu Qingshan: "Lu Qingshan, are these the talented Lord-level successors you mentioned who bought slots for Initial Universe cultivation?"

"That's right!" Lu Qingshan nodded slightly in reply.

"This…"

Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's answer, Karista was momentarily speechless.

After a brief silence, she continued whispering: "Lu Qingshan, I know you just cleared the Heavenly Bridge's twelfth level and earned a lot of points—but even with all those points, you can't waste them like this!"

"The two who received recognition from the Primordial Laws are fine, but the other three won't gain much even if they enter the Chaos City—your points are being utterly wasted!"

Clearly, Karista was unaware that Lu Qingshan had cleared the Seventeenth Level of the Illusion Sea, so she assumed he had spent all his points from clearing the Heavenly Bridge's twelfth level to secure Initial Universe slots for Lu Hongwen and the others.

"Let's see how fate treats them!"

Sensing Karista's sincerity, Lu Qingshan could only smile and whisper back: "The two who received Primordial Law recognition are my disciples who've stood by me for years—I now have the ability, so I must give them this chance. As for the other three, they're my sons and daughter—I must give them this chance too!"

"This…"

Hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Karista fell silent.

Though she thought his actions were overly sentimental, their friendship was not deep enough for her to press further on such a matter.

After a few more casual words, Karista quickly led Lu Qingshan and the others into the grand hall of a spaceship over ten thousand meters in diameter.

"Alright, everyone, wait here for now!"

Karista continued: "When the time comes, Grandmaster will come to lead us to the Initial Universe!"

…

Two days later, Lord Heifeng appeared on schedule inside the spaceship and led Lu Qingshan's group toward the Initial Universe.

"Boom—"

After a shift in spacetime, the spaceship swiftly entered the boundless chaos of the Initial Universe, and Lord Heifeng promptly activated the exterior simulation.

Even though Lu Hongwen and the others had already heard of the Initial Universe's wonders from Lu Qingshan, they now gazed curiously at everything around them.

Soon, the ship halted above the Chaos City.

Whoosh!

The hatch opened, and warriors from countless human races swiftly flew out.

As they appeared above the Chaos City, a figure clad in black robes swiftly flew over from afar.

"Greetings, everyone. I am the Chaos City's guide. Those familiar with its rules may proceed freely; newcomers, follow me!" the black-robed figure said with a smile.

"Father! Teacher!" Lu Hongwen and the others immediately turned to Lu Qingshan.

"Follow the guide—he'll show you the rules of the Chaos City!" Lu Qingshan quickly instructed.

"Yes!" Lu Hongwen and the others nodded and, along with the others, followed the guide away.

…

After Lu Hongwen and the others departed, Lu Qingshan looked down at the Chaos City shrouded in endless chaotic currents.

Over a million years had passed, yet this ancient city seemed unchanged.

Hundreds of thousands of fierce cultivators sat cross-legged on the rooftops of their meditation dwellings, radiating immense energy—most were stronger than Immortal Gods.

"Now, I'll cultivate here in the Chaos City for a while."

Lu Qingshan swiftly descended, landing on the silent street: "But before I begin, I need a suitable dwelling—why not return to the place I stayed before?"

The last time he came to this Chaos City to cultivate, Lu Qingshan had mastered the complete Law of Thunder's Origin in one fell swoop, so he was still quite nostalgic for that experience!

A moment later, Lu Qingshan appeared in the sky above the rooftop of his old dwelling, but that spot had already been occupied by a little Universe-level fellow.

"A Universe-level can already come to this Primordial Universe to cultivate!"

Lu Qingshan cast an interested glance at the other party: "Good luck to you, little fellow!"

Lu Qingshan did not disturb the other's comprehension, after all that dwelling was merely a place for Lu Qingshan to reminisce about the past, and had no other function in itself.

In the end, Lu Qingshan still chose a cultivation dwelling not far from the residence of his teacher Lei Huanwang.

Walking to the door of the pale-white cultivation dwelling, Lu Qingshan gently placed his palm on it.

"Beep!"

The sensing system activated, the dwelling's great door began to gradually change color, and after a moment turned deep grey, which also signified that Lu Qingshan had become the master of this cultivation dwelling.
