Chapter 048: The Past
You should know that Lu Qingshan is destined to achieve great things later in life!
With the blessing of being destined for greatness late in life, the longer he has time, the more terrifying his comprehension will become.
His cultivation speed has already far surpassed Terence's, not to mention what it will be like in the future.
For Terence, the time when he and Lu Qingshan joined Tianzhu Mountain as first-level elites was when the gap between them was the smallest.
After that, as time went on, the gap between him and Lu Qingshan only widened!
"After this ranking update, I believe Terrence will no longer consider me a rival!"
After having this thought in mind, Lu Qingshan quickly walked to the designated area, put on the consciousness-sensing helmet, and then teleported himself directly into the space of the tenth floor of the Trial Tower.
The opponents on this level are one hundred Celestial Star Level 1 Azure Sky Demon Apes. Lu Qingshan's best result in this level before was only killing five Azure Sky Demon Apes.
But now that he has entered the third level of the Earth Domain, he already has enough strength to deal with these hundred Celestial Star Level 1 Azure Sky Demon Apes.
After spending about fifteen minutes on the tenth floor of the Trial Tower, Lu Qingshan finally killed the last Azure Sky Demon Ape with the Zhenyue Long Staff, successfully passing the tenth floor of the Trial Tower!
After that, Lu Qingshan was naturally teleported into the eleventh floor of the Trial Tower.
The opponent on the eleventh floor of the Trial Tower is one hundred first-tier, eternal star-level Ziqian Thousand Serpents. Each of the Ziqian Thousand Serpents is much stronger than the Azure Sky Demon Ape on the previous floor. Even though Lu Qingshan has entered the third level of the Earth Domain, he still feels great pressure when facing so many Ziqian Thousand Serpents.
In the end, Lu Qingshan only managed to kill 27 Ziqian Wanshe before he perished under the siege of the remaining Ziqian Wanshe and was then kicked out of the trial space.
At this moment, his Trial Tower level also became 11.2!
"11.2?"
After being kicked out of the Trial Tower, Lu Qingshan finally smiled upon learning his results: "These Trial Tower results are at least in the top five among Level 1 elites!"
Fifty years ago, only three of the top-tier elites were able to pass the tenth floor of the Trial Tower;
However, in the past fifty years, one of the first-level elites, a super genius who had cultivated for nearly two thousand years, entered the third level of the domain and successfully passed the tenth level of the Trial Tower!
Apart from them, no one else has been able to pass the tenth floor of the Trial Tower.
That is why, after Lu Qingshan passed the tenth level of the Trial Tower, his Trial Tower score alone was at least fifth place.
Even though the overall ranking is based on a combination of Trial Tower results and Adventure Mission results, Trial Tower results have a larger weight, so Lu Qingshan should at least be able to break into the top ten overall.
"Now that we've broken into the top ten, we can finally spend some time building up our strength!"
At this moment, Lu Qingshan was secretly planning: "With the help of the Evolution Elixir, I only need a few decades to cultivate to the ninth level of the Eternal Star!"
Even if it took decades, Lu Qingshan still felt it was somewhat of a waste.
After all, the truly top geniuses in the universe are all able to use nutrient tanks to assist in the evolution of their physical attributes.
He uses the Evolution Elixir for cultivation, which requires him to spend a lot of time absorbing the cosmic energy contained within it to improve his physical fitness. During this time, he cannot do anything else.
However, if you soak in a nutrient pod, the incomparably precious nutrient solution will actively improve the user's physical qualities without requiring the user to spend any time at all. Even while soaking in the nutrient pod, the user's consciousness can still connect to the virtual space.
Of course, given the power of Tianzhu Mountain, it would be quite generous of them to provide evolution elixir for free to cultivate a star-level genius, so Lu Qingshan naturally wouldn't ask for more.
Anyway, he will have plenty of time to cultivate in the future, so even spending some time accumulating energy is worthwhile.
As various thoughts flashed through his mind, Lu Qingshan quickly walked out of the Trial Tower.
When he arrived at the entrance of the Trial Tower, a number of Level 1 elites had already gathered there, and many of them were even gathered around Terence, who had just entered the second level of the Domain.
Seeing this, Lu Qingshan didn't pay too much attention to it. Instead, he quickly walked over to the werewolf genius, Bevis, and greeted him with a smile, "Brother Bevis!"
During the period when Lu Qingshan first entered Tianzhu Mountain, he and Vivis had a pretty good relationship;
However, Lu Qingshan suddenly entered the second level of the domain, and because of the large difference in ranking, Bivis's contact with Lu Qingshan became less frequent.
Later, Lu Qingshan took the initiative to communicate with Bivis a few times, and only then did the other party start to interact with Lu Qingshan as before.
However, Lu Qingshan's breakthrough also had a motivating effect on Bevis. Originally, Bevis's ranking was around 110th, which was not very low, but not far off either.
However, in the past fifty years, Bivis has worked much harder in his training than before, and now his overall ranking has reached around ninety.
The ranking has improved so much in such a short time, which is quite impressive!
"Brother Aoyama!"
When he saw Lu Qingshan come over to greet him, Bevis was very happy.
After the two chatted for a while, Bevis noticed that Lu Qingshan's gaze was fixed on Terence's direction, and quickly comforted him, "Brother Qingshan, don't be too upset!"
"Even if Terence surpasses you in the overall rankings, he only has the advantage of being a psychic!"
"You'll be decades ahead of him in reaching the second level of the Domain, and you'll definitely be able to reach the third level of the Domain even sooner than him!"
"I see!"
Knowing that Bevis had clearly misunderstood, Lu Qingshan didn't explain anything, but simply nodded slightly in response.
And so, time passed by, minute by minute.
Before long, the rankings on the blue stone tablet in front of everyone changed.
NO.1: Parich (Level 9 Spiritual Master, Star-Level);
NO.2: Liu Guangyuan (Level 9 Spiritual Master, Star-Level);
NO.3: Bonas (Ninth-tier martial artist of the Constant Star level)
……
Looking at this year's rankings update, the first thing everyone checked wasn't even their own ranking, but rather where Terrence was ranked.
NO.9: Terence (Level 7 Spiritual Master, Star-Level)!
But after seeing Terrence's ranking, the crowd was not as excited as expected; instead, they all froze in place.
Because above Terrence's ranking, they saw a name that shouldn't have been there—
NO.6: Lu Qingshan (Second-tier martial artist of the Eternal Star level)!
