"Why isn't this guy dead yet!"
A rock-like creature from the Northern Frontier Alliance growled softly.
"This message must be sent back as soon as possible. The Human King of the Sky has broken through to the Immortal realm, and the threat level needs to be reassessed!"
"We must not let him grow up, otherwise he will become a great enemy of our clan in the future!"
Lu Ming seemed oblivious to these overt and covert stares and comments.
No one is allowed to enter the Heritage Fountain.
Why bother with the babbling of ants?
The news of Lu Ming's breakthrough to immortality spread like wildfire throughout the major powers of the universe.
In the initial universe's Chaos City, a hint of relief flashed in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord, but then his expression turned solemn: "The little guy has finally broken through, but... trouble is also on its way."
Just as the Lord of Chaos City had predicted, an emergency meeting regarding Lu Ming was being held in the virtual worlds of the Zerg, Demon, and Mechanical races, among other top-tier races.
On that beautiful floating island in the Zerg virtual world.
One after another, the stunningly beautiful Zerg queens gathered in front of the wooden palace, exchanging thoughts with each other.
"The Human King of Burning Sky has broken through to the Immortal Realm. According to the intelligence sent back from Purple Thorn Island, he just broke through, and his divine power is already no less than that of a Universe Venerable!"
"He could easily kill a King when he was a Realm Lord, and now that he's broken through to Immortality, we absolutely cannot let him continue to grow stronger!"
"We must take immediate action!"
Inside the palace, a stunningly beautiful being shrouded in a hazy, colorful mist looked down at a revered alien venerable standing respectfully below.
"Jueguang, this task is entrusted to you."
The pleasant sound echoed in the hall.
"Yes, Lord of the Universe."
Venerable Jueguang bowed in response, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes beneath the mask.
"Remember, the first choice is soul control, and the second choice is to kill. This Burning Sky King has a special fate. The price of reversing time and space to revive him is probably comparable to that of a cosmic overlord. If we can control his soul, we can eliminate future troubles forever."
"My subordinate understands."
The virtual world of the demon race, in the endless starry sky.
A gigantic phantom of a celestial wolf roared, "Kill him! This human must be killed!"
"He has already broken through to immortality. If given more time, even becoming a Venerable will not be his final destination!"
"Let that 'Rock Giant Venerable' from the Northern Frontier Alliance take action. Promise him that once it's done, we'll ask the Lord of the Universe to reverse time and resurrect him!"
Inside the cold, metallic hall of the Machine Race's virtual world.
Countless data streams flickered, eventually converging into a cold, hard resolution:
"Target threat level raised to the highest level."
"Initiate the 'Purge Plan'."
“Authorization to use Venerable Hunwu”.
While the various alien races were busily preparing their assassination plans, Lu Ming remained unusually calm on Zijing Island.
After receiving the inheritance, he returned directly to his residence and began to seclude himself to digest what he had gained.
"The third level of the Path of the Beast God has taken another big step forward."
In the quiet room, Lu Ming sat cross-legged.
He could feel himself undergoing a transformative change. The leap from Realm Lord to Immortal was a leap in the level of life, but his understanding of the laws was not as clear as when he was a Realm Lord.
Cultivation will take more time.
However, his talent also transformed after his breakthrough.
The cultivation speed of perfect genes is now countless times faster than it was a hundred times before.
Moreover, since lifespan is now virtually unlimited, spending a little more time won't hurt.
"However, those alien races probably won't let me cultivate in peace."
Lu Ming's lips curled into a cold smile.
Although he was in seclusion, he was not entirely unaware of the undercurrents on Zijing Island.
"Come on, if you're not afraid of dying, then come on."
A storm is brewing.
But the eye of the storm was unusually calm.
On Zijing Island, palaces of various races' inheritors stand one after another. Several thousand kilometers away from Lu Ming's residence, on the top floor of an ancient mansion that resembles a withered tree, stands a masked alien venerable.
The alliance has ordered that I remain here to monitor the situation, and that this information must not be leaked.
Venerable Jueguang transmitted his voice to the successor of the title of King beside him.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The inheritor responded respectfully.
"Go."
Venerable Jueguang nodded slightly.
After the inheritor left, only Venerable Jueguang remained on the top floor.
He sat cross-legged, his gaze passing over the railing and fixed on the open space in front of Lu Ming's mansion in the distance.
"The Zerg Alliance has nearly 10,000 inheritors on Purple Thorn Island, and dozens of them can directly observe the Burning Sky King's Mansion from their residences."
Venerable Jueguang pondered silently.
"This is the only way to monitor him. As long as he steps out of the mansion, he won't escape my sight."
"Having just broken through to immortality, he should be frequently visiting the Land of Inheritance."
Chapter 87 is out, kill him! So fast, he dodged it!
Venerable Jueguang stared intently.
He remembered Lu Ming's performance; he had so many Glory Points.
This guy can't stand staying put and not coming to receive the inheritance.
Meanwhile, on the top floor of another pyramid-shaped metal mansion.
A mechanical race venerable, "Venerable Wu," whose entire body was covered in dark red metal and exuded a cold aura, stood quietly.
His electronic eyes flashed continuously, capturing every detail of Lu Ming's mansion in the distance.
"Target threat level: highest. Elimination priority: first."
A cold, mechanical sound echoed within his core processor.
In a mountain-shaped mansion closer to Lu Ming's residence, the massive rock body of the Northern Frontier Alliance's "Rock Giant Venerable" was almost integrated with the mansion.
His jewel-like eyes gleamed with a fierce light.
"The demon race promised to ask the Lord of the Universe to reverse time and resurrect me afterwards... and there are many other benefits."
The Rock Giant Venerable thought to himself.
"But if King Burning Sky could kill a King when he was a Realm Lord, now that he has broken through to Immortality, his strength is probably even more terrifying. Killing him instantly may not be easy."
The three cosmic venerables dispatched by the three peak clans each chose the best surveillance positions, bringing all directions of Lu Ming's residence under their control.
Besides them, other powerful figures from various forces were also observing from the shadows.
These forces, though not intending to get involved, wouldn't mind watching a good show.
They had long anticipated that with the emergence of a peerless genius like the Burning Sky King among the human race, the three neighboring top races would never sit idly by and watch him grow.
"It all comes down to who's more ruthless."
A foreign venerable being, observing from a distant mansion, murmured to himself.
Time passed slowly while waiting.
One hour, two hours, three hours...
The cosmic venerables hidden in various places all possess exceptional patience. For beings of their stature, secluded cultivation is measured in tens of thousands of years, so waiting for a mere few days is nothing.
"Having just broken through to immortality, he should be eager to prove his strength."
Venerable Jueguang pondered this in his heart.
"They'll probably come out in a little while."
However, one day, two days, three days passed...
One year, two years, three years...
Lu Ming's residence remained quiet and undisturbed.
"Does this King of Burning Sky intend to remain holed up in his mansion forever?"
The Rock Giant Venerable shifted his massive body somewhat irritably.
"He has to go and receive the inheritance, right? To receive the inheritance, he must go to the inheritance site in front of the island lord's palace, which means he will definitely have to leave the mansion."
The other venerable ones who were monitoring the situation were also puzzled.
Normally, newly powerful individuals are eager to verify their strength and frequently travel to the inheritance grounds to receive higher-level inheritances.
However, contrary to his usual behavior, King Burning Sky secluded himself in seclusion.
What they didn't know was that Lu Ming, inside the mansion, was fully aware of everything.
"Three cosmic venerables... they really think highly of me."
In the quiet room, Lu Ming slowly opened his eyes, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
He had already discovered this through some covert reconnaissance methods left outside the area.
"Alright, let them wait."
