yielded tremendous results.

Chapter 154 yielded tremendous results.

One after another, treasures shimmering with brilliant light of laws flew in front of him, even Li Che was slightly taken aback.

With a wave of his hand, he collected these treasures and quickly learned their true nature.

The top-tier treasure weapon "Sinking Ice", the top-tier treasure armor "Flowing Light Annihilation Armor", the top-tier domain-type treasure "Golden Horn Lake", and the distant top-tier palace-type treasure "Northern Prison" are the many top-tier treasures used by the Lord of Northern Prison when he roamed the universe.

Among them, the weapons, armor, and palaces were all treasures personally crafted by the Mountain-Sitting Guest, each of which can be considered the finest among top-tier treasures and is extremely valuable.

The Golden Horn Lake, a top-tier treasure, was obtained by the Lord of the Northern Prison after he killed the Golden Horn Lord's clone. Among top-tier treasures, it can only be considered quite ordinary.

After all, when the Lord of the Northern Prison destroyed the Golden Horn Lord's clone, it was still in the relatively early stage of the primordial universe. At that time, the Golden Horn Lord was only a third-order universe lord, and it was already very rare for him to possess a top-level domain treasure.

By integrating the armor and domain into his body and holding the supreme weapon in his hand, Li Che could deeply feel the sensation of his strength increasing dramatically.

Top-tier treasures—this is already considered the configuration of universe lords, especially domain-type treasures and palace-type treasures. There are very few universe lords who have these two types of top-tier treasure components.

In particular, this top-tier weapon, "Sinking Ice," is a long staff, which perfectly suits Li Che's usual fighting habits.

"Many years ago, one of my disciples also held this identity, but he was already the Lord of the Universe when he obtained it. At that time, his direct combat power was only slightly stronger than yours."

As the mountain dweller watched Li Che gradually become familiar with these treasures, he seemed to recall his son's past, and his voice inevitably carried a hint of regret.

"Is it Emperor Yan? I checked the period of activity of the Lord of the Northern Prison, and it was around the time when Emperor Yan became the Lord of the Universe." Li Che asked directly.

In the primordial universe, it was no secret that the Mountain-Sitting Guest and the Flame Emperor were suspected to have a close relationship. Since he had obtained the identity of the Lord of the Northern Prison, it was not far-fetched for him to guess that the Flame Emperor was the previous Lord of the Northern Prison.

"Yes, that's him."

Upon hearing this, the Mountain-Sitting Guest first glanced at Li Che, then sighed and nodded, saying, "The Flame Emperor is the strongest being to emerge from the Flame God Clan, which I nurtured, throughout countless ages. He inherited everything from this identity, yet he has left me utterly disappointed."

"During his time as a Universe Venerable, I had considered passing on the identity of the Lord of the Northern Prison to him, but despite my best efforts, he still failed to create the ultimate secret technique of the Universe Lord at the Universe Venerable level. He only possessed the peak secret technique of the Universe Lord, which was simply insufficient to fight against other Universe Lords."

"Only after he became the Lord of the Universe and successfully created the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe did I pass on the 'Lord of the Northern Prison' to him."

"But without using the Fiery Divine Halberd I gave him, his combat power is far too mediocre. In billions of years, he still hasn't managed to kill a Lord of the Universe, which is truly disappointing. Therefore, I simply reclaimed the title of Lord of the Northern Prison."

Although the voice of this strongest being in the universe was calm, the deep disappointment he expressed was undisguised.

After all, he had spent countless eons transforming, nurturing, and waiting for his disciple, who specialized in divine bodies. Yet, his actual combat performance was only that of a regular universe lord. This caused a significant psychological letdown for the Mountain Dweller.

Upon hearing this news, Li Che nodded slightly.

Emperor Yan's signature weapon was his supreme treasure weapon, the Flame God Halberd, which was a true masterpiece among supreme treasures, and few weapons below the level of supreme treasure could compare to it.

However, during his time as the "Lord of the Northern Prison," he could not possibly use that famous battle halberd. After all, it was a top-tier treasure, and it was too famous. Even if he disguised it, it would be easy for others to guess its identity.

Therefore, Emperor Yan had no choice but to use the top-tier treasure weapon, the Ice Sinking Blade. However, this weapon was far inferior to the Flame God Halberd, causing Emperor Yan's combat power to drop significantly.

Based on the level of Yan Di's divine body with ten thousand times the genetic level and the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe, his combat power when using the supreme weapon Chen Bing is probably only that of a fairly standard third-tier Lord of the Universe.

In fact, if Li Che were to use the supreme weapon, Chenbing, his direct combat power would be slightly weaker than that of Yan Di.

But he was, after all, merely a cosmic venerable one, and the degree of importance that the Mountain-Sitting Guest placed on him was incomparable to that of the Flame Emperor.

"Your Excellency, are you planning to send me out to roam the Northern Prison as its Lord right now?" Li Che asked, staring at the Mountain Guest.

At this stage, even if he were to unleash all his treasures at full power, he would probably only be a top-tier second-order cultivator. However, he couldn't withstand the numerous consequences caused by the sins committed by the Lord of the Northern Prison.

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing this, the Mountain-Sitting Guest laughed, "No rush, I'm just giving you an identity to protect you in advance. By using the identity of the Lord of the Northern Prison, you can use the Northern Prison. In the primordial universe, no one can kill you."

"As for my request of you, it is to ensure that the title of 'Lord of the Northern Prison' resounds throughout the universe once again within one hundred million years. If you fail to do so, I will also revoke this title."

"Famous throughout the universe?"

Li Che frowned; this request was rather abstract.

"That depends on your ability to fight. As long as you can demonstrate sufficient combat power and make a name for yourself, you will be qualified."

The Mountain-Sitting Guest casually said, "My promise to train disciples also applies to you. If you, a Universe Venerable, completely kill a Universe Lord or ten top Universe Overlords, you can provide the materials, and I will forge a supreme treasure for you free of charge."

"Once you become the master of the universe, this requirement will increase tenfold, but it will still remain valid."

This request impressed Li Che.

No wonder the Mountain Dweller and the Flame Emperor have become almost strangers over the years; after all, the Flame Emperor is far from meeting the Mountain Dweller's requirements.

A Universe Lord must kill 10 Universe Lords of the same level to exchange for a single top-tier treasure. I wonder how many Yan Di has achieved at this stage... "Regarding the 'Savage Amber Refining Chapter,' I promised to give you two top-tier treasures. I'm keeping my promise; you can choose whichever you like. Also, you need to take this treasure that shields the virtual universe with you."

The hermit, oblivious to Li Che's thoughts, tossed him a heavy metal book and a token before continuing, "When I train disciples and successors, I often prepare treasures for them. Your situation is a bit special, so I haven't prepared anything for you."

"After that, I will go to the Cosmic Sea to find a place where the most powerful treasure is born, so that you can go and compete for it in the future. I will help you then. As for whether the most powerful treasure is suitable for you and whether you can successfully recognize it as your master, that will depend on your ability."

This attitude made Li Che sigh.

As expected of His Majesty the Divine King of the Former Jin Dynasty, Lao Zuo is indeed meticulous in his work.

Having finished explaining everything, the Mountain-Sitting Guest turned around and gazed at this harsh yet rich cosmic secret realm, where many special life forms were being nurtured: "Once, the Lord of the Northern Prison also had some special life forms under his command, including some at the level of Cosmic Venerables. However, due to the Flame Emperor, those special life forms have all been taken under my command, so I can no longer have them serve you."

"In the future, some special life forms will be born in this Northern Prison Secret Realm. I hope you can protect them, even if you bring them into your Hong Alliance."

Li Che nodded to indicate that he understood.

Sheltering some special lives that haven't even been born yet? That's a small matter to him.

What truly concerned him was the black book that contained numerous top-tier treasures.

The book may seem unremarkable, but it contains information on over a hundred top-tier treasures, including many top-tier domain and palace-level treasures.

After all, he was once a great god-king who made civilization through blacksmithing and weapon forging. Heaven knows how many treasures this old guy has forged in the primordial universe over the years.
