On Earth, Qin Hao strolled along the streets, feeling incredibly relaxed.
His attire was simple: a short-sleeved shirt, long pants, and sneakers, coupled with his youthful face, made him look like a teenager walking home after school.
After leaving Primordial Chaos City, Qin Hao didn't linger long in the Star Palace and returned directly to Earth, where his life resumed its peaceful routine.
Qin Hao cherished this quiet life.
Most of his time was spent cultivating; even when he returned to Earth previously, his cultivation never stopped, and he always felt a sense of urgency.
It was only after this breakthrough that the urgency in his heart vanished, allowing him to more leisurely and freely perceive everything around him and enjoy life.
Although it had only been a few months, Qin Hao could clearly feel the change in his state of mind, and even his soul power and will had greatly improved.
This improvement delighted Qin Hao more than any increase in his cultivation.
Qin Hao's will and soul power had already reached the level of a Universe Lord, and with the blessing of the Visualization Method and the three hundred and sixty-five stars, Qin Hao was confident that no one in the Primordial Universe could harm his soul.
However, his growth had slowed down considerably, even feeling somewhat stagnant.
Unexpectedly, by abandoning cultivation and everything else on Earth and returning to a primitive way of life, his state of mind underwent a transformation.
Qin Hao had always paid close attention to his character.
In the 18 years after his birth, his cultivation improved slowly, but his study of ancient texts never relaxed, and he gradually formed his own understanding of the state of mind.
Initially, he was very mindful of the three realms of mental cultivation proposed by Hong in the original work.
The first realm: clearing the mind to see one's true nature, pointing directly to the original heart.
The second realm: unity of heaven and man, the heart of a newborn.
The third realm: boundless heart, embracing all.
The most representative examples were Luo Feng's first realm, Thunder God's second realm, and Hong's third realm, which could also be said to be the three directions of mental state under the entire world.
Initially, Qin Hao consciously studied these three paths, and his state of mind also underwent a good transformation.
However, as his cultivation deepened, Qin Hao's state of mind also changed, no longer following these three paths, yet without a clear direction.
In the past few days, he had, instead, gained some feeling, a state of mind of freedom and purity.
He even had some insight into 'If one can always be pure and tranquil, heaven and Earth will all return'.
Just as Qin Hao walked into a shop, bought a bottle of drink, and was drinking it while walking, a message from the Virtual Universe pulled him out of his relaxed state.
"I didn't expect it to arrive so quickly; it seems I'll be busy for a while again," he murmured before Qin Hao vanished from the spot.
Outside the Star Palace in the Milky Way Galaxy, a spaceship emerged from the Dark Universe.
"Is this the Star Palace? Has Master already become so powerful?" Rocas looked at the distant palace complex, his eyes filled with shock.
He was no longer a rookie.
In the several millennia with the Virtual Universe Corporation, he had grown from a Universe Rank to a World Lord Rank existence.
He had undergone tempering in various secret realms and had also gone to a Cosmic Country to complete mission points.
During his growth, he had met many powerful individuals, and there were quite a few Undying powerhouses among them.
Although Universe Lords were rare, he had seen many palaces of those Universe Lord Rank powerhouses who suppressed entire secret realms.
However, compared to the palace complex before him, the difference was not just a little bit.
The aura of the entire palace complex even reminded him of how he felt the first time he went to Primordial Chaos City.
Controlling the spaceship to quickly approach the palace complex, Rocas stopped the spaceship about a hundred miles outside the outermost palace and stepped out of the spaceship.
A beam of light quickly shot out from the palace in the distance and stopped in front of Rocas.
"Your Highness Rocas, please follow me!" After the light stopped, its massive size greatly surprised Rocas.
"It's actually a Monster Race Undying! And he calls Master 'Master', so he must be Master's servant."
Rocas was still very surprised; most Monster Race Undying were huge and very powerful, making them difficult to enslave.
He hadn't expected that even the one greeting him outside his Master's palace was a Monster Race Undying.
Moreover, he could feel the power of the Monster Race Undying before him.
As Qin Hao's disciple, although he had just broken through to the World Lord Rank, Rocas could already exert the strength of an Undying Army Lord Rank, and if his law comprehension improved further, he could even be comparable to a Marquis.
Although he was far behind Qin Hao, he was already among the top tier of human World Lords.
Following the Monster Race Undying, he entered the Star Palace.
The surrounding law aura suddenly became clearer, and the cosmic energy became even denser.
As he passed through palace after palace, Rocas was gradually astonished by everything he saw.
The laws became even clearer, no longer feeling like Primordial Chaos City, and the surrounding energy was even denser, tens of thousands of times that of the external energy.
The energy condensed into a thick mist, and as he breathed it in, he felt a wave of comfort.
Furthermore, along the way, Rocas saw powerful individuals one after another.
Monster Race, Insect Race, Automaton Race—if he hadn't been certain he was still in Human Territory, he would have even thought he had arrived at an alien race's lair.
Along the way, he saw over a hundred alien powerhouses, each of them extremely formidable.
And this was only a small part of the entire palace complex; the number of alien powerhouses in the entire Star Palace far exceeded those he had seen so far.
"What kind of powerhouse is my Master?" At this moment, Rocas couldn't help but re-evaluate his Master.
Choosing to become a disciple in Primordial Chaos City was more due to his astonishment at Master's comprehension of laws, and he chose to become a disciple, not expecting to succeed.
At that time, his Master was only a World Lord Rank powerhouse, but now, from what he had seen along the way, his strength definitely surpassed that of ordinary Universe Lords.
Enslaving such a large number of Undying powerhouses, and having such a vast palace and its modifications, were all things that the current Rocas could not comprehend.
Upon arriving outside the main hall, the leading Undying stopped and turned to walk towards the outer area.
Rocas stepped into the main hall; the entire hall was a thousand zhang high, with a very peculiar architectural style, yet every detail contained a unique charm.
Upon entering the main hall, Rocas could feel the clarity of the surrounding laws increase again, and the energy concentration rapidly improved.
The main hall was very spacious, with three hundred and sixty-five stars floating above it, each moving along an abstruse trajectory.
In the very center of the hall, on a massive throne, a figure sat on the throne, looking at Rocas as he walked in.
"Disciple greets Master!" Rocas quickly bowed respectfully.
