Before the Original Star opened, something else pulled Qin Hao out of his cultivation state. For Qin Hao now, cultivation had become a daily routine. However, short-term cultivation couldn't bring about major breakthroughs; more often, it required the accumulation of continuous effort.
Through gradual accumulation, one could achieve a slow but steady increase in strength. This was a situation that would inevitably be faced once strength reached a certain stage; it was just that Qin Hao faced this situation later and at a higher level of strength.
Having achieved in tens of thousands of years what others couldn't in countless epochs—the growth of strength and accumulation of comprehension—it was now too difficult for Qin Hao to rapidly improve his strength within the Primordial Universe. Perhaps only by encountering a special opportunity in the Universe Sea or entering a state of enlightenment could he accelerate his strength improvement.
Therefore, for Qin Hao, his current cultivation was more about passing his endless years, a habit, and a tireless pursuit of the Dao.
This time, he awoke from his cultivation state because of Luo Feng's arrival. Besides Luo Feng, Hong and Thunder God also came to the Star Palace.
Qin Hao had already met Hong once when he was in the Zhouguang Universe Country. For the past tens of thousands of years, Hong had also been cultivating in the Zhouguang Universe Country, mostly in secret realms, and a small part on the planet where the Zouguang Country Lord resided.
Although Hong had not yet become Undying, his strength was already no weaker than some Marquis-level Immortals, and his powerful influence made him one of the strongest among the many World Lords in the Primordial Universe.
Furthermore, under the guidance of the Zouguang Country Lord, Hong also embarked on the path of Time Law fusion, beginning the fusion of two laws, and his cultivation progressed very rapidly.
As for Thunder God, since they parted ways in Primordial Chaos City, Qin Hao and Thunder God had not met in reality, only in the Virtual Universe. In the past tens of thousands of years, Thunder God's cultivation progress had also been very fast, not much weaker than Hong, and he had a deep comprehension of both Thunder Law and Time Law.
The few people who emerged from Earth back then had now embarked on their own paths, and their strength had greatly improved, already beginning to stand out among the many geniuses of the human race.
Although Thunder God and Hong had not fully matured yet, with the enhancement of their mental fortitude, their cultivation speed continued to accelerate. Compared to most humans who find cultivation increasingly difficult after their cultivation hits a bottleneck, Hong and Thunder God have not encountered any major bottlenecks so far.
When they were on Earth, they were trapped in a shallow pond for too long. However, even so, the two of them started from nothing, exploring little by little, and became Planetary Level powerhouses. Hong even comprehended a domain. That was a comprehension that only Territory Lord Rank powerhouses could possess; even Astral Rank powerhouses with comprehension were geniuses among geniuses.
Hong was the one who comprehended his domain without any assistance. Thunder God's situation was almost the same.
To be able to cultivate so quickly on a native planet, their comprehension, mental fortitude, and willpower all far surpassed those of other powerhouses. After entering the universe, both of them entered the Virtual Universe Corporation, then Primordial Chaos City, obtaining a clearer path and more resources for cultivation.
Although their current growth speed cannot compare to Qin Hao and Luo Feng, who instantly became powerhouses in the universe, their current cultivation speed has already surpassed the geniuses of the Genius Battle at the same rank back then. Even Rong Jun and Bolan cannot compare to them.
Now, with Hong, Thunder God, and Luo Feng appearing in the Star Palace, Qin Hao was very puzzled as to how the Three God Ancestors had come together.
Luo Feng had become Undying, and after stabilizing for a period, he should have gone to the Yan God Clan to find Yan Emperor and obtain the Jie Jia. Now, coming here with Thunder God and Hong, he didn't know why.
Outside the Star Palace, Luo Feng stepped into the Star Palace area, followed closely by Hong and Thunder God. After the Star Palace expanded, the entire area became much wider, and the entry requirements for the outer areas were greatly reduced.
As a high-ranking member of the Virtual Universe Corporation and Qin Hao's junior brother, Luo Feng naturally had the authority to enter the Star Palace. Bringing Hong and Thunder God into the Star Palace area, they naturally did not encounter any obstruction.
“Qin Hao has really struck it rich! All this splendor and magnificence actually belongs to Qin Hao,” Thunder God exclaimed, looking around the Star Palace.
“The rich cosmic energy and clear laws here are no worse than Primordial Chaos City. I never thought the Milky Way Galaxy would have such a cultivation holy land. This is like moving a holy land right to your doorstep!” Thunder God continued to marvel, muttering endlessly.
Coming from the Earth era, they deeply understood the immense resources such a cultivation holy land could bring. Now, within the Star Palace, in addition to cultivators from various cosmic forces, many humans from Earth also entered the Star Palace to cultivate.
This was also a convenient door that Qin Hao opened for the human race of Earth. The human race of Earth itself had limited physical talent; even after countless years of evolution, they were only considered a seventh or eighth-grade bloodline among the human race now.
“Baldy, don’t make a fuss, quiet down,” Hong said softly, rebuking Thunder God, whose behavior left him a bit speechless.
Although he was also very curious and amazed by the wonders of the Star Palace, his strong state of mind quickly calmed down. After countless years of cultivation in secret realms, he had gained a lot of knowledge.
Even if the Star Palace was very miraculous, in Hong's eyes, it was not surprising. Qin Hao had witnessed Qin Hao's methods in the Zhouguang Universe Country back then—with a mere gesture, he controlled space-time, altered the starry sky, corrected law transformations, and transformed a dangerous place into a secret realm for human cultivation.
With such methods, building such a palace complex was not difficult. Moreover, Qin Hao’s reputation among the human race had grown increasingly prominent over the past tens of thousands of years. Hong also understood Qin Hao’s power and the significance behind that immense strength even more clearly.
The current Qin Hao might be even more powerful than when he last saw him. His status, power, and strength were all incomparable to before.
Just from the powerhouses encountered along the way in this Star Palace, and the numerous cultivators, one could sense the strangeness of this Star Palace. Among the many cultivators, there were many Undying, and even Venerable-Level powerhouses.
“This is just the beginning; this is only the outer hall of the Star Palace, which began construction more than 20,000 years ago and is open for cultivation to cultivators within the clan,” Luo Feng said at this time. He knew that when he first came to the Star Palace, what he saw was the true core.
