In the Ancestral God Tomb, Qin Hao once again emerged from the Nine Heavens Palace.
Over 500 years, which translated to hundreds of thousands of years within the Jiang Lan Realm, Qin Hao had advanced from the fourth level all the way to the ninth level. His comprehension of Space Law and Time Law had also entered the final stage of the third direction.
It must be said that the further one progressed in Time Law and Space Law, the higher the difficulty, and the increase in difficulty even exceeded Qin Hao's expectations. Even though each level of Time Law and Space Law became clearer, and even Qin Hao's gene level was continuously improving, the time spent still increased significantly.
Qin Hao had already spent nearly two hundred years on the ninth level alone, which amounted to over 150,000 years within the Jiang Lan Realm. He had spent about 50 years on the fourth level, with most of that time dedicated to hunting Space-Time Lords and collecting divine crystals; 60 years on the fifth level; 70 years on the sixth level; 90 years on the seventh level; and 130 years on the eighth level, exceeding 100,000 years in the Jiang Lan Realm.
Such a long period of time was unexpected by Qin Hao. Counting the cultivation time in hundreds of thousands of years, coupled with the accumulated time from his Dream Enlightenment ability, the time Qin Hao spent was even longer.
However, Qin Hao's strength also greatly improved. Upon entering the ninth level, Qin Hao utilized divine crystals to reach a basic gene level of 90 times. With the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Diagram's augmentation, his gene level reached 9720 times, and his power already exceeded 54,000 times the peak power of a World Lord Rank nine.
Coupled with the power of Time Law and Space Law, Qin Hao's strength was already comparable to a King-Level advanced.
After 200 years of cultivation on the ninth level, Qin Hao was on the verge of completing all three paths in Time Law and Space Law. Furthermore, his basic gene level had reached 100 times, which was essentially the limit for ordinary life forms in the Primordial Universe.
With the augmentation of the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Diagram, his gene level had reached 10080 times, just a hair's breadth away from perfect genes. However, this small gap presented a tremendous challenge to Qin Hao.
Moreover, Qin Hao also made significant progress in his Visualization Method. The stars in his Sea of Consciousness had reached 365, and the worlds within his body had exceeded 300, increasing the power amplification he received from the original 6 times to 12 times.
Overall, Qin Hao's strength was already comparable to a King-level Limit. His base strength reached 120,000 times the peak power of a World Lord Rank nine, and his law comprehension also reached its limit. After breaking through, he would surpass the King-level Limit, approaching King-level Invincible strength.
Throughout this entire process, Qin Hao did not have a smooth journey. While hunting Space-Time Lords, Qin Hao was repeatedly besieged by them and even witnessed their cleansing of worlds.
Large numbers of Space-Time Lords launched direct attacks from the abyss towards all the trial-takers in the entire world. The scene was unprecedentedly grand, with battlefields everywhere across the world. The battles between Space-Time Lords and trial-takers almost completely disfigured the entire world.
Space-Time Lords suffered massive casualties, and trial-takers also sustained numerous injuries. However, most were only wounded, with only a small number truly dying.
After all, trial-takers were Undying-level powerhouses, already divine power life forms. As long as their divine power was not completely extinguished and their souls were not obliterated, they were virtually immortal.
In contrast, Space-Time Lords were flesh-and-blood life forms. Although powerful, if they sustained too severe injuries, they would directly lose their lives.
It was precisely this advantage that allowed trial-takers to persevere in battle and seize opportunities. However, the sheer number of Space-Time Lords also led many trial-takers to choose to directly withdraw. Before engaging in battle, they would directly use up their comprehension attempts in the Nine Heavens Palace and be forcibly removed from the Ancestral God Tomb.
Qin Hao also encountered many dangers during the battles, slaying numerous Space-Time Lords and collecting a large amount of divine crystals. He was also targeted by Space-Time Lords, besieged by over a thousand of them, and ultimately could only retreat into the Jiang Lan Realm.
Even the repeatedly effective Sealed Star and Five Elements Grand Array could not completely cope, as even formations required power to sustain them.
Besides Space-Time Lords, Qin Hao was also targeted and assassinated multiple times, even being targeted by five King-Level powerhouses. However, compared to the vast number of Space-Time Lords, the pressure from the five Champions was very limited. Especially as Qin Hao's gene level continuously improved, his strength far surpassed these Champions.
The final result was that the Wan Shou Tu Pu (Myriad Beasts Diagram) gained several more Champion-level servants.
To acquire so many servants at the World Lord Rank stage was almost unheard of in the Primordial Universe. After leaving Viska Star, even if he encountered assassination attempts, Qin Hao now had trump cards.
Most of these Champions were native Monster Race from Viska Star. Once they self-destructed, even a Venerable would have to deal with them cautiously.
Over 500 years, Qin Hao also experienced the Primitive Mystical Region's World Lord Rank qualification battle. Many in the Primitive Mystical Region were quite surprised by Qin Hao's urgent breakthrough to World Lord.
Comprehending the 12th level of the Heavenly Bridge was good, even top-tier, for a Domain Lord, but among World Lords, it offered no advantage. Many World Lords in the Primitive Mystical Region had already passed the 15th level of the Heavenly Bridge, and some geniuses had even reached the 17th level, just one step away from being comparable to a Champion in law comprehension.
Many powerhouses were not optimistic about Qin Hao's breakthrough, even suggesting that Qin Hao might be eliminated to the Highest Beginning Mythical Region. However, once the qualification battle began, Qin Hao immediately gave everyone an unexpected surprise.
Upon entering the arena, he instantly teleported and instantly killed his opponent. As one of the three paths of Space Law, comprehending instant teleportation meant he had completed one path, and his law comprehension had reached above the 18th level, which even some Champions had not fully mastered.
After one qualification battle, Qin Hao directly established his title as the number one World Lord of the Primitive Mystical Region. He was also summoned again by Primordial Chaos City Lord, who inquired about his situation in the Ancestral God Tomb.
Furthermore, in response to Qin Hao's idea of creating his own secret method, Primordial Chaos City Lord specifically guided Qin Hao and opened up new space in the Virtual Universe, designing various opponents for Qin Hao to accelerate the creation of his secret method.
After the qualification battle, Qin Hao once again entered the Heavenly Bridge Plane and challenged the Cosmic Tongtian Bridge. After directly passing the 18th level, he did not continue any further.
After this, no one questioned Qin Hao's status in the Virtual Universe Corporation anymore. While Qin Hao's strength was improving, the strength of Luo Feng, Hong, Thunder God, and others was also continuously increasing. Luo Feng and Bolan had already passed the ninth level of the Heavenly Bridge, while Hong, Thunder God, and Rong Jun had broken through the seventh level.
Moreover, Earth had completely integrated with the universe, and both its technology and strength had greatly improved. What Qin Hao least expected was that his own younger sister, Qin Ying, had also joined the Virtual Universe Corporation and entered the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm to cultivate in Primordial Chaos City.
