Qin Hao's strength was greater than that of his three avatars, but his speed in the Universe Sea was still somewhat limited. After passing through black holes and various mystic realms, Qin Hao spent six days to arrive outside the Collapsing Peak World.
“As expected, it’s miraculous, truly one of the Three Great Forbidden Zones of the Universe Sea!”
Looking at the Collapsing Peak World's massive waterfall, tens of millions of light-years wide, and mountains nearly a hundred million light-years tall, the shared images still couldn't compare to the directness of seeing it in person.
Without lingering outside, Qin Hao quickly entered the Collapsing Peak World and arrived at the area where humanity gathered within the Collapsing Peak World.
“Star, you’re finally here!”
Just as he arrived outside the palace, a group of people emerged from the Star Palace, led by the Great Axe Founder.
“Greetings, Star Palace Master!”
The Universe Lords behind the Great Axe Founder also spoke respectfully. Seeing Qin Hao now felt different from before. Previously, they knew of Qin Hao's strength and that he was a human authority figure, but they didn't have a clear concept.
After all, a Universe Lord was just a Universe Lord; even the strongest wouldn't be much different from Primordial Chaos City Lord. Even if the Great Axe Founder had acknowledged him as having Universe Strongest-level strength, only a few truly recognized it from their hearts.
However, Qin Hao's battle in the Yuan Ao Mystic Realm gave humanity and the entire Primordial Universe a new understanding of his strength.
Easily defeating over fifty Universe Lords and killing Yuan Ao Master in an extremely short time. Such strength was enough to make all races take him seriously, even fear him.
“Greetings, everyone. My visit to the Collapsing Peak World this time is also to experience the vastness of the Universe Sea,” Qin Hao said humbly, while also looking at Kong Xuan and the Three God Ancestors beside him.
Since arriving in the Universe Sea, the Three God Ancestors had explored the Collapsing Peak World for some time, but almost exclusively in the Outer Domain. After all, Universe Lord-level power was sufficient in the Outer Domain, but entering the Inner Domain was still a bit lacking; one could easily fall.
“Star, this is your first time in the Universe Sea, so you must be careful. The area of the Collapsing Peak World that our human race has explored is still very limited; only the Outer Domain is relatively safe. Even I don't dare to easily enter the Inner Domain,” the Great Axe Founder explained the human race's exploration status of the Collapsing Peak World to Qin Hao.
As one of the Three Great Forbidden Zones of the Universe Sea, even the Great Axe Founder, who had reached the Eighth-Order True God stage, could not enter all areas, and his understanding of the Collapsing Peak World was very limited.
Qin Hao was well aware of this, but he still listened carefully to the Great Axe Founder's explanation. Qin Hao's goal was to explore the Inner Domain. With his current strength, as long as he was careful, there would be no danger in the Inner Domain.
Moreover, he still had the Collapsing Peak World Fragmented Map. Although the map's origin was a trap, it was not a problem for Qin Hao. The three True God-level powerhouses, including Hao Lei Star Master, were not a threat to the current Qin Hao.
If he found the Great Axe Founder's Supreme Treasure-level axe, the three True God's ultimate fate would only be death. Even if he entered the Dark Land, Qin Hao was confident he could come out alive.
With a divine body three light-years in size and his comprehension of the Ten Great Laws, Qin Hao was now confident he could contend against a 10th Tier True God. With a Supreme Treasure, Qin Hao believed his strength would reach the peak of a 10th Tier True God.
Furthermore, with the newly acquired Check-in Secret Treasure, Qin Hao was even more confident in this operation. His strength was already sufficient; now it was up to his fortune.
However, the reward for this check-in also made Qin Hao believe that his fortune this time would be good, and there would be no danger.
After completing the check-in, Qin Hao did not linger. He departed the next day and entered the Collapsing Peak World to begin his exploration. He took out the fragmented map and began to search for the corresponding location, while also constantly comparing it with the human race's exploration map of the Collapsing Peak World.
After leaving the human race's explored area, Qin Hao also began to be cautious, moving towards the Inner Domain of the Collapsing Peak World. His goal this time was very clear: the Inner Domain and the Supreme Treasure.
Qin Hao planned to leave the Supreme Treasure axe for the Great Axe Founder, but he wouldn't give it to him immediately. On one hand, Qin Hao currently did not have a Supreme Treasure in his hands, and the power it could exert in his hands was stronger. Furthermore, Qin Hao needed to study the Supreme Treasure for a period of time to improve his artifact refining skills.
Currently, Qin Hao's artifact refining could only reach the peak of top-tier treasures, not far from peak-level treasures. With the Supreme Treasure as a reference, it wouldn't be too difficult to advance to peak-level treasures.
On the other hand, it was also to restrict the Great Axe Founder. After all, with a Supreme Treasure, the Great Axe Founder would become too unbridled. Even if he escaped this crisis, there would be another one.
Currently, the Great Axe Founder didn't have as much pressure and already felt somewhat uninhibited. If he truly obtained a Supreme Treasure, he would completely let himself go.
However, Qin Hao was not too surprised by this. Since Origin Ancestor's incident, the Great Axe Founder had always suppressed himself, even being very restrained while adventuring in the Universe Sea. Once in danger, it could threaten the entire human race.
After entering the Inner Domain, Qin Hao's go ahead speed began to slow down. Unlike the Outer Domain, the Inner Domain was more dangerous. The environment within the mountain range was even harsher than the external environment.
Howling winds, carrying countless sand and rocks, flew at extreme speeds, already reaching hundreds of times the speed of light. In this area, one dared not slow down their flying speed in the slightest, and they had to constantly pay attention to the changes in the surrounding winds and sand. If one was not careful and was hit by the sand, the attack was no less than a full-force strike from a Universe Lord.
And once attacked, if the divine body was damaged and in a passive state, the possibility of falling would be even higher. Only the Universe Strongest, and some Universe Lords with powerful divine bodies, could survive in such an environment.
For Qin Hao, who had already reached the third level of divine power and possessed an endless divine body, these sand and rocks could hardly cause him harm. However, the complex environment created a great hindrance, and exploration could only proceed slowly.
In such a complex and unmarked area, besides the wind and sand, the dangers also included the almost impossible-to-determine direction. It must be said that every forbidden zone was far more complex than one imagined. The complex environment of the forbidden zone itself, the chaotic laws, and the countless potential crises could all lead to the fall of powerful individuals.
Even with the fragmented map in his hand, Qin Hao still needed to explore little by little to advance. It was no wonder that the Great Axe Founder also spent a hundred years exploring before he coincidentally found a treasure.
