Ten million years was not a long time for Qin Hao, who had already spent billions of years in the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space. Once he entered the refining state, Qin Hao began to fully immerse himself.
After initially refining three Supreme Treasures for the Zhou Tian Star Array, Qin Hao's subsequent refining attempts were not as smooth, and his luck was not as good.
Although his techniques were very proficient in every refining attempt, the birth of a Supreme Treasure was not that simple. Even if Qin Hao wanted to mass-produce them, it was difficult to succeed every time. Over ten million years, Qin Hao refined hundreds of times.
However, there were only about 20 Supreme Treasures; most of the others were Peak Treasures, Top-tier Treasures, and there were more than a dozen direct failures where even the materials were completely destroyed.
Twenty Supreme Treasures would be an immense fortune for any force in the Universe Sea now. Qin Hao also gathered his own Supreme Treasure set: a Supreme Treasure longsword, with the Zhou Tian Star Array carved on its blade, named the Star Sword by Qin Hao. It reached the level of a Ninth-Order True God Treasure, which greatly surprised Qin Hao.
For the Supreme Treasure armor, Qin Hao initially wanted to emulate the Star Sword, but all his attempts failed, resulting in several Top-tier Treasure Star Armors. Finally, Qin Hao used the Earth Law as a foundation to create a Thick Earth Armor, which reached the level of an Eighth-rank True God Supreme Treasure.
As for the palace-type Supreme Treasure, it was relatively more complex, but it also reached the Eighth-rank True God level. Other flying-type wings were only at the Seven-rank True God Treasure level, and soul-type ones were similar. For Qin Hao, they were merely better than nothing.
Other Supreme Treasures he refined were also only at the Seven-rank True God level, primarily armor and weapon types, which were the result of Qin Hao's research into standardized True God Treasures.
Their power was very singular, but they all reached the True God Treasure level, though the current success rate was not high. It was through the research of these Supreme Treasures that a large number of Top-tier Treasure and Peak Treasure level armors and weapons appeared.
These were completely sufficient for the Human Race. Universe Lords who gathered both armor and weapons would have stronger life-saving abilities and attack power, and their strength in the Primordial Universe could be improved by at least one or two ranks.
Furthermore, future Universe Lords of the Human Race would also have more choices after breaking through. Hundreds of Top-tier Treasures and Peak Treasures would be needed over an extremely long period of time, considering the current rate of Universe Lord births in the Human Race.
However, some of these would also need to be exchanged for materials with other forces.
As ten million years passed, Qin Hao surveyed the treasures and Supreme Treasures floating within the Jiang Lan Realm, feeling quite satisfied.
"The materials are completely consumed. It's time to return to the Primordial Universe and prepare to break through to become a True God!" Qin Hao waved his hand, collecting all the treasures. He then stepped out of the Jiang Lan Realm and flew rapidly out of the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space.
Leaving the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space area quickly, the cultivation rooms he passed were already empty of cultivators. Qin Hao's breakthrough caused too much commotion, and almost all the powerhouses in this area chose to leave beforehand, causing the entire space to enter an unprecedented vacant state.
This was the first time such a situation had occurred in the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space throughout countless cosmic eras.
Turning his head to look at the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space behind him, Qin Hao had considered whether he could take these stone pillars with him, but in the end, he gave up.
The powerful will impact near the stone pillars, combined with their immense size, made them difficult to move, and it might even attract the attention of the Duan Dong He inheritance.
Without lingering, Qin Hao quickly left the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space and flew directly out of the Universe Boat. Although the commotion in the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space deterred many internal cultivators, its impact on the much vaster Universe Boat was very limited.
Even though the figure that appeared in the life imprint surprised and puzzled everyone, there were no results after exploration, and most people continued to return to their original state, seeking possibilities for breakthrough.
"Someone left the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space again. Didn't everyone evacuate already? This person is really bold, daring to stay after such a situation occurred."
"That's right, a chaotic airflow storm that swept thousands of light-years. It's said that a True God even perished, directly annihilated in just one encounter."
Qin Hao's departure from the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space was witnessed by many powerhouses, and they were all very surprised by the situation. After all, the chaotic airflow storm that swept thousands of light-years also affected the area outside the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space.
That storm almost became the topic of discussion for all powerhouses in the entire Universe Boat, as such an abnormal situation could be a crisis or an opportunity.
However, everyone was very cautious in their choices. To survive such a storm and emerge safely, even if he was just a Universe Lord, his strength should not be underestimated.
Qin Hao coldly scanned the gazes directed at him, not caring, and his speed did not decrease at all. He quickly left the Universe Boat.
After leaving the Universe Boat, Qin Hao flew rapidly towards the Primordial Universe, continuously teleporting. Compared to when he first came to the Universe Boat, Qin Hao's current teleportation distance was much farther and faster.
At this moment, Qin Hao was like a wanderer returning home, feeling a surge of excitement, and his speed reached the limit he could currently endure.
If it were a typical Universe Lord or True God, even with teleportation, their frequency would be controlled. One reason is unknown dangers, and the other is the consumption of divine power.
However, neither of these was a problem for Qin Hao. His powerful strength and immense divine body were already enough for Qin Hao to venture into the Universe Sea, and even attempt to challenge reincarnation.
After a month, Qin Hao could already see the Primordial Universe. As the largest celestial body in the Universe Sea, the Primordial Universe's scope was much larger than the Three Great Forbidden Zones.
Looking at the Primordial Universe, Qin Hao felt a sense of familiarity. This was the universe that gave birth to the Human Race and also to him. Every living being in the Primordial Universe has an innate sense of closeness to it, but it is difficult to perceive when inside.
It can even be said that every living being is a part of the Primordial Universe. Only after becoming a Universe Lord can one survive outside the Primordial Universe and temporarily detach.
Only upon becoming a True God can one completely detach from the Primordial Universe, but the connection cannot be completely severed. If the Primordial Universe is completely destroyed, its associated beings will gradually move towards extinction. Just like the current First Universe Era, their Primordial Universe has been destroyed, and they now survive by relying on a True God's Small Universe.
However, when their cosmic era completely comes to an end, True Gods will die, their Small Universes will completely collapse, and all living beings will perish.
