All the Universe Exalts and Universe Overlords on God Mountain looked at the tall thrones in the very center.
For all of them, the change in the number of thrones had shifted them from initial speculation to their current heavy-heartedness; everyone eagerly wanted to understand the changes within their race.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
The void vibrated, and a massive aura swept through the entire hall. Figures appeared from the void: Lord of Void Gold, Lord of Green East, Lord of Dragon Travel, Darkness Lord, Ice Peak Lord… one by one, Universe Lords appeared on their respective thrones, looking down at the Universe Exalts and Universe Overlords in the entire temple.
“It seems they’ve become even stronger?”
With the appearance of the Universe Lords, the Universe Exalts and Universe Overlords felt as if they were experiencing an illusion; they sensed that the aura emanating from each appearing Universe Lord had undergone a very obvious change.
Stronger, more abstruse, more mysterious… it seemed as if the law aura on each person had become different. The Virtual Universe found it very difficult to fully simulate the aura of a Universe Lord-level strong individual, and precisely because of this, every slight change in aura appeared even more pronounced.
That simulated yet not entirely clear state, a state that couldn't be fully controlled, allowed these Universe Exalts and Universe Overlords to more clearly perceive the change in aura.
“What exactly happened? The Universe Lords have undergone such a significant change; they all seem to have become stronger. Could it be that a new secret realm has appeared in the universe, a new change, and only Universe Lords can enter?”
Everyone began to speculate. For Universe Lords to make such clear progress, it must be some secret realm, or even some secret realms within the Universe Sea, that could make it possible.
In that case, the disappearance of the three Universe Lords would also have an explanation; perishing in a universe secret realm was not a strange occurrence. Even strong individuals like Universe Lords were not completely immortal in the universe.
“Could this time be an announcement to enter a new secret realm?” At this moment, new speculations began to arise in everyone’s hearts.
However, before anyone could dwell too much, a magnificent figure appeared in the void. Primordial Chaos City Lord stood in the void, sweeping his gaze across the situation on God Mountain, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
The number of Human Race Universe Exalt and Universe Overlord level strong individuals had increased very rapidly. In just tens of thousands of years, many strong individuals who were originally stuck at bottlenecks had already entered new realms, and more new faces appeared on God Mountain.
Of course, there were also many old faces, especially the new top Universe Overlords, who had also cultivated for countless years, completed their breakthroughs, and their next step was to enter the Universe Lord stage, becoming the focus of cultivation for the Human Race's next batch of Universe Lords.
After Primordial Chaos City Lord took his seat, a powerful pressure emanated from the void again, and Great Axe Founder appeared in the void. He sat down very straightforwardly on the left throne, his expression very solemn.
“Great Axe Founder isn’t the last to appear; has the Human Race produced an even stronger individual, or has Origin Ancestor broken free?”
Great Axe Founder’s action undoubtedly indicated a change in the Human Race’s strongest position. However, a new Universe Strongest would undoubtedly be unable to achieve this point, so only a situation like Origin Ancestor breaking free could have occurred.
As a symbol of an era for the Human Race, all ancient strong individuals were still aware of Origin Ancestor’s existence and knew of his power. Only Origin Ancestor could suppress Great Axe Founder.
“It could also be Star Lord. Previously, Star Lord was also ranked alongside Primordial Chaos City Lord and the others. Now there are three thrones, and no new throne has appeared, so it should be Star Lord who has broken through to become the Universe Strongest.”
“How is that possible? How long has Star Lord been a Universe Lord? How could he become the Universe Strongest so quickly?”
“The realm of the Universe Strongest is so profound. Even Primordial Chaos City Lord cultivated for countless epochs before breaking through. Origin Ancestor, when he became the Universe Strongest back then, also experienced countless years. How could Star Lord have accomplished it in such a short period of time now?”
Although they didn't believe it in their hearts, everyone was still filled with anticipation. The rise of a genius, the rise of a peerless strong individual, was undoubtedly the best news for the Human Race.
However, even with such anticipation, this possibility was too, too small. Star Lord breaking through to become the Universe Strongest was not at all questionable; it was just a matter of time.
But now, at this point in time, it was almost impossible. The Primordial Universe had never seen such a genius strong individual, who, in such a short time since his birth, had become the Universe Strongest, and whose strength was even greater than Great Axe Founder’s.
Amidst all the surprise and doubt, a magnificent figure appeared in the void. He wore a starry robe, a crown on his head, a starry longsword at his waist, and behind him, a starry universe constantly evolved.
The moment he appeared, everyone felt as if they were facing the cosmic stars themselves; the trajectory of every single star was incredibly profound, as if it was evolving the universe and its laws.
The person before them seemed to be the core of the entire universe and starry sky, the source of all laws, the root of all profundities. Even within the Virtual Universe, everyone couldn't help but become deeply immersed, feeling their minds drawn into the starry sky, entering an illusion, where the laws were clearly displayed before them.
Everyone couldn't help but fall into comprehension, completely forgetting everything around them. All their minds were attracted, drawn, and entered a state of cultivation.
After an unknown amount of time, the surrounding starry sky began to dim, and one person on God Mountain broke free from the illusion, feeling that his comprehension was so clear, all his doubts about law cultivation were completely answered, and his strength had made extremely obvious progress.

Just as he was about to stand up and shout, he felt the surrounding space being confined, only able to move around the throne, but unable to leave that range.
Looking around again, everyone else was still in comprehension; he was the first to awaken, and also the one who gained the least. A look of dejection appeared on his face; the joy brought by the recent breakthrough now turned into regret.
Why didn't he accumulate more in ordinary times? Why didn't he spend more time on cultivation? The next time such an opportunity would arise was unknown, and to make further progress might require a very long period of years.
At the same time, his gaze towards the central figure was filled with longing.
“Star Lord has really broken through and become so powerful.”
