After parting ways with the Bronze Immortal Pagoda members, Qin Hao went directly to the next forbidden zone.
In his view, there must be some unspeakable secrets hidden in these restricted areas.
First, the Black River Star Domain is very likely a connection point, a connection point between the Zero-Dimensional Universe and the Great Qian Universe.
This is precisely why these restricted areas all share a common feature: they are all unexplored, Chaos Spaces.
The reason why the Black River Star Domain had no effect on Qin Hao, and even the subsequent entry of the Qing Tong and Immortal Pagoda members, was largely unaffected.
This is because Qin Hao cultivates the Twelve Palaces, which contain twelve universes within his body.
In particular, the Infant-Nurturing Universe can continuously provide life energy, ensuring that Qin Hao's lifespan is infinite.
Therefore, he was able to survive in the Chaos Space.
In fact, after reading the history books on the development of the universe in the Initial Universe and the Kaiyuan Universe, Qin Hao discovered a secret.
That is, Chaos and Pangu were born from Chaos, and therefore possessed the Chaos Dao Body.
Those who possess the Chaos Dao Body can survive in the Chaos Space of Zero-Dimensional Universe and can create universes.
The same applies to Qin Hao; his first incarnation was likely born from Chaos, and he even created a universe.
Moreover, Qin Hao could sense that in each of his previous lives, he must have created a universe.
So far, he has reincarnated ten times, and logically speaking, he should have created ten universes.
However, all we know so far is the Haotian Universe he created in his previous life, which is today's entire Solar System.
So the question is, where did the universe he created go, and why didn't it exist?
Another issue is that in this life, he was not born in Chaos, but instead chose to be born in a mortal body in the Haotian Universe he created in his previous life.
Originally, even if he were born by an ordinary person, there should have been extraordinary celestial phenomena at his birth.
However, because the Haotian Universe was used as a sacrifice in his previous life, it led to the Haotian Universe falling into the Dharma-Ending Age, ultimately devoid of any spiritual energy.
Therefore, he was just an ordinary mortal when he was born. Even when he was supposed to awaken his superpowers, he didn't actually awaken any superpowers; he simply activated his Chaos Dao Body.
As for why Qing Tong, Immortal Pagoda, and the others were not affected when they later entered the Black River Star Domain, it was because he had incorporated the Black River Star Domain into his Zero-Dimensional Space and placed it under his control.
Moreover, during these 50 years of cultivation, Qin Hao incorporated the other two forbidden zones into the Zero-Dimensional Space, but the time was too long, not as fast as in the Black River Star Domain.
In the entire Great Qian Universe, there are a total of 9 well-known forbidden zones. Currently, 3 have been incorporated, leaving 6 to be added.
The forbidden zone where Qin Hao is currently located is considered an extremely terrifying forbidden zone even within the Great Qian Universe.
This restricted area is called the "Desolate Star Domain".
Many terrifying legends also circulate about the Desolate Star Domain. For example, long ago, a Universal God Emperor accidentally discovered the Desolate Star Domain.
He sensed an extremely rich spiritual energy inside, so he went inside to investigate.
But after he entered the Desolate Star Domain, he never came out again.
In fact, the Great Qian Universe originally only allowed a maximum of 10 Universal God Emperors to exist at the same time.
Because this Divine Emperor entered the Desolate Star Domain, someone outside directly broke through to the realm of the Universal God Emperor.
Therefore, many people believe that this Universal God Emperor must have died in the Desolate Star Domain.
Of course, some people with weaker abilities also accidentally wandered into the Desolate Star Domain.
Later, this person miraculously survived and broke through from the original True God 100th Rank to the God of the Universe 99th Tier.
But after he came out, he changed completely. He had the strength, but he lost his mind and became an idiot.
However, his strength did indeed reach the God of the Universe 99th Tier, and both of these things actually happened in the Great Qian Universe.
There are many legends about the Desolate Star Domain, but they are all exaggerated.
Qin Hao entered the Desolate Star Domain and, just like when he first entered the Black River Star Domain, he felt a strange sense of familiarity.
"Just as I suspected, these so-called forbidden zones are simply isolated Chaos Spaces, not terrifying places at all. It's just that ordinary people can't survive in them."
With that, Qin Hao sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate.
This was indeed fast; in just one month, the entire Desolate Star Domain was incorporated into its Zero-Dimensional Space.
Opening his eyes, Qin Hao was overjoyed. He thought to himself that by incorporating these forbidden zones into the Zero-Dimensional Space within his body, he could enhance his strength. It couldn't be better.
If he were to cultivate diligently, it would probably take him 50 years.
But after just one month in these so-called restricted areas, the results were comparable to 50 years – it couldn't be better.
"Currently, the Black River Star Domain, the Savage Star Domain, the Red Sea Star Domain, and the Desolate Star Domain have been included as four forbidden zones. There are only five more forbidden zones to go."
Qin Hao said excitedly that, so far, he had discovered that after being incorporated into the Desolate Star Domain, his strength had directly broken through to the God of the Universe 65th Rank.
Previously, when the three forbidden zones of the Black River Star Domain, the Savage Star Domain, and the Red Sea Star Domain were included, he had only broken through from the God of the Universe 50th Rank to the 60th level.
But this time, with just one restricted area, they directly broke through to level 5.
In the realm of the God of the Universe, the difference of even one level should not be underestimated.
Unless you encounter an absolute genius, even a difference of just one rank can result in a difference of ten thousand times in strength.
With a sigh, Qin Hao left the Desolate Star Domain once again and began his journey to the next forbidden zone— the Hongmeng Star Domain.
This restricted area is quite far from Qin Hao; he needs to traverse the entire territory of the Demon Beast Clan.
The four most powerful races today are the Human Race, the Demon Race, the Demon Clan, and the Insect Clan.
The most powerful of them all is the Human Race, which is comparable to the other three major races.
The reason is that the Human Race has five Universal God Emperors, the Demon Race Universal God Emperor has two, the Demon Clan also has two, while the Insect Clan only has one Cosmic Universal God Emperor, the Insect Mother Universal God Emperor.
Because the human race is so powerful, other races generally do not welcome humans.
The Spirit Clan is a case in point. The Spirit Bead Clan Chief chose not to accept the talents of the Qing Tong and Immortal Pagoda, two Innate Spirit Treasures, and even went so far as to expel Qin Hao and his group from the country.
Similarly, the same applies to the Demon Beast Clan. Qin Hao's journey to the Hongmeng Star Domain requires him to traverse the Demon Race's territory.
To be honest, Qin Hao was still very worried.
Although he can now freely transform into humans, other species, and human forms, this is within the Great Qian Universe, and the Demon Race possesses the cultivation of Universal God Emperor, making it difficult for them to remain hidden.
"Sigh, we can only play it by ear."
With that, he transformed into an ordinary Black Mamba Snake and entered the Demon Race realm.
