He-El went into seclusion.
In the meditation chamber, He-El lay on the meditation bed with his eyes closed, his consciousness delving deep into his own universe.
Within his universe was a starry expanse devoid of planets, stars, and meteors. There was only endless cold and darkness, with He-El's figure condensed in the dark void.
"Infinity Stones."
With a thought from He-El and a casual beckoning gesture, the six Infinity Stones representing space, time, reality, power, mind, and soul appeared in his hand, radiating dazzling brilliance.
His universe recorded the operational logic of the universe he had observed through the six Infinity Stones in the Marvel Universe. It was a miniature replica of the Marvel Universe.
His mind could not completely memorize or observe the immense amount of information contained in a universe's operational logic, so he had recreated a scaled-down version within his own universe.
The operational logic of the Marvel Universe that He-El had observed through the six Infinity Stones was merely the tip of the iceberg. Yet even that small portion was enough for him to reign supreme within the universe.
While other stellar-level powerhouses merely wielded the power of stars, He-El was already observing the underlying operational logic of the universe. He had surpassed them by far too much.
After returning to this universe, He-El had remained busy fighting the Oa Star Pan-Stellar Domain Alliance and had not paid much attention to his own universe.
It was not until Doctor Manhattan awakened him to it that He-El learned what made his universe different from others.
The underlying operational logic of any universe could be layered onto his own universe.
But He-El had not even fully studied the operational logic of the Marvel Universe, so he was in no hurry to add the operational logic of other universes
