285: Arrival at Cheonseongju
Rong Yuanliang quickly arrived at the Grand Elder's residence and said straightforwardly:
"Grand Elder, I feel signs of a Breakthrough in my cultivation recently, so I intend to go into seclusion. Please handle the Sect's affairs for me in the meantime. We shall discuss other matters once I emerge."
The Grand Elder replied readily upon hearing this:
"Oh? You only broke through to the Void Refining Middle Stage a few years ago, right? You are breaking through again so soon? How joyous, how truly joyous! Go quickly, I am here for the Sect, everything will be fine."
"Then many thanks, Grand Elder!"
After speaking, Rong Yuanliang went directly to a secret chamber that only he knew about, activated the protective Formation, took out some Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and began to Cultivate.
This time, he would not emerge until he reached the Undergoing Tribulation stage!
...
The North Wasteland State was simply too far from here. Lu Hao himself did not know how much distance he had traveled; in any case, he had already become numb from staying on the ship...
The others were fine; after being active for a while, they each entered their rooms to seclude and Cultivate, but Lu Hao could not Cultivate!
Fortunately, Lan Xiaoying had not forgotten her duties; amidst her own Cultivation, she still took the time to carefully prepare three meals a day for Lu Hao.
Lu Hao was bored, so he even went down into the Devouring Demon Sea to explore for a while.
The deeper he went, the more obvious the feeling of the Law's imprisonment became. When Lu Hao reached a depth of about 100,000 li, his Physical Body already felt a faint stinging sensation.
This surprised Lu Hao greatly. One had to know that his Physical Body was terrifyingly strong; how could there be such powerful power of the Law at a mere 100,000 li?
Furthermore, it was not just his Physical Body; his Divine Sense was also heavily suppressed in the sea.
Normally, a single thought could cover an entire state, but now it could only extend about ten kilometers.
He looked towards the deeper parts of the Devouring Demon Sea, and a feeling of palpitation appeared in Lu Hao's heart for no reason, as if some peerless great beast was watching him from the seabed.
However, faintly, Lu Hao could also feel an extremely subtle summoning, calling him to go deeper to investigate, which made Lu Hao very puzzled.
But now was not the time to explore the truth of the Devouring Demon Sea. Regardless, let's go to the Thousand Stars State first.
Lu Hao immediately ended his excursion in the Devouring Demon Sea, returned to the ship, and continued waiting in boredom.
Two months later.
The group finally caught a glimpse of the territory of the Thousand Stars State!
Thousand Stars State, we have arrived!
Lu Hao sensed it slightly. This Thousand Stars State was indeed large, at least thousands of times the area of the North Wasteland State. No wonder this place could possess so many Origins!
The Void-Breaking Ship slowly docked and stopped. The group quickly disembarked and stood behind Lu Hao.
As soon as he stepped onto the land of the Thousand Stars State, Mu Siyuan sensed it slightly and said impatiently:
"Master! I feel it! The Origin, it is the Origin! This Thousand Stars State has thousands of Origins, and many of them have not been successfully comprehended by anyone yet!"
"I can already feel the instinctive craving from my body. If I can stay in this Thousand Stars State for several hundred years, I am confident that I can comprehend all of these Origins!"
Lu Hao frowned slightly upon hearing this:
"Several hundred years?"
"Yes! It will only take several hundred years. I have the foundation from my previous life, so basically, I don't need to spend too much time to succeed."
Lu Hao shook his head:
"No, I mean, isn't several hundred years a bit too long? Can it be sped up? For example, finishing in a few years?"
Mu Siyuan said in shock:
"Master, how is that possible?! Such a fast cultivation speed, I have never heard of it in the Upper Realm in my previous life, and it is even more impossible in the Lower Realm!"
Lu Hao sank his mind into the System and looked at his panel.

It has been a long time since I drew a prize. How about drawing a prize to see if there are any treasures that can assist in Cultivation?
"System, use all remaining points to draw prizes!"
[Ding, the Host is performing a ten-draw. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining...]
Ah... this System can only do ten-draws at most. How long will this take...
"System, stop broadcasting! Remind me again when you are finished."
[Okay, Host!]
...
"Master, what is wrong? Why are you not speaking?"
Mu Siyuan looked at Lu Hao, who had suddenly stopped speaking, and asked in confusion.
Lu Hao regained his senses and said with a smile:
"It is nothing. Let us find a place to stay. As for the problem of Cultivation, I will see if there is any way to help you later."
After speaking, Lu Hao looked around.
It is no wonder that the Thousand Stars State is the most powerful of the 108 States; even the entire coastline is overcrowded, and there is no such thing as wasteland.
In Lu Hao's field of vision, there were all kinds of buildings and busy Cultivators; he could not see any empty space at all.
Before long, Lu Hao arrived at the foot of a city and looked up. Three large characters caught Lu Hao's eyes.
"Nine Sun City."
And on the side, there was also a notice board, which wrote some of the rules of Nine Sun City.
Lu Hao took a casual look and found that it was mainly about prohibiting fighting at will, not destroying buildings for no reason, as well as needing to purchase a residence and paying a certain residential fee to live in the city, and so on.
"These rules look quite good. The security of this Nine Sun City is not bad. Let's go, let's enter the city and see if it is really like that."
The group followed Lu Hao's footsteps and slowly entered the city. When entering the city, a light curtain appeared and scanned their bodies.
"Stop right there!"
Suddenly, a shout came from in front of Lu Hao, and then a squad appeared in front of them.
This squad was wearing black armor, holding long spears, with sharp eyes; they looked quite imposing.
