“After ten thousand years, I finally return to this world.

  “Was there an invisible big hand that was dominating everything?”


  Ding Hao took a deep breath to calm down. Later, he said, “So, you have been in this world for more than four years?”


  Lei Tingchan nodded and said, “It has been four years, six months, and fifteen days. I’ve been trying to find a way to return to our world, but it’s too difficult. However, I noticed a very strange thing.”


  “What is it?” Ding Hao asked.

  The look on Lei Tingchan’s face was a little strange. Then she slowly said, “The Land of Divine Grace seems to be very suitable for me to cultivate. The magical powers of Buddhism I got earlier in the Buddhist ruins of Sage Battlefield in the Archean Period are hard to cultivate now on the Land of Infinity because of the changes in the world’s tidal forces. I also practiced these Buddhist magical powers in the Sage Battlefield after I got them, but the effect does not match what I have expected. However, when I arrived at the Land of Divine Grace, I found that I cultivated easily and advanced at a high speed. It was incredible that I have entered the six-apertured Martial Grand Emperor Realm from the Inborn Martial Grandmaster Realm.”


  Lei Tingchan did not hide her strength and realm from Ding Hao, but told him everything.

  “I have the same feeling with you.” Ding Hao also told her about his cultivation progress over the past two months. He said doubtfully, “God-level masters on the Land of Infinity call this continent the immortal land and said that there is a mystery of becoming an immortal here. Is it because the Land of Divine Grace is a good place for Qi cultivation?”


  Lei Tingchan said thoughtfully, “I don’t think it is the only reason, because the warriors of the Land of Divine Grace don’t seem to have a cultivation speed as amazing as ours. According to my observation, although most of the warriors here are stronger than those on the Land of Infinity, their cultivation speed is not fast.”


  “Really?” Ding Hao was surprised.

  Originally, he thought that people of the Human Clan could cultivate so fast because the tides of this world were pure and plentiful and the power of the rules was clear. However, according to her description, the native residents of the Land of Divine Grace were far inferior to him and the other outsider Lei Tingchan.

  It took Lei Tingchan more than four years to cultivate and enter the Martial Grand Emperor Realm, while it only took Ding Hao two months to reach the peak of the eight-apertured Martial Emperor Realm. In terms of speed of promotion, he far surpassed Lei Tingchan.

  “Why are we able to increase our strength so quickly? Why couldn’t others do it?”


  After thinking carefully, Ding Hao knew that he had to find more so-called reincarnated demon stars to verify his speculations if he wanted to solve the puzzle. At the moment, Ding Hao was almost sure that the so-called reincarnated demon stars were actually the geniuses of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan who had come to this world through the Gate to the Immortal Land on Green Wood Cliff and the chessboard formation in the mysterious cave of the Back Mountain.

  If those god-level masters who had participated in the battle of the Green Wood Cliff entered the Land of Divine Grace, and their cultivation speed would be the same as theirs, they were very likely to get rid of the barriers of cultivation on the Land of Infinity and enter the Immortal Realm with their vision, knowledge, and Fate Cultivation.

  In this aspect, it was indeed an opportunity that the god-level masters had longed for.

  Lei Tingchan told Ding Hao what she knew in detail. “Now, the Land of Divine Grace is divided into four major regions. The east is governed by the God’s Palace of the Human Clan, the west is ruled by an alien race-the Feather Clan, the north is occupied by primitive giant beasts, and the south is controlled by the Sea Clan.”


  Ding Hao nodded and said, “Do you know the current situation of God’s Palace of the Human Clan?”


  Lei Tingchan glanced at Ding Hao and said, “The God’s Palace of the Human Clan is located in the east. It is the most powerful force among the four regions and is known as the Eternal Palace. The lord of God’s Palace was adopted by the last No.1 Superior on the Land of Divine Grace. It is said that the lord of God’s Palace had 12 biological sons and one adopted son, all of whom are peerless talents. Later, the eldest Divine Prince who was most likely to succeed to the throne betrayed the God’s Palace and the adopted 13th prince ascended the throne.”


  Ding Hao silently sighed.

  It was exactly the same as what he knew.

  “Well, go on,” Ding Hao said.

  Lei Tingchan continued, “15 years have passed since the eldest Divine Prince’s rebellion and the adopted 13th prince’s succession to the throne. The God’s Palace has been expanding recklessly these years, setting off endless wars and getting involved in hundreds of battles with the Feather Clan in the west. It has won more battles than it lost. As a result, it gained great fame and high prestige.”


  “What?” Ding Hao suddenly interrupted and looked at Lei Tingchan in shock. He asked incredibly, “How many years has it been since the eldest Divine Prince betrayed God’s Palace?”


  “15 years,” said Lei Tingchan with certainty, still confused.

  15 years?

  There was a mess in Ding Hao’s mind.

  “It was only 15 years?

  “How was it possible?

  “According to the information I got from the golden light in the Fake God City, on the Land of Infinity, tens of thousands of years had passed since it happened. It had also been tens of thousands of years since Ding Shengtan and his wife were seriously injured and escaped from God’s Palace. But why was it that only 15 years had passed on the Land of Divine Grace?

  “Could it be that the time velocities on the Land of Infinity and the Land of God’s Grace were different?

  “That’s not right, either.

  “As Lei Tingchan just said, four years have passed since I was teleported to the Land of Divine Grace by the last space crack in the Sage Battlefield for more than four years. This period was exactly the same as that of the Land of Infinity. That was to say, the time velocities on the two continents were almost the same.

  “What on earth did I neglect?”


  “Is there anything wrong?” Lei Tingchan noticed the doubts in Ding Hao’s eyes.

  “Oh, nothing.” Ding Hao shook his head and said nothing more.

  Everyone had their own secrets, and Ding Hao did not want to reveal the truth of his birth for the time being. After all, it was a serious matter and there were still many incredible mysteries.

  At the same time, Ding Hao realized that if 15 years had passed in a real sense, everything seemed to be logical. 15 years ago, he was 3 years old. 15 years later, he was 18 years old. He was exactly the same age now.

  His cousin Ding Tong, who had the Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate, should be 21 years old now.

  That was to say, there was not an age difference of tens of thousands of years between them.

  It was definitely a good thing for him.

  Since the day he knew the mystery of his birth, Ding Hao had thought about revenge in the depths of his heart, but he had to admit that it was too difficult to achieve it.

  “Ding Tong was already a peerless genius with the Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate. Later, he had obtained my blood of the Saintly Being of Saber and Sword when I was young and had the constitution of the Saintly Being of Saber and Sword. With his talents rarely seen in history, he would have already become a god-level master if he had been given tens of thousands of years to cultivate. It was even possible for him to break into the Eternal Celestial Realm.

  “It was all right now.

  “It was only a time difference of 15 years.

  “It was not too late for me to fill the gap.”


  Suddenly, Ding Hao felt much happier.

  Thinking of it, Ding Hao asked, “Have you ever heard of another peerless genius in the God’s Palace named Ding Tong?”


  “Ding Tong?” Lei Tingchan carefully thought for a moment and said, “I have never heard of such a person. Among countless geniuses in God’s Palace, there are many extremely prominent people who are unparalleled in both ancient and modern times and there are also numerous peerless geniuses. However, I have never heard of Ding Tong. He must be just an ordinary person. Besides, I am just a passer-by after all. I don’t know much about the internal affairs of God’s Palace. Moreover, I have been detained in the City Lord’s Mansion of the Northern Land City for almost a year, so I don’t know much about the outside world.”


  “An ordinary person?”


  Ding Hao shook his head and said nothing.

  In terms of status and talent, nobody in God’s Palace could compare with Ding Tong. Even his father, the former 13th Divine Prince and the lord of God’s Palace now, was far inferior to him. Ding Tong was unique. How could he be an ordinary person?

  Logically speaking, he should have become the most outstanding person on the entire Land of Divine Grace after 15 years.

  But why was he unknown to the public?

  Ding Hao shook his head and stopped thinking about it. One day, everything would be clear.

  A behemoth like God’s Palace was really too powerful and terrifying. Even if the five major forces of the Human Clan on the Land of Infinity such as the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost of the Human Clan, the Great Leiyin Monastery, and the Super Divine Hall joined forces, they were far inferior to God’s Palace. There was still a long way to go if Ding Hao wanted to avenge his parents.

  “Well, do you know why the eldest Divine Prince betrayed the God’s Palace that year?” Ding Hao asked again.

  Lei Tingchan shook her head and said, “Senior Brother Ding seems to be very interested in those years.”


  Ding Hao smiled and said, “I’m just curious.”


  Lei Tingchan said, “It is said that the eldest Divine Prince coveted the divine throne of the Gods’ Palace and secretly plot a rebellion. However, his intention was exposed by the 13th Divine Prince, so the lord of the Gods’ Palace was furious at that time and hurt the eldest Divine Prince and his wife seriously. As for the truth, everyone put forward his own guess. I heard about it from some wandering bards and folks, which may not be the fact.”


  She had been indifferent to everything all the time. When she came to the Land of Divine Grace, a world that she had never been to, the only belief in her mind was to return to the Land of Infinity as soon as possible. Therefore, she didn’t care much about the stories and legends of this world, nor did she deliberately collect information about it.

  Thinking of it, Ding Hao stopped asking.

  Lei Tingchan had been detained in the City Lord’s Mansion of the Northern Land City for nearly a year. During this period, she knew nothing about the outside world, so she wouldn’t know that more so-called reincarnated demon stars had come to this world in the past half a year.

  Now Ding Hao was surer of his speculation that Lei Tingchan had been imprisoned in the City Lord’s Mansion for some reason and voluntarily suffered the horrible torture. Otherwise, with her strength of the Martial Grand Emperor Realm, she would not have been trapped by a person like Mo Yuncong, the city lord of the Northern Land City.
