The High Evolutionary’s powers originate from his own experiments, as he had used himself as a guinea pig. This transformation enhanced his intellect to the point that it exceeds the potential of any normal human.this allowed the villain to even design his own planet, a replica of Earth on the other side of the sun, called Counter-Earth.
Guardians 3 will explain Rocket’s origins with the High Evolutionary, which ties into the franchise’s theme of family, as the villain would be his creator.

Although it was the High Evolutionary in Marvel Comics who gave Adam Warlock his purpose, it’s likely the pair doesn’t have a connection in the MCU, as Warlock’s origins have changed as well. Instead, the High Evolutionary could pose a greater threat to the entirety of humanity, since his goal is to turn the human race into the perfect species.
