Devouring the Stars: Blood Sea Demon Lord

Chapter 380 Competition
"As expected of Grandpa Ming!"

Luo Feng, who was hiding inside the Star Tower studying the 'Rhinoceros Emperor's Technique,' looked excitedly at the Underworld Sea and thought to himself:
"Master, the Mountain Hermit, is right. Grandpa Ming has indeed created a ninth-order ultimate secret technique. Even without the inheritance of an ancient civilization, he is confident that he can survive reincarnation on his own!"

"Cold Sword God Lord, study the 'Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation' carefully!"

Duan Donghe continued:
"If you can comprehend 6000 'Rhino Emperor Formations' within three eras, even if you are the strongest in the universe and your microcosm is already set, my 'Broken East River' lineage is willing to pay a huge price to rebuild your microcosm."

Upon hearing this, the various powerful forces were consumed by jealousy.

Duan Donghe had said something similar before, that as long as one comprehends 6000 "Rhinoceros Emperor Formations", one can automatically become the inheritor, but at the time he did not believe that anyone could do it.

Now, however, he harbors such expectations for the Underworld Sea!
How can the major forces facing their reincarnation limit, who have come here to fight to the death for the chance to inherit the ancient civilization, bear this?
As a result, all beings glared fiercely at the Underworld Sea with menacing eyes.

Will you protect me?

Minghai stared speechlessly at Duan Donghe, who had been roasting him over the fire, then pointed to the powerful beings of the Cosmic Sea Realm around him, whose eyes gleamed with undisguised ferocity, and said:

"They will definitely interfere with my comprehension of the 'Rhino Emperor's Formation.' How can I concentrate on comprehension of the 'Rhino Emperor's Formation' without a supreme treasure of the palace type?"

"That's your business!"

Duan Donghe shook his head and said:
"Unless you break through the first level of the 'Rhino King's Bureau' bottleneck, you will be treated the same as everyone else and will not be entitled to protection!"

"Forehead!"

Minghai was utterly speechless.

However, in his heart, he was certain once again that this "Broken East River" had nothing to do with the real last owner of the "Broken East River," but was just an intelligent program that possessed some of the memories of the "Broken East River."

In other words, it may show some emotions, but it actually has no independent consciousness and can only select its successor according to the inheritance rules left by the last master of 'Duan Donghe'.

It cannot violate the 'Broken East River' inheritance assessment rules!

This is a good thing!

"I understand, go ahead!"

With a flicker in his eyes, Minghai waved his hand and uttered an extremely rude remark.

brush!
Countless eyes turned to him; all those who came to participate in the inheritance assessment stared wide-eyed at Minghai in disbelief.

How dare the Cold Sword God say such a thing to 'Duan Donghe'?
Aren't you afraid of being obliterated by the restrictions of the Tomb Ship?
Duan Donghe on the opposite side visibly choked for a moment, but he didn't say anything. He just glanced at Minghai and then turned into light and disappeared.

"As expected, this thing is an AI without its own consciousness, only able to act according to the program set by the last owner of 'Broken East River'!"

Minghai's eyes flickered uncertainly as he thought to himself.

He didn't utter those rude words without reason; he was testing the limits of 'Duan Donghe' once again.

The results of the test reassured Minghai.

The plan works!

"Cold Sword God Lord, you have no chance to comprehend the 'Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation'. Withdraw from the inheritance assessment!"

After Duan Donghe disappeared, the seven strongest beings from the first universe reincarnation era exchanged glances, walked towards Minghai together, and surrounded him.

Gluttonous Demon Lord, Second True Lord, Seventh True Lord...

Upon hearing Duan Donghe's astonishing assessment of Minghai, the seven strongest beings from the universes were clearly determined to expel him no matter what.

"Grandpa Ming, come to me!"

Luo Feng's voice came from the blood-red pagoda stuck at the corner of the crystal pillar.

"Damn it! The Cold Sword God Lord and Luo Feng of the human race are of the same race. If we let him into that blood-red palace treasure, we won't be able to expel him!"

The seven strongest beings in the universe, including the Gluttonous Demon Lord, the Second True Lord, and the Seventh True Lord, reacted instantly.

The Second True Lord unleashed his palace's supreme treasure, the 'Ice Cliff Fortress,' and the other strongest beings in the universe also retrieved their own supreme treasures, all charging towards the Nether Sea. Rumble~~~
The entire corridor was instantly filled with a terrifying, world-destroying aura.

However, while Duan Donghe wouldn't interfere with their battles or whether they disturbed others, he wouldn't allow the inheritors to be harmed.

The example of the Eastern Emperor Holy Land Universe's 'Lord of Mist' who unintentionally killed an Immortal candidate was instantly killed by the corridor's restrictions.

Therefore, despite their immense power, the seven strongest beings in the universe controlled their power and did not touch the immortals, cosmic venerables, and cosmic masters who were hiding in the palace treasures to comprehend the 'Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation'.

"hehe!"

Seeing the overwhelming, world-destroying power approaching, Minghai chuckled and swung out the 'Crimson Sun Blazing Sword'.

Rumble~~~
A colossal golden sword shadow, imbued with the power of the universe, suddenly appeared, deflecting all attacks.

Knowing the rules, Minghai also controlled the power, but did not involve those immortals, cosmic venerables, and cosmic masters who were hiding in the palace's treasures to comprehend the 'Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation'.

The seven strongest beings in the universe, who hadn't even created an eighth-order secret technique, couldn't stop the Nether Sea even with their supreme treasures, as their attacks hadn't reached the ninth order.

Whoosh!
After repelling the attacks of the seven strongest beings in the universe, Minghai appeared in front of the Star Tower. Luo Feng immediately opened the Star Tower passage, and Minghai flashed in.

"Is this the Star Tower in the Seventh Battlefield of the Extraterritorial Battlefield?"

After entering the Star Tower, Minghai looked around curiously.

"Yes!"

Luo Feng said:

"Grandpa Ming, this is the most powerful treasure in the palace. No one can interfere with your practice of the 'Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation' here!"

Minghai nodded.

Palace-type treasures differ from other treasures in that, as long as one is inside them, they can withstand all external attacks without the need for the owner's control, making them virtually absolute defenses.

The Star Tower, in particular, can not only resist physical attacks 100%, but also resist all soul attacks. Hiding inside, no powerful person can disturb you.

"Grandpa Ming, let's have a match!"

Luo Feng said excitedly:
"Let's see who can comprehend the 'Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation' the fastest. Those who are slower will be eliminated from the competition, so as not to perish because there can only be one inheritor of the 'Severing the Eastern River' technique. How about it?"

"hehe!"

Looking at the spirited Luo Feng, Ming Hai chuckled:

"No problem, let's see who understands better!"

Luo Feng's comprehension has basically reached its peak, and he is not far from becoming the 'Child of Reincarnation', but he should still be slightly inferior to Ming Hai. Naturally, he is not afraid of the competition.

Minghai had a plan in mind. Both Luo Feng and he himself wanted to obtain the 'Severing the Eastern River' inheritance, but now was not the time to reveal it.

So, hiding inside the Star Tower, Minghai, like all the other strong individuals participating in the assessment, began to comprehend the 'Rhino Emperor's Formation'.

Hundreds of years later.

Duan Donghe appeared, took the Star Tower under his protection, and warned those who had been attacking the Star Tower.

"Anyone who attacks the human galaxy will be eliminated immediately."

After saying this, Duan Donghe disappeared again.

The powerful beings in the outer universe didn't know why, but Minghai certainly did: Luo Feng had solved the 1000th 'Rhinoceros Emperor Formation,' meeting the first condition for inheritance selection.

In fact, Minghai had already solved the 1928th game, far ahead of Luo Feng. However, he was the strongest in the universe, and to meet the first condition for inheritance selection, he had to solve the 2000th game.

If he and Luo Feng were to undergo the 'Rhino King Bureau' assessment at the same time, he would most likely meet the requirement first. However, he was decades later, and Luo Feng's comprehension was infinitely close to his, so he was temporarily behind.
