Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 173 The Undisputed Number One!

call--

The rapid loss of energy left Luo Xia slightly out of breath.

He looked at the still-living nine-headed pythons and knew he could no longer hide his strength, otherwise his previous declaration to clear all seven trial towers would become a joke.

Moreover, he is not afraid to expose his strength.

Even if he reveals his true strength to those geniuses, he is confident enough to crush all his opponents in a one-on-one arena battle!

and so--

"field!"

Rorschach murmured, and a gray domain spread outwards from him.

In an instant, it enveloped all the nine-headed pythons.

In Rorschach's view, all the nine-headed pythons slowed down, as if a film was being played in slow motion dozens of times, and his eyes shone with a brilliant golden light.

In a gray world, only he still retains the world's vibrancy and color.

"This is... the Wind God Speed ​​Domain!"

"It's the Wind God Speed ​​Domain!"

"No wonder this little guy was able to gain the recognition of the Wind Origin Law at the Hengxing level! It's actually the top-tier Wind Speed ​​Domain within the Wind Domain!"

"This little guy has given us so many surprises!"

"A nine-fold Wind Speed ​​Domain! It even incorporates the fundamental laws of wind!"

"He passed the second level."

The immortal beings were surprised again when they saw the domain that Rorschach unleashed.

After an immortal being finished speaking, the geniuses in the square discovered that the nine-headed serpents on the second level had all died in an instant!

In their field of vision, they only saw a gray flash. Then, before they could see what was happening, all the nine-headed pythons in the second level of the seventh trial tower had their heads explode, turning into headless corpses that fell to the ground.

The geniuses were stunned!

"What happened?!"

"How come all nine-headed pythons are dead?"

"I just checked, there were still over seven thousand nine-headed pythons left, how could they all die all of a sudden?!"

"What did Rorschach do?!"

Not only were the other geniuses surprised, but even Death God Berlan looked slightly bewildered, not quite understanding what Luo Xia had done.

Only the immortal beings wore solemn and surprised expressions.

An immortal being whispered, "This child has also comprehended the laws of time."

"Yes, when he unleashed his domain power just now, he also incorporated the power of the time law."

"This Luo Xia... is he a disciple of some immortal being?"

"How can it be so amazing?"

"If you think about it carefully, he has already demonstrated the power of four fundamental laws: wind, metal, lightning, and time. Moreover, wind and metal have even gained the recognition of the fundamental laws themselves!"

"That's terrifying!"

"Thirteen, do you know whose disciple this Luo Xia is?"

When asked, the giant in the scaled armor shook his head slightly, looking somewhat dazed, and replied, "I don't know. I only know that he comes from a life-bearing planet called Earth, and is a native of that place."

"Indigenous?!"

The immortal beings were even more astonished.

If it's an indigenous language, doesn't that mean Rorschach might not have had a master to teach him?

He's reached this level even without a master; if he had a master... wouldn't he be even more powerful than he is now?!

All the immortal beings looked toward Rorschach in the picture.

At this moment, Luo Xia, who had unleashed the power of his domain and the laws of time, had exhausted his strength and was now panting, leaning on his sword.

"The third level... consists of 1000 metallic lifeforms, the Dhara race warriors."

Luo Xia murmured, reviewing the detailed information about the Tuoluo warrior in his mind.

As metallic beings, the Tuolu warriors have no souls, and these metallic beings are extremely difficult to kill. Only by destroying their core can they be truly killed!

However, as metallic beings, the Tuoluo warriors possess extremely strong defensive capabilities!

Even if they use fifth-tier weapons, it would be difficult for ordinary celestial beings to break through their defenses, let alone destroy their life cores.

What's even more terrifying is that the life core of the Tuoluo warriors is also an extremely hard metal. With the blessing of the seventh trial tower, even a fifth-tier primal force weapon would probably find it difficult to destroy.

"Fortunately, my stamina is fully restored every time I enter a new level of the Trial Tower, otherwise, in my current condition, I probably wouldn't be able to get past the third level."

Luo Xia murmured as he felt an invisible force descend upon him, teleporting him to the next level.

The third floor of the seventh trial tower.

Rorschach appeared, and in front of him, metallic life forms were taking shape.

Feeling his strength restored, he gripped his longsword, pondering how to break the deadlock.

These metallic lifeforms, like the Blood-haired Mammoth and the Hydra, possess attacks imbued with the power of primordial laws, while their defense and speed are greatly enhanced.

If I can't end the battle quickly and keep at it until my stamina is completely depleted, I'll definitely be sent out of the trial space.

shhhhhh!

Before long, 1000 Tuoluo warriors spawned.

Without further ado, these Tuoluo warriors launched a full-scale attack on Luo Xia from all sides, creating a net that left him nowhere to escape!

Rorschach raised his longsword, and on its blade, a blue wind and dreamlike flowing light swirled.

All immortal beings know—

That is the power of the fundamental laws of wind and time!

"weathering!"

Luo Xia shouted loudly, his longsword flashing across the sky!

The next moment, a blue wind, accompanied by dreamlike flowing light, blew towards the 1000 Tuoluo warriors!

To everyone's astonishment, the metal of those Tuoluo warriors began to weather and decay!

The green-haired girl, Qian Shui, murmured in astonishment, "It's the power of the Time Law! He has comprehended the Time Law, and his level of comprehension is quite high!"

The older brother next to him gave a wry smile.

He had previously confidently stated that Rorschach didn't have time to comprehend the higher laws!

Now, Rorschach has proven him wrong by unleashing the power of the laws of time!

Moreover, judging from the extent to which the bodies of the Tuoluo warriors were weathered and decayed on such a large scale, their understanding of the laws of time was definitely not low; they should be at the same level as the God of Death, Berlan, in understanding the laws of space!

The girl's brother was already roaring in his heart!

How could such an extraordinary genius have emerged in this year's Genius Battle?!

Not only did he gain the recognition of the two fundamental laws, but he also comprehended the most difficult law to understand, the law of time, to this level!

Is this really a human?!

Inside the Trial Tower, the bodies of the Tuolu warriors were weathered and decayed by the power of the laws of wind and time, and before long, their life cores were exposed!

"Now!"

A brilliant golden light shone in Rorschach's eyes.

"Endless Sword Domain!"

A resounding clang echoed throughout the third level of space. The Meteor Sword in Luo Xia's hand burst forth with dazzling golden light, which, along with the power of the Law of Gold, enveloped an area of ​​a hundred miles. The Meteor Sword split into numerous small golden swords, transforming this area into a sword domain!

The people in the square saw it.

Centered on Luo Xia, within a radius of a hundred miles, powerful metal law energy was attached to small golden swords, some of which were suspended in mid-air, others stuck in the ground, exuding a grand and terrifying aura of law.

"go!"

Luo Xia pointed his sword at the Tuoluo warriors.

In an instant, these small golden swords pierced the sky and shot towards the Tuoluo warriors!

Luo Xia's Meteor Sword split into 1000 smaller swords, which perfectly matched the number of the Tuolu tribe warriors!

He wielded the small golden swords with effortless skill.

Only at this moment did the immortal beings and geniuses in the square remember a fact!

Rorschach is a psychopath!

"I just remembered, this guy was originally a psychic!"

"But when he broke through the barrier before, he didn't use any of his mental cultivation abilities!"

"My god, they're only using the power of a psychic now?!"

Amidst the gasps of astonishment, Rorschach manipulated a series of small golden swords, precisely destroying the life cores of the Tuoluo warriors!

These small swords contain a rich power of the fundamental laws of metal!

The moment the bodies of the Tuo warriors are weathered and decayed, revealing their life core, is the moment of their death!

What is an indestructible life core for other geniuses is not a difficult task for Luo Xia, who has been recognized by the fundamental law of metal!

clack clack...

With a series of shattering sounds, one after another, the Tuoluo warriors died!

call!

A gust of wind howled past, and Luo Xia retrieved the golden slender sword, which transformed back into the Meteor Sword in his hand.

All the Tuo warriors around him were dead!

Rorschach passed the third level of the seventh trial tower!

In the square, most of the geniuses held their breath, watching Luo Xia nervously in the trial scene.

"We've passed the third level!"

"I actually passed the third level of the seventh trial tower!"

"Is it now certain that Rorschach is the undisputed number one?"

"Even Berlan couldn't get past the first level of the seventh trial tower, but Luo Xia cleared the first three levels in one go! I can say that he is the undisputed number one genius in this year's Genius Battle!"

"Indeed! I seriously doubt that even in a one-on-one arena battle, anyone could possibly defeat this monster."

"Rorschach has comprehended at least four fundamental laws! And the level of comprehension of each law is frighteningly high!"

"That's terrifying! A genius! An absolute genius! Compared to him, I feel like an ordinary person!"

The immortal beings listened to the discussions among the geniuses in the square and nodded slightly.

Indeed, with the strength that Luo Xia has shown so far, he can be considered the most undisputed number one genius in this year's Genius Battle!

Even the Grim Reaper Berlan cannot compare to Rorschach.

"Given the talent Rorschach has displayed, even on a cosmic timescale, he would be among the top ten geniuses since the birth of humanity, wouldn't he?"

"Yes, definitely!"

"If Luo Xia hadn't perished along the way, with his comprehension, he would definitely have grown into a major figure for our human race in the future!"

"This is the first time I've ever seen such a genius!"

"The Qianwu Universe Kingdom has truly triumphed this time!"

The crowd in the square was buzzing with discussion, while Luo Xia in the Trial Tower was teleported by the system to the fourth floor of the seventh Trial Tower.

Elsewhere in the universe, great beings stand.

They stood there, as if at the center of the universe.

The vast galaxy, with its billions of stars, all prostrate themselves at their feet.

These great beings are also watching Rorschach.

Many of them are key figures in Virtual Universe Company, truly top-tier leaders.

"When the seventh trial tower was originally designed, it was never intended that anyone could pass it at the Eternal Star level."

"Yes, we've hosted so many Genius Battles with the Giant Axe Arena, and no genius has ever cleared them."

"But now it seems that this little guy named Rorschach has a good chance of clearing the game."

"Let's wait and see. If he only has his current strength, it will be very difficult for him to pass the fourth level."

"Indeed, the flying beasts on the fourth level are not only strong, but also the fastest... Even if he possesses the Divine Speed ​​Domain, he probably won't be able to dodge the attacks of those flying beasts."

"Even if he fails to pass, the talent he has shown makes him one of the top three geniuses in all the genius battles."

"Yes, I want to take him as my disciple."

"Forget about it, he's already been chosen by the Lord of Chaos City!"

"Has the Lord of Chaos taken a liking to him...? That Bolan is also quite good; he could be my disciple."

These great beings were discussing, and the stars seemed to twinkle at their words.

And on the fourth floor of the seventh trial tower.

1000 ferocious flying beasts have appeared in front of Luo Xia!

These flying beasts are incredibly fast!

The movement was as if it were instantaneous!

Luo Xia activated his domain, unleashed his ability Divine Wind Kick, used the "Law of Heaven and Earth" to shrink his body, and finally employed the power of the fundamental law of wind to contend with these flying beasts.

"But this can't go on..."

"Simply dodging the attacks of these flying beasts isn't enough!"

"Continuing like this will only drain our energy!"

"When his strength is exhausted, he fails!"

In the square, the geniuses whispered among themselves about the predicament Rorschach was facing.

Meanwhile, the immortal beings noticed the secret technique used by Rorschach.

"Shrinking the body... what kind of secret technique is this?"

"It looks like he created it himself!"

"After shrinking in size, his speed increased significantly, and he seemed to be able to conceal his aura. You see, some flying beasts couldn't even detect Luo Xia's figure."

"A truly powerful secret technique!"

In the scene, Rorschach is dodging attacks from a series of flying beasts.

His movement technique has reached an extremely high level. He not only relies on speed to dodge, but also makes the most of everything around him!

He moved swiftly and skillfully, so fast that only a few geniuses and immortal beings could clearly see Luo Xia's movements; the naked eyes of others simply could not keep up with his speed!

"The design of this seventh trial tower is probably to require people to kill all the enemies in a short time in order to pass the level. Otherwise, the pursuit and siege of these ferocious beasts and monsters will exhaust people's physical strength and lead to failure."

"But how easy is it to kill these monsters who possess the power of primordial laws in a short time?"

"Is this design designed to prevent players from completing the game?"

Rorschach dodged while whispering to himself.

boom!

He suddenly erupted!

The secret technique of Absolute Space has been unleashed!

The power of the fundamental laws of space erupts!

call!

In an instant, thousands of Luo Xia's illusory bodies appeared in the fourth layer of space!

"It's the power of the fundamental laws of space!"

The geniuses and immortal beings outside the world exclaimed in astonishment.

Death's Berlan stared at Rorschach on the screen, muttering to himself:

"I knew it... Having comprehended so many fundamental laws, how could he not have comprehended the fundamental law of space! But how did he manage to do that? How could he comprehend so many fundamental laws at the level of a celestial being? And the level of comprehension of each one is quite high?"

Other geniuses and immortal beings were also astonished.

An immortal being exclaimed in astonishment, "To be able to leave behind thousands of illusory bodies in space, this little fellow's understanding of the fundamental laws of space is in no way inferior to Berlan's!"

"Yes! What's most terrifying is that his understanding of the laws of time, although at a slightly lower level, isn't by much."

"A mere celestial being not only comprehended three lower-level basic laws—wind, thunder, and metal—but also two higher-level laws—time and space! Moreover, the level of comprehension of each law is quite high! How did he manage to do that?"

"This level of comprehension is incredible! Absolutely terrifying!"

"What an astonishing talent! Since the human race has stood in the universe, has there ever been a genius like Rorschach?"

"Perhaps it existed long, long ago!"

"But in this era, Rorschach is probably going to dominate the world!"

"That's terrifying!"

The immortals marveled, the geniuses were astonished.

Rorschach, within the Tower of Trials, repeatedly defies their understanding, creating one miracle after another!

In our sight, Luo Xia, who had transformed into countless forms, began his attack!

Each of his sword strikes was sharper than Berlan's, cutting directly through space!

Wow!

Space shattered, like glass breaking, and endless sword energy crisscrossed, carrying magnificent colors, instantly taking away the lives of all the flying beasts!

The immortal beings were stunned.

They stared blankly at the astonishing scene in the trial screen, which seemed as if the world had shattered.

"He's even cleaved space itself! Rorschach's understanding of the laws of space is far greater than we imagined!"

"Ouch! That's terrifying!"

"His understanding of the laws of space is even stronger than Berlan's!"

In the plaza, Death God Berlan clenched his fists tightly, watching Rorschach slice through space in the scene before him. His body trembled slightly, not out of fear, but out of excitement, and he couldn't help but murmur, "So strong, so strong..."

Inside the Trial Tower, Rorschach collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

He had exhausted all his strength by both expanding his domain and using the laws of space!

Most importantly, he faced situations where he was either instantly killed by monsters or instantly killed by them four times in a row, and his mind was always on edge, unable to relax at all.

Rorschach was starting to feel weary.

If his will hadn't been strong and unwavering, he would have collapsed long ago and been defeated by the Tuoluo warriors or the Feihou during the trials.

"persist in!"

Luo Xia lay on the ground waiting for the system to teleport him. "I'm already on the fourth floor, only three floors left... I refuse to believe I can't clear it!"

outside world.

The giant in the scale armor frowned, looking at Rorschach lying on the ground, exhausted, and muttered, "Damn it, this kid's willpower is almost at its limit."

The immortal being beside him nodded upon hearing this and looked at Luo Xia, saying:

"Ever since this child entered the seventh trial tower, he has been constantly on edge, without a single chance to relax. He's almost at his limit now, and he might be eliminated on the fifth floor."

"Reaching the fifth floor of the seventh trial tower is already incredibly impressive! Since these seven trial towers were established, no one has ever reached the fifth floor of the seventh trial tower before!"

"Yes, Luo Xia is already quite good. Even if he were killed on the fifth floor, he would still be the undisputed number one in this year's Genius Battle!"

The immortal beings discussed it, all expressing their approval of the talent and strength that Luo Xia had displayed.

At the same time, Rorschach was teleported to the next level by the system once again.

The fifth floor of the seventh trial tower.

This is an experimental base for the mechanical race. The ground and the surrounding buildings are entirely made of alloy!

Once he was teleported into the fifth level, Luo Xia's physical strength and energy were restored.

But he was mentally exhausted.

At this moment, standing in front of Luo Xia were 100 silver humanoid mechanical puppets, each eight meters tall!

These mechanical puppets were covered with runes of the laws.

Just by standing there, it exuded a terrifying aura of law.

It's certain that any mechanical puppet released from here to the fourth level could easily annihilate the flying beasts there!

These mechanical golems are incredibly powerful!

hum!

One hundred towering silver mechanical puppets activated their power, their eyes emitting red light, instantly locking onto Rorschach!

They pounced on Rorschach, with a few landing at the rear and firing railguns!

These railguns are incredibly fast; although they haven't reached the speed of light yet, they've already reached one-tenth of the speed of light!

Berlan's pupils contracted slightly in the square.

If he were facing those railguns, he wouldn't be able to dodge them at all!

"I still need to go all out. If I just charge in one by one, my stamina simply won't be enough."

Rorschach activates his domain!

Kamikaze Kick!

Double the talent boost!

His body was covered in golden, mysterious patterns.

He unleashed a speed thirty-two times faster than normal, dodging the mechanical puppet's railgun at an extremely high speed. Then, he leaped high into the air, unleashing the full power of the laws of space!

Luo Xia gripped his sword finger and shouted, "Endless Sword Domain!"

He left behind hundreds of illusory bodies in the space, each one seemingly real.

At the same time, as his words fell, countless golden swords rapidly unfolded, centered on each of Rorschach's!

The surging spatial laws and the laws of metal are in motion!

One after another, small golden swords floated in the air, forming a complex and mysterious sword formation!

"burst!"

Rorschach pointed a finger, activating the power of the laws of space and metal!

In an instant, hundreds of endless sword domains exploded!

Space is shattered like a mirror!

"The Law of Wind!"

The next second, in the instant the space shattered, Luo Xia immediately activated the power of the fundamental law of wind!

Countless fragments of space, under the power of the fundamental law of wind, formed a terrifying storm that swept towards the mechanical puppets!

Tear--!

No matter how powerful these mechanical puppets are, their alloy hardness is limited. How can they defend against destructive forces in space?

With Rorschach activating the power of the three laws, the 100 mechanical puppets were instantly destroyed and killed!

Bang!

Luo Xia fell from the sky, breathing heavily, his eyes revealing his exhaustion.

In the square, the geniuses fell silent.

The immortal beings were speechless.

They had thought Rorschach was going to collapse on the fifth floor.

But then, he brought about another miracle.

No one expected that Luo Xia would activate the power of three primordial laws in an instant, one after another, and with his superb and ingenious combat strategy, defeat the mechanical puppet in an instant and pass the fifth trial space!

Next up is the sixth level of the trial space.

Given that Rorschach's willpower is nearing its limit, can he still pass the sixth level?

Just as Rorschach reached the sixth floor of the seventh trial tower...

The other geniuses who were still challenging themselves in the trial space also failed and withdrew from the trial space.

The only one still remaining in the trial space is Luo Xia.

Only Luo Feng remains.

Luo Feng has now reached the first level of the sixth trial tower.

"Unexpectedly, the last two remaining in this trial space are Luo Feng and Luo Xia."

"While Luo Feng's talent may not be as astonishing as Luo Xia's, it's still quite remarkable!"

"Thirteen! Your Qianwu Universe Kingdom has truly stolen the show in this battle of geniuses!"

"Thirteen is a lucky number!"

"This Luo Feng cultivates the 'Myriad Flows' movement technique and has just broken through to the 'Nine Flows' level, but such a breakthrough is simply not enough to pass the sixth trial tower."

"Yes, unless his understanding of the laws of space reaches the same level as Berlan or even Rorschach, he will likely fail on the first level of the sixth trial tower."

The immortal beings whispered among themselves, turning some of their attention to Luo Feng.

In the square, some geniuses were also whispering about Luo Feng.

"This Luo Feng truly lives up to his reputation as Luo Xia's brother; his strength and talent are astonishing!"

"Ruo Xia is currently ranked first in points. With Luo Feng's performance, he should also be in the top five!"

"Look, Luo Feng is about to lose!"

"As expected, my comprehension of the higher-level laws is insufficient; I simply cannot pass the sixth and seventh Trial Towers!"

"For some reason, seeing Luo Feng fail at the sixth trial tower made me feel Luo Xia's strength even more! Just how strong does one need to be to actually make it to the sixth level of the seventh trial tower?"

Amidst everyone's discussion, Luo Feng was taken away by the Blood-haired Mammoth.

He was teleported to the plaza by the system and found many people looking at him. He lowered his head slightly and checked his ranking.

Ranked 4rd overall.

"The fourth one?"

Luo Feng muttered to himself, not caring about his ranking.

He looked at the only remaining virtual screen in the square and murmured:

"Based on the points, I guessed that Xia was trying to conquer the seventh trial tower, but I didn't expect him to actually reach the sixth floor!"

The higher you go in the Trial Tower, the more difficult it becomes, and the strength of the monsters increases exponentially! Xia actually made it to the sixth floor... Without realizing it, my little brother has become this strong...

His expression was quite emotional, and he silently cheered for Luo Xia in his heart!

If one could truly clear all the Trial Towers, it would be an achievement that would be unprecedented and unparalleled!

The sixth floor of the seventh trial tower.

Rorschach stood on the wasteland, his strength and energy restored.

But everyone could see that he looked extremely tired.

This is a mental state that is impossible to conceal when one is completely exhausted.

Thirteen, the immortal beings leading the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, frowned and sighed:

"This child's willpower has reached its limit. The sixth level is another star beast, 'Azure,' which, although not the most powerful golden-horned beast of the metal element, is still incredibly strong. Luo Xia probably won't be able to get past this level..."

In every corner of the universe.

Even the great beings are whispering.

"This child has discovered the key to clearing the final trial tower: unleash your full power and kill all the monsters in a short time! Otherwise, you'll be worn down and killed by monsters far stronger than yourself!"

"But each burst of full power is extremely taxing on his mind and spirit, and wears down his will. The virtual universe system can help him recover his physical strength and mental energy, but the wear and tear on his mind and will cannot be restored."

"His willpower has reached its limit."

"It seems that reaching the sixth floor of the seventh trial tower is his limit."

"Don't speak too soon. Willpower is one of the most difficult forces for humans to quantify; perhaps he can pull through?"

"Yeah, if he can pull through..."

"Let's wait and see."

……

"hold head high--!"

A colossal celestial beast hovers above the sky, blotting out the sun and resembling a monster that devours the world.

An incredibly terrifying aura emanated from these colossal beasts, each as large as a mountain.

Rorschach's human body was as insignificant as dust in the face of these behemoths.

"Ten colossal celestial beasts..."

Rorschach raised his longsword, and in the reflection of the blade, he could see his tired eyes.

And a thought kept popping into my head: Reaching the sixth floor of the seventh Trial Tower is already amazing! I'm already number one! That's enough, even if I fail here, it's not a big deal...

This idea kept popping into his head, making him want to give up and quit.

but--

Is it really enough to just go to the sixth floor?

"No, you can't!"

Rorschach muttered to himself, looking at the longsword in his hand, his eyes suddenly hardening, and he shouted:

"If this is my limit, then I'm too weak!"

"Not enough! Not nearly enough!"

"This is simply not my limit!"

boom!

A terrifying aura erupted from Rorschach!

Everyone saw that countless golden runes emerged from Rorschach's body, and endless dazzling light shone forth!

"What... what is this?"

Gudong!

Some people swallowed hard in disbelief.

Luo Feng stared intently at Luo Xia, who had suddenly transformed into a figure thousands of meters tall, in the image, and murmured the name of the secret technique, "The Second Level of the Law of Heaven and Earth..."

Inside the Trial Tower.

Rorschach, now a giant over a thousand meters tall, exudes a savage and terrifying aura!

With the enhancement of the secret technique, the longsword in his hand also grew to nearly a thousand meters long!

His entire body was covered in dense, golden runes.

Bathed in the golden light of the secret runes, Rorschach appeared as a giant war god emerging from the ancient wilderness.

Thirty times the combat power!

"cut!"

Luo Xia roared, raised his longsword, and pounced on the 10 terrifying star beasts!
