Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 290 Berlan's Changing Mindset

"no!"

Uka jumped up, staring at Rorschach in disbelief. "You've already broken through to become a Universe Master?!"

"Ah." Rorschach nodded, looking at Uka with a smile, "No need for such an exaggerated reaction."

Uka remained silent.

Bolan and Aichen were stunned and had no idea what to say.

After a long while, Uka sat down again with a wry smile and looked at Rorschach, saying:

"How could this reaction not be exaggerated! My God! How many years has it been? We're all either still Realm Lords or have just stepped into Immortality, and you've already become the Lord of the Universe! This breakthrough speed is too outrageous!"

The beautiful Ai Chen looked at Luo Xia and said, "Yes, this breakthrough speed is outrageous! Let alone the Lord of the Universe, even the Venerable Ones—which other Venerable One in the universe didn't spend millions of epochs to achieve that position? But you? Less than eight epochs have passed, and you've already become the Lord of the Universe! It's terrifying!"

Her small mouth was slightly open, her rosy lips glistening with an alluring sheen. Her face was filled with surprise and disbelief as she looked at Luo Xia as if he were a monster.

Bolan took a deep breath, and after Aichen finished speaking, he stared at Luo Xia and said with a sigh, "I thought I could catch up with you, but I didn't expect you to have left me far behind..."

When he lost to Rorschach in the Genius Battle, Berlan was somewhat unwilling to accept it. He always felt that once he was on the right path, he would be able to catch up with Rorschach's progress very quickly.

But then...

The reality was completely opposite to what he had expected.

While he was still struggling to comprehend the laws at the realm master level, Luo Xia had already easily broken through to immortality.

Moreover, once he breaks through to immortality, he can kill the Cosmic Venerable of the Machine Race.

This is terrifying, possessing the strength of a cosmic sovereign even at the immortal stage.

Later on, Berlan felt even more suffocated.

Because not long after becoming immortal, Rorschach directly broke through to become a Cosmic Venerable.

It is important to understand that breaking through from Immortal to Cosmic Venerable is extremely difficult.

One must possess sufficient talent and effort to have even the slightest chance of becoming a cosmic master!

The immortals from the Genius Battle back then all had high hopes for Bolan, believing that he could become a cosmic lord in the future.

Berlan himself thought so too.

However, as his realm improved, Berlan discovered that even if he had the talent to become a Cosmic Venerable, he would still have to put in enough effort, and it would probably take millions of epochs before he could become a Cosmic Venerable.

As for breaking through from a Universe Venerable to a Universe Lord, the difficulty is even more terrifying!

Even Berlan himself didn't think he could become the ruler of the universe.

Because that's too difficult!

His talent may not be enough.

Of course, based on Berlan's understanding of Rorschach, he knew that it was certain that he would become the Lord of the Universe. As long as he did not perish along the way, he would definitely become the Lord of the Universe in the future.

But he never expected this.

Rorschach became the ruler of the universe in such a short time!

Eight eras.

It's only been a little over 80,000 years.

In such a short time, it might only be enough for a top genius to break through from a Domain Lord to a Realm Lord!

But in just that short time, Rorschach went from being a cosmic-level being to becoming the current ruler of the universe!

Such incredible talent is truly enviable!

"The primordial universe is too kind to you!"

"How much pampering do I have to give you such incredible talent from birth! With your rate of advancement and level of talent, you can't just be called the strongest genius in human history; you're the most terrifying genius since the birth of the primordial universe!"

Uka loudly voiced what Berlan and Aichen were thinking.

"Rorschach, you are the greatest miracle of the primordial universe!" Aichen added.

It's truly a miracle that Rorschach was able to rise to become a master of the universe in such a short time!

Luo Feng smiled and said, "That sounds familiar... Hmm, Babata said the same thing about Xia when he was on Earth, saying that he was the greatest miracle since the birth of humankind! Now that I think about it, Babata's assessment was absolutely correct."

"If you keep praising me like this, I'll be so happy I'll lose my bearings," Rorschach said with a smile.

The atmosphere at the subsequent banquet was quite pleasant.

Because they were all geniuses from the same year's Genius Battle, although there were some conflicts among the contestants in that year's competition, that was normal. After leaving the competition, they got along very well because of their shared aspirations and their status as contestants from the same year.

Berlan thoroughly enjoyed the banquet.

He felt somewhat lost when he left.

This sense of melancholy accompanied him until he returned to his palace, where he finally calmed down.

"That guy was truly a miracle."

Whispering, Berlan finally let go of his obsession with catching up with Rorschach.

This obsession had been buried in his heart ever since the end of the Genius Battle.

Now that his obsession has dissipated, he feels enlightened and as if a heavy burden has been lifted from his body.

"Rorschach's talent is simply superhuman," Berlan chuckled. "Using him as a comparison is just making things harder for yourself. As the teacher said, it's enough to compare yourself to yourself, to be stronger and more accomplished every day, every moment, than you were before."

"Rorschach has always followed his path."

"Now, it's time for me to give up trying to keep up with him and go on my own path!"

boom!

These thoughts flashed through Berlan's mind one by one.

Then, as if some kind of constraint on him had been lifted, he entered a state of enlightenment. Terrifying spatial fluctuations pulsed around him with Berlan's breathing, as if the space itself had come alive.

"This child... has finally figured it out."

In the distance, a powerful figure secretly observing Berlan murmured softly, a gratified smile on his face.

……

Meanwhile, in Luo Feng's temple, Ai Chen and Wu Ka also left.

In the empty hall, only the two brothers, Luo Xia and Luo Feng, remained.

"Big brother," Luo Xia looked at Luo Feng, "can you collect the Star Tower now?"

Luo Feng shook his head. "Not yet. I need to become a Universe Venerable before I can take over the Star Tower. Besides, I promised Master Zuoshanke that I would never rashly take over the Star Tower before I have sufficient strength."

He walked outside the temple and gazed at the starry sky.

The beautiful starry sky is an evolution of the virtual universe. It is not only beautiful, but also contains subtle mysteries of the laws governing the universe.

"The Star Tower has reached the point where everyone in that extraterrestrial battlefield knows about it. Many powerful beings in the universe are eyeing the Star Tower. If I rashly try to take it, I'm afraid I'll cause trouble."

Luo Feng said.

The Star Tower is an extremely powerful treasure; how could he not want to acquire it?

But right now, he doesn't even have the strength to move the Star Tower, so he can only sigh in vain.
