Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 423 The Rhinoceros Emperor's Scheme

After receiving news of Duan Donghe's legacy in the primordial universe, other forces in the cosmic sea also received the news.

On the other side of the Eastern Emperor Holy Land universe, the Eastern Emperor, who rarely appears, made a rare appearance, sending his subordinate, the Northern True Star Lord, along with 20 Universe Lords, 200 Universe Venerables, and 2000 Immortals to the Universe Ship.

Purple Moon, the progenitor of the Purple Moon Holy Land universe, also appeared and issued an order that all the powerful figures within the Holy Land must obtain the inheritance of Duan Donghe.

The powerful figures in both sacred universes are actually quite strange.

Why would two progenitors who have already transcended worldly concerns still be interested in a legacy within a cosmic sea?

Of course.

They had doubts in their hearts, but dared not ask their ancestor.

While the two holy lands were carrying out their cosmic operations, other forces in the cosmic sea were also taking action.

Especially the Divine Eye race from the first universe era.

Because they had inherited the legacy of an ancient civilization, they understood this better than any other faction—

How powerful and terrifying is a lineage like Duan Donghe's!

The First God and his followers understood that if they could obtain the inheritance of the Broken East River, they might be able to transcend and achieve immortality before their time was up!

Therefore, in deciding who would go to the place of inheritance, they sent two of the strongest beings in the universe—the Second True God and the Seventh True God.

While the outside world was in a frenzy, the corridor between life and death inside the Tomb Ship remained completely silent.

The Lord of Deer Insects, the Lord of Gold, Luo Xia, and Luo Feng flew through the corridor.

They moved slowly, and everyone was very careful.

These people had all received instructions from their respective tribes.

In particular, the Lord of the Deer Insects, the Purple Moon Ancestor, appeared and personally sought out the Lord of the Deer Insects to speak.

What an honor!

The Lord of Deer and Insects is now full of energy for the sake of the Purple Moon Ancestor!

The Divine Eye Clan also gave many instructions to the Lord of the Golden Square, urging him to do his utmost.

"spell!"

"Fight for a sliver of hope!"

"The Purple Moon Ancestor has actually appeared in person. This is probably the most glorious moment in my life as a deer insect. I will definitely do my best."

"My race of the Divine Eyes is nearing its end, and every God is fighting desperately for the continuation of our race! I must also do something!"

Both the Lord of the Deer and the Lord of the Gold have gone mad.

Compared to them, Luo Xia and Luo Feng were much calmer.

As the flight progressed, the corridor became wider and brighter. Gradually, stone pillars began to appear on both sides of the corridor, each topped with a phantom image of a cube, a pyramid, or a polygon... Each stone pillar had a phantom image on it.

The stone pillars on the left, though seemingly illusory, are actually solid, containing thousands upon thousands of different fluctuations.

The stone pillars on the right are faint and indistinct, barely forming a skeleton.

There are 123 stone pillars on the left.

There are 10080 stone pillars on the right side.

"This is?"

Luo Xia and his companions were puzzled, so they flew slowly among them, carefully observing the three-dimensional phantoms on these stone pillars.

They soon discovered that the three-dimensional phantoms atop the 123 stone pillars on the left corresponded exactly one-to-one with the three-dimensional phantoms atop the first 123 stone pillars on the right.

On the left, a three-dimensional, ethereal image appears, solid and complete, resembling the Great Wall.

The three-dimensional phantom on the right is merely a skeleton, much like the Great Wall with many bricks removed, making it appear precarious.

"There are only 123 seats on the left, but so many on the right..."

Each three-dimensional phantom has a large number of different colors, radiating millions of rays of light.

For a moment, the entire corridor was breathtakingly beautiful, like a fairyland.

Luo Xia and his three companions continued forward and soon reached the end.

This is in front of the 10080th stone pillar on the right. Suddenly, the light condensed and transformed into a human figure, which was none other than Duan Donghe.

"grown ups."

The Lord of Deer and the Lord of Gold bowed in respect.

Luo Feng and Luo Xia also bowed.

Duan Donghe's gaze fell upon the three-dimensional, illusory figures supported by stone pillars before him. He sighed deeply and asked, "Can you see them?"

"My lord, there are 123 three-dimensional phantoms on the left and 10080 on the right. The ones on the left are perfect... seemingly containing secret techniques. The ones on the right, however, are all incomplete."

"This is what the Lord of the Golden Faction replied."

The Lord of the Deer and Insects also said, "The 123 illusory figures on the right side correspond exactly to the 123 illusory figures on the left side."

"right."

Duan Donghe gazed at the dazzling, three-dimensional phantoms radiating countless rays of light, his eyes hazy, as if lost in memories, and murmured:

"This is my hometown, and it's also the most popular form of entertainment in my civilization, a means of cultivating and honing one's comprehension. Any major power or special inheritance will generally use it to test the comprehension of their candidates. It's called the Rhinoceros Emperor's Game!"

"The Rhinoceros King's Bureau?"

The Lords of the Deer and Insects listened attentively.

"The Rhinoceros Emperor Bureau was created by an ancient and powerful being, the 'Rhinoceros Emperor,' before his demise, with all his might."

"The Rhinoceros Emperor's life was truly tragic. He was a true hero, but in the end... However, the Rhinoceros Emperor's actions ensured that he would be remembered by all the strong in our civilization. Of course, his strength far surpassed mine."

"After his death, this game, the Rhinoceros Emperor's Game, was passed down. At first, countless powerful people only regarded it as a form of entertainment, but later they discovered that it required extremely high comprehension! Moreover, studying the Rhinoceros Emperor's Game regularly can also improve comprehension! In our civilization, from newborn children to the highest beings, everyone enjoys playing a game."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng couldn't help but look at his younger brother.

From the moment he flew over and saw the Rhinoceros Bureau, Luo Xia had been looking thoughtful.

In terms of "comprehension", Luo Feng believed that among everyone present, no one could compare to Luo Xia.

"The Rhinoceros King's Endgame consists of 10081 basic endgame puzzles."

"There are 10080 puzzles on the right, which means you need to solve them! The puzzles on the left are perfect solutions! Complete the first 123 puzzles to solve the puzzle."

Luo Feng and the others nodded.

"By studying the solutions to the first 123 problems... you should be able to discover its fundamental and mysterious rules."

"If you can't even grasp the basic principles, your comprehension is truly too low... Once you've mastered the basic rules, start solving puzzles, solve the 124th puzzle on the right, the 125th puzzle... solve them one by one!"

"I will give you plenty of time."

"You will do your best to solve the problem, but if you fail to meet my minimum requirements by the time limit, you will be eliminated."

"Of course, this time, elimination... means certain death."

Duan Donghe said.

The Lord of Deer and the Lord of Gold were startled.

Fallen?

As expected of an ancient and powerful heritage, these requirements are too high.

It's just a game; if you can't beat it, you can only perish...

"Of course, you haven't truly come into contact with the inheritance yet."

"Only when the solution meets my bottom line and we reach the next hall can we begin to learn about the inheritance."

"Since you have not come into contact with the inheritance, your souls will not be completely destroyed. Only your current divine bodies will be destroyed. If you have avatars, you can survive."

"But once you begin to come into contact with the inheritance, apart from the one and only possible successor, all the others will have their souls annihilated."

"Look ahead."

Duan Donghe pointed ahead and shouted, "Rise!"

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground in the center of the corridor trembled and then began to separate, revealing four pillars of light radiating colorful glow.

"These four pillars belong to the four of you respectively."

Duan Donghe looked at Luo Xia, Luo Feng, the Lord of the Deer Insects, and the Lord of the Golden Square.

"Once you have grasped the profound rules, you can begin to solve the puzzle, starting with the 124th puzzle. Draw the complete puzzle directly with your divine power and transmit it to this crystal pillar. If you successfully solve the puzzle, the crystal pillar will notify you. If you fail, the crystal pillar will not react at all."

"Go."

"Time may be long, but it is finite."

"If any of you can solve 6000 puzzles within the limited time, you will directly receive the inheritance of my Duan Donghe lineage!"

"Of course, once the number of cases reaches 6000... the future is bound to be limitless, and their future achievements will definitely surpass mine."

"However, I doubt any of you can do it."

"Achieve the minimum requirements within the limited time. The one who solves the most problems in the end... will have an advantage when passing on the legacy."

Duan Donghe glanced at Luo Feng and the other three, and then his figure vanished into thin air.

Luo Feng thought to himself:

"Duan Donghe probably doesn't understand Xia's comprehension, does he? With his comprehension, solving this Rhinoceros Emperor Formation shouldn't be too difficult. I just wonder how long it will take him to solve all 10081 Rhinoceros Emperor Formations?"

The Lord of Deer and the Lord of Gold were also secretly pondering this.

Lord of the Deer and Insects: It is said that the Ancestor of Reincarnation in the Primordial Universe possessed extremely high comprehension. Since the Genius Battle of the Human Race, he has risen all the way up and became the Lord of the Universe in a very short time... His high comprehension is hailed by the Human Race as the greatest miracle in the history of the Primordial Universe! With his comprehension, he will probably unravel the Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation faster than all of us. We absolutely cannot let him get what he wants; we must find a way to stop him!

The Lord of the Golden Cube: The Ancestor of Reincarnation was able to become a Universe Lord in just over a dozen epochs, so his comprehension must be extremely high. The speed at which he unravels the Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation is definitely beyond my reach. Perhaps I could harass him and prevent him from concentrating on unraveling the Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation... but if I did that, I might die...

The leader of the Golden Faction struggled somewhat.

But when he thought of the tragic deaths of the Shadow Lord and the Witch Lord, he realized that death was inevitable anyway. If he didn't stop Luo Xia from deciphering the Rhinoceros Emperor's Bureau now, he would also die when Luo Xia truly obtained the inheritance.

However, if they can hold off Luo Xia and prevent him from focusing on deciphering the Rhinoceros Emperor's scheme, they might be able to buy time for the other powerful members of the clan to eventually inherit the legacy.

Luo Feng and Luo Xia were talking to each other.

"Xia, your reputation for exceptional comprehension has already spread throughout the universe. The Lord of the Deer Insects and the Lord of the Golden Cube must know about this as well. When you begin to decipher the mystery later, they will definitely try to interfere with you. Do you need me to help you stop them?"

Without even needing to read minds, Luo Feng could guess the methods that the Lord of the Deer and the Lord of the Golden Cube would use.

Luo Xia shook his head and transmitted his voice, "Big brother, you don't need to waste your time on me. They are just two universe lords. I can suppress them with a wave of my hand. They can't cause any trouble."

Luo Feng said, "You mustn't kill them, otherwise you might anger Duan Donghe. If they are driven away and killed by Duan Donghe, it would be a loss for them."

"I know."

Luo Xia nodded, glanced at the Lord of the Deer Insects and the Lord of the Golden Square, and said to Luo Feng, "I just hope they know what's good for them and don't do anything stupid."
