Chapter 1232 - If Not Me, Then Who?

Panda Novel

Exterminate!

The moment Duan Dong River gave this order, all the great beings from the three reincarnation eras and Two Holy Lands gathered in the life and death corridor felt a tremble in their hearts. Other than the Hong Alliance, all the other great beings felt an upsurge of anxiety, rage, reluctance, and many other emotions. Long years spent studying had brought them to a belief that the mere additional one to two years of studying was not much of an advantage. Thus, Luo Feng would not constitute much of a threat.

What they had not expected was that the first to reach the basic requirement would be Luo Feng!

The great beings were all full of rage and anxiety.

“Big trouble.”

“This is a terrible situation.”

“That loathsome human! Detestable. Teacher Origin has ordered us to seize that inheritance at all cost.”

The universe masters from Purple Moon Holy Land were transmitting voices to one another, And Deer Bug Master wore a deep frown as he transmitted his voice, saying, “I am at my wit’s end. From the very beginning, Duan Dong River has favored Luo Feng, and now, Luo Feng is the first to reach the requirements of Rhinoceros Emperor Game; the fast will only get faster. If this continues, he will be in an even more advantageous position! By that time, no matter how eager we are to obtain that inheritance, our chances will be greatly reduced…”

“Deer Bug Master, how about we kill Luo Feng?”

“Yes, Deer Bug Master, we shall kill him.”

“Even if we were to be annihilated by Duan Dong River… we must also kill Luo Feng and destroy the slightest chance that he and the human race have.”

Deer Bug Master had another take on the matter. “No rush,” he said. “Regarding this matter, we are not the only anxious ones. East Emperor Holy Land is equally uptight about it. The most anxious ones, though, are from the first reincarnation era. With their doomsday drawing near… if Luo Feng manages to seize this inheritance, that would be the same as destroying their chance of transcending their first reincarnation era. They will act to prevent him from succeeding! Besides, from how I see it, breaking open that shadow palace is no easy feat.”

******

All groups of top powers were secretly transmitting while pondering their best course of action.

Duan Dong River showed indifference as he looked down at them, continuing to say, “The human, Milky Way, is now under the guardianship of my secret technique. No matter how you all attack, it will be impossible to break down the protection to hurt him. So it is better not to court your own doom! Comprehending Rhinoceros Emperor game is a long process. Continue to work hard. The more stages you comprehend, the greater your chance of receiving the inheritance. If anyone can decode up to the 6,000the stage… you can receive the inheritance from a pulse on my Duan Dong River right away!”

Duan Dong River scanned everyone beneath him.

Everyone seemed peaceful. This requirement of passing the 6,000th stage was one that Duan Dong River would repeat for every batch of candidates. Newcomers were very passionate when they first arrived, but as they started to comprehend, they realized that the difficulty level of comprehending 6,000 stages was unbelievably difficult; one could only dream.

“6,000 stages?” Second True Master sighed. “How difficult would that be? I have only comprehended up to the 1,005th stage, now. Seventh True Master is still stuck at the bottleneck of the 1,000th stage. Every 1,000 stages is a great leap in level of profundity. This 1,001st to the 2,000th stage would be even more difficult to understand. I don’t know what the lowest baseline is. I have comprehended up to the 1,005th stage, which is already the highest among all of my Divine Eye Clan but still not enough to meet Duan Dong River’s baseline requirement. Yet, Luo Feng has met that demand. Could it be that Luo Feng has comprehended more than I have? Or are the demands different for universe masters and universe supreme masters?”

******

Duan Dong River looked towards Luo Feng and said, “Human Milky Way, the number of stages you have decoded so far has barely reached my baseline requirement. Continue working harder! The more you decode, the better it will be for you…”

“Yes, Lord Duan Dong River.” Luo Feng gave a slight bow.

Duan Dong River nodded.

Hua!

Then he vanished right away. Thereafter, there was an uproar within the entire life and death corridor. Everyone started to discuss the situation.

Luo Feng surveyed his surroundings and saw quite a few great beings throwing looks of resentment, enmity, murderous intentions, and the like in his direction. He could not hold back a grin as he said, “Want to kill me? Come on, I will not retaliate! Just like before, I will let you all attack within fighting back at all.”

“Detestable.”

“What arrogance.”

“Bastard.”

Quite a few great beings from the top powers gritted their teeth out of a sense of helplessness. Previously, they still dared to attack, but now… Duan Dong River had made it clear that the moment they attacked, they would be eliminated and then exterminated! Moreover, Duan Dong River had vowed solemnly that, under the guardianship of that shadow, no great being present would be able to break through it.

“Haha…” Luo Feng laughed as his gaze swept over every universe master that had attacked him before. The provocation in his eyes was blatant.

This made the universe masters even more furious. But they knew that Luo Feng was doing all this intentionally. If they really did attack, they would be falling into his trap.

“Previously, they attacked me so brazenly. Now, they are scared.” Luo Feng shook his head. Being under the watchful eyes of close to 10,000 life forms of various clans from the three great reincarnation eras and the two Holy Lands… He sighed. “How ridiculous this is. My time is too precious to waste it on all you. I am going to continue comprehending. This inheritance, I am determined to make it mine.”

With that, Luo Feng sat down cross-legged and resumed his silent comprehension.

The hazy golden shadow palace enshrouded Luo Feng as though it were a gigantic canopy.

******

The great beings from various clans, especially the ones from the first reincarnation era and the Two Holy Lands, had moved nearer to the shadow palace to feel it more thoroughly, and they all felt an aura that made them tremble in fright! Unquestionably, this guardianship by a secret technique was so terrifying that universe masters who had yet to act had already lost all confidence.

They were all anxious and furious, but there was nothing they could do. This made them hate Luo Feng even more!

“Depriving our clan of the chance of transcending reincarnation! Detestable!”

“You should go and die.”

One by one, their eyes glared at Luo Feng.

Luo Feng swept his surroundings and grinned and closed his eyes. He could not be bothered with them.

He had become a target of public criticism—nothing new to him!

Since Duan Dong River’s outright display of special attention toward Luo Feng, groups of top powers had been surrounding him with attacks… Since things had already gotten ugly, there would be no need to bother himself with them. The real opportunity was right before him. He had to march fearlessly onward without flinching! There was no need to bother so much…

This inheritance will belong to no one else but me, Luo Feng! Are you all angry? Threatening me? Threaten as you please. I, Luo Feng, fear you not! I shall do my very best to comprehend this Rhinoceros Emperor Game as fast as I can. Then I will get ahold of the inheritance this time!

******

In the virtual universe, shrouded by a winding haze, stood many stone pillars with three-dimensional virtual shadows.

Luo Feng stood before the three-dimensional virtual shadow on the 1,001st endgame, pondering. Not too far from him, a man dressed in a white robe was looking at the 2,001st endgame.

“Luo Feng.”

“Luo Feng. Hahaha.”

“Such great news, yet you did not tell us.”

Suddenly, a few figures appeared from not too far away. It was Huge Axe Creator and Primal Chaos City Leader, the leaders of great beings from the human race. There were also Darkness Master, Ice Mountain Master, Remote Lord Master, and Long Yan Master. All of them wore happy expressions.

Luo Feng stood up to welcome them.

“We just heard.” Huge Axe Creator was laughing heartily, and his voice was gleeful. “You actually met Duan Dong River’s expectations! You are the first to achieve this! It is always said that ‘the fast get faster.’ With the passage of time, you will get to an even more advantageous position. You are the most hopeful candidate for the inheritance this time. You should not bother with anything else. Do not fret about the threats from the other groups of powers; at most, we humans can just remain in the primal universe. Haha… With this inheritance, it will be possible for the human race to transcend the two holy lands in the future. Even though I have never heard of this, why else would the two holy lands be so fixated over this inheritance?”

“That’s right.” Primal Chaos City Leader nodded, too. “Let’s not bother ourselves with the rest. We should focus on seizing that inheritance!”

“Yes, Teacher.” Luo Feng also nodded. With a grin, he said, “There is nothing I can do even if they were to create disturbances now.”

“Good, good, good,” Huge Axe said. “We shall not bother you further. Go on with your comprehending!”

“We are just here to congratulate you.” Darkness Master also gave him a rare smile. “This is humanity’s greatest opportunity. Such an opportunity is hard to come by—probably one in several hundreds and thousands of reincarnation eras. It would be a sin to let it pass through our fingers.”

“We shall pin our hopes on you!” Remote Lord Master shouted.

Ice Mountain Master, who stood to the side, also gave words of encouragement.

The group of great beings was talking to Luo Feng… Yet all of them, including Luo Feng, were oblivious to the presence of a man in a white robe, standing a short distance away, watching them in silence.

The man in white robe gently shook his head with a sigh. “They have to fight on for all of humanity, which depended on them for everything, and I could only watch on helplessly.”

For countless years, he had observed how humanity had met with various dangers, but there was nothing he could do because he was eternally suppressed. There was no way out for him.

And because of this, he—Teacher Origin—might have gone to various places and even attended the human race’s conferences or the Hong Alliance’s conferences. Yet not a single being knew he was there!

The virtual universe… He was its owner. In the virtual universe, he was omnipotent.

“Luo Feng, continue to do your best,” the man in white robe whispered.

No matter how powerful he was, the fight against the primal universe origin had left him with many afterthoughts; the time that had gone by since he had been eternally suppressed had made him stronger and more powerful. Now, he was even fully confident of being able to break through a reincarnation era. Yet all was too late. Being eternally suppressed, there was nothing more he could do.

“Primal universe, I am not ready to bow my retreat yet. Never! So long as there is a trace of a chance, I will fight to the very end!”

A fearsome glint flashed through his eyes as the man in the white robe redirected his attention to studying and comprehending the Rhinoceros Emperor Game in silence.

******

As time passed, things got peaceful and quiet within the life and death corridor of the Boat of Mausoleum. Every group of power gathered to study the Rhinoceros Emperor Game.

Since Luo Feng had met Duan Dong River’s expectations, naturally, he was more at ease.

He had decided to change his method of comprehending.

For the past 500 years, he had been comprehending diligently, yet the more he studied, the more he realized that the Rhinoceros Emperor Game and secret techniques had a common point. Previously, Luo Feng had been doing all he could to decode the game. Thus, he did not dare to try, but now… Luo Feng had decided that 80 percent of the time, he would spend on studying the Rhinoceros Emperor Game, and the remaining 20 percent would be spent on studying the secret technique hidden within the secret space in the ninth abyss.

Secret technique and Rhinoceros Emperor Game were in contrast with one another.

An important thing to know: Traveling from the Ninth Abyss to the space of the black-striped stone pillars would take a few hundred years! From the space of the black-striped stone pillars to Flame Ice Region would also take a few hundred years!

Especially when the time velocity over at the space of the black-striped stone pillars was 3,000 times, which meant that he had already spent an extremely long time studying the diagram of secret engravings and had long finished cultivation of the seventh stage of Beast God path, even to the extent of nearing completion! Luo Feng had paused his cultivation of the Beast God path because he was nearing complete cultivation.

But the moment he completed it, perhaps he would be able to become a universe master!

The pair of white wings that he badly wanted! He needed to be a universe knight to own it!

He needed to receive Duan Dong River’s inheritance! The identity of a universe knight would add to his advantage! As for the laws… Luo Feng had stopped cultivating them.

His achievement in secret techniques had reached the pinnacle level of universe masters where he had created six types of strongest secret techniques. He was near to creating a combination of his strongest secret techniques.

“I will spend 80 percent of my time studying the Rhinoceros Emperor Game. I will spend the remaining 20 percent of the time studying secret techniques. Perhaps, when I compare and contrast them both… my speed of comprehension will get much faster. And I can occasionally take some time to continue honing my willpower. Up until today, my willpower is unable to break through the level of a universe supreme master… If my willpower can evolve up to a new level, my studies on secret techniques may get even faster.”
