FunTranscript
00:03The gigantic black vessel continued rising from the endless black swamp,
00:08and as it ascended, the entire swamp shook violently.
00:12The scene alone revealed how terrifying this object truly was.
00:15Compared to the boat of mausoleum Luo,
00:18Feng and every universe master nearby looked insignificant in both size and presence.
00:23The black swamp itself was already a deadly place.
00:26Without powerful true treasures for protection,
00:28any universe master who fell into it would almost certainly die.
00:32Even full-powered attacks couldn't disturb the swamp.
00:35Yet this ancient vessel effortlessly pushed away.
00:39Enormous amounts of the black, mud as it emerged.
00:42This immediately raised one question in Luo Feng's mind.
00:45How do you actually seize a treasure like this?
00:47Although countless legends surrounded the boat of mausoleum,
00:51humanity had never obtained one before.
00:53Among all the major forces in the universe ocean,
00:56only the two holy lands were believed to possess real knowledge about it.
01:01That meant almost everyone present was facing an unknown challenge.
01:05Luo Feng first considered the most common method used for treasures,
01:09branding,
01:10it with life imprints,
01:11but he quickly rejected the idea.
01:14If that method worked,
01:15experts like Deerbug Master,
01:17Shadow Dust Master,
01:18and Sorcerer Sprite Master
01:20would have already tried it instead of waiting calmly.
01:23Realizing Deerbug Master probably knew much more,
01:27Luo Feng secretly contacted him through voice transmission so the others wouldn't hear.
01:31He honestly admitted that although he had heard many legends,
01:35he knew almost nothing about the boat of mausoleum itself,
01:38and asked whether Deerbug Master was willing to share what he knew.
01:42Instead of answering immediately,
01:45Deerbug Master laughed and asked why he should reveal such valuable information.
01:49Luo Feng calmly replied that if Deerbug Master refused,
01:53he would simply follow Deerbug Master,
01:55Shadow Dust Master,
01:56and Sorcerer Sprite Master wherever they went.
01:59Sooner or later he would discover the method anyway.
02:01That answer caught Deerbug Master's attention.
02:04He finally agreed,
02:05but only on one condition.
02:07Since no additional experts from Purple Moon Holy Land could reach the Flame Ice,
02:12region and time,
02:14he feared becoming the target of every other faction.
02:16He wanted Luo Feng to cooperate with him until the treasure appeared completely.
02:22Luo Feng accepted immediately, but he made one thing perfectly clear.
02:26Before everyone else, he would cooperate.
02:28Once the treasure itself became the objective,
02:30everyone would compete based on their own abilities.
02:33The two quickly reached an agreement.
02:35This decision also demonstrated Luo Feng's practical thinking.
02:39He wasn't blindly trusting Deerbug Master.
02:42Instead, he was exchanging temporary cooperation.
02:44For priceless information while leaving,
02:47room to compete once the real opportunity arrived.
02:50The chapter then explains why Deerbug Master
02:53remained cautious despite possessing a supreme true treasure.
02:57His treasure was defensive armor.
02:59While it greatly increased survivability,
03:02it didn't automatically allow him to defeat or kill equally powerful opponents.
03:06Against other top-tier universe masters,
03:09defense alone wasn't enough.
03:11By comparison, experts like Clear-Eye Master possessed terrifying soul attacks,
03:17capable of instantly overwhelming an opponent's consciousness.
03:20That type of absolute restraint was often far more dangerous than simple,
03:25defensive strength.
03:26Even though Deerbug Master could unleash power approaching that of a universe,
03:31supreme master within the primal universe,
03:33eliminating another powerful expert like,
03:36Luo Feng would still be extraordinarily difficult.
03:39After Luo Feng fulfilled his promise,
03:42Deerbug Master finally began revealing the truth behind the Boat of Mausoleum.
03:46He explained that countless eras ago,
03:49the Boat of Mausoleum wasn't originally a treasure at all.
03:52It was a working tool created by an incredibly advanced ancient civilization
03:57that once controlled the universe boat.
03:59This is an important piece of world-building because it reveals
04:03something fascinating about the ancient civilization.
04:06Many of the greatest objects found throughout the universe boat,
04:10including the famous black-striped stone pillars and numerous supreme true treasures
04:17originated from this civilization.
04:19Even today, none of the strongest beings in the universe ocean
04:23could move or damage these creations.
04:26According to Deerbug Master,
04:27objects such as the Boat of Mausoleum
04:29couldn't recognize masters through ordinary life imprints
04:33because they weren't designed like traditional treasures.
04:36Instead, they functioned more like sophisticated ancient equipment.
04:40He further explained that hiding inside the Boat of V,
04:43Mausoleum provided tremendous protection.
04:45Physical attacks were greatly weakened,
04:48soul attacks were naturally blocked,
04:50and even virtual godly powers couldn't penetrate its unique material.
04:54However, unlike palace-type true treasures,
04:57it couldn't completely eliminate the force of incoming attacks.
05:00Some impact would still reach those inside.
05:03Most importantly, if someone wished to control the Boat of Mausoleum,
05:07there was only one method.
05:09They had to enter it and locate its core control.
05:12When Luo Feng asked about this core,
05:14Deerbug Master admitted that every
05:16Boat of Mausoleum possessed a different control system,
05:19and even he didn't know the details.
05:22Luo Feng suspected Deerbug Master was hiding some information,
05:26but he also understood why.
05:27Knowledge like this could determine who ultimately obtained
05:30one of the greatest opportunities in the universe ocean.
05:34Deerbug Master then revealed another critical rule.
05:37No one could force open the Boat of Mausoleum.
05:40Everyone simply had to wait until it chose to open its own doors.
05:44Normally that happened shortly after it completely emerged,
05:47although there had once been an exception.
05:50Historical records described a Boat of Mausoleum whose doors
05:53remained shut for more than three.
05:55Hundred eras until a supreme expert,
05:58skilled in refining true treasures finally,
06:01used a secret technique to activate it.
06:03This led Luo Feng to another important discovery.
06:06Experts capable of refining true treasures
06:09weren't simply craftsmen.
06:10Their deep understanding of ancient civilizations
06:13allowed them to uncover secrets,
06:16hidden inside treasures that ordinary experts
06:18could never comprehend.
06:20Finally, Deerbug Master revealed perhaps the biggest limitation of all.
06:25Each Boat of Mausoleum could carry only 36 great beings
06:29into the mysterious tomb.
06:30Even more importantly, once it entered the tomb,
06:33the boat itself would leave and could no longer be controlled.
06:37In other words, obtaining the boat wasn't the final reward.
06:40It was merely a one-time ticket into an even greater opportunity.
06:43As the conversation ended,
06:45the Boat of Mausoleum continued emerging from the
06:48Black Swamp until another palace-type true treasure,
06:52arrived carrying experts from the first,
06:54Ancestral God School.
06:56The story reminds us that,
06:57although the Ancestral God School
06:59exists in every reincarnation era,
07:02its influence changes dramatically
07:04after the destruction of the primal universe.
07:07Without the universe's direct protection,
07:09its members become weaker and far less unified than before.
07:12Soon another powerful expert from the Skeleton Clan arrived.
07:16Without hesitation,
07:18he rushed toward the Boat of Mausoleum
07:20and attempted to claim it using life imprints.
07:22Everyone watched the attempt fail completely.
07:25The Divine Eye Clan
07:26immediately mocked the Skeleton Clan
07:29for doing something so obviously useless.
07:31The Skeleton Clan fired back,
07:33arguing that no opportunity should ever be ignored.
07:36Even if previous boats couldn't recognize a master,
07:39this one might be different.
07:40Besides, they suspected.
07:41The Divine Eye Clan had secretly attempted
07:44exactly the same thing earlier.
07:46The exchange quickly turned into
07:48another verbal clash between two ancient,
07:51rival clans whose hatred had
07:53lasted through nearly three reincarnation eras.
07:56Neither side backed down.
07:58While they argued,
07:59every other faction wisely remained silent
08:02and continued observing the situation.
08:04Another half-month passed.
08:06No additional forces arrived,
08:08leaving only five major.
08:10groups surrounding the Boat of Mausoleum,
08:12the Divine Eye Clan,
08:14Skeleton Clan,
08:16the First Ancestral God School,
08:18Purple Moon Holy Land,
08:19and Luo Feng representing humanity.
08:21No one knew exactly how many experts
08:23each faction had hidden.
08:25Inside their palace,
08:26true treasures,
08:27making the coming competition
08:29even more unpredictable.
08:31Finally,
08:32the moment everyone had been waiting for arrived.
08:34The Boat of Mausoleum completely emerged
08:36from the Black Swamp,
08:38floating freely in space.
08:39Then the enormous cabin doors began to vibrate.
08:42They're opening!
08:43The instant Deerbug Master saw the movement,
08:46he immediately ordered Luo Feng to follow him.
08:49Without wasting even a second,
08:51Deerbug Master's Pyramid and Luo,
08:54Feng's Crimson Tower,
08:55shot forward toward the ancient vessel.
08:57The other factions reacted just as quickly.
08:59Realizing Deerbug Master,
09:01possessed the greatest knowledge
09:03about the Boat of Mausoleum.
09:05Every palace,
09:06true treasure,
09:07instantly accelerated to one hundred times,
09:10the speed of light racing after him.
09:12All five entities,
09:13Luo Feng,
09:14Deerbug Master,
09:15Divine Eye Clan,
09:17Skeleton Clan,
09:17and Ancestral God School transformed
09:19into five streams of light
09:21and flew across,
09:22the void toward the Boat of Mausoleum.
09:25The ancient boat floating
09:26above the black morass was beginning,
09:28to vibrate and tremble,
09:30and then a door appeared on its outer wall.
09:33As the door rose slowly,
09:35the passageway behind it
09:36became larger and visible,
09:38and it was clear that opportunity
09:39had finally opened.
09:41The five streams of light adjusted,
09:43their flight route,
09:44and charged in a straight line
09:46toward that passageway,
09:47but the race immediately turned
09:49into a battle of judgment.
09:51The others understood a simple truth
09:53that governs every competition
09:54for a treasure.
09:55The greatest danger
09:56is not the weakest competitor,
09:58but the strongest
09:59and the most knowledgeable one.
10:01For that reason,
10:02their attacks did not go
10:03toward Luo Feng,
10:04but converged entirely
10:06on Deerbug Master.
10:07Voices rang out in the void.
10:09One said his power
10:10was the strongest,
10:11and he
10:12was the most familiar
10:13with the Boat of Mausoleum,
10:15so he should be
10:16the last to enter.
10:17Another said
10:18he already possessed
10:19a supreme true treasure,
10:20so why should he vie
10:22for another one?
10:23In that moment,
10:24hazy golden shadows
10:25swept toward Deerbug Master
10:27without restraint,
10:29gathering into a large
10:30primitive machete in midair.
10:32At the same time,
10:33countless butterflies
10:34of various colors
10:35flew all over the void
10:37and charged toward him
10:39in a frenzy,
10:39while a white whirlwind
10:41joined the assault.
10:42Even two arch enemies,
10:44the Skeleton Clan
10:45and the Divine Eye Clan,
10:46set aside their hatred
10:47to attack Deerbug Master together.
10:50This concerted action reveals
10:51how even enemies
10:53can become temporary,
10:54allies when facing
10:55a common threat
10:56that is too powerful
10:57to face alone.
10:59Luofeng, by contrast,
11:00was completely ignored,
11:02and being ignored
11:03in such a situation
11:04was itself
11:05a form of advantage.
11:06Under the combined bombardment
11:08of the void machete,
11:09the drunken butterflies
11:11and the white whirlwind,
11:12the golden pagoda
11:14that Deerbug Master
11:15was flying in
11:15disappeared.
11:16What appeared in its place
11:18was his true reliance.
11:19A beast emerged in midair,
11:21covered all over
11:22with black scales,
11:23its entire body
11:25looking as though
11:25every inch of it
11:26was a weapon.
11:27On every joint
11:28of its several hundred pairs
11:29of sharp claws
11:31was a sharp barb,
11:32and its tail resembled
11:33a scorpion's tail
11:34divided into nearly
11:35a thousand nodes,
11:37each bearing
11:38a strange cyan color.
11:39The only part
11:40that looked normal
11:41was its head,
11:42which resembled
11:43a deer-like beast.
11:44This was the form
11:45that gave him his name.
11:47Deerbug.
11:48Master was able
11:49to transform
11:49into this formidable beast
11:51with the help
11:51of his supreme,
11:52true treasure,
11:53and after obtaining it,
11:55he renamed himself
11:56after the beast itself.
11:58It shows how deeply
11:59a treasure
11:59can define its owner.
12:01The beast pranced
12:02in the void,
12:03and it's gentle-looking.
12:04Head let out roars
12:05that cause the void
12:06to tremble
12:07with visible ripples,
12:09spreading in all directions.
12:11The power of those roars
12:12shattered the machete,
12:13the butterflies,
12:14and the whirlwind,
12:16annihilating them completely.
12:17At this moment,
12:18he transmitted to Luo Feng,
12:20saying Milky Way,
12:21Follow me.
12:22Luo Feng's heart
12:23lurched at the power
12:24he witnessed,
12:24but he did not reduce
12:26his speed in the slightest
12:27and answered,
12:28Sure.
12:29From behind,
12:30voices continued
12:31trying to manipulate
12:32the situation.
12:33Some shouted that
12:34Deerbug had gone mad
12:36and had already started
12:38using his supreme,
12:39true treasure.
12:40Others transmitted
12:41to Luo Feng,
12:42asking why he was not
12:43helping to stop
12:44Deerbug Master,
12:46warning him that
12:46if Deerbug got in first,
12:48they would have no chance
12:49at seizing the treasure.
12:51The tactic was to use fear
12:52to recruit an ally.
12:54Luo Feng saw through it
12:55and ignored their pleas,
12:57replying that they were
12:58full of crap
12:59and telling them
12:59to attack him
13:00if they had the guts.
13:01The other three groups
13:03then stopped
13:03paying attention to him,
13:05because dealing with him
13:06would only distract them
13:07from their real obstacle.
13:09With Deerbug Master's speed,
13:11noticeably slowed
13:12by the successive heavy blows
13:14from the Divine Eye Clan,
13:16the First Ancestral God School,
13:18and the Skeletal Clan,
13:19a stream of crimson light
13:21following closely behind
13:23instantly bypassed him.
13:24It was Luo Feng.
13:26This demonstrates what happens
13:28when all attention
13:29is fixed on the strongest.
13:30The one who is not seen
13:32as a threat
13:32is free to move ahead.
13:34The others comforted themselves
13:35by saying not to worry
13:37about Milky Way,
13:38because he had no inkling
13:40about the internal layout
13:41of the boat of Mausoleum.
13:42They believed that
13:44as long as they stopped
13:45Deerbug Master,
13:46everything would be fine.
13:47That belief was their mistake,
13:49because knowledge of the interior
13:50would prove more decisive
13:52than speed.
13:53Deerbug did not ask
13:54Luo Feng for help.
13:56He broke through the attacks
13:57one after another
13:58and charged toward the entrance.
13:59The crimson light
14:00dashed through the entrance
14:01in an instant,
14:03followed closely by
14:03Deerbug Master
14:04under restrictions,
14:05and then by
14:06the Divine Eye Clan,
14:07the Skeleton Clan,
14:09and the First Ancestral God School,
14:11who all dashed
14:12through at the same time.
14:14Inside,
14:15the environment seemed safe.
14:16The great beings
14:17exited their
14:18pinnacle palace
14:19true treasures.
14:20For anyone who could
14:21make it through,
14:22the Flame Ice region
14:23would at least
14:24possess one.
14:25Luo Feng had charged
14:26down the passageway
14:27after passing,
14:28the gate,
14:29and arrived
14:30at an immeasurably large
14:31public square
14:32or great hall,
14:34easily a hundred million
14:35kilometers in diameter,
14:36entirely empty
14:37with an incomparably
14:38smooth surface.
14:40At the border
14:40of the square
14:41were numerous
14:42passageways leading
14:43in different directions.
14:44He was confused
14:46and at a loss
14:47for which direction
14:47to choose,
14:48because a wrong choice
14:50would mean wasted time,
14:51and any wasted time
14:52could mean losing the core.
14:54Control to another
14:55great being
14:56and failing
14:56to get it to recognize
14:58its master.
14:59At that moment,
15:00Deerbug Master
15:00transmitted again,
15:02Milky Way,
15:03follow me,
15:03and flew far
15:04into the distance.
15:05Luo Feng's eyes lit up
15:07and he followed closely.
15:08Behind them,
15:09Shadow Dust Master
15:10and Sorcerer,
15:11Sprite Master
15:12from the Divine Eye Clan,
15:14Liu Zhou Master
15:14from the First Ancestral
15:16God School,
15:17and Jittery Sea.
15:18Master from the
15:19Skeleton Clan
15:20gave chase
15:21almost as a conditioned
15:22response,
15:23their eyes fixed
15:23on Deerbug
15:24because he knew
15:25which way to go.
15:26In an instant,
15:27the four from behind
15:28executed soul attacks,
15:30long-range attacks,
15:31and domain attacks.
15:32Deerbug was using
15:33Luo Feng to absorb
15:34some of the impact,
15:35while Luo Feng
15:36was also thinking
15:37clearly about
15:38his own position.
15:39He realized
15:40he was the weakest
15:41compared to the
15:42three groups of powers.
15:43Even if he managed
15:44to stall Deerbug Master,
15:46he would never win
15:47against the other three
15:48alone when fighting
15:49for the treasure.
15:49But if he followed
15:51Deerbug,
15:51Deerbug would attract
15:52most of the attention,
15:54and he might be able
15:55to gain from
15:55Deerbug's misfortune.
15:57It was a calculation
15:58of survival,
15:59where the weakest
16:00survives by staying
16:01close to the strongest,
16:03flying along the
16:04internal passageway,
16:05six figures advancing
16:06at high speed.
16:08Deerbug suddenly
16:08charged forward,
16:10and rammed one of the
16:11horns on his head
16:12into the side of
16:13the walls of the
16:14revolving corridor.
16:15The patterns on the wall
16:16caved in with a rumble,
16:18and a gigantic gate
16:19suddenly fell from the top
16:21with a loud crash.
16:22The four figures
16:23who charged out in succession
16:24saw the gate
16:25and flared up instantly,
16:27beginning to blame
16:27each other.
16:28One said jittery
16:29Seamaster was an idiot
16:30for getting distracted
16:31and attacking.
16:32Milky Way,
16:33arguing that Milky,
16:35Way knew nothing
16:36and that the crucial
16:37secrets would never
16:38be told to him
16:39by Deerbug.
16:39So blocking Deerbug
16:41was the only thing
16:42that mattered
16:42even if Milky Way
16:43wandered inside.
16:45Another cursed back
16:46that they only dared
16:47to say such things
16:48after everything
16:49had happened.
16:49A third tried
16:50to calm them,
16:52saying there were
16:52many passageways
16:53within the boat,
16:54and they should hurry
16:55to find another one
16:56before.
16:57Deerbug shut
16:58more of them.
16:58This quarrel itself
17:00shows the cost
17:00of poor coordination.
17:02The female member
17:03of the Divine Eye Clan,
17:04Sorcerer Sprite Master,
17:06grudgingly swung
17:07her feet hard
17:08at the gate.
17:08The gate did not move,
17:10but she was forced
17:10to retreat three steps.
17:12She then turned
17:13to leave
17:13with Shadow Dust Master
17:14to search for
17:15another passageway.
17:16Ahead,
17:17Deerbug Master
17:18and Luo Feng
17:19flew one after the other.
17:21Luo Feng said
17:21Deerbug Master
17:22was indeed very impressive
17:24and that he had
17:24his respect.
17:25Deerbug Master laughed.
17:27Having transformed
17:28back into his
17:29original appearance
17:30of a balding man
17:31and said forthrightly
17:33that he had studied
17:34two boats of mausoleum
17:35so far,
17:36so it should not be strange
17:37that he knew more.
17:39He admitted he had
17:40roped Luo Feng in
17:41for two reasons.
17:42First,
17:42to ensure he had
17:43one less enemy
17:44and because
17:45Luo Feng was the only one
17:47willing to be at his side,
17:48and second,
17:49to ensure the other side
17:50had one more opponent.
17:52But now,
17:52he said,
17:53Luo Feng was kind of
17:54useless to him.
17:55Luo Feng was taken aback
17:57and became vigilant,
17:58because since there
17:59were no enemies
18:00from the outside,
18:01the possibility
18:02of Deerbug Master
18:03turning on him
18:04was high,
18:05and his opponent's power
18:06obviously surpassed his.
18:08Deerbug Master,
18:09however,
18:09was very relaxed
18:10and carefree.
18:11He said he had
18:12roamed Universe Ocean
18:13freely,
18:14for a long time,
18:15and was definitely
18:16not like the lunatics
18:17from the first.
18:19Reincarnation era,
18:20he explained that
18:21the boat of mausoleum
18:22was very valuable,
18:23though still lacking
18:24compared to a palace
18:26supreme true treasure,
18:27but superior to any other
18:29pinnacle palace
18:30true treasure,
18:31and with it one
18:32could enter the tomb.
18:33It was very valuable,
18:34even more valuable
18:35than a strange object,
18:37extremely close to that
18:38of a supreme true treasure.
18:40They could go crazy,
18:42but he was not about
18:43to lose his sanity,
18:44because his life
18:45was so long,
18:46and the most exciting
18:47part of it
18:47was to go on adventures.
18:49The most important process
18:50of an adventure
18:51was to obtain treasures,
18:52and it was good enough
18:54if one had failed,
18:55despite putting in
18:56one's best.
18:57Failure meant
18:58nothing at all.
18:59This philosophy
19:00reveals the difference
19:01between those
19:02who have eternity
19:03and those who do not.
19:05For a being
19:06whose race
19:06can live on forever,
19:08the process matters
19:09more than a single outcome,
19:11while for those
19:11whose time is running out,
19:13every failure
19:14feels like the end.
19:15He then transformed
19:16into light
19:17and advanced
19:18down the meandering
19:19passage ahead.
19:20Luo Feng ignored him
19:21for a moment.
19:22Thinking that
19:23if his race
19:23could live on
19:24for eternity,
19:25then he too
19:26could afford
19:26to be so free
19:27and nonchalant.
19:28Dear Bug Master
19:29suddenly said
19:30he had made
19:30a good guess,
19:31that it was
19:32the core room
19:32right ahead
19:33and the core control
19:34should be in there.
19:35He looked at Luo Feng
19:36and transmitted,
19:37Let's see who
19:38is capable enough,
19:39you or me,
19:40to be able to
19:41obtain that core control,
19:42to receive the entire
19:44inheritance or die.
19:46All right,
19:47Luo Feng said no more.
19:49He transformed
19:50into a beam of light
19:51as he continued
19:52flying at high speed,
19:53and after taking a bend,
19:55he stopped
19:56before a huge,
19:57exquisite door.
19:58The colors on the door
19:59were an intertwining mix
20:00of gold and cyan
20:01and its entirety
20:03annotated royalty.
20:04It gave off
20:05a feeling of being
20:06in a superior position
20:07far removed
20:08from the masses,
20:09so that countless
20:10living souls
20:11would feel apprehension
20:12and not dare enter.
20:13But Luo Feng
20:14and dear Bug Master's
20:15willpower
20:16were extremely determined,
20:17and they pushed
20:19the door open
20:19almost at the same time.
20:21The big door opened
20:22with a rumble,
20:23revealing the control room.
20:24Upon pushing open
20:25the door,
20:26they set foot inside
20:27a towering and spacious
20:29hall that was
20:30very beautiful.
20:31Within the hall,
20:32there were various
20:33decorative items
20:34on display
20:34and ornaments
20:35hung on the walls.
20:36It looked more like
20:37a residence of nobility
20:39than a warship's core.
20:40The moment Luo Feng entered,
20:42he did not hesitate
20:43to release a large amount
20:45of godly power
20:46from his body.
20:47He charged about crazily
20:49in a random manner
20:49and scoured all corners
20:51of the vast hall
20:52with his eyes,
20:53flashing traces of insanity.
20:55His logic was simple
20:56and was born
20:57from lack of experience.
20:59He may not recognize
21:00which object
21:01was the core control,
21:02but the boat of mausoleum
21:03was safe,
21:04inside with no traces
21:06of destruction
21:07from the outside,
21:08so he could try
21:09to brand the treasures
21:10he found with his life.
21:11Imprints and get
21:12everything verified at once.
21:13He thought he did not even
21:15need to know
21:16which the core control was,
21:17because he would try
21:18to get all of the items
21:20to recognize their master.
21:22Luo Feng looked
21:23towards Deerbug Master,
21:24who was a short distance away.
21:26The moment Deerbug Master
21:27entered the hall,
21:28he went around
21:29looking for the core control.
21:30When he saw Luo Feng
21:32scattering his godly power
21:33without restraint,
21:35he exclaimed,
21:36asking what Luo Feng was doing.
21:38Luo Feng laughed
21:39and asked what did he think
21:40he was doing,
21:41saying he was not
21:42as experienced
21:43as Deerbug Master,
21:44so he could only use
21:45such a silly method.
21:47Deerbug Master teased
21:48and laughed,
21:49asking if Luo Feng
21:51thought branding with life.
21:52Imprints was the way
21:53to get the boat of
21:54mausoleum
21:55to recognize its master,
21:57if he thought
21:58it was so simple.
21:59He revealed
22:00that he had not told
22:01Luo Feng before
22:02that to get it
22:03to recognize its master,
22:04its core control
22:05was the real method.
22:07Luo Feng's face
22:08changed slightly,
22:09understanding that
22:10getting a supreme true treasure
22:12to recognize its master
22:14was complicated,
22:15which meant getting
22:16the core control
22:17of the boat of mausoleum
22:18to recognize its master
22:20would also be quite complicated.
22:22This exchange shows
22:23the gap between experience
22:25and brute force.
22:26One relies on systematic knowledge
22:28of how supreme treasures work,
22:30the other relies on trying,
22:32everything at once
22:33in hopes that quantity
22:34will compensate
22:35for lack of direction.
22:36Deerbug Master then explained
22:38why he had rallied
22:39Luo Feng.
22:41Besides the two reasons
22:43he had mentioned before,
22:44the third was that
22:45those guys from the first,
22:47reincarnation era
22:48had seen more
22:49and were more experienced,
22:50and maybe among them
22:51there would be someone
22:53who knew
22:53the way to get the core
22:55control
22:56to recognize its master.
22:57They were his greatest enemies.
22:59He challenged Luo Feng,
23:01saying if he had the capability
23:03to find the way to
23:04get the core control
23:05to recognize
23:06its master,
23:07he would not interfere at all.
23:09While he spoke
23:10he was probing around
23:11as quickly as he could.
23:13Luo Feng whispered to himself
23:14that indeed,
23:16Deerbug Master
23:16had a hidden hand
23:17and everything was
23:18as he had expected.
23:20Since it was so difficult
23:21to find
23:21he made a swift decision.
23:23The majority of his attention
23:24was placed on Deerbug Master,
23:27carefully observing
23:28his various reactions
23:29and expressions
23:30to help decide
23:31on his target.
23:32When you lack information
23:33yourself,
23:34watching the most
23:35knowledgeable person
23:35becomes the best source
23:37of information.
23:38Deerbug Master's expression
23:39was one of jest
23:40as he searched around
23:42for the core control
23:43in a leisurely manner.
23:45Very soon,
23:45everything within
23:46that control room
23:47of the vast hall
23:48was searched,
23:49which caused his expression
23:50to change slightly.
23:52Again,
23:52he searched
23:53through every object
23:54in the entire hall
23:55more meticulously,
23:56and his expression
23:57changed drastically.
23:58He said,
23:59how was this possible?
24:00How could there be
24:01nothing at all?
24:02How could the core control
24:03not be in the control room?
24:05He glowered with rage,
24:07as if the various plans
24:08he had made
24:09had all fallen through
24:10and he found it unbearable.
24:12After all,
24:13the worth of the boat
24:14of mausoleum
24:15was close to that
24:16of a supreme true treasure.
24:18Solely the fact
24:18that it was indestructible
24:20had made it second
24:21only to a palace
24:23supreme true treasure.
24:24Plus it could enter the tomb.
24:26Even Deerbug Master
24:27only had one
24:28treasure more superior
24:29than the boat
24:30of mausoleum
24:31after countless years
24:32his Deerbug godly armor.
24:36Seeing how close he was
24:37to seizing the boat
24:38of mausoleum
24:39only to see it
24:40slip through his fingers,
24:41he could not take it
24:42lying down.
24:43Luo Feng laughed gently
24:45and said he was afraid
24:46Deerbug Master
24:47may have miscalculated
24:48that this core control
24:50may not be
24:51in the control room.
24:52Deerbug Master
24:53grunted coldly,
24:54asking what Luo Feng knew.
24:56He explained
24:57that the control room
24:58was where the master
24:59of the boat of mausoleum
25:00resided,
25:02that the great ancient civilization
25:03was strict with respect
25:05to its hierarchical system
25:07with the control room
25:08being where its master resided.
25:10The master was
25:11of incomparable nobility
25:12and no other great beings
25:14would dare intrude.
25:15From the door
25:16they saw earlier
25:17to the core control,
25:19both had always been placed
25:20in the control room.
25:21This was the usual practice.
25:24Luo Feng shook his head
25:25and laughed,
25:26asking how many boats
25:27of mausoleum Deerbug.
25:28Master had encountered
25:30so far to call it
25:31usual practice.
25:32This highlights a flaw
25:33in relying solely
25:34on past experience.
25:36What is usual in two cases
25:37may not be the rule for all.
25:39Suddenly Luo Feng's expression
25:40changed slightly
25:42and he turned to look behind,
25:43him at the doorway
25:44a distance away.
25:46Deerbug Master
25:46also turned around to look.
25:48Four streaks of light
25:49charged through the door
25:51almost simultaneously.
25:53Deerbug Master's
25:54expression changed.
25:55Jittery Seamaster
25:56of the Skeleton Clan
25:57laughed with mockery,
25:59asking if Deerbug Master
26:00was trying to stop them,
26:02saying this was
26:03a gigantic vessel after all,
26:05with many ways
26:06to get about
26:06and more than one route
26:08leading to the control room.
26:09Sorcerer Sprite Master
26:11said by the looks of it,
26:12Deerbug Master
26:13had yet to obtain
26:14the core control.
26:16Shadow Dust Master
26:17urged to hurry
26:18and look for it.
26:19While Liu Zhu Master
26:20did not utter a single word
26:22and moved quickly to search,
26:23Sorcerer Sprite Master
26:25grunted
26:25and with a sudden wave
26:27of his arm
26:27an immeasurable amount
26:29of golden blood
26:30splashed out in mid-air
26:31and divided into countless
26:33golden drops before falling
26:35over every single item
26:36in the hall.
26:37Deerbug Master
26:38snorted and said
26:39the divine.
26:40I-Clan was indeed
26:41worthy of their name
26:43to be aware
26:43of such a verification method.
26:45This scattering
26:46of blood droplets
26:47was a way of verifying
26:48the core control
26:49and once verified,
26:51the next step
26:52would be to get it
26:53to recognize its master,
26:55which was more complicated.
26:56But with a change
26:57of expression,
26:59Sorcerer Sprite Master
27:00asked how come
27:01there wasn't anything there.
27:02Shadow Dust Master
27:03looked shocked
27:04and said there was
27:05no core control
27:06and asked how
27:07that was possible.
27:09Jittery Sea
27:09Master of the Skeleton
27:11Clan said
27:12with eyes burning
27:12with wild flames
27:14that perhaps
27:14Deerbug Master
27:15had already seized it.
27:17Deerbug Master
27:18jeered,
27:18asking if he had it.
27:19Would he still be
27:20standing there
27:21like a fool?
27:22The Divine Eye Clan
27:23was known to be
27:24the top power
27:25of the third
27:25reincarnation era.
27:27When compared
27:27to the two
27:28Holy Land universes,
27:29they were an
27:30extremely close match.
27:31On the level
27:32of Universe Masters,
27:33they were weaker.
27:34But on the level
27:35of Universe Supreme Masters,
27:37they were more powerful
27:38than the two
27:38Holy Land universes.
27:40For close to
27:41three reincarnation eras,
27:43the amount of information
27:44the clan had gathered
27:45was plentiful,
27:46which is why
27:47they were very well informed.
27:48Yet even their
27:49verification method
27:50found nothing.
27:51Now there were
27:52six great beings
27:53scattered around
27:53in that spacious hall,
27:55all in a state
27:56of utter confusion.
27:57Because there was
27:58no core control,
27:59then an intangible force
28:01suddenly befell them.
28:02Deerbug Master,
28:03Lofeng,
28:04Shadow Dust Master,
28:05Sorcerer Sprite Master,
28:07Jittery Sea Master,
28:08and Liu Zhou Master
28:09all turned to look forward
28:11at the hall,
28:12above the one
28:13containing the control room.
28:14There was an ancient throne,
28:16and at that moment,
28:17the intangible force
28:19gathered on that throne
28:20to gradually give rise
28:22to a vague figure
28:23that finally came
28:24into clear view.
28:25The figure looked
28:26no different
28:27from any ordinary
28:28human form man.
28:29Two eyes,
28:30one nose,
28:31and one mouth.
28:32Two arms,
28:33two legs,
28:33black eyes,
28:34and yellow skin.
28:35Its hair was
28:36completely cyan.
28:37He resembled
28:38an ordinary clansman
28:39from Purple Moon
28:40Holy Land,
28:41and there was not
28:42a trace of oppression
28:43from him.
28:43which made
28:44Lofeng and company
28:45look at him in shock.
28:47The cyan-haired
28:48human man
28:49seated high
28:50on the throne
28:51was wearing
28:51simple armor
28:52that had streaks
28:53of floral patterns.
28:55At first glance,
28:56the armor was like
28:56an endless rolling river
28:58with surging waves.
28:59He looked down
29:00with eyes staring coldly.
29:02Then he introduced himself.
29:04My name is
29:05Duandong River Wu.
29:06This sent shudders
29:07coursing through
29:08Lofeng
29:08and the other
29:09five great beings.
29:10Shadow Dust Master
29:11said solemnly
29:12that Wu
29:13was an extremely
29:14respectable title
29:15in that ancient
29:16civilization,
29:17and if a name
29:18carried a Wu
29:18character after it,
29:20that person
29:20must be
29:21someone extraordinary.
29:22Deer Bug Master
29:23jested and threw
29:24a look at
29:25Shadow Dust Master,
29:26saying he did
29:27know some stuff.
29:28But with that
29:29little bit of knowledge,
29:30it was better
29:31to keep his peace.
29:32Because if great
29:33beings from that
29:34ancient civilization
29:35came to know of it,
29:37he would become
29:37the joke of the town.
29:39The cyan-haired,
29:40Human Man High
29:41on his throne
29:42did not seem
29:43to be aware
29:44of the situation
29:44below as he
29:45continued to say
29:46with indifference
29:47that,
29:48descendants from
29:48endless reincarnation
29:50eras later,
29:51when they finally
29:52met him,
29:52he would have been
29:53annihilated for an
29:54unknown number
29:55of reincarnation eras.
29:57Previously,
29:57when he embarked
29:58on this final adventure
29:59with his general,
30:00he already knew
30:01that chances of
30:02survival were slim.
30:04Indeed,
30:04this path was
30:05the most difficult one,
30:06even for the
30:07greatest ship
30:08or the bravest
30:09and strongest
30:09great beings.
30:11Whatever or whoever
30:12was treading upon it
30:13would be bound to fail.
30:14Now that he knew
30:15he was expected to fail,
30:17he did not wish
30:18to put an end
30:19to his inheritance.
30:20He,
30:21Duandong River Wu,
30:22was the 192nd master
30:24of Duandong River
30:25and the sole heir,
30:26generations of ancestors
30:28dying one after another
30:29in battles.
30:30When it was his turn,
30:32the inheritances
30:32had accumulated
30:33for so long
30:34that he lost count.
30:35If he died,
30:36the inheritance
30:37would be cut off
30:38with him.
30:39He had let the
30:39generations of ancestors
30:41down.
30:41He had remodeled
30:42this boat of mausoleum.
30:44It was different
30:45from the others.
30:46Within it,
30:46there were more
30:47dangerous lands
30:48and lands of inheritances.
30:50He continued,
30:51saying he could die.
30:52But generations
30:53of inheritances
30:54of Duandong River
30:55could not die off.
30:57If they were feeling
30:57afraid now,
30:58they might leave.
31:00Otherwise,
31:00the moment they set
31:01foot upon this path,
31:03the dangers in their way
31:04would only intensify,
31:05especially toward the end
31:07when they
31:07came into contact
31:09with the one
31:10true inheritance
31:11from his Duandong River.
31:13Only the one
31:14receiving the inheritance
31:15might survive,
31:16or if none of them
31:17were able to receive
31:18the inheritance,
31:19then all of them
31:20would be annihilated.
31:21The earlier they left,
31:23the safer they were.
31:24The later they left,
31:25especially when they
31:26came into contact
31:27with just a mere
31:28bit of inheritance,
31:30non-descendants
31:31from the generations
31:31of Duandong River
31:33who tried to covet
31:34after their line
31:35of inheritance,
31:36must die.
31:37He told them
31:37to make their choice,
31:39descendants.
31:40The voice dispersed
31:41and the figure
31:42on the throne vanished.
31:43At one point in time,
31:44there was an oppressive
31:45energy over the entire
31:47hall.
31:47All six pairs of eyes
31:49contained craziness
31:50or excitement
31:50or worry.
31:52There was a wide
31:52array of emotions.
31:54The reason for such
31:55emotion was the word
31:56inheritance.
31:57Why were the seven
31:58true masters
31:58of Divine Eye Clan
32:00so powerful?
32:01Because the Divine Eye Clan
32:02once found a complete
32:04series of inheritance
32:05among monuments,
32:06allowing the seven
32:07great true masters
32:09to be able to unleash
32:10an unbelievably strong
32:11power the moment
32:13they joined forces.
32:14That was why among
32:15the universe ocean,
32:16the most precious
32:17inheritance would be
32:18a complete series
32:19where cultivation
32:20could start from
32:22a low to a high level.
32:23But this inheritance,
32:24it was an inheritance
32:26from a pulse
32:26on Duandong River.
32:28From the sound of it,
32:29this pulse was probably
32:31one that ran rampant,
32:33one from the great
32:33ancient civilization
32:34that was extremely
32:35strong and dominating.
32:37Every pulse only
32:38had one heir,
32:39with a name that
32:40contained the Wu character,
32:41to remodel an entire
32:43boat of mausoleum,
32:44given his speaking tone
32:45and manner,
32:46and even to have followed
32:47his general out
32:48on a venture.
32:49This so-called general
32:50must have been a general
32:52from the universe boat.
32:54His status had to be
32:55extremely high.
32:56Obviously,
32:57this inheritance
32:57from the pulse
32:58on the Duandong River
32:59was very precious.
33:01Even if Duandong River
33:02wanted to die alone,
33:04the inheritance
33:04must be left behind.
33:06An endless
33:07and long-standing
33:08ancient inheritance,
33:09earlier generations,
33:11probably much stronger
33:12than the current generation
33:13of Duandong River,
33:15which meant this inheritance
33:16should not be
33:17judged based on the capability.
33:19Of Duandong River Wu,
33:20there,
33:21was probably something
33:22more profound about it.
33:23Regardless,
33:24the conclusion
33:24boiled down to one point.
33:26The inheritance
33:27of that pulse
33:28on Duandong River
33:29was a most precious inheritance.
33:31However,
33:31the moment one
33:32was to tread upon this path,
33:34the result might be frightening.
33:36Once one touched
33:37an inch of that inheritance,
33:39the choice to leave
33:40would no longer exist.
33:42Duandong River,
33:44Wu's voice seemed
33:45to vaguely resonate
33:46within the main hall
33:47of the control room,
33:48which made the silence
33:49within the hall
33:50even more apparent.
33:51Dear Bug Master,
33:52Liu Zhou Master,
33:54Shadow Dust Master,
33:54Sorcerer Sprite Master,
33:56Jittery Sea Master,
33:57and Luo Feng
33:58were all going crazy,
33:59and their eyes
34:00were filled with agony
34:01as they struggled.
34:03Dear Bug Master
34:03was in a dilemma
34:04amidst his struggles.
34:06He was from
34:06the Holy Land Universe,
34:08an eternal being
34:08eternally free
34:09from annihilation.
34:11To go meant
34:11risking that eternity,
34:12but not to go meant
34:14forgoing a once-in-a-lifetime
34:15opportunity.
34:16His dilemma shows
34:17the unique burden
34:18of an eternal being.
34:19When you cannot
34:20die naturally,
34:21choosing a path
34:22that can kill you
34:23is the hardest choice
34:24of all,
34:25Shadow Dust Master
34:26squinted his eyes,
34:27and the single-eyed
34:28shadow behind him
34:29was,
34:30flashing and flickering
34:31with extremely strong
34:33ripples of uncertainty.
34:34He was calculating
34:35the scale of the ancient
34:36civilization that could
34:38create the
34:38universe boat,
34:40where items like
34:41the black-striped
34:41stone pillars
34:42were only one
34:43of many items,
34:44an inheritance
34:45that even within that,
34:46civilization was
34:47one of a kind,
34:49must be unimaginably
34:50valuable,
34:51and the difficulty
34:52of obtaining it
34:52would naturally
34:53match that value.
34:54Jittery Sea Master's
34:56eyes were filled
34:57with insanity,
34:58seeing this as the
34:59one and only chance
35:00bestowed upon him.
35:02Liu Zhou Master's
35:03perfect face
35:03registered traces
35:04of hesitation.
35:05All who were present
35:06were in turmoil.
35:08The same was true
35:08for Luo Feng,
35:10whose entire body
35:11seemed to be going,
35:12out of control
35:13as his godly power
35:14raged and surged,
35:16producing waves
35:17in his surroundings.
35:18He had thought
35:18the fight was
35:19for the boat
35:20of mausoleum,
35:21but the boat
35:21was only a
35:22supplementary item.
35:23The more prominent
35:24part was that
35:26it contained
35:26the extremely powerful
35:28inheritance
35:29of the ancient
35:29civilization,
35:30an object of
35:31great desire
35:32that also entailed
35:33the risk of
35:33annihilation.
35:34He was aware
35:35that he might
35:36have another body,
35:37but given the means
35:38of an ancient
35:39civilization that
35:40dared to declare
35:42that those who
35:42covet,
35:43after their line
35:44of inheritance
35:44must die,
35:46its punishment
35:46would surely
35:47not deal solely
35:48with one body,
35:49he considered
35:50whether to go
35:50or not.
35:51He had gone
35:52through merely
35:53a dozen or more
35:54eras of cultivation,
35:55and even without
35:56this opportunity,
35:57he believed he could
35:58become a universe
35:59master easily.
36:00There was still hope.
36:02But accepting
36:03this inheritance
36:03meant volunteering
36:04for a perilous
36:05adventure.
36:06He was caught
36:07between a safe,
36:08guaranteed future
36:09and a dangerous,
36:10limitless one.
36:11He understood
36:12he only had confidence
36:13that he could
36:13become a universe
36:14master,
36:15but was clueless
36:16about how.
36:17Even if he did
36:18become one,
36:18at most he could
36:19live for three
36:20reincarnation eras.
36:21For true immortality,
36:23he must achieve
36:23a successful breakthrough
36:25of a reincarnation era,
36:26and throughout
36:27Universe Ocean
36:28for countless eras,
36:29only two Holy Land
36:31universes
36:31had ever succeeded.
36:33He recalled
36:33the individual space
36:35within the chamber
36:36of the Black Token,
36:37where a smooth
36:38and shiny stone wall
36:39was filled with.
36:41Information left behind
36:42by generations
36:43of masters,
36:44from nine mortal master
36:45to five chaos master,
36:47and then to
36:47Luo Feng,
36:48a total of
36:4920,295 space masters,
36:52with an unknown number
36:53before that.
36:54Endless reincarnation eras
36:55had passed
36:56with countless
36:56gifted talents.
36:58Yet only two
36:58Holy Land universes
37:00were born,
37:00with a few dozen
37:01universe supreme
37:02masters emerging
37:03every era,
37:04and none achieving
37:05eternity.
37:06Raising his head
37:07to look at the throne,
37:08his gaze was ablaze.
37:09He saw this
37:10as the chance
37:11of a lifetime.
37:12That highly arrogant
37:13ancient civilization
37:14must have
37:15an extremely
37:15powerful inheritance,
37:17and Duandong River Wu
37:18must be ranked
37:19at the top
37:20within the universe boat,
37:21so this chance
37:22must be very valuable
37:23even within
37:24that civilization.
37:25With this inheritance,
37:26he would see
37:27a path much further ahead,
37:29higher than that
37:30of universe supreme masters,
37:32and with its guidance
37:33he could achieve
37:33greater things.
37:34In that great hall,
37:36every one of them
37:36struggled with
37:37their own trains
37:38of thought.
37:39Suddenly,
37:39a foreign aura
37:40appeared.
37:41Sorcerer Sprite Master
37:42coldly permitted
37:43her hidden companion
37:45to emerge,
37:46making it clear
37:47that the final choice
37:48would be his own.
37:49A man in golden armor
37:50from the Divine Eye Clan
37:51appeared beside her.
37:53This was Golden Square Master,
37:55who had been hiding
37:56within the palace true,
37:58treasure while clearly seeing
37:59and hearing everything
38:00that had happened.
38:01Another figure appeared,
38:03a strange,
38:04lofty figure
38:05covered in dark red,
38:07seemingly composed
38:08entirely of blood-red bones,
38:10a great being
38:11from the skeleton clan.
38:13As the factions
38:14prepared to enter,
38:15the dynamics
38:16of the inner region
38:17became clear.
38:18Jittery Seamaster
38:19warned his companion
38:21about the
38:21life-and-death stakes
38:23without forcing a decision.
38:25Respecting his autonomy,
38:27Liu Jo Master
38:27then revealed
38:28her own companion
38:29with a gentle wave,
38:30a burly giant
38:32with eight arms
38:33whose body
38:33seemed made
38:34entirely of stones.
38:35His loyalty
38:36went beyond self-interest.
38:38As he anchored
38:39his fate entirely
38:40to Liu Jo Master,
38:41demonstrating that
38:42he would go
38:43only if she went.
38:44Sorcerer Sprite Master
38:45noted the well-known
38:46pairing of the two.
38:47This moment
38:48reveals the common
38:49practice within
38:50the deep region
38:51of the internal domain.
38:52Unless one was
38:53extremely confident
38:54like Deerbug Master,
38:56great beings
38:56normally acted
38:57in pairs to survive,
38:58which explained
38:59the partnerships
39:00of the skeleton clan,
39:02the Divine Eye clan,
39:03and the first
39:04ancestral god school.
39:06Golden Square Master's
39:07presence was merely
39:08coincidental to the fight.
39:10As the groups
39:11took a tally
39:11of their numbers,
39:12it became obvious
39:13that almost everyone
39:14relied on a partner
39:15to survive
39:16the deep region.
39:17Out of the nine
39:18competitors present,
39:19only Deerbug Master,
39:20who had always roamed
39:21Universe Ocean alone,
39:23and Luo Feng
39:24operated completely alone.
39:25This left a total
39:27of nine individuals,
39:28three from the Divine Eye clan,
39:30two from the skeleton clan,
39:32two from the first
39:33ancestral god school,
39:34plus Milky Way
39:35and Deerbug Master.
39:36Deerbug Master laughed
39:38and pointed out
39:39that this was
39:39a once-in-a-lifetime
39:41opportunity,
39:42one he had never heard,
39:44of even within his
39:45Purple Moon Holy Land.
39:47There were some ordinary
39:48inheritances left
39:50by normal great beings,
39:52but they were not
39:52on the same scale
39:53as Duandong River Wu's
39:55inheritance,
39:56and the little dangers
39:57those normal beings
39:59left behind were not
40:00major enough
40:01to threaten him.
40:02But Duandong River Wu
40:03dared to utter
40:04such absolute words,
40:05so even annihilated.
40:07The methods he left
40:08behind would be
40:09powerful enough
40:10to deal with
40:11Universe Supreme Masters.
40:12He urged everyone
40:13to be thorough
40:14when considering options.
40:15Just as everyone
40:16was going through
40:17an internal struggle,
40:19on the throne
40:19where all energy
40:20seemed to converge,
40:22the cyan-haired figure
40:23took form again.
40:24He asked if they
40:25had made up their minds
40:26after careful consideration,
40:28then stood up
40:29and slowly walked down
40:30while keeping his eyes
40:31on the nine figures below.
40:33Luo Feng and the others
40:34were aware this was
40:35merely a figure
40:36left behind
40:37and controlled by
40:38something like
40:39an intelligence.
40:40As the actual
40:41Duandong River
40:42had already been annihilated,
40:44he pointed to the ground
40:45and ordered the hall
40:46to rise.
40:47The hall lifted instantly
40:48and a large circular
40:49stone tile rose up
40:50to reveal a deep hole.
40:52One glance into it
40:53revealed a sea of dark red
40:54with occasional
40:55contorted red airwaves.
40:57He explained that
40:58if they were willing
40:59to receive that inheritance,
41:00they might go down
41:01and he would choose
41:02the air to his pulse
41:04according to their own methods.
41:06What lay in store
41:07would be various tests
41:08they had to pass,
41:09gradually bringing them
41:10into contact
41:11with the inheritance.
41:12The moment they started
41:13getting in contact with it,
41:15their path would be fraught
41:16with life and death dangers.
41:18If they succeeded
41:19in accepting
41:20all the inheritance,
41:21they survived.
41:22If they were unable
41:23to receive the full inheritance
41:24but merely received
41:26traces of it,
41:27then they must die.
41:28He added that
41:29if they were having cold feet,
41:30they could leave right away.
41:32The gate would not shut
41:33after it had opened.
41:34They could even invite
41:35their fellow clans,
41:36people, and friends
41:37to try their luck.
41:38Because the more
41:39potential intruders,
41:41the better the possibility
41:42of finding the next
41:43Duandong River.
41:45After finishing,
41:46his form seemed to become
41:47nothing but dust
41:48and disintegrated
41:49to nothingness.
41:50The circular stone tiles
41:52floated up,
41:53revealing an endless
41:54dark red passageway,
41:55and the question of
41:56whether to go in or not
41:58hung in the air.
41:59A stream of dark red light
42:01flashed and disappeared.
42:02Upon creating a winding line
42:04in the air,
42:05then flew right into
42:06the deep dark passageway.
42:07This was Redhawk Master,
42:09driven by the desperation
42:10of the first
42:11reincarnation era.
42:12For them,
42:13Doomsday was near.
42:14Yet this was an opportunity
42:16that might
42:16allow one to become
42:17a universe,
42:18supreme,
42:19and break through
42:20a reincarnation era.
42:22Even the ancient civilization
42:23was unable to break
42:24through the restrictions.
42:25But once he got hold
42:27of that inheritance,
42:28it could guide
42:29the universe masters
42:30of his skeleton clan
42:31to witness the birth
42:33of a third Holy Land universe.
42:35For those already
42:36facing annihilation,
42:37any risk is worth taking.
42:39Liu Jo Master smiled
42:40and transformed
42:41into a stream of light
42:43to make her way in.
42:44Followed without hesitation
42:45by Rock Giant Master,
42:47whose loyalty was absolute,
42:49Shadow Dust
42:50and Sorcerer Sprite,
42:51husband and wife,
42:52looked into one another's eyes
42:54and smiled,
42:55then went in together.
42:56Golden Square Master
42:58let out a hearty laugh
42:59at the idea
43:00that he would have
43:00to die anyway,
43:02just a moment earlier,
43:03and went in as well.
43:04In a moment,
43:05all the great beings
43:06from the first
43:06reincarnation era
43:07had entered.
43:09Only Deer Bug Master
43:10and Luo Feng remained.
43:11With the first
43:12reincarnation era
43:13experts already inside,
43:15only Deer Bug Master
43:16and Luo Feng remained.
43:18After a brief exchange
43:19confirming their mutual
43:20intent to proceed,
43:22Deer Bug Master
43:22highlighted the ultimate
43:23privilege of his
43:24eternal lifespan.
43:25He viewed eternity itself
43:27as insufficient
43:28without passion,
43:29explaining that his clan
43:31would not be affected
43:32if he was gone
43:33because the Holy Land,
43:35universe itself,
43:36was eternal.
43:37Throughout this endless era,
43:38this was an inheritance
43:39hard to come by,
43:40and missing it
43:41would bring regret.
43:42This risk might be
43:43the biggest he ever took,
43:45but even if he died
43:46in the process,
43:47he would find it
43:48a worthy death.
43:49Then he transformed
43:50into light
43:50and flew right in.
43:52In the entire
43:53Great Hall,
43:54only Luo Feng remained.
43:56He considered that
43:57if he were annihilated,
43:58being a universe knight,
44:00he still had a chance
44:01of resurrection,
44:02and while the price
44:03might be big,
44:04he could afford it.
44:05Initially,
44:06he wanted his golden-horned
44:07beast body
44:08to take Star Tower
44:09and leave,
44:09but if he was annihilated,
44:12Star Tower
44:13would become an item
44:14without a master
44:15and would drift
44:15about the universe boat,
44:17ending up in dangerous lands
44:18or being snatched away.
44:20If that was the case,
44:21he would take Star Tower
44:22with him
44:23and try his luck.
44:24With Star Tower,
44:25he had more confidence
44:26in dealing with dangers.
44:27He would put in his everything
44:29and take a gamble,
44:30and if he succeeded,
44:32his human race
44:32could live on for eternity.
44:34He transformed
44:35into a streak of light
44:36and charged
44:37into that dark red abyss
44:38without further hesitation.
44:41Flying through
44:41the crimson waves,
44:43one could feel
44:43how distorted
44:44time and space were.
44:46There was a feeling
44:47of flying through
44:47the universe tunnel.
44:49There was a flash of light.
44:51Before him
44:51was a hall
44:52faintly enshrouded
44:53by a light white mist.
44:55The material of the hall
44:56was the same
44:57as that of the passageway
44:58of the boat of Mausoleum,
45:00and the various materials
45:01within the cabins
45:02were all suffused
45:03with a deep gray.
45:05Inside the hall,
45:06there were
45:06Deerbug Master,
45:08Shadow Dust Master,
45:09Jittery Sea Master,
45:11Liu Zhou Master,
45:12and another
45:12four universe masters.
45:14All eight of them
45:15turned over to look.
45:16Luo Feng flew over
45:17right away.
45:18Deerbug Master laughed
45:19at his arrival,
45:20noting how short.
45:22Luo Feng's cultivation period
45:23of only a dozen eras
45:25was compared
45:25to the others.
45:27Shadow Dust Master
45:27then took a kind approach,
45:29suggesting that
45:30with Doomsday still two.
45:32Reincarnation eras away
45:33for the primal universe.
45:35Luo Feng had an extremely
45:36long life ahead
45:37and no need
45:38to fight it out with them.
45:39He implied that
45:40a full retreat
45:41was still possible.
45:42This was not kindness,
45:43but a strategic attempt
45:45to remove
45:46the most talented competitor.
45:48Luo Feng casually
45:48dismissed the suggestion,
45:50stating that
45:51since he had come,
45:52he would not back away.
45:53This shows a firmness
45:54of willpower
45:55that is necessary
45:56for any inheritance trial.
45:58Jittery Sea Master
45:59shot Luo Feng,
46:00a hostile look,
46:01and dismissed his presence
46:02as courting death.
46:03Red Lark Master
46:04of the Skeleton Clan
46:05echoed that hostility.
46:07The Skeleton Clan
46:08was originally
46:09a crazy and cold race,
46:10only united
46:11among their own kind,
46:13treating the rest
46:14of the world
46:14with enmity.
46:15For Luo Feng,
46:16who had such
46:17high achievement
46:18despite cultivating
46:19for only a dozen eras,
46:21there was an additional
46:22trace of jealousy.
46:23In truth,
46:24out of everyone present,
46:25Shadow Dust Master,
46:27Sorcerer Sprite Master,
46:28and Red Lark,
46:29Master were the ones
46:30who hated Luo Feng
46:31the most
46:31after choosing
46:32to take the risk.
46:33They were well aware
46:35that the selection
46:36of an heir normally
46:37places much emphasis
46:38on improvement speed
46:40and comprehension level.
46:41One had cultivated
46:42for a dozen eras
46:43and another
46:44for close to three
46:45reincarnation eras.
46:47Yet their achievements
46:48were comparable.
46:49The logical choice
46:50for Duandong River
46:51would be obvious.
46:53Their only hope
46:53was that the methods
46:54left behind
46:55could not determine
46:56how long a being
46:57had lived.
46:58But they felt
46:59Duandong River
47:00was too unfathomable,
47:02leaving them
47:03full of uncertainty.
47:04Their deepest wish
47:05was for Luo Feng
47:06to back out
47:07as early as possible.
47:08When all nine of them,
47:10including Luo Feng,
47:12had gathered
47:12in that misty hall
47:13and were engaged
47:14in a heated
47:15exchange of sarcastic remarks,
47:18an intangible energy
47:19suddenly started
47:20to gather by their side,
47:22eventually giving form
47:23to a figure.
47:24This was the green-haired man,
47:25Duandong River.
47:26He swept his gaze
47:27across the nine great beings
47:29and announced
47:30that all nine had arrived,
47:31and that they would begin
47:33with the first round
47:34of selection.
47:35Deer Bug Master,
47:36Shadow Dust Master,
47:37and Luo Feng
47:38all felt knots
47:40within their chests,
47:41with no one daring
47:42to claim they could pass.
47:44Duandong River
47:44pointed at a spot
47:45far on the ground
47:46of the hall
47:47and ordered it to rise.
47:48The ground suddenly
47:50split in half,
47:51and a strange machine
47:52gradually emerged
47:53from beneath.
47:54It was entirely
47:55dark red in color,
47:57its surface covered
47:58with many secret,
47:59engravings of various
48:00laws so mystical
48:01that they made
48:02every great being present.
48:04Dizzy from lack
48:05of understanding.
48:06A crack appeared
48:07on the Magi-Cube instrument
48:08to reveal a door.
48:10He ordered them
48:10to go in one at a time
48:12as selection
48:12would be done individually.
48:14The nine great beings
48:15looked at one another,
48:16questioning who
48:17should go first.
48:18The strange
48:19and unpredictable
48:20Magi-Cube instrument
48:21looked quite dangerous,
48:22and not a single being
48:24was willing to be
48:24the first to enter.
48:26Duandong River
48:26pointed directly
48:27at Deer Bug Master,
48:29making the choice
48:29for them,
48:30the other universe masters.
48:31From the first reincarnation,
48:34Era relaxed instantly
48:35and even started jesting,
48:37claiming this was
48:38merely the start
48:38and that Deer Bug Master
48:40would succeed for sure,
48:42questioning how it
48:43could be difficult for him.
48:44Deer Bug Master
48:45merely smiled
48:45without a word,
48:47walked toward the instrument
48:48and stepped inside.
48:49Soon a cracking sound
48:51was heard
48:51as the doors shut.
48:52The secret engravings
48:54on the surface
48:55lit up and bouts
48:56of strong energy.
48:57Waves churned inside,
48:59the entire instrument
49:00turning from dark red
49:01to a dazzling,
49:02incandescent white.
49:04Luo Feng grew tense,
49:05wondering what was
49:06being selected
49:07as everything was unknown.
49:08From inside,
49:09Deer Bug Master
49:10made no sound,
49:11or perhaps his shouting
49:12was blocked
49:13because nothing
49:14could enter the instrument,
49:16leaving those outside
49:17feeling anxious.
49:18A moment later,
49:19the door opened
49:19and Deer Bug Master
49:21walked out.
49:22Doubt was written
49:22all over his face,
49:24an expression
49:24the other eight universe masters
49:26did not understand,
49:28suggesting something unexpected
49:29had happened inside.
49:30Duandong River
49:31took one look
49:32and declared
49:33the first round qualified.
49:35Instantly,
49:35Deer Bug Master's face
49:37showed delight.
49:38The two females present,
49:40Liu Zhou Master
49:41and Sorcerer Sprite Master,
49:43asked what was inside
49:44the instrument
49:45and offered congratulations.
49:46Deer Bug.
49:47Master.
49:48Kirtley told them
49:49to go in
49:50and find out
49:50for themselves
49:51and stood by the side
49:52to relax.
49:53Having made it through,
49:55Duandong River's gaze
49:56swept through
49:57the remaining eight
49:58and called for the next.
49:59Jittery Sea Master
50:00volunteered,
50:01his eyes flashing
50:02a murderous glint
50:03as he took
50:04a big step forward.
50:05Seeing a volunteer,
50:07Duandong River
50:08simply watched
50:09in silence.
50:10Jittery Sea Master
50:11walked to the door,
50:12hesitated for a split moment,
50:14then stepped inside.
50:15The door shut
50:16and the secret engravings
50:17lit up again.
50:19Luo Feng and company
50:20waited in silence,
50:21questioning what was
50:21going on inside.
50:23After a short moment,
50:24the door opened
50:25and Jittery Sea Master
50:26walked out
50:27with an expression
50:28full of doubt.
50:29Duandong River
50:30looked toward him
50:31with a tinge
50:32of harshness
50:32and coldly,
50:33declared him disqualified.
50:36This caused
50:37the other great beings
50:38to feel a sudden
50:38tremble in their hearts.
50:40Jittery Sea Master
50:41grew anxious
50:42and blurted out
50:43his confusion,
50:44arguing that he had
50:45lived through
50:46almost three
50:46reincarnation eras
50:48and that
50:49Deer Bug Master
50:50had only lived longer
50:51and owned
50:52a supreme,
50:52true treasure,
50:53making him only
50:54a little stronger.
50:56Questioning why
50:56he was disqualified,
50:58this was the one chance
50:59for the skeleton clan
51:00and he was reluctant
51:01to give it up.
51:03Duandong River
51:04shouted for him
51:04to shut his mouth
51:05and called
51:06for the next participant.
51:07The failure
51:08of the only volunteer
51:09made the remaining
51:10seven so cautious
51:12that none dared
51:13volunteer themselves,
51:14so Duandong River
51:15pointed at
51:16Liu Zhou Master
51:17to decide the order
51:18himself.
51:19The results
51:20followed quickly.
51:21Liu Zhou Master
51:22qualified,
51:23Rock Giant Master
51:24was disqualified,
51:25Shadow Dust Master
51:26qualified,
51:27Sorcerer Sprite Master
51:28qualified,
51:29Golden Square Master
51:30qualified,
51:31Red Lark Master
51:32was disqualified.
51:33Finally,
51:33Duandong River
51:34pointed towards
51:35Luo Feng.
51:36Whether the order
51:37was intentional or not,
51:39no one knew,
51:40because after
51:41Jittery Sea Master's
51:42failed attempt,
51:43the rest of the turns
51:44were all decided
51:45by Duandong River's
51:46pointing.
51:47Luo Feng held his breath
51:48and walked toward
51:49the instrument,
51:50passing the doorway
51:51to enter.
51:52Inside the instrument
51:53was an individual,
51:55void space
51:56where Luo Feng
51:56was suspended.
51:57With no exit at all,
51:59streaks of distorted
52:00secret engravings
52:01started appearing,
52:02dazzling white
52:03engravings distributed.
52:05All over the void
52:06as bouts of strange
52:07and unpredictable
52:08energy appeared.
52:09Instantaneously,
52:10this energy
52:11tried to penetrate him,
52:12even though he had
52:13Star Tower
52:14to guard his soul
52:15and crazy demon
52:16extermination.
52:17Godly armor
52:18to protect his body
52:19they were not useful.
52:20This strange
52:21and unpredictable
52:22energy penetrated
52:23his godly body
52:24and at that moment
52:25Luo Feng felt
52:26as though all his
52:27secrets were revealed.
52:29The invisible
52:30strange power
52:31continued to penetrate
52:32within his body,
52:33penetrating every inch
52:34of godly power
52:35and eventually
52:36merging with him
52:37to become a complete whole.
52:39A short moment later,
52:40the distorted
52:41secret engraving
52:42started to dissipate
52:43and the strange energy
52:45completely disappeared.
52:46A door appeared
52:47before him
52:47in that void space.
52:49Luo Feng took a step
52:50and passed the doorway
52:51to enter the hall outside,
52:53still filled with doubts
52:54about what had happened inside.
52:56There were slight changes
52:57in the expressions
52:58of Dear Bug Master,
53:00Shadow Dust Master,
53:01Sorcerer Sprite Master,
53:03and a few others
53:04who had passed earlier.
53:05Because this was
53:06the first time
53:06Duandong River,
53:08Wu had smiled
53:09since the very beginning.
53:10The various great beings
53:11judge this change
53:12as not right.
53:13Because this Duandong River
53:15must be of a very cold character,
53:17and this shadow
53:18he left behind
53:19must have been compatible
53:20with his character.
53:21Dandong River
53:22pointed toward
53:23Jittery Sea Master,
53:25Red Lark Master,
53:26and Rock Giant Master,
53:28ordering the three of them
53:29to quickly take their leave,
53:31warning that if they
53:32did not leave now,
53:33they might be annihilated
53:34on their way.
53:36Jittery Sea Master
53:37and Red Lark Master
53:38looked at one another
53:39with great reluctance,
53:41realizing all of the skeleton clan
53:43had been eliminated.
53:44Rock Giant Master,
53:45a rock-type special life form,
53:47looked at Liu Jo Master
53:49and expressed that
53:50he would no longer
53:51be able to protect her
53:52and told her to
53:53take great care.
53:54Jittery Sea Master
53:55could not hold back
53:56and asked to be told
53:57why they did not pass.
53:59Duandong River
54:00answered with hostility,
54:01stating that they were not from
54:03his clan yet wished
54:04to inherit something,
54:05from a pulse
54:06on his Duandong River,
54:08telling them it was a dream
54:09and to get lost.
54:10This mention of clan
54:11greatly shocked
54:12Luo Feng,
54:13Deer Bug Master
54:14and the others.
54:15Strictly speaking,
54:16the six great beings
54:17who had passed
54:18were not from the same clan,
54:19or even fully beings
54:21of the flesh and blood type.
54:22For instance,
54:24Liu Jo Master
54:24was a plant life form,
54:26yet she had still passed.
54:27Jittery Sea Master
54:28and Red Lark Master
54:30trembled upon hearing this reason,
54:32realizing big trouble.
54:33If they failed
54:34for this reason,
54:35then even if other great beings
54:37from Skeleton Clan came,
54:39they would fail just the same.
54:41Duandong River's eyes
54:42brimmed with coldness
54:43and ordered them to leave.
54:45Jittery Sea Master
54:46and Red Lark Master
54:47gritted their teeth,
54:49transformed into light streams
54:50and dashed out.
54:52Giant Rock Master,
54:53after bidding farewell
54:54with a most unwilling heart,
54:56also dashed out
54:58and flew into
54:58the crimson-red streaks of light.
55:00Coursing along
55:01the crimson-red streaks
55:03with distorted time and space,
55:05the three quickly arrived
55:06at the control room hall
55:07they were at previously.
55:09Jittery Sea Master
55:10lowered his head to
55:11look at the deep crimson passageway
55:13and said through gritted teeth
55:15that if that was the reason,
55:17it meant no one
55:18from Skeleton Clan
55:19would be able to succeed.
55:20Red Lark Master said
55:22with a voice dripping with hatred
55:23that if that was the case,
55:25the Skeleton Clan
55:26would not be able
55:27to succeed at all,
55:28suggesting they spread the news
55:30to let various
55:31groups of powers
55:32know and let
55:33a large number
55:34of great beings
55:35make their way there.
55:36What the Skeleton Clan
55:37could not achieve,
55:39they would not let
55:40the Divine Eye Clan
55:41achieve easily.
55:42After all,
55:42out of the six who qualified,
55:44three were from
55:45the Divine Eye Clan
55:46and the Skeleton Clan
55:47could not look on
55:48while they succeeded.
55:50Within the Misty Hall,
55:51Duandong River
55:52looked at the remaining six
55:54and clarified
55:54his selection logic.
55:56If they were not
55:57from his clan,
55:58naturally,
55:58they did not qualify
55:59for the inheritance.
56:01However,
56:01he explained
56:02this was merely
56:03the simplest round
56:04of selection
56:05and also the only safe round.
56:07What came next
56:08would involve
56:09life and death dangers,
56:10and if they were afraid,
56:12they could still choose
56:13to retreat now.
