Swallowed Star (All Chapters) Volume 7

Chapter 1233: The Second Bottleneck

The 64th one!

The 65th one!

The other candidates in the life and death corridor might have been slower in speed of comprehending the Rhinoceros Emperor Game, but with the passing of time, the number of great beings reaching Duan Dong River's expectation was increasing at an alarming rate. One by one, golden shadow palaces were appearing within the life and death corridor. There were already many of these scattered all over the place.

Candidates within the life and death corridor would occasionally carry out discussions secretly via voice transmissions.

"The time given to decoding the Rhinoceros Emperor Game is unexpectedly long. From the looks of it, Duan Dong River is intent on gathering more candidates for his heir. The number is now close to 70!"

"True. After all, an heir not only requires the ability to comprehend. There are other areas to consider; even if Luo Feng may be at a slight advantage now, it is no cause for worry. Our East Emperor Holy Land already has nine who have met the baseline requirement! Moving forward, we will gain an even greater advantage!"

After all, studying the Rhinoceros Emperor Game was an extremely tedious and difficult process. It was almost like a continuous soul attack, which was why, based on the difference in their willpower, most of these great beings would take a break from time to time, although the length of time taken for their breaks varied.

Within the virtual universe.

"There are 69 who have already met the expectation." Primal Chaos City Leader, who was seldom worried, started to show traces of anxiety. "And the more time that passes, I believe the number of candidates will also increase! Given this rate of development, Luo Feng's advantage will gradually shrink."

"What should we do?"

"We want to get hold of the inheritance, yet our chances are continuously lessening."

Eight universe masters and Huge Axe Creator had gathered. The eight universe masters were all high-level leading figures of the human race, like Darkness Master, Void Gold Master, Deserted Mirror Master, and Qing Dong Master. Although they were all at different places—be it Tilted Peak Sector or Universe Boat, and not at the Boat of Mausoleum—they were constantly concerned about everything happening at the Boat of Mausoleum.

Everyone knew that this round of inheritance was a silent battle! This battle would determine who could transcend the reincarnation era and determine the owner of the third holy land universe!

"Stop getting frustrated over this." Huge Axe Creator laughed heartily and added, "It is pointless for us to fret over this. Let Luo Feng comprehend at his leisure! As for us... let's take our minds off this by going on other adventures and roaming elsewhere. If we simply stare on aimlessly, what if this inheritance lasts for 10,000 years, or even longer?"

"True."

"But—"

"All right, all right, all of you should get back now," Huge Axe Creator said with a wave.

Among the individual planes, with fog winding around them, there were many stone pillars, and every one of them bore a three-dimensional virtual shadow.

Luo Feng and the man in the white robe, Teacher Origin, were in the same space, but of course, Luo Feng was not the least bit aware of Teacher Origin's presence.

"The first 2,000 stages are so tough." Luo Feng was standing before the three-dimensional virtual shadow of the 2,000th endgame.

It had been 3,000 years, and during this long period of time, there were other candidates who had subsequently managed to meet the baseline requirements. This had definitely dealt him a certain amount of pressure, and he also started to understand Duan Dong River's intentions. Apparently, Duan Dong River did not wish to place all his bets on Luo Feng for the time being.
