Splash...

The starry river flowed through and enveloped Lu Yan'an within a radius of one light-year. After a moment, the color of this starry river changed to Chaos color, and even in the vast void, there were faint Chaos currents pulsating.

As time passed, the entire world suddenly turned completely dark. Countless dark currents of energy surged wildly, and in an instant... the whole world seemed to have entered another world, a Chaos world filled with endless Chaos energy!

Countless energies, intertwined by Law Secret Pattern Diagram, transforming into Chaos energy. This Chaos energy then condensed into a thin film around the massive Secret Pattern Diagram. In the next moment, all the Chaos energy coiled around the Supreme Treasure "Morning Glow" in Lu Yan'an's hand!

Lu Yan'an stood in mid-air, his expression burning with fervor as he looked at the Chaos energy swirling around the Supreme Treasure in his hand, a strange sense of satisfaction filling his heart!

"This is terrifyingly powerful!" Lu Yan'an closed his eyes and enjoyed it immensely. He had been stuck at the threshold of the Strongest Secret Technique of the Universe Master, but now that he had broken through that barrier, the profound benefits he had accumulated were instantly revealed! The attack-type secret technique he created had instantly surpassed the level of the sixth-order Strongest Secret Technique of the Universe Master and reached the level of the seventh-order fusion Strongest Secret Technique.

Compared to a single, Strongest Secret Technique of Universe Master, the power of merging the Strongest Secret Technique is more than a hundred times stronger! Especially the Chaos energy that has evolved from it, which has brought about a qualitative change in this move. Generally speaking, a small amount of Chaos energy can easily crush a High Universe Venerable. Now, all the Chaos energy within a light-year range has gathered on "Morning Glow," which shows how terrifying the power of this move is.

"Now, let me see the power of this move!" Hovering in mid-air, Lu Yan'an's eyes flashed with anticipation. At the same time, he slashed forward with the Peak True Treasure, Morning Glow's Glow, and a Chaos energy blade carrying the color of destruction was instantly activated!

Rumble... The endless Chaos energy flow spread towards a neutron star not far away with an overwhelming force, just like an endless, huge steel plate pressing down directly!

Those countless emerald green light spots were simply impossible to withstand, coupled with the sharpness and destructive power of the blade energy! With a deafening roar, it seemed as if the entire neutron star was shaking, just as a giant steel plate crushed a piece of raw meat into mincemeat. The neutron star didn't even last a moment before it was completely shattered... and the attack continued its relentless advance into the depths of the cosmic void.

"This, this..." Lu Yan'an was completely shocked by this move. He couldn't even believe that a Universe Venerable like himself could use such a move!

Inside the Nyarlathotep Wormhole.

The Demon Beast Clone that were comprehending the Rhino Emperor Game were all shocked by the power of this newly comprehended fusion of the Strongest Secret Technique!

"The essence of 'Lingxi' has definitely reached the seventh rank, but my foundation is holding me back, so it only seems to have the power of the peak of the fifth rank right now!" After letting out a long breath, Lu Yan'an finally calmed down. "Now, whether in terms of matter or soul, my methods have entered the fifth rank level!"

"That's great! Keep going!" His eyes burned as he looked at the Rhino Emperor Game before him, as if it contained an endless treasure!

When studying the Rhino Emperor Game's Formation using this method, he could instantly analyze and comprehend it from multiple perspectives, and numerous inspirations flooded his mind! His efficiency was significantly improved... Moreover, the further he went, the more he felt the connections between the secret techniques engraved on the Black-Veined Stone Pillar and the Rhino Emperor Game.

The two studies show that the research speed is constantly increasing.

Outside the corridor.

"Um?"

The Xin Dao Ren looked at Lu Yan'an, who was in a deep state of enlightenment in the corridor, with surprise. "How long has he been studying the Rhino Emperor Game? He spent 2,000 years solving the 2,000th Formation, and now, less than 10,000 years later, he's already starting to solve the 3,000th Formation."

Xin Dao Ren was very surprised, because every thousand rounds of the Rhino Emperor Game was a new threshold, with the difficulty increasing dramatically.

Generally speaking, it takes 2000 years to complete the first 2000 games. Xin Dao Ren estimated that Lu Yan'an would be doing well if he could complete the 3000th game within 20,000 years, which would be considered as having unlimited potential. But unexpectedly, reality really slapped him in the face.

"The 3000th inning."

Lu Yan'an stood silently before the three-dimensional phantom of the unfinished puzzle. Meanwhile, his Nether Sea Clone within the Giant Axe Miniature Universe axe was fully focused on researching and solving the puzzle. In an instant, he entered a state of absolute peak enlightenment, with countless thoughts surfacing, numerous inspirations colliding, and numerous problems being solved one by one.

Even some insights gained from studying the secret methods of the Black-Veined Stone Pillar can be used for reference and imitation...

In fact, Lu Yan'an himself believed that if he were to Creation Secret Technique, with his current accumulation in the field of Fusion Laws, coupled with his mastery of the Secret Pattern Flow, it would not be difficult for him to create the Strongest Secret Technique, and even a near-eighth-order secret technique was possible. It's just that he doesn't have time to spend Creation Secret Technique right now.

"Um?"

Lu Yan'an's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on his face.

"It's done!"

He stood smiling in front of the crystal pillar, having just perfectly solved the 3000th endgame puzzle within it.

"From this perspective, surpassing City Lord City Lord Luo in comprehending the Rhino Emperor Game's Formation is a certainty! I just wonder if it's possible to catch up with the Yuan Zu?" Lu Yan'an began to speculate. Currently, solving 3000 incomplete Rhino Emperor Game's Formation puzzles has taken over 9800 years, with over 200 million Years remaining until the deadline! Adding the ten-thousand-fold increase in time flow, that means another 200 million years! If he can maintain this rate of progress, solving the 4000th Years in 200 million years is a piece of cake, and 5000 puzzles is not even a dream!

But thinking about it is one thing, but it's another! It's impossible to actually catch up with the Yuan Zu's achievements! After all, it's the achievement of solving 6000 Game within three eras, which is something that even a Universe Venerable can only dream of!

"Keep improving! Even if it's impossible, I still want to see the difference between myself and a True God Level Yuan Zu!" Lu Yan'an then closed his eyes and continued to focus all his efforts on comprehending the Rhino Emperor Game.

Year after year has passed.

Time passed gradually under the increasingly shocked gaze of the Xin Dao Ren.

Year, year, year...

As the final boundary of three eras approached, Xin Dao Ren became completely numb! The reason was simple: Lu Yan'an's rate of progress was truly terrifying.

During this Rhino Emperor Game's breakthrough, he watched Lu Yan'an's speed increased rapidly, his comprehension improved continuously, and his aptitude progressed at an astonishing rate! It was as if a piece of scrap iron was rapidly transforming into tempered steel. He couldn't believe... that a strong person's transformation could be so fast. Especially in the final stage, Lu Yan'an was breaking through the challenges one after another like a phoenix rising from the ashes. His comprehension left even the Xin Dao Ren speechless with astonishment.

"His previous cultivation time was short, but this time his research spanned 30,000 years. With Ten Thousand Times Time Acceleration, that's nearly 30,000 epochs. Is it because the time is long enough?" the Xin Dao Ren thought to himself. "No, even the Origin Continent has never seen such a guy, and even those geniuses who have cultivated for longer than him haven't been this outrageous."

"Could it really be a reincarnation of Universe God who has lost his past memories?" The Xin Dao Ren stared intently at Lu Yan'an, as if trying to glean some information from him.

As a second-level Universe God, the Xin Dao Ren knew many mysteries, yet there were still many things he didn't understand. But this certainly didn't include a native from Three Thousand Dimension Worlds. However, Lu Yan'an's existence completely shattered this understanding!

Lu Yan'an was completely unaware of the shock that Xin Dao Ren was experiencing.

At this moment, it was completely immersed in the world of the Rhino Emperor Game and secret techniques. If it was said that it was just a novice when it first started studying the Rhino Emperor Game, as time passed, its will was tempered, and its comprehension improved through research... for many reasons, Lu Yan'an became very obsessed with studying the Rhino Emperor Game.

That kind of instantaneous analysis, perception, and deciphering from billions of perspectives...

The exhilarating feeling of having the mysteries of the universe unraveled one by one.

Moreover, under such tempering... one's potential, like a rough gem, gradually begins to shine.

"5102 Game!" Lu Yan'an paused briefly, sensed the time, and frowned slightly. "Three eras are almost up. We're still far from the Yuan Zu's record of 6000 Game!"

"But it doesn't matter."

"The Rhino Emperor Game has been extremely beneficial to me; as long as I've received tangible benefits, that's enough!" Lu Yan'an had genuine confidence in this. Nearly three eras of tempering had honed his willpower and his unfathomable "comprehension" to an incredibly formidable level! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he had undergone a phoenix-like rebirth!
