Ch. 501Waiting

As powerful forces gathered outside the Tomb Ship, Luo Feng and Dongguan continued studying the Rhino Emperor Game, while Duan Donghe revealed that two Universe Venerables were progressing faster than the Universe Masters and Universe Strongest Ones. Lord Huang Ke and Venerable Bi Xue suspected that one of them was Luo Feng, whose rapid progress and short cultivation history unsettled them.

  • The Divine Eye Clan, led by the Second True Lord and the Seventh True Lord, and the Purple Moon Holy Land arrived at the Tomb Ship as its gatekeepers entered their fourth generation.

  • Duan Donghe announced that two Universe Venerables had surpassed the progress of the gathered Universe Masters and Universe Strongest Ones, prompting the powerful beings to wonder who they were.
  • Venerable Bi Xue and Lord Huang Ke considered whether one of the two might be Luo Feng, after realizing that the Galaxy Lord was a Universe Venerable who had cultivated for very little time.

Ch. 502Stalemate

Lord Huang Ke attacked Luo Feng and Dongguan, then exposed suspicions that Luo Feng was a Universe Venerable and urged the other factions to drive them out.

Ch. 503Transformation

Giant Axe Founder helped break the blockade around the Tomb Ship, allowing Can Bu Demon Master and Lord Peng Gong to bring more members of the Human Race inside. Dongguan recovered his Divine Body in the Energy Ocean and underwent a transformation that left both his Human Main Body and Light Lord Clone at 10,081-fold Divine Bodies.

  • Giant Axe Founder agreed to lead the charge against the blockade in exchange for Can Bu Demon Master bringing every member of the Human Race to the Tomb Ship's Central Control Room.

Ch. 504A disturbance

After completing a hundred-year transformation, Dongguan returned to the Star Tower and learned that Luo Feng had made progress studying the Rhino Emperor Game. With enemies attacking the tower, Dongguan decided to leave and strike back at them.

  • Dongguan emerged from the sea with a transformed Divine Body, discovered that his abilities had been integrated into his Spirit Eye, and chose to finish absorbing the Simulated Divine Power.
  • In Liuzhong Mountain, the Beast Ancestor noticed that a coiled-snake vortex had disappeared and suspected he had seen a mirror image.

  • The Two Great Holy Lands and the Divine Eye Clan sent seven Universe Masters to bombard the Star Tower, and one was struck by a blade of light from within it.
  • Dongguan asked Duan Donghe whether participants could interfere with one another as long as nobody died, then spread his control across the Life-and-Death Corridor.
  • Dongguan disrupted Venerable Bi Xue’s study and stopped Lord Lu Chong by freezing space-time and hurling him into a wall.
  • Dongguan declared that he was willing to sacrifice his avatar to prevent the others from studying, while the Universe Strongest Ones worried they might fail without avatars.
  • The Second True Lord asked Duan Donghe to stop Dongguan, but Duan Donghe said the participants had to meet his minimum requirement to advance and avoid further interference.

Ch. 506Agreement

Dongguan continued studying the Rhino Emperor Game while disrupting the other inheritance candidates, prompting the Universe Ocean factions to seek ways to resist him and negotiate an agreement. The factions secured mutual noninterference terms before informing the Two Great Holy Lands, leaving the Holy Lands angered at being outmaneuvered.

  • Tao Bu Demon Master asked Dongguan to spare him from interference in exchange for terms offered by the East Emperor Holy Land, and Dongguan consulted the Chaos City Lord, Giant Axe Founder, and others before agreeing to negotiate.
  • Two hundred years after the Tomb Ship emerged, the Universe Ocean factions signed an Agreement on Mutual Noninterference During the Duan Donghe Inheritance, then informed the Two Great Holy Lands after securing their benefits.

Ch. 507The first bottleneck

  • Duan Donghe protected Luo Feng's study pillar with a hemispherical projection and urged him to keep solving games for greater benefits.

Ch. 508Snake Coil

Dongguan continued studying the Rhino Emperor Game, completing Game 1500 and becoming the first Universe Master to meet the requirement. Meanwhile, Lord Yueshi discovered a strange Coiled Snake Vortex in the Universe Ocean, which Demon Ancestor showed to the gathered Universe Strongest Ones before it disappeared.

  • Demon Ancestor reported that the vortex had disappeared, while Star Master Bei Zhen noted that it seemed to be moving.

Ch. 509The arrival

Dongguan reflected on his progress in the Rhino Emperor Game and the paths ahead to becoming a Universe Strongest One. A Coiled Snake Vortex suddenly appeared and began pulling the Tomb Ship toward it, leaving Luo Feng and Dongguan with an ominous sense that the danger might be aimed at them.

  • Dongguan concluded that he needed to distill his comprehension techniques into his own Dao and considered how his divine bodies might lead him onto the divine power path.

  • Luo Feng worried about losing the Star Tower, while Dongguan sensed that the Coiled Snake Vortex had come for him.

Ch. 510Teleportation

Dongguan entered the coiled-snake vortex after it pursued him from Liuzhong Mountain, leaving his original body trapped and cut off from contact. With Dongguan missing, Luo Feng continued studying the Duan Donghe inheritance, hoping to carry it forward.

  • Duan Donghe contained the coiled-snake vortex long enough for the Tomb Ship to escape, but new vortices appeared around it and then vanished.
  • Dongguan told Duan Donghe he wanted to confront the vortex, and Duan Donghe let him go while preserving his eligibility for the inheritance if he returned within three epochs.
  • Dongguan entered the vortex and experienced a strange, patterned passage that felt like teleportation before contact with his original body was cut off.
  • Dongguan explained the events to Giant Axe Founder, Chaos City Lord, Lord Peng Gong, Luo Feng, and the others, saying he might have to face the vortex again after returning to the Universe Ocean.
  • Luo Feng continued studying the Rhino Emperor Game and thought his Demon Killer Clan body’s approaching willpower breakthrough might improve his comprehension speed.

Ch. 511Far away

After the Coiled Snake Vortex vanished, Dongguan emerged alone in a dangerous region of the Lost Sea, far from his clones and unable to communicate normally. He began exploring while keeping a limited written link with his other body through the True Explanation of Comprehension.

  • Outside the Tomb Ship, Giant Axe Founder explained the Coiled Snake Vortex's disappearance while the other Universe Strongest Ones considered searching Liuzhong Mountain.
  • Dongguan emerged into turbulent space-time deep in the Lost Sea, where his connections were severed and his senses and teleportation were severely limited.
  • Dongguan controlled the void around himself and discovered that he could exchange messages with his other body by writing in the True Explanation of Comprehension.
  • Dongguan reflected that separation had given him a stronger sense of belonging to his own other body, despite the risk that they could become distinct individuals.

Ch. 512Fate

  • Dongguan’s miniature Virtual Universe formed, and the Original Ancestor sensed that it could block the larger Virtual Universe’s perception.

Ch. 514Reincarnation

Dongguan became trapped in a series of increasingly dangerous worlds after entering the Coiled Snake Vortex, repeatedly dying and returning while his body grew stronger. His avatar in the Primal Universe realized that the repeated reincarnations might be part of a scheme, and his original body remained missing as the Duan Donghe Inheritance neared its end.

  • Dongguan explored a vast tree-shaped world, killed an Insect Beast, and took its sharp forelimbs as weapons.
  • Dongguan killed a butterfly-winged beast and was dissolved by a sinister snake eye after reaching for a red fruit, then awoke back at the leaf’s starting point with a stronger body.
  • Dongguan fought the beasts again, ate the red fruit, and entered an exit that led to a desert world with nine suns orbiting a dark vortex.
  • Dongguan’s avatar in the Primal Universe found that the original body’s records were overlapping and received no reply, raising concern that the reincarnations were part of a scheme.

Ch. 515Choice

Three epochs later, Duan Donghe began the final inheritance trial as most candidates withdrew and the rest faced a deadly contest. Trapped in an unknown trial, Dongguan overcame an apparently flawless attack with a forbidden imitation of his Fourth Layer Observation, then chose one of three mysterious roads.

  • Duan Donghe announced that only 291 candidates had passed the first bottleneck, five the second, and two the third, and the remaining experts turned to ash.
  • Giant Axe Founder advised Lord Peng Gong to withdraw if his chances were poor, while the Human Race mistook Dongguan's silence for grief over his lost opportunity.
  • Duan Donghe returned the Divine Eye Clan experts' Supreme Treasures through Thunder Robe Demon God and warned the remaining candidates that failure in the true inheritance trial meant Soul Annihilation.
  • Dongguan faced a phantom creature whose palm strike countered every ability he had shown, so he used Threefold Observation and then a pseudo-Fourth Layer Observation to break through the trial.
  • Dongguan saw a divine palace and two roads leading to ancient temples, then chose one of the three paths rather than be swallowed by the palace.

Ch. 516Wuyin and Tamos

Dongguan reached Wuyin, a departed soul who explained that Tamos, an innate primal chaos lifeform, had manipulated the trials to use Dongguan in an attempt at resurrection.

  • Wuyin introduced himself as the departed soul of the former Buddha-Demon Lord and said he had intervened to pull Dongguan away from danger.
  • Wuyin explained that Tamos had summoned Dongguan and intended to use him in a resurrection attempt, though possession would not succeed while Wuyin was present.

  • Wuyin revealed that the Divine Palace was a breach that could trigger Dongguan’s tampered Hunyuan bloodline awakening and leave him unconscious as a low-level Hunyuan messenger.
  • Wuyin identified the enemy as Tamos, an innate primal chaos lifeform called Eternity.

Ch. 517Hunyuan

Dongguan learned how Tamos’s Hunyuan bloodline could lead to ultimate awakening, though success required immense cultivation and carried serious risks. As Wuyin and Tamos’s remnant souls reenacted their battle outside the temple, Wuyin offered Dongguan three books, and Dongguan chose one.

  • Wuyin explained how Tamos’s influence reached Dongguan and how the bloodline could eventually trigger ultimate awakening.
  • Wuyin warned Dongguan that awakening before reaching the Universe God level would leave him a muddleheaded Hunyuan life-form, while advancing to the Ultimate Realm could raise his chances.
