"Unable to refuse, is that how much you want me to become the Legacy Bearer of the Duan Dong River lineage?"
Others might not understand what Duan Dong River meant by "unable to refuse," but Ender understood perfectly.
Without a doubt, Duan Dong River intended to use this method to forcibly make him the Legacy Bearer of the Duan Dong River lineage.
Ender glanced at Duan Dong River's phantom, then closed his eyes and continued to solve the Rhino Emperor Game.
...
Peng Gong True God and Qing Dong True God saw that each clan's experts from the Universe Ocean's major forces had expressions that were either solemn or anxious, so they secretly communicated via voice transmission.
"He broke through the second Bottleneck so quickly. No wonder Void River is confident that he won't let experts from other races obtain the Legacy."
Qing Dong True God sighed, "This Rhino Emperor Game is quite difficult. If Void River can solve up to the 6000th Bureau, he will directly obtain the Duan Dong River Legacy."
Peng Gong True God replied, "Didn't Void River say before that he would be the Human Race's last line of defense in the third stage of the Legacy trial? Given his personality, even if he could solve the 6000th Bureau, he would stop at the 5999th."
Qing Dong True God sighed, "Alas, I always feel that Void River is being a bit overconfident. He could clearly obtain the Duan Dong River Legacy directly..."
"He doesn't have a great need for the Duan Dong River Legacy. If someone from the Human Race can obtain the Legacy, then they can inherit the core Legacy."
Peng Gong True God reminded him, "You also know that the most important part of a Legacy is its core. Only by obtaining the core Legacy can one, like Void River and Primal Chaos City Lord, embark on the Divine Power route of the True God Dao."
"I know, alas..." Qing Dong True God sighed, "Now we can only trust Void River. After all, he believes that Milky Way Ancestor can obtain the Legacy."
After their conversation ended, Peng Gong True God and Qing Dong True God continued to pay attention to the situation of the Human Race's Legacy candidates.
Among the nearly one thousand Legacy candidates of the Human Race, only Ender broke through the second Bottleneck, and Luo Feng broke through the first Bottleneck, yet they still led the major forces of the Universe Ocean.
It should be noted that there were only about a dozen Legacy Bearers who had broken through the first Bottleneck at that time.
The Human Race accounted for two of those mere dozen, and among them was the only one who broke through the second Bottleneck, which made the major forces of the Universe Ocean envious, jealous, and hateful. Therefore, the two of them were especially vigilant.
Several hundred years passed in Universe Ocean time.
"Ding! Dong!"
As the notification sound rang out, Duan Dong River's figure appeared again. Because a relatively large number of people had broken through the first Bottleneck, the experts merely intended to see who had reached the Bottleneck this time.
"Human Crimson Devil, broke through the first Bottleneck."
When they saw Bo Ya, shrouded in a golden, hazy light and sitting cross-legged on the crystal pillar, the experts of the Universe Ocean couldn't help but start discussing.
"It's another Original Universe Human. This is the third one."
"It took several hundred years to break through the first Bottleneck. With the Miniature Universe's ten thousand times acceleration, that's several million years, which is slower compared to Void River Master and Milky Way Ancestor."
"I heard that Crimson Devil Master and Milky Way Ancestor are both Void River Master's Disciples?"
"No way, can all three, master and Disciples, have such Heaven-Defying talent and Comprehension Ability?"
When the experts of the Universe Ocean discussed the relationship between Bo Ya, Luo Feng, and Ender, each of them felt shocked.
It's one thing for the master to have such Heaven-Defying talent and Comprehension Ability, but how can even the Disciples have such formidable talent and Comprehension Ability!
...
"Crimson Devil's talent and Comprehension Ability are indeed high. She is the third Legacy candidate of our Human Race to break through a Bottleneck." Peng Gong True God's chubby face carried a slight smile.
"With Crimson Devil's talent and Comprehension Ability, once the Human Race obtains the Duan Dong River Legacy, she has a very high chance of becoming a True God in the future."
Qingdong Master nodded in agreement, "It's just unknown whether she can, like Void River, embark on the Divine Power route of the True God Dao."
Because they had obtained Ancient Inheritance, the highest-level experts of the Human Race all knew that the Divine Power route True Gods had great potential, and correspondingly, this Dao was extremely difficult.
But the highest echelons of the Human Race hoped that more Universe Masters who followed the Divine Power route would be born among the Human Race. Even if their strength couldn't compare to Ender, as long as they could rival ordinary True Gods, it would significantly enhance the Human Race's strength.
Entering the first level of the Divine Power route and then becoming a True God means their strength would significantly surpass Law route True Gods. Just the size of their Divine Body would be a qualitative improvement!
Among the Human Race's Universe Masters, besides Ender and Primal Chaos City Lord, currently only Milky Way Ancestor Luo Feng and Crimson Devil Master Bo Ya had the hope of becoming Divine Power route True Gods.
As for whether they could succeed or reach what specific level, that remained unknown.
...
Time flowed, and two thousand years passed in a blink of an eye.
Inside the Boat of Mausoleum's Life-and-Death Corridor, tens of thousands of each clan's experts from the Universe Ocean gathered, a dense sight to behold.
Even with Huge Axe Creator blocking the entrance, the Duan Dong River Legacy was simply too tempting, and experts still rushed from all over the Universe Ocean, handing over their treasures and bringing their clansmen into the Boat of Mausoleum.
At this moment, these tens of thousands of experts were all discussing...
"Following Human Void River Master, Milky Way Ancestor, Crimson Devil and Venerable Blue Blood of the East Emperor Holy Land Universe, the one who broke through the second Bottleneck is actually Water Praise Lord."
"An inconspicuous Universe Master from the Second Reincarnation Era has actually surpassed others."
"Water Praise Master... his potential is extraordinary."
"The First Reincarnation Era is probably going crazy, after all, they had the most candidates who came to accept the Legacy, but two of the top three are from the Original Universe Human Race, and one is from the East Emperor Holy Land Universe..."
Each clan's experts all sighed.
"The third Bottleneck has been broken. This Rhino Emperor Game indeed gets harder the further you go."
Ender opened his eyes. He had just perfectly solved the 4500th Rhino Emperor Game.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Countless azure light points condensed out of thin air.
The surrounding temperature plummeted, and it even subtly gave their Souls a "freezing sensation," causing all the experts to shiver and involuntarily look up, only to see countless azure light points in mid-air...
It was as if snowflakes were drifting.
"What's going on?"
"This..."
"Something big is about to happen!"
These countless azure light points, like drifting snowflakes, suddenly surged frantically towards Ender.
Rumble!
Behind Ender, the ground suddenly cracked open, and a crystal pillar emerged.
At once, three great crystal pillars surrounded Ender, and countless azure light points rapidly condensed, transforming into a layer of palace that enveloped his head.
Gold, red, and azure, the three-colored palace shone dazzlingly.
At this moment, Ender was like an emperor among the tens of thousands of experts in the Universe Ocean!
"He broke through the third Bottleneck!!"
"How is this possible? The Rhino Emperor Game gets harder the further you go. How could Void River Master break through so quickly..."
"No! The opportunity to transcend Reincarnation belongs to our Human Race! Damn it! Damn it!!!"
Seeing this, the experts of the Universe Ocean were amazed, disbelieving, and some roared in anger.
Especially the experts of the First Reincarnation Era, they accounted for the vast majority of the Legacy candidates and were also the ones most eager to obtain the Legacy.
Because their lifespan limits were approaching. If they even lost the Legacy opportunity, they would probably only have the path of falling!
They were unwilling to fall, unwilling for their entire Human Race to disappear in Reincarnation...
They struggled!
They fought!
But the Human Void River Master was too Heaven-Defying. He comprehended the Legacy and broke through the third Bottleneck in just over two thousand years, becoming the only core candidate among tens of thousands of candidates.
It should be known that others, such as Milky Way Ancestor, Venerable Blue Blood, Water Praise Master, etc., had only just broken through the second Bottleneck not long ago.
They all knew that the Rhino Emperor Game got harder the further you went, and there was an incredibly huge gap between the second Bottleneck and the third Bottleneck!
A white light phantom condensed in mid-air, transforming into a dazzling Duan Dong River wearing magnificent white armor.
"Void River, you are indeed the most outstanding candidate."
At this moment, Duan Dong River no longer had that cold, lonely feeling; instead, he was very dazzling.
"I'll give you one more chance. Are you willing to become the Legacy Bearer of my Duan Dong River lineage?"
