Boat of Mausoleum, Legacy Space.
The calls of flying birds and the roars of exotic beasts filled the air, creating a world like a paradise of birdsong and fragrant flowers.
Looking into the distance, one could see some flying birds displaying their feathers, fully spreading their wings and flying, leaving trails of fiery rainbow light or dazzling colorful light in their wake…
And in the distance, the figures of exotic beasts were faintly visible among the weeds, or occasionally, the tip of an iceberg of an exotic beast would emerge from a distant lake.
"This is the Legacy Space," Duan Dong River stood in mid-air, his gaze ethereal. "It is where successive Duan Dong River have received their Legacy."
Each clan's experts also hovered behind him, their hearts filled with anticipation for the Legacy they were about to receive, while also secretly astonished…
If this Legacy Space truly was where successive Duan Dong River received their Legacy, then its existence must span an incredibly long time.
"It's called the Legacy Space," Duan Dong River sighed with emotion. "But it can absorb energy, all energy, including the chaotic airflow in the Universe Ocean. It maintains the stability of the space and the proliferation of life within it."
Though each clan's experts were surprised, they quickly calmed down.
Because… they were used to it.
Although ordinary experts, including the True God, could not directly absorb the Universe's chaotic airflow, only "Miniature Universe and Original Universe" could absorb this chaotic airflow and convert it into their own energy.
However, this Law was completely inapplicable in Ancient Civilization, like the Universe Boat, like this Legacy Space…
All could exist for an incredibly long time; even the Miniature Universe generally existed for three Reincarnation Eras, yet this Legacy Space existed for endless Reincarnation Eras.
"Now… you are about to come into contact with the Legacy," Duan Dong River pointed into the distance. "Look!"
In the vast wilderness in the distance, a door of light suddenly rose, and each Light Gate had some images on it.
If one looked closely at that image, one could vaguely see an expert manipulating thousands of golden lights, attacking a distant scene.
Watching other images, one could see other scenes.
"My Duan Dong River lineage's successive Legacy holders include close combat, long-range attacks, weapon refining, Mechanical manipulation… almost encompassing all categories from my homeland."
Duan Dong River pointed into the distance and said, "There are a total of 820 entrances in the distance. Entering them will grant different basic Legacies."
"Only one person can enter each entrance to receive the Legacy."
"Void River chooses first, Milky Way chooses second… and so on."
Duan Dong River said directly, "This is merely a basic Legacy, to verify whether you are suitable for my Duan Dong River lineage."
"When the final Legacy holder is decided, only that final Legacy holder will be qualified to receive the true core Legacy, which only each generation of Duan Dong River is qualified to know."
At this point, Duan Dong River glanced at Ender, "It is precisely because it is a basic Legacy that I promised humanity would not perish in the Legacy trial."
Each clan's experts nodded in understanding.
"Void River, you may choose now," Duan Dong River looked at Ender.
"Hmm."
Ender nodded slightly, then transformed into a silver stream of light and flew towards the 820 spatial entrances in the distance.
…
The glowing spatial entrances, one by one, floated and were arranged in parallel, a total of 820 of them.
Ender hovered in mid-air, his gaze sweeping over each light gate, carefully observing and understanding the Legacy represented by each entrance.
This was only a basic legacy, not very important to the Duan Dong River lineage, and it wouldn't matter even if it were spread outside. That's why it was used for the final screening!
However, even a "basic Legacy" that could be spread outside in "Ancient Civilization" was extraordinary for the various forces in their current Universe Ocean.
Even if the Legacy information only contained up to the True God Rank!
The 820 light gates were mainly divided into close combat, long-range attack, treasure refining, Mechanical, and miscellaneous categories, with strange combat styles such as manipulating creatures all categorized as miscellaneous.
Ender's gaze swept over each light gate, finally settling on the one where a blurred figure could vaguely be seen holding a long spear, fighting and killing freely.
Clearly, this was a Legacy of using a 'spear' within the close combat category.
Ender turned to look into the distance, "Your Excellency Duan Dong River, I have made my choice."
"Good, Milky Way, it's your turn," Duan Dong River nodded.
"Yes, Lord Duan Dong River."
Luo Feng bowed slightly, then transformed into a stream of light and quickly chose the light gate representing the 'Dao of Blade Legacy'.
This scene caused many of each clan's experts behind Duan Dong River to show a hint of unwillingness.
Because… They also wanted to choose the Dao of Blade Legacy!
Among Universe experts, close combatants accounted for the vast majority, and the blade was definitely one of the major categories. Many of these experts were skilled in using blades and all wanted to choose the Dao of Blade Legacy.
Unfortunately, each basic Legacy could only be accepted by one person, so they had to choose others.
"Good, Blue Blood, you choose," Duan Dong River said.
"Yes." Venerable Blue Blood bowed slightly, then transformed into a stream of light and went to choose.
…
Because the selection was based on their performance in the Rhino Emperor Game, especially in the Late Stage, those candidates could only grit their teeth and reluctantly choose some basic Legacies they were not skilled in, such as refining treasures…
They would probably just be getting a handle on it when the final Legacy holder was already decided.
In just a moment.
All the candidates had made their selections, each hovering in front of their chosen spatial gate.
"All of you, enter and begin to receive the basic Legacy," Duan Dong River commanded indifferently, "until the Legacy holder is determined, and all candidates except for humanity perish."
Whoosh…
All the experts flew into the spatial gates, and immediately, space and time shifted.
…
This was a Chaos world, with chaotic airflow permeating below and darkness above. Only one star hung, emitting light to illuminate the area below.
Ender stood quietly above the chaotic airflow.
Whoosh!
The dazzling star in the center of the endless darkness in the sky suddenly shot down a visible beam of light, directly enveloping him.
Ender did not dodge, allowing the light beam to envelop him. Immediately after, he heard a cold, Mechanical voice, "Core Authority — activating core authority basic Legacy."
Boom…
Immediately, a massive amount of information surged frantically into Ender's mind.
Detailed spear secret manuals poured in, starting from roughly the Universe Venerable level Realm and gradually delving deeper into the profound mysteries of the spear, all the way up to the True God level!
Each spear secret manual… was from a different perspective. Some spear secret manuals were based on Wood-Space Law, some on Water Space Law, some on Earth Space Law…
There were also spear techniques that utilized the Fusion of the three most basic Laws: Metal, Water, and Earth.
There were even some spear techniques that combined Metal and Time…
All kinds of spears, no Law could not be fused.
A total of 360 kinds of spear secret manuals were transmitted into Ender's mind in one go.
Even with Ender's consciousness, his mind seemed to have slowed down. It should be known that the information volume of each secret manual was enormous, and it took more than two days to complete the transmission.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly—
The brilliant star in the dark sky suddenly shot out three rays of light, and within each of those three rays of light was a giant iceberg.
Three majestic icebergs fell from the star, then landed in the chaotic airflow. Each iceberg was over a hundred million kilometers tall, and crystal clear like transparent crystal. Furthermore, within each iceberg, there were faint lines of light, like meteors, flying through repeatedly.
Within the three icebergs, countless meteor-like light lines intertwined, naturally forming a beautiful and magnificent picture.
This was a naturally conceived treasure!
"You possess core authority, so you have received 360 secret manuals left by past experts for reference…"
"You are the first candidate for this Legacy selection, so you can observe three spear mountains. Each spear mountain contains 'Law of Spear patterns'."
"Law patterns contain the ultimate power and reveal all ultimate mysteries. You are to observe the three spear mountains and, using the 360 spear secret manuals as reference, create a new set of spear techniques…"
"When your spear technique meets the requirements, you will become the new Legacy holder of the Duan Dong River lineage." After the cold, Mechanical voice finished speaking, it fell silent.
"Spear Mountain."
Ender looked at the three majestic, crystal-clear, transparent ice mountains, where countless dazzling and mesmerizing light lines, like meteors, shone. The basic Laws and Fusion Laws he had comprehended before paled in comparison to them.
It seemed that every single one of those meteor-like, breathtakingly beautiful Law patterns… contained endless profound mysteries.
Ender looked at the three spear mountains, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes. "Basic Legacy, this is what I was missing. The Duan Dong River Legacy trial… I was right to come."
Although he had obtained a Legacy in the core area of Flowing Overlapping Mountains, those Legacies, apart from knowledge like treasure refining and gene maps, were too high-end and profound.
As for amplitude secret techniques, Divine Power burning secret techniques, and will secret arts, they were fine, as Universe Master could Cultivate the first one or two layers.
Other more profound secret techniques, such as the Tempering of the "Nine Revolutions Yuan Heavy Body Refining Method," required at least a True God Rank to Cultivate the first revolution, and this was already the lowest requirement.
The even more profound ones were a chaotic blur, with even their names unreadable.
Ender came to participate in the Duan Dong River Legacy trial, not only to provide a safety net for his clan but also to make up for his own lack of basic Legacy.
…
On the other side.
Luo Feng was completely engrossed, gazing at the two ice mountains amidst a chaotic airflow…
