Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!.

Chapter 425 The King

The Heart of Lava transformed into a furnace, where the flawless crystal steel slowly melted and covered its entire body with molten steel.

After a long while, the light faded.

The round, soccer ball-shaped housekeeping robot disappeared, replaced by... a handsome humanoid robot, two meters tall, with a flawless, crystal-white steel body, a furnace in the middle of its chest releasing high-temperature heat, and eight freely retractable mechanical arms on its back.

"handsome!"

The new evolved form of the Mech-like beings is called: 'Eight-Armed Manufacturing Robot'.

Using the remaining power of evolution, the Mech Disciple also broke through to the Overlord level.

Li Cunxu asked, "Have you mastered the Overlord skill?"

The mechanic said, "I understand. My overlord skill is called Taunt Mechanical Shield. It can release mental electromagnetic waves, arouse the power of the mind, make the enemy angry, and redirect their attack target to only attack this shield."

"Give it a try."

Li Cunxu was very curious about how it had provoked other people's anger.

The eight robotic arms on its back disassembled into countless parts, then reassembled into a door-like mechanical shield. The shield featured a comical emoji, modeled after a soccer ball-shaped housekeeping robot. The emoji, with a cheeky expression, beckoned, accompanied by text formed from the mechanical parts: "Come and hit me! Come and hit me!"

A nameless rage rose within Li Cunxu, and he punched the mocking mechanical shield, but the force was absorbed by the mechanical Great Wall's defensive field.

The meme mocking the mechanical shield jumps and hops around in a cheeky manner, wiggling its butt in a mesmerizing dance, accompanied by text made of mechanical parts that reads, "Is that all the strength you have? Haven't you eaten enough?"

Li Cunxu became even more popular.

Actually, emojis can't really anger Li Cunxu. Having been a keyboard warrior in my past life, I don't have much skill to make Li Cunxu angry.

What truly angered Li Cunxu was the electromagnetic waves released by the mocking mechanical shield, which ignited his inner fury.

A minute later, Li Cunxu regained his composure amidst his anger.

"This skill, combined with the defensive force field, is a perfect match. The Mech Disciple's tank system is becoming more and more complete."

Li Cunxu reflected on himself: "However, my performance just now was really too poor. My realm is stronger than that of the mechanical disciple who has just entered the overlord level, yet I was controlled by it for a minute. I really shouldn't have done that."

"I advanced too quickly, lacked training, and my willpower couldn't keep up."

"We should start training our willpower."

Li Cunxu is too young, and no matter how much he trains his will, it will be difficult for him to surpass those older predecessors. Fortunately, Li Cunxu has a clever trick.

He chose to comprehend the spiritual law—willpower.

With the Law of Will within him, willpower will not become Li Cunxu's weakness.

However, one cannot rely solely on the law of will; one's own will must also be strengthened.

Li Cunxu's method of strengthening willpower: He spent a lot of money to buy seeds of the herb Tiyi grass, planted the herb, and consumed the herb.

The herb "Tiyi Cao" (提意草) cannot directly enhance willpower; it can only assist in enhancing willpower.

This herb has another name: "Three-Day Torture Herb." Eating this herb is like being tortured for three consecutive days. There is no remedy for this herb; once eaten, it cannot be reversed. Only after enduring three days will the herb's effects wear off.

Li Cunxu really went all out to strengthen his will.

There are seven days in a week. He suffers from the torment of this herb for six days and rests for one day. After all, people are not machines. Being tormented all the time will drive them crazy. On his day off, he also makes Blood Feast Holy Communion for the junior students of the Divine University to earn some credits.

In addition, while suffering, Li Cunxu used the Law of Will he had acquired at the auction to comprehend the Law of Will.

However, whenever he was in pain, he forgot about comprehending the laws of will.

Fortunately, Li Cunxu did not force himself to comprehend the Law of Will. He only needed to grasp a little bit of it, and when the time came, the hegemonic fortune would naturally bring him good fortune so that he could comprehend the Law of Will.

While training his willpower, Li Cunxu did not forget about raising giant clams.

Every day, Xiao Ruan blows the Noise Space Whistle to summon Noise Eels. As before, Xiao Ruan deals with Noise Eels below the King rank, while Li Shiji deals with Noise Eels above the King rank. With the Noise Eels selflessly serving as fertilizer, Wan Zhen Mi grows fiercely.

The expansion of the fertile lands was also very fierce.

The speed of expansion caught up with the speed at which the mud loach dug sand to expand the island.

Li Shiji, the Immortal Dragon of the Demon Lotus, the Sandman Pharaoh, and the Golden Dragon—the Three Kings—have all joined the digging project.

But Li Shiji can't dig in the dirt every day.

Li Shiji came up with a solution.

He moved a portal to a secret realm to the Isle of Abundance, then sent earth slimes and miner slimes into the realm to dig earth, which was then moved by other slimes to the shore of the Isle of Abundance to expand the island.

After trying this method, it seemed to work well. Li Shiji borrowed several more portals to secret realms from his enemies and had the slimes dig and move stones to expand the island.

Wanzhenmi, Li Cunxu used most of it to feed the spirit clam.

Li Cunxu also focuses on breeding the spirit shell.

With the increase in the number of spirit oysters, the production of spirit pearls is also increasing.

By consuming a massive amount of spiritual pearls, Li Cunxu's spiritual body reached perfection.

That year, Li Cunxu was twenty-eight years old, but actually thirty-eight.

Li Cunxu swallowed three streams of overlord's fortune and one golden fortune in one go.

Under the influence of Qi, Li Cunxu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if divinely aided, and comprehended the Law of Will.

The invisible barriers of hierarchy crumbled before him.

King of Kings Breakthrough.

Under the influence of the Law of Will and a wisp of World-Destroying Calamity Qi, the Overlord skill 'Mental Black Lightning' transformed into the Law skill 'World-Destroying Black Lightning'.

After comprehending the laws and skills, Li Cunxu discovered that the World-Destroying Black Lightning was just a name that sounded impressive, but in reality, it had absolutely nothing to do with destroying the world.

However, this law skill is indeed very powerful.

When the attack hits an enemy, the enemy will see a ten-second illusory future of destruction. Those with weak wills will mistake it for reality and believe that the world will truly be destroyed in the future, thus giving up on themselves and ceasing to resist.

Since the world is destined to be destroyed, what's the point of my resistance now? I'll die sooner or later anyway, so I might as well die sooner and avoid facing that cruel, world-ending future.

As the King of Madness said, those who practice the Vast Ocean Meditation Method will awaken their spiritual talent of "embracing all rivers".

Li Cunxu was not in a hurry to test his newly acquired legendary talent, Ocean of Knowledge, as he had not yet formed a contract with the Devouring God Dream Butterfly.

After breaking through to the King rank, Li Cunxu's two and a half awakened contract slots will double, while contract slots added through expansion items will not double.

Therefore, Li Cunxu added two new contract positions, as well as one incomplete contract position.

In fact, if Li Cunxu hadn't used up the incomplete contract slots before, the two incomplete contract slots would have merged into a complete contract slot.

However, if given another chance, Li Cunxu would still prefer to use the two incomplete contract slots separately rather than combine them into one.

Even the weakest pet has its infinite possibilities and its own miracles.

Moreover, Li Cunxu also possesses a divine gift, a beast tamer talent that allows even weak pets to defy fate.

Whether he was weak or not was actually not important to Li Cunxu.

Xiao Ruan was initially weak, a slime known as 'trash'. Now, it has become Li Cunxu's number one general and ace pet.
