High-level martial arts: Contract cashback, invincible starting from the Zerg.

After the core of the Tier 3 warship was dealt with, the star map floating in the center of the bridge slowly dispersed into points of light and disappeared.

Bai Fei withdrew the spiritual power from her fingertips, turned her head to look at Chen Feng beside her, her blue-green heterochromatic pupils still carrying the cold glint of the tactics she had just deduced.

Chen Feng's tone softened slightly: "Now that we've finished business, how about we take a walk together?"

......

The two walked side by side through the layers of biological chambers on the Zerg warship, and then through a bacterial membrane barrier that glowed with a ghostly blue light. A completely different world unfolded before them.

This is Bai Fei's private botanical garden.

It is also the place in the entire insect hive that least resembles an "insect hive".

Underfoot was a milky white, velvety fungal carpet; stepping on it felt like sinking into clouds, without making a sound.

The rock walls on both sides are covered with golden-orange spike-like flowers, each with a tiny glimmer of light at the top, hanging down along the vines like a flowing curtain of light.

Even the air here is filled with extremely fine, pale golden spores, and every breath is filled with a refreshing, sweet fragrance.

This is actually a garden that Bai Fei cultivated according to her own preferences.

"Bai Fei..." Chen Feng spoke first, but with a hint of hesitation, "Actually, there's something else I'd like to ask you this time."

Afterwards, Chen Feng told Bai Fei about the process of his Devouring Crystal Beast transforming into Xiao Ning, and detailed how it chose Bai Fei's bloodline talent when it entered the Heavenly Realm.

Bai Fei paused slightly, turned her head to look at Chen Feng, a hint of understanding flashing in her eyes: "So Xiao Ning has been sleeping a lot lately, right?"

Chen Feng nodded.

A lingering worry remained between his brows.

"She spends most of the day sleeping, and when she wakes up, she's not very energetic. Could it be that something went wrong during her evolution process when she chose your bloodline?"

Bai Fei withdrew her gaze, her fingertips unconsciously brushing against the vines hanging beside her.

A few wisps of pale golden planktonic spores immediately floated up following her movement, forming a thin wisp of smoke under the pale blue light.

"It's not a mishap, it's a good thing," Bai Fei said. "The Leviathan Void Insectoids are a race that evolves by devouring their enemies. By choosing to graft my bloodline, she has essentially connected her life lineage with the underlying rules of the Leviathan Void Nest."

"The reason she's so sleepy is because Xiao Ning's body is undergoing self-reconstruction. Completely integrating the bloodline of the Leviathan Void Insects into her own bones and blood is a process that might not be completed in less than ten days to half a month."

Hearing this, Chen Feng finally felt relieved after a long period of anxiety.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good. I was worried that if she advanced to a higher level, it would damage her foundation."

"The process of advancing to the Desolate Rank is not that quick."

Bai Fei smiled as she looked at Chen Feng and slowly raised her right hand.

As soon as her fair fingertips lifted, the pale golden spores floating around seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, gathering towards her fingertips like fireflies.

The next instant, a perfectly round droplet of liquid slowly condensed from Bai Fei's fingertip...

It wasn't the crimson of ordinary flesh and blood, but rather a warm, lustrous green glass, with a few fine, dark blue lines swirling inside.

A single drop seemed to contain the primordial aura of the entire Leviathan Void Nest, which also happened to be the two colors of Bai Fei's heterochromatic eyes.

"This is the essence blood of Leviathan that I condensed myself." Bai Fei gently flicked her fingertip, slowly sending the drop of essence blood to Chen Feng. "By letting Xiao Ning take this drop of essence blood, you are essentially continuing to strengthen her Leviathan insectoid bloodline, and it will also greatly reduce the soreness and fatigue brought about by the physical reconstruction... In less than two days, she will be back to normal."

Chen Feng subconsciously raised his hand, and the drop of blood essence hung steadily in his palm.

Despite being separated by a thin energy membrane, Chen Feng could clearly feel the gentle yet powerful life essence contained within the essence blood, as if the vitality of the entire botanical garden was condensed into this one drop.

"The essence of bloodline is very precious..."

"Just one drop."

Bai Fei smiled and withdrew her hand, lowering her gaze to brush against the golden orange blossoms hanging beside her. The shimmering flowers at the tips immediately swayed with her movement.

"I can catch up in two or three days, and it's also a way of thanking you for taking such good care of me recently."

Bai Fei spoke of it casually.

However, Chen Feng knew very well what was going on in his mind.

For Zerg overlords, the Queen's primordial blood is almost non-renewable. Only when a Zerg overlord reaches a very high level or has a special Zerg bloodline can they possess more primordial blood.

At this time, Bai Fei was only a Heaven-rank expert, so such precious blood essence was naturally becoming less and less with each drop used.

"In addition, I also prepared a small gift for you, senior," Bai Fei said with a smile.

"Any gifts?"

"Actually, I wanted to ask my senior to do me a favor."

As a wisp of pale golden light slid from Bai Fei's hand, a rhomboid crystal about the size of a thumb floated up out of thin air and hung quietly between Bai Fei's palms.

The crystal was dark reddish-brown, with dark red light patterns flowing across its surface like lava, as if countless tiny roars were swirling inside.

As soon as they appeared, the pale gold spores floating around them dispersed as if they had encountered a raging fire, and even the sweet fragrance in the air was mixed with a faint trace of fierce and malevolent energy.

It clashes with the gentle and tranquil botanical garden, instead seeming to have incorporated the carnage and bloodshed of the battlefield into this soft, cloud-like garden.

"This is the resurrection stone of the Iron Slaughter Queen."

Bai Fei's tone was calm.

"When we destroyed her main hive last time, we found it deep inside the Iron Slug hive... Although the Iron Slug queen has many backup plans, as long as this spirit stone is not in her possession, it will be difficult for her to be resurrected by other means."

Chen Feng solemnly accepted the resurrection spirit stone from Bai Fei's hand.

"Even you can't destroy her?" Chen Feng asked, raising his eyes.

With Bai Fei's current Heavenly Rank strength, coupled with the Leviathan Zerg's original power, destroying a Zerg resurrection stone shouldn't be too difficult.

"It can't be destroyed." Bai Fei shook her head. "This spirit stone is already connected to the origin of the Iron Slaughter Mother Planet. Forcibly annihilating it will only alert the Iron Slaughter insectoids' planet and expose our location. What's more troublesome is... This spirit stone continues to emit sensory waves, so the remnants of the Iron Slaughter or other forces watching this stone can find my location by following it."

"So I can't leave this here. Here, it's a potential hazard that could explode at any moment."

"Okay, then I'll take her back," Chen Feng agreed.

Just after the two finished exchanging detailed requirements for the Iron Slaughter Gem, Bai Fei called out to Chen Feng, who was about to return to the real world.

Their eyes met for a moment, and the silent farewell seemed to tell the story of their unspoken feelings.

"Senior...you must take care of yourself."

"You too, Xiaobaifei."
