Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 201 Descending into the Blood Luo World

Dark universe.

A spaceship bearing the logo of Virtual Universe Corporation is flying at high speed, constantly accelerating, 20 times the speed of light... 21 times the speed of light... until it reaches 50 times the speed of light!

The spaceship is heading towards the Primordial Realm, which is about 1.2 million light-years away from the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company. Even if the spaceship accelerates to 50 times the speed of light, it will take nearly 3 months to travel in the dark universe.

During these three months, Qin Mu naturally needed to make some preparations.

Heading to the Blood Luo World was something he had planned long ago, so after leaving Chaos City, he went straight to the Blood Luo World.

Blood Luo World is a dangerous cultivation world located in the Primordial Secret Realm.

There were many good things among them that Qin Mu coveted.

For example, Blood Crystal!

Whether it's his memories from his past life or his privilege of becoming the personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord, Qin Mu knows that the Blood Crystal is actually the blood of the Golden Beast God!

One hundred Blood Crystals can be refined into one drop of true [Beast God's Blood].

The Golden Beast God is a terrifying being at the level of a cosmic lord.

If the Golden Horned Beast is the darling of the source of gold, then the Golden Beast God is the embodiment of the source of gold!

How could he not be interested in a super being of this level?

Unlike others who only use Blood Crystals for cultivation, he wanted to use them more for research!

If we could analyze the genetic blueprint of the Golden Beast God through the blood of the Beast God…

Even if it doesn't work, it would still be of great help to the study of gene evolution.

When the swarm evolved to the cosmic level, Qin Mu's body, using the Domain Lord's potion, fused with the genes of the Golden Horned Beast, the Blazing Beast, and the Void Python, achieving a 10-fold increase in gene density.

But now, with only ten times the gene, it is clearly no longer enough to meet Qin Mu's needs.

At that time, he only had the genes of three powerful star beasts: the Golden Horned Beast, the Blazing Flame Beast, and the Void Serpent. But the swarm now has the genes of five peak-bloodline star beasts.

It would be such a waste not to make good use of it.

Inside a room on the spaceship, a screen appeared in front of Qin Mu.

He sat in the chair, and a virtual screen appeared in front of him.

On the virtual screen, there is a system called the backend management system.

Qin Mu gently clicked on it, and the file opened automatically, displaying a page with three options.

"Life" - "Learning" - "Cultivation".

This is a system that all core members will have after leaving Chaos City.

Qin Mu clicked on the "Life" section, which contained numerous subcategories.

There were many options, including "Star Map", "Food", "Nutrition Chamber", "Residence", and "Spaceship", and Qin Mu clicked on them all to take a look.

This section contains solutions to various problems encountered while living in a primitive, secret realm. Among them, the "Nutrition Capsule" is the option to soak in the nutrient capsule to reach the highest level of this class.

Most importantly, soaking in the nutrient capsule is free!

Once you apply, someone from the Virtual Universe company will deliver it to you.

Even regular AD-class ships are free, but D-class and above require payment.

Qin Mu checked the funds in his account and found that he could currently use 3 Hunyuan.

Some of this money was earned during the Genius Wars, while the remainder came from the profits the Huaxia Universe Nation made in finance, trade, and other fields.

Of course, this is only the money that can be used; some of it has been invested and cannot be withdrawn in the short term.

He zoomed in on the spaceship options, filtered them, and blocked spaceships below level E. As for level F spaceships, after taking a look, Qin Mu also decisively blocked them.

An F-class spaceship costs hundreds of thousands or even millions of coins.

For example, the Yunmo Starship that Luo Feng owns is worth 360 million Hunyuan, which is far beyond what he can afford with the little money he has.

After filtering, a large number of spaceships appeared in the list.

That's right, Qin Mu plans to buy himself a spaceship for transportation.

The Blood Luo world is very large, with a diameter of nearly 1 light-year. It's inconvenient to travel without a good spaceship.

At this stage, swarms of insects are still not as convenient as spaceships, and E-class spaceships can be used to escape in critical moments.

The difference between E-class spaceships is also significant. For example, an E-class spaceship used by an ordinary World Lord costs about 1 trillion cosmic coins, which is equivalent to 1 Chaos Unit.

A top-tier E-class spaceship can typically reach trillions of cosmic coins, equivalent to hundreds of mixed units.

However, the top-tier mechanical race spaceship among the E-class peak spaceships is worth one or two thousand Hunyuan!

After browsing for a while, Qin Mu chose the best-performing mechanical race spaceship, worth 2000 Hunyuan, and clicked to buy it.

The delivery location was set in the Bloodlust World.

Back in Earth's time, the mechanical race's spaceship was a treasure that Qin Mu coveted, but now it's no different for him than an ordinary person buying a car.

In addition to the spaceship, Qin Mu then opened the weapons and equipment section.

The Blood Luo World is extremely hostile to outsiders, so Qin Mu needs to disguise himself.

When accepting the cultivation mission in the Blood Luo World, you must first be aware that you are not allowed to bring any technological items. You are also not allowed to bring any special telekinetic weapons or force weapons unless they are available in the Blood Luo World.

They must dress like ordinary people in the Bloodlust world.

The Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Wheel, a combination of divine weapons rarely seen even in the primordial universe, is definitely not something to be used casually. If you use it, you must be prepared to eliminate all witnesses.

Divine weapons like the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Wheel are somewhat acceptable, but if you play with a laser gun in the Blood Luo World and are discovered by the super strong people, world lords, and immortals of the Blood Luo World, you will inevitably be hunted down by the entire Blood Luo World.

Because the Blood Luo world has not conducted any research in the field of technology.

Although he entered the Blood Luo World with the intention of causing trouble, and might even clash with the World Lord or even an Immortal, he would have to wait until he was fully prepared.

He quickly selected a set of combat boots and armor that existed in the Bloodlust world.

Then Qin Mu selected a full ten thousand sets of fourth-tier Force weapons, Force armor, and combat boots.

Tier 4 Force weapons are very cheap; you can buy a large batch with just a few points.

These were naturally prepared for the ten thousand Demon Slayers in the insect swarm.

After buying everything he needed, Qin Mu closed the "Life" tab and opened the "Study" tab.

The learning section is divided into 'Theory' and 'Practice'!

The theory is mainly taught in open classes throughout the entire Primal Zone, usually by immortal beings, and occasionally even by 'Cosmic Kings'!

These courses either discuss the eight fundamental laws of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, and light, or the two most difficult fundamental laws of space and time.

There are also courses that combine "space and metal" and "space and wood".

There are also some skills courses.

There are also conscious training courses.

……

There are all sorts of courses, taught by at least Immortals, and occasionally by Cosmic Sovereigns. These open courses belong to the 'Primordial Zone,' and only members of the Primordial Zone can attend!

The learning section is divided into theory and practice, with the theory section featuring lectures by many experts.

The Practice section is divided into "Bridge to Heaven", "Illusory Sea", and "Immortal Altar".

The page also includes information about the three.

The Bridge to Heaven: Core members of the Virtual Universe Company are qualified to attempt the Bridge to Heaven. The Bridge to Heaven tests one's understanding of the fundamental laws of the universe; the deeper the understanding, the higher the level of the Bridge to Heaven one can conquer. The higher the level, the more points one earns!

The Illusionary Sea: Core members of the Virtual Universe Company are qualified to venture into the Illusionary Sea. The Illusionary Sea tests a cultivator's strength of consciousness and willpower! Consciousness and willpower are extremely important in cultivation, breaking through bottlenecks, and combat. Venturing into the Illusionary Sea involves going deeper and deeper from the outermost layer... The deeper one goes into the Illusionary Sea, the more points one can obtain!

The Immortal Altar: The Immortal Altar tests physical strength. The same body can unleash vastly different power from different cultivators! Pure brute force is 1 unit, some powerful cultivators can reach 10 units, 20 units… The true limit of physical strength is 100 units, which signifies perfect control of the body. Perfect control of physical power is a prerequisite for breaking through to immortality. The Immortal Altar… tests physical strength! The stronger the strength exerted, the more points are gained!

Of these three training grounds, the Bridge to Heaven is one that Qin Mu has just completed.

However, I haven't been to the Illusionary Sea or the Immortal Altar yet.

He will definitely try those two things later, but there's no rush now.

After viewing the "Life" and "Study" sections in the backend management system, Qin Mu clicked on the last section, "Cultivation."

This is used by the Virtual Universe Company for its members at the cosmic level to hone their skills.

True strength cannot be forged in a comfortable environment.

Only through repeated, bloody battles can one truly surpass oneself and become stronger.

Moreover, you can earn points by accepting tasks!

In the Virtual Universe Company, points are more important than money.

Cultivation tasks are like trials and tribulations in real life.

Cultivation missions are divided into five levels based on their degree of danger: 'Safe Level', 'Normal Level', 'Difficult Level', 'Dangerous Level', and 'Extreme Level'.

Safety level: Mortality rate is 0.

Ordinary level: Mortality rate is 10%.

Difficult level: Mortality rate is 20%.

Danger level: Mortality rate is 50%.

Desperate level: Mortality rate is 90%.

Qin Mu chose the Blood Luo World mission, which is of the Danger level!

Clicking on the danger level, Qin Mu had seen this list before.

The following is a list of crisis-level missions:

1. Visca (within the original secret realm of the Virtual Universe Company)

2. Seven Flames Palace (within the Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company)

……

6. Green Goblin World (Virtual Universe Company's Post-Apocalyptic Secret Realm)

……

9 Dragon Tower Star (Primordial Secret Realm of Virtual Universe Company)

……

18 Nine Star Sea (Giant Axe Arena, Giant Axe Secret Realm)

……

29. Prison Battlefield (Glory Secret Realm of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance)

……

36 Blood Luo World (Primordial Secret Realm of Virtual Universe Company)

……

186. Flame and Ice Continent (within the Black Hole Secret Realm of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank)

The list is densely packed, with a total of 186 available tasks. All the training missions take place in various secret realms.

These secret realms have all been mastered and modified by the five giants of humanity in the universe. Among these many secret realms, there are 186 special areas where cultivation missions are located.

Therefore, cultivating in a secret realm is relatively safe.

Although Blood Luo World ranks 38th among dangerous missions, Qin Mu believes that this mission is more valuable than many desperate missions!

This is also an important reason why he chose the Blood Luo World.

Low risk, high reward—who wouldn't like a mission like that?!

Open the Bloodlust World Quest.

Immediately, information about the Blood Luo World was revealed.

"The Blood Luo World is a vast continent suspended in the void, born from the Primordial Secret Realm. The Cosmic Secret Realm is born during the evolution of the universe, while the Blood Luo World is a powerful world that was born in the very early period of the Primordial Secret Realm. Its antiquity surpasses that of the oldest cosmic kingdoms of mankind."

In the world of Blood Luo, countless powerful humans live, and they have developed their own language, culture, and cultivation civilization.

They have an extreme worship of power.

……

The information about the Blood Luo World is very detailed, especially after Qin Mu used the permissions granted by the Chaos City Lord to view it, even more detailed information appeared.

There are two cultivation missions in the Blood Luo World:

1. Obtain one Blood Crystal (a specialty of the Blood Crystal World; Blood Crystals are not found anywhere else in the universe). Success will earn you 1 points.

2. Obtain the title of "Blood Warrior" and receive the "Blood Luo Medal." Success will grant 10 points. (Note: 99.5% of those who accept the Blood Luo World quest will complete the first quest.)

Once either task is completed, the cultivation mission is considered successfully completed.

Qin Mu had already accepted the mission. After carefully studying the information about the Blood Luo World for a while, he made preparations, such as learning the language of the Blood Luo World.

Qin Mu then began his cultivation.

Three months passed quickly during the training.

"Your Highness, immediately initiate a space travel mission to return to the original universe."

A deep male voice rang out from inside the spaceship, while a countdown timer echoed in the spaceship's control room.

Ten seconds later, the entire spaceship began to vibrate slightly, but soon everything returned to calm, and the spaceship had arrived at its destination.

"Virtual outdoor scenes."

Qin Mu gave the order, and the surrounding scenery changed, revealing the void outside.

A thin mist lingered outside the spaceship, making the various fragments of void dust appear even more dreamlike. In the distance, there was an incredibly tall palace, which was suspended in the void.

Having done his research beforehand, Qin Mu knew that the palace was called the Heavenly Eclipse Palace.

A top-tier cosmic overlord-level super powerhouse is stationed in this palace, responsible for monitoring the Blood Luo World.

If anyone flies out of the Blood Luo World, it's fine if they are one of the Virtual Universe Company's own people, but if they are the natives of the Blood Luo World, death is the only outcome!

A cosmic overlord is an existence even more powerful than a cosmic venerable!

After flying out of the Virtual Universe Company's spaceship, Qin Mu arrived at a platform near the Heavenly Eclipse Palace.

This is a trading area for a virtual universe company, where Qin Mu previously transferred the mechanical race spaceships, weapons, and equipment he purchased.

After confirming his identity, Qin Mu received a spatial ring from a member of a virtual universe company.

This contains all the items, including the mechanical race's spaceship.

The consciousness entered the spatial ring, where the most eye-catching thing was naturally a pyramid-shaped spaceship that was 1,200 meters tall.

After completing the recognition process, Qin Mu decisively took out the mechanical race's spaceship and placed it into a deep blue primordial core embedded inside his armor.

Yes, the pronucleus!

This is naturally the original core of that peak World Lord-level iceberg behemoth.

Inside the pronucleus lies an internal world with a diameter of 6000 million kilometers!

Within the inner world.

Towering nests of fungi covered the entire internal world.

Each mother nest is like a mountain peak, reaching an astonishing 170 kilometers!

This is the Zerg's Lord-level Tier 7 Mother Nest!

The mother nest is covered with all sorts of strange patterns and curved, sharp corners.

This is the result of its evolution into a Domain Lord level after absorbing the bloodlines of peak-level star beasts such as the Golden Horned Beast, the Flame Star Beast, the Hill and Ravine Beast, the Destroying Soaring Beast, and the Ice Mountain Beast.

As the Zerg swarm analyzes the bloodlines of various organisms, it continuously absorbs the superior genes from these organisms and fills the nest with them. This is why the Zerg are constantly growing stronger.

Around the mother nest, giant star beasts of peak bloodline lay scattered about, most of them measuring between 60 and 70 kilometers in length.

But the most eye-catching creature is a giant tortoise that is nearly 1000 kilometers long and looks like it is carrying an iceberg!

This is the most powerful iceberg behemoth in the Zerg swarm!

The mechanical race's spaceship, only 1200 meters tall, appeared in the center of the mother hive, appearing inconspicuous amidst the many cosmic behemoths surrounding it.

As the spaceship landed, a pool of silvery-white liquid rolled in from all around, enveloping the mechanical race's spaceship!

These silvery-white liquids are metallic life forms called the Berna race.

Before the Genius Battle, Qin Mu and Luo Feng purchased it at the Qianwu Auction, and it was hatched after being analyzed by the swarm.

The Berna race of metallic lifeforms can fuse with spaceships, giving them the ability to self-repair and self-upgrade.

After the mechanical race's spaceship was integrated with the Berna race's life force, Qin Mu could operate it perfectly without needing any intelligent life force!

Compared to intelligent life, Qin Mu only trusts his own swarm of insects!

Half a day later.

A smile appeared on Qin Mu's lips.

A silver-white pyramid-shaped spaceship appeared in the starry sky.

The Bernar metallic lifeforms hatched from the swarm have completely taken control of the spaceship!

Qin Mu flew into the silver pyramid spaceship without needing any orders.

The mechanical race's spaceship automatically changed its appearance, quickly transforming into a dark gray, seemingly ordinary meteorite fragment.

It then flew rapidly towards the Blood Luo World at an astonishing speed.

Standing in the control room, Qin Muyao looked ahead.

In the distance, there is an incredibly vast, almost endless continent suspended in the void, shrouded in a layer of clouds.

This is the Blood Luo World!

The first trial world Qin Mu prepared for himself, the first secret realm world the insect swarm entered.

This is an incredibly vast world, containing immortals and even powerful beings!

The Blood Luo World has welcomed another extraterrestrial!
