Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 220 Taking Action

"Since we're planning to leave, it's about time to make some changes to the arrangements in the Temple of Immortality."

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Qin Mu's eyes.

More than 30 years ago, he arranged for Iceberg to infiltrate the Temple of Immortality, and over the years he has also captured hundreds of elite disciples of the Temple of Immortality.

These elite disciples were transformed by Qin Mu and successfully fused with three Blood Crystals, returning smoothly to the Immortal Temple.

They are distributed across the various levels and departments of the Temple of Immortality.

When necessary, they can be mobilized and become a considerable force.

"The C-class treasure vault on the 9016th floor of the Immortal Temple, although not the most important treasure vault in the Immortal Temple, still contains astonishing resources."

Qin Mu recalled the many treasures he saw in the vault when he was patrolling and guarding the ice mountain.

The C-class treasure vault is an immortal deity's treasure vault, containing thousands of treasures, each of which only immortal deities are qualified to use.

Any one of these items is worth over a million Hunyuan.

Some of these treasures are even coveted by those who have achieved the highest rank of king or immortal.

In addition to numerous treasures, this treasure vault also contains a massive collection of Blood Crystals, numbering in the hundreds of millions!

"It's unrealistic to collect all the treasures. They are all protected by powerful forces. Only the King-level Immortal is qualified to take them. Others need a specific token to receive them."

Qin Mu's mind raced. Iceberg had once come into contact with that immortal king and copied his soul aura, so using this to open the treasure shouldn't be a problem.

But this will take time!

Moreover, Qin Mu could not guarantee that taking the treasure would not alert the immortal king.

Therefore, once the bail process begins, one must acquire the most valuable treasure as quickly as possible and then immediately leave, flying out of the eighteen layers of clouds.

Otherwise, if the powerful figures of the Immortal Temple are alerted, they will likely be subdued instantly.

Don't underestimate the Temple of Immortality; it's a place with a Cosmic Venerable overseeing it, a place that even the Virtual Universe Corporation couldn't completely conquer.

Fortunately, these powerful cosmic venerables rarely manage the Immortal Temple themselves; most matters are handled by the immortal powerhouses.

Although Iceberg, as a peak realm master, managed to infiltrate the guard team of the Class C treasure vault, this level of treasure vault naturally had an immortal god in charge.

Not only are there immortal gods presiding over it, but it is also an extremely powerful king-level immortal.

Besides this immortal king, there are two other patrol teams in the treasury, each led by a peak realm lord.

Trying to forcibly seize the treasure is tantamount to courting death!

However, there was a reason why Qin Mu chose this particular treasure trove among the many treasure vaults in the Immortal Temple.

This immortal king has a disciple!

His name is Blood God "Ba Qi", and he is known as the greatest genius in the Immortal Temple in billions of years.

"If you want to seize the resources in the treasure vault, this Blood God 'Overlord' is the key."

A smile appeared on Qin Mu's lips.

The reason he kept this Blood God "Overlord's Ambition" was for this very moment.

As the greatest genius in the Immortal Temple for billions of years, what if he were attacked by extraterrestrials and his life hung by a thread?

What will his master do?

Nine out of ten people would choose to carry out a rescue!

Then, the opportunity has arrived.

The solution is simple: lure the tiger away from the mountain.

However, the specific operation is not that simple.

That's the core area of ​​the Immortal Temple. Even without a King-level Immortal guarding it, it wouldn't be easy to seize the treasures silently.

"Besides the treasure vault, those fifteen beast god statues must also be taken."

Qin Mu narrowed his eyes slightly. The Beast God Statue was an important treasure for those who walked the Path of the Beast God.

There are 18 of these Beast God statues in the Blood Luo Continent. Each one is about 30 centimeters in size and is carved from a semi-transparent golden material.

In one of the halls of the Temple of Immortality, there are 15 statues of the Beast God.

Over the past decade, Qin Mu had experienced this through an elite Zerg disciple whom Iceberg had arranged to guard the statue.

Even just looking at the statue through the body of that elite disciple, one could vaguely sense a chilling aura.

The fifteen statues of the beast god all depict the same wild beast, but each one has a different pose and posture.

It resembles a giant lizard, with a long tail, thick hooves, and a single horn on its forehead.

With Qin Mu's knowledge, he naturally knew that this was actually the Golden Sky Beast God.

When viewing the Beast God statue from the perspective of the Golden Horned Beast through the Zerg swarm network, one can appreciate the artistic conception and spiritual charm contained within the statue.

Seeing that statue is like seeing the living, breathing beast god.

By observing the Beast God statue and reflecting upon it, the Golden Horned Beast could understand how to cultivate and improve. Perhaps the Beast God statue wasn't as wondrous as the Chaos Stele.

However, for the Golden Horned Beast, the Beast God Statue was even more important than the Chaos Monument.

Among the Zerg swarm, the Golden Horned Beast is one of only two creatures with a legacy, making its importance self-evident.

Fortunately, the Beast God statue was not valued in the Temple of Immortality, and no one ever discovered the meaning behind it.

Therefore, the people responsible for guarding the statue are not very strong, and the leader is only at the level of a realm lord.

Taking it by surprise is not difficult.

……

Virtual Universe, Yuxiangshan Public Area.

"Brother Mu, I have successfully entered the core space of the evil energy vortex, and it is currently being illuminated by golden light."

Luo Feng laughed heartily.

After thirty years of arduous training and constant tempering of his will, he finally succeeded in entering the core of the vortex of malevolent energy.

Entering the core of the evil energy vortex is no easy feat, which means that his will is extremely firm, even more so than that of most realm lords!

Based on the number of layers of the islands in the Illusionary Sea, passing the ninth one should not be a problem.

Congratulations!

Qin Mu offered his congratulations.

This was indeed a great joy for Luo Feng, because with the continuous breakthrough of his will, he had already fused nine, and now fusing a tenth one was not a big problem.

The difference between fusing ten and fusing nine is like heaven and earth.

"Congratulations!"

Hong, standing to the side, also offered his congratulations with a smile.

Luo Feng's ability to improve his will so quickly is inseparable from the help of the two of them.

Over the past thirty years, Qin Mu and the other three would occasionally get together to exchange their experiences.

"It's about time to leave. Once Luo Feng's body has completed its transformation, we'll prepare to depart."

I'll be making some moves then, and it'll be very troublesome if we don't leave.

After chatting for a while, Qin Mu spoke up.

Simply irradiating them with golden light doesn't take too long; given their physical condition, it would reach saturation in two or three months at most.

Further irradiation will be ineffective.

The reason Qin Mu stayed inside was simply to use the golden light to stabilize the genes of the experimental subjects.

"Hmm, it's about time."

Hong nodded. Over the years, he had gained a lot from comprehending the ancient images, but he had already grasped most of what he could, so there was no point in staying any longer.

"I haven't gained much from comprehending the ancient images in the past two years. Let's leave together then."

The same applies to Thor.

"Yes, we've gained so much in these 30 years. Let's leave together when the time comes."

"I've been so busy cultivating these past few years that I haven't been able to cross the Heavenly Bridge yet. Want to try it together? My teacher, True King Yan, is urging me to."

Luo Feng said with a smile.

"Hehe, I haven't tried it in all these years. With my current strength, I should have no problem getting through the fifth or sixth floor."

Thor's eyes lit up, and he smiled.

Over the past thirty years, his strength has undergone a qualitative leap.

With the insight into the Sixty-Fold Law, how could one not improve rapidly under such an extraordinary opportunity?

"good!"

Hong also smiled; his strength had also improved remarkably, and now was the perfect time to showcase it.

At the core of the virtual universe company, if you have the strength, show it openly; only then can you obtain better resources!

"You guys go ahead, I won't go. Over the years, although I've improved somewhat, I've only managed to clear two or three levels at most, so it doesn't mean much to me."

Qin Mu laughed, saying that he was different from Luo Feng and the other two. As a disciple of the Chaos City Lord, he had already passed through the 13th floor of the Tower of Babel thirty years ago, so two more floors wouldn't make much difference.

Of course, this is of little use only for Qin Mu.

The further you go on the Sky Bridge, the harder it becomes to cross; each level you advance represents a leap in strength.

"You're amazing!"

"Haha, once we get through the Tongtian Bridge, the reputation of the three of us clinging to someone's coattails will probably be impossible to shake off."

At that time, I wonder how many people will be envious and jealous.

Qin Mu, you'd better be prepared for the scene where your imposing figure trembles and your followers from all sides bow down in submission.

Thor gave a thumbs-up and laughed heartily.

Thor's words made Hong and Luo Feng both cover their faces and laugh.

This time, the three of them truly won without lifting a finger. Needless to say, they completed both missions as soon as they arrived on the Blood Continent, earning 11 points.

The essence of life is thus transformed.

If Qin Mu were willing to take on followers, plenty of geniuses would be willing to do so.

Amidst laughter and conversation, Luo Feng and his two companions headed to the Tongtian Bridge, while Qin Mu logged off to return and rest.

……

Two months later.

Above the ruins of the ancient gods, a mechanical spaceship disguised as a meteorite floats silently.

Qin Mu, who was sitting cross-legged and cultivating, suddenly narrowed his eyes.

"The sixteenth statue has appeared!"

In the ruins of the ancient gods, in a lake tens of thousands of kilometers deep, a spatial fluctuation rippled outwards.

Whoosh!

A wandering demon slayer quickly flew over along the spatial fluctuations.

When the Demon Slayers arrived, the soil below suddenly trembled, and a canyon was opened in the lakebed, revealing some ancient and decaying weapons.

After a brief search, the Demon Slayer Clan discovered a large amount of valuable materials, and the surrounding swarm of insects quickly gathered around.

The swarm has experienced similar events more than ten times, so they are very skilled at it.

"Is anyone there?"

The Demon Slayer turned to look behind him and saw two figures dressed in the uniforms of the Immortal Temple rapidly descending, clearly having also noticed the commotion below.

"die!"

The Demon Slayer Clan erupted instantly, his body twisting and merging into the space.

As if piercing through space, it appeared in front of the two in the next instant, a long spear like a dragon emerging from the sea, instantly piercing their throats.

Ordinary domain lords are slaughtered like chickens and dogs in front of the Demon Slayer Clan.

As the surrounding Zerg units continued to gather and collect supplies, they soon discovered a statue, a statue about 30 centimeters in size.

It is a beast god statue carved from jade and gold!

First Beast God Statue Acquired!

"It's time to make a move."

There was a light in Qin Mu's eyes.

"Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, prepare to leave the Ancient God Ruins. I'm about to make my move!"

Through the virtual universe, Qin Mu contacted the three people who were cultivating.

"Okay!" x3

The three responded immediately.

They knew about Qin Mu's plans for the Immortal Temple.

From the three vortexes of malevolent energy in the ruins of the ancient gods, a figure flew out and soared into the sky. After breaking through eighteen layers of clouds, each figure took out a spaceship and flew towards the Heavenly Eclipse Palace.

Underground, near the giant pit where the Blood God "Ba Qi" was located, a large number of Demon Slayers were silently gathering.

More than twenty powerful realm lords who had been transformed into insectoid beings also appeared from all directions to prepare for an encirclement and kill.

All the spies lurking in the Immortal Temple also became active, creating chaos and creating opportunities for Iceberg and others.

In the sky, Qin Mu piloted the mechanical race's spaceship.

It would be very difficult to force the Blood God "Baqi" into a desperate situation and get the immortal king's teacher to take action using the existing Zerg units.

The current swarm is only at the ninth level of the Domain Lord level. Unless they launch a large-scale attack or the perfect divine body experimental subject unleashes its full power, it will be difficult for them to threaten the Blood God "Ba Qi" who is at the peak of the Realm Lord level.

Therefore, at this time, we need to rely on some external help.

For example, let the mechanical race's spaceship's planet-destroying cannon aim at the Blood God "Ba Qi" in the giant crater and fire a shot.

My eyes feel uncomfortable, and my vision suddenly became blurry. I'll rest today.
