Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 247 Suppressing the Immortal Demon Who Was Conferred a Title!

Inside a base's mother hive on the front lines of the battlefield, Qin Mu was engrossed in his research within the flesh and blood chamber.

Before him lay hundreds of thousands of imprisoned and bound demons.

These demons vary in strength and type.

However, upon closer inspection, it can be found that they are all classified according to the same lineage, arranged from weakest to strongest.

Fleshy tentacles pierced their bodies, using the swarm's manipulation of genes to guide targeted mutations in their genes.

Forcibly modifying genes is extremely painful; demons howl in agony, and they die from time to time.

The speed at which the research on the Seed of Genes is progressing is largely due to the efforts of these demons.

Of course, the process may not be so pleasant.

……

Rumble...

Suddenly, a loud bang in the sky startled Qin Mu, who was engrossed in his research.

Through the Zerg's perception, Qin Mu saw the crimson vortex above the battlefield suddenly pause, and tens of thousands of crimson crystals carrying flames flew out from the vortex within the clouds.

After two full months of preparation, the [Abyss Crystal] has finally arrived!

"Hahaha, it's finally about to happen!"

Qin Mu stared at the scattered Abyss Crystals in the sky. The Abyss Demons within this area of ​​hundreds of millions of miles were almost wiped out, and they had finally landed!

With these tens of thousands of Abyssal Crystals, the various research projects within the Zerg Swarm will achieve a leap forward.

Over several months, hundreds of mother nests proliferated wildly, spreading creep wherever they went, and all the demons were slaughtered.

All demons targeted by the swarm of insects were annihilated.

Numerous battles erupted during this period, but none of them yielded Abyss Crystals.

Only when the insect swarm besieged the demon city of Anze, and a great battle broke out resulting in the deaths of countless demons and insectoids, did that blood-red vortex reappear in the sky.

Drawn by the crimson vortex, almost all the demons were drawn in and joined the demon ruler's side.

This caused the war between the Zerg swarm and the demons to last for several months!

"This war should be ending soon; there's no point in dragging it out any longer."

Qin Mu looked at the demon that had suddenly gone berserk without any surprise.

If it weren't for the need to evolve the swarm and wait for the arrival of the Abyssal Crystal, the swarm would have already crushed all the demons.

In the past few months, the immortal-level demon commander has also left the city many times to engage in great battles with the insect swarm.

They even killed several peak-level ninth-tier domain lord-level star beasts.

But that's about it.

The twelve peak-level world lord-level star behemoths of the swarm had fought against the demon commander and thus learned about its approximate strength.

Among the immortals, its strength is considered quite powerful, comparable to an immortal who has been granted the title of Marquis.

However, it is only comparable to being granted a noble title and immortality.

Faced with the encirclement of the insect swarm, it tried to break through and escape several times, but was blocked each time.

With two overpowered abilities—space blocking and time stopping—once targeted by the Zerg swarm and unable to quickly break through, it means being forced into a war of attrition with the Zerg.

His fate was predictable.

At Qin Mu's command, the earth trembled, and the colossal star beasts, each nearly a thousand kilometers in diameter, that had been entrenched around the mother nest suddenly rose to their feet.

The mere act of turning over caused an earthquake to occur within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers.

The magma covered by the fungal carpet erupted suddenly, like a volcanic eruption.

Starry Sky Beasts, these enormous creatures should not roam on the earth at all; only the infinite starry sky is where they belong.

The city wall, which is tens of thousands of meters high, is so majestic to humans, but in front of these cosmic behemoths, it is not even as high as their hooves.

The enormous city is as ridiculous as building blocks; a simple drift can easily destroy it.

"hold head high--"

The Flame Star Beast flapped its wings and soared into the sky, but was firmly pressed down by an invisible force from the abyss.

The sky here is too low for it to even fly, but that's enough.

A dazzling beam of light shot out from its mouth, a golden pillar of fire with a diameter of over ten kilometers sweeping across the area.

The city of demons, tens of thousands of meters high and thousands of meters thick, had vanished as if vaporized, and the golden pillar of fire extended further, destroying countless buildings and killing countless demons.

Almost simultaneously.

The twelve peak-level Starry Sky Beasts, all at the Realm Lord level, made their move, instantly causing billions of demons to fall and extinguishing the frenzied atmosphere of the entire battlefield.

The already dim sky of the Purgatory Abyss turned black the moment the twelve colossal creatures, each nearly a thousand kilometers long, took flight.

"roar--"

A demon a thousand meters tall, with flames flowing all over his body, flew out of Anze City, carrying a ram's horn warhammer.

It was incredibly angry, roaring and howling.

These enormous beasts, which appeared out of nowhere, were incredibly powerful. If it were just one, it would be manageable; it was confident it could fight them off.

Even if you're not the opponent, you can still escape.

But there were twelve of them!

Furthermore, each of them possesses extraordinary talents and is extremely difficult to deal with.

Although the insect-like demons hatched from the mountain of flesh were of average strength, their numbers were so vast that they seemed endless. Even when it summoned all the demons, it was still no match for them.

The demons who have died in these days of war number in the hundreds of billions!

But the enemy's numbers kept increasing and their strength kept growing with each battle.

For example, there is a type of demon that is extremely numerous and resembles a giant lizard. Originally, its strength was relatively weak among the higher-ranking demons, and it could be easily slaughtered by any higher-ranking demon.

However, as the battles continued for several months, the giant lizards grew stronger and stronger, eventually becoming comparable to ordinary high-ranking demons.

And this is just one of them!

There are too many cases like the giant lizard, where the demons went from having the upper hand at the beginning to gradually being defeated.

It naturally wouldn't know that the giant lizard it saw was actually one of the main units of the swarm, the Blazing Insectoid.

During the months of intense warfare, they have undergone hundreds of evolutions, some benign and some malign.

After selecting the strains that have undergone positive evolution, the new strains hatched by the swarm will naturally be stronger.

Besides the chain evolution learned from the demons, the Zerg's own evolutionary capabilities have always been at play.

The Flame Demon stood in the void, an invisible pressure spreading out, and flames began to burn around its body, spreading out and instantly covering tens of thousands of kilometers around.

The Realm of the Law of Fire!

What is the Law Domain? It is the Law Domain that is granted by the fundamental law of the universe because one has fully comprehended a lower-level fundamental law.

The eight lower-level fundamental laws are of equal status and have equal law domains, so in immortal battles, they generally do not manipulate law domains.

However, if it is a powerhouse below the Immortal level, once the Law Domain is unleashed, the world projection of an ordinary World Lord will shatter like a bubble, without any ability to resist.

hum!hum!hum!

The projections of twelve worlds were released.

The peak bloodline behemoth that chooses to evolve through cosmic crystals reaches the peak of the realm master, with an inner world that is 3000 million kilometers in diameter.

The projection of the world formed by this internal world of this scale can barely resist the domain of laws. It may be at a disadvantage, but it can still withstand it.

However, if one relies on their own evolution, reaching the peak of the World Lord level would allow them to travel 9000 million kilometers!

These twelve peak-level bloodline behemoths were carefully selected by the Chaos City Lord, and naturally, they all evolved on their own.

The moment the twelve world projections were released, they directly crushed the Flame Demon's Law Domain.

In the original timeline, Luo Feng was only at the sixth level of the Realm Lord, and his inner world, with a size of only 6000 million kilometers, was enough to suppress the domain of a typical Marquis Immortal Law.

What's more, at this moment, twelve peak World Lord level star beasts attacked at the same time.

Moreover, Qin Mu has never slacked off in his cultivation these past few days, and he has already comprehended the fourth picture in "The True Understanding of the Universe".

With the suppression of the two superior fundamental laws of time and space, how could a fire demon that barely rivals a marquis be a match for it?

"roar--"

The fire demon grew even angrier, roaring as it swung its flaming ram's horn warhammer, shattering the surrounding cosmic space. Before a demon comparable to a marquis, cosmic space was far too fragile.

The ram-horned hammer, carrying countless fragments of space, slammed down domineeringly towards the strongest golden-horned behemoth charging at the forefront.

The golden-horned behemoth, at the peak of the realm lord level, neither dodged nor evaded, but instead swung its massive, sky-covering claws to meet the attack. Patterns lit up on its dark golden horn, and its body shrank dramatically.

Unleashing a powerful innate technique!

The second layer of "The True Heaven and Earth" has an amplitude of 8 times.

Qin Mu took out half of the 10 billion Chaos Resources he obtained from the human elites and used it to strengthen the twelve peak World Lord level behemoths.

This golden-horned behemoth was the first to be enhanced!

The giant claw followed a mysterious trajectory, directly creating a massive rift in space!

boom!

Space fragments vibrated and distorted, and a powerful shockwave instantly spread tens of thousands of kilometers, causing the already boiling magma to tremble.

Large numbers of demons and insectoids died instantly in the impact.

At the moment of impact, the fire demon's body was slammed into the ground like a meteor.

How to confront a cosmic behemoth like the Golden Horned Beast head-on?

How could someone be so desperate!

Although this golden-horned behemoth was only at the peak of the World Lord level, Qin Mu immediately infused it with a full thousand Blood Crystals, causing its overall strength to increase by 20 times!

The Golden Horned Beast is a creature with 10 times the genetic potential, its strength has increased twentyfold, and a casual strike can reach the power of a peak World Lord 200 times.

Once he unleashes his talent enhancement, his strength doubles again, reaching 400 times the power of a peak Realm Lord.

In the second level of "The True World", with an eight-fold power amplification, the power of this strike has reached 3200 times the power of a peak world lord!

This demon was barely a Marquis (possessing about 1000 times the power of a ninth-level World Lord at its peak). Although it also had a bloodline inheritance, it was still no match for a creature like the Golden Horned Beast.

It's not just a simple suppression of power; Qin Mu has fifteen Beast God statues in his possession.

These past few days, the peak star behemoths within the swarm have been comprehending, and this claw strike is an attack technique they've learned from the Beast God statue!

Not to mention, it was also wearing the claw weapon that Qin Mu had taken from the Immortal Temple, as well as the divine armor.

Although it doesn't directly add thousands or tens of thousands of times the power of a realm lord like soldiers or generals, it still has a certain amplitude.

All things considered, its strength is among the stronger ones in the Immortal Rank system.

boom--

The moment the fire demon touched the earth, it unleashed a deafening roar, causing the ground to cave in, and its body shattered into pieces upon impact.

But the next moment, its body quickly recovered and it soared into the sky again.

This is the means to achieve immortality and be granted a title of nobility—an immortal body!

Possessing an immortal body, every cell is completely integrated with a spiritual imprint, and each cell can be considered a part of the soul. There is no longer a clearly visible soul, only the most basic spiritual imprint can be detected.

Even if the soul is scattered and turned to ashes, as long as a single cell fragment remains, it can quickly absorb energy and body fragments, rapidly recovering to its original state, with almost no energy loss throughout the body.

This attack, while seemingly causing considerable damage to the Flame Demon, actually had no impact on his strength.

hum-

The divine power within the Flame Demon's body surged dramatically, and the divine power burned!

The attack power increases a thousandfold when burning divine power, but the burning divine power is permanently lost, so immortals will not use this move unless absolutely necessary.

But the next moment, an extremely strong temporal fluctuation erupted from the body of the Destroyer Beast.

Talent – ​​Time Freeze!

At the same time, extremely strong spatial fluctuations appeared.

Space lockdown!

The fire demon's body remained motionless, like an insect encased in amber, maintaining its explosive posture.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A dozen or so terrifying attacks landed on the fire demon's body, turning it into dust.

Although the time freeze only lasted for a short three breaths, that was enough time to kill it ten thousand times over!

But what terrified the fire demon the most was that incredibly powerful explosive attack!

The method of combined attack by the swarm!

There are generally two ways to kill a Marquis-level Immortal who possesses an immortal body.

First, the destruction of the soul; second, forced annihilation.

A single combined attack from a million ordinary World Lord Zerg can severely injure a peak-level King!
