Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 271 Luo Feng's Super Golden Horned Beast Clone

For top researchers, while methods and processes are important, direction is even more crucial.

For Qin Mu, the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual was his direction.

Because of the limitations imposed by the rules of the universe, he was unable to cultivate the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual".

Qin Mu benefited greatly from observing the cosmic cycle built within Luo Feng's body and how the simulated inner universe propelled the evolution of his body's genes.

Luo Feng's successfully transformed genes are extremely important material for Qin Mu.

The direction of Qin Mu's research on genes, or rather the direction of the insect swarm, is actually different from that of the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual".

The direction the swarm takes is to absorb the genes of superior organisms and evolve to move closer to perfection.

The Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, on the other hand, promotes its own genetic evolution by simulating the laws governing the universe.

One seeks external gains, the other seeks internal gains.

There is no difference in elevation between the two directions.

In Qin Mu's view, the way the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual" was improved was somewhat similar to the way the Lord of the Universe was improved.

The Lord of the Universe has no genetic limitations and can evolve to 10081 times the genetic potential.

Qin Mu guessed that it was very likely that their understanding of the laws of the universe had reached an extremely high level, achieving an effect similar to the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual" in simulating the laws of the universe's operation.

However, the gap between the secret techniques created by the level of the Lord of the Universe and those created by the God-King level is still too great.

The genetic multiples of most universe masters are only two or three thousand.

Cultivating the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual" can easily lead to a perfect genetic level.

Furthermore, if the swarm becomes stronger, it can capture a large number of life forms with extremely high gene multiplication rates and absorb their superior genes, theoretically achieving perfect genes.

It's difficult, but not without hope.

"Whether you seek internal growth or external expansion, it's essentially about evolving your genes."

"These two paths don't conflict. I can absolutely walk both!"

Qin Mu's eyes were bright.

You can only walk faster and farther by walking on two legs!

Of course, it is more difficult for one's own genes to evolve directly than for a swarm to absorb superior genes.

Even with Luo Feng, who cultivated the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, as the experimental subject, the same applies.

The more Qin Mu studied it, the more he admired the creator of the secret technique, Zuo Shan Ke.

This is truly a secret technique created with painstaking effort by a being of god-king level.

This secret method allows Luo Feng's body to simulate the cosmic cycle; only those who have thoroughly understood the essence of the universe can achieve this.

The universe is mysterious and unpredictable.

There are so many kinds of rules alone.

When the universe is truly in operation, many laws are integrated and intertwined, much like many gears meshing and turning.

Time and space are inseparable; only when time and space are integrated can the most basic framework of the universe be formed.

Therefore, understanding the workings and cycles of the universe is much more difficult than understanding the laws of time and space alone.

Observe the universe through esoteric evolution!

The laws of space, the laws of time, the elements of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, light, lightning... these fundamental laws of the universe are only a part of how the universe works.

Due to limitations in his abilities and other factors, Luo Feng's simulation of the universe's operation only contained some of its characteristics, but even that was extremely incredible.

"I have gained the recognition of all ten fundamental laws, and I have comprehended a profound mystery in the fundamental law of space."

In terms of understanding the laws, most marquises and even some kings are not as powerful as me.

However, I still can't understand the operation of the cosmic laws simulated inside Luo Feng's body.

Through the vision of the Mother Nest, Luo Feng's 72000 auxiliary crystalline threads and 1440 main threads perfectly combined the Force Crystal Sphere, Soul Crystal Sphere, and body, simulating the entire interior of his body as an "inner universe."

Qin Mu tried to simulate this cycle inside the mother nest, but he couldn't do it at all.

Luo Feng was able to do it because he truly relied on secret techniques.

"It's okay, I can take my time to look at it and study it. This will greatly help me to understand the fundamental laws."

Perhaps I can glean the method of merging laws from this.

Qin Mu was not surprised by this result.

……

Time flies, and a month has already passed.

Luo Feng failed to cultivate the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual" three times, but his gene multiplier increased by more than two times. His own gene multiplier reached 23 times, and after activating the Blood Luo Power, it reached 230 times.

"Luo Feng, if humans on Earth can cultivate this secret technique, then the Golden Horned Beast, which is also a life form of flesh and blood, should also be able to cultivate it."

Qin Mu said.

"Yes, I think so too."

Luo Feng nodded as well.

Over the past month, Qin Mu has offered many suggestions during his cultivation process, helping him to evolve his cultivation techniques more quickly.

Cultivating the "Nine Tribulations Secret Scripture" involves simulating the operation of the universe and driving genetic evolution.

There are two key factors: first, a strong enough body; and second, a more perfect cosmic cycle.

The stronger the body, the better. Imagine some powerful immortal gods who can be resurrected with just a fragment of a cell.

Then there is no danger in cultivation.

Even if it turns to ashes, it can reassemble and continue to try to cultivate!

Of course, Luo Feng also has the same safety benefits because he has clones.

The internal simulation constitutes the cosmic cycle, and although the secret manual describes how to set it up, it is only a general explanation.

According to the secret manual, if the established cosmic cycle is truly close to perfection and close to the true mysteries of the cosmic cycle, then even the weakest body will not have any problems during cultivation.

With Qin Mu's help to monitor the genes in his body and the operation of the secret technique, Luo Feng would be immediately alerted if any abnormality occurred, making the arranged cosmic cycle closer to perfection.

This way, the effects of cultivation will certainly be better.

This is a win-win situation.

"I suggest you don't rush to have the Golden Horned Beast cultivate the secret technique. Before that, let me first help you increase the Golden Horned Beast's gene multiplier!"

There was a light in Qin Mu's eyes.

"Your human genes had already reached 10 times the genetic potential before you even began practicing the secret techniques, giving you the talent for spatial sealing."

However, the Golden Horned Beast's genes have not been improved; they remain at 10 times the normal level.

In the past, my research on genes was limited, and I was unable to help you improve the Golden Horned Beast's genes. Now I have a new understanding.

I can help you increase the Golden Horned Beast's genes by 20 times, or even 30 times!

"Then you can practice the secret techniques even more effectively!"

Luo Feng's spirits lifted. What a great thing!

Increase the Golden Horned Beast's genes by 20 times, 30 times!

Back then, if the secret cultivation method could triple the gene boost, wouldn't it be possible to directly reach 60 or 90 times the boost?

On this basis, how much can the power of Bloodlust be enhanced upon activation?

Has Brother Mu's research in genetics reached such a terrifying level?

Seeing Luo Feng's expression, Qin Mu smiled.

"Come with me! Inside this mother nest, there is an inner world."

There are some Zerg units I stockpiled for a potential Earth crisis, as well as some of my experimental results.

A surge of spatial power enveloped Luo Feng. He did not resist, allowing this power to carry him into the inner world of the Mother Nest.

"This world!"

Luo Feng was stunned by the scene inside his body.

This is an inner world composed of an incredibly vast continent of flesh and blood and a boundless sea of ​​blood.

The flesh-and-blood continent is millions of kilometers in diameter and is filled with flesh-and-blood chambers of varying sizes, from which massive Zerg units are born.

Turning his gaze towards the sea of ​​blood, Luo Feng could easily see, with his eyesight, that the sea of ​​blood was full of sleeping Zerg units.

Among the hundreds of millions of Zerg units, dozens of enormous cosmic behemoths stood out.

Golden Horned Beast, Fiery Star Beast, Mountain and Ravine Beast...

Judging from their aura, each one was no weaker than his golden-horned behemoth clone.

"These are all colossal star beasts with peak bloodlines! There are actually so many colossal star beasts with peak bloodlines!"

Luo Feng murmured to himself, hardly believing his eyes.

"Brother Mu, what is that? The aura emanating from that humanoid behemoth terrifies me."

Luo Feng saw a Hive Tyrant sitting cross-legged near the mother hive.

"That's the Hive Tyrant! My pinnacle achievement in genetics. Its own genetic multiplier has reached 100 times, and if the Blood Luo Power is activated, it can reach 6000 times the genetic multiplier."

I solidified the Golden Horned Beast's talent enhancement onto his body, which, once activated, can reach approximately ten thousand times its original strength.

Qin Mu's tone was filled with pride.

"Ten thousand times the genetic potential!"

Luo Feng stared at the Hive Tyrant in disbelief, and involuntarily swallowed.

"Yes, this is the result of the first phase of my research on the Perfect Divine Body Project."

The first phase of the Perfect Divine Body Project was based on my genes, incorporating the superior genes of five peak-bloodline star beasts and some other powerful star beasts.

Qin Mu explained.

"Through the power of Bloodlust, his talent enhancement can reach 10,000 times the gene, but his original gene is only 100 times."

"Through the higher-ups in humanity, I have obtained twelve peak-bloodline star beasts and begun research on the second stage of the perfect divine body."

If the second phase is successful, then perhaps I can break through the 100-fold gene multiplier, reaching 200, 300, or even higher.

"It's just that I've never been able to fuse the genes of the twelve peak bloodline star beasts in the past."

With your secret method, I have a new idea, and perhaps in a while, the experiment will yield a breakthrough.

Luo Feng was shocked.

"Is the 100x gene transfer just the first stage?"

Qin Mu nodded.

"This enhancement can only apply to my swarm. You can think of my swarm as a special kind of life. The hundredfold genetic limitation imposed by the rules of the universe does not exist for my swarm."

With that secret method, you too can break through the genetic limit of a hundredfold.

"Release your Golden Horned Beast clone. I need to collect some genetic data to create a customized plan for you."

Without hesitation, Luo Feng released a golden-horned behemoth, hundreds of kilometers in size, from the original core.

"The upgrade of the Golden Horned Beast will take some time, I estimate it may take three years."

If all goes well, your Golden Horned Beast clone will have 30 times the genetic potential in three years.

At that time, I was practicing a secret technique, which increased my power by 90 times.

……

"Once Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast clone's genes are increased to 90 times, I can also obtain the Golden Horned Beast's life structure diagram with 90 times the genes."

Inside Chaos City, Qin Mu lowered his head in deep thought.

"With the life structure diagram of the super golden-horned behemoth with 90 times the genes, the improvement of other peak bloodline star behemoths will have a direction. I'm confident that they can be improved to 70 or 80 times, if not 90 times."

"The original second-stage perfect divine body plan needs to be revised."

His gaze turned toward the endless currents of air outside Chaos City, and his eyes gradually sharpened.

"We should also focus on studying the venom that can annihilate a god's body."

"A large-scale war is about to begin!"
