Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 292 The Breakthrough Feast of the Fourth Generation Gene Seed

"Congratulations, teacher!"

Inside a manor in the virtual universe, Qin Mu congratulated Teacher Yu Chen.

"Haha, what a blessing in disguise! I've finally broken through to the rank of Marquis."

Yu Chen, dressed in a white robe, smiled.

I originally thought that it would be difficult to make any progress on the path of cultivation in this lifetime, but I never expected that after becoming an immortal, I would have the opportunity to enter Chaos City to cultivate again.

They then faced a major crisis: an assassination attempt by a Venerable-level expert.

The question of life and death holds both great terror and great opportunity.

After hundreds of years of secluded cultivation, he broke through to the Marquis level.

Although immortality grants infinite lifespan, and his mind is focused on the art of potions, who would complain about their own strength?

"Haha, it's mainly because I have a good disciple! I've only been in seclusion for a short time."

The gene seed you're researching has already been updated to the fourth generation.

Yu Chen stroked his beard and laughed heartily.

What could be more joyful in life than this?

"That's because the teacher's instruction was excellent!"

Qin Mu also smiled and said.

"Forget it, you've already explained the production principle of the Seed of Genes to me. The first and second generations were fine, but by the third generation, I couldn't understand them anymore. And you've even researched the fourth generation!"

The selection of talents—what a magnificent achievement!

The entire human race prospers because of you, what more could I ask for?

Yu Chen waved his hand, Qin Mu's achievements in the art of potion making had long surpassed his own, and surpassed all the potion makers in human history.

"Tell me about the fourth generation of the Seed of Genes. Although I probably won't understand it, it's good to know something."

Qin Mu laughed and explained the principles behind it to his teacher.

Yu Chen listened, nodding occasionally and asking questions from time to time.

Although Yu Chen is already the top pharmacist among humans, the technology contained in the fourth-generation gene seed is still too advanced.

"Incredible! You've actually thoroughly researched all these hundreds of talents and broken them down into their most primitive patterns..."

Yu Chen sighed.

He didn't really want to thoroughly study the Seed of Genes in a short period of time, but rather to have a general understanding of it.

At least the underlying principles are clear.

After all, he is now the publicly acknowledged researcher of the Seed of Genes!

Many of his friends are big names in the field of pharmacists. If he knew nothing about the Seed of Genes, he would easily expose his weakness.

"Come on, explain this to me in more detail..."

……

Just as Qin Mu was teaching Teacher Yu Chen the principles of the Gene Seed, the fourth generation of the Gene Seed had already been quietly released.

The purpose of the fourth-generation gene seed is to allow martial artists whose bloodlines evolve to the cosmic level or above, giving them talent. And where is the place with the most people who can evolve their bloodlines to the cosmic level?

Of course, it's the battlefield outside our territory!

The oppression of the Zerg, Demon, and Machine race alliance did indeed cause great losses to the human race, but the Gene Seed battlefield also created a large number of powerful individuals.

The first battlefield, War Base 028.

A grand hall with elegant decor, containing tens of millions of seats, where hundreds of thousands of realm lords sat drinking and chatting.

"Haha, with the warriors of the Zerg, we don't need to worry about those Zerg and Mech cannon fodder anymore, it's so awesome!"

A powerful realm lord, clad in blood-red battle armor and sporting a scaly tail, laughed loudly.

"Ji Qing, of course you're thrilled! Your gene seed has evolved to its highest level, and after transforming into a humanoid star beast, even the demon race's royal family and realm lord are no match for you!"

Last time, while fighting alongside the Leviathan fleet, we slew more than ten demon realm lords!

His comrade next to him took a big gulp of strong liquor.

"Tong Kui, you're not bad either, just one step away from evolving to the highest level! You've also killed six demon realm lords!"

"The Realm Lord Ji Qing, clad in blood-red battle armor, laughed."

"Haha, it is said that someone saw Behemoth send out hundreds of Leviathans to the most intense battlefield at one time."

With Behemoth joining our human race, the pressure on this extraterrestrial battlefield has lessened considerably.

The group drank and chatted freely.

"What? The fourth generation of the gene seed has been released?"

Suddenly, a powerful Realm Lord in the hall stood up and opened the official website of the Virtual Universe with a look of surprise.

"The fourth generation of gene seed?"

Ji Qing and his teammates exchanged a glance and quickly entered the virtual universe.

The entire hall fell silent instantly.

Within the virtual universe, Ji Qing quickly opened the official website of the virtual universe, and sure enough, there was a line of large characters written on it.

The fourth generation of Gene Seed is now available!

"This fourth-generation gene seed wasn't advertised beforehand? I wonder what its effects will be?"

Filled with anticipation, Ji Qing quickly entered the purchase page.

"The fourth generation of gene seeds are divided into three types: cosmic level, domain lord level, and world lord level. Each type is used to activate the corresponding talent."

There are 128 types of talents at the Cosmic level, 64 types at the Domain Lord level, and 32 types at the World Lord level.

Selecting talents? There's such an incredible ability?

Ji Qing was dumbfounded.

The Seed of Genes has existed for hundreds of years, and everyone knows that it imitates the evolutionary path of the Starry Sky Beast.

Many people have speculated whether there is a fourth generation of gene seed, and if so, what effect it would have.

Activating the Starry Sky Beast talent—this has certainly been speculated upon by some.

After all, having evolved to the cosmic level and activated its combat stance, it is only lacking in talent compared to a true star behemoth, aside from the difference in size.

Even the most daring person wouldn't dare imagine that talent could be chosen as a commodity!

After realizing what had happened and carefully reading all the information, Ji Qing's face lit up with elation, and he immediately clicked on the purchase window.

Fourth Generation Gene Seed (Talent-Enhanced) 1 Chaos Origin. (Use condition: Gene Seed evolves to World Lord level)

Fourth Generation Gene Seed (Talent - Radiant Sun) 1 Mixed Origin. (Use Requirements: Gene Seed evolves to World Lord level, Fire attribute)

……

Fourth Generation Gene Seed (Talent - Spatial Binding) 1 Chaos Origin. (Use conditions: Gene Seed evolves to World Lord level, Spatial or lower-level Spatial attribute)

Fourth Generation Gene Seed (Talent - Time Flow Change) 1 Chaos. (Use conditions: Gene Seed evolves to World Lord level, Time or a lower-level Time attribute)

There are a total of 32 kinds!

Once the conditions are met, it can be activated and used!

"My God, there really are so many talents to choose from! Some have attribute restrictions, while others only require a spatial attribute or a lower-level spatial attribute!"

There are even enhancements that have absolutely no attribute restrictions.

Ji Qing was incredibly excited. His physical attribute was fire! He had a total of 20 options that met the requirements!

"Strengthening should be the talent of a peak bloodline star behemoth like the Golden Horned Beast, right?"

"That's incredible! It can actually double both physical and spiritual strength?"

Ji Qing clicked on the first option, which contained a detailed introduction to talent enhancement.

This kind of improvement is simple yet powerful!

Don't be fooled by the fact that it only doubles the performance; the actual improvement in combat is far more significant.

Moreover, talent enhancement has a very high priority and can be perfectly stacked with many amplitude-based arcane arts.

The first type immediately captivated Ji Qing.

Then, he clicked on the second option.

Talent – ​​Radiant Sun!

Enhancing fire attribute talent allows one to unleash five times their own power instantly.

However, the Radiant Sun talent is only effective for fire attributes and does not improve the soul.

But Ji Qing was still incredibly tempted, because as long as he chose this talent and improved his fire attribute talent, his chances of becoming an immortal with the fire attribute would greatly increase!

And it deals five times the damage!

"This is the talent of the Fiery Star Beast!"

His fighting style is an imitation of the Flame Star Beast, so how could he not be familiar with it?

This is also a talent that suits him extremely well!

Ji Qing didn't rush to choose. Instead, he read through all 32 talents, especially the 20 that met his criteria, which he studied carefully word by word.

"That spatial binding talent isn't a talent of the twelve peak-level bloodline star beasts; it seems to be a talent of the Time-Space Nightmare Beast?"

A series of thoughts flashed through Ji Qing's mind.

Although some of these talents are not from peak-bloodline star behemoths, they are still extremely powerful.

"Which one should I choose? All 20 talents are incredibly powerful; I want them all!"

Looking at each of these talents, Ji Qing was extremely conflicted.

He never imagined that one day he would be troubled by such a thing!

As for the price of a Hunyuan, he didn't care at all.

Generally, a Realm Lord's net worth is around ten Hunyuan. Someone like him, whose bloodline has evolved to the Realm Lord level by mingling in the outer battlefields, has wealth comparable to a poorer Immortal.

One Hunyuan can buy a talent!

This is so cheap!

If possible, he would be willing to spend 20 yuan to buy everything that suits him.

Unfortunately, his body couldn't handle it, so he had to choose one!

With a mix of hesitation and curiosity, Ji Qing switched the purchase page to the Domain Lord level and took a look.

There are even more types of Domain Lord level, a total of 64, which can only be used after evolving to the Domain Lord level bloodline.

Although the quantity was large, the effect was significantly worse.

The price, however, is only 10 billion cosmic coins.

This price isn't considered expensive for the domain owner.

A typical domain lord's net worth is around 100 billion cosmic coins.

The same applies to the cosmic level; one only needs to evolve their bloodline to the cosmic level, and the price is only 100 billion Qianwu coins!

"The pharmacist Yu Chen is amazing! This price is practically a welfare benefit."

Moreover, the fourth-generation gene seed can enhance physical talent to a certain extent.

too strong!

But which talent should I choose?

Ji Qing was once again caught in a dilemma.

Talent enhancement can instantly boost combat power.

The Radiant Talent enhances combat power and increases the chance of becoming an Immortal.

Spatial constraints can enhance spatial talents and greatly help in comprehending the mysteries of space, particularly spatial confinement!

"A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Choosing the radiant talent of the sun and becoming immortal is the most important thing."

After much deliberation and weighing the pros and cons, Ji Qing finally decided to choose the Radiant Sun Talent.

Having made his decision, Ji Qing immediately placed an order.

As an AAA-level divine base in the extraterritorial battlefield, the 028 War Base was stocked by the Virtual Universe Company, and the goods were delivered to Ji Qing not long after the order was placed.

Back in his training room, Ji Qing immediately used the Seed of Genes.

A warm power flowed through my body.

Contrary to his expectations, he did not feel any pain when using the fourth-generation gene seed; on the contrary, he felt extremely comfortable.

It was as if life had been completed.

Fiery red lines appeared on his body, constantly outlining and forming strange patterns.

The patterns on its body are extremely similar to those on the Flame Star Beast.

Then wings grew from his body, and his body continued to grow larger through collisions, naturally switching into battle form.

A five-kilometer-tall humanoid cosmic behemoth appeared.

And then keep growing!

This growth didn't stop until it reached a height of nine kilometers.

"My strength has increased a lot."

"The fluctuations in the fundamental laws of fire are at least twice as clear!"

Ji Qing clenched his fists, feeling the surging power throughout his body, and was extremely excited.

"This Hunyuan was definitely worth it."

After getting familiar with his new power, Ji Qing excitedly left the training room and headed to the hall where he usually drank and chatted with his comrades.

He couldn't wait to share his newfound power with his teammates.

boom!

Suddenly, a vast power descended, shining with golden light.

Ji Qing turned around and looked into a cultivation room.

"It's the fundamental law of metal; a realm lord has broken through to immortality!"

There was a hint of envy in his eyes; becoming immortal was the greatest wish of most realm lords.

boom!

Another immense power descended, turning the world a fiery red.

"The fundamental law of fire has descended! Heavens, another breakthrough has been achieved!"

As if in a chain reaction, one primordial law after another descended, and the entire 028 war base seemed to be immersed in various primordial laws.

"It is the fourth generation of gene seed! There are many world lord powerhouses in the extraterrestrial battlefield who are on the verge of breaking through, just one step away from success."

With the fourth-generation gene seed, their understanding of the laws became much clearer, allowing them to break through directly.

Ji Qing reacted instantly.

The entire 028 war base became incredibly frenzied, with world lords shouting excitedly.

Afterwards, it was estimated that on the day the fourth-generation gene seed drug was released, 136 out of hundreds of thousands of world lords in the 028 War Base broke through to immortality!

In the following ten days or so, the total number of Realm Lord level experts who broke through exceeded one thousand!

And this is just a base!

There are a total of one hundred AAA-level divine war bases like 028 in the first battlefield.

There are eleven battlefields outside the territory!

How many Heavenly Realm Lords have broken through to Immortality in the entire outer battlefield?

Conservative estimates put it at over 100,000!

In just one day, the human faction gained at least 100,000 more Immortals in the extraterrestrial battlefield!

After this wave of breakthroughs subsided, at least a million more Immortals appeared on the outer battlefield!

How terrifying!

And this is only the battlefield outside the region!

The human race also has 1008 advanced cosmic nations, as well as countless secret continents and divine kingdoms!

It's impossible to count how many people actually benefited and made breakthroughs as a result.

carnival!

A true carnival!

After four cumulative iterations, human potential was unleashed in the most direct form by the seed of genes.

This breakthrough did not only occur at the realm master level.

Countless people have also broken through to the Cosmic Level and Domain Lord Level, far exceeding the number of World Lord Level individuals.

The entire human race was thrown into a frenzy of celebration because of the release of the fourth generation of the gene seed.

No, it should be said to be the entire primordial universe!
