Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 304 Purchasing Special Life

The vast majority of the hundreds of special life remains discovered in Yu Baotang have very low gene multiplication rates, mostly around 20 to 30 times.

There are very few creatures with 50 times the genetic potential, like the "Light-Eating Tiger". Most of them are just like the "Light-Eating Tiger" with only one or two bones, scales, feathers and the like.

Even so, some remnants would cost at least a million Hunyuan!

The remains of special life forms are extremely valuable, and are highly sought after whether used to refine treasures or to make potions.

The price of several of the well-preserved carcasses exceeded 100 billion Hunyuan!

For example, there is a special life form called the Shadow-Eyed Hunter Spider. As a special life form among spiders, it is born with the ability to spin silk and weave webs, and its talent is related to this.

This net is extremely tough; even a behemoth like the Golden Horned Beast could not tear it apart by brute force among creatures of the same level.

It also possesses a talent called Shadow Vision, which allows it to see through the shadows and conceal enemies, as well as the flow of energy, making it an extremely powerful reconnaissance talent.

For example, there is a special life form called the Azure Sea Black Turtle. Although its gene multiplier is only 60 times, its defense is extremely strong.

The Azure Sea Black Turtle is naturally adept at comprehending the laws of water, earth, and space.

It possesses two innate talents. One is the "Mysterious Tortoise Shell Defense," whose shell is incredibly hard and can automatically sense external attacks. When attacked, the shell quickly generates a powerful defensive field that weakens the enemy's attack by hundreds or thousands of times, thus protecting itself from harm.

This talent gives the Azure Sea Black Turtle extremely high defensive capabilities, enabling it to remain invincible when facing powerful enemies.

The second talent is "Azure Wave Reversal". When attacked, the Xuan Turtle can quickly mobilize the power of the surrounding water, earth, and space to form a powerful reverse current that reflects the enemy's attack back.

This counterattack not only weakens the enemy's attack power but also inflicts damage on the enemy with its own attack power, achieving the effect of turning defense into offense.

The two talents are of great use to Qin Mu in his research on the defense of his armor.

The corpses of these two special life forms are very intact, and the swarm can quickly analyze and hatch them.

Those that are severely damaged, with only some scales, feathers, or the like, will slowly begin to develop.

Of course, the Netherworld Poisonous Python is no match for the Shadow Spider, the Azure Sea Black Turtle, or the Tree of Life that the Chaos City Lord once gave him.

The Netherworld Poison Python has 200 times the genetic potential, and the Tree of Life has 300 times the genetic potential. Not only are their talents extremely powerful, but they are also living World Lord level beings!

In any aspect, it is incomparable to these special life forms.

A Realm Lord level being can be used for possession!

If it's put up for auction, it will definitely fetch an astronomical price!

The special life remains sold by Yu Baotang varied in strength during their lifetimes; some were realm lords, while others were immortals.

When one's strength reaches the level of immortality, the soul merges into the body, and the physical body becomes completely divine. In this state, it is impossible to possess another's body.

But it didn't affect Qin Mu much; he wanted it for research, not for possession.

After the email was sent, Teacher Chaos City Lord replied very quickly.

The response was simple: if it's confirmed to be useful for research, just buy it, and the community will reimburse you. If funds are insufficient, you can choose to have it deferred.

Yu Baotang is the property of the Dragon Lord; it's just a matter of making a small request.

"Haha, it worked!"

Qin Mu was secretly delighted; this was the advantage of being a researcher!

Obtaining research funding is a required course for every outstanding researcher.

This was something that Teacher Yu Chen had taught Qin Mu by example when he entered the pharmacist department of the Virtual Universe Company.

If it weren't for the need for research funding, why would a top-tier pharmacist join the Virtual Universe Company?

Qin Mu glanced at the remaining funds in his account; he had less than two trillion Chaos Units left.

Qin Mu spent most of the resources he had gained from hunting down thousands of kings.

The fact that they possessed two trillion Chaos Yuan was a spoil of war from the Zerg Hive fleet's battles with the alien races.

In the fierce war, more than seventy Hive Tyrants of the Zerg swarm have fallen, and the number of alien Kings who have died is likely to be even greater!

"That's enough. Let's buy the special life remains we need first, and then we can look at the others."

Qin Mu made up his mind, but did not rush to buy it.

Yu Baotang has many treasures. Let's see if there's anything we can use and buy it all to get reimbursed.

As long as you don't go too far, no one will hold it against you for this kind of thing.

With these thoughts in mind, Qin Mu slowly strolled around the first floor.

It must be said that there were many treasures in Yu Baotang, which made Qin Mu secretly amazed.

"A stellar weapon, capable of causing a star to explode instantly; even a peak-level King would perish if it hits!"

"The Frost Aurora is a mysterious light source collected from a secret realm in the universe. Once released, even an invincible king would be injured."

"An F-grade mechanical combat suit that requires no special strength from the wearer, granting the wearer power comparable to an immortal god?"

"Ink Gold, a strange metal named after its discoverer, has a strong destructive effect on immortal divine bodies. Weapons infused with Ink Gold can easily annihilate a Marquis-level divine body if they pierce it."

If weapons were made entirely of black gold, even a king would perish instantly!

"Um?"

Qin Mu's gaze was suddenly drawn to a strange golden battle armor that was about eight meters tall. Although it was a virtual creation of the virtual universe, the moment Qin Mu saw this strange golden battle armor, he immediately thought of 'soldier armor' and 'general armor'.

"This must be Luo Feng's opportunity in Hongmeng City!"

Qin Mu walked up to the blueprint, which contained detailed information.

This set of golden armor was captured during a large-scale inter-clan war in the ancient era of the extraterrestrial battlefield. Its original owner was a powerful and unparalleled King-level expert of the Flame God Clan, who had killed dozens of King-level opponents... Later, he was killed by a Universe Venerable in a large-scale war!

The powerful Yan God Clan King was annihilated by the Universe Venerable. He was reduced to ashes and died. However, the golden armor he wore was completely undamaged, which surprised people and made them think it was a powerful and mysterious treasure.

"As expected of King Jia!"

This set of royal armor was deliberately placed in Hongmeng City by the Lord of Dragons as bait.

If it is a powerful member of the Yan God Clan, or Luo Feng after cultivating the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, as long as he refines it, he can possess the power of a World Lord ten thousand times!

Even if a human achieves the highest level of immortality and divine body, their power is only about 10 times that of a realm lord.

Wang Jia's extraordinary abilities are evident from this.

Physical attacks with less than 100,000 times the power of a World Lord will be completely blocked by the King Armor, and soul attacks with less than the peak of the King-Sealing Realm will also be completely blocked by the King Armor. Even attacks with more than 100,000 times the power of a World Lord... will be weakened by more than 90%.

It's a top-tier treasure, but that's about all it's capable of.

The strongest among humans had long ago captured the golden armor and attempted to research and create it, but unfortunately, they had never succeeded.

Moreover, the captured golden-armored human warriors were completely unusable.

It cannot be refined, therefore its size cannot be changed, and it cannot be integrated into the body!

Furthermore, it is completely solidified, making movement difficult when wearing it.

Add to that an extremely high price tag—50 billion mixed units.

Some people didn't believe in superstition, but unfortunately, they all perished.

It can also be sold at Yu Bao Tang, which means that the Lord of Dragons is fishing behind the scenes to see if anyone can use it.

"Sigh, I'm still missing a defensive treasure."

Looking at the description of the golden armor, Qin Mu thought to himself.

He attacked with the Star Spear, a supreme treasure that could easily pierce through most heavy weapons.

To escape, there is the Xuanbing Palace, a flying palace and a treasure for the gods.

The wearable armor-type treasures were merely selected from the treasure vault of the Virtual Universe Company, one that was suitable for a powerful king.

Qin Mu glanced at the golden armor and then ignored it.

The golden armor was nice, but it didn't suit him.

"Once we buy the Azure Sea Black Turtle's corpse, the hatched Azure Sea Black Turtle will have decent defensive capabilities for now."

Qin Mu then thought to himself.

When it comes to defense, what treasure can compare to the unique life form of turtles?

It may not sound good to outsiders, but as long as it works well, that's all that matters!

In particular, after studying it myself, I can modify and enhance it!

Special life forms find it relatively easy to fuse with treasures like Blood Crystals. As long as ten crystals can be fused, the gene multiplier can be increased tenfold!

With the Netherworld Poisonous Python for attack and the Azure Sea Black Tortoise for defense, the standard methods are all in place.

While Qin Mu was strolling around, Tian Cang King and several powerful kings were also looking at various treasures in the Yu Bao Hall, so they weren't bored.

After browsing around and looking at all the treasures that interested him, and finding nothing else of particular interest, he reached out to call a waiter.

"What would you like to buy, sir?" a waiter asked as he approached.

Qin Mu didn't waste any words and directly pulled out a list.

"I'll take everything that's checked off here!"
