Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 313 Advanced Bio-equipment and the Prerequisites for Breaking Through to Immortality

The first battlefield is inside Behemoth's body.

Qin Mu watched as the latest batch of Leviathans, hatched from their hatching, headed off to various battlefields.

The King of Annihilation, carrying a great treasure, followed one of them to the Seventh Battlefield.

The seventh battlefield was formed because some of the powerful kings who had been granted titles of kingship had left the Star Tower area and entered the regular battlefield.

This also resulted in exceptionally high pressure on the seventh battlefield.

After all the Leviathans left, Qin Mu looked at a humanoid creature in the flesh chamber that was a hundred miles tall and was still growing.

This is the Hive Guardian that has undergone evolution and mutation in the Seventh Battlefield.

It is the second-stage product of a perfect divine body, which integrates his own genes, the genes of twelve peak bloodline star beasts, and the genes of the special life form Netherworld Poison Python.

At first, it was only slightly larger than the Hive Tyrant.

But once the genes begin to fuse perfectly, their size starts to increase dramatically.

Qin Mu was not surprised by this situation.

The second-generation Perfect God Body was developed based on the first-generation Hive Tyrant.

In order to ensure that the Blood Crystal could be used to its fullest potential, the first-generation Zergling Tyrant Qin Mu deliberately limited his size to ten kilometers.

The current Hive Tyrant has reached its limit in terms of gene multiplication through various amplitudes.

In addition to the arcane amplification and the [Netherworld Serpent Venom], there's no shortage of offensive power.

The only problem is that the defense is too weak.

Once the defensive weaknesses are addressed, the base stats will be comparable to those of a high-level King.

Combined with their powerful understanding of the laws, they can even fight against peak-level Kings.

The key to addressing the defensive weaknesses lies in the special life form, the Azure Sea Black Tortoise.

This is the most defensively capable special life form he possesses.

Of course, besides using a hybrid body armor, there is another way.

That means Qin Mu will break through to the Immortal realm. If he can break through to the Immortal realm, the strength of the insect swarm will increase by more than a hundred times in an instant!

When a Realm Lord breaks through to Immortality, they can usually possess at least a hundred times the power of a peak Realm Lord.

With Qin Mu's foundation, once he breaks through, he will at least be invincible as a king, or even rival a cosmic venerable.

In addition, with the support of the supreme treasure and the suppression of spacetime by the Tree of Life, even ordinary cosmic venerables are no match for him.

The same goes for the Hive Tyrants. With 6000 times the genetic power, once they become immortal, each one can rival an invincible king.

However, when Qin Mu broke through to the Realm Lord level, he was already a 6000-gene life form with an extremely vast inner world.

When he first broke through to the Realm Lord level, his inner world had already reached 30 million kilometers.

As his strength gradually increased, he reached the fourth level of the Realm Lord, which brought him to a distance of 100 million kilometers.

After reaching its peak, its internal world became even larger, reaching a billion kilometers.

The larger the internal world, the more robust the pronucleus.

In particular, Qin Mu transplanted the Tree of Life into his inner world, using its properties to make his inner world more stable.

This causes the pronucleus to become extremely robust.

Even though Qin Mu has now grasped all the mysteries of space and time, he still doesn't feel like he's made a breakthrough.

To break free from the shackles and achieve immortality, all external treasures and the like are useless.

Only by elevating one's understanding of laws, secret techniques, mental power, and willpower to the highest level below the level of a Cosmic Venerable can one have the possibility of breaking through.

The stronger one's foundation during the Realm Lord period, the more difficult it is to break through!

The Chaos City Lord had told him this before.

The primordial universe is fair; the more extraordinary one's performance at the special stage of becoming a realm master, the more difficult it becomes to break through to the next level.

For example, Luo Feng reached the pinnacle in all aspects, then comprehended the first three forms of his ultimate technique, "The Myriad Stars Preaching Diagram," and after wandering the universe for 50,000 years, his mind underwent a transformation before he achieved a breakthrough.

"With the aid of the insect swarm and my understanding of the laws, I have mastered the three great mysteries of time and space."

Both the soul amplitude and the body amplitude reached 60, which is the level of many cosmic overlords.

In terms of willpower, it is comparable to that of a cosmic overlord.

"Only in terms of secret techniques and ultimate skills, I still have a long way to go."

Qin Mu murmured.

He has no shortage of combat experience and life-or-death battles.

Although his true form resides within Behemoth's body, he rarely ventures out.

Within the Zerg swarm, every unit is a part of him; the combat experience of Zerg units like the Hive Tyrant and Hive Wardens is his combat experience. The insights gained from life-or-death battles are his insights.

However, these combat experiences and insights have not yet been formed into a systematic secret technique!

"I am different from Luo Feng; I don't need to wander outside or go through trials."

I've been wandering, experiencing life's trials!

There was a light in Qin Mu's eyes.

Zerg units in the extraterritorial battlefield are only a part of the Zerg swarm.

Unbeknownst to anyone, his swarm of insects continued to spread in the shadows.

The insect swarm can be found in human territories, demon territories, insectoid territories, machine territories, and even more distant places.

What the swarm sees is what he sees.

The experience was meaningless to him.

It is precisely because I have seen and known so much.

That's why he'll study the seed of genes and research on bioengineering!

He not only saw it, he also wanted to change it!

"Only by creating your own secret method and forging your own path can you achieve a breakthrough."

I have already learned all the secret techniques my teacher gave me, and I have also mastered the first three levels of "Nine Revolutions of the Star River".

I've accumulated enough experience, albeit barely.

It's time to try and forge your own path.

Creating secret methods is actually a process of integrating one's own understanding of laws, spiritual insights, and life experiences.

That's why he said that the secret method he created was the most suitable for him.

Secret techniques and methods also have different levels.

The levels of ultimate skills are divided into several levels: unranked, ordinary, top-level, peak, ultimate, and strongest.

Unorthodox or common: These are generally secret techniques created by geniuses who are realm lords or immortals who have been granted titles.

Top-tier: These are generally secret techniques created by world lords, peerless geniuses, and immortal kings.

Peak: Only those who are invincible and have reached the highest level can create this! Most cosmic venerables can only create secret techniques at this level.

Ultimate: It is generally only created by top-tier cosmic venerables or cosmic overlords. It is not difficult for cosmic masters. As long as enough time is spent, they can reach it.

As for the strongest?

That is the ultimate limit, something even ordinary cosmic rulers wouldn't dare to dream of.

"With my current level of expertise, to break through, I would need to create at least the ultimate level of secret techniques."

That will take a long time.

"As expected, researching bio-engineered equipment is much more reliable than any of these!"

Qin Mu said silently.

After considering everything, Qin Mu decisively focused his attention on the implant.

In his vision, the life structure diagram of the Azure Sea Black Turtle appeared, and the complex innate patterns on the turtle shell were decomposed.

With Qin Mu's expertise in bloodline genes, he absorbed and understood everything he saw at an extremely fast pace.

After fully understanding it, he began to adjust the genetic structure of the Azure Sea Black Tortoise.

Add the transformation talent of the Iceberg Behemoth to its genes.

After the Transformation talent was inscribed, Qin Mu manipulated the prototype that had transformed into a suit of armor, reserving external interfaces for each one.

"The main body is already complete; this step is the simplest."

The next step is to increase its gene count, integrate it into the Hive Tyrant, and incorporate it into the evolution module.

Qin Mu's expression remained unchanged.

Even with its powerful defenses, a special life form with 60 times the genetic strength still struggles against attacks during the King-level stage.

He's already capable of enhancing human genes, so enhancing the Azure Sea Black Turtle's genes, even breaking through the hundredfold limit, is a piece of cake for him.

Time passed by, bit by bit.

One day, one month, half a year...

The most primitive outline of the armor gradually took shape in Qin Mu's hands.
