Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 323 The Chaos City Lord's Worries

"Had an epiphany?"

The Lord of Chaos City looked at Qin Mu as he opened his eyes, a smile on his face.

"Yes, my understanding of the profound mysteries of the laws has deepened, and I have also made some gains in my divine body."

Qin Mu nodded.

"When a King breaks through to the Universe Venerable, his divine body undergoes a qualitative change, and its limit will reach a hundred times that of before. I have recorded the process of this transformation."

This has been very helpful in my research on the divine body of the Cosmic Venerable at this stage.

The advancement of the divine body in the immortal stage is progressing rapidly and is basically complete.

Next, he also needs to make some preparations for the next stage, namely the research on the divine body of the Cosmic Venerable.

"It's good that you've gained something."

The Lord of Chaos City said with satisfaction.

"True Yan King, no, I should say True Yan Venerable."

During his divine transformation, I discovered a problem, a problem I hadn't considered before.

Qin Mu's expression turned somewhat strange.

"What's the problem?"

The Lord of Chaos City frowned slightly. Could it be that there was a problem with the modification of the divine body?

"A normal human breaks through from being a King to becoming a Universe Venerable, increasing their strength a hundredfold."

That is, from 1000 times the power of a realm master to 10 million times the power of a realm master.

Under normal circumstances, humans are small in size and have less stored divine power.

When the ocean of laws descends upon you during the breakthrough, you should be able to absorb 100% of it.

However, Venerable Zhenyan has an extremely strong will, so his divine body has already enhanced it to the limit I can achieve, which is a hundred times the gene, the Thousand-Mile Divine Body.

In terms of divine body, it is already completely comparable to creatures like star behemoths.

Therefore, after the breakthrough, his divine body only absorbed about 50%, and the remainder will likely require a long time.

Qin Mu sighed.

The issue of replenishing the divine bodies of immortal gods is indeed a difficult problem.

The resources he consumed to capture the King of Annihilation and awaken him from his slumber amounted to a staggering 2250 billion Chaos Units.

The recovery phase also cost 1280 billion mixed units.

This caused him great distress, but he had no good solutions.

If this is the case at the Immortal stage, then it goes without saying that it is even more so at the Cosmic Sovereign stage.

With a full 50% gap in divine power, to reach the perfect 100% divine power, the treasures required would be tens of thousands of times, or even more, than those of an immortal god. They would be far more expensive than a single precious treasure, and even a cosmic venerable would not be able to gather enough even if they sold everything they owned.

"Hmm? That's normal! The larger the body size, the more difficult it is to store divine power at 100%."

The Lord of Chaos City was taken aback. He had thought it was some kind of problem, but it turned out to be this.

A body that is thousands of miles long is fine, like the World Tree, which is that big.

If one were to step into the realm of "Cosmic Venerable," the brief period during which the primordial laws descend might allow for the absorption of divine power, perhaps more than that of the True King. However, relative to the size of the World Tree, it would be a drop in the ocean.

It will take a long time to gradually accumulate divine power to improve.

"That won't do. Even ten thousand years wouldn't be enough to absorb the divine power gap in Zhenyan."

Not only Zhenyan, but all those who break through to the level of Universe Venerable will face the same dilemma.

He had already gone bankrupt trying to give True Evolution Venerable a hundredfold boost to his genes and a Thousand-Mile Divine Body.

If he's allowed to slowly absorb divine power, who knows when he'll be able to pay off the remaining debts.

Qin Mu shook his head and sighed.

Having broken through from the True Derivation King Invincible to the Universe Venerable, and possessing such a large divine body and a hundredfold increase in genes, let alone a primary Venerable, even a secondary Venerable might not be his match.

With this kind of ability, it would be a waste not to hurry up and go on adventures in the secret realms of the universe to make money.

"Um?"

The Lord of Chaos City was initially moved that Qin Mu was so considerate of his clan.

But the more I listened, the more something seemed off.

Qin Mu's reason for having Zhen Yan quickly absorb the divine body was to earn money and repay his debts.

"What Zhenyan owes is the wealth of the clan; your share will be given to you by the clan first."

The Lord of Chaos City stroked his face with his hand and sighed.

How could we possibly let Zhenyan go on an adventure in a secret realm as soon as he breaks through?

Before Zhenyan broke through, he was already invincible as a king.

Now, with a hundredfold increase in genes and a divine body that can travel a thousand miles, its potential among the human race's venerable ones is also extremely high.

Before embarking on any adventure, one should first solidify one's strength.

Qin Mu and the higher-ups of the human race had reached an agreement regarding the ascension of the human race's immortal divine bodies.

Qin Mu provided the technology to enhance the genetic multiplier and divine body of many immortals.

The tribe is responsible for providing the resources needed for the transformation, as well as everything else.

Most of the harvested resources belonged to Qin Mu personally, while the remainder went to the clan.

"Give me the tribe first? That's fine too."

Qin Mu was initially delighted, but then became somewhat disappointed.

"I was originally thinking that all the powerful humans in the future would owe me money."

The Lord of Chaos City couldn't help but chuckle at Qin Mu's perverse sense of humor.

"Haha, your strength is still too weak to be revealed publicly."

But once your strength increases, they will eventually find out about the gene multiplier and how your divine body was enhanced with your help.

They don't owe you money, but they do you a favor!

This is much more important than money.

"This is what the Lord of Chaos City said."

"That's true!"

Qin Mu smiled.

This has been a tradition among pharmacists.

Which top pharmacist doesn't have an extensive network of contacts?

When Qin Mu first became a disciple of Master Yu Chen, Master Yu Chen even held a special banquet to welcome him as a disciple, all to pave the way for Qin Mu's future.

However, Qin Mu's strength improved too quickly, so he didn't get to use it.

"Whatever resources you need, you can draw them from the tribe without any hesitation."

As he spoke, the Lord of Chaos City said solemnly.

He had long ago granted Qin Mu extremely high authority, allowing him to freely draw treasures from the human race's treasury.

However, Qin Mu rarely used this power except when needed for experiments.

For example, when he was in Hongmeng City, he only bought some special life remains. If he wanted to choose a few important treasures for himself, the clan would pay for them.

No one has any objections as long as it benefits Qin Mu's strength.

In fact, he was already gathering a second batch of special life forms with very high gene multiplication rates and strong talents for Qin Mu.

Researching implantation techniques and methods to break gene limits by a hundredfold, how can the Tree of Life possibly succeed if it relies solely on a Netherworld Poisonous Python?

As for the special life forms in Hongmeng City, they are simply not worthy of mention.

It can be considered an extra at most.

This is not something he did alone; it was something that the entire human race's leadership was doing.

No one objected.

He had been to the Chaos Void, seen the Mother Nest, and witnessed the immortality of the divine body whose genes had been enhanced by Qin Mu.

All the lords of the universe no longer doubted whether Qin Mu could break through the genetic limit by a hundredfold.

The remaining issue is gathering research materials.

Meanwhile, the Lord of Chaos City is also preparing defensive treasures for Qin Mu, such as the Supreme Armor.

For offense, there's the Star Spear; for soul defense, there's the Soul-Stabilizing Bell; and for flight, there's the Xuanbing Palace's treasure.

The only weakness is the lack of material defense. If Qin Mu wants to break through to immortality, it will probably be quite difficult. He might have to travel around or something, which is something he has to consider.

He wouldn't do that with other disciples, but not with Qin Mu.

If they really go to gain experience, the founder of the Giant Axe will most likely follow them in secret.

There's no other reason than that Qin Mu is simply too important to the clan.

Compared to these, what are some ordinary resources?

"That's different."

Qin Mu shook his head. The insect swarm's thirst for resources was inexhaustible; it could consume any amount of resources.

He can take advantage of others, but he can't actually use all the resources of his clan to cultivate the swarm.

The period of being a World Lord is fine, but if one reaches the Immortal stage or the Universe Venerable stage, the entire human race will be devoured.

But if it's wealth you earned yourself, that's a different story.

Therefore, it's important to distinguish between certain things.

"Whatever you say."

The Lord of Chaos City didn't care; these issues were insignificant.

"I'll try to figure out a way to quickly absorb divine power, but I don't think it will have much effect in the short term."

Qin Mu didn't hesitate and simply said something.

He had thought about this problem before, but unfortunately he didn't have a good solution.

This is also one of the reasons for studying the nature of divine power.

"Well, you decide that."

However, your priority right now should be to raise your strength to the Immortal level. You can pursue these researches later once you've reached that level.

The Lord of Chaos reminded him.

"I understand, preparations are already underway."

Over the years, I have been reading various esoteric methods and have gained some insights.

The more I looked, the more I felt my own inadequacy.

"Let's wait a few more years, until I gain some insight and create my own secret technique."

Qin Mu said.

"With your current level of expertise, it will be very difficult to make a breakthrough by simply observing secret techniques and working in isolation."

You've devoted most of your energy to various research projects over the years, which has benefited the entire community.

But your abilities are equally important.

Real combat, training, and even life-or-death battles are also an important part of it.

You understand the principle behind your discovery of the seed of genes.

After a long silence, the Lord of Chaos City spoke.

Qin Mu's talent is unparalleled.

Even his teacher couldn't compare.

If the human race simply wants to achieve immortality, there are ways to achieve it.

Even a pig can become immortal if given enough resources.

But such immortality has no future.

"Disciple understands. After I create the secret technique, I may go to the Star Tower area of ​​the outer battlefield to verify my ideas."

Qin Mu also fell silent.

He was somewhat moved by the words of the Chaos City Lord.

He doesn't reveal everything without reservation.

For example, his clone, Chaos City Lord, only thought that the Tyrant was his clone.

As for other units, such as the Hive Tyrant, Leviathan, etc., all the high-ranking humans, including the Chaos Lord, believed that they were merely products of genetic and bloodline technology.

Similar to the relationship between the Zerg Queen and the Zerg Warriors.

The tyrant, after entering the first battlefield, only participated in the initial battle and then remained silent.

This worried even the Lord of Chaos City, as Qin Mu had focused all his attention on research and neglected his cultivation.

In reality, the entire swarm of insects is his clone!

He was constantly traveling and fighting for his life.

The problem that the Chaos City Lord was worried about never existed in the first place.

But Qin Mu will never tell anyone this secret.

This is his biggest trump card.

"Zhenyan can leave now. In three years, he has improved to the limit in all aspects, and now that he has broken through, there is no need for him to stay here any longer."

The next batch of immortals should be arriving soon.

After this group finishes their training, I will focus most of my energy on improving my own strength.

Qin Mu didn't explain, he just smiled.

"good!"
