Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 342 'Physical Examination' for Top Human Powerhouses

"upgrade?"

The Lord of Chaos City didn't react for a moment, then stared at Qin Mu with wide eyes.

The gene multiplier of the Zergling Tyrant is already terrifyingly high; could it possibly increase even further?

"There has been some progress, but it's not particularly stable yet."

Qin Mu smiled.

"The first generation of Hive Tyrants actually did not have a high gene multiplication rate, only a hundred times the gene multiplication rate."

It mainly relies on the blessing of Blood Crystal.

On the battlefield outside the territory, the second-generation Hive Tyrant, which I call the Hive Guardian.

After hundreds of years of battles and evolution, the originally unstable genes have become more stable.

The gene multiplication rate reached a maximum of approximately 2000 times.

Although some problems still exist, I believe that with some further debugging, it will be usable, albeit barely.

The Lord of Chaos City stared wide-eyed, his expression filled with disbelief.

Although it was known that Qin Mu's insectoid race was a special life form that could break through the limitation of a hundredfold genetic coefficient.

But he never expected it to reach 2000 times!

2000 times the genetic potential!

This is about the level of an average universe ruler.

In the entire primordial universe, there were very few special life forms that could reach 500 times the genetic diversity.

Those exceeding 1000 times are extremely rare, and their numbers are extremely scarce in the entire primordial universe.

This level of special life form, with its extremely high gene multiplier, can suppress even the most powerful beings in the universe with its immortality!

The Lord of Chaos City had obvious joy on his face.

He was naturally aware of the Hive Tyrant and the Hive Guardians.

Over the past few hundred years in the extraterritorial battlefield, Qin Mu has released approximately ten thousand Insect Nest Tyrants.

The number of Hive Guardians, however, has reached nearly a million!

It is precisely because of these fearless, high-level Zerg units that the human race has been able to single-handedly contend with the three major races in the extraterrestrial battlefield.

But if what Qin Mu said is true, wouldn't that mean there are millions of insectoids, special life forms with a gene multiplication rate of 2000 times?

What an outrageous number this is!

Some clans with stronger bloodlines may only have this many people left.

"Teacher, it's not as exaggerated as you think. Not all hive guards have 2000 times the gene count."

Qin Mu explained.

The Lord of Chaos City was relieved. He thought to himself, "How could there be millions of Zerg with such a high gene multiplication rate?"

"After hundreds of years of fighting, evolution, and adjustments on battlefields outside the region."

There are currently about a hundred species of Hive Guardians active on the battlefield.

There are twelve main strains.

Only one gene has a 2000-fold increase in number, and there are around 50,000 of them.

The gene fold increase for other strains is between 1600 and 1900 times.

Qin Mu smiled.

The Lord of Chaos City fell silent immediately; so that's how it was explained.

With such a high gene ratio, Qin Mu actually managed to create hundreds of strains?

Even the lowest-ranking ones have 1600 times the genetic potential!

"If the method you mentioned for breaking through the genetic limits by a hundredfold can be achieved, can our human race also reach that level?"

The Lord of Chaos City raised his head, his eyes filled with expectation as he looked at Qin Mu.

He knew that Qin Mu had an extremely high talent in genetics.

I thought that even if we could reach that level, it would take a long time.

Qin Mu himself once said that it would take a thousand years, ten thousand years.

But how long has it been?

"Can!"

Qin Mu answered without hesitation.

"Theoretically speaking, there is no problem, as long as a portion of their genes are replaced with those of special life forms, breaking through the genetic limit of a hundred times that of the original universe."

Then you can keep improving.

That's what I'm doing.

The Lord of Chaos City nodded, suppressing his inner excitement.

"The second-generation Hive Tyrant is not perfect yet; at least it did not reach the 3000-fold increase in genetics that I expected."

"But as long as we continue to evolve and fine-tune, reaching 3000 times is still possible."

"While improving the second-generation Hive Tyrant, I am also preparing for the third generation."

For the third generation, I expect it to have at least 6000 times the genetic diversity.

Therefore, I need some high-end materials; what I have is far from enough.

And the Ancestral God Cult is the best place.

Qin Mu said.

"6000 times the genetic potential?"

The Lord of Chaos City took a deep breath. Beings with such a high gene multiplication rate are almost unique in the entire primordial universe.

While some could be seen in the early universe, they are now extremely rare.

Even a powerful tree like the World Tree only has a gene multiplication factor of about a thousand times.

As long as it matches Qin Mu's style, we can do wholesale!

If all, if only the top experts in the human race could reach this level, the top combat power of the human race would increase by at least ten times, or even a hundred times.

Given enough time, dominating the primordial universe is inevitable.

But as if he had thought of something, the Lord of Chaos City frowned.

No matter how strong Qin Mu's gene research capabilities are, he still needs a sufficient number of excellent samples.

"In that case, you probably won't need the special life forms I prepared for you."

The most powerful one among them only has 1000 times the genetic potential!

I will mobilize the cosmic masters within my race to find a way to capture those special life forms with even higher genetic diversity!

A ruthless glint appeared on the face of the Chaos City Lord.

Such special life forms, especially those with a gene multiplication factor exceeding a thousandfold, are extremely rare.

The entire human race is not large.

But when it comes to the future of the community, there's not much to say.

"Teacher, why can't we use it?"

Seeing the appearance of the Chaos City Lord, Qin Mu quickly said.

"Having original materials with a thousand times the genetic diversity is already quite good."

"In my past research materials, the highest gene fold was only two or three hundred times."

"Every special life form, and even every ordinary race, has its advantages, and my research is about integrating these advantages."

"Otherwise, how could a Hive Guard with 2000 times the genetic potential be born from the swarm?"

"Of course, if we could have special life materials with a gene density of over a thousand times, that would be the best."

The Lord of Chaos City nodded in agreement. Qin Mu was right; he had been too concerned.

I was so excited for a moment.

As the two were talking, the surrounding space suddenly rippled.

A giant man with disheveled long hair, resembling a wild man, appeared beside the Lord of Chaos City, staring intently at Qin Mu.

"You've already managed to increase the gene multiplier by 2000 times?"

Does a higher gene count mean easier research progress?

Are there any skill requirements?

Is it limited to the Realm Lord level, or below?

"The founder of the giant axe asked."

"The Founder of the Giant Axe!"

Qin Mu quickly stood up and said respectfully.

After driving away the Zerg Queen, the Giant Axe Founder left.

Qin Mu was surprised by their sudden appearance, but he also felt it was normal.

"No need for formalities. Given your importance to the human race, you need not bow to anyone."

The founder of the giant axe lifted Qin Mu up.

"Yes! The better the materials, the better the results will be."

There are no requirements regarding strength; those at the World Lord level are best, as their flesh and blood have not yet been energized, making them the easiest to study.

It doesn't matter if it transforms into a divine body.

It's just a bit troublesome and slower.

Within the Nirvana Temple, some immortals possess unique life forms, which I have also studied.

Qin Mu looked at the creator of the giant axe and explained.

"That would make things much easier."

You can go to the Ancestral Temple, but you must be careful and not let your soul become a slave, even in death!

I think you know how important you are to your community.

I can't enter the Ancestral Temple.

However, there are also inheritors of my human race in the Ancestral Temple.

I will grant you the power to invoke them, including the Universal Venerables.

When necessary, you can call them to perform tasks.

Even if it's a mission with a death sentence!

A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of the founder of the giant axe.

Special life forms with extremely high gene multiplication rates at the World Lord level are hard to find, but those with stronger abilities, such as Immortals and Universe Venerables, are quite numerous.

If you spend some time, you're bound to catch one or two.

"Founder of the Giant Axe, teacher, there's really no need to go to such lengths."

Seeing the murderous intent in their eyes, Qin Mu couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache.

As expected, none of those who can become masters of the universe are kind-hearted.

The Chaos City Lord was alright, but the Giant Axe Founder's eyes were practically overflowing with killing intent.

"Among my human race, there must be quite a few beings who have possessed top-tier special life forms, right?"

In fact, research alone will not cause them any harm.

"I have an idea. Could we invite them to come to Chaos Void?"

I can give them a small 'physical examination'.

A hint of excitement flashed in Qin Mu's eyes.

He had this idea when the descendants of the cosmic lords entered the Nirvana Temple, which is the Mother Nest.

Some immortal beings can possess special lives.

What about the Supreme Being of the Universe?

What about the cosmic overlord?

For example, the Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace!

As one of the three top cosmic overlords among the human race, his gene count is estimated to be eight or nine thousand times higher.

The Lord of the Universe can't study it, but the Overlord of the Universe can still give it a try.

There's no real loss if we fail, right?

In the Giant Axe Arena, there are also top-tier cosmic overlords like the Ancestral Tree Venerable!

Even if we can't study it, there are still so many cosmic venerables!

Coincidentally, he was also preparing to conduct research on the divine body at the Cosmic Venerable stage.

"The founder of the giant axe, the teacher."

If possible, we can first arrange for one or two people who possess top-tier special life clones, or who have possessed top-tier special life forms.

For the first batch, their strength should ideally not exceed that of a Universe Venerable.

Qin Mu's eyes shone brightly.

He didn't mention cosmic overlords from the beginning.

You have to eat one bite at a time, and walk one step at a time.

As long as the plan goes through, they can be sent to the mother nest one by one.
