Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 386 The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds bestows a treasure

"Hahaha, so you must be Titan?"

"I am the fourth prince of the Nine Netherworld, here to greet you on my father's orders."

The handsome man at the head of the group saw figures emerging from the teleportation passage of the Divine Kingdom and immediately went to greet them, smiling at Qin Mu.

"Titan is here. Thank you for your personal welcome, Fourth Prince."

Qin Mu returned a polite smile. Along the way, through the Blood Dragon Venerable, he had gained some understanding of the many princes in the Nine Netherworld.

There was fierce competition among the 108 princes.

This fourth prince is the strongest among those who have already become Venerables.

"Brother Titan, you are too kind. My father has long admired your name."

They praised your feat of defeating millions of inheritors on Zijing Island, especially for opening the inheritance space, which allowed 3000 Venerables to appear among our special lives.

To meet you here is truly a blessing for me in the netherworld.

The fourth prince's words revealed sincerity and appreciation. He gestured, inviting Qin Mu and his party to follow him to the welcoming banquet that had been prepared.

"You flatter me, Fourth Prince. My winning streak is just luck."

Qin Mu answered modestly.

As the group moved slowly forward, Qin Mu saw many indigenous people living in the city buildings along the way. These indigenous people all had blood-red bodies and blood-red horns.

Some are like babies, no taller than knee-high, yet they run around on the ground.

Some, like children, have already begun fighting each other to see who is better.

Qin Mu glanced around and saw that almost everyone who was tall enough to be considered a native was a realm lord.

Seeing that Qin Mu's gaze was fixed on the blood-red bodies and blood-red curved horns of the natives around him, the Fourth Prince took the initiative to speak.

"This is a unique race in my Nine Netherworld. They were born from the ocean where our father, or we princes, were incarnations."

Born at the planetary level, reaching the realm lord level upon adulthood, they would be no weaker than those powerful races in the outside world!

The fourth prince spoke with a hint of pride.

"Nurtured from the Nine Netherworlds? Planetary level? Adult World Lord level? Truly powerful!"

Qin Mu smiled.

"This reminds me of a friend whose true form is also a vast ocean, capable of giving birth to some enormous beasts."

Unfortunately, the behemoth he conceived, though powerful, was unstable and could not live long, dying soon after.

Looking at the several indigenous babies running and playing not far away, he seemed to sigh with emotion.

"A friend? Its true form is also the ocean? And it can even give birth to enormous beasts?"

The fourth prince's eyes lit up, showing great curiosity about the friend Qin Mu had mentioned.

As the ruler of the Nine Nether Sea, he possesses the talent for creation.

Some of the natives in the city were born from the ocean that he had transformed into, and they are absolutely loyal to him.

But he knew very well that creating simple plants like flowers and grass was fine, but creating real life, especially powerful life, was extremely difficult.

His innate secret technique, "Creation," involves first understanding the life structure of other species.

Then, through innate secret techniques, this life structure is replicated to form a new life.

The most basic stage is replicating the components of other life forms.

The weaker the strength, the simpler the genetic composition of a life form. The stronger the life form, the more advanced its genetic composition, making it extremely difficult to even observe clearly, let alone replicate itself to form such a structure.

On this basis, if it becomes even stronger, it can give birth to real life.

Like the blood-red horn tribes in the Nine Netherworld, it was his father who spent countless efforts to finally create a very mature tribe.

A race capable of giving birth to life imprints, possessing wisdom, cultivating themselves, and easily reaching the level of a realm lord!

These princes merely inherited and imitated the tradition.

As for creating a new ethnic group?

That's too difficult.

Even the race created by his father was merely energy life form!

The composition of energy life is the simplest; all that is needed is to create a core. However, it is much more difficult for flesh and blood life.

"Your friend may have gone astray. Creating life is such a difficult thing."

Or it's a behemoth, a creature of flesh and blood.

Perhaps he could try creating energy-based life forms. I do have some experience in this area, and we could exchange ideas sometime.

The fourth prince said with some excitement upon hearing this.

"comminicate?"

"I don't understand how to create life, but I can easily let you communicate with it."

My friend is also in the inheritance space. I'll give you an inheritance bracelet later; you can talk to him after you enter.

Qin Mu smiled.

As for the friends he mentioned, they were naturally just using pseudonyms.

In the inheritance space, besides the inheritors of the Ancestral God Sect, he gradually put in some special life forms.

For example, special life forms obtained in the past, such as the Nether Serpent and the Phantom Whale, which are special units hatched from the swarm.

As the space for inheritance became increasingly rich, a vague plan formed in his mind.

If managed well, the problem that had troubled Qin Mu for a long time—how to rationally place Zerg units into other races—would be easily solved.

"The Inheritance Space? Is that the Inheritance Space that allows one to possess a Universe Venerable and break through to a higher realm?"

The fourth prince's eyes lit up.

Why did he compete with his many brothers for the opportunity to meet the Titan?

Isn't it all for entering the inheritance space?

In the Nine Netherworld, only those who reach the level of a Universe Venerable will be allowed by the Emperor to leave the treacherous realm.

Having spent billions of years in this space-time continuum, he had long wanted to go out and see the outside world.

"That's right! Within the inheritance space, there are tens of thousands of special life forms like us."

They are all very powerful; you can communicate with them once you go in.

Qin Mu smiled.

"Thank you, Titan! Now that we know each other, we are friends."

In the Nine Netherworlds, if you need anything, just ask.

The Fourth Prince's words were full of joy and anticipation. He hadn't expected Qin Mu to be so easy to talk to, giving him a spot in the inheritance space as soon as they met.

He naturally didn't know that while he was eager to obtain a spot in the inheritance space, Qin Mu was equally eager to obtain the genetic map of the Nine Nether Sea!

Inside the majestic ancient city, the group walked and chatted. The Fourth Prince was clearly in a very good mood, and he took the initiative to introduce various aspects of the city from time to time.

Gradually, Qin Mu gained some understanding of the city. Princes lived in the city, and various cosmic venerables also had their own residences in the city.

At Qin Mu's speed, they quickly arrived at the royal palace in the heart of the ancient city.

"Brother Titan, let me take you to meet Father Emperor first!"

The fourth prince reached out and led the way.

Upon arriving at the palace, everyone else, including the Blood Dragon Venerable, had to wait outside and could not proceed further. The Fourth Prince, on the other hand, personally took on the task of leading the way.

Clearly, he became friends with Titan in a very short time along the way.

Who wouldn't want to be friends with someone who helps them break through their limitations?

Having been suppressed for countless years in the Nine Netherworld, he was almost going crazy. Now that someone could help him improve quickly, he was naturally eager to help.

"I have long admired the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds."

Qin Mu's tone also became much more serious.

Respect for the strong is a basic courtesy.

Led by the fourth prince, the two passed through several palaces and finally arrived at an extremely magnificent palace.

The fourth prince's expression also turned serious.

"Father, the Titans have arrived."

Upon entering the palace, there was no one there, only a huge throne.

"Rumble~~~"

The fourth prince finished speaking.

An unparalleled aura suddenly descended upon the hall, and the powerful energy of the Nine Netherworld began to converge directly.

The power of the Nine Netherworld converged, and a majestic figure gradually formed on the throne.

"Titan, welcome to the Netherworld."

The imposing figure looked down at Qin Mu and the Fourth Prince below.

"Greetings, Lord of the Nine Netherworlds."

Qin Mu bowed respectfully.

"The Dark Lord taught a good disciple! He was able to defeat all the inheritors of the Ancestral God Cult at the third level while being a World Lord, and he also opened up the inheritance space, allowing many special beings to advance."

Perhaps my wayward children will need your guidance to break through their limitations.

After gazing at Qin Mu for a while, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds sighed.

The fourth prince, who was standing to the side, suddenly widened his eyes. This Titan was actually a realm lord?

With the body of a Realm Lord, how could he defeat all the Triple Inheritors of the Ancestral God Sect?

Could it even be capable of severing the arm of a Cosmic Venerable?

This is absolutely terrifying!

He was initially puzzled. This Titan was clearly a top-tier special life form, and its understanding of the laws was ridiculously high. Even the most top-tier special life forms, such as the Insect Chaser and the Blood Dragon Venerable, were not as good as the Titan when they were immortal.

However, when facing a weak cosmic venerable like Beishan, not only did they have to use a supreme treasure, but they also had to rely on a near-sneak attack to cut off one of his arms.

Furthermore, given his understanding of the laws that enabled him to defeat all triple inheritors, and his possession of a treasure like the inheritance space, how could he not have broken through to the Universe Venerable level yet?

Now he understands everything.

It turns out that Titan was just a realm lord!

Compared to this, Titan having a teacher of cosmic caliber behind him is nothing.

"Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, you flatter me. Please keep my identity and strength confidential."

Because of the matter of the inheritance space, I've already been targeted by many races in the universe. If I'm exposed...

That……"

Qin Mu looked at the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds on the throne with some difficulty.

"Don't worry! I will keep it a secret for you. Your disguise is very good. If the Bauhinia Island Master hadn't told me beforehand, I wouldn't have been able to see through it."

As he spoke, he looked at the Fourth Prince.

The fourth prince understood perfectly.

"Don't worry, Titan brother, I will absolutely keep your secret and won't tell anyone."

Qin Mu's expression finally relaxed a little.

"For a top genius like you to be released by the Lord of Darkness when you were only at the Realm Lord level, you are truly audacious."

However, you can travel freely in my Netherworld, and I will ensure your safety.

Even the ruler of the universe, or the strongest being in the universe, wouldn't dare to run wild in my Nine Netherworld.

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds spoke with a hint of arrogance.

"Thank you, Lord of the Nine Netherworlds."

Qin Mu expressed his gratitude.

He knew that the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds indeed possessed this power.

As a universe master on the same level as the Lord of Chaos City, his strength was top-notch outside the Nine Netherworld.

Especially in the Nine Netherworld, if anyone dares to step in, he will burn his divine power across a body spanning tens of light-years in a desperate act. Even the strongest beings in the universe would not dare to withstand him.

The divine body is enormous!

"You've already joined the outer circle of the Ancestral God Sect, but haven't chosen a Guardian God Lord yet, have you? Would you be interested in joining my Nine Netherworld lineage?"

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds asked the question casually.

"this?……"

Qin Mu pondered for a moment, then bowed respectfully.

"Greetings to the Lord Protector of the Faith."

When Qin Mu arrived at the Nine Netherworld, he had a premonition of this scene.

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds would not possibly let go of a top genius like himself and fail to win him over.

Among the dozen or so guardian deities, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is also among the top, and is a special life form, which fits his character.

He naturally had no reason to refuse.

Furthermore, the World Tree is also under Jiuyou's command, and he hasn't gone to collect it yet.

Not only the World Tree, but also more than a dozen others like the Cold Whale who are comparable to the World Tree throughout the entire Nine Netherworld.

He would visit them all one by one.

Becoming a member of the Nine Netherworld lineage made things much easier.

Seeing that Qin Mu agreed so readily, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds was quite pleased.

Immediately, a black token appeared out of thin air in his hand and fell from the sky, landing directly in front of Qin Mu.

Qin Mu reached out and took it; it was heavy and icy cold.

The Ancestral God Decree contained only two words: "Ancestral God".

The characters were composed of countless secret patterns. Qin Mu did not recognize them, but he immediately knew that they were the characters for "Ancestral God".

"Imprinted on your life, the Ancestral God's Decree can only be used by you."

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds looked down upon Qin Mu.

"Through this Ancestral God Token, one can contact the Ancestral God Cult. The Ancestral God Cult also issues missions through the Ancestral God Token."

Within this universe, communication can be established through the Ancestral God's Decree.

"Text communication only."

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds continued.

"The Ancestral God's Token is very special; do not lose it."

"clear."

Qin Mu nodded. It was quite impressive that text-based communication could cover the entire universe; clearly, the Ancestral God Token was not easy to create.

"If anyone from the Ancestral God Sect comes looking for you, just show them this Ancestral God Token, and they'll understand."

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds.

"Yes."

Qin Mu responded respectfully.

"Furthermore, this is a priceless treasure of the realm, which I am bestowing upon you."

As soon as he finished speaking, a precious pearl appeared in the hand of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds and floated in front of Qin Mu.

"A treasure of the realm? Thank you, Lord Protector of the Faith, for your gift."

Qin Mu's eyes lit up.

He possessed many treasures, but none of them were of the domain type; the Styx River was merely a valuable treasure.

"Go ahead, you young people can chat together."

If you need anything from me, just call me.
