Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 535 The Chaos City Lord's Extraordinary Encounter

Qin Mu remembered that the Temple of the Divine God appeared in the original timeline around 600 years after the opening of the Primordial Star, when the origin of the universe suddenly descended on a certain Primordial Star.

Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, time, and space—all the fundamental laws descended upon this primordial star simultaneously.

A temple with overwhelming power was born, which seemed to shackle the entire planet, even suppressing the cosmic overlord.

And this is the Temple of the Divine God!

The emergence of the Temple of the Divine Origin lasted for over a hundred years, and the enormous commotion alarmed all the powers in the universe, prompting them to send a large number of powerful individuals.

After its birth, a black stone tablet stood in front of the Temple of the Divine God. Ancient secret patterns were left on the stone tablet, and any powerful person could know its information at a glance.

The message is very simple—

When the Temple of the Divine God is born, the stone tablet will appear. After the stone tablet is destroyed, one or more Divine Mirror Stones will appear randomly at a certain time and place on 10081 primordial stars!

There are a total of 36 Qijing Stones... Qijing Stones look like normal stones, but when they are born, the commotion is comparable to that of a high-grade treasure. When all 36 Qijing Stones are born, the Qijing Temple will open.

Only those who possess the Mirror Stone may enter; any other powerful individuals who trespass will be annihilated.

For others, obtaining a single Mirror Stone might be very difficult; in fact, the entire human race might not be able to acquire even one.

However, for the swarms of insects scattered across all the original planets, it is almost certain that they will be able to obtain it.

Obtaining a single Mirror Stone would mean that the treasure, second only to the most powerful treasure, belongs to the insect swarm.

Although only those who possess the Mirror Stone can enter, the swarm is a unified whole.

It's entirely possible to directly send in thousands, or even more, of the Zerg hive tyrants.

With overwhelming numbers, even if other races send their strongest beings into the universe, Qin Mu can easily suppress them within the primordial universe.

While pondering the matter of the Temple of the Divine God, the 10081 primordial stars were also becoming chaotic due to the continuous emergence of treasures.

Many veteran cosmic masters and cosmic overlords clearly felt that this battle on the primordial planet was much more intense than before.

There is only one reason!

That is because of the rules of the killing battlefield established by the human race.

Every ten thousand eras, the territory is divided once based on the ranking of kill points.

This forces many races to seize every opportunity that could make them stronger, and the Primordial Star is the greatest opportunity!

For some weaker groups, finding a few powerful treasures by chance can greatly enhance their strength.

You should know that many powerful beings from weaker races don't even have a single decent treasure!

Not only did numerous alien races flood into the primordial planet, but the human race did as well.

Not to mention top geniuses like Luo Feng, newly promoted Venerables of the human race such as Venerable Zhenyan and Venerable Ziling are also in dire need of treasures!

With the enhancement of their life level, they can all unleash combat power at the level of cosmic overlords.

A priceless treasure like this can be quite expensive!

Furthermore, because they had all accumulated a large amount of treasure points from their races due to their efforts to advance their life levels, they were in dire need of resources from the original star, and each of them was incredibly fanatical.

Even some of the newly crowned cosmic rulers within the race rushed into the primordial star.

Their strength might still be insufficient for the cosmic sea, after all, not everyone is like the Lord of Unity, who can obtain the ultimate treasure bestowed by the Lord of Chaos City after breaking through.

When they break through to a higher level, their clan will reward them with treasures, but these are usually just high-grade treasures.

To become stronger, one must rely on their own hard work.

These factors made the battles on the primordial star exceptionally fierce, even leading to the fall of a cosmic ruler.

……

After spending a thousand years in the primordial stars and collecting nearly a million treasures and tens of thousands of supreme treasures from 10081 primordial stars, Qin Mu stopped paying much attention to it.

He wants the ultimate treasure of the Temple of the Divine Origin, but he won't focus his main attention on it.

It would take at least tens of thousands of years for all 36 Divergent Stones to fully materialize, and Qin Mu had no interest in waiting indefinitely.

Inside the Queen's palace, Qin Mu sat on the throne, with the Queen lying lazily in his arms, too exhausted from the intense exercise to move.

"The Zerg swarm's generational transition is basically complete. Let's head to the Peak Realm next; that's where the Zerg swarm's real feast awaits!"

Qin Mu's eyes darted around.

It was quite stifling on the original star.

They discovered a great deal of treasure, but were unable to consume it.

If it weren't for the rules, the swarm of insects could have devoured the entire primordial planet.

"Are you ready? The Peak Realm is not just a mountain!"

There are thousands of dangerous places of all kinds, especially inside the mountains, where there are many special spaces.

Those spaces are where even the strongest beings in the universe can perish.

Even with the most powerful and precious palace, it wouldn't withstand the attack in the core danger zone.

The empress tilted her head and looked at Qin Mu.

"It's alright, I'll start from the outside and gradually erode it inwards."

Qin Mu smiled.

There are many dangerous places within the Peak Realm, such as the [Ice Flower Rock World], where huge flowers, seemingly beautiful, actually conceal deadly dangers. The entire space is composed of endless flowers.

Or perhaps the core area, the "Lava Fire World," where the flames erupting from the endless magma are so powerful that even the Lord of the Universe would perish if struck by them.

But in Qin Mu's view, these are all resources!

For example, the lava fire itself contains endless energy, as well as extremely precious lava crystals, and a peculiar life form called the lava serpent.

The lava serpent is not a living being of flesh and blood, but a creature made of magma from the fiery world. Its body is winding and covered with lava-like scales.

Even the strongest beings in the universe could perish under the influence of the lava and fire.

This place is a dangerous place for others, but Qin Mu regards it as a blessed place!

Even when the swarms were still at the cosmic level after entering space, they were already able to extract energy from flames, lava, and even space storms.

Not to mention the insectoid swarm that has now grown to the level of a Cosmic Venerable and acquired almost the entire genetic material of life in the original universe.

Qin Mu even wanted to capture the giant lava serpent itself.

Among the three forbidden zones, there are quite a few places similar to the lava and fire world.

For example, the endless sea of ​​lava above the God-Slaying Gorge inside the spaceship is inhabited by an even more powerful lava demon god.

If the lava serpent only managed to reach the level of the strongest being in the universe by taking advantage of its environment...

The Lava Demon, which is nearly 10 billion kilometers tall and covered with thick rocks and endless magma, possesses power surpassing that of the strongest beings in the universe.

Even if Qin Mu had a large number of Zerg Lords, they probably wouldn't be enough to defeat the Lava Demon!

Although the Lava Demon is of low intelligence, its body is indestructible, and no one has been able to injure it to this day.

Only the strongest beings in the universe can barely escape its clutches, while the ruler of the universe would almost certainly perish if he fought it.

It's even difficult to get the swarm of insects to attack it, because it has reached the point of "breaking the law with force," and all laws have no meaning for it.

Even if Qin Mu sends out a large number of universe masters, its speed will far exceed the limit of "hundred times the speed of light", and even exceed a thousand times or ten thousand times.

With this speed, each stomp is far more terrifying than the attack of any of the strongest beings in the universe, capable of instantly killing a massive number of universe lords.

Even the most precious treasures of a peak palace would shatter instantly under his attack.

"Yes, we must be careful."

Although your swarm is strong and has countless clones, there are bewitching sounds inside the mountain as you go deeper.

This mesmerizing sound is extremely peculiar; even the Lord of the Universe might fall into a permanent slumber.

Even with the innate ability to create clones, once one clone's soul is affected, the other clones will naturally be affected as well, falling into a permanent slumber.

The Queen admonished.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

Qin Mu smiled.

He was certainly familiar with this bewitching sound; such a sound targeting the soul was indeed terrifying, but the swarm contained many soulless units.

Such as the Rock Zerg, Metal Zerg, etc.

The founders of the Giant Axe and the Lord of Chaos City had already taken the Hive Tyrant inside to experience it firsthand.

This hypnotic sound is basically ineffective against the swarm.

Qin Mu prepared specialized Zerg units for areas including the Ice Flower Rock World and the Lava Fire World.

"This time, you'll come with me."

We'll head to the Peak Realm first and begin the swarm's invasion.

A major battle is probably inevitable at that time.

Then let's go together to the [Northern Snow Mist Domain] to meet the Mountain Hermit.

Qin Mu looked at the Empress and said softly.

Bringing the Queen along wasn't for her to fight; it was simply a desire to go on adventures and training together.

Having devoured the divine body of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds for tens of thousands of years, the number of Universe Lords that the insect swarm can hatch has reached an astonishing figure.

Even without treasures, the divine body, secret techniques, and the insect hive tyrant alone are enough to unleash the power of a third-tier universe master.

Even if a massive number of third-order universe masters joined forces, Qin Mu, a ninth-order true god, would not be afraid.

"Hmm, good! This research over tens of thousands of years has become a bit boring. It's a good time to go on an adventure in the cosmic sea."

"The Empress said softly."

……

Just as the two were chatting and planning to go to the cosmic sea to let the swarm of insects begin to devour the Peak Realm on a large scale.

The Chaos City Lord, dressed in a golden robe, was exploring deep within the Peak Realm.

Centered on the Chaos City Lord, twelve Hive Tyrants slowly explored the surrounding area.

All twelve Hive Tyrants were equipped with top-tier treasure armor and weapons, especially the two Hive Tyrants at the forefront who were wearing peak treasure armor.

Inside the Peak Realm, there are countless tunnels. The Chaos City Lord explored every single one of them without the slightest impatience.

As a powerful being with an endless lifespan, he would remain calm even after exploring for tens of thousands of epochs.

This place is close to the core of the Peak Realm, a place where the Chaos City Lord used to not come.

Only the strongest beings in the universe dare to enter.

After Qin Mu helps the Chaos City Lord reach level 10081 in life, the Lord's strength will increase significantly, making him capable of fighting even against the strongest beings in the universe.

Furthermore, with fifty Insectoid Tyrants by his side, the Chaos City Lord was naturally much bolder than before.

It's not just the Lord of Chaos City who's like this; over the past tens of thousands of years, the universe lords of the human race have become much bolder after being strengthened by Qin Mu.

Not only do they go to more dangerous places, but they also frequently clash fiercely with some forces in the cosmic sea.

In the past, even though the Lord of Youhou was arrogant, he was relatively low-key in the universe despite his lack of strength.

When faced with treasure, one often has no choice but to retreat.

Especially when facing the two holy lands and top-tier forces like the Divine Eye Clan.

But now?

Who cares about power!

If you find treasure, grab it!

The cosmic ocean is just like this, completely naked.

With the Hive Tyrant present, even when facing the strongest being in the universe, one can buy time to escape.

In just tens of thousands of years, the reputation of the Hive Tyrant spread throughout the cosmic sea.

Even the strongest being in the universe would feel apprehensive when faced with a series of universe masters rushing up to self-destruct.

Moreover, the number of Universe Lords in the Hong Alliance is increasing. Since they are no match for each other, they call on the members of the Hong Alliance to attack in groups.

Deep within the Peak Realm, in what appeared to be an ordinary mountain tunnel, the Chaos City Lord, accompanied by the Insect Nest Tyrant, slowly flew inwards.

The tunnel is hundreds of thousands of kilometers in diameter, and its depth is immeasurable. The Lord of Chaos cautiously flew into it...

Sometimes, seemingly ordinary tunnels and caves within the Invincible Peak Realm may contain hidden treasures.

"Um?"

The Lord of Chaos City sensed a very faint energy fluctuation.

"Energy fluctuation!"

"Could it be...?"

The Chaos City Lord's eyes lit up instantly, and his entire aura changed.

The leading Hive Tyrant activated its detection ability, carefully scanning every inch of the area in front of it.

The surrounding insectoid tyrants also became wary.

Within the inner domain of the Peak Realm, especially in its core area, any treasure discovered could be a top-tier treasure, or even a supreme treasure.

Therefore, the Chaos City Lord's advance was extremely slow.

Although there are treasures in the inner region of the Peak Realm, they are not easy to obtain, and there is a high risk that even the strongest beings in the universe could perish there.

Moving forward gradually...

The tunnel was deep and winding, and the Lord of Chaos suppressed his excitement, slowing his pace even further.

Nearly nine hours later—

"That's right!"

Suddenly, the insect hive tyrant at the forefront sent out a picture: a glimmer of light appearing at the corner of the tunnel, which made the Chaos City Lord even more excited.

"treasure."

"A great treasure."

The Lord of Chaos flew over and saw a light barrier blocking his path.

The light screen itself emitted extremely faint energy fluctuations, and strangely enough... the Chaos City Lord had previously swept it with divine power, but had not noticed the light screen at all.

"The light curtain... Only some extremely powerful treasures in the Peak Realm can cause special situations to occur."

For example, there might be dangerous areas nearby, or there might be light curtains that cannot be detected or probed.

The Lord of Chaos was extremely excited. As a cosmic ruler who had been adventuring in the cosmic sea for many years, he naturally had plenty of experience.

Be careful.

The Lord of Chaos City flipped his hand.

Wow!

A bronze palace, a supreme treasure, appeared out of thin air, reaching a height of tens of thousands of kilometers. The Lord of Chaos City shrank his divine body and stepped into it in one step.

"Hive Tyrant, advance and explore!"

The Lord of Chaos City took a deep breath.

Although he had the supreme treasure of the peak palace by his side, he still did not rush in.

This is the core area of ​​the Peak Realm; even the most powerful and precious palaces here are not necessarily safe.

Wow!

A tyrant of the insect hive, clad in top-tier armor, flew slowly.

Touching the light screen felt like breaking through a layer of water, and you flew inside.
