Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 553 A Swarm of Billions of Insects Unleashed! The Dangerous Land Flattened

Inside the temple, Qin Muyao gazed at the endless void around him.

"Peak of Triumph!"

In the distance, the towering, seemingly endless main mountain peak and the cascading waterfall exude boundless power.

Its power caused countless celestial rocks to fly around it, and also forced away a large amount of chaotic air currents.

"From today onwards, the Zerg Swarm will truly begin to explore the Cosmic Ocean and the Peak Realm."

A sharp glint flashed in Qin Mu's eyes.

"As one of the three forbidden zones of the cosmic sea, the main mountain of the Inclined Peak is about 9802 million light-years high, and the maximum diameter of the truncated peak is 1226 light-years."

The waters surrounding the main mountain peak are hundreds of millions of light-years in diameter, larger than an entire cosmic nation.

This primordial sea is located at the very edge of the Peak Realm, making the development of the Peak Realm's main peak no easy feat.

The large-scale development of the swarm, of course, refers to the inner domain!

In reality, not to mention the inner domain of the Peak Realm, even the outer domain of the Peak Realm is not an easy thing to develop on a large scale.

In the cosmic sea, the most dangerous beings are not actually the strong ones from other races.

Rather, it is the extreme natural environment within the universe and the ocean!

The three most dangerous places are the worst.

The outer domain of the Peak Realm can be divided into 'airspace' and 'water space'.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: ①⓪①ⓚⓚⓢ.ⓒⓞⓜ]

The airspace is fine; it consists mainly of celestial rocks flying in the void, so the level of danger is relatively low.

But the water area, formed by the waterfall's impact, permeates and surrounds the entire main mountain, with jagged rocks and dangers everywhere.

In most places, even the Lord of the Universe dares not teleport; they must fly forward with extreme caution.

The primordial sea of ​​insect swarms is only at the very edge of the waters.

If one ventures deep into the water, especially near the main peak area, the continuous undulating rocks and the immense pressure of the water are so great that even a supreme being would be instantly reduced to dust.

There are many dangerous places in the water.

These perilous places are so dangerous that even the ruler of the universe could easily perish if he entered them.

Besides, there are many other life forms similar to water spirits in the water. These special life forms, with the help of the special environment in the water, can even rival the Lord of the Universe at their weakest!

Even the Lord of the Universe would perish if entangled by a large number of water spirits.

Of course, these are the perspectives for other ethnic groups.

The insect swarm has been preparing for this for tens of thousands of years and has long been well prepared.

Let's begin!

Qin Mu looked into the distance and said calmly.

slam-la-

As soon as the words were spoken, the already turbulent primordial sea began to boil.

Tens of thousands of Leviathans, each a Hive Tyrant, roared as they flew out of the Primal Sea toward the main peak of the Peak Realm, their massive forms pushing aside the boundless sea.

The waters surrounding the primordial sea were churning with waves.

Each Leviathan is accompanied by hundreds of millions of smaller combat units.

After the vanguard of billions set out, nine colossal rock-devouring beasts, each tens of millions of kilometers long, followed closely behind.

These are some of the reasons why Qin Mu has the confidence to develop the main peak of the Peak Realm.

These rock-devouring behemoths were units that Qin Mu selected from countless lives in the swarm's database, and modified based on a special life form called the rock-devouring behemoth from the primordial universe.

A normal Rock Devouring Beast has a life level approximately a thousand times higher than the average life level, and its body length is only tens of thousands of miles. It is extremely adept at devouring various hard mountain bodies and mineral veins.

Furthermore, the Rock Devouring Beast also possesses a talent called "Rock Gold Erosion".

It can erode and decompose various hard rocks, metals, and other substances, and devour them.

After being specially modified and strengthened by Qin Mu, these nine rock-devouring behemoths are not simple life forms, but rather a combination similar to Behemoths!

These rock-devouring behemoths come in various forms, each with its own unique characteristics. In fact, each segment can be considered an independent entity with different functions.

In particular, the enormous spiral-shaped mouth on its head was meticulously crafted by Qin Mu, incorporating his highest achievements in body refining and treasure refining over tens of thousands of years. Each of its sharp teeth, which are tens of thousands of kilometers long, can be regarded as a top-tier treasure!

When that mouthpiece starts to rotate, it becomes a top-tier treasure, which can be easily chewed up.

Combined with its innate abilities, it can easily gnaw at the outer mountainside of the main peak of the Peak Realm.

Of course, if it's inside, especially in the core area of ​​the mountain caves where thousands of insect hive tyrants self-destructed, then it's very difficult to break through.

Even if the strongest being in the universe were to attack with all their might, it would be difficult to cause any damage there.

The Zergling Tyrant's three consecutive self-destructions only caused a minor collapse of a cave.

However, this nine-headed rock-devouring behemoth was one of the first experimental subjects.

After actual development, targeted modifications will be made to make them more suitable for eroding the mountain rocks in the inner region of the sloping peak.

Then large-scale incubation will begin.

The development of the Peak Boundary by the Zerg swarm will undoubtedly take an extremely long time.

You should know that the inner domain of the Peak Realm is not really only tens of thousands of light-years away!

It contains countless spaces and thousands of dangerous places, some of which have spaces spanning hundreds of millions of light-years.

For example, the dark place at the core of the Peak Realm is a super-large space that can nurture a billion True God Realm Beasts to fight each other!

If the space is too small, it simply won't be enough for a billion world beasts to move around in.

After the nine-headed rock-devouring behemoths flew out, a group of enormous mountain giants followed behind them.

These life forms, naturally capable of controlling various types of rocks, are also adept at mining mountains and are the best units for crafting weapons.

It can directly use local materials to extract the essence from the mountain rocks and create powerful treasures.

Further on, a group of forest lords, whose size had exceeded one million kilometers, flew out. As beings that were half plant and half flesh and blood, their root systems were extremely developed, and they could take root in the earth even in the hardest rocks.

The Orc army they cultivated was the best labor force, and its super vitality could play a special role in many situations.

After that, swarms of insects with various energy life forms, metallic life forms, and other strange structures followed closely behind.

In different dangerous places, it would be more suitable to have different swarms of insects devour them.

For example, in the most common Earth Fire World within the Inner Domain of the Peak Realm, Qin Mu specially cultivated various insectoid races composed entirely of flames and magma.

They are able to survive freely in it, feeding on fire.

Or perhaps in some worlds of raging storms, Qin Mu cultivated various wind-attribute life forms similar to tornadoes!

Over these tens of thousands of years, although Qin Mu did not break through the 10081 limit in his research on life levels, his research progress on non-flesh and blood life has undergone a qualitative change!

The swarm is on its way!

The magnificent scene was so breathtaking that even the creator of the giant axe and the lord of Chaos City, who were already mentally prepared, were terrified!

Although these swarm units lack top-tier units, their sheer numbers mean that even just the Leviathans and Hive Tyrants at the front could probably wipe out the entire cosmic sea!

However, according to Qin Mu, this was merely the vanguard of the insect swarm's development of the Peak Realm!

Qin Mu's development strategy was very simple and brutal: he simply crushed everything in his path!

Rumbling--

The Leviathan fleet at the forefront dispersed in the water, with some of the insectoid swarms radiating spatial ripples from their bodies.

That's a reconnaissance method used by insect swarms.

Wherever they go, any movement will be detected by the swarm of insects.

Those Leviathans would occasionally spew out flesh spores.

These fleshy spores, suspended in the water, began to devour the surrounding chaotic air currents, forming three-dimensional fungal carpets!

These three-dimensional fungal carpets, like giant nets, continue to spread further and further, seemingly about to completely cover the entire body of water.

The waterways are fraught with danger, but also full of treasures.

Treasures in water can exist in many forms.

For others, obtaining these treasures depends on luck, skill, and courage.

However, with the swarm's net-like advance, wherever they go becomes their territory, and all the treasures are taken into their possession.

In less than a light-year advance, the swarm discovered dozens of relatively rare materials that could be used to craft powerful artifacts.

The unbridled expansion of the swarm quickly attracted the attention of several aquatic spirits in the water.

wow-

These mindless life forms suddenly and violently manipulated the endless currents of water in the aquatic zone, turning them into whirlpools that swept towards the vanguard of the insect swarm.

However, before these water spirits could act, the swarm's reconnaissance forces discovered them.

There was no need for the Hive Tyrant to take action; the wings of the leading Leviathans simply vibrated.

Its enormous mouth, like that of a giant Kun, opened slightly, and the tentacles on its head glowed. A beam of light, about a hundred miles thick, directly blasted the water spirit apart.

The vortex that had just formed collapsed instantly after losing its master's control.

Qin Mu had studied the Water Spirit for tens of thousands of years and was extremely familiar with its characteristics and weaknesses.

After the upgrade, Leviathan, whose life level has reached the perfect level of 10081, can easily kill it with a single blow.

The few aquatic spirits were just an appetizer; the swarm army soon encountered more cosmic sea life forms living in the water.

The most powerful one, a being similar to a giant Kun with a body length of tens of thousands of kilometers and strength reaching the fifth-order universe lord level, was directly suppressed on the spot by dozens of insect hive tyrants and became research data of the insect swarm.

Soon, the swarm army encountered its first perilous place on its journey—the Cold Flame Domain.

This is a relatively common dangerous place in the Cosmic Sea, but it is not very famous.

In this body of water, flames emanating an extremely cold aura are scattered haphazardly. Ordinary cosmic venerables who enter it will freeze to death.

Even the Lord of the Universe must be careful in the core area.

But when the swarm of insects arrived, they rushed in without the slightest hesitation.

The Leviathan at the forefront, clearing the way, suddenly spewed out a massive amount of flesh spores from its abdomen. These flesh spores flew into the Leviathan and immediately began to evolve and mutate, turning into ice crystals.

These ice crystal-like flesh spores were constantly devouring the icy aura of the Cold Flame Domain, and even directly swallowing the flames that emitted extreme cold.

Then, from within the flesh spores, ice-crystal-like fungal carpet tissue surged out and expanded outwards at an extremely rapid speed.

Moreover, these spores also spawn a large number of beetles that emit a chilling aura.

They were all feeding on this special cold air, and were rapidly expanding and multiplying.

A very wide passage was quickly cleared within the Cold Flame Domain to allow the insect swarm behind to pass through.

Even as the swarm devours it, this perilous place, which is a light-year in diameter, is shrinking at a rate visible to the naked eye.

At this rate of consumption, the entire Cold Flame Domain will disappear in at most tens of thousands of years.

When formulating the plan to devour the Peak Realm, Qin Mu had the insect swarm scout the surrounding environment, and the route they would take was planned in advance.

Due to the unique environment of the Cold Flame Domain, insect swarms have long been collected and specially bred insect units.

The fungal carpet tissue has also undergone targeted evolutionary mutations, allowing it to live freely within it.

When the rock-devouring behemoths passed by, they couldn't detect anything unusual; it was just like any other body of water.

"That's insane! They actually eliminated a dangerous place completely."

The Queen watched the insect swarm's movements from afar and murmured to herself.

In the past, relying on the Queen's Palace, she didn't take ordinary dangerous places seriously, but that was just passing through.

Qin Mu's swarm of insects was different; it completely leveled a dangerous place!

"The swarm's movement is too great; the entire cosmic ocean is likely to be shaken again."

The Chaos City Lord, who was moving with the swarm of insects, was shocked.

Not only the Lord of Chaos City, but also a large number of human universe lords, including the Lord of Darkness, were all dumbfounded.

Instead of avoiding dangerous terrain, they charged straight through the middle – that's just too domineering!

"The cosmic sea is shaking? I don't care."

Qin Mu chuckled softly.

The swarm swept through, flattening several similar dangerous areas, and then surged towards the main body of the mountains in the Inclined Peak Realm.

There is a huge passage leading to the main peak of the Inclined Peak Realm, which is also a very famous and dangerous place - the Stream Cave.

That's when the real test for the swarm begins!
