Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 560 The Panic-Stricken Mountain Dweller

"Your presence has brought great honor to my humble abode."

In the battle within the Inner Domain of the Peak Realm, the human race became the overlord of the Cosmic Sea, and the reputation of the insect swarm spread throughout the entire Cosmic Sea. Now, they are even devouring the entire Peak Realm.

The battle between the Giant Axe Founder and the Divine Eye True Lord earned him the title of the strongest being in the Cosmic Sea, further enhancing humanity's prestige.

With the blessing of numerous supreme treasures, the Empress's strength is likely far greater than before.

The Mountain Guest, with two crystalline horns on his forehead, sat cross-legged on the palace, facing Qin Mu, the founder of the Giant Axe, and the Empress. He offered compliments while keeping his eyes fixed on Qin Mu.

Although he was located in the remote [Northern Snowstorm Domain], he was very knowledgeable about the events, big and small, that were happening in the cosmic sea.

He had been watching closely when the powerful members of the Divine Eye Clan and the Purple Moon Holy Land were besieging and killing humans.

If Qin Mu is indeed, as speculated, the reincarnation of a powerful being, then he wouldn't be troubled by such a trivial matter.

As he had predicted, what happened next was exactly what he had accomplished; he easily killed all his enemies.

When the swarm of insects began to devour the Peak Realm, not only were the forces in the Cosmic Sea utterly horrified, but even he was startled.

Such extraordinary life forms as swarms are clearly not products of the primordial universe.

Even on the Origin Continent, such a peculiar life form might not exist; at least, he had never heard of it.

This is not simply about breeding insects and beasts!

Based on the knowledge of the Mountain-Sitting Guest God-King level, and considering the scene when Qin Mu broke through the primordial universe, this swarm of billions of insects is actually a single entity!

Based on the intelligence gathered, this is still an entity that can continuously devour powerful genes and evolve.

This led the mountain dweller to wonder if this swarm of insects was a powerful life form from outside the legendary source world.

As a God-King, even though he was only at the first level of cultivation, he had heard about some things outside the Origin World.

While Qin Mu's swarm of insects terrified the forces of the Cosmic Sea, they were also waiting.

When Qin Mu breaks through to become the strongest in the universe, and his many clones merge into one, that will be the time when humanity's strength is greatly weakened.

After all, once the many clones merge into one, Qin Mu will only have his human form left, and no matter how strong he becomes, he will be no different from the original ancestor.

But the mountain dweller did not think so.

The many powerful beings in the primordial universe and the cosmic sea disappear when they merge into one because their ability to create clones is a gift from the primordial universe and its supreme rules.

But Qin Mu's clone might not be like that.

In the Origin Continent, many powerful individuals possess clones through secret techniques or their understanding of the Great Dao, and some even have countless clones.

Judging from various intelligence reports, Qin Mu has clearly spent a great deal of time and energy on the insect swarm.

How could Qin Mu allow the insect swarm to disappear?

He once suspected that Qin Mu entered the Cosmic Sea to cultivate the insect swarm.

The truly terrifying side of the insect swarm will probably only be revealed on the continent of origin.

There are countless powerful beings there, and many beings with primordial bloodlines.

If his guess is correct, Qin Mu's swarm of insects is terrifying, and helping him take revenge might not be a bad idea.

"Haha, we've come here this time because we need your help."

Qin Mu laughed heartily, making no attempt to conceal his purpose for coming.

"You need something from me? Please speak freely!"

The mountain dweller laughed, but his heart tightened. What Qin Mu said in this way must be something serious.

"Although we acquired many powerful treasures in the previous battle, they are not suitable for us."

So I would like to ask you to help me forge a suitable weapon for the giant axe and the queen!

The giant axe needs a battle axe, and the queen needs a supreme treasure imbued with the power of spiritual energy.

Qin Mu said directly.

Needless to say, the giant axe was not very suitable for the Empress, even though she had acquired a powerful treasure of the shuttle type. She was more adept at precise attacks.

Qin Mu knew that this was not suitable for the Empress.

Since we'd need the Mountain Dweller's help to forge a supreme treasure for the Giant Axe anyway, we might as well just exchange them together.

"Battle axe, a supreme treasure of mental power? No problem, but you'll need to prepare the materials; I don't have many in my collection."

The mountain dweller's heart, which had been pounding, immediately calmed down. He couldn't guarantee anything else, but crafting weapons was a piece of cake for him.

The Mountain Hermit was not surprised that Qin Mu knew he was good at weapon crafting.

Even the God of Crafts is working for Qin Mu, and you can learn this from him.

"Regarding the materials, we have made some preparations. Giant Axe, Queen, you two should tell the Mountain Dweller your needs!"

Qin Mu smiled.

In the battle at the Peak Realm, Qin Mu not only gained a large number of supreme treasures, but also collected all the broken peak treasures.

The amount of material extracted from those thousands of top-tier treasure fragments is truly astonishing.

Not to mention, the swarm subsequently swept through more than a dozen broken microcosms, obtaining countless resources from them.

After the defeat of the Divine Eye True Lord, he has sent 80% of the tribe's resources to us. The human race now has a mountain of resources.

The swarm is also developing the Peak Boundary, reaping massive amounts of valuable resources every moment.

Forget about forging two supreme treasures, you could easily create several more.

"What are your ideas? You can tell me, and I'll try my best to build it according to your needs."

The Mountain-Sitting Guest looked at the Giant Axe Founder and the Queen. He didn't really think much of them; they were just two minor True Gods.

However, he seemed very cautious at this moment. The giant axe aside, according to his intelligence, the Empress was Qin Mu's Daoist partner.

Although he didn't understand why Qin Mu would choose a weak True God from the Primordial Universe Sea as his Dao Companion, it didn't stop Zuo Shan Ke from paying even more attention to it.

As a former ruler of a country, he was well aware of the power of influence from one's spouse.

He wouldn't easily offend Qin Mu before he knew his true purpose and strength.

"I need a battle axe! A battle axe that can unleash my full power. My general idea is..."

The founder of the giant axe excitedly shared his thoughts.

He had been searching for a perfect, supreme battle axe for far too long, and now that it could be custom-made to his liking, how could he not be excited?

"This is my current supreme and most powerful battle sword. I wonder if it can be used as material?"

As he spoke, the founder of the giant axe took out the supreme treasure, the battle sword.

"No problem, with this battle sword, the forging of the supreme treasure will be even faster."

"The guest sitting on the mountain laughed."

"I need a telekinetic weapon that can utilize the advantages of my soul. It needs to be more refined. My idea is..."

The Empress also shared her thoughts and took out her most powerful psychic treasure.

"Sure! With these two supreme treasures, and a large number of peak treasure fragments, forging a suitable supreme treasure for you will not be a problem."

The Mountain Guest accepted the two supreme treasures and a massive amount of fragments of peak treasures, then tentatively addressed Qin Mu.

"I wonder if Qin Mu needs to forge a powerful and handy treasure?"

These fragments of supreme treasures are too numerous; they could be used to forge three ultimate treasures.

Qin Mu looked at the probing guest with a half-smile and shook his head.

"I cultivate the ten fundamental laws simultaneously, and I have countless clones. I can skillfully use all kinds of supreme treasures, so it makes no difference to me what kind of supreme treasure I use."

Furthermore, it won't be long before I obtain a batch of embryonic embryos.

"A primordial embryo?" The mountain dweller was startled.

The Primordial Embryo is a treasure found only on the Origin Continent. It can grow continuously, and as its strength increases, it incorporates more secret techniques and materials. It can even accompany a powerful individual until it reaches the pinnacle of the entire ancient civilization.

Each embryo can be considered an embryo of a divine king's weapon.

It might not seem like much in the Origin Continent, but Qin Mu was able to obtain a batch of Yuan Embryos in a very short time.

Could this be the reason why Qin Mu had the insect swarm excavate the Peak Boundary?

The giant axe and the empress, who were listening nearby, were also surprised. Judging from the astonished expression on the mountain dweller's face, it was clearly a treasure even more powerful than the supreme treasure.

However, neither of them showed it. Before they came, Qin Mu had told them that no matter what he said, they should remain calm.

"Well, so let's use those fragments of top-tier treasures on their two ultimate treasures."

I will try to increase its power as much as possible. I don't expect it to be as powerful as the Star Tower, but at least it will be usable for a while after I pass through the cycle of reincarnation.

After all, the situation with the Star Tower was too special; that golden light…”

Qin Mu said, seemingly casually, yet with a sigh.

The Star Tower is no ordinary weapon of a god-king; it completely surpasses the highest level of the Mountain-Sitting Guest and has entered another realm.

Even the Mountain Hermit could not possibly forge a similar treasure again.

"Golden light?!?"

The mountain dweller felt a sudden chill run down his spine, and a profound sense of panic filled his heart.

An unexpected incident did occur during the forging of the Star Tower. A golden light merged into it, which actually made the Star Tower take shape faster and turn it into a weapon of a god-king.

But how did Qin Mu know about this?

No one knew about this except him!

"Haha, don't be nervous, I mean you no harm."

I only noticed you by chance when I saw a golden light descend, and that's how I started paying attention to you.

Qin Mu laughed heartily.

However, these words shocked and terrified the mountain dweller, who only noticed the arrival of a golden light by chance.

This Qin Mu is very likely the reincarnation of some powerful being!

A powerful being whose strength far surpasses his own.

Only then can one truly understand oneself.

One idea after another popped into the mind of the mountain dweller.

There is hope!

If we can get Qin Mu's support, then there might really be hope for revenge.

He was once driven to desperation by the three rulers of the Food Kingdom and fled into the Cosmic Sea. He only hoped to enslave the Beasts of the Realm and cultivated the Flame God Clan and the human lineage in the Primordial Universe.

All for the sake of avenging his loved ones.

But that's too difficult, and the hope is too slim.

If I can make a deal with Qin Mu and get him to help me get revenge, then my chances will greatly increase!

The man sitting on the mountain made a decision in an instant.
