Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

boom!

A dazzling light filled the corridor, and Duan Donghe appeared, his expression one of extreme excitement.

"Hahaha, Qin Mu, the Swarm Overlord! Congratulations on breaking through the fourth bottleneck."

From this moment on, you are the next Duan Donghe!

Duan Donghe laughed heartily, making no attempt to hide his excitement.

"He broke through? No! No! This is impossible!"

"How is that possible? It's only been 2700 years!"

"It's fake! It's definitely fake!"

"How can we give it to him directly? Three eras haven't even passed yet, we still have a chance! We can also break through to the fourth bottleneck!"

The inheritors below immediately erupted in uproar; they could not accept such an ending!

Duan Donghe's smile vanished, and he looked down coldly, saying, "You think you can break through the fourth bottleneck? Don't even mention three epochs, you wouldn't have a chance even in three hundred epochs!"

I promised that once you reach the fourth bottleneck, you will receive the inheritance of the Broken East River. According to the rules... Jin Jie, die!

Duan Donghe waved his hand, just about to launch an attack.

"Lord Duan Donghe, please wait!"

Qin Mu quickly spoke up, "Please don't slaughter my human race, Luo Feng!"

Duan Donghe paused briefly in his hand before speaking.

"Human Luo Feng? Good! You are already the next generation of Duan Donghe, and human Luo Feng has not come into contact with the true inheritance, so I will follow your arrangements."

Wow!

The words fell.

Each crystal pillar in the corridor of life and death burst forth with golden light. That golden light could form a palace, but it could also be used to attack.

Whoosh!

Countless points of light invaded the powerful figures, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of powerful figures on the scene were instantly annihilated and turned into ashes, leaving only Qin Mu's swarm of insects and Luo Feng.

Even the Deer-Insect Lord, who sensed something was wrong, immediately burned his divine power and activated his supreme treasure armor to transform into a deer-insect, but it was all in vain.

Not only the Lord of the Deer Insect, but also the Lord of the Universe of the Purple Moon Holy Land and the Lord of the Universe of the Eastern Emperor Holy Land, three other Lords of the Universe were surging with divine power, unleashing the might of supreme treasures.

However, no matter how hard they struggled, they couldn't even make a ripple.

They all perished!

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

The four supreme treasures transformed into streams of light and flew into Duan Donghe's hands.

At the same time, one side wall of the hall suddenly split open to both sides, revealing a passage.

A blurry figure slowly emerged.

He had golden scales, stood upright in a human-like form, and had a pair of golden wings on his back. Nine pairs of eyes swept over, startling even the surviving Luo Feng.

"It's him?" Luo Feng was surprised to see the powerful figure appear.

"Thunder-Clad Demon God? What's he doing here?"

Thunder God, the strongest lone cosmic being in the second era of reincarnation, is only considered ordinary among the strongest beings in the universe.

Because he did not possess any supreme treasures, and his famous treasure, the "Thunder Robe," was merely a similar item to the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor.

He is considered one of the most low-profile figures in the universe.

Upon seeing the Thunder-Clad Demon God, Luo Feng instantly recalled a mission Qin Mu had issued to the human race's Universe Lord: to find the Thunder-Clad Demon God's whereabouts!

Powerful figures like the Lord of Chaos City and the Lord of Darkness have searched for it, but haven't found any clues.

This task has extremely high priority, but the Thunderclap Demon God itself is not a special life form.

Luo Feng was somewhat curious as to why Qin Mu wanted to find him.

When Luo Feng thought about Qin Mu's actions and what he had said before, he had a vague idea in his mind.

"Lei Yi, my friend. It's a pity that your enemies, the Divine Eye Clan, only sent two Universe Lords; the others didn't come in."

Therefore, I cannot avenge you.

These few supreme treasures are yours as compensation.

Under the watchful eyes of Qin Mu and Luo Feng, all four supreme treasures in Duan Donghe's hands flew toward the Thunder-Clad Demon God.

"Thank you very much, Lord Duan Donghe!"

The Thunder-Clad Demon God stared blankly at the four treasures before him, his gaze filled with complex emotions.

"These four supreme treasures do not have high requirements for recognizing a master, so you can easily complete the recognition process."

With these, your strength will increase, and you can take revenge yourself.

The Thunder God nodded excitedly, and he readily accepted the title of master on the spot.

These four supreme treasures can be recognized by the Lord of the Universe. The Thunder-Clad Demon God is the strongest being in the universe, so recognizing them as his master is naturally even easier for him.

Taking advantage of the moment when the Thunder God was recognizing its master, Duan Donghe looked at Qin Mu, then glanced at Luo Feng, and said.

"The Thunder God was the first person to come into contact with me."

However, he did not meet the requirements for my Duan Donghe inheritance, so I went with him to the Yanbing Domain to select an inheritor.

I had promised him I would help him kill the True Gods of the Divine Eye Clan who were entering to receive the inheritance, but because of you, none of them got in.

Qin Mu nodded, knowing about the matter but not revealing it at the moment.

Meanwhile, Luo Feng, on the other side, was experiencing a storm of emotions.

"It's true! Brother Mu really knows about this inheritance. No wonder he said he has been searching for this inheritance for many years and finally waited for it to be born!"

No wonder he was searching for the Thunder God!

But how did Brother Mu know that the first person to come into contact with the Broken East River's inheritance was the Thunder-Clad Demon God?

A series of thoughts rang in Luo Feng's mind. His original doubts were answered, but new doubts immediately arose.

Brother Mu knows too much; he's too mysterious.

This feeling has been there since Earth's time.

Almost omniscient and omnipotent!

However, Luo Feng remained silent at this moment, simply watching quietly.

The Thunder God quickly refined the Deer Insect Armor and put it on his body. He then successfully refined the other three pieces.

He looked at Qin Mu and a smile appeared on his lips.

"If someone else were to inherit the legacy, I would feel a little uncomfortable, but it's different for you."

I have tried countless times to kill the true god of the Divine Eye Clan, but I have been unable to do so.

And you actually killed four of them in one battle!

Although I didn't kill him myself, I'm still grateful to you.

Qin Mu nodded slightly and spoke.

"If someone becomes my enemy, I will naturally kill them."

"The matter is settled." On the throne in the main hall, Duan Donghe saw that Lei Yi Demon God had already refined the supreme treasure.

"You can leave now, and Luo Feng too, you should leave as well. Just go back the way you came."

Once you leave, the hatch of the Tomb Ship will close.

Next comes the true inheritance of my Duan Donghe, which only Qin Mu can receive.

"Yes, Lord Duan Donghe!"

Lei Yi Moshen and Luo Feng bowed slightly and then flew back in the direction they had come from.

……

"Qin Mu, come with me to receive the true inheritance of my Duan Donghe lineage."

Duan Donghe's face showed a hint of pleasure, the pleasure of having gained a most outstanding successor.

After he finished speaking, he pointed to a distant place, and a rumbling sound was heard. The palace gates that had been closed in the distance had been raised, and even Qin Mu could see the palace from there.

Donghe himself transformed into a stream of light, flashing instantly to the distant hall.

"yes!"

Qin Mu waved his hand, taking all the insect hive tyrants and innate beast gods into the palace treasure he carried with him, and then transformed into a stream of light to follow him in.

The ancient hall was completely dark, with only the nine crystal spheres embedded in the ceiling emitting a faint light that illuminated the entire hall.

Duan Donghe landed on the throne in the palace hall, then looked at Qin Mu and smiled.

"If you fail to break through the fourth bottleneck, then you will have to undergo the next test, which is to enter my Duan Donghe Inheritance Space and pass the basic test."

The assessment was quite simple: choose one of my 820 fundamental inheritances from Duan Donghe, and then comprehend the secret technique of the strongest being in the universe.

Qin Mu nodded slightly after listening, but didn't say anything.

He knew about this inheritance. In the original timeline, Luo Feng had chosen the inheritance of the sword and comprehended the secret technique of the strongest in the universe, namely the seventh-order sword technique, in the three sword mountains, thus obtaining the inheritance in one fell swoop.

In fact, this assessment was nothing to Qin Mu. With his mastery of the secret rune diagrams, he had already created more than one seventh-order secret technique.

If there really is a test, I can pass it easily.

In fact, this is also why Duan Donghe directly determined the successor.

Those who can break through the four bottlenecks in the Rhinoceros King's game can all achieve this.

"However, there is no need for that now. You can simply accept the core inheritance of my Duan Donghe lineage."

As he spoke, the throne behind Duan Donghe and the rock wall behind it suddenly cracked open, and the sounds of countless waterfalls and the fragrance of flowers wafted out.

There were even faint sounds of birdsong and the roars of strange beasts.

"This is the inheritance space." Duan Donghe flew into it, stood in mid-air, his gaze distant. "This is where the Duan Donghe of each generation received their inheritance, and so do I."

Qin Mu followed closely behind and flew inside.

At first glance, it was a world of birdsong and fragrant flowers, a veritable paradise.

From afar, one can see birds showing off their feather-like wings as they fly, leaving behind trails of fiery rainbows or dazzling colors.

In the distance, the silhouettes of strange beasts could be faintly seen emerging from the weeds, or occasionally, a glimpse of a strange beast could be seen in the lake further away.

"It's called a space for inheritance," Duan Donghe sighed, "but it can absorb energy, absorb all energy, including the chaotic air currents in the cosmic sea, and maintain the stability of the space and the reproduction of life within it."

Therefore, you can think of it as a special microcosm.

Qin Mu nodded slightly. As the place where the Duan Donghe lineage was passed down, it was normal for it to have all sorts of wonders.

After all, this is a legacy at the level of a god-king!

"Throughout the generations of my Duandonghe lineage, there are those who specialize in close combat, those who engage in long-range attacks, those who forge weapons, and those who operate machinery... encompassing almost all categories of my hometown."

As the next Duan Donghe, you can choose according to your own preferences.

Your existence is unique; you possess countless clones, which I cannot see through.

But that doesn't matter, the stronger you are, the better!

This is just the outer perimeter of the inheritance space, containing only basic inheritances. I'll take you directly to the core.

Duan Donghe pointed ahead and, relying on his absolute control over the entire inheritance space, directly moved Qin Mu to the depths of the inheritance space.

In an instant, Qin Mu felt the scene before him change, and when he came to his senses, he was already standing on the summit of an endlessly high mountain.

Looking down, all you can see are endless clouds and mist flowing around the mountain peaks, like rivers, but the land is nowhere to be seen.

"This is the core inheritance site of the Broken East River." (End of Chapter)
