Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

When Qin Mu's palm touched the Gem Egg, a thin film immediately appeared on the surface of the Gem Egg, with countless law patterns flowing on the film.

"Boom~~"

The entire treasure mountain trembled, and light began to emerge from every corner of the mountain. The patterns of laws lit up, seemingly reflecting the thin membrane on the Gem egg.

A mark of inheritance also appeared between Qin Mu's eyebrows.

It forms a resonance-like effect.

Immediately afterward, all the membranes and light dissipated, and Qin Mu's life imprint was left on the Jade Egg.

"A primordial embryo requires a huge price to create." An aged voice rang in Qin Mu's ears. "The current Duan Donghe... Remember, it will be your lifelong partner, your closest friend in life and death. Treat it well."

"That voice..."

Qin Mu was slightly taken aback. "Is it the third-generation patriarch who built the treasure mountain?"

"They enslaved the Gem egg while they were collecting it. How thoughtful of them."

Qin Mu was secretly delighted to sense a faint consciousness emanating from within the Gem Egg.

"However, there's a better way for the swarm! Gem Egg, become a member of the swarm!"

An invisible force invaded the Gem Egg. Because it had already been enslaved, the consciousness inside the Gem Egg did not resist in the slightest, and was completely obedient and cooperated with the swarm's corrosive power.

In just a moment, a new point of light appeared in the swarm network.

At the same time, an immense and ancient memory surged into Qin Mu's soul along with this information.

In fact, in Qin Mu's perception, this inherited memory was only slightly less than the entire Broken East River inheritance!

However, unlike the Duan Donghe inheritance, which is all-encompassing and includes almost all kinds of inheritances, the inheritances in the Gem Egg are mostly about how to nurture life and create various powerful warriors.

Pregnancy, nurturing, bloodline regulation, etc.

At the same time, there are also various fighting methods of the Gem warriors!

It has everything: ranged attacks, melee attacks, soul attacks, illusions, and even combo attacks.

More importantly, it contains an almost massive amount of life patterns.

"Hahaha, just as I thought! This is the perfect treasure for me, the perfect treasure for the Zerg swarm!"

Feeling the endless stream of inherited knowledge flowing in, as vast as the ocean, Qin Mu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"With the countless powerful life charts in this inheritance, and even the life chart of the Gem Egg itself, after absorbing the excellent gene parts, the foundation, analytical and other abilities of the entire swarm can be improved in all aspects."

It even possesses various powerful life-giving materials for breaking through the divine power path.

For Qin Mu and the insect swarm, this is a legacy no less important than the legacy of Duan Donghe, and perhaps even more important!

Even when the Gem egg merged into the swarm, Qin Mu felt a sense of elevation in his very life essence, similar to when he received the Zerg inheritance during his Earth era.

That is the most essential and profound level of improvement in the life of the insect swarm.

……

Just as Qin Mu received the inheritance, a commotion broke out outside the Tomb Ship.

At the hatch of the Tomb Ship, the figures of Thunder-Clad Demon God and Luo Feng flew out, and then the gate closed.

"Please, Overlord of the Swarm, allow me to leave."

Looking at the swarms of insects filling the sky around him, the Thunder-Clad Demon God couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

Inside the Tomb Ship, he secretly scanned the outside scene with his divine power, knowing that the Tomb Ship was already surrounded by countless swarms of insects. However, when he actually faced the swarms of insects, he still couldn't help but feel panicked.

Especially when he came out, the cold gazes of the Giant Axe Founder and the Queen were directed at him, causing the Thunder-Clad Demon God to break out in a cold sweat.

Within the Flame and Ice Domain, teleportation is inherently impossible.

Moreover, this place is sealed by two layers of supreme treasures. If Qin Mu wanted to kill it and take away those four supreme treasures, it would have no power to resist!

Even with four supreme treasures, he would still end up being sealed away.

"Let's go! I am already the next Duan Donghe, so naturally I won't do anything to go back on my word. I should thank you for being able to obtain this inheritance."

Qin Mu's voice came, and at the same time, he opened a path for the Thunder-Clad Demon God to leave.

The Thunder-Clad Demon God dared not linger for a moment and immediately transformed into a streak of light, flying away.

"You've already received the inheritance?"

Upon hearing Qin Mu's voice, the founder of the giant axe couldn't help but exclaim.

"Yes, I am receiving the inheritance! I will tell you about it after the inheritance is completed. This inheritance is extremely powerful and all-encompassing, so I need some time."

Qin Mu grinned as he looked at the creator of the giant axe.

"Alright! Alright! Alright! You will accept the inheritance first!"

The founder of the giant axe exclaimed in delight.

Although he knew that Qin Mu was almost certain to obtain the inheritance at the speed at which he cracked the Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation, Giant Axe was still incredibly excited when the inheritance actually fell into human hands.

Meanwhile, as soon as the Thunderclap Demon God appeared outside the Tomb Ship, he was discovered by the strongest beings in the universe who were lying in wait outside.

The True God of Burning Flame and the Lord of the Northern True Star, especially from the Purple Moon Holy Land and the Eastern Emperor Holy Land, were extremely shocked and enraged.

Just now, thousands of powerful individuals from their two holy lands who had entered the Tomb Ship to receive their inheritance perished in an instant, and they even discovered their ultimate treasure on the Thunder-Clad Demon God!

"Thunder-Clad Demon God! How do you possess the armor of the Deer-Insect Lord? What have you done?!"

The Burning Flame True God glared angrily at the Thunder-Clad Demon God.

However, the Thunder-Clad Demon God didn't even bother to look at him, instead turning his head to look at the third and fourth True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan, who were equally astonished and uncertain.

With four supreme treasures at his disposal, he wouldn't even fear a ninth-tier true god like the Thunder God in his robes, so why would he be afraid of the Purple Moon Holy Land?

It's nothing but a toothless paper tiger.

The Thunder God sneered, then looked around at the dozen or so hidden strongest beings in the universe, and finally stared intently at the third and fourth True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan.

"I was the first to discover this tomb-like vessel!"

I originally intended to trap and kill your Divine Eye Clan inside, but you were lucky this time that you didn't enter the Tomb Ship, otherwise you would all be dead!

However, it's not unreasonable for the swarm's overlord to obtain it, since he previously annihilated four of your true gods!

Haha, your most powerful treasures are all gone, your strength must be greatly diminished, right?

In the days to come, I'll have plenty of time to slowly while away the time with you all!

I will exterminate your entire race!

Ha ha ha ha--"

After saying that, the Thunder God laughed wildly and transformed into a deer-like beast, rushing into the distance without giving the two holy lands a chance to make a move.

Having just acquired four supreme treasures, he was not yet proficient in their use and could not unleash their true power.

Although the Thunder God didn't say much, which of the strongest beings in the universe present wasn't a shrewd and intelligent person?

From the words of the Thunder God, one could deduce the cause and effect of the Tomb Ship incident, and everyone's expression changed drastically.

"The legacy has indeed been taken by the Swarm Overlord. Let's go back and report to the Progenitor."

Lord Beizhen sighed; he had long anticipated this outcome.

He would have tried to take it from anyone else, but looking at the swarm of insects, he could only shake his head helplessly.

On the other side, the True God of Burning Flame from the Purple Moon Holy Land had an extremely gloomy expression.

They used two supreme treasures to pave the way and sent 20 universe lords into the Tomb Ship, but they all perished, and even lost the two supreme treasures.

This is also a significant blow to the Purple Moon Holy Land.

Only the third and fourth True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan looked on with surprise and uncertainty. Was this inheritance actually a trap set for their Divine Eye Clan?

Thinking about this, both of them felt a little scared.

If it weren't for Qin Mu's swarm of insects blocking their way, they were planning to personally engage in the battle.

If they were to fall into the trap of the Thunder God, their chances of survival would be slim.

But unexpectedly, by a twist of fate, he survived.

"The Thunder-Clad Demon God was the first to discover the Tomb Ship? No wonder, no wonder Qin Mu had been searching for him all along..."

The founder of the giant axe was also startled, and couldn't help but recall Qin Mu's previous arrangements.

……

Time flies, and a thousand years have passed in the inheritance space for Qin Mu.

With time accelerated ten thousand times, a full thousand epochs had passed.

Thanks to the efforts of the entire swarm, the inheritance of Duan Donghe and the inheritance within the Gem Egg were finally digested.

Having absorbed these inheritances, Qin Mu had an extremely clear understanding of the breakthroughs at each level—Immortal, Universe Venerable, Universe Lord, and Universe Strongest—and even how to continue advancing at the Universe Strongest level.

Even the strongest beings in the universe know far less than Qin Mu.

At the same time, there have been qualitative breakthroughs in how to conceive and create life. Qin Mu even felt that as long as he was given a little more time to try, the genetic level could break through the limit of 10081!

With the inheritance of Duan Donghe and the inheritance of Jiemu Egg, both conventional breakthroughs and divine power flows can be analyzed very clearly.

In fact, these are among the most ordinary and peripheral inheritances in the "Broken East River Lineage" and even the inheritance of the Gem Egg, and have no value in keeping secret.

Although Qin Mu is only a Universe Venerable, he is qualified to guide the Lord of the Universe, and even the strongest in the universe!

After all, the strongest beings in the universe are all like blind men crossing a river; even if they have broken through, they are all still confused.

After all, the experience of predecessors is too scarce to conduct systematic research.

After digesting all the inheritance, Qin Mu appeared in the control room of the Tomb Ship.

"Come!" Qin Mu waved his hand, and a streak of light immediately flew over from afar, hovering in front of Qin Mu. It was an octagonal sign—this was the control core of the Tomb Ship.

Qin Mu easily refined the control core of the Tomb Ship and gained control of it.

The hatch of the tomb ship, suspended in mid-air, suddenly opened with a roar.

Qin Mu's figure flew out from within, and he smiled at the Empress and the founder of the giant axe who were guarding outside.

"I have obtained and mastered the legacy of the Broken East River! Let us return to the primordial universe first, and I will pass on the legacy I have acquired to you!"

The Giant Axe Founder and the Queen flew over instantly, heading towards the open hatch of the Tomb Ship.

"Qin Mu." The founder of the giant axe had just spoken when he suddenly frowned and carefully observed Qin Mu.

Even the Empress, who knew Qin Mu best, was taken aback when she saw him.

What level of power do the Giant Axe and the Empress possess?

It was obvious at a glance...

The Qin Mu before my eyes has changed so much.

That was an inherent quality in his bones. Although Qin Mu was originally extremely good at research, the constant fighting among the insect swarms gave him a violent aura.

But at this moment, the two of them actually felt a sense of peace and tranquility from Qin Mu.

Different experiences can change one's temperament.

When Qin Mu absorbed the entire inheritance of the Broken East River and the inheritance of the Gem Egg, his vision and realm underwent earth-shattering changes, far surpassing many of the strongest beings in the universe.

"It seems this inheritance is extraordinary," the giant axe remarked, "to have brought about such a significant change in you."

"This change gives me a strange sense of peace, and I'm not quite used to it." The Empress was also a little puzzled. For the past thousand years, Qin Mu had been fully engaged in accepting various inheritances and had not communicated with her.

"Hahaha, this inheritance is indeed extremely powerful! From the immortal stage all the way to the limit of the strongest in the universe, everything is within my grasp, even surpassing reincarnation is a piece of cake!"

That's quite a boast!

Both the giant axe and the queen's eyes lit up.

A legacy sufficient to transcend reincarnation!

"Return to the Primordial Universe! I will first break through to the level of a Universe Lord, and then I will hold a sermon within my race to recount the inheritance I have received." (End of Chapter)
