Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 62 Advancement

"So that's how it is!"

Qin Mu was completely immersed in studying "Basic 312 Methods," absorbing the knowledge within with great eagerness.

"This is how it should be done. My previous methods were all wrong. Just a small change has increased the amplitude so much."

The pictures and text on the crystal wall were photographed by Qin Mu using his tactical watch, translated into Chinese, and transmitted to the mother nest.

The mother nest's computing power is operating at high speed, deducing one human body diagram after another.

The mysteries of each human figure drawing were deciphered, and countless inspirations burst forth in Qin Mu's mind.

As his research deepened, his foundation became more and more solid, and he developed a complete theory, no longer the same as before.

These illustrations of the human body clearly explain various issues in the cultivation of spiritual masters, from simple to complex. They clearly depict some aspects that Qin Mu did not understand or had not thought of at all.

"Earth is far inferior to some of the truly great powers in the universe! And this is merely the foundation of the Meteorite Star lineage."

The more Qin Mu studied, the more moved he became.

At the same time, I have come to understand the importance of passing on traditions more and more.

The ruins provided ample food and water, and Qin Mu, immersed in his studies, ate when he was hungry and drank when he was thirsty, devoting all his energy to his cultivation.

In this completely immersive training, Qin Mu's ability to perfectly control the short spear also continued to improve.

One human figure drawing, two human figure drawings...

With the powerful computing capabilities of the mother nest, Qin Mu's learning speed is getting faster and faster.

It took Qin Mu one day to master the first human figure drawing.

The second human figure drawing also took a day.

By the third day, he was able to fully master both human anatomy drawings in a single day.

The human anatomy diagrams became increasingly complex, yet Qin Mu spent less and less time on them.

Especially as Qin Mu gradually mastered the entire theory, this speed increased at an astonishing rate.

His mental strength amplitude also increased from 36 times.

37 times the amplitude.

……

40 times the amplitude.

……

43 times the amplitude.

……

Just as Qin Mu was completely immersed in cultivation, a message from the Mother Nest caused him to temporarily stop his practice.

"Has the genetic information from the maternal nest finally reached 100% accuracy?"

"More than half a month has passed!"

I glanced at the time on my tactical watch and realized it was already October 15th.

Consciousness descended into a mother hive in City 023, located beneath the subway in the city center of City 023.

Beside it lay a giant fire lizard, nearly a hundred meters long, motionless, seemingly asleep.

The fire giant lizard simply lay there, and no monster within a radius of hundreds of meters dared to approach.

This is the only King-level monster in the swarm. After so much time, its injuries have healed, and it has become the swarm's biggest trump card.

The swarm's successful expansion in City 023 was largely due to its contribution.

"Begin the evolution! The Zerg swarm is about to enter a new era!"

There was a hint of excitement in Qin Mu's eyes.

After two months, the mother nest finally accumulated enough genetic data.

A swarm with a level 1 hive can only survive in small towns, while a level 2 hive allows the swarm to dominate medium-sized cities.

What about the third-level mother nest?

When a large-scale incubation of high-level lord-class monsters is possible, even king-level monsters will be terrified.

But this also means that the swarm will find it much harder to hide.

In the city of 023, which is inhabited by tens of millions of monsters, there are only five level-two mother broods, which can hatch more than 3 Zerg units a day.

During the time Qin Mu was immersed in cultivation, the number of Zerg units in City 023 had already increased to 800,000.

The reason it's 800,000 is because at least 200,000 Zerg units died in the battle against the monsters.

With the covert support of the king-level monster Flame Giant Lizard, these 800,000 insectoids frantically hunted down other monsters.

Hundreds of thousands of monsters are hunted down every day!

This number is still rising.

Even a large city like City 023 cannot withstand such a frenzied hunt by so many Zerg units.

And these are only five level-two mother nests!

The hatching capacity of a level 3 mother nest is at least equivalent to that of ten level 2 mother nests.

Even more terrifying is that a level 2 mother nest can only hatch monsters at the level of high-ranking beast generals, while a level 3 mother nest can hatch monsters at the level of high-ranking lords on a large scale.

This is a qualitative change.

When thousands of high-ranking lord-level monsters appear, even if they merely gather together, humanity will be filled with fear.

Unless Qin Mu actively controls them to kill each other, they can no longer hide.

"A full-scale war with the monsters is about to break out."

Qin Mu understood.

"Evolve! Evolve into a Tier 3 Mother Nest! Make the swarm even stronger!"

The secondary mother nest began to pupate, turning into a giant insect egg that beat like a heart, growing larger with each beat.

"Continue your training! Only when you are stronger can you face the crisis after the swarm is exposed."

Qin Mu regained his composure and continued studying the "Basic 312 Forms".

Nine hours later, the evolving mother nest in the 023 city subway suddenly exploded, transforming into a giant mother nest that was over twenty meters tall and occupied most of the subway station.

At the moment of successful evolution, Qin Mu, who was still diligently studying the "Basic 312 Style" in the ruins, suddenly felt a strong warm current flowing back from the soul connection.

Qin Mu's mental power, which had already reached the peak of the advanced war god level, was further enhanced.

After this strengthening continued for a while, Qin Mu suddenly felt a tremor in his sea of ​​consciousness.

The immense spiritual power within his sea of ​​consciousness suddenly gathered spontaneously and began to rotate.

The rotating spiritual energy spun faster and faster like a tornado, and the invisible spiritual energy gathered into wisps of mist.

As the fog thickened, it spontaneously condensed into a liquid state.

Qin Mu's expression changed slightly upon noticing the changes in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"What is this? This is because my spiritual power is so immense that it's undergoing a natural transformation, evolving into a planetary-level power!"

Sensing the constant changes in the spiritual power within his sea of ​​consciousness, Qin Mu understood what had happened.

It's important to know that the human body is mainly divided into two parts: the physical body and the mental body.

Among them, spirit or soul is further divided into spiritual power and consciousness.

A mentalist is someone whose mental strength is strong enough to project it outwards, which is mental power!

When one's mental power reaches the peak of a high-level war god, which is the peak of the ninth level of apprentice, one's willpower and mental power can reach a certain level and then break through to the planetary level.

Willpower and mental strength are like a commander and his soldiers.

Qin Mu had no shortage of mental power; the swarm of insects was constantly providing feedback, and his mental power was continuously increasing.

And Qin Mu is equally not lacking in willpower.

Although it hasn't been long since Qin Mu arrived in the Swallowed Star world, he has been extremely steadfast on his cultivation path, practicing like an ascetic.

Every day, he studies the power exertion of martial artists and the manipulation of mental energy by spiritual masters, or he fights various monsters in the wilderness.

Even during my free time, I study biology to enrich my mind.

Are you tired? Is it tough?

Of course it's tiring! But Qin Mu enjoys it.

The thrill of constantly improving one's strength is far beyond what one can experience by indulging oneself in sensual pleasures.

Moreover, as the ruler of the swarm, possessing the entire swarm, his will is naturally incredibly strong.

A typical ninth-level apprentice can only control four or five hidden weapons. More skilled ones can control eight or ten.

But what about Qin Mu? He was able to perfectly control 36 short spears before even entering the ruins.

After these days of research and study, we have reached 49, which means the amplitude has reached 49!

This is stronger than many star-level or even cosmic-level mental masters.

It is important to know that Luo Feng later obtained the Sky Shuttle, which has three major forms.

The third form, the ultimate form of the Sky Shuttle, requires reaching the cosmic level, possessing one's own domain, and having an amplitude of 48 to cultivate.

Qin Mu's mental energy amplitude has reached the requirements of the third form amplitude!

How terrifying this is.

When willpower and mental strength meet the requirements, there are three ways to break through to the planetary level.

The first option is to wait for an opportunity to arise; perhaps a breakthrough will come when one gets emotional.

The second type is when one's consciousness reaches its limit, leading to a natural breakthrough.

The third method is to use secret techniques, which is also the way most spiritual practitioners in the universe break through.

Qin Mu belongs to the second type; his mental strength and willpower have reached their limits, so he naturally broke through.

As consciousness returned to the sea of ​​consciousness, the tornado formed by mental power continued, with more and more mist gradually gathering into a large mass of crystal-clear liquid at the very center of the storm.

Enveloped in mist, the crystal-clear liquid gradually solidified, eventually transforming into a crystal-like sphere.

"boom--"

The moment the crystal-like sphere successfully solidified, a storm erupted in Qin Mu's sea of ​​consciousness, as if a massive explosion had occurred, spreading throughout the entire sea of ​​consciousness before suddenly contracting, absorbing all the mist into the crystal sphere.

The sea of ​​consciousness continued to tremble, the storm disappeared, and all the fog vanished, leaving only the luminous sphere at the very core of the storm's center.

"We did it!"

When the sphere of light finally stabilized, it began to rotate automatically like a planet, radiating a magnificent glow.

An invisible and strange fluctuation emanated from the sphere of light.

This power permeated Qin Mu's entire body, eventually spreading outwards.

The moment this power spread into his body, Qin Mu's body underwent an unprecedented change.

His body, from the inside out, from his internal organs, muscles and bones to his blood and skin, was trembling violently and undergoing fundamental changes.

Not only the body structure, but even the deepest genes are rapidly decomposing and recombining.

"This feeling is so amazing, so wonderful!"

Qin Mu closed his eyes, sensing every change in his body.

That is a leap in the essence of life.

It's an evolution at the level of life!
