Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Deep underground, the Eighteenth Prince, Chu Tianrui, looked at the intelligence report sent back to him, his eyes filled with despair.

"It's over! The Chu Tian family is finished, the three great imperial clans, and the entire Myriad Demon Universe are finished!"

Chu Tianrui had a masculine appearance, his body was covered with crimson scales, and there was a dark red scale between his eyebrows, with two curved golden horns on his head.

But the prince, who used to be so confident and arrogant, now seemed to have had his spine removed, collapsing to the ground.

He was once diagnosed with extremely thin bloodline, making the path of bloodline cultivation extremely difficult. However, he never despaired and instead relied on his own efforts to embark on the path of the mysteries of the rules.

A million years later, he was only one step away from becoming a great power. Among the many princes of the Chu Tian family, one of the three great imperial clans, he was considered quite good.

But now, it's all over!

Not long ago, an extremely terrifying bloodline pollution suddenly surged from the depths of the bloodlines of 99% of the life forms in the entire Chu Tian family and even the entire universe!

In an instant, he seemed to see an incredibly terrifying giant python!

The giant python was rotting all over, its body covered with eyes filled with malice. Just one look at it could drive a person completely mad. The stronger a person was by following the bloodline path, the more insane they would become!

In just a moment, the dozen or so rulers and thousands of powerful figures who remained in the capital all went mad!

His guards, his friends, and even his loved ones have all gone mad!

Transform into a monster with a rotting body and disgusting eyes!

These monsters hunted the unmutated humans indiscriminately, and also fought each other constantly.

Because his bloodline could not be awakened, he became a Venerable through the system of rules and mysteries.

That's why he barely managed to survive when he saw the rotting giant python in his bloodline.

Then, while the monsters were hunting others, they used the treasure to rush into the mansion and activated the teleportation array to escape to the underground palace that had been prepared in advance.

Thanks to the ancient magic arrays that shield our aura, we are safe for now.

But what truly terrified him was only just beginning.

He originally thought that this was just a disaster that happened in the capital and to the Chu Tian family, but after contacting some friends of the Wanfa Tower, he was horrified to find that the disaster had spread throughout the entire Wanmo Universe!

In the universe of myriad demons, the bloodline cultivation system is the mainstream.

However, no matter what, some people will not be suited to this path for various reasons and will turn to other spiritual systems.

Wanfalou is an organization established by such a group of people.

Through the intelligence gathered by the surviving experts of the Myriad Laws Pavilion, he was horrified to discover that everyone in the entire Myriad Demons Universe who followed the bloodline cultivation system had been infected and driven mad.

Without exception.

Even the three great emperors were no exception.

As the eighteenth prince of the Chu Tian family, he naturally knew that the three major families actually shared a common ancestor—the Progenitor of Ten Thousand Demons!

Legend has it that he created the universe of ten thousand demons, a being of immense power even in the Holy Realm.

At this moment, everything happening in the universe of ten thousand demons made him think of a terrifying possibility: the source of all this might very well be that ancestor!

"No! There is still hope. The Wanmo Universe is finished, but I can go to other universes through the cosmic portal!"

As long as you're alive, there's still hope!

Struggling to his feet, Chu Tianrui looked around.

This is a backup plan he prepared for himself, with all kinds of resources. With these, he might be able to make a comeback in other universes.

The Wanmo Universe is connected to many other universes, and through cosmic channels, it has even directly conquered nine universes!

The system of rules and mysteries he cultivated also originated from other universes.

Rumbling--

However, the moment he stood up, an incredibly powerful soul force swept through the entire underground palace, and even the activation of numerous ancient magic arrays could not withstand it.

"A powerful being? Such immense soul power!"

Chu Tianrui's expression changed; this underground palace was not built by him.

Rather, it was an opportunity he had once had. Even a powerful being at the Dominator level would find it difficult to force his way in, yet he was utterly powerless against this soul intrusion.

"This power doesn't have that kind of madness?"

senior!

Please don't make a move!

Chu Tianrui was initially alarmed, then overjoyed.

"come out!"

In the face of a catastrophe that could destroy the entire universe, encountering a top-tier being might not be such a bad thing.

The passages to other universes are all heavily guarded, and he alone might not be able to break through.

Chu Tianrui quickly emerged from the underground palace and immediately spotted Qin Mu, dressed in a black battle robe, floating in the sky.

"this?"

Chu Tianrui's pupils suddenly contracted; he actually felt a strong sense of favor around this powerful figure!

The universe's blessing!

Why did the universe favor him?

The legendary chosen one?

But amidst this favor, he seemed to hear cries of anguish.

The will of the universe is wailing!

While Chu Tianrui was observing Qin Mu, Qin Mu was also observing him.

The cosmic will led me to meet only a cosmic venerable one?

Is there not even a single surviving ruler of the universe in this universe?

"I need intelligence! Intelligence about the entire universe. I also need the bloodline cultivation system, and even your knowledge of the methods for all cultivation systems!"

Qin Mu didn't waste any words and got straight to the point.

The wailing cosmic will surrounding him grew increasingly urgent, and Qin Mu had little time to waste.

Perhaps because of the destructive mark on his wrist, the cosmic will of this universe has regarded him as its last lifeline.

"Intelligence? Cultivation methods?"

Chu Tianrui was taken aback. This unknown expert had gone to such lengths to find him, only for some intelligence and cultivation methods?

But this is precisely what he possesses.

The two speak different languages, but communication between powerful individuals is completely language-free; the fluctuation of their thoughts is the best form of communication.

Although he is not very strong, he is only a Venerable.

But after all, he is the eighteenth prince of the Chu Tian family, one of the three great imperial families, and has abundant intelligence sources.

Furthermore, because he was unable to cultivate the bloodline rule system, he spent a long time frantically collecting cultivation systems from other universes.

More importantly, the will of the universe was telling me to help him!

This was a situation he had never encountered before.

"Senior, no problem. Please come into the palace for a chat."

Although this place is remote, there are probably quite a few polluters here, and it would be troublesome if they were discovered.

Chu Tianrui immediately replied.

"good!"

Qin Mu nodded. The magic array in this underground palace was somewhat special, but in this brief exploration, he had roughly figured out some of its mysteries. Even if the person in front of him had a problem, he could still forcibly kill him.

In the passage, Chu Tianrui asked respectfully.

"I still don't know your name, senior? You can call me Chu Tianrui, the eighteenth in the Chu Tian family."

Although he was the eighteenth prince of the Chu Tian family, he always respected the strong, especially now that the entire Chu Tian family was gone.

"Qin Mu!"

Qin Mu nodded slightly.

"Senior Qin Mu, do you know what happened outside? Why did everyone suddenly go crazy?!"

Although he had some guesses in his mind, Chu Tianrui couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know either."

But to his disappointment, Qin Mu shook his head.

"Senior, are you planning to leave and travel to other universes?"

Would you be able to take me with you?

I also have some knowledge of other universes, and I would never hold my seniors back.

Although Chu Tianrui was disappointed, he still said it.

"Leave? No, I want to cleanse all the corrupted beings in this universe. Since you are a prince of the Chu Tian family and hold a high position, then stay and assist me."

Qin Mu glanced at him. From the intelligence he had gathered, he already knew that the Ancient Origin Continent was the home of the Chu Tian family, one of the three great imperial clans.

Although Chu Tianrui's strength is a bit low, his status is quite high, so he is still somewhat useful.

"Huh? Clean up the universe? Me?"

……

Deep within the underground palace.

Chu Tianrui led Qin Mu directly to a large hall, which was a library where he stored intelligence and various cultivation methods.

"Senior, the intelligence and methods are all here."

Chu Tianrui wore a bitter expression; he was just a Venerable One!

To cleanse the powerful beings in the universe of corruption?

How dare he!

Tell me, what are the different systems and methods here?

Who are the strongest beings in the universe, especially on the Ancient Origin Continent?

In addition, do you have any magical treasures such as weapons or armor?

The more the better, I need to study it!

As Qin Mu spoke, one clone after another emerged from his body and began to examine all the information and cultivation methods in the entire library.

In just a moment, tens of thousands of figures picked up the block-shaped crystals, their consciousness penetrating them to sense the vast information within.

As he watched the figures emerge from Qin Mu's body, Chu Tianrui broke out in a cold sweat.

In his perception, these tens of thousands of figures were all physical entities, each radiating an extremely powerful aura, and each one was a great power!

Who exactly is Qin Mu?

How come he's never heard of this person before?

Even so, it wouldn't be enough to cleanse the universe of those powerful beings who have gone mad, would it?

Although a powerful being is strong, they are still just a powerful being.

It might be very strong in other places, but in the Ancient Origin Continent, especially in the capital, it's not worth mentioning at all.

"Here are a large number of methods from 21 cosmic cultivation systems that I have collected. Some systems are similar, while others are completely different."

"As for the strongest beings in the universe, the most powerful are naturally the three Void God Emperors."

Next are the powerhouses at the Dominator level, numbering approximately five or six hundred.

I don't know the exact number.

As for the powerful beings of the Ancient Origin Continent, most of them are concentrated in the Imperial Capital. Apart from my father, Emperor Chu Tian, ​​there are nearly two hundred rulers and more than one hundred thousand great beings in the entire Imperial Capital.

Further down the line, there are countless others, such as the Venerable Ones.

However, my father is not in the capital at the moment. He has been away on an expedition for tens of thousands of years and has not returned. Most of the powerful rulers are also not present.

Chu Tianrui hesitated for a moment. Although it was the first time he had met Qin Mu, he told him everything he knew. The universe was about to be destroyed, so this was not some confidential information.

At the same time, he waved his hand and took out hundreds of various treasures.

All kinds of treasures, including knives, spears, clubs, axes, armor, and warships, are readily available.

"A cultivation system encompassing 21 universes?"

Qin Mu was delighted, but he didn't feel much about the powerful figure Chu Tianrui mentioned, which was expected.

Three Void Gods and five or six hundred True Gods—this number was within expectations.

If the original human race in the universe were to survive for several more years, relying on the legacy of the Broken East River and the insect swarm, their numbers might even surpass those of the True Gods.

This force is strong, but the swarm is not without a fighting chance.

As for those not on the Ancient Origin Continent, just like the Virtual Universe Company, at the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company, apart from the Chaos City Lord who leaves an avatar to guard it, most of the universe lords go on adventures in other places.

How many powerful individuals would remain in seclusion at headquarters for extended periods of cultivation?

Especially the bloodline cultivation system, which is extremely fond of combat.

However, the cultivation systems of 21 different universes are an absolutely enormous gain.

With these, the power of the swarm will inevitably undergo a transformation in a short period of time, greatly increasing the chances of eliminating the polluters in this universe.

"Don't worry, I won't let you go to your death."

Qin Mu glanced at Chu Tianrui in a good mood. The will of the universe was quite reliable; the person who guided him here had indeed been of great help.

If we rely on ourselves to collect information bit by bit, we don't know when we will be able to obtain this detailed information and cultivation methods from different universes.

On the other side, several insect hive tyrant bodies also took over the hundreds of magical artifacts.

These treasures are all quite extraordinary. For example, one of them is a blood-red spear. When he took it, he sensed the terrifying sharpness contained within it. In terms of power, it was probably no less than that of an ordinary peak treasure.

As a master weapon refiner, Qin Mu immediately recognized that the spear's forging method was completely different from that in the original universe. The inside was not a secret pattern, but rather a series of ancient and complex magic arrays.

"The ultimate treasure crafted by this universe system?"

If we study and understand it thoroughly, and modify the treasures I brought here, they might be usable in this universe.

By applying this knowledge to other areas, perhaps I will be able to independently forge the most powerful treasures.

Qin Mu thought to himself, according to the classification of laws, the primordial universe belongs to the system of rules and mysteries, and weapons naturally belong to the same system.

Different cultivation systems often have completely different weapon forging methods, but their power is not necessarily weak.

"I know you have a lot of questions in your mind right now."

But I'm pressed for time right now, and I don't have time to explain to you.

I need to digest and absorb this knowledge as quickly as possible, and then start clearing things up externally.

The external situation is not good, and the will of the universe cannot hold out for long.

If the will of the universe descends into utter madness, it will prematurely enter destruction and restart the cycle of reincarnation.

Qin Mu looked at Chu Tianrui. The entire insect swarm network was operating wildly, absorbing the massive amount of knowledge from each crystal and beginning to deduce and learn.

Within the World Mother Nest, the primordial seas were spinning at an unprecedented speed, unleashing towering tsunamis.

"Go and inform the survivors that you can contact them, and tell them to hide as much as possible."

The swarm will soon begin cleaning up the pollution in this universe, and I don't have much energy to protect them.

"Let's go to the capital now!"

"The cleanup is about to begin." (End of Chapter)
