Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

"Jianshuize, I intend to entrust the management of Jianshui City to you. What do you say?"

In the former Crimson Gold City Lord's Mansion, Qin Mu sat upright in his chair, looking at Jian Shuize and smiling.

"Teacher, shall I manage this?"

Jian Shuize was stunned, and his face immediately filled with fear.

He immediately knelt down on the ground.

Having endured the excruciating transformation, his strength, enhanced by his bloodline, is more than ten times greater than before.

But he was filled with fear of Qin Mu.

Bloodline enhancement!

He is the eternal God, not one of those ignorant weaklings in the wilderness, who knows how terrifying this power is.

Throughout the entire Origin Continent, the path taken by bloodline cultivators is to explore their own bloodline.

No one has ever integrated the bloodline of a mythical beast into themselves before!

Otherwise, the ultimate destination of the bloodline path of cultivators of all races on the Origin Continent would not be the Chaos Ruler.

Mythical beasts can break through to the God-King realm with the help of their bloodline!

"Why are you kneeling down? I don't have time to manage Crimson Gold City. Of course, there will be swarms of insects mining the ore outside the city."

Qin Mu looked at the stream and shook his head.

Jian Shuize's talent is quite good; combining the bloodline of the exotic beast "Thunder Dragon" with his own bloodline is itself an attempt.

Before this, where were the test subjects for him to experiment on?

Fortunately, Jian Shuize survived and joined the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, which consisted of only one person.

He played a significant role in opening up the situation in Lin Yuan Chaos State.

Qin Mu then accepted him as a disciple under a nominal name.

Jian Shuize clearly didn't know anything about Qin Mu, and Qin Mu could roughly guess the mess of thoughts in his mind without even thinking about it.

The living environment on the Origin Continent was much harsher and more exposed than that of the primitive universe.

"Remember, you are my disciple. Even though you are only a nominal disciple, you must learn to stand tall."

I have neither the time nor the interest to manage Crimson Gold City.

Therefore, these tasks will be left to you.

Later, perhaps someone will share the burden with you, but for now, it's all yours.

Qin Mu looked at Jian Shuize kneeling on the ground and said very bluntly.

"Without minerals, Crimson Gold City will soon decline, so I will give you some treasures to sell."

A treasure used to enhance one's bloodline.

Although the Jian Shui family was wiped out, you have occupied Chijin City for a long time, so I believe you must have some means of survival.

The specifics of the operation are yours to handle; you can consider this a test for you.

Qin Mu's voice was calm, but it sounded like a thunderclap in Jian Shuize's ears, exciting the terrified Jian Shuize.

"Thank you, Teacher!"

I originally thought I was just a test subject for drug trials, an excuse to seize Crimson Gold City.

Having achieved his goal, perhaps he should accept the arrival of death.

He was already satisfied to have witnessed the destruction of the Crimson Gold City Lord and the five major families.

Fear is simply an instinctive reaction to death.

But now he realizes he may have been overthinking things.

This immediately excited him.

test?

He is currently a disciple under a nominal title. If he passes the test, wouldn't he have a chance to become a direct disciple?

How could he not be excited?

Even a centipede with a hundred legs does not die easily. Just as Qin Mu said, although the Jianshui family was wiped out, some of the weaker members of the family still wandered outside.

The connections I made before are still there.

With his strength increased tenfold and the insect swarm's force suppressing the city, managing Crimson Gold City would be no difficult task at all.

"Teacher, you want to sell a bloodline enhancement treasure. What kind of treasure is it? What are its effects?"

If it were a treasure like the one the disciple possessed, which fused with other bloodlines, it would likely cause a great upheaval.

Jian Shuize said with some hesitation.

"I understand your concerns. They are just bloodline enhancement potions, and their effects are better than ordinary bloodline enhancement treasures."

Qin Mu sighed softly.

There was a time when he had high expectations for the Origin Continent.

But when I actually arrived, I was honestly a little disappointed.

Aside from being stronger than the original universe, they are far inferior in every other aspect.

The primordial universe was home to billions of races, including unique and powerful races such as the Machine Race, the Insect Race, and the Crystal Race, as well as special life forms. The clashes between different races made the primordial universe magnificent and turbulent.

Human beings also have many opportunities.

When they first entered the universe, Qin Mu, Hong, Thor and the others were discovered by the Virtual Universe Company.

Even without joining, they still obtained the Bloodline Enhancement Potion, a treasure that could change their very foundation.

At that time, they were only at the planetary level.

Within the primordial universe, there are virtual universes, talent selection and training mechanisms such as the Genius Battle.

Within the human race, there are several major forces, such as the Virtual Universe Corporation and the Giant Axe Arena. Although there are some unpleasant things between them, the overall situation is quite good.

But what about the continent of origin?

Theoretically speaking, the geniuses and powerful individuals who have survived the cycle of reincarnation in the three thousand primordial universes should have established an even more vast and incredible civilization.

What sparks will be born from the collision of three thousand primitive cosmic civilizations?

Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.

But actually, no.

The continent of origin is very ancient, but almost all that remains is its antiquity.

Not to mention the incredible secret technique of virtual universes that can cover the entire continent, the powerful beings of the Origin Continent actually communicate using divine thoughts.

Those with more advanced skills might even utilize communication artifacts.

For example, the Dark Palace communication token of the Flame Branch Guild...

This thing was obsolete in the primordial universe.

Although the continent of origin also has kingdoms, they are essentially the most ancient city-state system, with each city in the wilderness isolated from the others.

There's no connection between them, let alone a virtual universe where communication is possible at any time; they don't even have teleportation arrays...

They are almost like isolated islands.

There are even wilderness tribes that rely on hunting!

Does the Origin Continent lack the technology of the primitive universe?

How is that possible?

The virtual universe at its peak is also a true mystical method. In the world of Jin, there is a military world with even stronger equipment than the virtual universe.

That's a virtual universe that you can enter directly in your real body!

Teleportation arrays are not anything unusual.

However, these things are almost never seen on the continent of origin.

It's all about fighting! Fighting!

They fight each other, plunder treasures, go on adventures, and explore treasure troves.

Aside from spiritual practice, there is almost nothing else to be seen.

In such a powerful region, the main source of income for large cities is actually poll tax!

They relied on weaker true gods to enter the city and buy living time, and on selling cave dwellings...

This is undoubtedly ridiculous.

Bloodline enhancement potions existed even in the primordial universe.

This kind of thing, which is very common in the primordial universe, is almost never studied on the Origin Continent.

Although bloodline cultivation is the mainstream practice on the Origin Continent, more than half of all life forms follow the bloodline cultivation path.

When Mingming broke through to the level of a true god, he needed to study billions of life forms, and even non-life forms such as minerals.

Study all matter, absorb excellent structures, and strengthen yourself.

Thirty thousand times, sixty thousand times, or even an infinite divine body.

This will lay a solid foundation.

But after becoming a true god and transforming from a divine body back into a flesh and blood being, he completely gave up this ability.

In Qin Mu's view, this is an excellent bloodline cultivation system.

Absorb the essence of the bloodlines of billions of races to create the strongest bloodline.

This is the flow of divine power!

A divine power stream even more powerful than the laws of nature!

It's not just because the divine body is powerful, but also because following the divine power flow allows one to simultaneously comprehend the laws!

The higher the level of life, the easier it is to comprehend the laws.

This is also why, although the number of special life forms in the primordial universe is small, their status is extremely high.

Upon arriving at the Origin Continent, bloodline cultivation relied entirely on one's own talent.

It belongs to a school of thought that is looked down upon and only those with poor talent would choose to follow.

The rule-based school of thought has regained its mainstream status.

It's clear that the Divine Power Path and the Law Path can be cultivated simultaneously!

What's the difference between bloodline and divine power?

The strange beast is right there!

The land is teeming with strange beasts whose bloodlines are far stronger than those of cultivators from all races. If one were to absorb the superior bloodlines of these strange beasts like the Divine Power Stream...

Then, by using one's bloodline talent to better comprehend the laws, shouldn't it be easier to become a strong person?

"Too outdated! Too distorted!"

Qin Mu sighed inwardly.

Why did the Origin Continent lead to this situation?

Is it because of the two ancient kingdoms?

As the most powerful force, they occupied the best territory on the Origin Continent, and this was the case within their own borders.

The two ancient kingdoms were too powerful.

Later entrants can only abide by their rules; there is simply no room for change.

The supreme god-king is too powerful!

The structure of the Origin Continent is entirely the result of human suppression, forcing billions of races to fight each other like poisonous insects.

To obtain this precious heritage, one must become a dog of the two ancient kingdoms.

Let's start making changes now.

Qin Mu had no pity for the billions of races, but he was even more disgusted by the actions of the two ancient kingdoms.

This is a cancer!

A malignant tumor needs to be eradicated!

"Besides bloodline enhancement potions, there is also a communication network, which I call the Virtual God Realm, a virtual world."

Within the Chaos Continent of Lin Yuan, it can be used for communication.

However, there's no need to promote the Void God Realm for now. Familiarize yourself with it first, then develop a detailed plan before proceeding.

Looking at Jian Shuize, who had already stood up, Qin Mu had a blood-red potion and a metal bracelet in his hand.

"Yes, teacher! I will certainly not let you down!"

Having received the medicine and the metal bracelet, Jian Shuize was filled with fighting spirit.

He gave Jian Shuize some more instructions, and as he watched him leave, Qin Mu's thoughts wandered.

Sending Jianshuize to do these things is not only a test for Jianshuize, but also a test for Qin Mu on the Origin Continent.

If successful, it will not only bring massive resources to the insect swarm, but also harvest the bloodline and wisdom of all living beings on the Origin Continent!

Where can I buy Bloodline Potions while mining to quickly obtain resources?

Collecting the bloodlines of exotic beasts yourself is nowhere near as fast as having the creatures of the Origin Continent willingly offer up their own bloodline genes.

However, the Origin Continent is not the original universe.

Without the Lord of Chaos as his teacher to shield him from the wind and rain, and without the founder of the Giant Axe to protect him, he had no one to guide him.

Everything must be done with utmost care.

……

Surrounding the primordial universe are numerous smaller universes, the largest of which is undoubtedly Qin Mu's cluster of smaller universes.

Each of the 10081 miniature universes has a diameter of 120 billion light-years.

Qin Mu's small universe cluster was absorbing chaotic energy at maximum efficiency and converting it into divine power, which was then transmitted to the heart of the true god within it, allowing many top-tier divine bodies in the swarm to grow rapidly.

Qin Mu's time as an Eternal True God is too short. Although he can rely on the sharing of the swarm's divine power to concentrate his divine power on one unit, he has only managed to condense three top-tier units so far.

The swarm is far from reaching its maximum potential.

Inside one of Qin Mu's miniature universes.

Inside the giant mother nest.

Qin Mu, the Empress, Luo Feng, the Primordial Ancestor, the Giant Axe, and the divine incarnations of human powerhouses such as the Chaos City Lord and the Dark True God gathered together.

"I have survived the cycle of reincarnation and have now barely managed to stand on my own two feet."

The world after reincarnation is vast, and my swarm is spreading outwards. It will take some time to fully penetrate it.

After some time, if you wish, you can consider attempting to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

Looking at the four who had already broken through to the True God realm—the Empress, the Giant Axe, the Primordial Ancestor, and Luo Feng—Qin Mu spoke.

Then he looked at the Lord of Chaos City, the Dark God, and others.

"As for the teachers, you have not yet broken through to the True God level. You can wait until the primordial universe is destroyed and your strength can no longer be improved before considering it."

The primordial universe was a cradle, making it almost impossible for powerful beings like the Empress and the Giant Axe to improve their strength.

The environment there was no longer suitable for their spiritual practice.

Only by passing through the cycle of reincarnation can one's strength be rapidly increased.

They haven't yet passed through the cycle of reincarnation, and due to the supreme rules, Qin Mu can't say many things, but that doesn't prevent him from making some arrangements.

"You've established a firm foothold? That's good!"

A look of relief appeared on the Queen's beautiful face.

Due to the flow of time, several decades had passed since Qin Mu entered the cycle of reincarnation in the original universe.

Qin Mu and Zuo Shan Ke went through the cycle of reincarnation together, but Zuo Shan Ke's miniature universe soon collapsed.

Even though powerful figures like Empress Luo Feng and Giant Axe knew in advance, they were still shocked. Those universe lords who were unaware of the situation were even more nervous.

Fortunately, Qin Mu's small universe cluster remained unchanged and had become a sacred place for humanity, which put the human race's powerful members at ease.

"Great! Even with three thousand cosmic seas to train in, my strength has almost stagnated."

I've long wanted to venture into the cycle of reincarnation and encounter more powerful beings!

A hint of excitement appeared on the rugged, savage face of the giant axe-wielding man.

With the vast amount of heritage collected by the insect swarm across the three thousand universes, and the trials of the World Beasts, although he did not ultimately enslave the World Beasts, his will underwent a transformation, and he stepped into the realm of the Eternal True God.

But since then, his strength has improved very slowly.

"Haha, Brother Mu! Then I'll go make preparations. I'm really getting tired of the universe."

Luo Feng also burst into laughter.

With the resources of three thousand cosmic seas, the Beast King Morosa, whom he enslaved, grew very quickly and was only a hair's breadth away from the realm of the Eternal True God.

He himself had achieved a breakthrough of 100,000 times and also possessed the Lieyuan Technique.

With such strength, he has long been invincible in the universe and can only spar with human powerhouses. He is eager to try his luck in the cycle of reincarnation.

"I'm still lacking. After all, I've been suppressed for too long. My miniature universe is still evolving, and it will take some time before I can reach my peak."

The progenitor shook his head slightly. He had no shortage of inheritance, but it would take a very long time for his miniature universe to transform from its initial state to its normal state.

"No rush, I'm just letting you know in advance. I'm about to break through too, and it'll be safer after I do." (End of Chapter)
