Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

In the Realm of the Void Gods, the Eternal True God Jinhua emerged from the Tower of Inheritance with a satisfied expression.

This wasn't his first time visiting the Tower of Inheritance, but each visit brought him different discoveries, making it impossible to stop.

In that peculiar realm of laws, guided by the Tower of Inheritance, one can unleash the power of laws they have comprehended, and the Tower of Inheritance will then provide the most perfect guidance according to their own level.

It pointed out his various shortcomings in the laws of chaos with great precision.

Then, based on these, a higher level of laws were passed down. It was as if all the mysteries had been broken down and presented to him in a targeted manner.

One inheritance is at least comparable to thousands of eons of arduous cultivation.

"I thought I was only one step away from breaking through to the Chaos Realm, but I didn't expect there to be so many mistakes and oversights."

It is said that when the inheritance and guidance reach their limit, one can even possess the body of other Chaos Realm experts to experience their breakthroughs.

The eternal true god of Jinhua felt immense joy and delight.

To break through from an Eternal True God to a Chaos Ruler, one needs to fully comprehend the eight lower-level laws and the two higher-level laws, and completely integrate them into the Chaos Law.

One in ten thousand eternal gods could achieve this.

A large part of the reason is that many eternal gods simply do not know which of their laws are not perfect, let alone how to integrate and evolve them.

If you are a member of a powerful force, you may receive guidance from a Chaos Realm expert or even a God-King level expert to identify your shortcomings.

Where would an ordinary eternal true god find such a powerful guide?

With the Tower of Inheritance as a guide, it is like having a guiding light. For the Eternal True God of Jinhua, this kind of lone traveler without a backer or background is extremely effective.

"Sigh, the Tower of Inheritance is great, but it's not cheap either. One Inheritance Guidance costs at least a million points, and my savings are simply not enough for even a few entries."

Furthermore, I purchased a secret technique for inheriting the Chaos Realm.

"I'm still too late. If I had come earlier, I might have already successfully joined the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect."

While overjoyed, Jinhua Eternal True God also felt a bit of a headache and annoyance.

His friend, the Eternal True God Tingbo, was of similar strength to him, having only arrived a little earlier and successfully joined the Myriad Beasts Sect as an outer disciple.

Not only can you choose a Chaos Heavenly Stele to inherit, but you also have many other benefits.

Their strength has far surpassed his.

According to Tingbo, the inheritance within the Chaos Stele is no less than that of the inheritance space, and may even be stronger, as it points directly to the Great Dao of the Chaos Ruler and even the God King.

However, when he arrived in Crimson Gold City, the Eternal God of this mere city numbered in the tens of thousands!

This is far more than any other entire Chaos Continent.

Therefore, the threshold for joining the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has also increased significantly.

As an Eternal True God, to join the Myriad Beasts Sect, one doesn't necessarily need to win a thousand consecutive matches in the Slaughter Arena, but at least a hundred consecutive matches are required to qualify.

A winning streak of 100 games is no easy feat.

But this is merely a qualification.

"My strength has improved considerably again. I'll first test it out in the Killing Space of the Killing Arena, and then challenge the actual combat ring!"

After some thought, the eternal true god of Jinhua walked in another direction.

The Killing Space can adjust the strength of its opponents at will. It only needs to treat its past self as an opponent to clearly perceive how much its strength has improved.

This little trick was taught to him by his friend "Tingbo".

He wasn't moving fast, and when he passed some tall buildings, the eternal true god of Jinhua would take a second look.

The Void God Realm has changed a lot recently. He just passed by a tall tower called the Tower of All Things.

This tower contains a peculiar illusion that can enhance one's basic understanding of the Ten Fundamental Laws. Each floor is equipped with a special "Fundamental Beast," and defeating it will grant one "Fragment of Understanding" of the corresponding law.

It's very friendly to low-level cultivators, and the price is much cheaper than the Tower of Inheritance.

Or perhaps it's the special trial ground of the Thousand Faces Corridor, where every step you take triggers a random life simulation, which is of great benefit to tempering your soul.

While these places may not be as grand as the Myriad Laws Pavilion, the Inheritance Tower, the Slaughter Arena, or the Chaos Heavenly Stele, they would be invaluable treasures anywhere else.

He himself had also tried it once.

I have indeed benefited greatly.

Therefore, they are very concerned about the Golden Flower Eternal True God in the Void God Realm and do not want to give up any opportunity to become stronger.

As we were walking, suddenly—

Above Crimson Gold City, an enormous golden banner with radiant edges appeared out of thin air. On this golden banner were characters that emitted dazzling white light.

"Exploring the Wilderness of the Chaotic Continent of Myriad Beasts!"

"Under the leadership of the Myriad Beasts Sect, the Myriad Beasts Chaos Continent will be fully developed."

"Connect four major cities and 168 ordinary cities, achieving complete connectivity."

"Renovate all cities, including Crimson Gold City, and recruit formation masters!"

"Earn points by exploring the wilderness, and you may gain the qualification to join the Myriad Beasts Sect!"

This enormous notice suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the sky, stretching over a million miles in length and width. Even in Crimson Gold City, with its hundreds of billions of inhabitants, one could clearly see the notice by looking up from within the city!

"What is this?"

Jin Hua, the Eternal True God, looked up at the sky in astonishment. His power allowed him to instantly scan all the information.

The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect wants to expand into the wilderness?

A large number of tasks will be released. Completing the tasks will earn you Void God Realm Points, and you may even be able to join the Myriad Beasts Sect directly.

In an instant, he was moved.

While Crimson City is wonderful, its expenses are also outrageously high.

As an eternal true god, he couldn't even afford a large cave dwelling; the price was simply too high.

The sudden influx of a large number of Eternal True Gods and Void True Gods caused prices in Crimson Gold City to skyrocket.

Even with his family's wealth, he was struggling to keep up and planned to hunt powerful beasts outside the city after a while to exchange for resources.

He was considered lucky; some Eternal Gods directly launched raids, plundering both inside and outside the city.

The situation inside the city is better, as the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is suppressing it, and even the Eternal True God doesn't dare to go too far.

But the area outside the city was already in complete chaos.

The Origin Continent is different from the Primitive Universe. All life forms there are born at least immortal. They don't need to eat or drink; they can survive simply by absorbing the energy of heaven and earth.

All they need are resources for spiritual practice.

The vast majority of resources come from exotic beasts in the wilderness.

In other words, the vast majority of cultivators do not engage in production and rely entirely on hunting exotic beasts.

However, hunting exotic beasts is nowhere as fast as hunting other cultivators.

There are naturally many who have designs on others.

Especially in Crimson Gold City, the vast majority of people are cultivators from outside the area.

Chaos is inevitable.

"Haha, that's great! To explore the entire Chaotic Continent of Ten Thousand Beasts, we can accept missions as long as we're in the Void God Realm?"

"The cities are all extremely far apart, yet they built post stations every million miles? That's incredible! How many people would that take to accomplish?"

"Don't be fooled by the fact that the Chaos Continent of Ten Thousand Beasts has four large cities and one hundred and sixty-eight ordinary cities. Even if you include the entire area under control around the cities, it is probably less than one ten-millionth of the wilderness!"

If we were to truly establish intercity hubs as described here, even just one route would require an alarmingly large number of connections.

"The world is about to change!"

"That's a big move!"

"The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is finally going to make a move, otherwise I wouldn't dare to go out of the city to hunt."

"Yes, it's too chaotic. Outside the city, there are ambushes everywhere."

"All post stations should prioritize tribes in the wilderness and bring them under the control of the Beast Sect? With the Beast Sect's protection, wouldn't our tribe be safe?"

"That's not all; all cities need to be transformed, and even a teleportation system needs to be built!"

"Most importantly, as long as you accumulate enough points, you'll have the opportunity to join the Myriad Beasts Sect!"

"Go to the official website, the task list is already there."

"..."

The entire Realm of the Void Gods instantly erupted in excitement, with everyone engaged in heated discussions.

Even the eternal true god of Jinhua was deeply moved and immediately went to the official website of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.

This is a recent release from the Void God Realm, which includes various introductions to the Myriad Beasts Sect.

For example, the Chaos Heavenly Stele!

The Nirvana Holy Body, corresponding to the Heavenly Stele of Life, can regenerate flesh and blood, and a drop of blood can create countless clones, possessing infinite vitality. Upon reaching a certain level of cultivation, one can even comprehend a branch of the Great Dao of the Origin of Life.

Or it could be the counterpart to the Destruction Stele, "The Eye of the End," which allows cultivators to annihilate black flames with their eyes and incinerate laws with their gaze, making them virtually invincible in combat.

The Time Stele: "Eternity in an Instant", the Space Stele: "Dimensional Traveler", and even the Creation and Death Stele: "The Cycle of Creation and Death" which contains different laws, etc.

A glance at the hundreds of different Heavenly Steles made Jin Hua Yongheng True God's heart race, and he wished he could join the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect on the spot.

These celestial steles encompass almost all paths to the Great Dao, including not only the nine supreme laws, but also less common fundamental Daos such as poison, void, and annihilation.

His friend, the Eternal True God "Tingbo", greatly increased his strength because he chose to cultivate on the Life Stele!

Furthermore, joining the Myriad Beasts Sect occasionally provides personal guidance on cultivation from powerful Chaos Realm experts.

There are so many benefits.

"This is an opportunity! We must seize this chance to join the Myriad Beasts Sect, otherwise it will only become more and more difficult!"

Having made up his mind, he decisively clicked on the task list on the homepage of the Myriad Beasts Sect.

Wow!

Suddenly, hundreds of millions of tasks appeared before him.

It encompasses almost everything, from hunting eternal true gods and mythical beasts to transporting materials within cities.

brush!brush!

After selecting several filters such as Eternal God and the area around Crimson Gold City, the number of tasks decreased significantly, but there were still hundreds of thousands of them.

Not daring to be careless, he carefully examined each one.

"Mission: Eliminate the 'Eclipse Dragon Ant' colony, 100 million points."

"Task: Eliminate the Nightmare Dream Ape. 200 million points"

"..."

"Task: Constructing the Formation of Crimson Gold City (Requires a Formation Master to select)."

"..."

"Task: Cultivate Dragon Tooth Rice. (Requires a Spirit Plant Master to select)"

"..."

"Task: Forge a large airship (Requires a weapon refiner to select)"

"..."

The more he looked, the more shocked he became by the eternal true god of Jinhua.

Needless to say, the task of clearing out the Eternal True God Beasts was something he had already guessed, but there were also tens of thousands of other construction tasks!

For example, he clicked on the task of cultivating Dragon Tooth Rice and took a look.

This actually involves having plant masters cultivate plants on a large scale.

He had never heard of Dragon Tooth Rice, but the mission described it as a food that could greatly benefit True Gods and Void True Gods.

It is said that continuous consumption can not only increase the speed of cultivation, but also have a slight effect of activating and strengthening the bloodline.

In addition, there are some higher-end varieties such as the Illusion Leaf Fruit and the Yellow Jade Fruit.

As far as he knew, the Phantom Leaf Fruit had to grow at the intersection of "time vortex" and "space fold", and it needed to withstand the difference in time flow rate and the tearing and baptism of space storms in order to grow.

The leaves of this rare and precious plant display multiple layers of time and space, the fruit resembles a solidified rainbow vortex, and each seed is a miniature time and space model.

Taking it is of great benefit to the soul, and can slightly enhance one's understanding of the fundamental laws of time and space.

For the eternal God, it is an absolutely invaluable treasure.

Can this really be cultivated?

Judging from the mission issued by the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, it was clearly not a joke.

One of the tasks involves venturing into the perilous "Abyss Vortex" to clear out the strange beasts and cooperate with a spirit plant master to cultivate treasures; only top-tier Eternal True Gods can accept this mission.

And the reward points for this task are a whopping 1000 million!

This is equivalent to 10 units of cosmic sand, more than the entire fortune of many eternal gods.

"Someone accepted the mission so quickly?"

Jin Hua Yongheng True God's pupils contracted as he saw that each task in the task list had been accepted.

Immediately, he dared not look any further and quickly selected a few suitable tasks.

Such scenes are commonplace in the Realm of the Gods.

……

"The Primordial Ancestor and the Chaos City Lord have already taken action, and it seems to be working quite well."

At the core of the Void God Realm, Qin Mu looked down.

These points of light, representing individual cultivators, began to continuously emerge from outside the city after the mission was assigned, whether for hunting, clearing certain special environments, or constructing city formations, and so on.

Behind him, the torrent of data representing the various laws of the Void God Realm grew ever larger.

Both the Tower of Inheritance and the Chaos Stele are essentially providing data and nutrients for the evolution of the swarm.

For example, the Chaos Stele is a collection of Chaos Overlord inheritances gathered by the Zerg swarm from the Three Thousand Cosmic Seas. Each time a cultivator advances to a higher level, the Zerg swarm gains an additional piece of data.

When a certain inheritor reaches the pinnacle, his achievements will also propel the Chaos Stele to an even higher level.

If possible, Qin Mu would love for everyone to cultivate and comprehend.

It would be best to spread all the heritage throughout the entire continent of origin.

Only through the collision of sufficiently intelligent minds can more sparks be generated.

But that obviously won't work.

Things that are obtained too easily are not cherished by anyone; instead, people will suspect that there is a trap involved.

The quests issued in the wilderness are not just for facilitating communication between the major cities.

It is also to change the original cultivation environment of the Origin Continent!

"It still has to be the Chaos City Lord as our teacher. Simply hunting exotic beasts won't develop a powerful cultivation civilization."

Qin Mu smiled slightly, never expecting that the size of the spiritual plant he obtained from the Wutong God King would come in so handy.

If the number of cultivators increases, the number of exotic beasts will decrease significantly in a short period of time. Does that mean we should stop cultivating?

In comparison, spiritual plants are much better.

After harvesting one crop, you can harvest another; if all else fails, you can expand the planting area.

This is somewhat similar to the nomadic and agricultural societies that once existed on Earth. When they developed to a certain point, it was inevitable that nomadic societies would be eliminated.

"Luo Feng and the others have completed the first stage of body tempering and are about to begin their operation."

With a hint of a smile, Qin Mu's gaze seemed to pierce through time and space.

At the gates of Crimson Gold City, Luo Feng walked out of the city with an indifferent expression, his target a lurking Eternal True God in the void.

On the other side, wielding a giant axe, he grinned as he charged toward another eternal god.

"It's time to clean up the surrounding area. And while we're at it, let's see how strong Luo Feng and Giant Axe are." (End of Chapter)
