Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

"The exact timing of the outbreak is still unclear; it could be now, or it could be several epochs later."

"God-King level beings aren't sensitive to time, but given our expansion rate, it's only a matter of time."

Qin Mu looked down at the solemn-looking human experts below and said.

"Understood. We can't get involved in this level of combat; the main pressure is still on you."

Should we slow down and give ourselves more time to develop?

"If more insect swarms molt, or if you break through to the God-King realm, then expansion will be much smoother."

The Lord of Chaos City frowned slightly and offered his suggestion.

After entering the Origin Continent, he grew at an extremely rapid pace and has already broken through to the level of Eternal True God.

As one of the most gifted members of the human race, having experienced the golden age of the human race in the primordial universe, he also broke through with an infinite divine body that was 90,000 times stronger.

With the cultivation environment and resources of the Origin Continent, breaking through to the level of Eternal True God was not a difficult task for them.

Not only him, but also Darkness, Peng Gong, and Minglian, the three who were among the first to enter the Origin Continent, have all become Eternal True Gods.

Not to mention them, even Luo Feng, a powerful Eternal True God who broke through to the level of life by 100,000 times, could not participate in the battle at the God King level.

"Pressure? You're overthinking it. The reason I asked you to leave Crimson Gold City temporarily is not because I wasn't confident."

With my current strength, I am not afraid of four or five God Kings, let alone ten or eight, or even experts at the second level of God King.

The only question is whether they can be completely annihilated.

Qin Mu smiled.

"We are not afraid of even experts at the second level of the God-King realm!"

Everyone was immediately excited, and even Luo Feng was shocked. In such a short time, had the strength of the insect swarm undergone another transformation?

It would be impossible to be this strong simply by accumulating divine power and building up more top-tier units.

"Hahaha, some time ago I obtained the treasure land 'Infinite Space' token and gained some powerful inheritance from it, and my strength has already transformed!"

Once you're stronger, you might be able to get in too.

The heritage within this precious land is truly astonishing.

Qin Mu made no attempt to hide anything.

"A treasure land? If that's the case, then we don't need to slow down our expansion; we can continue expanding as planned!" A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord.

Although it was incredible, he was already used to the power of the swarm.

"I need to speed things up too. Morosa is also about to complete his transformation by devouring the forces of the Chaos Realm beasts."

If I break through to the Chaos Realm, I might be able to participate in such a great battle and explore treasure lands.

Luo Feng said excitedly.

During this period, he and the giant axe fought fiercely in several surrounding chaotic states, unleashing the savagery that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.

He even personally killed a Chaos Realm beast in the wilderness.

You grow the fastest through battle.

His will had already reached the Chaos Realm, allowing him to travel to the primordial universe to comprehend the Great Dao of the Origin of Life, and to constantly observe the Great Dao of Destruction within the body of the Beast King 'Morosa'.

With abundant resources, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and he is only a step away from the Chaos Realm.

As for the news about the treasure land, Luo Feng had of course heard about it.

After all, this is a legacy left behind by Yuan!

He was able to slay Chaos Realm beasts with the strength of an Eternal True God because of the 'Ranking Technique'.

If one could enter this treasure land and obtain its powerful inheritance, that would be wonderful.

"Then let us continue to expand! The eleven chaotic states we rule have only just begun to clear the areas around the cities; there is still a vast territory in the wilderness waiting to be developed."

These chaotic states were already quite desolate; even attracting populations from several surrounding chaotic states wouldn't be enough!

The Lord of Chaos City regained his composure.

Since Qin Mu was confident enough, what was there to think about? He just went for it!

"The pre-battle hype for the Genius Battle can begin. Spread the word, promote it to all the surrounding Chaos States, and attract even more people!"

The original ancestor smiled slightly.

"The suppression of the Food Kingdom Chamber of Commerce and its forces can continue! My strength is almost back to the God King realm, at which point I will be able to restrain them to some extent."

At the very least, the Jinwang Palace can protect Chijin City. You can go and fight with peace of mind; leave the rear to me!

The man sitting on the mountain had a cold look in his eyes, but also a hint of excitement.

As the reincarnation of a god-king, he has no bottlenecks in his cultivation. As long as he has sufficient resources, he can complete his transformation at the fastest speed.

"..."

Inside the temple, everyone spoke up without any fear, and no one intended to hide inside Qin Mu's palace treasure.

At most, they would go to the wilderness to hunt exotic beasts.

In fact, the danger is not great for them.

Even if multiple God-Kings wanted to target him, it would be extremely foolish for Qin Mu to directly slaughter their sects and relatives if he himself were still alive!

Unless you have no attachments, you will inevitably provoke retaliation.

Furthermore, the entire territory of the Myriad Beasts Sect is under the surveillance of the Insect Domain and the Void God Realm. Any Chaos Realm that enters is a key target of monitoring by the God King, and the Insect Swarm can react at any time.

"Then let's proceed according to plan. After this battle, our actual controlled territory should be able to expand again, and everyone will still have things to do."

Only with sufficient resources can we go faster and go further!

With your talent, given enough resources and inheritance, it's possible for you to become God-Kings, or even stronger.

Qin Mu also smiled.

Should we halt expansion and slow down development?

He had actually considered the suggestions of more than ten powerful god-kings in the River of Life.

However, after careful consideration, Qin Mu decided to develop at the fastest possible speed.

Cultivation, in essence, is still the plundering of resources!

This is especially true for insect swarms.

Slowing down the pace of development will prevent the acquisition of many precious resources, and will affect the physical training and cultivation of top-tier units within the swarm.

Furthermore, the structure of the Origin Continent is very simple; it is the most naked law of the jungle!

The Chaos Realm allows one to rule over an entire continent.

Becoming a God-King grants control over more than ten Chaos Provinces.

If a swarm has enough strength, it can occupy a large enough territory.

The Snow Realm Ancestor could do whatever he wanted within the Snow Realm's territory, even openly devouring billions of lives without anyone interfering.

This is the privilege of the strong!

Qin Mu, with his transcendent Chaos Realm strength, killed the Shadow Heaven Realm God King under the watchful eyes of everyone and seized ten Chaos States from the King of Yun Kingdom.

If we only develop within these eleven Chaos Provinces, then almost no force will interfere.

This is because it has been tacitly accepted by the powerful figures around them.

However, the strategies devised by the Chaos City Lord, such as the expansion of the Void God Realm and the transformation of the wilderness, allowed the swarm forces to expand at the fastest speed, directly affecting dozens of surrounding Chaos States, which naturally caused turmoil.

If they want to snatch food from the mouths of other god-kings, battle is inevitable.

……

The meeting within the Realm of the Void Gods quickly came to an end.

Walking through Crimson Gold City and looking at this increasingly prosperous city, Qin Mu felt quite pleased.

After several eras of development, this former mining city has become a sacred place for cultivation, and its area has expanded more than tenfold.

Eternal Gods frequently fly through the city, and Void Gods are ubiquitous.

Moreover, these Eternal True Gods and Void True Gods are all extremely powerful, far stronger than other cultivators of the same level in the Chaos Continent.

Especially those few who bore the insignia of the Myriad Beasts Sect possessed an astonishing aura.

On the outskirts of the city, large numbers of airships shuttle at high speeds, carrying various resources transported from other cities.

As the wilderness was developed, cities were no longer isolated islands, and the entire Chaos State burst forth with vitality.

"I wonder how many God-King level experts will come this time. I hope there will be two more! The swarm also needs a battle to test its results."

Except for a small portion left for research, most of the Shadow Sky Mist Envoy's body had been devoured by the Beast King.

The Beast King who devoured the corpse of the God King will allow the swarm of insects to break through to the God King realm in just a few epochs.

If there were more corpses of god-kings, the transformation speed might be even faster.

Moreover, with the inheritances gained from the infinite space, the entire swarm is undergoing a frenzied transformation.

The more Qin Mu cultivated, the more he could feel the power of those inheritances.

In particular, with the perfect inheritance of "Nine Realms of Extinction," as the Beast King began his cultivation, the swarm's understanding of the Great Dao of Destruction was improving at an almost terrifying speed.

As Qin Mu had predicted, the Beast King was indeed being eroded by the Great Dao of Destruction because it had not yet met the mental and physical requirements of the Nine Realms of Extinction.

This erosion is deadly to other life forms.

However, it had no effect whatsoever on the Beast King, whose body was born with the complete Dao of Destruction.

In a sense, the Beast King is the embodiment of the Great Dao of Destruction.

This made Qin Mu suspect that a perfect inheritance like the Nine Realms of Extinction was very likely created for certain special life forms.

The Beast King is a perfect match for "Nine Realms of Extinction".

Perhaps within a certain source world of the infinite primordial space, there exists a perfect lineage suitable for "Time Traveler".

Since there are entities like the Beast King, which are born from the Great Dao of Destruction, it is highly likely that there are also life forms born from the Great Dao of Spacetime.

As for the other special-grade inheritances, they are equally powerful. The insect swarm has already mastered the inheritances of "All Spirits Return to One", "Heart Chakra Millstone", "Eternal Moment", "Abyss of Annihilation", and "World Life Form".

Slaying the Snow Realm Ancestor in infinite space is merely a superficial understanding gained from the destruction and soul path of the Abyss of Annihilation.

In addition, Qin Mu gained reward points by hunting native life forms in the infinite space, which he then used to acquire other inheritances.

For example, the "Infinite Body" which combines life and immeasurable power to walk the path of infinite life, and the "Extreme Annihilation" which combines destruction and extreme point, have both been included in the Rangzhong.

Qin Mu also specially exchanged a legacy for each of the nine supreme origins of the Origin Continent, such as "Nirvana of Life" which completely corresponds to the Great Dao of the Origin of Life, and "Origin of Space" which corresponds to the Great Dao of the Origin of Space, etc.

Integrating with the fundamental laws is important, but if the foundation is not solid enough, it's just a castle in the air, and you can't go very far.

For Qin Mu, he was not short of reward points, nor was he short of swarm units to comprehend the corresponding fundamental laws. The ten legions in the swarm were created for this purpose.

"Several top-tier units in the Zerg swarm have already reached their limits, and this time we can let other legions test their mettle."

The Hive Tyrant is also worth taking action against.

Whether it's the Destruction Demon Ape or the Life Celestial Dragon, they are only suitable for comprehending a single law. The Insect Nest Tyrant is more suited for wielding multiple laws.

The swarm's lifespan has increased by 100,000 times thanks to the Hive Tyrant!

Without exaggeration, this is the most perfect life form in the Zerg swarm, and compared to units like the Destroyer Ape and the Life Dragon, the Hive Tyrant does not have any obvious attributes.

This allows it to better exert all its ability to integrate the fundamental laws.

"Come on! I can't wait!"

……

Within a special space, five enormous figures converged.

"If we want to kill that Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts, we must act as soon as possible! Otherwise, once he breaks through to the God King Realm, it will be too late to make a move."

I imagine none of you would want to see the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts grow too powerful, would you?

The King of Yun, his body covered in blood, spoke in a low voice.

"That's right! We must act quickly. This Beast Sect Master walks the Great Dao of Soul Origin and the Great Dao of Destruction, and his strength is extremely terrifying."

In the infinite space, a few strikes were enough to annihilate my soul!

"What if he breaks through to the God-King realm? That would be terrible!"

The Snow Realm Ancestor had a gloomy expression. After leaving the infinite space, he immediately contacted the King of the Cloud Kingdom to participate in the encirclement and kill.

"His strength is actually that great? Even you, the progenitor of the Snow Realm, couldn't stop him?"

The Xuanhuo God King, whose body was engulfed in golden flames, looked somewhat surprised and uncertain. His strength was only at the limit of the first level of the God King realm, not even as good as the Snow Realm Ancestor.

If this Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts is truly that powerful, then he should consider whether it's worth it.

After all, he didn't have a direct conflict with the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect; it was just that the other side sold too many mechanical treasures, which caused some impact.

It's true that he and the King of Yun are good friends, but that's not enough to make him fight to the death.

"Hmph, 19 fundamental laws are sealed within the infinite space of this treasure land, including the fundamental law of life that I comprehended, but the fundamental path of the soul is not subject to these restrictions."

He just got a freebie.

Moreover, this person is extremely arrogant. It was just a minor conflict, yet he destroyed my clone!" The Snow Realm Ancestor said through gritted teeth.

"Infinite space? I see."

The Mysterious Fire God King understood, but his desire to retreat only grew stronger.

He didn't know much about the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts, but the Snow Realm Ancestor knew very well that an extremely ancient God-King had been killed by the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts.

More importantly, how did he enter the infinite space?

Did they join some powerful force?

He had to consider all of these things.

On the other side, the Azure Lotus God King also frowned.

Is it transcendence in the Chaos Realm, or transcendence in the Chaos Realm that follows the Great Dao of the Soul's Origin?

Such beings are not easy to kill.

The Great Dao of the Soul's Origin can have clones; even if you are no match for it, it is very difficult to kill it.

Even if you kill them, it's almost impossible to prevent them from being reincarnated.

I thought it would be an easy target, but I didn't expect it to be so troublesome.

"Old Ancestor of the Blade Demon, what does your Food Kingdom think? They are blatantly suppressing the Blood Food Merchants Association!"

With the strength of the Food Kingdom, they could easily kill him if they were willing to take action!

The Heavenly Kun Kingdom Lord is a powerful being at the second level of the God King realm. No matter how profound the Great Dao of the Soul Origin may be, it could never be a match for the Heavenly Kun Kingdom Lord. (End of Chapter)
