Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

"Let my elder brother take action? Hmph, King of Yun, you've got a good plan! It's not impossible, but what price are you willing to pay?"

The Demon King looked at the King of Yun and sneered.

Because of the existence of the reincarnation technique, even a God-King level expert must maintain a certain level of respect for a Chaos Realm expert.

Especially when they learned from the Snow Realm Ancestor that Qin Mu's mental will had reached the second level of God King, they became even more wary of Qin Mu.

The mental will of a second-level God King means that it is impossible to kill him using mental will or other methods, not even the ultimate God King.

Unless one is certain of instantly killing all of Qin Mu's clones and preventing him from reincarnating, it will inevitably attract a terrifying enemy.

This forced them to consider whether it was worth it to be Qin Mu's enemy!

A god-king level expert is very difficult to kill.

Just like the Snow Realm Ancestor, he was only at the first level of the God King realm, but in terms of sins and killings, he could rank among the top ten in the entire Origin Continent. Why did no one kill him?

Because the Snow Realm Ancestor walks the Great Path of the Origin of Life and possesses countless clones, it is impossible to kill him instantly unless one can use special means such as a mental will that surpasses the level of a God-King.

Or perhaps a hermit sitting on a mountain.

Back then, Zuo Shan Ke was pursued and killed by the three kings of the Food Kingdom, Tian Kun, Dao Mo Lao Zu, and Wu Xiang Lao Zu. Among them, Tian Kun was a second-level God King.

Didn't the mountain dweller still manage to escape?

Defeating a god-king is easy, but killing him, especially killing him completely, is difficult!

Although Qin Mu is not yet a God King, his combat power is definitely at the God King level.

If it escapes or is reincarnated, it will inevitably bring revenge.

They weren't afraid, actually.

The question is whether it's worth it!

Every god-king has gone through countless battles to become a god-king.

"What's the cost? Doesn't his expansion of the Void God Realm cause you any losses?"

I think you've all contacted the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts, right?

How did he respond?

The King of Yun Kingdom roared angrily.

Immediately, the Xuanhuo God King, the Qinglian God King, and the Daomo Ancestor all fell silent.

They did contact the Myriad Beasts Sect, but the other party showed no intention of stopping its expansion and even invited them to join the Void God Realm.

How could they agree?

Some small families, minor forces, and even the Chaos Overlord were overjoyed at the emergence of the Void God Realm.

After all, the traditions passed down through generations are quite good.

But for a god-king level expert, that would be of little use.

They even secretly tried to stop the expansion of the Void God Realm, but none of them had any good effect.

That's why the King of Yun Kingdom was persuaded.

But no one spoke up yet. Clearly, the King of Yun would not easily give in unless he offered a price that satisfied them.

"If you agree to help, I'm willing to offer you a nine-colored lotus! Now, you should be satisfied, right?"

Seeing that no one spoke, the King of Yun gritted his teeth, his face full of pain.

"What? A nine-colored lotus? You actually possess such a treasure?"

The Azure Lotus God King was startled, then his expression brightened with joy.

This is a treasure that can enhance the soul!

Even among god-king level experts, it is extremely precious.

"How many petals of your nine-colored lotus are still unrefined?"

The Xuanhuo God King was also excited. Such a treasure was extremely rare, and he was equally tempted.

"The Nine-Colored Lotus has nine petals, and each petal can greatly enhance the soul. It is even effective against God-King level experts. I have consumed two petals myself and have seven petals left!"

If you make a move, I will give each of you a petal, how about that?

As for the treasures of the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts, they will be distributed according to the amount of effort contributed.

The King of Yun Kingdom had a gloomy face. This was something he had obtained after going through life and death in a treasure land, and it was the most valuable of all his treasures.

Absorbing two halves was already the limit. I originally wanted to use the rest to exchange for other treasures, but I never expected to have to use it here!

He had no choice; with his own strength, it was almost impossible for him to kill the Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.

However, he and the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts had already become enemies, and they would have to fight sooner or later. Therefore, he had to take advantage of the Lord's weakness to kill him in one blow, otherwise the consequences would be endless.

"Hahaha, you should have said so earlier! It's just a Chaos Realm Transcendence? I have a God-King level secret treasure called the 'Scythe of Cause and Effect,' which can kill all of its clones by following the causal lines."

"If we severely injure him, we can kill him instantly, giving him no chance to reincarnate!"

Xuanhuo God King laughed loudly.

While it's true that powerful god-kings are difficult to kill, it's still possible to do so if you have some powerful secret treasures.

For example, the God King Zongfu used a secret treasure that surpassed the level of a God King, the "Causal Wind," to kill several God Kings of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, including a powerful expert at the second level of the God King realm.

His "Scythe of Cause and Effect" treasure is naturally inferior to the "Wind of Cause and Effect," but the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts is not a God-King!

With his full strength at the first level of the God King realm, he has a high chance of completely killing him by burning his divine power.

"Hmph, the Xuanhuo God King truly lives up to his title of the God King of Weapon Refining; he actually possesses such a treasure. I also have a treasure specifically designed to counter soul attacks, called Azure Jade Glazed Glass."

Then let's destroy him together, so he won't have a chance to be reincarnated!

So what if you're a genius?

"The number one in the Chaos Realm is still in the Chaos Realm!"

The Azure Lotus God King snorted coldly.

"I have no objection either. If they dare to provoke my Food Kingdom, then let them perish! I am skilled in the Way of Destruction, so I will severely cripple them, and you will secretly ambush and completely annihilate them."

The Demon Ancestor chuckled and stopped mocking him.

The original plan was to ask for an exorbitant price and then negotiate it down. Since the King of Yun Kingdom has offered a sufficiently satisfactory reward, that is enough.

"Hahaha, it seems that the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts is doomed to die."

I walk the Great Path of the Origin of Life, and my divine body is quite enormous. If anyone comes to my aid, I will intercept them.

"King of Yun Kingdom, you are skilled in the fundamental Dao of space. After you lured out the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts and sealed off the space, even if he possesses extraordinary abilities, he will surely die."

The Snow Realm Ancestor grinned maliciously. He hated Qin Mu to the extreme, and was naturally extremely pleased to have gained a treasure at this moment.

"The Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts is most skilled in soul attacks. The Nine-Colored Lotus has the effect of enhancing the soul. If you let us refine the Nine-Colored Lotus first, we will have a greater chance of success when attacking him."

You don't need to worry about us not taking action; I can swear an oath before the supreme laws.

Seeing that everyone agreed, the Blade Demon Ancestor's eyes flickered, and he spoke again.

"That's right! The Demon Ancestor of the Blade is right!"

"agree!"

Immediately, the Xuanhuo God King, the Qinglian God King, and others all agreed.

"That's fine, then you should make a vow first."

The King of Yun Kingdom remained silent for a long time before finally speaking.

……

Infinite space.

Qin Mu unleashed boundless, extreme primordial laws, transforming them into a spear that slayed a native life form.

"Trial participant: Qin Mu from the Origin Continent"

"Defeat a mind creature once, reward 0.1 point."

"Fighting using a divine-king level secret technique based on the immeasurable and ultimate fundamental laws, new Dao rating: Low. Reward points: 10. You have not yet opened up a new branch of the Dao; you still need to work harder."

Total reward points: 10.1.

Qin Mu sighed. Sure enough, it wasn't so easy to get something for nothing.

Relying on the endless swarm of insects, including the nine supreme laws such as life and destruction, and the ten fundamental laws including the Great Dao of the Soul Origin, Qin Mu created god-king level secret techniques using two different laws.

However, after receiving 100 reward points the first time, the reward points began to plummet after creating the secret technique with the same combination again.

Moreover, its marginal effect gradually diminishes.

"Well, this is enough. If all else fails, we can also absorb some from the earth's essence and the fire's essence."

In fact, apart from the origin of the soul, Qin Mu doesn't want to spend too much time on the other fundamental paths right now.

The price/performance ratio is too low.

The nine supreme laws of the Origin Continent have specific objects for comprehension, making them much easier to understand.

However, if you want to comprehend other fundamental principles, the efficiency is very low.

"I have exchanged one of the nine supreme laws, including life and destruction, along with the laws of the origin of the soul, to create 45 fusion laws. I have also exchanged one of the inheritances corresponding to these ten laws."

Next, I will focus all my efforts on improving my fundamental Dao and break through to become a God-King as soon as possible!

At first, he thought he could exchange for more lineages, including several of the same kind, and compare them to each other so that he could gain faster insights into cultivation.

Because different powerful individuals often have different understandings of the fundamental Dao.

But right now, that condition is clearly not met.

Immediately, Qin Mu sat cross-legged and began to fully comprehend the various inheritances within.

Is the King of Yun following his plan?

Qin Mu didn't really care.

With his current strength, even if he is no match for him, no one can kill him.

Especially after acquiring many powerful inheritances.

That's even more impossible.

Mind and will, soul-slaying?

With the blessing of the Divine Suppression Pearl and the ever-evolving swarm of insect souls, even a powerful being at the Emperor level, let alone a second-level God King, could not achieve this.

The breakthrough to a life form 120,000 times larger, along with the characteristics bestowed by the Supreme Law, made him almost immune to causality, curses, and similar traits.

After this period of transformation, three more swarm legions were successfully generated from the swarm. With the various laws mastered by the swarm, the first level of the God King realm was almost invincible.

The other legions were weaker, but only in terms of divine physique; their understanding of the laws was quite good, comparable to that of a God-King.

What has he to fear?

Even if they can't win, relying on the swarm to remain undefeated is not a problem.

The reason we're not turning against each other now is simply because we don't want the two ancient kingdoms, especially the two legendary progenitors, to pay attention to us too early.

Even so, Qin Mu still felt a sense of urgency.

This forces him to constantly strive to maintain the swarm's rapid growth and acquire more resources, rather than allowing it to develop slowly and covertly.

This sense of urgency does not come from the continent of origin.

Instead, it came from his greatest opportunity, the great lord-level powerhouse 'Jin'!

Qin Mu never forgot that once he passed the test of "Gold," he would become a member of the Destruction Legion.

The mark of the Legion of Destruction on his arm constantly reminded him of this.

However, his current strength is too weak, so he can only be considered a reserve.

To truly join the Legion of Destruction, one must at least possess the strength of a God-King at the Ultimate Realm!

It's easy to imagine how dangerous that world must have been.

Jin had even warned him that after joining the Legion of Destruction, his enemies would be all the naturally born Chaos beings in the Endless Chaos Space, and he would experience countless crises.

Even for those in the reserves, things won't be easy.

Who knows, Jin might suddenly give him a mission at any time, to go to some source world to fight.

If you don't improve your strength as soon as possible, it would be truly tragic if you were to fall due to insufficient strength in an unexpected mission!

Perhaps the Zerg swarm is safe on the Origin Continent, but what about once it leaves?

Who knows how many terrifying life forms might exist in the infinite primordial space?

The perfect inheritance in the infinite space cannot be exchanged by only him; there must be some extremely monstrous and terrifying beings among them.

It's not out of fear of those things.

Qin Mu also yearned to compete with those top geniuses and prodigies.

But before that, he must improve his strength as much as possible to enhance his foundation!

……

Unbeknownst to Qin Mu, at this moment, in the distant, boundless primordial space, several figures were converging, including the 'Jin' he was concerned about and the old man-like 'Yuan'.

"We're afraid we won't be able to hold out in the battle against the Beigu World Cluster. There are just too many of those naturally occurring chaotic life forms; we can't win by attrition."

One of the figures sighed.

The Begu World Cluster is a world cluster where these lord-level beings cultivate cultivators. They paid a huge price to create this world cluster.

The purpose is to cultivate as many talented young talents as possible.

They have devoted a great deal of resources to this goal.

Unfortunately, the naturally formed chaotic life force soon set its sights on the Beigu World Group. They liked to devour cultivators, but they liked to devour worlds even more!

The naturally born chaotic beings are the largest race in the chaotic space, and their bodies are manifestations of the rules.

Even the most ordinary beings are born at the level of a God Emperor, which is to say, they are beings who surpass the God King.

When they attacked in large numbers, even these lord-level powerhouses were powerless to stop them.

Because among the naturally born chaotic beings, there are also naturally born chaotic progenitors comparable to lord-level powerhouses, and their numbers are much greater than those of lord-level powerhouses.

Therefore, in the clash between the two camps, the naturally formed Hunyuan life race generally has the upper hand!

They wouldn't care if some naturally born chaotic life forms died, but the cultivator camp is different; there are too few who can break free from their constraints.

"There are too many of them. Some parasitic types of naturally occurring chaotic life forms are disgusting. They can inject hundreds of millions of eggs into the source world at once, and the eggs will hatch and reincarnate within the source world."

Although they are limited by the suppression of the supreme rules and can only reach the Chaos Realm at most within the Origin World, there are simply too many of them.

These parasitic species are not afraid of causal extermination or other means; they are all independent individuals, and even the native god-king of the source world would find it difficult to completely eradicate them.

If we're not careful, the source world could be completely devoured.

Several source worlds have already been breached through this coordinated attack from within and without.

Another figure also frowned.

This parasitic species is a headache for him too; it's not that he can't kill it, but that he can't eradicate it completely. Moreover, even for lord-level powerhouses like them, their strength would be suppressed to the Chaos Realm when they enter other source worlds.

As for mobilizing support from other source worlds, such as Chaos Realm beings and God-Kings?

They had tried, but even with their help, ordinary God-Kings and Chaos Realm cultivators who entered other source worlds could not unleash their full combat power.

The casualties are too high; it's not worth it.

"I have a rather special little guy here; maybe I can give him a try." (End of Chapter)
