Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

"It's up to you whether you want to accept this mission. It involves traveling to another source world and eliminating a parasitic, chaotic life form that has invaded it!"

"This is a true primordial life form, completely different from the polluted entity that existed in the previous Wanmo Universe."

Of course, under the suppression of the source world, these parasites can only exert the strength of the Chaos Realm Transcendence at most.

However, a naturally born, chaotic life form is extremely dangerous.

Even if you are suppressed to the Chaos Realm, the possibility of your death is very high. Even if you have endless swarms of insect clones, your mind and will may still be corrupted.

It was even usurped by that primordial being!

Therefore, this mission is not mandatory.

A naturally occurring, primordial life form? A truly primordial, primordial life form?

On the Origin Continent, Qin Mu also secretly purchased some scales and armor of creatures with the Hunyuan bloodline, especially after joining the Mother River of Life, which greatly broadened his purchasing channels.

However, the insect swarm's research on the Hunyuan bloodline is still at a very superficial level.

Qin Mu was very clear about the polluting effect of Hunyuan life on bloodlines. The group of mad god-kings in the Thunder Ancient Kingdom were the best example. Even among emperors, there were many who were insane.

When Qin Mu heard about another source world, and that those naturally born chaotic beings would also be suppressed to the Chaos Realm, his breathing became rapid.

It wasn't fear, it was excitement!

die?

He was never afraid of death.

They had been looking forward to a real challenge.

Both sides are at the Chaos Realm, so what is there to be afraid of?

With the many fundamental laws and powerful inheritances mastered by the insect swarm, he fears no one in the Chaos Realm!

"I'm willing to accept the test!"

Qin Mu answered without hesitation.

"Very good! Going to another source world will also be of great help to you. For example, your cultivation of the Nine Realms of Extinction will allow you to go further on the path of destruction."

The same applies to other traditions.

Even within the same Dao, there are subtle differences between different worlds of origin.

This will be a tremendous opportunity for you.

Jin showed a satisfied expression.

If Qin Mu chooses to refuse, he will not force him, but he will not pay special attention to him again from now on.

It is even less likely that an opportunity will be granted.

The destruction of the demon race is a matter of life or death!

Of all the lord-level powerhouses, he is widely recognized as the most insane.

"Your strength is not enough right now, and your mental will is far from strong enough. Your mental will must at least reach the ultimate level of God King, and it would be best to surpass God King before you go."

Otherwise, death is certain!

Once you're ready, notify me through the Mark of Destruction. I will then send you to that source world.

If you pass this test, the reward will be substantial.

More generous than you can imagine!

This is information about the enemy you are about to face. Prepare well.

This period shouldn't be too long; ideally, it should be before you break through to the God-King level.

As he spoke, a beam of light appeared in Jin's hand and flew to Qin Mu's front, his body gradually dissipating.

"Information about the innate, primordial life form?"

Qin Mu reached his hand into the light, and a flood of information rushed in.

After a long while, Qin Mu took a deep breath after sorting through all the information.

This is a naturally occurring, primordial life form known as the Abyssal Alien.

Among the alien races of the abyss, there exists a being known as the Mother of Aliens.

It can produce hundreds of millions of offspring at once. Although these offspring are weak, they possess an extremely powerful ability—parasitism.

In their larval stage, the Abyssal Alien does not have a fixed form.

During this period, they only possessed one talent called parasitism.

Just as a swarm gains the ability to become formless and invisible when it has 100,000 times more life, this ability is extremely adept at concealing itself.

Through the mind network, the Mother of Aliens can control all Abyssal Alien larvae, directing them to fight, parasitize, and so on.

When they invade the source world, they can quickly integrate into it through their innate ability to parasitize, finding a suitable host to parasitize within.

Before parasitizing, their traces can be detected through some conventional methods, and the source world itself can also mark them, guiding the life forms of the source world to kill them.

Like wondrous creatures in the primordial universe, the source world itself is extremely disgusted by these alien parasites.

But once it successfully parasitizes...

The abyssal alien larva can perfectly mimic the host's life fluctuations through its innate ability, thus deceiving the source world's will scan.

It would be extremely difficult to find them again.

Because their parasitism is not simply flesh-and-blood parasitism.

It can even achieve soul parasitism, and even mental parasitism!

If one is not careful, even a god-king level expert can be parasitized and controlled.

As naturally occurring, primordial beings, these parasitic species possess a mental will that surpasses that of a god-king, even in their larval stage.

This is why Kim Il-sung repeatedly emphasized the need to elevate one's mental and spiritual will.

Although under the suppression of the Origin World, all techniques are restricted to the Chaos Realm level.

However, mental manipulation is inherently extremely strange. If one is secretly influenced by the opponent while they are hiding nearby, even a God-King level expert is highly likely to fall victim to it.

Leaving aside other places, in the Origin Continent alone, there are many powerful beings, including God-Kings and even Emperors, whose bloodlines have been corrupted during cultivation.

If this is the case for ordinary Hunyuan bloodlines, how much more so for this parasitic group.

The swarm is already extremely large, and it is led by the will of the swarm. If one is infected by these parasites into the soul network, the chances of being infected are very high.

If they are parasitized in large numbers without being noticed, the will of the entire swarm may be affected.

"The innate chaotic life form is indeed terrifying, even though it is suppressed within the Origin World."

If this were in the infinite primordial space, the current insect swarm wouldn't even be qualified to fight the other side.

It can even parasitize the soul and the will of the mind!

Qin Mu was deeply shocked.

As expected, compared to the infinite primordial space, the Origin Continent was merely a cradle.

In that vast world, there are infinite possibilities.

And this is still the most primitive form of the Abyss Alien.

Once inside a host, the Abyssal Alien Larvae rapidly absorb the host's superior bloodline, influencing and greatly enhancing the host's talents.

Its host can reach the transcendent level of the Chaos Realm in a very short time when cultivating and comprehending any kind of fundamental law.

The abyssal alien life form is too high-level. For a naturally primordial life form, comprehending the laws of the Chaos Realm or even the God King Realm is as simple as eating and drinking.

Furthermore, during this process, various different abyssal aliens can be born based on the form of the parasitic host.

However, this doesn't actually have much effect within the source world.

Because the abyssal alien life forms are of such high quality, the life bloodlines within the source world are too inferior for them to absorb.

It often only truly comes into play when it parasitizes other naturally occurring chaotic life forms or powerful cultivators in the infinite chaotic space.

What's even more terrifying is that once they completely devour their host and evolve into adults, they can act as miniature mothers, releasing "Abyssal Erosion" to infect other life forms over a wide area.

All infected life forms will be parasitized by it.

When large numbers of Abyssal Aliens gather together, they can perform an Abyssal Descent Ritual, completely rewriting the rules of that area.

If they occupy more than 50% of the source world, then the entire source world's law system will be rewritten, and all matter will become abyssal, suitable for the survival of abyssal aliens.

At this point, the entire Source World was beyond saving.

Because the Source World will be unable to suppress them, the Abyssal Aliens will unleash the power truly belonging to innate primordial life.

Besides these, there are many different types of Abyssal Xenomorphs, such as special nesting aggregates, space-breaking Xenomorphs, energy-devouring Xenomorphs, and so on.

There are tens of thousands of them that can be counted.

Each one possesses extremely powerful talents and extraordinary abilities in a certain aspect.

"Is this the enemy the swarm will face? Including super parasitic abilities such as mental parasitism and soul parasitism, stealth ability, large-scale pollution, plus the primordial life essence."

Although they are said to have transcended the Chaos Realm, each of these Abyss Aliens should probably be regarded as an invincible first-level God King.

Furthermore, each Abyssal Alien possesses an ability similar to that of the Beast King in breeding warriors, essentially functioning as a walking nest unit.

As for rewriting the rules of the source world, once a large-scale gathering of Abyssal Aliens is discovered, they must be eliminated.

Qin Mu took a deep breath.

This is practically a carbon copy of the Zerg Swarm, a Zerg Swarm born from chaotic life forms!

The difference lies in the fact that these Abyssal Aliens are independent individuals, communicating only through some kind of mental network and being commanded by the Alien Mother.

Therefore, even if the Mother of Aliens is killed, the other Abyssal Aliens will not die, and these Abyssal Aliens will elect a new Mother of Aliens.

"Let's bring it on! Let's see if the Zerg swarm is stronger, or these so-called Abyssal Xenomorphs! If we can absorb their superior genes, perhaps we can take the Zerg swarm to the next level."

Qin Mu's eyes were filled with excitement and fervor.

war!

This is a war fought by the Zerg swarm!

Compared to the Abyss Alien, the upcoming Cloud Kingdom ruler and several other god-kings are utterly insignificant.

"Before heading to another source world, we need to quickly enhance our mental will and improve our understanding of various laws."

The cultivation of "All Spirits Return to One" is of paramount importance!

Only after completing the first level of cultivation and reconstructing the swarm's mental network can security be guaranteed.

Research into the life of the Hunyuan bloodline must be put on the agenda.

At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen the swarm's reconnaissance capabilities and anti-erosion capabilities!

Countless ideas echoed within the swarm network, leading to adjustments to the swarm's original research plans.

Originally, Qin Mu planned to thoroughly study the bloodlines of the alien beasts before beginning in-depth research on the Hunyuan bloodline.

But since we are about to go to war with those chaotic beings, the priority naturally needs to be raised.

"We need to be more aggressive in our actions on the Origin Continent. I need to gather enough resources to breed more swarms."

"The Zerg swarm's mother hive, modeled after the Kunpeng, also needs to be upgraded. This time, it will be a tough battle, and it is very likely to develop into a protracted war."

The Zerg swarm must have a sufficiently secure rear base.

"Before accepting the mission, you should first explore some treasure lands. Even if you can't obtain powerful treasures, you should at least accumulate experience in fighting against Hunyuan life forms."

"The swarm has the Divine Suppression Pearl to enhance its soul defense, but doesn't the other source world have powerful treasures? Don't those naturally born chaotic beings have treasures?"

The swarm's power must be strengthened in every aspect.

"Hmph, Abyssal Xenomorph! Parasitism? The Zerg Swarm can do that too! Massive contamination, reproductive capabilities, the Zerg Swarm is equally adept at that! Let's see who's stronger then."

Qin Mu pondered, a series of thoughts flashing through his mind.

If left unchecked and destruction were carried out across an entire source world, the swarm would not be weaker than these so-called abyssal aliens; it would only be stronger.

"Yes, deal with the King of Yun Kingdom and his group as soon as possible, and then try to explore the treasure land with the God-King level experts in the River of Life."

He had originally planned to go to the treasure land, and after joining the River of Life, he also obtained some intelligence from them.

With all the treasure lands sealed off, entering them would be much easier if experienced god-kings gave one a hand, rather than venturing alone.

Once they can enter the treasure land, the swarm's evolution speed will accelerate further.

But every time you enter this treasure land, it is extremely dangerous.

If one does not demonstrate sufficient strength, why should others bring a Chaos Realm cultivator into the treasure land?

"If this mission succeeds, what rewards will I receive that exceed my expectations? What could it be? For Jin to say something like that, it must be something extraordinary."

Qin Mu had no doubt that Jin could produce some of the most top-tier treasures, treasures capable of causing the insect swarm to undergo a complete transformation.

With each thought, the swarms of insects scattered throughout the continent of origin began to stir.

However, Qin Mu did not become anxious because of this sudden news. The original plan was already the optimal solution for the development of the swarm.

It's just a matter of adjusting some of the priorities.

Jin did not give him a specific time limit, but only told him that it would be best to go before breaking through to the God King level.

……

Inside the royal palace in the capital of Yun Kingdom.

The King of Yun Kingdom sat in the main seat, and the figures of the Xuanhuo God King, the Qinglian God King, the Dao Mo Ancestor, and the Snow Realm Ancestor all appeared.

"You have all successfully refined the Nine-Colored Lotus. Delay will only lead to unforeseen changes. It's time to make your move."

The King of Yun looked at the other four.

"Now that we've received the benefits, we'll naturally take action."

"The Mysterious Fire God King said calmly."

"Go and find out which faction the Lord of the Myriad Beasts Sect has joined. Do you have any clues? Just in case someone leaves and it gets complicated."

The Azure Lotus God King frowned. He tried contacting some of his friends, but he didn't receive any definite information.

"No, it's definitely not one of the two ancient kingdoms. It could be one of the three alien races, or even the River of Life. The Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts never leaves Crimson Gold City, so we have no way of investigating."

The Snow Realm Ancestor was hostile towards Qin Mu, and Qin Mu ruined his greatest opportunity!

As long as it's not one of the two ancient kingdoms, he doesn't care.

These individuals are all highly accomplished God-Kings. When they act simultaneously, they can instantly kill their opponent in a very short time. Even if the opponent joins another faction, they can still kill them before the opponent can react.

"Alright, let's make our move!" (End of Chapter)
