"boom--!!!"

The collision in the starry sky is becoming increasingly violent!

Crimson axe energy tore through the sky, dark red fist shadows shattered the Milky Way, and crimson blade energy incinerated the void. The three figures were locked in combat, and energy shockwaves spread out in layers, smashing the surrounding spatial barriers to pieces, causing countless spatial turbulence to surge wildly.

But her inherent rage and madness did not diminish at all; on the contrary, due to her injuries, they became even more extreme. She swung her long sword more and more rapidly, and each red sword aura was sharper than the last. Even though she knew she was no match for her, she was still fearless and launched a frenzied counterattack.

"Hahaha! Kill! Kill you all!"

Han Min's roar, violent and shrill, echoed throughout the entire starry sky: "Even if it costs me everything, I will kill you all!"

She bit her tongue hard, spitting out a mouthful of blood essence. The blood essence landed on the long sword, and the blade instantly burst into flames. The flame patterns flickered wildly, and a sword aura several times stronger than before erupted from the blade, slashing fiercely towards Jun Yi and Nian Shang!

Junyi and Nianshang's expressions changed simultaneously. Without time to think, they joined forces again, their red axe energy and dark red fist shadows intertwining as they fiercely met the violent red blade energy head-on!

At this critical moment, a hurried and frantic figure suddenly broke through the protective layer of the command hub, like a maddened beast, and rushed madly towards the Cambridge Observatory.

It's Yao Guang!

He finally broke free from the laboratory that had driven her mad. His white lab coat was now stained beyond recognition with reagents and blood, his hair was disheveled and stuck to his forehead, and his eyes were still bloodshot and bright red, but no longer filled with the obsession and madness of before. Instead, they were filled with a burning passion that was almost manic.

In his hands, he tightly gripped two dark red vials. Inside the vials, the dark red liquid churned wildly, bubbling with tiny bubbles and emitting a powerful yet eerie aura. It was the original potion he had created by fusing two Insect King cores with the energy dissipated by powerful beings from all realms, expending all his energy and attention.

In Yao Guang's hand, he held a simple locator. On the locator, a clear dot of light was flashing, which was Ye Fan's location.

He thrashed about frantically, muttering to himself in a rapid, excited voice, as if he had grasped the only hope in the world: "Ye Fan! Ye Fan! I found him! I finally found him!"

"Wait for me! You must wait for me!"

Soldiers and researchers along the way were shocked and worried when they saw Yao Guang's crazy behavior. They wanted to stop him, but they were instantly repelled by the strange aura emanating from Yao Guang and could not get close at all.

At this moment, on the Cambridge Observatory, Ye Fan was still standing there, his body swaying slightly, a trace of blood still remaining at the corner of his mouth. The shockwave from the starry sky was still raging in his body, bringing waves of pain.

"Ye Fan!"

A rapid and frantic shout suddenly came from behind, interrupting Ye Fan's thoughts.

Ye Fan was startled and slowly turned around. When he saw Yao Guang's deranged and ragged appearance, he quickly stepped forward and asked softly, "Yao Guang, what brings you here? Are you alright?"

When Yao Guang saw Ye Fan, the ecstasy in his eyes intensified. He rushed to Ye Fan, grabbed Ye Fan's arm with astonishing force, his nails almost digging into Ye Fan's flesh, his eyes were wild and fiery, and his voice was so hurried that he could barely speak a complete sentence.

"Ye Fan! Listen to me! I've found out! I've finally found out!"

He roared and shook Ye Fan's arm violently, as if trying to instantly flood Ye Fan's mind with all his discoveries. "Those insects! The genetic makeup of those insectoids! It can perfectly integrate with your genes, mine, and the genes of the soldiers who went to the cosmic continent with us!"

"Harmony! Do you understand?!"

Ye Fan's pupils contracted sharply, the astonishment in his eyes instantly replaced by shock. He subconsciously gripped Yao Guang's arm, his voice trembling as he asked, "You... what did you say? The genes of the Zerg, and our genes, can be compatible?"

How is that possible?

The Zerg are brutal and bizarre alien creatures, while they are humans. There is no way that the two could have compatible genes; it's simply a fantasy!

Yao Guang nodded vigorously, a strange and crazed smile spreading across his face, and continued urgently, "It's true! I've studied it countless times, there's absolutely no mistake!"

"And those powerful beings from all realms who died! The energy they released after their deaths didn't dissipate at all, nor was it absorbed by the Insect King's core!"

"It's acceptance! It's being frantically accepted by these two Insect King Crystals! They're like containers, perfectly holding the energy of those powerful beings from all realms!"

As he spoke, he suddenly handed the two vials of medicine in his hand to Ye Fan. The dark red liquid in the vials churned even more violently, and a powerful aura wafted over, causing Ye Fan to frown slightly.

"I used all of this! I used the core's capacity to contain the insect king, the energy of those powerful beings from all realms, and our genes that are fused with the insect race, to create a potion!"

"As long as we inject these potions into our bodies, we can absorb the energy of those powerful beings from all realms and possess the same power as them! We can become like Jun Yi and Nian Shang, shattering stars and destroying worlds with a wave of our hand!"

"Then, we will be able to fight against those powerful beings from all realms! We will be able to fight against the Zerg King! We will be able to protect those around us, and we will be able to lead humanity out of this annihilation!"

Yao Guang's voice grew increasingly excited and frantic. The fervor in her eyes almost burned Ye Fan. She stared intently at Ye Fan, as if waiting for his approval, waiting for him to inject the two bottles of potions that could change their fate together.

But Ye Fan, looking at Yao Guang's seemingly mad appearance and the two bottles of potions in his hand that exuded a strange aura, was gradually replaced by confusion and doubt by his shock.

He slowly raised his hand, not to take the potion, but gently grasped Yao Guang's hand. His eyes were complex, his voice low and hoarse, with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor, as he softly asked, "Yao Guang, after we've been injected with the potion, are we still human?"

One sentence, like a thunderclap, exploded in Yao Guang's mind!

The madness and ecstasy on Yao Guang's face froze instantly, and the fervor in his eyes vanished as if extinguished by a bucket of cold water, leaving only a blank and empty look.

He suddenly released his grip on Ye Fan's arm, his body swaying slightly as if all his strength had been drained away. He subconsciously took a step back, staring blankly at Ye Fan, his lips trembling slightly, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Yes.

He only thought about becoming stronger, finding ways to fight the enemy, and surviving, but he never thought about this question.

The potion incorporates the genes of the Zerg and the strange energy of powerful beings from all realms. Once injected into their bodies, they will become powerful and invincible.

But will they still be the same people they were before? Will they still be the same humans from Earth, driven by a deep-seated desire to protect their fellow human beings?

Will they be corrupted by the Zerg's genes, becoming brutal and bloodthirsty? Will they be devoured by the energy of the powerful beings from all realms, becoming cold, ruthless, and indifferent to the life and death of mortals? Will they completely degenerate into monsters that are neither human nor insect, neither fish nor fowl?

He had never thought about these questions, nor dared to think about them.

All his previous madness and obsession, all his hopes and expectations, vanished in the face of Ye Fan's words, leaving only endless confusion and bewilderment, unsure whether everything he had done was right or wrong.

Looking at Yao Guang's bewildered and lost appearance, like a lost child, Ye Fan felt an even stronger pang of heartache.

He knew that Yao Guang wasn't crazy; he had just been driven to the brink of despair. He was so eager to become stronger and protect those around him that he had become so obsessive and mad.

He didn't ask any more questions or try to persuade him. He simply reached out and gently took the two bottles of concentrated medicine from Yao Guang's stiff hand.

The vial was icy cold to the touch, and the dark red liquid inside was still churning wildly, emitting a powerful yet eerie aura, as if tempting him, as if telling him of the allure of power.

Ye Fan gripped the vial tightly, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force, his eyes filled with complex emotions, his mind in turmoil.

Become stronger, and you will be able to protect everything, have the chance to return home, and prevent those around you from being hurt again.

Becoming stronger may come at a price; it may mean losing oneself, losing one's dignity and bottom line as a human being, and becoming a slave to power.

Just as he was caught in an endless struggle, unsure of what to do, a sudden change occurred!

"Sizzle—!"

A pitch-black void rift suddenly appeared beside Ye Fan without warning!

A chilling and eerie aura emanated from the void rift, and a powerful suction force burst forth from it instantly, like a giant black hole, attempting to devour everything around it.

Ye Fan was jolted awake. Before he could react, his body was locked in place by the powerful suction force and involuntarily flew into the void rift!

"Ye Fan!" Yao Guang was instantly jolted awake from her daze. Seeing Ye Fan being swallowed by the void rift, a look of terror flashed in her eyes. She screamed and tried to rush over, but was violently shaken away by the suction force emanating from the void rift, unable to get close at all.

He could only watch helplessly as Ye Fan's figure was swallowed up little by little by the void rift, and as the two bottles of potion essence swayed slightly in Ye Fan's hands, yet Ye Fan still held them tightly, refusing to let go.

"No—! Ye Fan!"

Meanwhile, the three people engaged in a fierce battle in the starry sky also noticed the strange change happening here.

Just then, a majestic, cold voice, carrying an unquestionable tone of command, suddenly came from the depths of the void, instantly resounding throughout the entire starry sky, drowning out all the explosions and roars.

"Han Min! That's enough! Come back!"

The voice was cold and domineering, carrying an extremely powerful pressure. With just one sound, the entire starry sky trembled slightly, and the fire attribute energy in Han Min's body instantly became chaotic, causing the mockery on her face to freeze instantly.

It's Master!

Han Min's pupils contracted sharply, and the rage and madness in her eyes were instantly replaced by awe. Although she was rage-crazy and fearless, she had absolute awe and obedience to her master and dared not disobey in the slightest.

That's why she had to kill the transmigrators, because it was a task assigned by her master.

She glared fiercely at Jun Yi and Nian Shang, a flash of resentment and murderous intent in her eyes, and said through gritted teeth, "Consider yourselves lucky! If I ever see you again, I'll tear you to pieces!"

Having said that, she didn't hesitate any longer. With a swift movement, she sped towards the depths of the void, not daring to linger for a moment, as if afraid that if she was even a step too late, she would be punished by her master.

Junyi and Nianshang did not stop their attack just because Han Min stopped.

"Trying to leave? Leave your life behind!" Jun Yi roared, a resolute glint in his eyes. He moved to chase after Han Min, the giant axe unleashing red axe energy once more, aiming to kill Han Min in one fell swoop.

Nian Shang also moved at the same time. His dark red aura surged instantly, and his figure moved like a ghost, quickly rushing towards Han Min, trying to cooperate with Jun Yi to stop Han Min.

Just as they were about to catch up with Han Min, a gentle, calm, yet undeniably authoritative voice came from the depths of the void once more, instantly resounding throughout the entire starry sky and reaching the ears of Jun Yi and Nian Shang.

"Junyi, Nianshang, come to Master."

The sound instantly calmed the murderous intent and impatience in Junyi and Nianshang's hearts, causing them to freeze in their tracks as they were about to take a step.

Master!

Junyi and Nian Shang's pupils contracted sharply, and the killing intent in their eyes vanished instantly, replaced by deep awe and surprise. They turned around abruptly and looked into the depths of the void, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Their master is Xiaoyaozi!

That mysterious and unfathomable master, who led them on the path to becoming strong and protected their growth, has actually descended!

As soon as the words fell, a white figure slowly emerged from the void.

The man was dressed in a pure white Taoist robe. He had a handsome face and a calm demeanor. His long hair reached his waist and flowed in the wind. There was no energy leaking out of his body, but he had an otherworldly and ethereal aura that seemed to disregard all things. He was as if he were untouched by the dust of the world, like a banished immortal from the heavens. Just by quietly floating there, he gave people an invisible pressure that made the entire starry sky quiet.

His eyes were gentle and profound, like a vast starry sky, as if they could see through everything in the world and all the secrets of people's hearts. When his gaze fell on Junyi and Nianshang, a gentle smile flashed in his eyes, carrying a hint of concern that was not easily noticed.

It was none other than Junyi and Nianshang's master—Xiaoyaozi!
