"These inherited remains of the 'Insect King' become, to some extent, proof of the mandate. If the 'King Insect' that inherited the remains unexpectedly perishes, a new 'King Insect' will be born as long as another silverfly inherits the remains."
"These newly born 'Ohmu' are referred to as second-generation, third-generation, and even fourth-generation Ohmu, to distinguish them from the first-generation Ohmu."
Hearing this, Lin Yinzhou understood, and he changed the subject, asking a question.
"Which part of the 'Insect King's' remains did this 'Breeding King Insect' inherit?"
"It is speculated to be the heart of the 'Insect King.' Furthermore, some schools of thought believe that, compared to other 'King Insects,' the 'Breeding King Insect' may be the closest to the 'Insect King.'"
Hearing Lao Jing's answer, Lin Yinzhou raised an eyebrow slightly.
Good heavens, it's the first generation of the King Insect, the Heart of the "Insect Emperor," and the one closest to the "Insect Emperor." This buff is stacked to the max. No wonder Amber was so badly injured.
Thinking of this, his mind stirred slightly, and he suddenly asked.
Where is the corpse of the "Evil King Insect"?
Jing Yuan's eyebrows twitched slightly as he stared intently at Lin Yinzhou. "Your Excellency, do you perhaps intend to purify its corpse?"
Lin Yinzhou nodded slightly, "The one who tied the knot must untie it. Since Amber and the others were injured by it, let it heal them personally."
"Your idea is certainly not wrong, but..."
"Don't worry, I guarantee it will behave. If it doesn't want to, I have plenty of ways to turn it back into a corpse."
Before Lao Jing could finish speaking, Lin Yinzhou confidently spoke up, dispelling his concerns.
"..."
Jing Yuan remained silent, his gaze subtly sweeping over the two people behind Lin Yinzhou.
This time, Lin Yinzhou brought back far fewer people than last time, but their quality improved exponentially.
No, this level can no longer be called an improvement, but an exponential explosion!
Leaving aside the celestial beings named after heaven and earth, the so-called "Black Clan" alone is enough to make people tremble with fear.
Including the petite girl named Black Phoenix, the "Black Clan" has seven members. He felt a deadly threat from three of them, and the remaining three also felt a strong threat of varying degrees.
As for Miss Black Phoenix, whom Lin Yinzhou always carried with him, he couldn't sense anything about her.
He doesn't believe that not feeling something means there's no threat.
As can be seen from her name, this Miss Black Phoenix is the incarnation of the "Black Phoenix" black hole. As one of the largest black holes in the entire universe, even he dares not make a definitive judgment on just how powerful she is.
"Ah~~"
Thinking of this, Jing Yuan felt inexplicably tired. He sighed silently and then said with a normal expression.
"In that case, please follow me. The corpse of the 'Demon King Insect' is currently in a hidden cave within 'Luofu'."
However, at that moment, Lin Yinzhou reached out and stopped Jing Yuan.
Jing Yuan looked at Lin Yinzhou, puzzled, while Lin Yinzhou took Ni Chang's hand and pulled her to his side.
"General, time is of the essence. Let Ni Chang escort us back and forth."
"Neon Garments..."
After noting down the name, Jing Yuan changed the subject and asked, "I wonder what kind of celestial body she is in her true form?"
"Wormhole!"
Jing Yuan understood instantly.
Without further ado, he took out the jade tablet and sent Lin Yinzhou a confidential map of the entire territory of "Luofu".
Compared to ordinary civilian maps, this classified map records almost all the grottoes of the Immortal Ship, including those hidden grottoes named only by numerical codes.
After sending the map, Jing Yuan spoke up again to remind him.
"The corpse of the 'Breeding King Insect' is in the 'A-03' cave."
"OK~"
After glancing at the map, Lin Yinzhou handed the jade tablet to Ni Chang.
After studying the map for a while, Ni Chang raised her hand and drew a small wormhole about the height of a person.
Lin Yinzhou didn't hesitate either; as soon as the wormhole appeared, he was the first to step inside.
Ni Chang followed closely behind, carrying the still-sleeping Black Phoenix.
As for the final scene, after giving Ling Sha a few instructions, he stepped into the black hole.
But just a few seconds too late, when Lao Jing arrived at the "Jia-03" cave, he saw the cave's defensive formation fully activated.
"Intruder detected! Initiate annihilation procedures!"
Hearing the array's cold notification tone, Jing Yuan rubbed his temples, then brought his sword fingers together and released a recognition aura.
"Target identified! Annihilation procedure terminated! Level 1 alert lifted!"
In an instant, the sky-covering defensive formation dissipated, revealing the true nature of the cave.
"I'm sorry, I was too impatient," Lin Yinzhou apologized at the right time.
"..." Jing Yuan remained silent for a moment before speaking, "I understand your eagerness to save people."
"cough~"
Lin Yinzhou coughed lightly, then looked around. He quickly got down to business, "Where is the corpse of the 'Breeding King Insect'?"
At this moment, they were suspended high in the sky, looking around, and could only see a black plain below, with no sign of the corpses of the "Demon King Insects".
"It's right beneath our feet."
Jing Yuan raised his hand and pointed to the black plain below.
"Underfoot?"
Lin Yinzhou raised an eyebrow and looked down to examine it closely.
The black plain beneath their feet seemed to stretch endlessly. From their altitude, they couldn't even see the ends of the earth. But upon closer inspection, they could see that the plain was not only barren but also shimmered with a strange luster.
Lin Yinzhou understood. He could continue to ascend by manipulating the imaginary number, wanting to see the full appearance of this "Breeding King Insect".
Even after touching the dome of the cave, they still couldn't see its full appearance.
He pondered for a moment, then turned to look at the prison scene that had risen into the air with him.
"General Jingyuan, how did you manage to transport it here?"
"It's space folding technology. Its main body is almost the size of a red giant star. 'Radiant Azure' also underwent several space foldings to fold its surrounding space to the size of a standard cavern."
Upon hearing Lao Jing mention "Yao Qing," Lin Yinzhou realized that he hadn't seen the "Yao Qing" immortal ship when he returned.
Could it be that he returned too late? Has the "Radiant Azure" immortal ship already left?
Thinking of this, Lin Yinzhou changed the subject and said.
"Speaking of which, is 'General Sky Strike' alright? She shouldn't have been infected with the 'Breeding King Worm' spores, right?"
"No, when Feixiao... also known as the 'Sky Strike General' you mentioned, arrived in the Magic Stone Galaxy, the 'Breeding King Worm' had already died. The nearby star systems had also been cleansed by Miss Amber's protective power, so there were no remaining spores."
Volume 1: Chapter 106, The Strongest Breeding Envoy!
"That's it..."
Lin Yinzhou was filled with emotion.
Amber truly lives up to its name as a "preservative" material...
Even though he was already in such a miserable state, he still risked his last bit of strength to clear out the remaining spores in the star field to prevent future troubles.
If Amber had kept this power for herself, would her situation be much better now?
As his thoughts raced, Lin Yinzhou raised his hand and aimed it at the "Breeding King Insect" below.
Given his personality, he certainly couldn't be as selfless as Amber.
But... he could still think of a way to help Amber heal her injuries as quickly as possible and stop her from suffering from the spores.
The moment the enlightenment was activated, the black plain below vanished without a trace within seconds.
The cave was vast, and Lin Yinzhou couldn't find the manifestation of the "Descending King Insect" for the time being, so he simply turned his attention to Ni Chang and asked her to find it.
Ni Chang smiled sweetly, her eyes shining with a hazy rainbow light. In just a moment, she found the newly awakened being.
Then, she tore open the wormhole and led everyone to the newly formed entity.
"So you're the 'King of Insects'?"
Looking at the long, straight black hair and eyes in front of him, with a distinctly oriental charm, Lin Yinzhou couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
How could a "King Worm" that roams the starry sea end up with such an image?
Long, straight black hair is one thing, but how come she also has a bit of a literary girl vibe? And what's with this melancholic aura?
"So... He has already fallen...?"
The "King Insect" girl gazed at the dark night sky, murmuring with a sense of loss.
After a moment, she seemed to remember something and looked at Lin Yinzhou with an apologetic expression.
"Sorry, I was distracted for a moment."
"It's okay."
Lin Yinzhou's expression became increasingly subtle. He did not feel any sense of oppression or danger from the "King Insect" girl, which made him somewhat puzzled. Was this "King Insect" girl not really a Commander?
With this in mind, Lin Yinzhou asked the question directly.
Are you still the Commander?
"Order..."
The "King Insect" girl said with a melancholy expression, "I am still a Commander, the Commander who has gone the furthest on the path of 'breeding.' But... I am no longer His offspring, nor am I the so-called 'King Insect.'"
As she spoke, the "King Insect" girl gazed at Lin Yinzhou with a complex expression, "You gave me a new life, freeing me from my insecticidal body and allowing me to take human form. I should thank you, and I should follow you, but..."
"Has my father, the 'Insect King' Taizyuros, truly fallen?"
Looking into the bewildered eyes of the "King Insect" girl, Lin Yinzhou remained silent for a moment before speaking.
"Don't you know about that 'war of the gods'?"
The "King Insect" girl gently shook her head. "I don't know. I always thought He was still alive, just temporarily dormant, no longer issuing commands to us. I... have been waiting, waiting for Father's orders. But..."
A hint of sadness appeared between the brows of the "Queen Insect" girl, and her eyes lowered unconsciously, as if she were mourning the passing of the "Insect King".
Seeing this, Lin Yinzhou suddenly remembered the theory of inheritance that Lao Jing had mentioned before. He pondered for a moment and said.
"In the current academic community, it is generally believed that after the death of the 'Insect Emperor,' you 'King Insects' inherited His remains, but you seem to..."
"So that's how it is. Did they inherit my father's remains?"
The girl murmured softly, a hint of gloom rising between her brows.
After a moment, she seemed to remember something, composed herself, and said apologetically.
"I'm sorry, I lost my composure. Regarding..."
The girl paused for a moment, finally finding a suitable name from her own understanding.
"Regarding your earlier question, Mr. Producer, I didn't inherit anything from my father, nor do I need to. I am my father's first child and his best child. From the moment I was born, I have surpassed them by far too much. Even if they inherited my father's legacy, they could never surpass me."
Lin Yinzhou raised an eyebrow slightly.
Goodness, he's quite arrogant.
However, if what she said is true, then she really has reason to be proud.
The first offspring of the "Insect King," the strongest messenger of the "breeding" destiny, is now reborn as a human. He has abandoned the bestiality of the insect and gained human rationality in return. No matter how you look at it, his future is limitless.
Lin Yinzhou thought for a moment, then asked another question.
"Can you find any other 'King Insects'?"
The "Queen Insect" girl gently shook her head. "The universe is vast. Only when my father was still alive could he contact all the insect swarms in an instant. I can't do that. Besides..."
The "King Insect" girl sighed and said, "I can no longer be considered a 'King Insect.' I have shed my insecticidal body and transformed into a human."
"It's not the 'King Insect'..."
Lin Yinzhou seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked, "Doesn't that mean you can't command the insect swarm right now?"
