543: Zhang Ling is above all else!

Although Chen Heng no longer had a place to earn a lot of Optimization counts after eliminating the source, he still had the strange creature heart vein to rely on.

He was guaranteed dozens of Optimization counts every day, sometimes over a hundred, which accumulated into a considerable fortune over time.

He opened his System panel and clicked on the Path of Pure Strength.

Looking at the last branch option, Chen Heng’s heart, which had been calm for three years, stirred with excitement once again.

This last branch had only one option.

He clicked Optimization, and after parting through layers of mist, it finally revealed its true form.

[Optimization successful, consumed 60,000 Optimization counts!]

[Chaos Heavenly Demon: Everything returns to Chaos and begins from Chaos. It is both the end and the beginning of everything. Undying and unperishing, without death or life, this will be the starting point for you to become an existence above all else.]

“...” Chen Heng had actually wanted to complain about this description for a long time.

Why bother with all this useless stuff? Why not just say how strong he had become now?

Although the System didn't elaborate, Chen Heng had a relatively clear perception of how much stronger he had become.

If his previous Origin Heavenly Demon state was 1, then his current Chaos Heavenly Demon state was fifty.

Correspondingly, the Heavenly Demon Star's rank increased once again, and the range of rules he could control further expanded.

“Halfway there...”

Perceiving the state of most of the Heavenly Demon Galaxy, the range of rules Chen Heng could now control covered seventy percent of the area.

He was already very close to the ‘Galaxy-level Overlord’ that Fila mentioned.

“It won’t be long before I should become that so-called Galaxy-level Overlord.”

Putting away his thoughts, Chen Heng leaned back on his custom-made all-metal sofa.

“Chaos Heavenly Demon, huh...”

Looking at the optimization button, which had dimmed again, he didn't know when the next Optimization would arrive.

Three years? Five years?

Chen Heng was completely indifferent. He now possessed an almost infinite lifespan, and as long as he had enough time, becoming the pinnacle of the star sea was only a matter of time.

Moreover, interstellar travel was not a small matter of one or two years. Perhaps there would be existences on other planets that could yield Optimization counts.

Just as Chen Heng was estimating how many years the next Optimization would take, Bai Jun leaped in.

“Big Brother Chen! Big Brother Chen!” Looking at the flustered and incoherent Bai Jun, Chen Heng stood up with some confusion.

“What’s... going on with you?” Chen Heng also looked at the strangely shaped Bai Jun in front of him with a bewildered expression. How did this kid turn into a slime monster?

“I don’t know! I just completely comprehended the blood of the heavenly demon you gave me, and then I felt a pain in my body, and then I turned into this!”

Bai Jun rattled off what had just happened to him like a machine gun.

“Don’t rush, let me see.”

Chen Heng frowned. Logically, the blood of the heavenly demon shouldn't cause a person’s Physical Body to collapse like this.

Furthermore, Bai Jun had the ability to spiritualize his Physical Body... The moment he placed his hand on Bai Jun, Chen Heng understood why Bai Jun had become like this.

“Uh, bro, let me tell you something, don’t be scared.”

Chen Heng took a deep breath. He really hadn't expected something like this to happen.

“It’s fine, Big Brother Chen, I can handle it.” Bai Jun’s heart sank. Could it be that he was going to die today?

“The Spiritual Qi in your body and the blood of the heavenly demon I gave you have completely fused.”

Chen Heng could clearly perceive that Bai Jun’s body structure was collapsing and then reorganizing.

“Let’s put it this way, your species has changed now.”

“We are the same thing now.”

“...?” Bai Jun was full of question marks. He didn’t understand what Chen Heng meant by that sentence.

“How do I explain this to you...” Chen Heng rubbed his temples, thinking about how to tell Bai Jun that he was now a Heavenly Demon.

That’s right, Bai Jun had an excellent compatibility with the blood of the heavenly demon. After completely mastering the blood of the heavenly demon, Bai Jun’s Human Race Bloodline and the blood of the heavenly demon directly underwent a great Fusion.

Bai Jun was no longer a Human Race member. He was now, like Chen Heng, a Heavenly Demon capable of wreaking havoc on the world.

Although he was only in the incubation period now, it was estimated that it wouldn't be long before Bai Jun would gain his brand new power.

“Anyway, you don’t have to worry. Don’t wander around during this time. Stay by my side so I can help you if anything happens.”

“Don’t worry, from my perspective, this change is a good thing for you. Enduring it will bring your strength to a level you cannot imagine.”

“That’s good.” Bai Jun let out a long breath. Since Big Brother Chen said so, he was no longer worried... In the following days, Wu Man, Luo Shuo, Hui Che, and Snake Green all encountered the same situation.

Not only them, but also those people from the Great Chaos Era.

Looking at the slime monsters all over Heavenly Demon City, Chen Heng had a headache.

These people all had one thing in common: the blood of the heavenly demon they received was the optimal dosage personally prepared by Chen Heng.

The optimal dosage was precisely at the critical point they could accept, which led to a more intense transformation of them by the blood of the heavenly demon.
