106: The fourth devouring evolution! Chen De, exploded!

Chen De returned to Tianyan Sect, but did not immediately choose to go to Tianfeng City.

Instead, he swapped out the parasitic body of one disciple for another.

Afterward, Chen De controlled the original disciple and gave him his final command.

Leave the sect immediately, take on a mission, and then die a reasonable death.

Subsequently, Chen De performed the same operation over thirty times with the newly acquired bodies.

He strictly required that their death order must not be the same as the order in which Chen De met them.

After completing all of this, Chen De returned to the Hall of Merit.

Chen De did not choose the missions close to Tianfeng City.

On the contrary, Chen De chose a mission location quite far from Tianfeng City.

It was just a bit more walking, nothing major.

...

Tianfeng City.

As soon as he returned to Tianfeng City, Chen De did not dare to waste any time and headed straight for the underground laboratory.

The results were as Chen De expected.

During his absence, no groundbreaking research had emerged.

But then again, the emergence of the infant form was originally full of randomness and serendipity.

If not for that, by the time Chen De had normally researched and achieved results,

it would definitely not have been this short amount of time; it was even possible for the time to be three to five times longer.

Upon entering the laboratory, Chen De went straight to the infant form.

Next, Chen De detached from the parasitic disciple.

With a feeling of trepidation, he reached out his right hand towards the infant form.

Before truly verifying it, Chen De couldn't guarantee whether this artificial life system would acknowledge him.

But Chen De couldn't really choose to break through his realm to verify it.

If it didn't work, that would be fine; Chen De would save himself the trouble of experimenting.

But if it did work, Chen De wouldn't be able to research a suitable infant form in such a short amount of time.

At that point, wouldn't he suffer a huge loss!

So, if Chen De wanted to do research, he could only do it before breaking through his realm.

However, this also presented another possibility.

That is, Chen De succeeded in his research.

But before the actual breakthrough and implementation, Chen De couldn't guarantee whether it would work.

If it didn't work, it would mean all of Chen De's efforts and investments during this period would have been in vain.

All in all, Chen De had shown great courage and determination to make that decision back then.

"Ding, a devourable evolutionary object has been detected! The evolutionary path after devouring is..."

Hearing this system prompt, Chen De immediately felt relieved.

Finally, he succeeded!

Evolution: Evil God · Blood Slaughter Demonic Crystal Rat

Devour Target: Unknown

Synthesis Point: Extreme Chaos

Evolution Target: Evil God · Chaos World-Destroying Beast (Spirit Devouring, Blood Refining, Self-Conflict, Self-Collapse...)

There was still only one evolution point, just like the black box containing the Evil God that Chen De had obtained.

However, the panel was not as extravagant as the Evil God's.

Chen De also knew that encountering a grand prize like the Evil God was completely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Even in future devour evolutions, Chen De wasn't sure if he would encounter such a top-tier item again.

He could only say that if he encountered one, he should try his best not to miss it.

After working so hard for so long, expending countless efforts and painstaking care, he finally saw a return.

So, the moment Chen De saw the synthesis panel, he immediately chose to proceed.

"System, for devour evolution, select the synthesis point, Extreme Chaos!"

Saying this, Chen De placed his hand on the infant form.

In a flash of light, Chen De and the infant form merged and transformed.

As the light dissipated, Chen De reappeared before everyone, looking exactly the same.

Chen De looked at his body in confusion.

What's going on?

No changes at all?

Could it be the same as last time when he devoured the Evil God and evolved?

All the manifestations were internal?

So, Chen De raised his hand, wanting to investigate.

But as soon as Chen De's body moved, it was as if a chain reaction occurred.

Suddenly, Chen De's entire being exploded!

Black liquid was blasted everywhere in the laboratory.

It also covered many of the researchers present.

The researchers remained unmoved, merely watching everything in silence.

The black liquid remained in the field for a long time, without any movement.

But in reality, these black liquids, at a size invisible to ordinary people, were slowly gathering and continuously splitting.

This went on for a full hour.

Only then did these black liquids in the field gather into individual, water-drop-sized clusters.

And these gathered black liquid droplets were also constantly exploding and splattering.

As time passed, the water-drop-like things formed by the black liquid gradually grew larger and larger.

But their surrounding surfaces were still constantly bursting and splattering small black liquid droplets.

After an unknown amount of time, all of these black liquids finally gathered together, forming a human shape.

But there were no definite facial features or distinct form yet.

After a while longer, it truly transformed into Chen De's appearance.

However, at this very moment, black liquid was still continuously splattering from Chen De's body.

After Chen De stood in place and steadied himself for a while, the black liquid finally stopped splattering.

At this point, to outsiders, Chen De appeared no different from an ordinary person.

Chen De took a step, wanting to walk forward, but unexpectedly, one movement caused a reaction throughout his entire body.

The balance that had just been stabilized with great difficulty was broken.

Chen De once again exploded into black liquid that covered the entire room.

Chen De could only helplessly re-gather himself.

With the experience from the last time, Chen De's speed of re-gathering was much faster this time.

After re-gathering, this time Chen De was not in a hurry, only making some subtle movements.

Chen De's body instantly became covered in cracks, as if it was about to explode at any moment.

Chen De quickly stopped, and the cracks on his body slowly disappeared.

Chen De then used this cycle repeatedly to find the balance point.

Soon, Chen De was able to perform some slight movements without causing any impact.

So, Chen De tried to take another step.

He exploded again, but this time, only the leg that took the step exploded.

Chen De quickly reformed that leg and continued to walk.

At first, every step Chen De took, his leg would explode once.

But as Chen De gradually became more proficient, the frequency of explosions became less and less.

Chen De knew that this was his innate ability of Self-Conflict and Self-Collapse…

These were all Chen De's innate abilities, and Chen De could naturally control them.

It was just that Chen De had just acquired such abilities and was not yet proficient in their use, which caused such phenomena.

These innate abilities of Chen De were considered passive.

That is to say, under normal circumstances, Chen De should be in that state of being everywhere.

And that was a state Chen De didn't need to deliberately maintain.

Just like a normal person, under normal circumstances, he instinctively walks on two legs.

There is no need for deliberate human control at all.

But if you suddenly make him walk on one leg, if you don't deliberately control it,

then subconsciously, without realizing it, he will still walk on two legs.

However, once he gets used to walking on one leg, even if he no longer deliberately controls it, even if he has two legs, he will still subconsciously walk on one leg.

Chen De's current situation was exactly like this; under normal circumstances, he shouldn't be in this state after evolving.

So Chen De could only deliberately maintain this state.

He had to adapt to it well, and once he fully adapted, he would be able to maintain this state subconsciously.

Chen De estimated that half a month would be enough for him to adapt.
