144: Chapter 144 What are you grinning about?

"President Du, Patriarch, my divine kingdom's species have made new progress and require immediate attention. Please excuse me." Tang Wuying stood up abruptly, his palms drenched in cold sweat.

Patriarch Tang Ritian set down his teacup, waved his hand with a look of gratification, and turned to smile at President Du Fanghai, saying, "Go on, go on. Wuying has been extremely diligent since he was young; he never wastes a single moment..."

The elders' echoing praises sounded extremely grating to Tang Wuying. He nodded perfunctorily, hurried upstairs as if fleeing, and locked the door behind him.

He sank his consciousness into his divine kingdom.

Just as he landed, Tang Wuying saw a person standing in the core area. Gu Han was strolling with his hands behind his back amidst a pile of buildings and divine plants, followed by a large group of bizarre-looking creatures.

These creatures looked like enlarged, featherless chickens, but with six small, deformed wings growing on their backs, stumbling as they ran.

Tang Wuying's stomach churned violently, a strong sense of repulsion surged in his heart, and he had a bad premonition.

"What are you doing? How can you just enter someone else's divine kingdom at will! Get these disgusting things out of here!" Tang Wuying pointed at the flock of strange chickens and cursed loudly.

Gu Han turned around, snapped his fingers with a grin: "Yo, you're here? These are all your 'chicken babies,' and as their father, you have to take responsibility. Look at them; they're all six-winged little angels. How much potential they have."

Following Gu Han's command, the flock of six-winged strange chickens flapped their wings and charged toward Tang Wuying in unison.

Tang Wuying was furious; he raised his hand and swung it hard.

Dozens of strange chickens were instantly slapped into a pile of minced meat.

"Stop disgusting me!" Tang Wuying roared, his eyes red, "Get out of this young master's divine kingdom immediately!"

Gu Han looked at the remains scattered all over the ground and smacked his lips: "Tsk tsk, it seems you think you're capable again."

He tilted his head slightly and called out: "Ier, get to work."

A cyan light flashed in mid-air. Ier gently waved the staff in his hand, and a powerful gust of wind rose from the ground, transforming into two huge cyan wind rings.

"Waaagh!"

Two terrified roars came from the distance. Two burly Level 4 Orc Goblins were tightly collared by the wind rings and dragged into mid-air, their limbs struggling wildly.

Tang Wuying's expression changed drastically, and he shouted in a hurry: "Don't touch them!"

These two Level 4 Believers were his biggest trump cards at the moment.

Gu Han ignored his shouting entirely and walked straight to a giant tree with extremely lush foliage. He reached out, patted the thick trunk, and looked up.

"It's truly a waste of such a good skill on you." Gu Han sighed, seeing at a glance that this tree was not simple.

This tree, along with several other strangely shaped plants nearby, were old specimens Tang Wuying had left behind from constant screening and mutation tests when he had just awakened his skill to test the effects of Selective Breeding.

Later, as the Tang Family invested massive resources and Tang Wuying's horizons broadened, his focus shifted entirely to cross-bred Goblins, and these ordinary plants used for early practice were completely shelved and never optimized again.

Tang Wuying gritted his teeth and stood still.

"Let's go, back to my divine kingdom." Gu Han turned around and stared at him, "If you put on that young master attitude with me again, I will drain your two thousand square kilometers of divine source directly."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Han waved his hand, tearing open a divine kingdom portal in mid-air. He shoved his hands into his pockets and strode inside.

Tang Wuying clenched his fists until they cracked. A sense of humiliation almost drowned his reason, but he dared not defy the compulsory force of the contract and could only follow along, biting the bullet.

Seeing this, Ier immediately flew to follow behind, the light on his staff flickering, with a gust of cyan wind behind him sweeping up several large, empty cloth bags.

Passing through the portal, Tang Wuying entered Gu Han's divine kingdom once again.

Although it wasn't his first time here, looking out at the vast territory of over ninety thousand square kilometers and the spiritual plants covering the mountains and plains still made his heart palpitate.

The group arrived at the Titan Mountains, and Qu Nimade immediately led the female Titan Werewolves to bow and welcome them.

Gu Han glanced at the bags behind Ier and said with a smile: "Ier, you don't need to go back this time. Qu Nimade, take him around for a tour. The Elf race is also under your management; help me train a batch of Believers who know healing spells first."

Qu Nimade accepted the order and left with Ier, whose old face was slightly flushed.

Having witnessed the Titan Mountains, the feeling of defiance in Tang Wuying's heart dissipated.

In the distance, rows of Titan Snake Banyans stood like thick pillars, their branches winding and drooping, appearing and disappearing in the clouds and mist.

Various rare divine plants were several times larger than ordinary ones, and the spiritual weeds surrounding them, taller than a person, gave one the illusion of having stumbled into a world of giants.

"Don't just stand there, come over and work." Gu Han pointed to the breeding ground. "You are responsible for applying your Selective Breeding. I want this batch of newly hatched Ant-men to retain the strength and Physique of this Titan to the greatest extent possible."

Tang Wuying caught a glimpse of a pale male Titan lying in the hay pile in the distance, his breath weak. In the breeding ground, Ant Queens of various forms were chattering away, looking radiant.

He seemed to have guessed what had just happened.

Tang Wuying walked to the edge of the breeding ground with a dark face and reluctantly raised his hand to cast the skill Selective Breeding.

After several hours of organizing those skill threads, Tang Wuying wiped away non-existent sweat, only to hear, "Continue, next project."

Gu Han dragged him to the Mushroom Garden in the core area, then proceeded to tell him a whole bunch of ideas on how to turn the Mushroom Person into a maternal type, all of which were changes he had never imagined before.

People are actually not that different from one another; the main difference lies in their thinking. Gu Han's requirements allowed him to see the other side of his own skill.

Even his disgust for the Mushroom Person had been diluted.

The difficulty of cross-breeding this group was obviously higher, as the span was too wide.

"It won't do, the effect is too poor." Gu Han frowned and turned to look at Tang Wuying. "Make a few more adjustments; set the part where the mother body recovers the offspring to be high-quality."

Tang Wuying could only bite the bullet and cast the skill time and time again. As his mental energy was continuously consumed, his face grew paler and paler.

"I can't do it anymore! I need to rest."

Gu Han looked at Tang Wuying, who had collapsed onto the ground. "Tsk tsk, you are a Level 4 God Lord, after all. We've barely even started."

At this point, Tang Wuying had completely given up; he just lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

He watched as Gu Han continued to operate his skills, arranging cross-breeding experiments, while simultaneously dispatching Ant-men to send the experimental subjects on which he had cast his skills to virtual coordinates for accelerated maturation.

He finally truly learned the terrifying nature of Gu Han as a person.

The cross-bred Goblins he prided himself on were simply a pile of trash with no technical content in the face of Gu Han's extremely domineering and crazy ideas for cross-species army building.

Looking at those bizarre plants and species, Tang Wuying couldn't help but fantasize: if he were to capture Gu Han as a slave, combined with his own skills...

A terrifying army of Goblins—no, wait, a terrifying army of forbidden entities would sweep across the entire world.

The more Tang Wuying thought about it, the more excited he became; his breathing became rapid.

"What are you smirking about over there? Get up immediately and screen this batch for me again." Gu Han kicked Tang Wuying on the calf, kicking him straight back to reality from his daydream.

Tang Wuying climbed up in humiliation and gritted his teeth to continue working.

Just as he raised his hand, the entire divine kingdom suddenly erupted with a violent roar, and the ground began to shake crazily.

Immediately after, in the very center of the divine kingdom, the area belonging to the core, a cluster of extremely blinding golden light suddenly exploded.

Tens of thousands of rays of golden light swept outward with irresistible force, directly covering an area of dozens of kilometers in radius.

This is! Someone has transcended and ascended!?
