47: Chapter 47: Leak Detection in Platinum Buildings! Infinite Energy Drives the Evolution of the Divine Realm

The flames of the interstellar battlefield were constantly annihilated under the tentacles of the Abyss Demon God.

"Bringing you here to see this, naturally, isn't to scare you." Commander Xiao Lie withdrew his gaze and looked at Lin Yuan.

"The midterm streaming exam is imminent, and those aristocratic families in Jiangcheng have deep foundations. Have you established the final direction for your Wasteland Divine Domain's foundation?"

As he spoke, Commander Xiao Lie raised his right hand, which was covered in dark gold battle armor.

Two holographic star maps unfolded in the vacuum environment.

"The military's mainstream evolutionary directions are nothing more than two paths." Commander Xiao Lie pointed to the star map on the left.

"The first is [Mechanical Ascension], building an interstellar fleet, relying on extreme firepower coverage and beyond-visual-range strikes to crush everything."

"This path burns money; it requires an extremely high industrial foundation and resource chain."

He slid his finger to the right, to a crimson star map depicting countless ferocious giant beasts.

"The second is [Transcendent Flesh], relying on the genetic shackles of believers to break through, using physical bodies to hard-resist planet-annihilating cannons and tear apart warships with bare hands. Which path do you intend to take with those Mutant Goblins of yours?"

Lin Yuan looked at the two star maps without any hesitation: "Commander, the environment of my Wasteland Divine Domain is too harsh; I can't handle precise mechanical assembly lines."

"I intend to follow one path to the end, walking the path of extreme physical mutation."

Mechanical Ascension required sterile workshops, precision machine tools, and massive amounts of high-grade ore.

In the Wasteland Divine Domain, there was only acid rain and radioactive poisonous gas filling the sky; one couldn't even keep a clean iron plate, so messing with machinery was just asking for death.

Living metal armor was the most suitable weapon carrier for the Tyrant Demon.

Commander Xiao Lie nodded: "Smart! Civilians should spend limited resources on the cutting edge."

"Greed leads to failure; being able to walk one path to the extreme is the truth."

He reached out into the void with his backhand, and two scrolls with dark golden halos appeared out of thin air, hovering in front of Lin Yuan.

"Since you are someone I specially approved to enter the [Dark Night Sequence], I cannot be too stingy." Commander Xiao Lie explained in a deep voice.

"These are the genetic maps I treasured when I campaigned in the abyss in my early years—the [Titan Giant Beast Gene Map] and the [Void Shadow Lurker Gene Map]."

Lin Yuan's heart shook violently.

"This thing contains the evolutionary routes for extreme defense and extreme assassination."

"Although it requires massive resources to guide believers, and the success rate is extremely low. But once formed, within the same rank, it is hard to find an opponent."

Commander Xiao Lie looked at Lin Yuan, "You can't buy this on the market; consider it my personal investment in you."

"Take it, and don't lose face for the Spark Legion in the major exam."

Lin Yuan took the two maps with both hands.

As he took the maps, the aura of savagery and death intertwined and rushed straight into his mind through his palms.

Such maps involving underlying genetic evolution laws were absolute contraband on the market.

If auctioned on the black market, the value would be at least over ten million faith points, or even priceless.

"Thank you, Commander." Lin Yuan thanked him solemnly.

He noted this favor.

With a flash of white light, Lin Yuan's consciousness exited the Spark Legion's top-secret internal network and returned to the bedroom of his real-world villa.

He sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the two ancient maps he had materialized in his hands.

He had the maps.

But how to make those Tyrant Demons, who only knew how to kill and eat, comprehend the profound genetic laws was a problem.

He couldn't exactly have the Tyrant King take the maps and teach them to read one by one.

Lin Yuan opened his personal terminal and logged into the Pantheon Trading Network.

He searched for auxiliary-type divine domain buildings.

Filtering conditions: Gene guidance, physical evolution.

A large number of products scrolled rapidly across the holographic screen, the prices exorbitantly high.

Soon, Lin Yuan's gaze rested on an item in the corner of the page.

[Platinum-Grade Abandoned Building: star spirit gene monolith]

Seller's note: Product of ancient Star Spirit ruins.

Can input high-grade gene maps, emitting a gene-guiding force field, allowing believers to comprehend evolutionary directions imperceptibly.

However, the internal energy core of this monolith has been completely destroyed and requires massive amounts of pure bio-electrical energy to drive.

It is currently a decoration; no returns or exchanges if it cannot be repaired. Price: 5 million faith points.

The comment section below was filled with mockery.

"5 million to buy a big rock? Do you really think people are stupid and rich?"

"Massive bio-electrical energy? Where would you find so many high-grade magical beasts to discharge electricity into it every day? With these resources, I might as well buy ready-made high-grade troops!"

Lin Yuan looked at the screen, secretly pleased.

"To others, it's a decoration, but for me, it's just right."

He decisively clicked to purchase, paying 5 million faith points.

Others lacked energy sources, but in his Wasteland Divine Domain, there was a [Liquid Metal Blood-Devouring Demon Tree] rooted in the Blood Abyss Sea.

The stray energy and geothermal fire toxins of the entire divine domain were under the control of the Demon Tree; providing bio-electrical energy was not too simple.

"Ding! The item has been sent to your divine domain terminal."

Lin Yuan closed his eyes, his consciousness sank, and he descended into the Wasteland Divine Domain.

Dark red blood rain was still falling, and radiation storms intertwined with red and green tore at the firmament.

Lin Yuan hovered high in the sky, overlooking this violent territory of his.

In the center of the basin, the Blood Abyss Sea rolled endlessly.

On the carbonized crystalline land at the edge of the Blood Abyss Sea, the scene was rough and primitive.

After this period of recuperation, the number of Abyssal Blood Living-Metal Tyrant Demons had reached sixty thousand.

With abundant food and no natural enemies, they mated and multiplied crazily by the Blood Abyss Sea.

A strong female Tyrant Demon lay by the Blood Abyss Sea, letting out a painful roar.

Accompanied by a large pool of thick, dark amniotic fluid, a newborn Tyrant Demon fell onto the carbonized crystalline ground.

There was no weakness period, no lactation period.

The newborn Tyrant Demon came into contact with the radioactive toxins in the air, and the skin on its body surface hardened rapidly.

A layer of deep black liquid metal oozed from its pores, forming hard bone armor.

It opened its crimson eyes and opened its mouth full of fangs.

It took a bite of a blood-stained stone nearby and chewed it to pieces, swallowing it.

Born as a Bronze Three-Star!

This was the foundation of the Tyrant Demons today, far from comparable to the previous Grey Goblinss.

The Wasteland does not support idlers, nor does it support the weak.

In order to accelerate advancement and obtain the high-grade meat cocoons hanging from the Demon Tree.

The Tyrant Demons spontaneously surged toward the [Endless Slaughter] Gladiator Cage on one side.

Lin Yuan cast his gaze toward the death gladiator cage.

Slaughter was staged in every inch of space.

The extremely dangerous abyss terrain was materialized here.

In the strong acid toxic swamp, two Bronze-rank newborn Tyrant Demons were brawling.

One Tyrant Demon brandished a heavy hammer made of liquid metal, smashing its companion's sternum.

The broken ribs pierced the heart.

This Tyrant Demon pulled out the heavy hammer and shook off the blood plasma on it.

The soul of the fallen had not yet dissipated before it was swept away by the slaughter gale above the gladiator cage.

The gale indiscriminately cut the bodies of the survivors below.

The victorious Tyrant Demon had hundreds of deep bone-reaching wounds cut into its body by the gale, and the black liquid metal squirmed to repair them.

It opened its mouth and chewed and swallowed the remains of its companion.

[Attribute Plunder] triggered.

The blood energy and strength foundation of the fallen were forcibly extracted by the gladiator cage and poured into the winner's body.

This Tyrant Demon's body size expanded again, its aura climbed, and it broke through directly to the Silver rank.

It did not stop, turning to pounce on another group of testers not far away.

Outside the gladiator cage, the [Liquid Metal Blood-Devouring Demon Tree] stood quietly.

The Demon Tree blotted out the sky and sun, with tens of thousands of liquid metal roots rooted in the [Blood Abyss Sea].

The Blood Abyss Sea churned, and massive amounts of abyss energy and geothermal fire toxins were transported to the trunk along the roots.

The branches were covered with over a hundred thousand high-energy meat cocoons.

The Tyrant Demons, who had consumed a lot of energy in battle, walked out of the gladiator cage, tore down the meat cocoons, and ripped open the metal membrane.

They swallowed the lethal toxins and life collagen inside.

Missing limbs regenerated, shriveled muscles refilled, and physical strength returned to its peak within a few breaths.

...

The subsidiary races were also expanding.

The 30,000 Dark Gold Poisonous Miasma Insect Race had multiplied to a scale of 300,000.

They covered the edge of the divine domain, devouring residue and mutated spore mushrooms, and the dark green metal carapaces on their bodies became increasingly thick.

A few Bronze-rank Tyrant Demons rushed to the edge of the insect swarm, brandishing heavy weapons to harvest insect meat.

The swarm did not retreat; hundreds of thousands of poisonous miasma insects rushed up, using strong acid body fluids to corrode the Tyrant Demons' living armor.

In the sky, Black Gold Blade-Feather Demon Vultures circled.

They targeted the Dark Gold Poisonous Miasma Insect Race below.

The Demon Vulture flock formed a black assault formation and swooped down.

Metal feathers cut through the carapaces of the swarm, and green strong acid body fluids splashed everywhere.

The swarm launched a counterattack.

Thousands of poisonous miasma insects sprang up, their mouthparts crushing the wings of the Demon Vultures and dragging them to the ground to be eaten.

In the Styx, the numbers of Oscillating Liquid Metal Crabs and Scarlet Flying Blade Bone Fish doubled.

They fought each other in the scarlet waters.

The Liquid Metal Crab brandished its high-frequency oscillating pincers, pinching the Flying Blade Bone Fish into two pieces.

The bone fish opened its mouth full of metal sharp teeth, biting through the shell of the Liquid Metal Crab.

Sixty thousand Abyssal Blood Living-Metal Tyrant Demons, plus hundreds of thousands of extremely bloodthirsty subsidiary races.

The combat power reserves of the divine domain had reached a terrifying magnitude.

But Lin Yuan knew that this was not enough.

No matter how many there were, without the qualitative change of top-level genes, encountering a real Abyss Demon God would still make them cannon fodder.
