72: Chapter 72: With a strong and well-equipped army, log in to the Starry Sky Battle Flag website to prepare for the Yue cuisine!

Lin Yuan hovered high above the Wasteland Divine Domain, his thoughts shifting slightly.

The [Divine Domain Panel] unfolded before his eyes.

The first things Lin Yuan locked onto were the five core buildings of the Divine Domain.

[Building Name: wasteland radiation tower (Three)]

[Rank: Mid-tier Platinum]

[Function: Pluto-Uranium Rays (Releases extremely dangerous pure black radiation, forcibly triggering biological Gene Locks, mutation rate increased to 1000%)]

[Building Name: Endless Killing Gladiator Cage]

[Rank: Peak Diamond Grade]

[Function: Space Folding (Internal expansion to 200,000 units), Vengeful Spirit Astral Wind, Law Baptism (Law fragments of those killed in battle will condense into blood essence to nourish the survivors).]

[Building Name: living casting mother nest]

[Rank: Low-tier Platinum]

[Function: Infinite Devouring (Ignores pollution, devours all high-tier remains), mass-produces high-tier living metal embryos.]

[Building Name: star spirit gene monolith]

[Rank: Mid-tier Platinum]

[Function: Evolution Barrier (Absorbs abundant pure bio-electric energy to construct Titan Pressure Field and Void Shadow Lurker Field; all units in the domain gain 50% gene compatibility and evolution rate boost)]

[Building Name: Blood Abyss Sea]

[Rank: Mid-tier Platinum]

[Function: Heart of the Divine Domain, Rapid Resurgence (Recovery speed for all living beings in the domain increased by 3000%).]

Every building had crossed the barriers of their sub-ranks.

The massive amount of polluted resources invested back then...

Had been thoroughly digested by the Divine Domain over five hundred years of fermentation, transforming into its foundation.

Lin Yuan shifted his gaze to the racial panel below.

Although the reproduction speed of the Abyssal Blood Living-Metal Tyrant Demons was limited by their own high-tier barriers...

They still experienced a massive explosion in numbers after five hundred years of accumulation.

[Vassal Race]: Abyssal Blood Living-Metal Tyrant Demon

[Quantity]: 800,000

[Average Rank]: High-tier Silver — Peak Gold

[Racial Traits]: Titan Gravity Field, Shadow Lurker Etherealization, Abyssal Blood Living Arsenal...

Eight hundred thousand Tyrant Demons!

Among them, fifty thousand were core elites who had reached Peak Gold, and over a thousand had broken through to the Platinum rank.

If this force were placed in the real world, it would be enough to flatten a small alien plane.

He continued to scroll down.

The data for the subsidiary races made Lin Yuan's eyes twitch.

[Black Gold Blade-Feather Demon Vulture]: 850,000 (Mid-tier Bronze — High-tier Silver).

[Infrasonic Bone-Blade Bat]: 1.2 million (Initial-tier — High-tier Silver).

[Oscillating Liquid Metal Crab]: 450,000 (Mid-tier Bronze — Peak Silver). Vacuum Collapse Zone (Giant claws cause small-scale spatial collapse when swung).

[Scarlet Flying Blade Bone Fish]: 600,000 (Mid-tier Bronze — Peak Silver). Death Qi Erosion (Bite carries Netherworld Death Qi, preventing wound healing).

After a century of slaughter within the sea and sky ecosystems, all members were roughly at the Initial-tier Silver rank.

Besides these familiar faces...

Two new lines of data appeared at the bottom of the panel.

[Calamity Fire Spirit]: 8,500

[Rank]: Peak Silver — Six-star Gold

[Traits]: Physical Immunity, Frigid Poison Fire Body, Vengeful Spirit Fire Whip...

Calamity Convergence: Multiple Fire Spirits can forcibly fuse into a single [Calamity Elemental Spirit Lord], briefly gaining destructive power that crosses major rank boundaries (Fire Spirits will fall into a long period of weakness after dismantling).

Lin Yuan turned to look toward the Far North Volcano Group.

That volcanic belt was spewing poisonous fire into the sky.

The air was filled with bone-chilling cold and deadly poisonous fire.

A group of humanoid elemental lifeforms, condensed entirely from black poisonous fire, were rolling in the lava.

A few Titan Tyrant Demons, bored out of their minds, jumped into the lava to brawl with these Fire Spirits.

As a result, they were whipped by the Fire Spirits' poisonous fire whips until their skin was torn and their flesh was gaping, making them howl in pain.

“Eight thousand elemental lifeforms.” Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised.

These Fire Spirits were the aberrant products born after he had stripped away a large number of fragmented negative affixes and thrown them into the volcanic crater.

Elemental life had always been a sky-high priced, scarce resource on the trading networks of various deities.

Now, in his Wasteland, they could actually be mass-produced.

Lin Yuan withdrew his gaze.

These changes were certainly pleasing, but they were all within his range of acceptance.

What truly made his scalp tingle and even sent a slight chill down his spine...

Was that group of bottom-tier insects he had once regarded as cannon fodder.

Quantity: 12 million!

Lin Yuan's figure flickered.

He vanished directly from high altitude and descended above the outermost edge of the Divine Domain.

“Buzz—”

Sensing the arrival of the Creator's aura...

From deep underground, an extremely sharp, high-frequency screech filled with supreme fanaticism suddenly rang out.

Rumble!

The surface for hundreds of miles around violently burst open.

Densely packed World-Devouring Nether-Carapace Zerg swarmed frantically out from underground like a bursting black tsunami.

One million.

Five million.

Ten million!

A full twelve million Nether-Carapace Zerg, clad in black Pluto-Uranium Shells, blotted out the sun.

They didn't make any noisy sounds.

The moment every Zerg rushed out of the ground, they all retracted their sharp limbs in unison.

They prostrated themselves in the Black Thorn Grass, their heads pressed firmly against the ground.

Toward Lin Yuan in mid-air, they offered their most absolute submission.

The gathering of a sea of twelve million mutant Zerg...

Brought a visual impact sufficient to make anyone with a weak mind lose themselves.

Lin Yuan hovered in mid-air, his gaze sweeping across this black sea of insects.

Were these still those low-level cockroaches that could only spit poisonous gas?

The millions of Soldier Insects in the front row were already over two meters long.

The shells on their backs were not only pure black but were also covered in a layer of highly resilient metallic keratin.

At the joints of their limbs grew infrasonic capsules similar to those of the Bone Blade Bats.

On both sides of their abdomens, respiratory gill slits unique to the Scarlet Flying Blade Bone Fish had even split open.

Sky, sea, toxins, radiation.

During five hundred years of evolution, this group of Nether-Carapace Zerg had stolen and learned the genes of every edible species in the Divine Domain.

They had gathered the strengths of a hundred families and fused them into one.

The hundred thousand elite Praetorian Nether-Carapace Zerg at the very core...

Had fused these characteristics perfectly.

Not only could they spit neurotoxic miasma laced with Pluto-Uranium Rays...

But they could also release infrasonic interference in close combat, and the hardness of their shells could even withstand a full-strength blow from a Silver rank.

They were essentially all-around machines born for slaughter.

Lin Yuan's intent locked onto the very front of the insect sea.

There stood an outlier only two meters long, with a slender build and a body covered in silver exoskeleton.

The Nether-Carapace Zerg King.

It did not lie on the ground like the ordinary Zerg.

Instead, it knelt on one knee, its half-meter-long dark gold arm-blades crossed over its chest.

In its narrow, smooth compound eyes, there was no Zerg Chaos or bloodlust, only extremely high intelligence and fanaticism.

[Hero Unit: World-Devouring Nether-Carapace Zerg]

[Rank: Nine-star Gold]

[Trait 1: Zerg Command (Ignores mental interference, perfectly controls millions of Zerg, constructs a mental network).]

[Trait 2: Combat Deduction (Possesses extremely high combat intelligence, able to quickly analyze enemy formations and weaknesses).]

[Trait 3: Gene Lock (Locks its own genes, immune to infrasound, strong acids, toxins, and high-intensity radiation).]

Lin Yuan was secretly alarmed.

Nine-star Gold!

A marginal cannon-fodder race of an F-grade Divine Domain had actually, without much resource investment...

Relied on cannibalism, suicide, and devouring to forcibly produce a Nine-star Gold hero unit!

His vision penetrated the ground.

Lin Yuan saw the bloated monster occupying most of the space in the deepest part of the insect nest.

[Special Unit: Nether-Carapace Zerg Mother]

[Rank: Nine-star Gold]

[Trait 1: Infinite Reproduction (Deprives the entire race of reproductive rights; as long as energy is sufficient, egg-laying speed has no upper limit).]

[Trait 2: Gene Extraction (Devours any high-tier flesh and blood, forcibly extracts excellent gene fragments, and integrates them into the next generation of eggs).]

[Trait 3: Mental Storm (When facing a decapitation crisis, burns lifespan to release a mental shock, wiping out the Soul bones of all living creatures).]

“A perfect match,” Lin Yuan couldn't help but whisper.

The Mother handles internal affairs, responsible for infinite troop production and genetic iteration.

The King handles external affairs, responsible for leading the army and tactical execution.

This Zerg army of ten million had completely transformed.

They were no longer ants meant to be food.

They were a natural disaster capable of stirring up a storm in the Demon God Plane!

Lin Yuan withdrew his gaze.

These Nether-Carapace Zerg were very perverted, but they were merely strong.

The true ceiling of the Divine Domain was always in the Central Basin.

Lin Yuan moved slightly, crossing space to arrive above the Blood Abyss Sea.

The sea of blood churned violently, sensing Lin Yuan's arrival.

A huge dark-red meat cocoon hanging from a burl on the Demon Tree suddenly split open from within.

Boom!

A gravity field, violent to the extreme, instantly swept through the entire basin.

Under the pressure of this gravity, the Blood Abyss Sea below was forcibly pressed into a trench a hundred meters deep.

A fifteen-meter-tall figure slowly stood up from the meat cocoon.

The Tyrant.

It raised its head, its dark gold vertical pupils looking directly at Lin Yuan.

“Roar—!”

(Fighting for you!)

[Hero Unit: Abyssal Blood Tyrant]

[Rank: Six-star Platinum]

[Trait 1: Extreme Path Titan (When activated, the Law of Gravity covers a ten-mile radius, and strength attributes double).]

[Trait 2: Dark Gold Fluid (Immune to 80% of physical damage, devours kinetic energy and reflects it).]

[Trait 3: Law Suppression (Exerts absolute class pressure on creatures lower than its own rank, weakening all their attributes).]

Following the Tyrant's roar...

From the bottom of the Blood Abyss Sea, ten thousand dark gold pillars of light shot into the sky.

Over a thousand core Tyrant Demons who had reached the Initial-tier Platinum rank stepped out onto the water.

Their Battle Intent pierced the clouds, shattering the cloud layer in the sky.

Lin Yuan nodded in satisfaction; this was his true confidence.

No matter how many Zerg there were, in front of the Tyrant and this group of monsters who had mastered portions of Law power...

They would still only be rubbed into the ground.

Finally.

Lin Yuan turned around and looked at the colossal entity standing in the middle of the sea of blood.

[Liquid Metal Blood-Devouring Demon Tree].

This ancient tree, which ran through the entire ecosystem of the Divine Domain, had now completely broken through the Transcendent barrier.

[Building/Plant Name: Liquid Metal Blood-Devouring Demon Tree (Low-tier Transcendent)]

[Function 1: Mother-Child Leyline Network (Roots connect millions of child trees, controlling the leylines of the entire domain, providing absolute Law stability, and immunity to spatial tearing).]

[Function 2: dark abyss spiritual energy (Breathes in pollution and radiation, transforming them into high-concentration dark abyss spiritual energy, raising the evolution ceiling for all creatures in the domain).]

[Function 3: Transcendent Flesh Embryo (Can produce 1 Transcendent-grade living metal meat cocoon per month, greatly increasing the probability of the devourer breaking through ranks).]

[Function 4: Life Deprivation (Hostile units within the coverage area of the Demon Tree's roots lose 1% of their vitality per second, which replenishes one's own side).]

Transcendent-grade!

This Demon Tree was no longer just a functional building.

It was the ecological core of the entire Wasteland Divine Domain.

As long as the Demon Tree did not fall, this 300,000 square kilometer Divine Domain was an indestructible iron plate.

Lin Yuan finished reading all the data.

The heart in his chest beat faster.

The five hundred years of AFK management had brought gains so massive that he himself found it absurd.

“It's time to go out and stretch my muscles.”

Lin Yuan whispered to himself.

His Realm had just broken through the Third Transition, and his Divine Domain had strong soldiers and sturdy horses.

Although he couldn't directly start a fight with people in reality...

On the virtual Starry Sky War Chess Network, there were plenty of punching bags.
