Chapter 436 The First Primordial Zerg
The Lord of Light has never been so out of control since his appearance.
Wei Huan was secretly alert in his heart. The undead army was already gathering here. At the same time, the Zerg Queen flying nearby changed from having an innocent face to being as strong and brave as a warrior. At the same time, the Chaos Armor on her body began to extend outward, wrapping her entire body and spreading to her huge wings.
Looking at it this way, it looks like an ugly gray moth or a bug.
Just as Wei Huan became increasingly alert, the Lord of Light suddenly calmed down, glanced around, and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm just too happy."
Wei Huan remained unmoved.
The Lord of Light shook his head and smiled. "I know you respect me, but I also know you're wary of me. You really should learn from Mu Zhong. At least even though I know what he's thinking, I'm still willing to answer every question he asks."
"He is him, and I am me." Wei Huan said this. After all, even if he killed him, he would not be able to speak as eloquently as Mu Zhong.
"So you've been holding a knife the whole time, asking me for advice, ready to strike at any moment, just waiting for the final blow? You always think I'm going to hurt you."
Wei Huan said bluntly, "Yes, I thank you, but I'm also warning you. We've known each other for so short a time. In your long life span of a million years, knowing me is but a blink of an eye. If I promise you something, I will definitely fulfill it for you. Do you believe me?"
The Lord of Light lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded, "That's right."
In this way, Wei Huan's vigilance towards the Lord of Light was revealed. Instead, after such a frank conversation, the trust between the two sides increased instead of decreased.
The Lord of Light said bluntly, "This Chaos Hive has arrived just in time. You made the Chaos Hive a success, and the Chaos Hive will also make you a success."
Wei Huan asked, "You mean I used the power of chaos to mutate the Chaos Hive, and the Hive can help me deal with the excess Chaos power in my body."
"Indeed, it seems you've already understood the wonderful uses of the Zerg Hive. Furthermore, Chaos-level Zerg are exceptional. If you can raise a Leader-level Zerg during this period, your chances of victory in the battle against the Lord of Flesh and Blood will increase by another three points."
"So high." After saying that, Wei Huan looked at the Zerg Queen.
The queen was still in combat mode, with the Chaos Armor draped over her body. When she stared at Wei Huan with her silver eyes, there was a power that shook his mind. Although Wei Huan, as the master, would not be infected, he knew very well that this power was a mental attack from the queen, and it was probably the same as the power of Chaos, with confusion, mania and other polluting powers.
The queen and Wei Huan looked at each other. Even though they had mouths, the simplest and most efficient way to communicate was still to use mental power.
In just a short moment, Wei Huan knew everything.
The leader Zerg cultivated by the Chaos Hive is undoubtedly Chaos-level.
Chaos level is the dominant level. A hive, not counting the queen, can produce up to nine chaos-level leader insects.
Add to that the unlimited number of original primary and disaster-grade ones below, and it is a disaster force that has the ability to sweep across the divine realm.
There are ten Lords of Law in total, and the Zerg leaders, the Zerg and the Queen, together make up exactly ten.
It’s terrifying when you think about it.
However, cultivating Chaos-level Zerg is extremely difficult, no less difficult than becoming a Overlord yourself, so there is no need to consider a leader of this level for the time being.
Wei Huan pondered the message conveyed by the Zerg Queen, his eyes fell on the chaotic power raging in the filthy world, and he had a plan in his mind.
At this time, although the wind of chaos was partially suppressed, it was still raging everywhere in the world. Wherever it passed, hills collapsed and tributaries of the Yellow Spring broke. The entire world of filth was like a lone boat in the wind and rain, crumbling.
"Since the Chaos Hive can absorb the excess Chaos Power in my body, perhaps I can use it to cultivate a primary Zerg." Wei Huan said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Light's eyes flashed with excitement. "That's just as it should be! Once the primary Zerg are born, they will be invincible among their peers, and will be of great assistance to you in your fight against the Lord of Flesh and Blood."
Wei Huan's mind moved, and he established a deeper spiritual connection with the Fallen Queen.
The queen's gray eyes rippled, emitting a shimmering silver light, and the six pairs of wings behind her trembled slightly, conveying a response.
The chaotic energy on the surface of the hive surged like a living thing, turning into countless silk threads and extending towards the area where the chaotic power was the most concentrated in the filthy world.
Wherever those threads went, the raging winds of chaos were sucked into the insect nest.
With the massive influx of chaotic power, the hive began to vibrate violently, emitting a dull roar.
Countless mysterious runes appeared on the surface of the nest, and black and gray smoke rolled wildly.
Wei Huan and the Lord of Light both stared at the insect nest closely, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.
A moment later, a crack appeared on the top of the hive, and a powerful breath gushed out.
A gigantic Zerg slowly poked its head out. Its body was like a star-level battleship, bigger than a mountain. Its carapace was dark purple and covered with sharp barbs, each of which exuded a chilling aura of chaos.
The triangular compound eyes on its head flickered with a faint green light, like two will-o'-the-wisp fires.
The six legs of this original primary Zerg were strong and powerful, and every step it took made the filthy world tremble.
The pair of huge wings behind it have not yet fully unfolded, but the wingspan is over a kilometer. There are complex textures on the surface of the wings, as if they contain the ultimate principles of heaven and earth.
What's even more shocking is that it has a long spike on its tail, and black venom is constantly dripping from the tip of the spike. When the venom hits the ground, it instantly corrodes into huge holes.
"This is the power of the original primary Zerg!" The Lord of Light exclaimed. "Each of its attacks contains a powerful force of chaos. Even gods of the same level would find it difficult to resist."
As if to confirm the words of the Lord of Light, the original primary Zerg let out a deafening roar.
The sound waves turned into tangible chaotic energy and spread in all directions. Wherever they passed, the space was distorted beyond recognition, and some low-level undead that approached were instantly torn into pieces.
Wei Huan felt the powerful fighting power of this Zerg and was overjoyed.
However, he also knew that this was just the beginning.
Although the original primary Zerg are strong, they are far from enough in the face of the impending crisis.
At this moment, the Fallen Queen conveyed a message to Wei Huan through her mental power: "Master, this original primary Zerg is still in its infancy. As it absorbs more chaotic power, its strength will continue to increase."
Wei Huan nodded, knowing that training this Zerg would be a long and difficult process.
At the same time, Wei Huan was not oblivious to his own danger. He still had some chaotic energy within him that hadn't been completely eliminated. If he couldn't properly handle it, he could be contaminated by the chaos at any moment, plunging into an irretrievable state.
"I need to cultivate the Ancient Divine Body as quickly as possible to suppress the chaotic power within my body." Wei Huan said to the Lord of Light, "At the same time, with the help of the Chaos Beast, I will fully cultivate this original primary Zerg."
The Lord of Light agreed, "That's excellent. However, you must remain vigilant. The Divine Realm is rife with dangers. A single carelessness could lead to eternal damnation."
Wei Huan took a deep breath and looked determined.
He knew that a more severe challenge was coming, and this original primary Zerg would be an important trump card in his hand.
As soon as Wei Huan's consciousness returned to his body, the aura around him moved slightly. Mu Zhong and Xu Qingqiang became alert instantly and looked at him in unison.
Then Mu Zhong was the first to notice the joy in his eyes.
"Dian Ma has advanced?" Mu Zhong asked.
Wei Huan shook his head: "I have gained something else."
Without waiting for Mu Zhong to ask any more questions, Wei Huan directly opened the portal behind him.
Now that he is a mid-level god, portals have already appeared in any number. The distance of his spiritual awareness determines the distance of the portal.
In this chaotic source gap, Wei Huan's spiritual sense now reaches a distance of four kilometers in diameter. Wherever his spiritual sense reaches, it is like a huge eye opened from the void, pouring out endless laws of the filthy land.
But this time, there was no army of undead.
What came out was an extremely ferocious and hideous giant insect. Its size almost filled up Wei Huan's summoning limit, as if it was squeezed out from inside.
A terrifying aura descended, and the terrifying force surged towards Mu Zhong and Xu Qingqiang like a crushing force.
Wei Huan's mind moved, and the pressure on Mu Zhong and Xu Qingqiang was reduced, and their breathing became smoother.
"This is?"
"Zerg?"
"Wow!" Xu Qingqiang's eyes widened as he looked at the original primary Zerg leader summoned by Wei Huan and couldn't help but exclaim, "This fellow is much more impressive than the ones we've seen before!"
Mu Zhong's eyes flashed with excitement as he carefully examined the Zerg: "It seems that the Filthy World has gained a lot. This power may be able to change the course of the war."
Wei Huan's expression was stern. "We have to try it out to know its actual combat effectiveness."
Mu nodded. "I remember there's a beast's lair ahead, with quite a few level 2 beasts in it. We weren't strong enough back then, so we bypassed that lair. Why don't we try using it?"
"good."
Wei Huan and the other two flew towards the nest, and the primordial insects followed behind them like a mountain.
Xu Qingqiang turned his head and took several glances. He couldn't help but leap from Sister Crow's back and landed on the Primordial Zerg, unable to let go. "So handsome! So handsome! I wish I could have one as a mount."
Mu Zhong smiled and reminded: "Summoned creatures will disappear if they leave the distance. I'm afraid that won't work."
"I know. I just like it. It's so impressive. No matter how strong I am, just appearing like this makes me look stronger."
Seeing that Xu Qingqiang was staying on the body of the Primordial Worm and was unwilling to get off, Mu Zhong smiled, shook his head and looked at Wei Huan.
"What happened? I thought you would prioritize training your mother. Speaking of which, you recruited this Zerg when you first became a god and were still challenging the world. Didn't you say it suddenly fell into a deep sleep? Why did you wake up now? And in this state?"
Wei Huan wanted to explain, but found it very troublesome to describe the whole thing orally, so he simply raised his hand and grabbed the back of Mu Zhong's head, pressing him towards himself.
Mu Zhong was startled. Looking at the face that was getting closer and closer, his eyes couldn't help but drift towards Xu Qingqiang. What, this, this, could it be that he had been busy practicing for the past three years and had missed too much time, so he was in such a hurry?
Wei Huan felt the resistance on his hand, and after he figured it out, he couldn't help but laugh.
He has a cold temperament and is usually serious, but when he smiles, he is very gentle, like the moss in a creek after the ice and snow have melted, fresh and warm.
"Relax, just telling you everything."
Hou Chun's voice rang in his ears, and Mu Zhong was instantly drawn into those dark eyes, his mind going blank.
Soon, their foreheads pressed together, merging their consciousness. In this way, Wei Huan told Mu Zhong the whole cause and effect without missing a single word.
After a long time, Mu Zhong came back to his senses. His legs went weak for a moment, but he was protected by the hand around his waist again.
It took him a long time to regain his composure.
However, he felt unsatisfied and the hot blood in his chest could not cool down for a long time, which made him look at Wei Huan with resentment.
After all this time, I'm the one who's been idle for a long time.
Wei Huan was inevitably a little impatient when Mu Zhong looked at him, but now was not the right time. He restrained himself and kissed Mu Zhong between the eyebrows, then said, "Do you understand?"
Mu Zhong gathered his thoughts and nodded, "I understand. So, chaos is a good thing, but not too much. The Ancient Divine Body can accommodate chaos, but there are limits. If you want to gain more chaotic power, you still need to cultivate the Ancient Divine Body to a higher level."
"That's right. You must strike a balance. I've personally witnessed chaos spiraling out of control. It's terrifying. Don't overdo it."
"Okay, actually, even if you don't say it, I can feel it too. It seems like I'm about to reach my limit."
After Mu Zhong finished speaking, he turned back to look at the Primordial Worm following closely behind him.
Xu Qingqiang, who was sitting cross-legged on the insect head smoking, looked up hurriedly and looked around as if he was trying to hide something.
Mu Zhong: “…”
Mu Zhong then added, "However, you have turned a disaster into a blessing. You unexpectedly obtained a Chaos Extreme insect nest. These insect nests will help you absorb some of the Chaos Power, allowing you to withstand more Chaos Power. At the same time, they can also cultivate stronger Zerg and improve your strength."
Wei Huan nodded. That was exactly what happened.
However, Wei Huan also said: "But the Zerg is not a panacea. Once the capacity of Chaos exceeds the limit, I will still be at risk of going astray. Therefore, cultivating the Ancient God Body and increasing the upper limit of capacity is the top priority."
Mu Zhong has now calmed down completely: "So, we have to go back now, whether we want to or not?"
"That's right, come with excitement and leave with satisfaction, that's perfect."
"That's right. With that said, even the regret of not obtaining the Karma Fire Godhead has mostly dissipated."
At this moment, Xu Qingqiang shouted loudly: "Stop being affectionate, look, the nest is here!"
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong turned around and saw the insect nest where a large number of evil beasts were roaming around, and in the deep part they could even see the figures of second-level evil beasts.
When they first encountered this insect nest, they had just entered the source gap not long ago, and their strength was far from what it is now. They could only avoid this kind of evil beast nest, which was considered extremely powerful in the shallow layer.
Unexpectedly, in just a short time, they already had the strength to crush this nest and use it for experiments.
Wei Huan pointed to the beast's lair not far away and said, "Go ahead."
The former primary Zerg leader understood Wei Huan's intention, let out a low roar, and suddenly spread his huge wings, bringing up a strong storm, even knocking away the chaotic turbulence.
I saw it kick its six strong legs hard and rush towards the evil beast's lair like a cannonball.
In terms of physical strength, this primordial insect is three or four times stronger than Sister Crow.
But as for speed... there's nothing to compare. The talent trees are different. One is a scout, and the other is a warrior who charges into battle. Naturally, the talents they focus on are very different.
The evil beasts felt threatened and swarmed out of their nests, pouncing on the Zerg leader with bared fangs and claws.
The Zerg leader was not in a hurry. A faint green light flashed in his triangular compound eyes, and a stream of black venom suddenly shot out from the sharp spikes on his tail. The venom instantly turned into a huge poisonous net in the air, covering the three evil beasts.
The evil beast covered by the poisonous net let out a shrill scream, its scales corroded quickly, its skin and flesh festered, and soon it became motionless.
"Killed?" Xu Qingqiang opened his eyes wide.
Wei Huan shook his head regretfully. Killing the worst-level evil beast required the power of a master, and this primordial insect was not strong enough.
He stretched out his arm, and the Corrupted Scythe spread out from the palm of his hand. The moment the sickle took shape, the divine runes with overlapping characters had already stacked up to five layers.
Even at the fifth level, one can still see the chaotic power like rust. This is proof that Wei Huan has mastered more chaotic power.
Wei Huan raised his sword and slashed it down from a distance, killing more than ten low-level evil beasts that were killed and resurrected by the primordial insects, and harvested all their soul power.
The primordial insects continued to charge forward, swinging their huge forelimbs. Each swing brought up a wave of chaotic energy. Another group of evil beasts were hit by the energy wave, and their bodies were instantly torn in half.
Wei Huan reaped the rewards easily from behind him.
Xu Qingqiang kept saying "Wow" beside him, and finally said with disappointment: "With this big bug, the boss can clear it alone."
Mu Zhong said, "The lower limit has increased, and the upper limit has also increased. If we encounter a third-level evil beast again, we won't have to fight so hard."
"That's true. Perhaps it won't be long before we can easily kill even the third-level evil beasts."
Upon hearing this, Mu Zhong hurriedly reminded Xu Qingqiang that the negative impact of the power of chaos had already appeared.
Xu Qingqiang was stunned when he heard this: "You said that you and the boss were both affected by Chaos? Why am I not?"
Wei Huan, who was fighting, turned around and looked over when he heard this.
After Xu Qingqiang and Wei Huan stared at each other for a few seconds, his eyebrows gradually lifted and he smiled crookedly, "Could it be that my golden finger has arrived? Speaking of which, what is disorder, what is chaos? I feel that I am disorder, I am chaos!"
Wei Huan thought about it, and then looked at Xu Qingqiang deeply. If this was true, the one who could gain the most from this chaos source gap would not be himself and Mu Zhong, but Xu Qingqiang.
Now Xu Qingqiang is still unable to kill the evil beast alone. When one day he can kill the evil beast alone, this madman will definitely live in this world and upgrade crazily.
There's nothing wrong with it. As long as there are no side effects and you can get stronger, just keep working on it.
The human race cannot rely on him alone. More strong people must appear to ensure eternal prosperity for the human race.
After a brief thought, the primordial insect came to his senses and finally encountered a second-level evil beast.
It attacked by surprise, and when the time was right, it leaped high, attempting to strike the Zerg leader's back. However, as it approached, a dazzling light suddenly emanated from the Zerg leader's wings, transforming into countless sharp blades that sliced the beast into pieces.
This is a second-level evil beast!
Its strength is a hundred times that of a first-level evil beast. It took Wei Huan and others nearly a year to calmly kill a second-level evil beast.
As expected of a primordial insect second only to the Chaos level, it is already so powerful.
Of course, the Chaos-level Primordial Worm is still unable to truly destroy the Second-level Evil Beast, so the final finishing job still has to be done by Wei Huan.
But it also greatly reduced the pressure of combat.
If there is one second-level evil beast, it will be killed; if there are two, they will also be killed. The primordial insects rush through the group of evil beasts as if they are in an empty space.
In a blink of an eye, the entire nest was smashed to pieces.
Xu Qingqiang was so excited that he danced with joy: "This is too powerful! With this big guy here, what do we have to fear in the future!"
Mu nodded: "That's right, with it, even a level 3 evil beast can be killed."
"How about we...?" Xu Qingqiang became eager to try again.
But this time, Mu Zhong and Wei Huan shook their heads at the same time: "Let's deal with the threat of the Lord of Flesh and Blood first, then it won't be too late."
"Alright, alright." Xu Qingqiang said, and suddenly magic patterns appeared on his face, and sharp corners grew on his forehead. "Hehehe, my hands are itching to go too."
Looking at Xu Qingqiang who turned into a black light and joined the battle, Wei Huan and Mu Zhong looked at each other and smiled.
…
Lower Divine Realm
The place where the ancient gods fell.
Qiyuan Star, the human race's pioneering city and command headquarters
Haotian and others were at the edge of the world wall, looking anxiously at the starship that was approaching slowly from a distance like a turtle.
Finally, the starship arrived at the starry sky port. The next second after the bridge was connected, Haotian appeared on the corridor, anxiously waiting for the latest news.
A group of human generals from Canglan Star, now dressed in modern clothes, came out. Leading the way was the captain of the exploration team, a ninth-level Canglan elder.
"City Lord, I've checked. The crack in the Chaos Source Rift is still the same as before, and there's no sign of Marshal Wei and the others." After saying this, Elder Canglan sighed, "Eight years have passed, and the time for the Lord of Flesh and Blood to arrive is getting closer and closer. Could they be..."
Fallen?
Or escaped?
He didn't finish the rest of the words, but his eyes still showed a little distrust of Wei Huan and others.
The sense of urgency brought about by the crisis even made him speak without thinking: "Marshal Wei took his men to the Source Gap, and there has been no news for many years. He left the affairs of Qiyuan Star to the ancestor. The ancestor has been busy day and night these years, and has not even had time to practice. To this day, he still hasn't formed an Ancient Divine Body. This time, the Lord of Flesh and Blood has come, and they are looking for trouble with disasters, but we..."
"Enough!" Haotian suddenly spoke, releasing the breath of God. The elder who spoke knelt on the ground with a thud. Although the others were not the first to be hit, they also bent down and gradually knelt down.
The elder, suppressed by divine might, had blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, but he continued to say, "I just feel sorry for the old ancestor. They are bullying the weak, gaining nothing but leaving the hardship to us, and still saying..."
"I've said enough!" Haotian was boiling with anger. He put more pressure on the elder, and his body softened and he fell down, losing consciousness.
Haotian then withdrew his pressure and said loudly: "This is the third time that Elder Hong has spoken without thinking. I will not tolerate this for the third time.
From today on, Elder Hong will be removed from all positions, his status as an elder will be revoked, and he will never be allowed to enter the council hall again."
"Grandmaster, please show mercy!"
"Ancestor retracts his order!"
"Grandmaster, Elder Hong is loyal and always puts you first. Please forgive Elder Hong once more."
Haotian sighed: "If you continue talking, go with Elder Hong."
Everyone heard Haotian's determination and couldn't help but shut up, but there was obviously a lot of dissatisfaction in their eyes.
Haotian shook his head: "Why do you still have that so-called racial prejudice even today? We are all human beings, no different from Commander Mu and the others. In fact, because we are of the same short-lived species, we should help each other.
But look at you, Commander Mu and the others have repeatedly given in, but you are still refusing to give in. What are you trying to do? Are you going to rebel? Are you going to roast me on a volcano?"
Haotian got angry when he spoke, waving his sleeves and scolding: "I am already a god, and I am not even a human. According to you, Marshal Wei and I are the same clan, and you are all outsiders, right?
Can you please open your eyes! Use your brain! If you push me again, I won’t tolerate you anymore!!”
