The takeover of the control center was much quicker than imagined.
Once the Lords of the Primordial Evil Realm were completely repelled, only the Lords of the Primordial Realm and a ground full of Species corpses surrounded the control center.
The Lords all teleported away, leaving none behind.
"How is everything? Are you all alright?"
Lin You quickly regrouped with Yan Lie and Situ Jian.
"Itâs alright, thanks to your boosts earlier, we only lost a few Species and successfully killed a Lord," Situ Jian said joyfully.
"Hehe, I killed two."
Yan Lie chuckled with a smug look.
Just as the Primordial Evil Realm fled chaotically, he boldly charged with his Species, luckily taking down two Lords.
Looking at him now, his body was covered in wounds, terrifying cuts slashing across his chest and back, flesh torn, causing a stir of fear in those watching.
"Arenât you afraid of accidentally dying?"
Lin You was speechless about his audacity and promptly summoned an Elf Sage to heal him.
"Afraid of what, fortune favors the brave, and isnât there your strong healing anyway?"
Yan Lie said nonchalantly, peeling off his torn clothes and retrieving a new set from his personal space.
Like him, a newly Tier Eight Lord, his accumulation of Power of Faith couldnât compare to those older and more established Lords, making him relatively weaker.
But with sheer recklessness and his aura-augmenting ability, he wasnât at too much disadvantage.
Indeed, fortune favors the brave.
Others might not be able to achieve this.
Situ Jian shook his head helplessly, long accustomed to Yan Lieâs antics, he paid no mind.
Surveying the surroundings, he then said, "This battle left many corpses. I need to go collect some to make Insect nests."
"You can use corpses to make Insect nests?" Lin You asked in surprise.
"Yes," Situ Jian nodded, "I have a Territory Ability that allows extra cultivation of Insect Species using corpses."
"I see," Lin You suddenly understood.
No wonder Situ Jianâs Species outnumbered other Insect Lords; it was due to this unique ability.
Insect Species are different from others.
Because of their relatively low average Attributes, they often win by numbers, resulting in high Species consumption.
Additionally, the increase in recruitment costs due to racial talent makes Insect Type a money-consuming Species.
However, once resources are abundant, the Insect Type can leverage their numerical advantage to overpower other Type Lords in overall strength.
The higher the Level, the higher the Species limit increased by racial talent.
If two against one doesnât work, then go five against one.
If thatâs insufficient, try ten against one; many ants can bite an elephant to death.
Thus, the Insect Type becomes more terrifying in later stages, especially in large-scale wars.
"By the way,"
Suddenly, Lin You thought of something very important.
"Speaking of corpses, I need to find some for my Cannibal Flower to replicate Skills."
"What kind of corpses are you looking for?" Situ Jian asked.
While high-tier Cannibal Flower Species were rare, as an Emperorâs Son, he knew about their ability to replicate Skills from corpses.
"Undead Grandmaster, I want its Undying Domain."
"Undead Grandmaster? I saw some Undead Type corpses over there," Yan Lie, who was undergoing healing nearby, suddenly interjected.
Lin You followed his pointing direction, noticing a pile of undead bones being gradually cleared by other Lords.
Not daring to waste time, he hurriedly spoke to them and then rushed over with his Species.
Searching through the corpse pile, he quickly found a large number of Undead Grandmaster corpses.
It was truly a case of searching high and low only to find it by accident.
Lin You couldnât help but feel delighted.
He had been wondering where to get such corpses, and now they arrived unexpectedly.
Immediately summoning his recently recalled Cannibal Flower Legion, he had them devour these Undead Grandmaster corpses.
Before long.
Out of 20 Cannibal Flowers, 12 successfully replicated Undying Domain.
To Lin Youâs surprise, the remaining 8 did not replicate the Undead Arrow Rain, a group defense reduction skill, but a different group attack skill.
[Devouring Successful, Skill "Black Hole" Acquired.]
[Due to type transformation, skill changed to "Devouring Black Hole."]
[Devouring Black Hole (Active): Consumes Power of Nature to condense a Devouring Black Hole in a designated range ahead, pulling all enemies within 8 meters to the center, triggering a powerful explosion, causing Spirit 120% damage.]
Overall, not bad.
Considered a small-scale group control and attack skill.
Ordinary skills usually deal damage equal to Spirit, which is 100% damage.
This skill can deal 120% damage, making its output impressively strong.
Most importantly, the Black Holeâs pulling ability can disrupt enemy rear formations, making it ideal for offense and defense battles.
Thus.
Lin Youâs Death Flower Sea was finally reconstructed.
No longer worried about the disadvantage of Species quantity.
"Just right, can gain some experience,"
After skill replication, Lin You couldnât help but look at the pile of Species corpses on the field.
These corpses, numbering at least a hundred thousand, couldnât be wasted.
He promptly continued gathering his Cannibal Flower Legion to devour corpses, accumulating their experience.
Throughout the field, many Lords needing corpses were frantically competing to gather them.
It took less than an hour for all the corpses to be consumed, without even needing someone to clear them away.
Meanwhile, the experience for Lin Youâs twenty Cannibal Flowers was more than half full.
One of them, which devoured the most ferociously, directly reached full value, with its attributes reaching the limit for Tier Eight Ordinary Species.
[Name: Soul-devouring Flower (Ordinary)]
[Race: Plant]
[Level: Tier Eight (5000/5000)]
[Power: 2050 (+2350)]
[Constitution: 2600 (+2500)]
[Agility: 1900 (+2150)]
[Spirit: 2050 (+2400)]
[Skills: Physique Protection, Devouring, Corrosive Acid Liquid, Deprive]
[Introduction: King of Flowers, capable of devouring all things and depriving them of all energy.]
The blessing of the Skills is directly counted into the basic attributes.
The full value of Constitution for a Tier Eight Cannibal Flower is 2000 points, but with the blessing of the Four-leaf Clover Physique Protection, it directly reaches an exaggerated 2600.
Its survival capability is comparable to that of the Royal Family, only slightly inferior to the Close Combat Species with the exclusive talent of Cyan Gang.
Adding the duplicated Heaven-Devouring attribute enhanced by moss, it finally reaches the level of an ordinary Tier Nine Species, and this still doesnât count the aura effect.
Currently, Lin Youâs All Attribute Aura includes Lingxi 10%, Divine Format 30%, Sacred Artifact approximately 35%, totaling 75%.
Combined with the Barbaric Roar, the attributes double to an average level of nine thousand points, with Constitution even directly surpassing ten thousand.
Even ordinary lords find it difficult to break through its defense, let alone kill them.
The fangs of the Four-leaf Clover Species finally begin to reveal themselves, just needing to max out the experience of the other species.
Seeing this, Lin You felt a sudden sense of satisfaction.
After closing the interface, he reunited with Yan Lie inside the Protective Shield to discuss their next plans.
"Do you have any plans?"
Lin You asked.
"We plan to rest a bit, then explore deeper into the Mechanical Empire and hunt Lord Level Demons. Would you like to join?"
Situ Jian revealed their plan.
"Sounds good." Lin You thought for a moment and said, "My Origin Space is just a little short of being full; acting together as three would be more efficient."
"Alright, thatâs settled then. As soon as Yan Lie recovers from his injuries, weâll head out."
"Itâs just a minor injury, no need to wait. We can depart right away."
Yan Lie patted his chest and said carelessly.
Situ Jian glanced at him, uninterested, and turned to the side to rest and prepare for the upcoming battle.
Lin You asked the Elf Sage to continue healing Yan Lie and took the opportunity to check the exchange window for redeemable items.
After about half an hour.
The three of them left the control hub together and delved deeper into the Mechanical Empire.
"Is that person Lin You?"
Inside the control hub, the lords looked at Lin You departing and whispered.
"It must be; I heard Situ Jian call him that just now."
"Itâs really him? I didnât expect his power to be so strong."
"Yeah, feels even stronger than the rumors. If it werenât for him earlier, we probably wouldnât have broken in so easily."
"And his species are brutal; I saw with my own eyes that those species from the Primordial Evil Realm couldnât even break through his speciesâ defense."
"Damn, that powerful?"
"If even the defense couldnât be penetrated, thatâs way too brutal!"
The lords fervently discussed, unable to help but glance toward the direction Lin You and his team took, their hearts overwhelmed with shock.
Nonetheless, no matter how they discussed.
At this time, Lin You, along with Yan Lie and Situ Jian, had already distanced themselves from the control hub, going deeper into the Mechanical Empire, beginning their hunting journey.
...
Eternal Realm.
Inside a palace floating high in the sky.
More than a dozen Great Emperors gathered from various Great Realms.
"How is it? Have you found the whereabouts of that heart?"
Sitting at the head, Qianji Emperor asked quietly.
"No, the heartâs ability to hide its aura is strong, unable to pinpoint a specific location."
"Finding its trail in the Ten Thousand Realms will likely be difficult."
"Indeed, every time we get some tracking done, it breaks off."
The Great Emperors below frowned deeply, speaking consecutively.
Qianji Emperorâs expression turned even more somber at their words, with furrowed brows.
"This heart matters greatly; we must find it quickly. Taking possession of it allows our Ten Thousand Realms conquest plan to truly come to fruition."
"Since thatâs the case, Iâll return to deploy more manpower for reconnaissance."
"Same here, I have sent people to other Realms to search. Weâll find it across all Realms, if need be."
"Letâs wrap up todayâs meeting. Iâll head back to make arrangements."
With those words, all the Great Emperors broke space and disappeared immediately, continuing to dispatch personnel to track the heartâs whereabouts.
Just as they said.
Once they obtain that heartâs terrifying power, they will be able to dominate the Ten Thousand Realms.
Conquering the Ten Thousand Realms is not impossible!
