Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 301 Eight Innate Beast Gods and Twelve Peak Bloodline Giant Beasts

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

To integrate the talents of the Flame God Clan into the human being, a thorough analysis of the Flame God Clan is necessary; this is a work meticulously crafted by a God-King.

It's not that easy to just 'copy' it over.

Of course, there is a solution.

For example, by using the method of making 'bloodline potions', one can extract the blood and flesh of their original race and then inject it into their own body.

When Qin Ming became the disciple of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler, he obtained a Desolate God Clan bloodline potion, which further enhanced his soul talent.

Similar methods exist in the secret techniques of many top bloodline apothecaries.

However, there is no bloodline potion of the Yan God Clan among them, so it needs to be studied and analyzed again.

Moreover, this is a kind of trick. The method of using divine power is to thoroughly analyze its gene structure diagram, and then modify its own genes based on this.

This involves many factors.

"No rush, take your time. The most unique aspect of the Yan God Clan is their ability to increase gene multipliers. However, this increase is too subtle and difficult to observe."

However, Luo Feng has already obtained the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual," so directly observing the operation of the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual" within Luo Feng's body, combined with this approach, should significantly reduce the difficulty.

Qin Ming was not in a hurry.

The talent of the Flame God Clan is helpful for the divine power flow, but if it is a ten-thousand-fold gene enhancement, one can completely forcefully pile on the resources!
Right now, he's just laying the foundation for himself.

The human being, through the amplification of the power of Bloodlust, has had its genetic multiplication reach 6000 times!
Although he had reached the limit of the Bloodlust Power's amplitude, the special life corpse given to him by the Dark Master allowed him to continue to improve.

Whether it can reach 10081 times is hard to say, but reaching 10,000 times the gene count is definitely not a problem.

It becomes increasingly difficult to increase gene fold size as the gene multiplication rate increases.

Even with the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, Luo Feng encountered a bottleneck when his human form was increased to 10081 times. After reaching 10050 times, the improvement in his genetic level was directly blocked.

It stalled when it was just a hair's breadth away from achieving "perfect genes." No matter how much it continued to cultivate the "Nine Tribulations Secret Manual," the level of its life genes would not increase by the slightest.

He finally broke through to the next level after cultivating the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual to the very end.

Qin Ming wondered if he would encounter the same problem if he used the essence of flesh and blood extracted from the flesh and blood of the eight great beast gods to improve himself.

But it's always good to have two options in advance.

Even with resource enhancement, it would take at least several hundred years to increase the gene multiplication rate to the level of ten thousand times.

This period of time can be used well.

"Ok?"

As he was pondering this, Qin Ming suddenly paused, listened carefully to the Dark Lord's telepathic message, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.

"The high-level human council has approved granting me a portion of the flesh and remains of the eight great beast gods?"

……

Initial universe, Chaos City.

Qin Ming's soul clone left inside quickly went to the City Lord's Mansion and obtained a World Ring from the Dark Master. This World Ring contained the flesh and blood of the eight innate beast gods.

Incidentally, information on the eight naturally born beast gods among the human race was also made public to him.

This includes videos of the hunt for the eight Beast Gods, as well as battle footage.

"Is this the scene when the Golden Beast God fell?"

Within the virtual universe, Qin Ming stared in awe at one of the scenes, where the most powerful figures among the human races, such as the Lord of Chaos City, the Lord of Penggong, and the Founder of the Giant Axe, were prominently displayed.

Qin Ming immediately spotted one of the figures, which was about 10,000 kilometers tall, with silvery-white skin and thousands of tentacles on its head.

The figure walked barefoot on the waves, holding a mottled, scarred stone club, and wearing what appeared to be an ordinary garment. Thousands of objects emitted sounds that penetrated the soul, and every thread of the garment was like a rushing river.

That was clearly one of the Chaos City Lord's signature treasures—the Thousand Treasures River.

Beside him stood a burly man with a rugged, savage appearance, wielding a giant axe. Further away were dozens of other powerful beings with astonishing auras.

Surrounded by numerous powerful figures, the golden unicorn lizard roared, trying to break free, but fell again and again.

In the end, they could only perish in despair, their blood staining the earth.

The grandeur of the scene deeply moved Qin Ming.

"That's terrible. There must have been at least forty universe lords involved, right?"

Qin Ming shook his head. He had seen many images of this when he was on the Blood Luo Continent, such as the sky-covering giant hand that descended from the sky, or the terrifying axe light.

He had suspected at the time that the owner of that giant hand might be the Lord of Chaos City or the creator of the giant axe, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.

After carefully reviewing the scenes and information about the fall of the eight innate beast gods and gaining a detailed understanding of them, Qin Ming then looked at the flesh and remains of the eight beast gods.

Among these fleshy corpses, the largest number belonged to the Golden Beast God. This should be the flesh and blood from part of the forelimbs, weighing at least a million kilograms including skin and bones.

It's almost the same as the other seven great beast gods combined.

The reasons for this are explained in the materials.

The annihilation of the eight innate beast gods was a grand event for the entire universe, and the human race only got a share of it.

The hunt for the Golden Beast God took place within human territory.

Human beings receive the most from nature.

As for the rest, they are located in the territories of other races. Even the human universe master could only snatch a portion of them, which were mostly fragments of flesh, scales, and so on.

Don't assume that just because they are scraps of flesh and blood, they are worthless.

The Beast God is born from the essence of the universe, a natural treasure. Its scales, its fur, its blood—everything possesses extraordinary effects. Even the Lord of the Universe would be driven mad by its allure.

These naturally born beast god flesh and blood, if exchanged, would be worth at least several high-grade treasures.

After returning to the Netherworld, Qin Ming did not rush to refine it. Instead, he tried to use his Flesh and Blood Evolution talent to analyze its genetic structure and construct a genetic map.

Rumbling--

The underworld trembled violently, emitting a roaring sound, like a roaring engine running at full power.

"This is?"

Qin Ming's eyes lit up; this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

It's not that it can't be analyzed.

Rather, it is because the genetic composition of the innate beast god is too complex, causing the Myriad Soul Banner, or rather the Netherworld, to begin to exert all its strength.

This is not a bad thing.

The stronger the eight innate beast gods are, the greater the possibility that their gene multiplier will directly break through to 10081.

"Is it because the Golden Beast God is too powerful, or because its genetic makeup has undergone a qualitative change?"

Qin Ming didn't know, but he was more inclined to believe the latter.

The top-tier special life form 'Thunder Whale King' bestowed upon us by the Dark Teacher has reached the level of a top-tier cosmic overlord, and is not much weaker than a cosmic lord.

However, the Netherworld can still be easily analyzed, although it is a bit slower, but there is no such commotion.

It is more likely that the Golden Beast God's gene multiplier reached 10081, resulting in a qualitative change that made analysis extremely difficult.

"It seems that the Myriad Soul Banner needs to be upgraded to the seventh rank to achieve normal analysis. Through this period of hunting, the diameter of the Netherworld has exceeded eight trillion kilometers."

One light-year isn't very far.

After trying out the bloodlines of all eight innate beast gods, Qin Ming did not force himself to analyze them further.

"If we can't analyze the eight innate beast gods, we can analyze the twelve peak bloodlines first to accumulate some knowledge. The twelve peak bloodline star beasts are descendants of the eight innate beast gods."

There must be some things in common.

With a thought, Qin Ming directly entered the treasure vault of the Virtual Universe Company, and then quickly searched it to find the twelve peak bloodline behemoths.

Humanity's treasure trove contains even the Zerg Queen, so naturally it wouldn't lack the twelve peak-bloodline star beasts, whether dead or alive.

Although it was quite valuable, Qin Ming could easily buy it with the resources he had.

For an individual, the twelve peak-level star behemoths are extremely rare.

But for the human race, it's nothing.

Even a human-vassal race like the Golden Horned Clan could enslave a colossal beast, let alone humans.

The Starry Sky Beast Alliance will not interfere with this behavior.

As long as one has not reached the level of immortality.

The Starry Sky Beast Alliance does not recognize it at all, let alone invite it.

It's quite remarkable that this brutal method of cultivation didn't lead to the extinction of the race; instead, they became one of the nine top powers in the primordial universe.

Qin Ming was actually very curious about the relationship between the peak bloodline starry sky behemoth and the eight innate beast gods.

How exactly did these eight innate beast gods manage to reproduce a race?

Although the number of cosmic behemoths is small, it is still astonishing in the context of the entire primordial universe, and the stronger they are, the more difficult it is for them to reproduce.

Qin Ming once thought this was a giant star beast trying to flatter himself.

But as it turns out, this is not the case.

In the original timeline, after Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast broke the hundredfold limit, it easily increased its gene multiplier to ten thousandfold by relying on the hundredfold amplitude of the Blood Crystal.

It is not subject to the same limitations or weakening as the human form itself.

Furthermore, the fact that the old Beast God of the Starry Sky Beast Alliance possesses a microcosm, which is the 64 Beast God statues in the Beast God Realm, also indicates that their relationship is quite close.

"Never mind all that, let's take a two-pronged approach. We'll increase the gene multiplier by investing resources, while also researching the Flame God Clan, the Starry Sky Beasts, and the Blood of the Beast God."

There are two shortcuts to increasing gene multiplication in the primordial universe.

One of them is the Flame God Clan.

The other one is the route of the Peak Bloodline Starry Sky Beast and the Eight Great Beast Gods.

After spending 20 Treasure Points to acquire the Starry Sky Beast he needed, Qin Ming became completely absorbed in the experience.

In addition to increasing gene multipliers, they also focused on comprehending laws and cultivating, creating secret techniques, researching and manufacturing spirit-nourishing elixirs, and developing the Flame God Clan and Starry Sky Beasts based on bloodline flow.

As for the Soul Palace, it was entirely handled by Irina.

Hunting, enhancing the Netherworld, and creating Spirit Nourishing Potions are all handled by specialized personnel, so Qin Ming doesn't need to worry about them at all.

……

A century has passed in the blink of an eye.

Qin Ming was completely immersed in cultivation, and his strength improved in all aspects in an almost astonishing way.

The external situation is also constantly changing.

He was awakened by a violent tremor in the underworld.
