Swallowing the Stars: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds

Chapter 160 Even the most beautiful woman has to suffer a knife wound.

While the three powerful Zerg Queens were conversing, deep within the secret realm, a massive planet, tens of millions of kilometers in diameter and entirely composed of unknown plant life forms, had become an important settlement for the Queens' will.

Here, hundreds of thousands of immortal Zerg warriors, like precision instruments, are silently and efficiently forming an impenetrable encirclement, surrounding a certain area of ​​the planet.

Surrounding these immortal Zerg warriors are hundreds of millions of peak-level Zerg warriors who completely blot out the sky. Under the supreme will of the Zerg Queen, they are gathering their strength, ready to launch the most brutal attack on their prey at any moment.

At the very center of this massive army of Zerg warriors, Li Che stood with his hands behind his back, calmly watching the Zerg army that blotted out the sky.

This was Li Che's first time fighting against a real Zerg Queen.

As life forms with powerful souls and extremely high intelligence, the Zerg Queens do not control the Zerg swarm by simply sending an endless horde of Zerg to attack. Instead, they have a very, very detailed division of units.

Immortal Zerg warriors specializing in melee attacks, Zerg warriors specializing in defense, Zerg warriors specializing in ranged attacks, Zerg warriors specializing in restraint and control, Zerg warriors producing divine toxins... Such a complex division of labor makes every hunt a perfect war.

Perhaps realizing that the immortal Zerg warriors' melee and defense skills were meaningless to the Cosmic Sovereign, these Zerg warriors were now gathering divine power to attack, and were even all prepared to self-destruct.

Now, Li Che could clearly sense that there were probably a huge number of immortal-level and world-lord-level Zerg warriors charging up and aiming at him, ready to launch a combined attack in his direction at any moment.

Under the unified leadership of the Queen Mother's will, the power of these Zerg warriors can be perfectly concentrated at one point, and the destructive force they unleash cannot be ignored even by the Cosmic Sovereign.

and··:

brush!

While Li Che was pondering, he only saw a flash of light in the space not far away. A huge, trumpet-shaped plant life form teleported to the planet where Li Che was. Its divine power instantly locked onto Li Che's location and activated a space blockade at the level of a cosmic venerable.

"The cosmic sovereign of the Nao spore race?"

Li Che immediately recognized the life essence of this plant that resembled a morning glory. Its race was one of the member races of the human alliance Hongmeng. This race had a universe master within it, making it a powerful race.

However, this plant life form in front of them had clearly become the soul slave of a certain Zerg queen.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

With a wave of a vine, the plant-life cosmic venerable one conjured up hundreds of insectoid warriors from within the world ring, surrounding Li Che from all angles.

Without a doubt, these Zerg warriors are all Zerg at the level of Cosmic Venerables!

"Human, I am Venerable Oak Spore. My master, Venerable Aphid Queen, desires your service!"

After completing all that, the plant life form, Venerable Oak Spore, emitted a calm soul fluctuation, "sincerely" inviting Li Che to join.

Li Che made no comment on this, only glancing casually at Venerable Oak Spore and the various Zerg warriors around him, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Li Che was obviously aware of the news about Venerable Aphid Hill. As the overlord of the Zerg universe, he had obviously put a lot of effort into his hundreds of Zerg warriors. Their basic strength had reached the standard of a mid-level universe venerable, and their divine bodies were generally quite large.

Furthermore, among these immortal insectoid warriors, there was one with a special aura, whose power had reached the standard of a high-level cosmic venerable, and who seemed to possess a set of high-quality treasure armor.

As for the Plant Life Spore Venerable, he was also at the level of a high-level universe venerable, and he also possessed a top-tier set of treasures.

This guy, it's unclear whether he was enslaved during his time as a High Venerable or became a High Venerable after being enslaved.

While Li Che was analyzing the Zerg warriors, not too far away on the Zerg hive, the three Zerg queens were also analyzing Li Che's situation.

"The Human Race's Venerable Guixu was once hailed as a genius that appeared only once in tens of millions of epochs among the human race. Shortly after being crowned a king, he possessed combat power at the level of an invincible king, and in a very short time, he broke through to the level of a Universe Venerable."

As Venerable Aphid Hill listened to the message broadcast by the intelligent assistant, his gaze towards Li Che was filled with greed: "Sister Yuhua, we should try to enslave this human genius with our souls!"

These little guys, who became cosmic rulers over a dozen epochs and then remained at the cosmic ruler stage for only a few dozen epochs, were nothing more than easy targets in the eyes of these Zerg cosmic overlords.

"No rush. There is no record of Venerable Guixu taking action in the clan's information. We don't know what treasures he has."

The other cosmic overlord-level Zerg queen spoke softly, yet appeared remarkably calm.

"Let's try it on the oak spore first!"

"Hold your strength back, don't scare that human away!"

The two cosmic overlord queens exchanged words, while simultaneously ordering the plant life form, the Oak Spore Venerable, to lead a group of cosmic venerable insectoid warriors to besiege Li Che.

As a race renowned throughout the universe for their mastery of soul manipulation, the Zerg Queens are well aware of how difficult it is to enslave a cosmic sage.

Any cosmic master with a bit of background would be extremely cautious when facing the Zerg Queen. If things went slightly wrong, they would decisively self-destruct, since there is still hope of resurrection after death, but being enslaved by the soul would mean the end.

In response, the Zerg queens each have their own methods, including feigning weakness and slowly wearing down the enemy, waiting for the moment when the enemy relaxes their guard to complete the soul enslavement.

"I will go there myself and try to enslave this unparalleled genius of the human race, or at least kill him once."

Just as the two cosmic overlords were discussing, the top cosmic overlord, Lord Yuhua Star, suddenly spoke up, a smile on her pretty face.

"Is Sister Yuhua going to take action herself?"

"Sister, be careful! This human venerable one is a disciple of the Lord of the Human Universe!"

Upon hearing this, both cosmic overlords showed expressions of surprise, and then smiled and offered their reminders.

In reality, both of the cosmic overlord queens were extremely unwilling.

An opportunity to enslave human lords is also very precious to these Zerg queens, especially given the certainty that Liche can at least become a high-level cosmic lord.

However, the gap between them and the Lord of Rain Flower Star was quite large.

These ordinary cosmic overlords have genetic levels that are 100 times the limit of their reproductive populations, while the Rain Flower Star Lord's genes are a full 1800 times greater.

The difference in strength represented by basic power instilled in these ordinary cosmic overlords an instinctive fear of the Rain Flower Star Lord.

"brush!"

Seeing that her two younger sisters had no objections, Venerable Yuhua smiled with satisfaction, activated her teleportation ability, and she and her Zerg mother hive disappeared from the spot in an instant.
