Chapter 158 Elisa, Advancement Successful
The fierce battle that swept across the star field in the extraterrestrial battlefield did not penetrate the tranquil barrier that isolated Lin Yi's divine kingdom from everything.
In the core of this nascent universe, a divine kingdom dominated by his will, wisps of law energy flowed around the magnificent and towering Zerg mother hive like gentle streams.
"Buzz—Click—"
The purplish-gold mystical runes flowing across the surface of the Mother Nest slowly dimmed, and a powerful soul barrier separating the inside from the outside receded like a tide. The deep core entrance at the center of the Mother Nest slowly opened like the eye of the universe.
A graceful figure stepped out from within.
The Zerg Queen Elisa breaks through to the Venerable Realm!
Lin Yi's gaze instantly focused on her.
With just one glance, Lin Yi felt a chill run down his spine! The Elisa before him had undergone a complete transformation compared to six months ago! She still possessed that captivating beauty, but the aura surrounding her now held an indescribable depth and nobility!
Deep within his purple-gold eyes, there seemed to be a vortex of souls where billions of stars were born and died. Just by standing there quietly, he exuded an invisible soul pressure, which made Lin Yi feel a primal tremor!
Soul Crystal!
That crystallized essence of soul origin, which was derived from the fusion of Queen Alicia's core, was indeed incredibly potent!
At this moment, the pure soul pressure emanating from Alicia far surpassed that of Alicia, whom he had severely injured in the past!
Lin Yi had no doubt that if he had faced Elisa now, his galaxy-shaking punch would have been less effective and might have even led to a tough battle!
"Elisa," Lin Yi suppressed the turmoil in his heart and asked directly, "What is your current strength?"
Upon hearing this, Elisa's lips curled into a captivating smile that could eclipse the stars. Her purple-gold eyes, which held the secrets of the universe's soul, shone like the most dazzling diamonds, reflecting Lin Yi's figure directly.
She stepped forward lightly, bowed gracefully, her posture elegant as if praising a deity: "Reporting to my master~"
Her voice was ethereal and melodious, yet carried a confidence that came from the depths of her soul: "If we only consider soul attacks—"
She slightly raised her head, a flash of purple-gold light in her eyes, and an invisible soul storm swept over Lin Yi's divine body in an instant. Although it was easily suppressed by his powerful will, it was enough to make ordinary universe overlords change color!
"—I can defeat any cosmic overlord who lacks a top-tier soul defense treasure in a one-on-one fight!"
Immediately afterwards, she lightly tapped the air with her jade-like finger, as if sketching a grand war blueprint: "If we cooperate with the Zerg swarm—with enough time and resources, Elisa can nurture 100,000 elite Zerg warriors at the 'King's Limit' level for her master!"
Her voice carried a destructive chill: "A combined attack of ten thousand souls at the pinnacle of the King-level is enough to annihilate any high-ranking cosmic venerable in an instant! Even a cosmic overlord-level being, without special defensive measures, would suffer severe damage from a single strike!"
Lin Yi secretly admired her: "As expected! The Venerable-level Queen Mother who has fused with the Soul Saint Crystal is indeed extraordinary! She is much stronger than an ordinary Venerable-level Zerg Queen Nest. Whether it is the individual soul cultivation or the power of the swarm's combined attack, it far surpasses the ordinary."
However, Lin Yi's willingness to go to any lengths, even at the cost of becoming an enemy of the Zerg, to bring Alicia back and enslave her was not for these superficial combat strengths.
What he valued was the Zerg Queen's unparalleled special abilities. Getting straight to the point, he asked, "The Zerg warriors are diverse; which types are you skilled at breeding?"
Elisa straightened her back proudly, her purple-gold hair moving without wind: "Reporting to Master, Elisa diligently studied and laid an incredibly solid foundation when she reached the King-level realm! In addition, by fusing with the Soul Holy Crystal, the power of my soul's origin has been greatly enhanced, and my perception and control abilities have reached unprecedented heights. Raising Zerg warriors is as natural to me as breathing. I am proficient in all Zerg units, whether common or rare."
"Proficient in all Zerg units?!" Lin Yi was slightly surprised, but then felt it was only natural.
Elisa is, after all, a Zerg Queen of the Venerable level.
"Yes, Master." Elisa nodded slightly, her tone extremely confident. "All Zerg units are skilled in breeding. Which type would you like me to breed, Master?"
Lin Yi was secretly delighted, as this made it easier to realize his plan. He hurriedly asked, "I need you to cultivate Zerg to enhance your ability to enslave souls, do you have any?"
Elisa nodded: "Yes, the Spirit Crystal Clan, the Naisu Clan, the Void Spirit Clan—more than a dozen insect races can all enhance soul amplitude."
Lin Yi asked, "Can I let you enslave the cosmic overlord?"
Elisa: ————
"Master—every universe overlord is a renowned super being in the original universe. They are titles that arose from the huge gap between the universe venerable and the universe judge. Although they are not as heaven-defying as the universe judge, they are by no means comparable to the universe venerable."
"I can enslave cosmic lords relatively easily, but to enslave cosmic overlords, I would have to reduce their divine bodies to one-tenth of their original size."
"Only when the divine body is compressed to one-tenth of its original strength, leaving only a fraction of its original power, is there any hope of enslavement!"
Lin Yi nodded in understanding.
He himself is a cosmic overlord-level combatant. The Life-Eating Vine perfectly inherited the life multiple of the World Tree's branches, which is why it has combat power comparable to a cosmic overlord-level combatant. Even a clone with only fifty percent of its power can suppress a high-level cosmic venerable.
A high-level cosmic venerable is still just a venerable, a venerable in one space.
The cosmic overlord is the absolute ruler of a star field; the difference is still quite significant.
Elisa can now enslave cosmic beings who lack soul-defense treasures, but even with her full power, she cannot enslave cosmic overlords.
However, Lin Yi was not disappointed and continued to ask, "For the Zerg focused on offensive operations, what is the strength of the strongest single unit you can cultivate?"
Lin Yi knew that the Zerg could be divided into several types based on their abilities, such as scouting, attacking, assassins, and ranged attackers.
A thoughtful look appeared on Elisa's pretty face. After thinking for a moment, she said, "The strongest single-target assault unit is—the Dragon Tank Flame Worm."
"Dragon Tan Flame Worm?" A hint of curiosity flashed in Lin Yi's eyes. "Let me see."
Elisa smiled gently and pointed her jade-like finger lightly at the vast, lush meadow beside her, composed of pure life energy.
"Buzz—!"
The space seemed to have been violently distorted and rippled as if a giant rock had been thrown into the lake!
A savage, violent, and terrifying aura, seemingly capable of burning down the stars, suddenly descended!
With a heavy, muffled thud, like an ancient behemoth trampling the earth, a massive, pitch-black figure, so large it obscured the view, tore through the folds of space and landed fiercely on the grass!
Longtan Flame Worm!
This is a colossal creature that is over 100 kilometers tall!
