Chapter 360 Laying out the battlefield, transforming into an insectoid race
Ye Yang traversed into this spatial fragment, and then raised his hand to activate the power of his inner world.
Instantly, his enormous inner world burst forth with invisible power, connecting with the fragment of space and projecting a phantom of the world. The phantom and the real approached each other, finally overlapping and merging amidst a thunderous roar.
That illusory world eventually became real, becoming part of the divine kingdom!
"Divine Kingdom—"
Ye Yang felt all of this. At this moment, everything inside this divine kingdom was under his control, and its power was boundless!
Even if a supreme being of the universe were to find this place, they would not be able to easily destroy this divine kingdom!
After all, even though Ye Yang is only an Immortal now, the size and power of his divine kingdom are already comparable to those of many Universe Venerables.
"However, the divine kingdom is ultimately a vital point. Once it is destroyed, even if its strength can be preserved, there will be no possibility of further progress. If we are driven to the divine kingdom, that will be the most critical moment."
Ye Yang muttered to himself as he casually erected a Flame Temple in the center of the divine kingdom, a manifestation of the divine kingdom's central core.
Looking into the distance, the borders of the divine kingdom continue to expand.
On the land of the divine kingdom, countless mycelia grew. Ye Yang had spread out that fungal planet, turning it into something like a carpet spread throughout the divine kingdom.
There are also many bacterial communities that mimic various plant and animal communities, living instinctively in different continents and oceans.
It appears to be a vibrant scene of life and all things flourishing, but once it fully erupts and burns its divine body, combined with the power of the divine kingdom, this fungal clone could easily annihilate a cosmic venerable!
"The core microbial community remains within the divine realm, and normally operates outside in the form of differentiated microbial communities, humans, and giant beasts."
Ye Yang gazed at his divine kingdom for a long time before finally coming back to his senses.
The other two groups have also successfully established their divine kingdoms.
He grinned. "Then it's time to get started on the arrangements."
The Seventh Extraterritorial Battlefield.
Ye Yang's first clone descended upon this place once again.
However, this time, in addition to his human clone and giant beast clone, he also brought many differentiation spores.
Each spore, after being reverse transcribed with a specific gene, can differentiate into a new bacterial community!
"Currently, there are 84 known Immortal-level Zerg Queens active in the Seventh Extraterrestrial Battlefield, while the number of World Lord-level Queens is in the hundreds of thousands. The difference between the two is obvious, which shows how difficult it is for the Zerg Queen race to advance to Immortality."
Despite Ye Yang's tutelage, his two Zerg Queens, Irina and Xia Beina, both at the Realm Lord level, have yet to reach the standard required for a Queen to break through to immortality, which is something that can't be helped.
The Realm Lord Mother Queen is no longer of much use to Ye Yang; only those at the Immortal level can barely take a look at her.
-
If Ye Yang could control 100 Immortal Queens, and then use mycelial parasitism to coordinate and adjust them, it wouldn't be difficult for hundreds of millions of Immortal Zerg warriors to launch a joint attack.
A combined attack from hundreds of millions of immortals would instantly annihilate even a high-level cosmic venerable!
"Let the fungal avatars do the attack and capture of the Immortal Mother Queen, while my six human and behemoth avatars will continue to cultivate, comprehend, and improve the secret techniques."
After assigning tasks to his various clones, Ye Yang began a new phase of accumulation and reflection.
Not long after, after consulting with the Lord of Chaos City, the Lord of Chaos City called out to Ye Yang: "Ye Yang, come here."
He pointed to the cluster of palaces below Thunder Island and said, "Here reside all the immortal gods of my Virtual Universe Company, while on the mountainside of the Central Mountain Range resides the Cosmic Venerable of my Virtual Universe Company."
"The palace atop the mountain is inhabited by the Lord of the Universe, as well as some extremely powerful cosmic overlords—"
Ye Yang already knew what Teacher Chaos was going to say.
"You should have the strength of a Universe Venerable by now, right? Then find a place on this mountainside to build a palace."
"I'll use my privileges to create another virtual dimension for you —"
This was within Ye Yang's expectations. The Chaos City Lord believed that he had the strength of a Universe Venerable, so he directly provided him with the treatment he could within the Virtual Universe Company.
After the Lord of Chaos finished speaking, Ye Yang nodded and replied, "This disciple understands."
-
Although this would cause dissatisfaction among most of the Yu Shen Venerables, Ye Yang was not worried; time would prove everything.
After quietly building the palace on the mountainside, Ye Yang immediately resumed his cultivation and the planning of the extraterritorial battlefield.
However, his act of building a palace on the mountainside could not be kept secret. Some venerable figures discovered it that very day, and were displeased, so they began to spread the news within their circles.
"Isn't Ye Yang a bit too arrogant? An Immortal actually building a temple on the mountainside of Thunder Island?"
"That must be the meaning of the Lord of Chaos City."
"Even if it was at the behest of the Lord of the Universe, he shouldn't be so lacking in self-awareness! Could an Immortal possibly possess the combat power of a Venerable?"
In a virtual universe gathering, several cosmic venerables gathered together to discuss Ye Yang's affairs.
"I saw him the day he broke through; his divine body's aura was incredibly powerful—" At this moment, a half-human, half-tiger Venerable said in a deep voice, "In terms of divine body aura, it's even stronger than Venerable Fufeng's."
The most emotional person among them was Venerable Fufeng. The moment this half-human, half-tiger Venerable spoke, Venerable Fufeng lost face.
He stared with his large, round eyes and said, "So what?"
"Even if one's divine body rivals that of a Venerable One, how easily can the gap in laws and secret techniques be bridged?"
Generally speaking, the difference in strength between the peak of immortality and the Venerable is at least a thousand times, with the difference in divine physique alone reaching a hundred times. If we take into account the difference in the understanding of laws and the sophistication of secret techniques, the difference of ten thousand times or even a hundred thousand times is quite normal.
Even the most extraordinary kings can only protect themselves temporarily in the hands of a venerable being.
If the battle drags on, defeat is inevitable!
Unless it is an extremely extraordinary special life form, with not only a life gene multiplier of thousands of times, a divine body strength comparable to an ordinary Venerable, but also a special talent secret technique with immense power, it is possible to reach the level of being comparable to an ordinary Venerable.
It's like using talent to bridge the gap between laws and secret techniques.
But Ye Yang is human. Even if he has the ability to create clones, his human or Golden Horned Beast foundation makes it impossible for him to give birth to those extremely powerful and heaven-defying special life clones. This is something that all the Universe Venerables present understand.
"Fu Feng is right. That Ye Yang can only approach the combat strength of a Venerable, but he can never be on par with us!"
"Even if he can barely reach the threshold of Venerable-level combat power, that would only be comparable to the weakest Venerables who have just been promoted. But in reality, where would a Universe Venerable rush out to cause trouble without taking a moment to reflect after being promoted?"
The venerable ones were all talking at once, making various comparisons and claiming victory in every way.
Because of the Chaos City Lord, they dared not directly curse him, but they were willing to use various comparative analyses to belittle him.
Their pride, built up over countless years, would not allow a so-called genius with no achievements to suddenly emerge and claim to be on equal footing with them.
A minority believed that the Chaos City Lord must have his reasons for doing so, and that Ye Yang might actually be a Universe Venerable with Venerable-level combat power. Faced with this situation, they could only remain silent or agree.
We can't go against everyone's opinion over something like this, can we?
"Let's see if Ye Yang's record after breaking through to become an immortal can justify his actions."
The seventh extraterrestrial battlefield, the Fire Spear Continent.
A blue figure sped along at high speed, its divine might overwhelming, causing countless immortals traveling or fighting on the continent to tremble and cower in fear wherever it passed.
"Hahaha—Chimi, you have nowhere to run now!"
The high-ranking immortal god in the blue light laughed wildly as he chased after the powerful demon race warriors ahead.
"Coo! Why did you betray me?" The powerful demon, resembling an owl, turned his head 180 degrees to look back, his eyes filled with resentment and anger.
"Haha! You'll find out soon enough."
The blue-glowing figure laughed wildly. At that moment, another King-level expert suddenly appeared on the ground—a peak King-level expert!
boom!
The sneak attack happened in an instant, and the immortal demon was knocked to the ground.
"The master said to beat him until he falls into a deep sleep!"
The two immortal kings communicated telepathically.
Just as the immortal demon was about to continue resisting, the suddenly appearing peak-level King-level expert raised a special pointed treasure.
boom!
The immortal aura of the demon race plummeted and declined, and it stopped struggling and fell into a deep sleep.
"Success! Let's go! Take it back to our master—"
They carried away the immortal demon who had been cast into slumber and soon arrived at a corner of the continent, inside a deeply hidden fiery cave.
"Lei Luo, we've caught that bird." The two said to the other king inside, releasing the sleeping demon god's body.
The immortal called Lei Luo opened his eyes, glanced at it, and then put it into his world ring. He then took out two orbs of light: "Master is very satisfied. This is a reward for you."
The two of them immediately looked happy.
However, the three of them suddenly changed their expressions. Just as they were about to do something, the world ring in Lei Luo's hand suddenly exploded!
As the ring loses its supporting structure, the world inside it overlaps with outer space, causing all the items inside to explode out.
Countless mycelia were scattered everywhere, yet they exuded an extremely powerful aura of divine energy.
These mycelia—are the divine body of some immortal deity! They are currently burning with divine power!
"Owner!"
Those soul servants heard the angry roar of resentment through the soul link, but were powerless to do anything about it.
The mycelium merely diverted and emitted streams of ethereal divine power, which directly penetrated the bodies of these soul servant gods, causing them to be forever trapped in the illusion.
The entire cave quickly fell silent.
brush!
The mycelium converged, mimicking Ye Yang's human appearance.
"The fourth one is still active in the Seventh Domain Outer Battlefield and is second only to the four Immortal Mother Queens of Nan Cheng in strength."
A slender, beautiful figure flew out from the massive mother nest that burst forth from the world ring, landing in front of Ye Yang and respectfully kneeling, saying, "Master."
Ye Yang nodded. In this way, his first clone now had 31 Immortal Queens under his command.
"According to the intelligence gathered, the second and third clones also captured 34 and 29 Immortal Queens respectively in two other extraterrestrial battlefields. The number of Zerg Queens is already scarce, and with me capturing so many Immortal Queens, they'll probably be so angry they'll flip the table if things get out."
Ye Yang's behavior was indeed exceptionally audacious.
But now that he has mastered the theory of thought algorithms, he is no longer afraid of soul attacks.
He can create a sub-personality at the True Monarch level that is not based on the soul's thinking. Once it realizes that the main personality has lost its autonomy, it will immediately activate the emergency mechanism.
At least Ye Yang had the opportunity to self-destruct his clone.
Even if the Lord of the Universe were to personally intervene, he could kill him, but he could not control his soul!
Of course, Ye Yang wasn't confident enough to be considered a top-tier figure in the universe.
However, this is the primordial universe, where the power of all single-target attacks is restricted to the level of a sixth-order universe master.
"Come here, don't resist."
Ye Yang beckoned the Immortal Mother Queen closer, then raised his hand to inject mycelium into her body, forming special tree-like veins.
Even though the Queen Mother's soul has been enslaved and communication can be achieved through a soul link, to transmit extremely complex battlefield information in real time, it is necessary to implant fungal hyphae, which are part of Ye Yang's divine body!
Of course, since the loss of a divine body is equivalent to the loss of a soul for an immortal god, resulting in a significant loss of strength, Ye Yang did not replace the mother queen's body tissues, but simply implanted additional mycelium to allow it to lie dormant.
As Ye Yang's soul servant, she wouldn't resist, so even if she sensed the foreign object inside her body, she wouldn't try to clean it or fight it off, allowing the mycelium to remain inside her.
"Once I thoroughly study the thought processes of these world-devouring Zerg queens, not only will my theoretical understanding advance further, but I can also upload their consciousness and use my own fungal divine body to create the Zerg army I truly desire!"
Ye Yang's idea was simple: since the original strain could reverse transcribe the genes of species below the life gene level by 1006 times and then mimic these species, he would use this method to cultivate Zerg warriors!
Given the immense size of the fungal clones, let alone 100 million Zerg warriors, even hundreds of billions, trillions, or trillions wouldn't be impossible. Just imagine: 100 trillion Zerg warriors, each with a divine body at the peak of immortality with a life gene level 1006 times greater, further controlled by billions of Queen Mother personalities—
Everything will have to wait until the soul of the Zerg Queen is fully understood. The Queen's servants captured now are merely personality samples and temporary tools.
Of course, besides the Immortal Mother Queen, Ye Yang also did not let go of the occasional World Lord-level Mother Queens he encountered. He had essentially clashed with the Zerg, since this race was so compatible with his fungal avatar.
"Shabena, summon the Queen Mothers of all the Space Law Study Groups!"
The first fungal clone's consciousness returned to its own divine kingdom, and Ye Yang transmitted commands to the realm's master, Empress Xia Beina.
Soon, a total of 218 Realm Lord Queens arrived before Ye Yang, shouting with utmost respect and fervor, "Your Majesty!"
Before them stood a figure radiating a suffocating divine power.
This figure also had cicada-like wings on its back, and its face was strange and androgynous, barely resembling Ye Yang.
It is the immortal queen body formed by the mimicry of fungal leaves!
Since a body formed by fungal mimicry cannot give birth to a completely new soul, even though this body possesses all the talents and abilities of the Zerg Queen, it must be controlled by Ye Yang personally.
This is also why he had to create a true Zerg Queen persona.
Simultaneously controlling billions of immortal warriors is something even those who have abandoned their humanity cannot do; even those who have transcended humanity rely on the division of labor and cooperation of countless alternate personalities.
Leave professional tasks to professionals.
"I will demonstrate this spatial technique to you again. Try to remember the feeling in your body when you use it."
Ye Yang directly manipulated the bodies of these Realm Master Queens through the mycelium that parasitized them, using spatial secret techniques!
This goes a step further than "hands-on teaching" and can be called "neural teaching of neuron".
The queens immediately felt as if they were personally performing this incredibly ingenious spatial technique, making it much easier for them to comprehend it.
