Chapter 410 - 404: Emperor Level Insect Mother
This fixed star system has no life planet, let alone a Source Star, belonging to the most ordinary of star systems in the vast Star Sea of the Cosmos.
Such a star system, after the Insect Race occupied it, grew increasingly battered and scarred, pitted beyond recognition.
In the near future, only remnants will remain here; all essential matter will be consumed completely, transformed into supplies for the burgeoning Insect Race, with the consequence that no civilization will ever hope to emerge here again.
The strength of the Insect Race lies in their terrifying reproductive capacity, the Insect Sea Tactics coupled with a full range of troops, following the Mother Insect’s commands. Their unified combat power is very formidable.
Their supreme leader, the Emperor-level Mother Insect, who nurtures all the insect hordes, resides within the fiery blaze of the star.
The core of the star system is a gigantic fire-red ball, the star burning matter releasing endless energy, eternal light and heat radiating forth.
Amidst the towering flames, shadow after shadow of insects shuttle back and forth, all are gigantic Insect King-level creatures, they guard the imperial nest while extracting the star’s energy to grow.
The nest seems to have layers of light films, isolating the flames and heat, transparent paths emerge, and Mother Insects walk out one by one.
Wang Xuan observes this imperial nest through the eyes of the Flying Mantis Ant King, constantly amazed because the entire nest’s material is surprisingly constructed using space.
The space here is severely gnawed, like a large piece of glass with hollowed voids inside, layer upon layer of space intricately intertwined, making the nest a maze-like existence.
Wormhole technology, space folding technology, all manifest within this nest, biological power and technological power at this moment create such an intersection.
Space is very complex, at least Wang Xuan cannot currently grasp such power, but that Emperor-level Mother Insect can utilize and construct such a space nest, clearly learned and mighty, making many Federation scientists ashamed.
The closer to the center, the more complex the space becomes, clearly flames as far as one can see, yet upon advancing, another world is discovered.
A thousand meters on the star, within the intricate nest space, corners too numerous to count, even the Insect King’s Queen requires a quarter hour’s time.
It should be noted that they compare to the Jade Platform Peak, able to travel hundreds of miles in an instant, a quarter hour is enough for them to cross a hundred thousand miles, thus the complexity and mystery of the Path of Space is evident.
The closer to the center, the more numerous the inspecting guards become, even the Queen of the Flying Mantis Ant Clan must accept inspection to pass smoothly.
"This imperial nest, Jade Platform Peak guards number a thousand, adding those insect queens there are even more.
As for Half-Step True Tier beings, probably no less than twenty entities, then True-tier creatures, fear not just an Emperor-level Mother Insect."
Wang Xuan continually estimates that this time wishing to conquer these insect races single-handedly is rather difficult, but not impossible.
As long as they cannot withstand his single strike, deploying the Endless Sword, at a certain cost, he can annihilate thousands upon thousands of Celestial Tier creatures in an instant.
Besides annihilating all powerful Insect Kings and Queens, there exists another option: directly subjugate the Emperor-level Mother Insect, to hold the Celestial Emperor and command the Dukes!
"Seems like today, a fierce battle is inevitable." Wang Xuan muttered in his heart.
Peak of Divine Infant yet possessing Early Period Grotto Void combat power in the true form, plus the Jade Platform Peak Clone Emperor Xuan, to kill one or two Grotto Void True Tier levels is still hopeful.
Inside the insect nest, reserves of an immense amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, such as Nine Heavens Profound Iron, Essence of Water, Earth Soul Yellow Earth, etc., perhaps not too high in grade, yet tremendous in quantity, all piled up.
After a long time, Wang Xuan, through the eyes of flying mantis ants, amid numerous insect queens and kings having an audience with their emperor, saw clearly the form of the Emperor-level Mother Insect.
It was a flesh mass with a diameter of thousands of meters, white and continually writhing, a casual twitch, its flesh undulates like waves in the sea, bizarre and repulsive.
Thousands of Insect Kings and Mothers gathered in the great hall, surrounding the Emperor-level Mother Insect, beginning a special ceremony.
Offering their loyalty, demonstrating their strength, reporting their clan’s condition, this was the agenda of this audience.
"Begin." A Spiritual Power radiated from the flesh insect, the powerful Spiritual Power shattered nearby Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
The obedient insect queens and kings, approached the large flesh mass, spewing a ball of Life Origin, offering it to the Emperor-level Mother Insect.
Insect queens and kings deprived of part of their Life Origin, started to retreat one by one, their bodies instantly fell weak, combat power dropped by at least thirty percent, recovering requires a few months’ time.
The white flesh mass seemed like steamed white buns, consuming Life Origin one mouthful at a time, its aura gradually growing stronger.
An hour later, the white flesh mass turned into a cocoon, upon breaking, out emerged a dragon-shaped creature.
Dragon! Especially a True Dragon, upon adulthood easily reaching the level of Demon Saint, even becoming known as Immortal Great Saint is possible.
In front of Wang Xuan’s present eyes, emerged a True Dragon, and it’s his own eyes witnessing the transformation of an insect into a dragon.
"Could it be, it’s deducing the True Dragon’s bloodline? There is some resemblance, just unknown how much of the True Dragon’s talents it possesses."
Attempting to deduce the True Dragon’s bloodline, even if this Emperor-level Mother Insect received Dragon Blood, it’s impossible, as the True Dragon’s bloodline is too complex and mysterious.
Yet being able to deduce to this level, transforming into a dragon-shaped creature, demonstrates the Emperor-level Mother Insect’s might, in the realm of genes and bloodlines, it has ventured far.
No wonder a mere insect can nurture thousands of different species of insect clans, transforming into a massive army that sweeps across regions.
Hour after hour passed, the Emperor-level Mother Insect continually cocooned, once broken Wang Xuan saw True Dragon, Phoenix, Golden Crow, Ba Snake, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Qilin, etc.
The transformed divine beasts all bore remarkable resemblances and carried a bit of their divine essence, Wang Xuan observed, this Emperor-level Mother Insect has indeed understood many mysteries of the Divine Beast Bloodline, perhaps not too much, yet sufficient for a transformation.
Squatting for an entire day and night, the Emperor-level Mother Insect continuously consumes Life Origin for deduction, perhaps after the ninth will start the transformation, leaping to become more powerful creatures.
Wang Xuan’s eyes flickered, witnessing the Emperor-level Mother Insect’s continual deductions, the process itself remarkably beneficial, as his primary study is the Path of Creation.
"Each transformation weakens you, after the ninth ends in that quarter hour, you are the weakest, surpass that period, you will rapidly return to peak state, initiating the ultimate transformation.
Perhaps you presume within the nest, surrounded by thousands of Insect Mothers and Kings, no enemy presence found in the vast Star Sea, won’t coincidentally encounter problems at your weakest moment.
Unfortunately, your luck is just too poor!"
Wang Xuan stared intently at the white cocoon shrouded in silk, the change in aura within the cocoon clearly sensed by him.
With a thought, the Mind Projection hidden deep in the Flying Mantis Ant’s Sea of Consciousness began summoning the true form.
Inside the insect nest was quiet, numerous Insect Mothers and Kings focused on the Mother Insect, all waiting for the Emperor’s final transformation, provided no accident occurs, the ninth transformation’s Insect Emperor may commence its transformation, becoming a creature with a more powerful essence.
Snap! Snap!
The sound of the cocoon breaking rang out, resembling eggshells peeling off, Wang Xuan blinked and instantly raised his brows.
Because that Emperor-level Mother Insect transformed into a dozens of meters long silkworm baby, wriggling on the ground, it looked somewhat cute and harmless.
Numerous insect queens and kings seeing the Insect Emperor emerging smoothly, joy began to spread, as soon as the Insect Emperor spoke, they would start to dance and celebrate.
"Hahahaha, had assumed there’d be a fierce battle, unexpectedly come by it effortlessly!"
A loud laugh emitted in the nest, but not from the Insect Emperor, rather from above the Insect Emperor, where a spatial rift appeared, and a Void Python carried Wang Xuan silently infiltrating in.
The ninth transformation’s Insect Emperor, its power had plummeted to rock bottom, likely possessing less than thirty percent of peak form, the optimal timing to attack!
With simultaneous laughter, Wang Xuan swung the black Long Sword in his hand, the sword embryo of Half-Step Immortal Weapon hard and sharp, empowered with his Spirit and Primordial Spirit energies.
The sword light glittered as Wang Xuan’s sword slashed down, directly targeting the Emperor-level Mother Insect’s Spiritual Will, leaving essentially no room for mercy.
