Orderly tyrant

"Enough."

Lin Qing nodded and glanced sideways at the laboratory behind him, which was now filled with corpses. "Killing over fifty people was enough to drive evolution."

The duty of the Godhood of the Commander of Soldiers is to temper divine weapons through slaughter and to seize the purest life essence of the enemy with these weapons.

When enough life essence is obtained, it can drive life evolution, using external life essence to experience a transformation that is best suited to oneself.

Each Godhood has various ways of evolving, as long as it can fulfill the function of the Godhood.

"If experiencing it once isn't enough, come find me again."

Chu Hongjun said calmly, "However, with your comprehension and talent, once should be enough. After all, this is just transforming into a sixth-level life form, which is almost the easiest transformation."

Lin Qing asked in confusion, "The easiest?"

Life evolution mainly depends on talent and comprehension.

Comprehension goes without saying.

Talent, which is the sensitivity to high-level energy, almost represents the upper limit.

If you have enough talent and a Godhood to help drive evolution, experiencing life transformation in advance should allow someone with high comprehension to learn it after experiencing it once or twice, right?

"Because seventh-level energy starts to involve the origin of stars."

Chu Hongjun said calmly, "Not only is the energy nature extremely complex, but it also involves the level of consciousness. Without reaching the life level of self-transformation into a star, there is no hope of mastering the power of the seventh level, and it is impossible to recognize its essence due to interference from consciousness."

Lin Qing felt a little baffled: "You can't master the power of the seventh level unless you're a star being? Then how do you transform into a star being?"

This is like the question of which came first, the chicken or the egg.

"Of course, you rely on the Godhood to drive it," Chu Hongjun said, "Just like you are doing now."

"Besides the Godhood, is there no other way?" Lin Qing asked in confusion.

"Of course there is. Can't those natural star beings also transform to the star level?"

Chu Hongjun said, "But any method is to first transform into a star being before mastering the power of the seventh level, including recognizing the essence. You must become a star being to have the possibility of recognizing the essence of seventh-level power."

"What about the Black Flame Race or Zhao Jiayi, who possess seventh-level or higher power in advance?" Lin Qing asked in confusion.

Chu Hongjun said calmly, "They are only displaying a small part of the splendor of high-level power in advance, but the energy intensity is far from reaching the level of involving star consciousness."

Lin Qing suddenly understood.

"In short, you cannot attract seventh-level power like a star until you reach the life level of self-transformation into a star," Chu Hongjun said.

"The levels are becoming more and more strict…" Lin Qing said thoughtfully.

When the energy level is low, it is not difficult to master high-level energy in advance. He had already started using fourth-level energy before gene awakening.

But the power of the sixth level is almost only mastered by higher primitive beings.

As the energy level increases, it seems to become more difficult to surpass.

"No wonder it's called self-transformation into a star…"

Lin Qing understood somewhat, "That's right, even ordinary life planets cannot attract seventh-level energy. How can a life individual master seventh-level energy in advance?"

Before reaching the life level of self-transformation into a star, one is ultimately just a child of the stars, a being nurtured by a life planet.

"However, Elena said that she will be responsible for the slaughter you need to transform into a star with your Godhood."

Chu Hongjun glanced at Lin Qing and said, "So… you only need to consider the primitive-level Godhood trial."

Lin Qing nodded slightly.

It seems that these three are often in contact and discussing things?

"You can leave now."

Chu Hongjun said calmly, "When you can't improve any further, come find me again before the primitive-level Godhood trial. I'll take you to the No. 1 pre-civilization ruins."

The Vacuum Grand Tomb?

Lin Qing immediately nodded and said, "I'll leave the rest to Dean Chu."

However, he still has to go to the No. 3 ruins, 'Stellar Secret Vault,' next January.

He will try to improve his strength as much as possible in these six months.

…

That day, Dawn Group released a public announcement—

Due to a major accident in the laboratory, an energy surge occurred unexpectedly during the eighth-level experiment, resulting in the death of eighty-two innocent people who were visiting the laboratory.

In response, Dawn Group provided high compensation to all parties and demoted and fined the person in charge, Chu Hongjun.

As for the truth of the accident, perhaps some people have guessed it, but no one can do anything without evidence.

Moreover, eighth-level energy did rampage in the laboratory. As for whether it was an accident or man-made, that is up to each individual to decide.

The higher-ups of Zhi Xing Group also held a supreme meeting specifically for this.

"Chu Hongjun really killed them on purpose. It seems… he is really helping that Lin Qing to promote the evolution of the Commander of Soldiers?"

"Eighty-two conventional Godhoods and primitive beings with no potential in exchange for Chu Hongjun's demotion is not bad. It is not only beneficial now, but in the future, when Earth is opened, his say in the Qiyan civilization behind Dawn Group will also be reduced."

"He will eventually become a star-level Godhood holder. Perhaps he already wants to get rid of the Qiyan civilization?"

"However, he seems to value that Lin Qing quite a bit."

"After all, he is the only free genius of Earth civilization. He probably wants Lin Qing to go to the pre-civilization ruins. Without contract restrictions, he doesn't need to share any treasures he obtains."

"Find some space pirates to test him out as soon as possible and solve that Lin Qing, but remember not to leave any traces or involvement."

"Don't worry, I found a space broker. Those space pirates don't know the situation and are only entrusted by a noble of the Dilansi civilization to help find the missing Miss Carol."

"That Carol escaped from the Broken Stele Prison with Uleao and other extraterrestrial prisoners. Her activity area is in Lin'an City, which is the territory where Lin Qing was patrolling. No one would believe that their disappearance has nothing to do with Lin Qing."

"That Lin Qing was obviously hiding his strength when he took office as a rare Godhood holder. It is normal for him to be able to kill Uleao, Carol, and others."

"That group of space pirates is far away. It will take about half a year for them to come from the nearest Z11S560 wormhole."

"That's enough. The next time the Azure Sky Islands open is in a year and a half."

…

…

Patrol Star Council Headquarters.

Inside a private residence, Lin Qing was sitting on the sofa, casually browsing the internal platform of the Patrol Star Council, where there were many messages about the Dawn Group's laboratory accident.

"As expected… it was covered up with a single sentence about an accident…"

Lin Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, "These extraterrestrial civilizations are very afraid of Qi Lingxiao and the other two. Just discovering that they can demote Chu Hongjun, they are willing to let dozens of primitive beings die…"

This is the deterrence brought by strength.

Even a true powerhouse is enough to deter a civilization.

"There is still a year and a half before the next opening of the Azure Sky Islands, and three years before the opening of Earth."

Lin Qing secretly planned in his heart, "I must pass the primitive Godhood trial before the next opening of the Azure Sky Islands and try to transform into a star being before the opening of Earth…"

Although time is tight, he feels that there is hope.

For him, transforming into a higher primitive being is no longer difficult, and he can succeed quickly with the help of the Starry Sky Source Stone.

At that time, after engraving the sixth-level Holy Text, even if he only uses the abilities of the Commander of Soldiers, he can pass the fourth level of the Star Abyss.

"A sixth-level life form, sixth-level Godhood power, and sixth-level Holy Text… these are all natural and will be completed soon."

"After overdrawing, the efficiency of repayment is higher."

"The next focus is still the Revolving Star Divine Skill and… the most important detection secret technique."

Lin Qing also felt a little helpless.

Although the cultivation difficulty of the Revolving Star Divine Skill is high, he is confident that he can successfully cultivate it by relying on the pseudo-Godhead and overdrawing, and repaying the nine types of power essence one by one.

The key is that the Divine Skill of the Walking Below the Gods must be obtained after practicing the detection secret technique, but he has not yet mastered the detection secret technique.

There is no way to do it.

"According to the Sky Island Guardian, this detection secret technique has a spirit, and the higher the number of layers in the Star Abyss trial, the more likely it is to master it…"

He can only comfort himself silently in his heart: "Maybe I'll master it on the fourth level of the Star Abyss?"

…

Time passed day by day.

Apart from cultivation, Lin Qing would occasionally meet Zhao Jiayi in Twilight Paradise, just to relax.

The Patrol Star Council rarely takes action. Generally, they only need to take action when extraterrestrial stowaways with strong strength are involved, and most extraterrestrial stowaways are of average strength. The Patrol Headquarters can solve them.

At least those extraterrestrial stowaways with enough strength to pass the first level of the Star Abyss are worthy of the Patrol Star Council's attention.

But it's just a small trouble. Any quasi-Patrol Star member with decent strength is enough to take action.

Therefore, since entering the Patrol Star Council for so long, Lin Qing has been in a state of cultivation and has hardly participated in any actions.

Fortunately, Speaker Yan paid for him to use or purchase some of the Patrol Star Council's resources. Otherwise, he wouldn't have so many resources on his own, and he wouldn't be able to cultivate so peacefully.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

…

Inside the Star Transmission Tower.

Above the cloud-shrouded mountain peak.

Suddenly, a figure condensed into reality, and it was Lin Qing.

"Dawn Light."

Lin Qing opened his mouth and said, "Register a new Star Abyss account for me."

"Registering a new one again? Okay."

Dawn Light nodded slightly and looked at Lin Qing with some curiosity, "Didn't the master register a new account last time when he was confident of passing the fourth level of the Star Abyss?"

"Last time, I only barely passed the fourth level with the ability of the Commander of Soldiers," Lin Qing shook his head slightly, "This time I have a breakthrough, so I'll try my best."

Dawn Light immediately asked, "What is the name of the master's new account?"

Lin Qing thought for a moment and said, "Let the new account be called 'Dig Out Lei Tong's Third Eye'."

"Lei Tong?"

Dawn Light nodded, "There are not many people who use Qi Lingxiao's style for their names."

Lei Tong, who is ranked tenth on the Star Abyss leaderboard, is the leader of Zhi Xing Group, the ultimate star being, and the strongest person on Earth on the surface.

There are originally few people on Earth who are enemies with him, and naturally even fewer who are strong.

"Just a goal."

Lin Qing said casually and immediately stepped into the dark vortex leading to the Star Abyss.

…

Lin Qing easily passed through the first, second, and third levels of the Star Abyss trial without any hindrance.

He didn't need to use much power. He easily slaughtered the newborn demons on the third level of the Star Abyss just by casually controlling a divine weapon.

Now he is a higher primitive being. Not only has his Godhood ability been upgraded to the sixth level, but he has also re-engraved the Holy Text with his own sixth-level power.

Even if he only uses the ability of the Commander of Soldiers, he can barely pass the fourth level of the Star Abyss with all his strength, let alone the third level.

After the newly registered account passed through the first three levels of the Star Abyss in one breath, Lin Qing directly flew into the dark vortex passage leading to the fourth level of the Star Abyss.

On the fourth level of the Star Abyss, the gravity reaches about a thousand times that of Earth, and there are also various harsh environments such as extreme heat, ice, and storms.

The Star Abyss demons on the fourth level of the Star Abyss are still newborn demons, but these newborn demons are considered to be in a state after growing up a bit, and their strength is extremely amazing.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"

At the same time as entering the fourth level, various demons that can easily reach several times the speed of sound under a thousand times the gravity rushed towards him at the same time, using various methods.

Last time, Lin Qing relied on the sixth-level pseudo-God domain to bind and suppress these Star Abyss demons, and then frantically slaughtered and attacked from a distance with the divine weapon cultivated by the Holy Text Blood Edge to barely pass the fourth level.

It is rare for higher primitive beings to pass the fourth level of the Star Abyss.

"Let's directly use all my strength to pass this fourth level."

Lin Qing's heart moved, and the sixth-level energy in his body surged out and began to condense and compress frantically. In the blink of an eye, it formed a layer of deep light composed purely of energy, which continued to spread along his body, outlining magical contour lines.

In an instant, a pseudo-God body like a semi-transparent sculpture had arrived. The face without facial features was without sorrow or joy, like a god.

At the same time, a hazy light domain spread out, instantly covering everything within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

The speed of the Star Abyss demons that flew over rapidly suddenly decreased greatly.

"Swish swish swish—"

Lin Qing drove the pseudo-God body and casually waved a battle knife several meters long to begin slaughtering these Star Abyss demons.

Even with just the ability of the Commander of Soldiers, he can pass the fourth level. Naturally, it is even easier once he uses the pseudo-God body.

"It's time for the fifth level."

After Lin Qing killed all these newborn demons, he found a dark vortex-like entrance to the Star Abyss passage on the ground.

He glanced at it and immediately flew in.

Actually, this is not the first time trying the fifth level of the Star Abyss.

But last time, even if he maintained the pseudo-God body and used a divine weapon forged with sixth-level power as armor, after encountering the six original blood demons on the fifth level, he only blocked the first attack of one of them, and died on the second attack.

The attack from the original blood demon indeed could not break the armor comparable to sixth-level materials, but he was like a person hidden inside the armor, being hit hard by a large iron ball. The pseudo-God body inside the armor could not withstand it, and only lasted until the second attack before shattering and dissipating.

There was no way, the gap was too big.

The fifth level of the Star Abyss is normally only passable by Primitive Divinities.

"Huff!"

Upon entering the fifth level, before he could properly experience the terrifying gravity of this environment, phantoms with terrifying auras instantly flew towards him at astonishing speeds.

With a sweep of his mental power, Lin Qing discovered the six Primal Blood Demons.

Six major factions, exactly one Primal Blood Demon from each!

He immediately took a deep breath, not hesitating.

"Star Spin!"
