Orderly tyrant

"He's caught another high-level fish. This one is worth three thousand points."

"Unbelievable. If it were a high-dimensional planet, it would be somewhat understandable, but how can a normal planetary civilization have such high attainments in the void?"

"Planetary civilizations can't even touch the spatial rules of the void sea. The legacy of a level three civilization couldn't achieve this, right?"

"He's almost at ten thousand points, isn't he? I wonder how many points he has in the Dark World and the Mirror World."

"His strength is so high, and his void attainments are also so high. His total points must be very high."

"It's really unbelievable... He's clearly from a planetary civilization, but he's almost at the level of a peerless genius from a 2.9-level civilization..."

On the floating islands of the Tianhe World, a group of trial-takers couldn't help but observe Lin Qing, communicating secretly through voice transmission.

Lin Qing, however, leisurely fished, not caring about their comments. He was only a few hundred points away from reaching ten thousand points.

"The void mysteries of this Tianhe are too chaotic and not worth comprehending. It's more suitable for honing and verifying, so it's somewhat useful."

Lin Qing muttered to himself, "But it's far inferior to the Dark World and the Mirror World."

This Tianhe World is just like a normal cosmic spectacle, with very little value in comprehension. He's seen many such cosmic spectacles in the Cosmic Spectacle Museum.

And while the Dark World and the Mirror World are suitable for comprehending void mysteries, the difficulty is too high.

"Found another one!"

With the wave-like void essence perception, Lin Qing could easily observe the movement trajectory and appearance patterns of the fish in the Tianhe.

Although they are called fish, they are special creatures that change with the void.

As he caught this last fish, Lin Qing heard a voice in his mind:

"You have obtained ten thousand points. Given that the trial-taker has obtained thirty thousand points, you may carry away spoils worth ten thousand points and leave the Tianhe World."

"Spoils?"

Lin Qing was slightly stunned, and glanced at the fish that were imprisoned in the wooden bucket next to him, "Are these fish for me to take as spoils?"

He didn't understand what these fish were for, but he could ask that Lord Mirror after he went out.

"Can only take away ten thousand points worth?"

Lin Qing didn't think too much, and directly chose three high-level fish and two mid-level fish worth five hundred points, then left the Tianhe World carrying the fish bucket.

"Why is he carrying a fish bucket as he leaves?"

"I heard that if some God-chosen trials achieve a perfect score, it is possible to obtain extra rewards."

"He caught three high-level fish, so it must be a perfect score."

...

After leaving the Tianhe World, Lin Qing received a voice transmission from that Chaos God Mirror:

"These fish are used to improve the gene index. High-level fish improve the gene index by about 500 times the universal standard, mid-level by 200 times, and low-level by 100 times. You can only eat one of each level. You can eat one now."

Improve the gene index?

Lin Qing immediately thanked him: "Thank you for your guidance, Lord Mirror."

He glanced at the fish in the bucket, immediately grabbed a high-level fish, and before he could think about how to eat it, the mysterious energy in his body, upon contact with the fish, turned the fish into a pure and gentle magical energy, which quickly merged into his body.

At this moment, Lin Qing could clearly sense that his gene index was constantly being optimized and improved.

Although the speed wasn't fast, it was continuous.

"Slowly transform then."

Lin Qing glanced at the remaining fish and immediately put them away with a movement of the vertical eye in the center of his brow.

He would take these two high-level fish and two mid-level fish back to Earth.

Improving the gene index by 500 times is an extremely precious treasure, even for a level two civilization.

The gene index of a peerless genius like Tuls, from a 2.8-level civilization, is only 500 times the universal standard, which is equivalent to the bonus of this fish.

Even for void creatures, the gene index is mostly only a thousand times, and this fish can completely increase the strength of void creatures by nearly 50%.

"It can also increase my strength by 50%."

Lin Qing nodded secretly, "If my strength is 50% higher, maybe I can touch the bottom line of the eleventh level?"

The mysterious energy in each creature, known as the cosmic god bloodline, is not greatly related to the level of life, but is closely related to the gene index.

It seems...

The stronger the gene, the stronger the trace of cosmic god bloodline in the body, resulting in an all-round improvement.

Even for void creatures, the gene index is very important.

And the level of life, that is, life forms of different energy levels, is more about mastering different levels of energy.

"When I become a void creature, unless I create a perfect divine skill like World God, my strength won't improve much..."

Lin Qing thought to himself, "There will only be progress in terms of gene index and controlling the power of the void..."

There's no way, he has reached the limit in the use of eighth-level energy through divine skills, but there is no ninth-level energy in the universe, so he can only create it himself, which is very troublesome.

"I hope my speculation is correct..."

Time passed day by day, and as the strange energy transformed from the fish in Lin Qing's body gradually took effect, his gene index became higher and higher.

Soon, the twenty-four days of the God-chosen stage passed.

Many trial-takers were expelled from the three major worlds and teleported back to the square at the same time.

"It's over? I just needed to catch one more mid-level fish to get ten thousand points!"

"The void essence mysteries of that mirror are so easy to comprehend. Even if they are incomplete, they are rare opportunities. Why is it over?"

"It's over just like that? I knew I should have gone to the Dark World earlier..."

Many trial-takers were helpless and regretful.

Many people didn't expect to become Star Gods, but they hoped to use the treasure lands of these three major worlds to improve their void attainments.

Even if they become void creatures in the future, it will be difficult to find such a treasure land.

"The Star God Trial ends here."

A black-robed, white-haired woman appeared in the square. The supreme pressure originating from the Chaos God spread out, immediately silencing everyone.

She swept her gaze and said indifferently: "As for the trial result, there is no need to start a life-and-death battle. The first place has already obtained thirty thousand points."

"Thirty thousand points? It's actually a perfect score?"

"Someone actually got a perfect score?"

"Even a peerless genius from a 2.9-level civilization might not be able to do it..."

Each and every trial-taker couldn't help but be shocked, and many people subconsciously looked at Lin Qing, who was most likely to be the first.

Of course, some people suspected that there was a hidden peerless genius.

"Boom!"

A beam of heavenly light fell suddenly, accompanied by vast energy and supreme pressure, instantly engulfing Lin Qing.

This scene represented the transformation of a divine position, and also represented the birth of a new Star God.

And this scene also completely confirmed it for many trial-takers.

"It really is him..."

The moods of each and every trial-taker were somewhat complicated.

Almost all of those who could participate in the Star God Trial were top geniuses of level two civilizations, and their arrogance could be imagined.

You must know that in the real universe, even those relatively powerful level 1 civilizations rarely produce someone who has mastered a divine skill, once every hundred thousand or million years, who can be called a peerless genius among peerless geniuses.

And in level two civilizations, even if you master a divine skill, you are simply praised as a genius.

For a level one civilization, geniuses like them are almost monstrous beings that defy common sense, so they naturally look down on a mere planetary civilization.

Even if it is a planetary civilization that is fortunate enough to obtain the legacy of a level three civilization, it is still just a planetary civilization.

Giving nuclear weapon manufacturing technology to barbarians will not allow them to produce nuclear weapons.

Therefore, when they discovered that Lin Qing, this barbarian from a planetary civilization, had actually created a nuclear weapon, the disbelief and shock in their hearts can be imagined.

"The Star God Trial ends here."

The black-robed, white-haired woman waved her sleeve, "You may now go and participate in the Star-level trial of another divine position."

As soon as the voice fell, many trial-takers disappeared without a trace.

Immediately afterwards, the black-robed, white-haired woman looked at Lin Qing, who was receiving the Star God inheritance in the pillar of light, and waited quietly.

I don't know how long it took before the heavenly light dissipated and Lin Qing slowly opened his eyes.

"This is... a Star God?" Lin Qing murmured.

At this moment, he had already felt the power and terror of the Star God, and also understood the importance of the Star God, which was not just combat power.

"Lin Qing."

The black-robed, white-haired woman floated over and smiled: "From now on, you are one of the Star Gods under my command in this void sea."

"Under your command, my lord?" Lin Qing looked at her and asked doubtfully: "Is it because Lord Mirror presided over the Star God Trial for me?"

He had long heard that above the Star God was the Chaos God, who was also the main god of a faction. He didn't expect that he would directly belong to this Lord Mirror's command.

"No, of course not for this reason."

The black-robed, white-haired woman smiled, "If you weren't a life-type Star God, would you be counted under my command?"

She immediately explained: "It's just because I am the main god of the life faction in this void sea, so you are under my command. If you are of another faction, then you would be under the command of the main god of another faction."

"I see..." Lin Qing suddenly understood, then suddenly reacted: "Are you saying that... in this void sea, you are the only main god of the life faction?"

"That's right."

The black-robed, white-haired woman nodded slightly, "This is also the rule of the universe. Each void sea can only have six main gods, one for each faction."

Lin Qing murmured: "Several tens of thousands of Star Gods, only six main gods are produced?"

"It's more than just several tens of thousands of Star Gods." The black-robed, white-haired woman shook her head and said: "On average, one Star God falls every few thousand years. In a short period of less than a hundred million years, and at most hundreds of millions of years, this batch of Star Gods will all fall, but in all likelihood, not even one Chaos God will be produced."

She looked at Lin Qing and said: "Actually, I don't want to sit in the position of the main god of the life faction. This position has no meaning for me anymore, but... it's been too long, and no one has taken over."

"You don't want to sit in this position?" Lin Qing asked doubtfully: "Can the position of Chaos God be changed?"

"Not Chaos God, but Main God."

The black-robed, white-haired woman sighed and said: "Another name for Chaos God is Main God, which is also a job, a responsibility. Before the second Chaos God appears in this void sea, I cannot get rid of the position of Main God."

She was somewhat emotional, "It's not just me, the other five factions now only have one Chaos God. The Destruction Main God is a newly appointed Chaos God, so it's okay, but the five of us have been in the position of Main God for too long, too long. The Order Main God has been waiting for countless years."

Lin Qing understood what she meant.

Isn't this the situation of the Nine-Star Civilization?

The void creatures who are Emperors have endless lives, but are bound by the responsibilities of their home civilization and cannot leave the position of Emperor.

For Chaos Gods, the position of Main God is equivalent to the position of Emperor?

"Most Star Gods are good, perhaps no less than you, but they are not worth me saying more."

The black-robed, white-haired woman said gently: "But you are different. You have the inheritance of the Beginning Realm, and you also have peerless talent. Perhaps you really have hope of becoming a Chaos God in the future. You must work hard."

"Yes." Lin Qing nodded.

"Unfortunately..."

The black-robed, white-haired woman sighed, "As the Main God, I am also watched most closely by the Star Abyss Demon Clan. I don't dare to take you as a disciple, and I don't dare to have too many ties with you, otherwise you may be cleared by the Star Abyss Demon Clan following the connection."

"Star Abyss Demon Clan?" Lin Qing asked in surprise.

The black-robed, white-haired woman sighed: "As the scourge of the universe, if most of the Star Abyss Demon Clan's power were not fighting against the Void God Clan, we would have been unable to stop them..."

She shook her head slightly and said: "Your hometown has the protection of the Beginning Realm, but you must also be careful of the Star Abyss Demon Clan."

Lin Qing asked somewhat doubtfully: "Lord Mirror, I heard that the longer you live, the more likely you are to be targeted by the Star Abyss Demon Clan? Why is that?"

This was information he obtained from the Blood Cauldron King's memory.

However, the Blood Cauldron King didn't know the reason either.

"The reason is very simple."

The black-robed, white-haired woman said: "The Star Abyss Demon Clan, which deals with void creatures, is all Void Demons, and the evolution of Void Demons feeds on time. The longer a creature lives, the more intense and clear the traces of time or the aura of years become, naturally attracting the attention of Void Demons."

Lin Qing suddenly understood.

So that's the reason?

Although they have infinite lifespan, they will also be targeted by the Star Abyss Demon Clan?

"The Void Demon, as the transformation period of the Star Abyss Demon Clan, has a very long range of strength evolution."

The black-robed, white-haired woman said: "Unless your strength can reach my level, making even the most terrifying Void Demons helpless, you will never be truly eternal, and moreover..."

Speaking of this, she paused, then shook her head slightly again, and didn't say any more.

"Lord Mirror."

Lin Qing pondered for a moment and said: "I heard that after the Star level, there are no more divine position trials. How do Star Gods become Chaos Gods?"

"It cannot be said, but when your strength is enough, you will naturally understand." The black-robed, white-haired woman said: "But I can tell you that in order to become a Chaos God, in addition to strength, there are three basic requirements."

Lin Qing listened attentively.

"First, as a life-type Star God, you must personally leave your soul imprint on the life-type Supreme Star, three hundred and eighty main stars, and ten thousand void stars in the void starry sea."

The black-robed, white-haired woman said, "Actually, this is a basic requirement for other Void-level deities. Leaving a soul imprint each time also has its benefits. If you can leave a soul imprint, that's your skill."

"Supreme Star, Main Star, Void Star?" Lin Qing silently memorized them.

"Second, you are now a Star God, possessing true divinity and a true divine spark."

The black-robed, white-haired woman said, "But your divine spark should only have one color, right?"

Lin Qing nodded.

"The reason it's called Chaos God is because it was born from the six major factions."

The black-robed, white-haired woman said, "Star Gods from different factions are actually in competition. You need to make the Star Gods of the other five factions voluntarily hand over their divine sparks, so that your divine spark can be transformed time and time again. When your divine spark level transforms from single-colored to seven-colored, or even chaos-colored, then the requirement is met. The higher the level of divine spark you absorb, the greater the benefit to your own divine spark."

She paused and said, "For example... when refining artifacts, whatever level your divine spark is, that's the level of the artifact you can refine."

Lin Qing seemed thoughtful.

No wonder the competition rules for Star Gods are so cruel, this is probably where it comes from.

"As for the third basic requirement..."

The black-robed, white-haired woman said, "That is to receive the blessing of the Void God Clan. When your strength reaches a certain level, you will naturally understand what to do."

Lin Qing nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Lord Jing."

"It's nothing."

The black-robed, white-haired woman shook her head indifferently and added, "You don't have to join any of the secondary civilizations in the Void Sea, but I advise you to join the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance. Only the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance has the best chance of contacting the Void God Clan. With your current strength, joining the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance is easy."

"Okay, I understand," Lin Qing nodded.

"That's all I have to say, go." The black-robed, white-haired woman waved her sleeve.

Lin Qing immediately felt the space-time in front of him change, already enveloped by a vast and boundless power, disappearing without a trace.
