Light Spring Murmur
Chapter 671: Slaying a Cosmic Level with a Sword
She had no hope of passing the Queen's Trial anyway, and was destined to be treated as a failed product. Rather than waiting for death, she decided to gamble one more time.
"How do you plan to make me stronger?"
"After coming to the Ruins of the Insect King, I tried various methods, whether it was cultivation resources, experience inheritance, or evolution secret realms, but the cultivation speed was extremely slow."
"It just shows the resources you accessed weren't good. Let me try." Shi Yu said, and then he took out a Legacy Crystal, a Cultivation Fruit, and a World Tree Fruit, saying, "First use this crystal, if that doesn't work, then use the green fruit, and finally, use this ordinary-looking fruit." "Transcendent resources?" Seeing Shi Yu take out three transcendent resources as soon as he reached out, Judith Linte gradually believed in Shi Yu's strength. She took the Legacy Crystal according to Shi Yu's instructions. This Legacy Crystal contained the combined cultivation experience of Chong Chong specifically for insect silk and space control, which could allow the user to cultivate the Space Insect Silk Divine Skill - Boundary Severing Thread (Perfect +47) depending on talent and potential. It could be said that with this resource made together by Chong Chong and Su Su, even a pig could take off, let alone a Spider Princess with the identities of Daughter of the Universe and Transmigrator. However, Shi Yu still underestimated the other party. After this Spider Princess used such top-quality resources, Shi Yu could clearly feel that the absorption and utilization rate of this transcendent resource was indeed not as good as that of a pig. "Are you a spider or a pig?" After half an hour, the other party hadn't even absorbed one-billionth of the experience, Shi Yu couldn't help but speak. Princess Judith Linte suddenly opened her purple eyes and said, "I am an Alien Insect. I told you, my physique is special. Eat the fruit." Shi Yu had her eat the World Tree Fruit that increased learning ability. Because it was a transcendent resource, the other party obediently listened to Shi Yu's request, but the frustrating thing was that even after eating the World Tree Fruit carefully made by Baby Ginseng, this guy's cultivation speed was still incredibly slow. This made Baby Ginseng in Shi Yu's Beast Taming Space sink into contemplation. Good heavens, its fruit as the Ginseng Heavenly Emperor couldn't even cultivate a god-level? In the end, Judith Linte had to eat the Cultivation Fruit as well… Then, she realized why Shi Yu had let her eat this last. After eating the Cultivation Fruit, this guy with a white human upper body and a black spider lower body had a complexion that was white with a hint of red, red with a hint of black, then green, then blue, and then purple, her complexion changing drastically in an instant. "Ugh—" She vomited violently, wanting to ask Shi Yu what he had given her. She should know that she possessed the four major systems of Time, Space, Insect, and Poison, and had a physique immune to billions of poisons, but this thing almost sent her away as soon as it entered her mouth.
"Bang!"
The other party fainted to the ground, smelling terrible.
"Acceptable." Shi Yu watched the fainted Spider Princess next to him and said, "This time the speed has increased a little, but it's still not enough. Use the Samsara Fruit."
Baby Ginseng, Yi Yi, suggested, "If her previous life was very strong, using the Samsara Fruit would definitely be the fastest way to awaken her power and memories."
Shi Yu said, "I think so too, but I have a little worry."
Rin said, "Yes, this guy's previous life was probably the Alien Insect Queen's 'enemy', but because the identity of the transmigrator is too special, it left traces of the transmigrator. If we awaken the power of those traces, there is a certain probability that it will attract the Queen's attention. If we don't use the Samsara Fruit, we can only use this trick."
Shi Yu stretched out his hand and looked at the unconscious Spider Princess, "Anyway, she's unconscious now, and doesn't know anything. Skill Index, Skill Point Addition!"
Recently, Shi Yu had also figured it out. There was no need to hide things like the Skill Index anymore, because the Skill Index was not an invaluable treasure for the cosmic level. It was created by a group of people through a cosmic treasure. Moreover, its upper limit for improvement was only transcendent level, and it could not create cosmic level at all. Naturally, it was not attractive to the cosmic level.
Cosmic levels could easily cultivate or destroy a transcendent peak, even faster than the Skill Index. You could refer to the Superpower Empress and the Gem Cat. For non-cosmic levels, even if they coveted the secret of the Skill Index, they couldn't beat Shi Yu now. Now, the Skill Index might not even be as rare as a detachment origin.
So, if he had time, Shi Yu could use this thing to help his acquaintances like Cat Cat, Senior Lu, and Senior Panda to improve their strength. Even if his talent was known to everyone, with the Empress covering him, no one could do anything to him. Now he, as the future Seventh Cosmic Throne, was no longer a newcomer who needed to be cautious in everything he did. The Skill Index… was just one of his many abilities. When appropriate, he could use it casually.
Soon, Princess Judith Linte woke up. After waking up, she only felt that her whole body was in excruciating pain, as if it was cracking. She clutched her exploding brain, and then said in disbelief, "My level…"
Waking up, Princess Judith Linte quickly discovered that her level had actually reached the perfect god level, and she was only one step away from the epoch god. She vaguely remembered that she seemed to be cultivating automatically in her sleep, but the effect of this automatic cultivation was too terrifying.
"How long have I slept? No, what did you do to me?" She looked at Shi Yu, who was still nearby, eating supplements and looking a little weak.
"What could I possibly do to a bald spider? How is it, the taste of the Cultivation Fruit is not bad, right?" Shi Yu's kidneys hurt. The other party's strength improvement was not entirely due to the Cultivation Fruit, but also due to his secret skill point addition, but the other party was asleep and didn't know anything.
Honestly speaking, it wasn't anything for Shi Yu's current level, but he was still nurturing the "Cosmic Tree Seed", so it caused a little too much consumption, and he was a little weak again.
"It stinks." The Spider Princess's face was still green. She pinched her neck and still wanted to vomit.
"Good medicine tastes bitter." Shi Yu said, "Anyway, with your current strength, passing the tenth level is no problem. For the 11th level, it depends on your own determination. Whether you can break through to the Epoch God when facing the transcendent phantom, I can't help you with that. You can go try it."
After Shi Yu finished speaking, there was obvious excitement in the Spider Princess's eyes. She also felt her current strength. She felt it was incredible. Even the transcendent experts of the Crimson Ant clan were helpless with her situation.
"If I can pass the 11th level, I will fulfill the agreement and go with you." The Spider Princess's eyes on Shi Yu became a little gentler, because Shi Yu had given her another life.
After she finished speaking, she couldn't wait to challenge the Insect King Tower. In the thirteen major areas of the Insect King Ruins, each area had an Insect King Tower. Like the Glory Challenge of the Cosmic Overlord Legion, it was a symbol of the Insect Clan's glory. The monster projections on each level were all races that had been conquered by the Alien Insect Clan.
Rumor had it that in the higher levels, there would even be projections of extinct creatures like "Cosmic Overlords" who were born with "Cosmic-level races". Whether they could be defeated also symbolized whether they could have the qualifications of a noble. It could be said that every time there was a new noble, a new expert, or an old noble hoped to use the Insect King Tower to improve their bloodline level within the Alien Insect Clan, it would attract a large number of busybodies.
Of course, ordinary nobles would challenge the Insect King Tower in such a way, let alone a royal like Princess Judith Linte. As a royal, although only the Queen's youngest daughter, Princess Judith Linte was already a little famous in the Insect King Ruins under the jurisdiction of the Crimson Ant clan. One was because of her noble status, and the other was because she was born noble, but her strength was not as good as that of ordinary noble descendants. Therefore, in the eyes of most nobles, she was destined to be a failed product abandoned by the Queen.
For the Queen's preferences, over so many years, some Alien Insect nobles had become accustomed to it. The Queen liked to combine various strange racial characteristics to see if she could create a miracle of life and create powerful descendants. Even if the Alien Insect Queen was at the cosmic level, she might not be 100% successful in doing so. Sometimes, there would be many flawed descendants.
The Spider Princess was one of them. The Alien Insect nobles active in the Insect King Ruins did not know which races' bloodlines she had, but her growth trajectory was undoubtedly too mediocre.
"Has Princess Judith Linte entered the Insect King Tower?" Not long after the Spider Princess entered the Insect King Tower, a transcendent life of the Crimson Ant clan, Bai, came here. She frowned, seemingly very dissatisfied with Princess Judith Linte's behavior of not discussing with them before challenging the Insect King Tower.
Judith Linte was thrown here to train. One of the Queen's intentions was to let the Crimson Ant clan assist her growth. Judith Linte's every performance was closely related to the Crimson Ant clan. With such a princess, the Crimson Ant clan only felt that their clan was extremely unlucky.
"Yes, but this time, Princess Judith Linte's aura seems to be very different. She should have broken through to the god level."
"She's at the god level?" Facing the report of the Insect King Tower guards, this female Crimson Ant with an explosive figure showed a strange expression.
Soon, the news that Princess Judith Linte had broken through to the god level spread everywhere. Many experts and geniuses from the Crimson Ant clan gathered at the scene, as well as many other Alien Insect races and ordinary insect-type nobles from various star domains, to see the princess's performance.
"Oh, Brother Lu Bai, I finally found you." Shi Yu was also in front of a stall, leisurely drinking honey tea. This was the honey tea freshly squeezed from bee-type insects in this honey tea shop. It was fresh and delicious. Shi Yu and the Imaginary Butterfly, Chong Chong, falling on his hand, were experiencing the local customs and conditions of the Alien Insect Mother Nest while waiting for the Spider Princess to unlock her bloodline restrictions.
Just then, a familiar voice came. When Shi Yu looked, it was the old man guarding the entrance of a small world.
"Why are you here?" Shi Yu asked in surprise.
"It's nothing. I'm here to tell you good news. The world you came from has been unsealed. As long as you don't fall, you shouldn't have to offer human food upwards in the future." The gatekeeper old man said with a smile.
"That's quite efficient." Shi Yu said, "But you're looking for me, it should be more than just this, right?"
"Yes." The gatekeeper old man said, "Generally speaking, we god-level experts born in these small worlds, even if we become second-class nobles, we usually have to rely on a top noble, so that we can get along better in this starry sky. After hearing your information, the heir of a Crimson Ant branch that I serve wants to meet you. I don't know what Brother Lu Bai thinks."
"I probably can't refuse, right?" Shi Yu said, "It seems like the person is already here."
As Shi Yu spoke, the surrounding space was torn open, and a Crimson Ant person with two mantis Alien Insect guards walked out of the void and looked at the gatekeeper old man and Shi Yu, who was sitting and drinking tea.
"Gray Old Man, is this the Lu Bai you mentioned? God-level peak, has a perfect god-level butterfly beast contracted." This Crimson Ant person, whose face was angular and even a little handsome from a human aesthetic perspective, looked at the gatekeeper old man and Shi Yu sitting opposite him with a smile after appearing.
"Young master, this is the expert who came out of that small world, Lu Bai." Shi Yu also looked at this genius of the Crimson Ant clan. Honestly speaking, Shi Yu had destroyed at least 10 bags of Alien Insect geniuses stronger than him in the transcendent divine realm… Did this guy want to recruit him?
"Ugh, that's troublesome."
"How about working for me? After I become the head of the family, I can make you a first-class noble." This Crimson Ant noble young master was very direct.
Shi Yu said, "Definitely next time."
"Hmm??" The Crimson Ant noble was confused.
"Well, after I came here, I happened to meet Princess Judith Linte. She seems to have taken a fancy to me, so I probably can't work for you, young master." Shi Yu said with a smile.
"Ah, this…" This Crimson Ant noble young master said, "What's the situation? You just came to the Insect King Ruins and got involved with Princess Judith Linte?"
"How is that possible." The gatekeeper old man next to him also looked incredible and said, "Is that Princess Judith Linte?"
Shi Yu shrugged and said, "Yes, maybe she thinks I'm more handsome."
"Are you lying?" The Crimson Ant noble young master frowned. He was also a little famous in the Crimson Ant clan, but that princess didn't even look at him properly. What virtue or ability did this kid, Shi Yu, have? Although the princess seemed like a failed product, she was still the Queen's daughter, with an extremely noble status.
"Brother Lu Bai, you can't say such things randomly." The gatekeeper old man also touched his wrinkled face, thinking, could it be that the princess really liked Shi Yu, this pretty boy?
"Ugh…" Next to him, Chong Chong was already used to his Beast Tamer's shamelessness. It was clearly us who were going to kidnap her, but he could say that she had taken a fancy to us.
"Passed? He actually passed?" At this time, cheers suddenly came from all over the place. On the Insect King Tower, the information on Princess Judith Linte's tower challenge was updated, and it was updated to four levels in one breath.
It represented that the Spider Princess had already reached the fifth floor. Although this record was nothing, it was the first time in history for Judith Linte. Seeing the Spider Princess break through to the god level and be so fierce, achieving a result comparable to a middle-level god, the watching insects were all surprised.
"Fourth floor? Could it be that Princess Judith Linte has finally activated her bloodline power?" Over here, the Crimson Ant young master was also attracted by the situation in the Insect King Tower and showed a surprised look.
"As expected of the offspring of that great being, even if she was silent at the beginning, she still has a chance to soar into the sky. As long as she can grow to have transcendent combat power within a hundred years, she will not be abandoned by the Queen." The gatekeeper old man said.
After that, the situation in the Insect King Tower was like being injected with chicken blood. Before people could react, it was quickly updated to the tenth level, causing people to pop out their eyeballs.
"What a joke, I remember seeing the princess at the banquet last year, she was still just a quasi-god."
"How did she have perfect god-level combat power in such a short time? No, ordinary perfect gods can't pass so quickly." The Crimson Ant young master asked in confusion.
"Brother Lu Bai, haven't you been in contact with Princess, what's the situation?" The gatekeeper old man was also stunned.
"Who knows." Shi Yu's expression became serious. He didn't know if the other party could pass the 11th level. This was the key. He hoped that nothing would go wrong.
To abduct this guy, in the end, there was still some risk. Even if he didn't eat the Samsara Fruit, whether unsealing the bloodline restriction would attract the attention of the Alien Insect Queen was still unknown.
At the same time.
After receiving Shi Yu's help, the Spider Princess quickly arrived at the 11th level. Killing the phantoms on the first 10 floors was as simple as drinking water, without any pressure. After all, her "Boundary Severing Thread" skill, which was the combination skill of "Space Control + Insect Silk" taught to her by Chong Chong, had been raised to (Perfect +47).
But unfortunately, it seemed that reaching this level with only this temporary improvement was already the limit. In the 11th level, the Spider Princess was defeated repeatedly in the face of the transcendent giant tortoise with a continent on its back.
She, who had not yet reached the level of the Epoch God, could not be a match.
"I really can't beat this giant tortoise after confirming it." The Spider Princess showed a reluctant expression.
She didn't expect that even after receiving such a great opportunity, she would still be so unbearable and unable to do anything well. She wanted to break through on the spot, but she still couldn't find the opportunity.
Transcendent will was not so easy to give birth to.
Just when the Spider Princess was already bleeding and still unable to break through the giant tortoise's defense, a lofty voice suddenly echoed in the Spider Princess's heart, causing her expression to change and her face to turn pale.
At that moment, the Spider Princess's surroundings seemed to darken, and in the endless darkness, the Spider Princess floated in mid-air. The light on the opposite side outlined a terrifying figure, causing her bloodline to move infinitely.
Judith Linte quickly judged that this consciousness came from her bloodline. It came from the restrictions of the bloodline contract.
"Mother…" She said with a pale face.
Looking at the Spider Princess in front of her, the Alien Insect Queen's phantom seemed to have crossed time and space and seen the meeting between the Spider Princess and Shi Yu.
The Spider Princess instantly understood who the Alien Insect Queen was talking about.
It was the young man who helped her improve her strength.
The Queen knew the other party! Moreover, she knew everything after they met very easily.
Judith Linte was extremely nervous. She knew that her little trick with Shi Yu could not be hidden from the supreme Mother Emperor no matter what.
It was over… Only this thought was left in her heart. She understood that she would definitely be executed directly.
"Princess Judith Linte is out!" Outside, as Judith Linte appeared, there was a roar all around. Although Judith Linte failed to break through the 11th level, it was still a very remarkable record to break through 10 levels in one breath.
This made people understand that the fate of this princess might be rewritten. She might be able to become a true princess recognized by the Queen.
In the sky, the transcendent of the Crimson Ant clan also had a look of joy on her face. She didn't expect Princess Judith Linte to give them such a big surprise this time.
However, as Judith Linte appeared in the sky, all the Alien Insects' expressions changed.
The endless fear and tremor in the depths of their bloodlines made them look at the faceless Princess Judith Linte in the sky with some shock.
At this time, Princess Judith Linte's expression was pale, her pupils were dull, and she exuded a purple mist.
"This, this is…" Over at Shi Yu's stall, the Crimson Ant young master and the gatekeeper old man's bloodlines trembled infinitely, their faces were terrified, as if they felt a terrifying existence that was even more frightening than seeing a transcendent in the clan.
"Ugh!" Chong Chong's bloodline also trembled instantly. Even with Chong Chong's noble bloodline, it felt immense pressure. Even if there was the power of the Four Holy Beasts Azure Dragon in its source of power, it could not stop this bloodline suppression.
Shi Yu's face changed drastically, and he was extremely helpless in his heart. Why couldn't he complete the mission smoothly every time he carried it out?
Damn, the third transmigrator, it would have been great if he was an ordinary human, he would have taken him away directly. Why did he have to be the Queen's daughter? It was simply troublesome. This time, he was already extremely careful. The Superpower Empress couldn't blame him for causing trouble. The identity of the third transmigrator was already hell-level difficulty at the start. As expected, it was too difficult to hide it from the Alien Insect Queen and the cosmic level. If he knew that there would be a car crash sooner or later, he might as well have visited directly and negotiated.
"Boom!"
At this time, a huge shadow of bloodline outside the Insect King Tower bloomed from the Spider Princess's body. Above her, a new phantom formed. This phantom was extremely strange in shape, composed of deep purple material similar to an exoskeleton or armor. It looked like an insect bone, with the characteristics of ants, dragonflies, locusts, and other insects. The faint light formed the skin, and there was no trace of human form, as if it was an insect god who had awakened from ancient times.
"Lord Queen…" Seeing this phantom, countless nobles were shocked and trembled infinitely. They didn't understand why such a noble existence as the Alien Insect Queen would appear here. At this time, even the transcendent Alien Insects in the other 12 major areas were shocked and looked over here.
One should know that even the leaders of the thirteen Alien Insect nobles found it as difficult as ascending to the sky to see the Queen.
"Is it because of Princess Judith Linte?"
However, what made people even more unbelievable next was that as soon as the Queen's phantom appeared, she raised the Queen's claws high in full view of the public, seemingly wanting to pierce through the Spider Princess's body.
This move made the hearts of everyone present explode, especially the Crimson Ant clan, who had just been surprised by the princess's performance. At this time, they trembled beyond compare and didn't understand what the Queen meant.
The princess showed good talent and potential, so why did she want to execute her?
At this moment, no one dared to breathe, and their bodies were stiff on the spot. Shi Yu's eyes shrank sharply, and he understood the Alien Insect Queen's intention. Did this guy want to force himself to show himself?
Did she want to see how much he needed her offspring?
"Chong Chong."
"Bang."
When no one else moved, Shi Yu couldn't help but crush the teacup. Under the shocked expressions of the gatekeeper old man, the Crimson Ant young master, and the sexy bee woman who came to fill the tea, the blue butterfly that landed on Shi Yu's shoulder turned into a blue beam of light that pierced through time and space!
Terrifying spatial power and mental power wrapped around Chong Chong, wrapping it into a ball of light. This blue ball of light suddenly flashed across the Insect King Ruins like lightning, and the shock resounded throughout the thirteen major areas of the Insect King Ruins!
"Boom!"
When people reacted, they saw a blue butterfly wrapped in a telekinetic ball colliding directly with the Queen's claws. The two sides' powers were deadlocked, and both the telekinetic ball and the Queen's claws were shaking crazily.
"Who is it?" This scene was even more shocking than the Queen's appearance and wanting to execute the Spider Princess.
"There's no need to use your offspring as bait, right." A voice like a bolt from the blue resounded. Following the blue butterfly just now, a red sword light, as if dawning from the darkness, cut off the Queen's claws in an instant. Light spots scattered all over the sky. At that moment, the Queen's phantom also seemed to have suffered a huge blow, losing control of the Spider Princess.
The red-haired boy holding the sword grabbed the blue butterfly flying beside the Spider Princess. Looking at the Queen with the severed arm, he said, "Alright, as you wish, I'm out. This guy really can't let you kill her like this."
