Chapter 795: Chapter 397: I... Grant You Power...

The first kind is the world collapsing, the entire world turning into some remnants in the Star Sea.

The other is devolving into a magic-less world, eventually having all its souls extracted by the Ancient Gods, turning into a Netherworld.

But the Insect Race is different.

The Insect Race is a calamity-level race that devours entire worlds.

Rules, stones, world barriers.

They start from within the world, gradually devouring the entire world without leaving a trace, using it to propagate their race.

Once they have completely consumed that world, they can continue to survive in the Star Sea, wandering aimlessly until they find the next world and repeat the above steps.

Only the Gods can eliminate top-tier Insect Races.

And Baiyi’s idea was to combine the Abyss and the Insect Race, retaining the rapid propagation and absolute obedience of the Insect Race, along with the high combat power and corrosiveness of the Abyss.

It discarded the chaos of the Abyss and the survival, lifespan, and other less important traits of the Insect Race, forming a kind of war weapon.

The current characteristic of this weapon is only in spawning, while Baiyi is still researching other aspects, but it requires some preparation since what he aims to create must be an extreme disposable item that seeks nothing but destructive power.

After all, Baiyi’s purpose is clear: to kill two Gods and Pu Sheng at any cost, destroy the potential contingencies of the Earth Mother, and dismantle her rules to condense the Origin Stone, while saving Sabo in the process.

These objectives require a temporarily rule-transcending existence to appear.

And this undertaking could be costly, but based on current knowledge simulations, this transformation is not without the possibility of success.

"Your Majesty, they rejected my invitation but accepted the Insect Hive and your gifts."

In two days, Flame Demon Barro had become very respectful towards Baiyi, as this Godslayer was quite different from the legends.

The brief interaction gave Barro a deeper understanding of Baiyi’s strength, which wasn’t merely physical power, but also knowledge.

Of course, the biggest credit goes to some substances he consumed; among the good things Baiyi occasionally provided, Barro’s body became filled with over 7,000 types of highly poisonous substances.

They were distributed throughout Barro’s body, including his brain and soul. These poisons kept each other in check, giving him a heartfelt sense of submission to Baiyi.

Disobeying this feeling would subtly cause unease, while following it brought comfort.

With the assistance of some consciousness-altering poisons, Baiyi had acquired a compliant tool.

"It’s alright, what can be anticipated is that with the Insect Hive, they shouldn’t fail so quickly now."

Baiyi said gently, with a hint of praise in his tone: "However, your actions are swift, don’t worry, as long as my objectives are achieved, this world will belong to you, and the contract will be a cooperative one. We shall advance together and become the new generation of Supreme beings."

Barro was stunned, a strange sense of joy arose in his heart, and some discord and unease quickly dissipated.

Yes, with the contract in place, what was there to be uneasy about?

Wasn’t the contract already written clearly?

It was, after all, a just contract from the Abyss, and as long as His Majesty achieves his goals, he himself could also become a being as powerful as His Majesty.

But... what exactly was the content of the contract?

Barro’s eyes quickly flickered with different emotions.

Baiyi didn’t give him much time to ponder, softly interrupting: "Currently, fifty Insect Hives should be sufficient; next, my future friend, are you ready to become the Abyssal Insect Emperor? It will be a Forbidden Power, making you an entity no weaker than a God."

Barro was momentarily stunned, exclaiming in surprise: "Insect Emperor? Me?"

"Yes, you."

Baiyi first confirmed that he hadn’t heard wrong, then softly explained: "You might not be well-acquainted with the Insect Race, but I have some clips here, you can take a look first, this decision is yours. If after watching you still pursue your own flame, then I can also let someone else become the sole Insect Emperor."

As Baiyi spoke, a light screen appeared before him, initially displaying darkness, then a myriad of starlights filled the screen.

Before Barro could even argue, he was subconsciously drawn to the images.

"Is this... the Star Sea?"

Baiyi didn’t respond, making a slight motion with his finger, and an extinguished star was swiftly magnified.

As the distance was reduced to an extreme, countless insects came into view.

A truly astonishing scene appeared among the insects.

It was actually a scene of a world being gnawed away, soil, rules, sun, everything turning into void amidst these countless swarming shelled insects.

The entire world didn’t mount any resistance, not even capable of self-destruction.

These insects nonchalantly devoured the world entirely.

Their numbers grew even more immense.

At the center of this insect swarm was a gigantic construct with a diameter of over ten thousand meters, resembling a flesh ball or a uniquely styled structure.

The camera slightly shifted to reveal a golden insect.

Although it wasn’t humanoid, even through the Human Race’s aesthetic sense, an intense sense of oppression and nobility could be felt.

Its antennae slightly trembled, and half of the swarm spread across the Star Sea quickly formed into squads, shooting outwards in all directions like meteors.
