Wu Sheng: I can adapt to evolution

Chapter 141 Do you think I still have a chance?
"Master Jijiu, if I want to become the chief priest, what should I do?"

Lu Ming went to find Gu Chen the next day, but as soon as he said this, Gu Chen was shocked.

The High Priest is equivalent to the ninth level of martial arts, and can truly communicate with heaven and earth, possessing power like a god.

"Well, it's good for young people to be ambitious, but you have to take it slow. Once you truly take power, I will give you the position of Bingzhou Jijiu and retire to Zhongzhou."

"After eighty years, when this High Priest steps down, the Priests of the nine provinces will compete for the position. Only then will you have a chance of becoming the High Priest."

Gu Chen scratched his head. Although it was too early for Lu Ming to think about the position of high priest, he couldn't undermine the young man's self-confidence.

There is still hope, so keep working hard.

Lu Ming fell silent. Eighty years was too long, and he certainly couldn't wait any longer.

"If the current High Priest dies, will we be able to compete for the position of High Priest in advance?"

Lu Ming suddenly spoke, and Gu Chen was completely stumped by his question.

What are you talking about? Even though the High Priest of Zhongzhou is a bastard, you don't have to curse him like that.

Or do you plan to kill him and take over yourself?
"Well, if you understand it that way, it's not wrong, but in all these years of the Martial Temple, no High Priest has ever been killed."

Generally speaking, becoming the Grand Priest of the Martial Temple means becoming the best master in the world and controlling countless instruments of rules. If someone can kill him, the Martial Temple will become a complete joke.

"last question……"

"If one day, an evil god from outside the domain descends upon the human world with a star in his clutches, intending to destroy the world, does the Martial Temple have any way to deal with it?"

Lu Ming asked seriously.

As soon as he said this, Gu Chen, who had been quite relaxed, became serious.

"Where did you hear that?"

Gu Chen stared at Lu Ming.

"The last time I surrounded a few people, they claimed that a star of annihilation was about to descend upon the world, saying that all living things on earth would cease to exist."

Lu Ming did not hide it. This was a matter of life and death. It would be best if the Martial Temple could find a solution.

But he was actually leaning towards despair in his heart, because his body was constantly sensing the approach of the star, constantly facing life and death crisis, and constantly desperately consuming energy to evolve.

"Oh, I see. That scared me."

"The evil gods on the outer stars often awaken. Their consciousness occasionally projects into the human world and infiltrates into the brains of some people."

"Those who receive this consciousness in the human world may eventually become devout believers of the evil gods, and then spread the belief in gods in the human world."

"And the belief in world destruction will inevitably stimulate maximum panic among humans, thereby harvesting more faith."

Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He thought Lu Ming was infected by the evil god, but it turned out that he was just listening to some nonsense.

"If you hear anyone say such nonsense again, you will kill them without mercy."

Gu Chen felt it necessary to correct Lu Ming to prevent him from having further wild thoughts.

"Well... I mean, what if a star is about to fall to Earth? Do we have any way to deal with it, such as remotely blowing it up or redirecting it?"

Lu Ming still refused to give up and continued to ask.

“Uh, no ifs.”

"If that day ever comes, then we can only wait for death. Reaching the ninth level of the martial arts path allows one to communicate with the outer realm. According to the writings left behind by the great priests of past generations who traveled to the outer realm, a single star is wider than the land of Kyushu. If it fell to the ground, everyone would be doomed."

Gu Chen's face darkened. Lu Ming's actions were truly groundless. The high priests had also said that every star moved in a fixed orbit. How could it fall into the human world? This was too absurd.

……

"Is there really no other way?" Lu Ming felt a little uncomfortable after leaving Gu Chen.

He originally thought that the omnipotent Wu Miao could provide him with some help, but as it stands now, once the Star of Annihilation descends, everyone will be doomed.

"No!"

"I don't want to die!"

"I want to save myself..."

Lu Ming looked up at the sky. Although separated by a vast void, he could still feel the star getting closer to the human world, and the power of annihilation that his body was bearing was increasing.

"I want to save myself!"

He made up his mind completely, and then went to the [Beast Breeding Department] without looking back.

"It's delicious... I mean, it's spectacular."

Lu Ming looked up at the mountain of flesh in front of him. Its huge body and abundant blood made him want to drool.

"Senior Brother Lu."

A warrior standing on a high platform was feeding the meat mountain. When he saw Lu Ming coming, he quickly jumped down and saluted.

Lu Ming's current status in Bingzhou Martial Temple is second only to Gu Chen. Even the deans and tutors are inferior to him. Ordinary disciples are even more respectful when they see him.

"You go down first."

Lu Ming nodded and let him leave.

The disciple didn't dare to say much. After bowing again, he left.

"Meat Mountain, Meat Mountain, I fed you so much food before, now it's time for you to repay me."

Lu Ming looked at the body in front of him with fat flowing freely like a river, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

But in the next moment, his mouth suddenly opened wide.

There is a limit to how wide a human mouth can open and close, but he opened it like a snake's mouth, almost turning half of his head over. His teeth were like sharp knives, and he bit into the mountain of flesh.

"Chiliu."

He took a deep breath, and his internal organs exerted force together, and the blood and flesh flowing out of the mountain of meat were swallowed into his stomach like a stream of water.

His intestines and stomach also started working rapidly, turning into a blazing furnace.

The flesh and blood of the meat mountain were instantly transformed into abundant energy. A large amount of energy was stored as crystal cores, but a part of the energy was still used by him immediately.

Because of the abundant energy, the vortex in his chest also released more annihilation power, but it continued to destroy his body.

However, his super-adaptive evolutionary ability can quickly repair and bridge the gap.

In less than a quarter of an hour, his body's toughness increased significantly, and the power of annihilation in normal state could hardly annihilate his body.

But the vortex in the chest can further compress the power of annihilation. These high-concentration powers of annihilation are more destructive and corrosive.

The body, which had been greatly strengthened, showed signs of weathering again.

Lu Ming devoured the flesh and blood of the meat mountain even more frantically, causing his body to evolve further. After about half an hour, even the high concentration of annihilation power could not shake his body.

The vortex continues to purify the power of annihilation, strengthening the body's strength over and over again.

And in the midst of this destruction and repair, he gradually felt that his body had reached its limit, and within his chest and abdomen, it seemed as if a strange power was sprouting.
