On the island, everyone is fishing, and I am the only one who has obtained the epic talent

"Star-Swallowing Vine!?"

Mu Yu was stunned. He didn't expect that the event Mr. Mu was referring to actually coincided exactly with his own goal.

When rescuing Mr. Mu and helping him recover his strength, Mu Yu was very busy. I remember that he was also entangled with pollutants and the Ghost King of the Cannibal Cult.

Now that his strength has improved and he is no longer what he used to be, Mu Yu is completely interested in Mr. Mu's commission:

"To be honest, I happen to have some ideas about that thing as well. My epic weapon, the God-Slayer Scythe, is only one step away from becoming a demigod. Many buildings, including those inside the Dragon's Lair, also require the Devouring attribute."

If ordinary buildings do not incorporate the devouring characteristics, they can only obtain exclusive materials to upgrade them, or rely on the twelfth-level grasping chain furnace to provide advanced fragments.

But if it has the devouring characteristic like the Sky-Devouring Black Dragon Sword, not only can the buildings and weapons themselves break through the bottleneck, but it is also possible to gain the ability to improve themselves if the devouring characteristic is sufficient.

For example, the core miracle dragon tooth grass of the Rock Barrier can continuously improve itself by absorbing high-quality and high-quantity dragon energy and multi-attribute energy.

"When I recovered my epic strength a few days ago, I realized that the growth rate of the Star-Swallowing Vine was not right."

Mr. Mu looked solemn, and slowly spoke while looking at Mu Yu:

"In fact, after the ban on the powerful warriors in the Prisoner Sea ended, the Star Devouring Vine absorbed various powers and completed a transformation that was unknown to the public."

"Once I realized that this Star-Devouring Vine was extremely evil and even preferred the flesh and blood of humans and ferocious beasts, things began to take an uncontrollable turn."

"But I've explained all this before, and you know that even though the Star-Devouring Vine is terrifying, it's still within my control. With my high-level epic power, I can still barely avoid the threat."

"But the real change began when it completely devoured the flesh and blood of the Star-Devouring Arc Beast and then came into contact with an unknown existence deep in the sea."

From Mr. Mu's introduction, we learned that Mu Yu was not strong enough earlier, so he did not think that Mu Yu could come to the Tianju Sea to help him deal with the aftermath of the Star-Swallowing Vine's mutation.

But he didn't expect that things are different now. He can now tell these events to Mu Yu, who is full of potential.

“I believe you have also noticed that the life forms in the deep sea nearby have been almost completely devoured.

It's not an adjective, but a truly horrific death toll, one that left no room for maneuver.

Mr. Mu spoke softly, a hint of bitterness appearing on his old face:

"Taking the time since you acquired the Star-Swallowing Arc Beast's dermis as the starting point, the connection between this Star-Swallowing Arc Beast's dermis and the seabed of the Heavenly Prisoner Sea seems to be beyond human control."

"At first, I thought that no matter how much this Star-Swallowing Vine developed, even if it contained the blood of the Star Beast, it would not be able to break through the demigod level. But as time passed, the facts proved that I was completely wrong."

Mr. Mu recounted his many experiences of venturing into the seabed and trying to resolve the mutated Star-Swallowing Vine, then he sighed and said:

"The body that the Star-Swallowing Vine absorbed after its bloodlust was actually its roots. By some strange coincidence, they were connected to the immense and boundless sea beast at the bottom of the sea!!!"

"What!?"

The tea in Mu Yu's hand splashed everywhere. He listened to Mr. Mu's conclusion with a look of disbelief. The super sea beast plan in the Tianju Sea was actually related to the wildly growing Star-Swallowing Vine?

As he solemnly said this ridiculous speculation, Mr. Mu seemed to have two more wrinkles on his face:

“I know you may not believe my explanation, but facts speak louder than words. Otherwise, think about it, how could I have made such breakthroughs in such a short period of time?

This is the demigod level, not the extraordinary or legendary level that can be cut into pieces..."

The more Mr. Mu spoke, the more helpless his voice became, and Mu Yu vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Being able to draw such a confident conclusion meant that Mr. Mu had definitely come into contact with the mutated Star Devouring Vine or the super sea beast. But since he was now safe and sound and had made great progress in his strength, then...

Mr. Mu...what are you hiding?

"Well, there's no need to hide it. In fact, it has developed to this point, and I don't have the ability to hide it anymore, or delay it any longer."

Soon, Mr. Mu's somewhat frustrated sigh directly broke all of Mu Yu's doubts.

As his pupils dilated and his breathing became heavier, Mr. Mu stretched out his hands and directly revealed the throbbing root pattern of the "Star-Swallowing Vine" on his chest.

It was like a vicious curse of opportunism, firmly rooted in Mr. Mu's heart:

"The so-called fruit and power that can break through from Epic 12th level to Demigod 5th level are all bait deliberately spread by the fusion of the Star Devouring Vine and the Super Sea Beast."

"I was blinded by my strength. Leveraging the power I thought I had gained through adventures and my own insights, I achieved incredible progress under the stimulation of a higher power."

"But in the end, the accumulated toxins and the Star Devouring Vine taking root in my flesh actually seemed to be about to completely devour and control me, a fifth-level demigod."

No wonder, no wonder...

At this point, Mu Yu finally understood why Mr. Mu said that his fifth-level strength could not be maintained for a long time when they discussed the plan. Did he actually use his own strength to continuously fight against the Star-Swallowing Vine and the super sea beast?

Mr. Mu gently stroked the vines that extended from his heart and then spread all over his limbs, and said softly:

“When I realized the truth, it was already too late. The last time I helped you, I thought it was just to repay your favor.

but……"

Mr. Mu tore open his robe and threw it away, revealing that it was almost 70% Star Swallowing Vine. He said solemnly:

"Right now, all that's left of this old man is his unwavering willpower to resist the combined power of the Star-Swallowing Vine and the sea beast. This is all my strength since reaching the twelfth epic stage, and it all comes from them..."

"Even... they can't even self-destruct. Under the influence of their strength and energy, they will only move further and further towards the abyss until they become their puppets."

Mr. Mu's expression showed a hint of despair, and Ling Ning, who was listening next to him, almost knelt down to Mu Yu.

"I'm not afraid of death, but if I die in this way, a survivor like me who absorbed the power of the Star Devouring Vine to achieve a breakthrough and then mutate will completely become an incarnation of this alien species of Star Devouring Vine."

"At that time, it will spread like pollutants, and will spread rapidly in the same way as fungi, vines, herbs, and other plants."

As he spoke, green veins appeared on Mr. Mu's neck. In a few days at most, this old man who was devoted to humanity would die completely.

But Mr. Mu smiled slightly, not caring about death. He solemnly took Mu Yu's hand and said with a smile:

"Could you please kill me and seal me deep in the ocean, completely obliterating me?"
