All Realms and Worlds: The Lost Home

Finally, after countless failures and after they had exhausted almost all their efforts, a brand new gene serum was successfully developed!

It was a dark red potion containing powerful and strange energy. It was a potion they had painstakingly developed by fusing the genes of countless powerful creatures, the genes of the three of them, and the power of the Sentinel fragments. They firmly believed that as long as they injected this potion, they would gain immense power, be able to contend with the strongest beings in all realms, and protect their world.

"We did it! We did it!" Staring blankly at the potion in her hand, a bright smile appeared on her little face. She was so excited that she couldn't speak coherently, and her eyes were full of hope.

Yao Guang also revealed a relieved smile, the weariness in his eyes instantly disappearing. He looked at the potion in his hand, then at Ye Fan beside him, his voice filled with excitement: "Ye Fan, we succeeded! We finally developed the potion! We have hope! We can protect our world now!"

Ye Fan looked at the potion in his hand, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes. However, that excitement did not last long before it was replaced by a sense of unease. He looked at the strange energy churning wildly within the potion, and a bad premonition inexplicably rose in his heart. He had a feeling that this potion was not as simple as they thought, and that it might bring even greater disaster.

"Wait, Yaoguang, Daidai, we can't be careless." Ye Fan's tone became serious. He gripped the potion tightly in his hand, his eyes wary. "This potion contains too strange energy. We haven't conducted a complete test yet. We don't know what will happen after the injection. We can't use it rashly."

Yao Guang nodded, his excitement gradually subsiding. He understood Ye Fan's concerns. This potion was too potent and too strange; if anything went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable. Looking at the potion in his hand, he said solemnly, "You're right, Ye Fan. We can't use it rashly. We must test it as soon as possible to ensure its safety."

Daidai nodded, her tone sincere: "Brother Ye Fan, Brother Yao Guang, don't worry, I will fully cooperate with you in conducting the drug tests and make sure the drug is safe."

But they no longer have time.

Just as they were preparing to conduct the drug test, the laboratory door was suddenly forcibly breached, and countless powerful beings from all realms surged into the laboratory like hungry wolves. Their eyes were cold and brutal, and the weapons in their hands gleamed with a dazzling cold light as they pounced fiercely towards Ye Fan, Yao Guang, and Dai Dai.

"Not good! A powerful being from all realms has arrived!" Yao Guang's expression changed, a hint of fear flashing in her eyes. She hurriedly handed the potion in her hand to Ye Fan, her tone urgent, "Ye Fan, take this potion and leave quickly! We'll hold them off!"

"No! We'll go together!" Ye Fan gripped the potion tightly, his eyes resolute. "I will never abandon you all, never leave alone! We'll fight side by side, even if we die, we'll die together!"

"Brother Ye Fan, you have to go!" Dai Dai cried out urgently. "Our mission is to protect you and the medicine. As long as you live, as long as the medicine is still here, we still have hope, we can still protect our world! Go quickly!"

After saying that, Daidai no longer hesitated, turned around abruptly, and charged fiercely towards those powerful beings from all realms. He used all his strength, wielding his weapon, trying to hold them off and buy time for Ye Fan and Yao Guang to escape.

"Daidai!" Ye Fan roared, his eyes filled with pain and resentment. He wanted to rush forward to save Daidai, but Yao Guang held him back tightly.

"Ye Fan, don't be impulsive!" Yao Guang's tone was urgent and firm. "Daidai is right, we can't be impulsive. We must protect the medicine, we must survive. This is our only hope, the chance Daidai fought for us with her life! Let's go!"

After saying that, Yao Guang no longer hesitated. She grabbed Ye Fan and ran quickly toward the secret passage of the laboratory. Behind them came a series of loud and mournful roars, the booming sound of weapons clashing, and the brutal laughter of powerful beings from all realms. Those sounds were like the sharpest knives, piercing Ye Fan and Yao Guang's hearts and filling them with pain and resentment.

They knew that Daidai was probably in grave danger.

But they had no time to grieve, no time to hesitate. They could only run desperately, desperately try to survive, and hold onto the medicine in their hands tightly, because they knew it was their only hope, the hope that Daidai had fought for with her life. They absolutely could not let Daidai down.

After escaping the laboratory, Ye Fan and Yao Guang didn't stop for a moment. They ran all the way and hid in a secluded cave, temporarily escaping the pursuit of the powerful beings from all realms.

Inside the dark and damp cave, Ye Fan and Yao Guang, covered in wounds and breathing erratically, sat silently on the ground, their faces etched with exhaustion and pain. The only sounds in the cave were their heavy breathing and the endless sorrow and despair in their hearts.

"Daidai..." Yaoguang murmured to herself, her voice hoarse and broken, tears already streaming uncontrollably down her cheeks. "It's all my fault...it's all my fault...if we had been better prepared, Daidai wouldn't have died, our people wouldn't have died, and our world wouldn't be like this now..."

Ye Fan gripped the medicine tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force. Tears welled up in his eyes and rolled down his cheeks. Looking at the medicine in his hand, the pain and resentment in his heart grew stronger, along with a deep sense of regret. He hated his weakness, his incompetence, his inability to protect those around him, and his inability to safeguard his world.

"We cannot give up, we absolutely cannot give up."

"Dazed gave his life to buy us a chance. We cannot let his sacrifice go to waste. We must use this potion, we must gain immense power, we must fight against the strongest beings from all realms, we must avenge Dazed, we must protect our remaining compatriots, and we must protect our world!"

Looking into Ye Fan's resolute eyes, Yao Guang's sorrow and despair were gradually replaced by determination. He nodded, wiped away his tears, and said resolutely, "You're right, Ye Fan. We can't give up. We can't let Dai Dai's sacrifice be in vain. We must use the potion, we must obtain powerful strength, we must avenge Dai Dai, and we must protect our world!"

Without hesitation, Ye Fan and Yao Guang each took out a bottle of gene serum, plunged it into their arms, and forcefully pressed the switch on the vial, injecting the powerful and strange energy-containing serum into their bodies.

The moment the medicine was injected into their bodies, an intense, extreme pain swept over them, a hundred or even a thousand times more painful than being severely injured by a powerful being from another realm!

Their meridians felt as if they were being torn apart, their bones as if they were being crushed, and their souls as if they were being devoured. The intense pain caused them to let out mournful roars, their bodies convulsing violently. Their skin turned bright red instantly, with veins bulging like venomous snakes coiling around their bodies.

The energy of the potion raged, collided, and fused wildly within their bodies. Their genes were forcibly modified, their bodies were forcibly strengthened, and their aura was rapidly increasing at a visible speed. A powerful, suffocating force was gradually erupting from within them.

But they were unaware that an even greater disaster was quietly approaching.

This gene serum, while possessing formidable power that allows them to rapidly grow stronger and contend with powerful beings from all realms, also has a fatal flaw: it contains a bizarre infectious gene. This gene can not only modify their bodies but also spread rapidly through the air and blood, infecting all living things in the surrounding area.

Just as Ye Fan and Yao Guang were enduring endless pain and rapidly growing stronger, that strange infectious gene had already spread out of their bodies, spreading rapidly through the air and blood to the outside of the cave and into the entire starry sky.

The first to be infected were the wounded soldiers and the surviving comrades. After being infected, their bodies rapidly mutated. Their skin became hard and dark, they grew hideous exoskeletons, their eyes turned blood red, they lost all reason, and became brutal and bloodthirsty, like monsters, frantically pouncing on those around them, tearing and devouring them.

Next came the ordinary creatures on the planet, the flowers, trees, birds, and beasts. After being infected, they also mutated, turning into brutal and bloodthirsty monsters, becoming members of the insectoid race, and frantically attacking all uninfected creatures.

The infection spread faster and faster, sweeping across the entire starry sky like a tidal wave. More and more creatures were infected and turned into insectoids. More and more planets were occupied by the insectoids, and more and more lives were devoured by them. The entire starry sky was plunged into endless darkness and despair.

When Ye Fan and Yao Guang finally endured the pain of the potion, completely controlled the power within their bodies, and walked out of the cave, what they saw was a horrific scene.

The entire starry sky was occupied by the Zerg. The Zerg swarmed across the sky, roaring and restless, frantically devouring all life. Those familiar compatriots, those comrades who fought side by side, those lovely creatures, had all become brutal and bloodthirsty Zerg, all became the monsters they once hated the most.

Their initial intention in developing the potion was to fight against the powerful beings of all realms, to protect their own world, and to protect the people around them. But they never expected that the final result would be like this.

Instead of confronting the powerful beings of all realms, they personally pushed their own world to the brink of destruction, personally turned all the creatures in the entire starry sky into a brutal and bloodthirsty insectoid race, and personally created an even greater catastrophe.

"No...it's not like that..." Ye Fan roared, his voice shrill and desperate. He looked at the horrific scene before him, at his once-familiar brethren now transformed into insectoids. The pain and regret in his heart overwhelmed him like a tidal wave. "I didn't mean to...I really didn't mean to...I just wanted to protect our world, I just wanted to protect the people around me...Why? Why did it turn out like this?!"

Yao Guang completely broke down. He stood there blankly, staring at the horrific scene before him, his eyes filled with despair and numbness. He muttered to himself, his voice hoarse and broken: "It's all my fault...it's all my fault...If I hadn't developed this potion, if I hadn't been so obsessive, if I had discovered the potion's flaws sooner, this wouldn't have happened, so many people wouldn't have turned into Zerg, so many lives wouldn't have been devoured..."

They wanted to stop it, to salvage it, to turn the infected creatures back to normal, but they were powerless. The scope of the infection was too vast, the speed of infection was too fast, and the number of insectoids was too great. Even with their formidable power, they could not stop it or salvage it.

They knew they had committed heinous crimes, that they had personally created this disaster, and that they had to take responsibility, make amends for their mistakes, stop the powerful beings from all realms, and avenge their infected compatriots and the lives lost!

But at that moment, the infected Zerg suddenly moved.

Instead of continuing to devour lives or attack the surviving creatures, they turned around and quickly flew towards Ye Fan. The countless insectoids, like the most loyal guardians, surrounded Ye Fan, emitting a faint glow, as if responding to Ye Fan's resolute decision and proclaiming their loyalty.

Ye Fan and Yao Guang were both stunned. They looked at the insectoids around them, at their once familiar comrades who had now become insectoids but were still protecting them. The bitterness and heartache in their hearts grew stronger.

"You..." Ye Fan murmured to himself, his voice hoarse and broken, and tears once again rolled down his cheeks uncontrollably.

Just then, a faint consciousness entered Ye Fan's mind. It was the combined consciousness of all the insectoid races, forming a voice that was gentle yet firm, filled with boundless loyalty and determination: "King, we know you didn't do it on purpose. We know you want to make amends for your mistakes, to protect this starry sky, and to avenge us. We are willing to sacrifice ourselves to forge a stronger you. We are willing to exchange our lives for the last hope of this starry sky. We are willing to stand with you against those powerful beings from all realms, even if our souls are scattered, even if we are reduced to nothingness, we will never back down!"

One sentence struck Ye Fan's heart instantly, causing the pain and regret in his heart to overwhelm him like a tidal wave, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

He knew that although these insectoids had been infected, lost their minds, and turned into monsters, they still retained a sliver of clarity in their hearts. They still remembered that they were once human, that they once had their home, and that they wanted to protect the people they wanted to protect. They were willing to give their lives to make him stronger, willing to give their lives to atone for the mistakes he had made, and willing to give their lives to protect the last hope of this starry sky.

"No...no!" Ye Fan roared, his voice shrill and desperate. "I can't let you do this! I can't let you sacrifice yourselves for me! This is my fault, and I should bear it alone, I should make amends alone. I don't need you to sacrifice yourselves for me!"

But the insectoids did not heed Ye Fan's words. They remained steadfastly around him, the faint light around them growing brighter and brighter. Their bodies were gradually becoming transparent and dissipating. They were using their lives, their souls, and everything they had to forge a powerful Ye Fan. They were gathering all the energy within them into Ye Fan's body, making him even stronger and more invincible.

"King, don't be sad. This is our choice, and we did it willingly." The consciousness of all the Zerg once again entered Ye Fan's mind, gentle yet firm. "As long as you can become strong, as long as you can stop the powerful beings from all realms, as long as you can protect this starry sky, as long as you can make amends for your mistakes, our sacrifice will be worthwhile, our efforts will be meaningful. King, keep going, we believe in you, you can definitely do it!"

After speaking, the bodies of those insectoids became completely transparent and vanished into the void. Their energy, their souls, everything about them converged into Ye Fan's body, like warm currents flowing into his limbs and bones, causing Ye Fan's aura to rapidly increase at a visible speed, becoming more and more powerful and invincible.

Ye Fan's body was rapidly expanding. His black exoskeleton was becoming thicker and more ferocious. A hint of invincible pressure flashed in his blood-red eyes. A power that surpassed that of the strongest beings in all realms erupted from his body, instantly sweeping across the entire starry sky. This caused the strongest beings in all realms to turn pale, tremble all over, and have fear and despair in their eyes.

Yao Guang stood beside Ye Fan, watching the insectoids dissipate into the void one by one. As Ye Fan's aura grew stronger and stronger, the bitterness and heartache in his heart intensified, and tears streamed down his face like broken beads. Yet, a relieved smile appeared on his face. He knew that the sacrifice of those insectoids had not been in vain. They had finally cultivated a power capable of contending with the strongest beings in the myriad realms. They finally had hope of making amends for their mistakes and avenging the lives lost.

Ye Fan felt the invincible power within his body, and the power that the insectoids had forged for him with their lives. The pain and regret in his heart grew stronger, and tears streamed down his face. He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with determination and resolve. He vowed to make good use of this power, to stop the powerful beings from all realms, to avenge the sacrificed insectoids, to avenge his fallen comrades, and to avenge Daidai. He vowed to atone for his mistakes and to protect the last hope of this starry sky.

"Powerful beings from all realms, your death is nigh!"

Ye Fan roared, his voice sharp and resolute, carrying an invincible pressure that resounded throughout the entire starry sky. With a swift movement, he appeared in front of those powerful beings from all realms. Without the slightest hesitation, he raised his enormous palm and slammed it fiercely towards them!

An incredibly powerful force erupted from his palm, like a monstrous wave, sweeping fiercely towards the powerful beings from all realms. These powerful beings were utterly unable to resist, and didn't even have time to react before being struck by that powerful force, instantly turning into minced meat and blood mist that dissipated into the void.

The remaining powerful beings from all realms, witnessing this scene, were filled with fear and despair. Gone was their previous brutality and greed, their previous arrogance and domineering nature. They all turned around, wanting to escape and save their lives, but they were simply unable to escape.

Ye Fan's figure flashed, instantly appearing before them. Like the Grim Reaper, he reaped their lives. With each wave of his hand, countless powerful beings from all realms were turned into mincemeat. With each attack, countless powerful beings from all realms were annihilated. His movements were cold and ruthless, without the slightest hesitation or mercy. He wanted to use the blood of these powerful beings from all realms to pay tribute to the sacrificed insectoids, to pay tribute to his dead comrades, and to pay tribute to the spirits of those who were still alive in the heavens.

A one-sided massacre quietly unfolded in the starry sky. Countless powerful beings from all realms were slaughtered by Ye Fan like ants, without any power to resist or any chance to fight back. Soon, all the powerful beings from all realms were completely killed by Ye Fan, turning into a sky full of blood mist that dissipated into the void.

The powerful beings from all realms were completely annihilated.

Ye Fan finally avenged the sacrificed Zerg, the dead compatriots, and Daidai. He finally stopped the invasion of the powerful beings from all realms and made amends for some of the mistakes he had made.

But he felt no joy whatsoever; his heart was filled only with endless pain and regret, endless loneliness and numbness.

Because all the infected Zerg had perished, and their fallen brethren could not be resurrected. Daidai could not return. The world he lived in had been completely destroyed, and all the creatures in the entire starry sky had been devoured. Only he and Yaoguang remained, standing alone in this desolate starry sky, looking at the ruins before them, at this ravaged starry sky, their hearts filled with endless despair and numbness.

They won; they defeated the powerful beings from all realms. But they also lost—they lost their homeland, their compatriots, their friends, all their hopes, and everything they had.

"Ye Fan, we won...we finally won..." Yao Guang stood there blankly, staring at the ruins before her, her eyes filled with despair and numbness, her voice hoarse and broken, "But we...we lost too...we lost everything..."

Ye Fan looked at Yao Guang, then at the ruins before him. The despair and numbness in his eyes deepened. He murmured to himself, his voice hoarse and broken: "Yes, we won, but we also lost, lost everything..."

"If... if we hadn't developed that drug, if we had discovered its flaws sooner, if we hadn't been so obsessive, if we had been able to give up, perhaps this wouldn't have happened. Perhaps our homeland wouldn't have been destroyed, perhaps our compatriots wouldn't have died, perhaps Daidai wouldn't have left us..."

"But there are no 'what ifs'... there are no 'what ifs'..."

Ye Fan's roar, shrill and desperate, echoed slowly in the desolate starry sky, carrying endless pain and regret, endless loneliness and numbness. Hearing it, one's heart ached and tears welled up in their eyes.

Just then, Yao Guang suddenly remembered something, and he slowly raised his head.
