The People's God: Sacrificing Trillions to Ascend-Chapter 494 - Han Wu’s Path

The trio had never seen Desolate Beasts before and were thoroughly fascinated by Han Wu’s core race. Upon learning that his units would soon evolve into different life forms, they decided to stay and observe the entire process.

They waited two hours before the first blood-red egg started to hatch. Xiang Meng noticed it first and quickly called the two to check it out.

Cracks webbed across the egg. Then, a new life form emerged.

It was a young mammoth!

As Xiang Meng’s core race was the mammoth, he could identify its species the moment it hatched. It was a rare species of mammoth born in the Demonic Civilization called the Demon Mammoth.

If his memory served him right, the life form that had turned into the red egg was a Sabertooth Dog. The Sabertooth Dog was an Elite life form at best, while the Demon Mammoth was a Unique life form with strength rivaling that of a Heroic life form.

The trio was dumbfounded. They never expected Random Evolution to lift the unit’s grade by such a large margin. What kind of change would they get if they could use it on their own core races?

Despite having already experienced it once, they were still caught off guard when the second egg hatched. This time, it was just a regular pug. They clearly remembered the egg had been a tiger-like life form before. Why did it become worse?

Bewildered, Xia Tian glanced at Han Wu, hoping for an explanation.

Han Wu splayed his arms open. “This is the charm of Random Evolution. I have no idea what they could become.”

Xiang Meng’s voice rose an octave. “How is that good? It was a good unit before it evolved, but now it’s much weaker. What use is there to this?”

“You’re not wrong, but you forget that Random Evolution can be activated many times,” Han Wu explained. “It doesn’t matter if it fails because there’s always another chance in the future. Also, while their form is random, their Life Energy always doubles. Even if they aren’t a strong race, their overall strength could still be alright. If one got lucky and evolved into an exceptionally powerful race, it would be like winning the lottery for me.”

Xia Tian remained unconvinced. “But Random Evolution is unpredictable. The chance of getting a powerful unit is exceedingly rare.”

Han Wu chuckled. “That’s fine. Having a slim chance is better than having none at all. Not all of your units will become a Heroic, Lord, or High Lord life form even if you nurture them earnestly. Exceedingly powerful individuals are meant to be few and far between. As for the ones that become regular races, they’ll still be quite strong with all that Life Energy in them. At the very least, they won’t be weaker than a locust.”

The trio found no flaw in Han Wu’s words. Though it sounded illogical at first, it was actually quite reasonable once they considered it further. Even they couldn’t assign the resources fairly amongst their core race, with the talented ones benefiting more while the untalented ones receiving less.

Moreover, Random Evolution did indeed give Han Wu’s weak core race a chance to become stronger. Every evolution was another opportunity. They only succeed once to become a talented race.

It was definitely faster than the old-fashioned way. The trio grew excited. They wanted to follow in Han Wu’s footsteps and test out Random Evolution.

Xiang Meng was fairly simple-minded and asked Han Wu to teach them on the spot. Xia Tian and Ye Ling looked at him scornfully for his rudeness. Who would want to share their secret method of nurturing powerful units?

Han Wu, however, didn't mind at all. Not only was he not worried about being copied, but he was actually hoping his experiences would inspire others.

“It’s simple. First, enter the Desolate Civilization and find a Desolate Beast with a sliver of the Will of the Desolate Civilization. You can then slay it and incorporate it into the Will of your divine realm. Once you do that, there’s a large chance that your core race will obtain Random Evolution. Simple, right?”

The trio was flabbergasted. It was easier said than done, and the risk involved was extremely high.

To begin with, it was difficult to enter the Desolate Civilization. Furthermore, it was a massive civilization that followed the law of the jungle, with strength on par with the Divine Civilization.

Even survival would be an issue there, let alone hunting down powerful prey that contained the sliver of the Will of the Desolate Civilization. Not to mention, a Desolate Beast acknowledged by the Will of the Desolate Civilization could not possibly be weak.

Wanting to confirm this, Xia Tian asked one last question, “Junior Han Wu, how strong was the beast that you killed?"

“Around the peak of an Earthsunder life form.” Han Wu pursed his lips. “It killed almost all of my Earthsunder life forms.”

The trio inhaled sharply. Han Wu had eight Earthsunder life forms, and even he almost died. Evidently, the Desolate Beast had been exceedingly powerful.

This confirmed it. It was almost impossible to get Random Evolution.

“I think we should just focus on invading the Enlarged Civilization for now.” Ye Ling coughed. “The Desolate Civilization is too strong for us. We aren’t confident in conquering it.”

Both Xia Tian and Xiang Meng nodded in agreement.

Han Wu, on the other hand, sighed at their lack of fighting spirit. After all, what if they succeeded?
