My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit-Chapter 394 - 315: The Insect Race’s Doomsday (Part 3)

After the cells of the Divine Tree entered the body of the Shabu Insect Race, they could devour the insect’s energy and grow within!

Within just a few minutes, the insect stopped struggling, and a branch grew from its corpse, seemingly thriving with extraordinary vigor.

Not much processing and modification was needed; Xue Dili only had to consider using this thing to wipe out the insect swarm. What remained was the outbreak of the Divine Tree Deadpool Catastrophe, like how Earth’s parallel world still has hundreds of millions of deadpools.

Therefore, Xue Dili quickly modified a kind of Divine Tree cell through Cursed Blood, by hiding a bacteriophage within the Divine Tree cell through a simple membrane, then concealing it within the source core of the Divine Tree cell.

Under normal circumstances, the proliferation and growth of Divine Tree cells would not trigger the bacteriophage within the source core. However, as soon as the Divine Tree begins to absorb spirituality and starts reproducing, the membrane will break, and the bacteriophage will swarm out to destroy the Divine Tree.

Xue Dili then asked for another Shabu Insect, and this time, he gradually cultivated a special Divine Tree cell through Cursed Blood, growing a plant. Xue Dili simply plucked a segment of the branch as a projectile, and the wooden Divine Tree bullet directly hit the corpse of the Shabu Insect.

"Snap!"

The hard shell of the Shabu Insect was rooted the moment the Divine Tree bullet hit it. The roots of the Divine Tree drilled crazily into the insect’s shell, quickly absorbing the insect’s vitality.

"Brother, this is..." 5332 came back to refill the flamethrower fuel but suddenly saw Xue Dili’s experiment progress. He saw the Divine Tree growing crazily inside the insect, bursting from within with branches and wooden spikes, turning the still-living insect into a sea urchin-like monster.

But that wasn’t all. Soon after, those branches and wooden spikes wilted and decayed as if they encountered a natural enemy. In just a few minutes, the thriving Divine Tree directly died, turning into branches indistinguishable from ordinary dead wood.

Xue Dili’s mouth curled up, and he even exclaimed excitedly, "Aha! It worked!"

During the battle with the Ninth Apostle, Xue Dili learned from the Interstellar Corps’ information that those non-purebreed insects could become Divine Tree nutrients. Xue Dili understood then that, at least in terms of position and power, the Divine Tree must far surpass the insects.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t be the Divine Tree absorbing the insects, but the Insect Race gnawing on the great tree.

Xue Dili’s approach was merely to stab the branch into the insect’s body to let it grow wildly, at most adding a self-destruct system to the branch.

Seeing 5332, Xue Dili expressed something puzzling to 5332.

"5332, have everyone collect the insect corpses and create an environment similar to biological primordial soup for me. I found a special attack method against the Insect Race. With this weapon, you can even effortlessly defeat any insect beast except the Insect God!" Xue Dili excitedly pointed to the insect that had exploded from within by branches.

This is a strategy of driving a tiger to swallow a wolf.

Use the Divine Tree to kill the insect, then use the bacteriophage to kill the Divine Tree seedling. Finally, after the bacteriophage falls into nature, it will collectively die within minutes, achieving a perfect cycle.

He doesn’t even plan to keep this method a secret. Conveniently, with quite a few members of the Interstellar Corps around, Xue Dili decides to gift this to everyone in the Interstellar Corps.

...

Soon after receiving the news, a man over two meters tall, looking somewhat like an elf, came to Xue Dili and said, "Sage, I heard you developed a special weapon against the Shabu Insect Race?"

The Interstellar Corps has never had an effective response to the Shabu Insect Race, often resorting to starting with the Star Annihilator Cannon.

Or simply continuously monitoring the swarm’s movements and resolving these damned things before the insect disaster erupts.

Their method for exterminating the Insect Race is to use the purest energy attack to completely annihilate them, rendering their contamination ineffective.

Simultaneously, the insect swarm’s large numbers and strong individual combat abilities mean that the pure-blooded insect empress descendants are at least quasi-5th tier, making it difficult for many ordinary Interstellar Corps members to cope.

It can be said that the workload of the entire Interstellar Corps, the swarm accounts for at least half.

They have studied many viruses or poisons targeting the swarm, but often after killing some insects, the remaining swarm quickly develops adaptability, rendering the virus ineffective.

But Xue Dili, also an Apostle, understood that most insects’ destinies would become Divine Tree nutrients, so even under the Sixth Apostle’s control, it wouldn’t allow the swarm to have the ability to counter the Divine Tree.

Therefore, at least in the Sixth Apostle’s hands, the swarm’s base code places them forever below the Divine Tree.

Then use Magic to fight Magic, use Natural Disaster to combat Natural Disaster, use the Divine Tree to kill the insects!

Xue Dili looked at the Interstellar Corps member who came to contact him and asked, "Did the Interstellar Corps never consider using the power of the Divine Tree to deal with the Insect Race?"

In the memory of the old man, Xue Dili knew that, in ancient times, the veterans of the Interstellar Corps could also harness the Divine Tree to accomplish the impossible, even having a plan so grand as to have a planet-sized Divine Tree push a black hole.

But this high-elf-like guy instantly showed a constipated expression and then said, "We once attempted similar techniques... but it resulted in Divine Tree seedlings overpoweringly infesting several planets."
