The Queen of the Insect Nest panics as her nanomites and strategies fail against Lin Yi's invulnerability, forcing her to order the entire swarm across Nest Insect Star to attack with full force. Lin Yi survives a massive barrage of compressed energy bombs unscathed, protected by alloy shields. Deploying enhanced Dragonfly One under Primordial Chaos Multicast, he gains divine vision to lock onto thousands of incoming insects while defending with Eternal Guardian and preparing a counter.

When Lin Yi wrapped up his incantation chant, the ion cannons mounted on the Ion Jet Beetles' backs had built up a substantial charge.

Positioned in precise formation, their barrels locked onto Lin Yi's spot, radiating a brilliant glow that stirred dread in the heart, all set to unleash.

Though the Ion Jet Beetle crept along slowly with scant close-quarters threat, it excelled as the prime force for distant strikes.

Every barrel shimmered with vivid hues, captivating the eye, and when thousands fired at once, the sight outshone a starry galaxy.

No ordinary being, save for Lin Yi, would dare linger in the strike zone of this ion cannon barrage after beholding their fearsome might.

The Queen of the Insect Nest felt certain she could shatter Lin Yi’s defenses.

In her eyes, nothing stood beyond destruction.

Not even the Nest Insect Star itself.

Prior bombardment had scorched the earth around Lin Yi to ash; this salvo promised to melt it all into a molten inferno below him.

Yet the Queen of the Insect Nest never foresaw that, prior to full charge of the Ion Jet Beetles, a radiant beam pierced the clouds and slammed down fiercely upon the cannon array's location.

Buzz buzz buzz~

A laser beam spanning over ten miles wide blasted without mercy, pumping thousands of degrees of heat straight into every Ion Jet Beetle in the formation.

These beetles harbored highly volatile ion materials, which they could trigger into violent reactions.

That reaction kicked off the charging process.

Upon completion, the Ion Jet Beetles unleashed devastating ion energy blasts at their foes.

This mirrored humanity's heavy artillery loaded with nukes.

A clean shot delivered cataclysmic destruction.

However, should foes spot their setup and ignite those volatile elements early, the fallout defied imagination; the Queen of the Insect Nest knew this risk but refused to dwell on it—even from dozens of meters away, Lin Yi pinpointed the array flawlessly.

Tsk tsk...

Beneath the laser's blistering heat, the pent-up energy in those unstable ions erupted fully.

A blinding fireworks spectacle lit up the Nest Insect Star.

If the assault on Lin Yi shook the ground like an earthquake, the Ion Jet Beetle array's blast rivaled the sky falling.

One grenade's boom paled against an entire ammo dump's detonation.

Fierce tremors radiated from the Ion Jet Beetles' site, colossal flame serpents soared skyward, devouring every bit of the Nest Insect Star's atmosphere with ravenous hunger.

Scorching temperatures obliterated all in their path; near the heart of the blast, matter liquefied.

Even toughest rocks glowed crimson from the massive heat influx.

Insect creatures trapped in the chaos met obvious ends.

Those with armored shells and top-tier defenses stood no chance against such infernal fury; not even Lin Yi’s Dragonfly One robot could endure.

Besides the unscathed Dragonfly One robot, Lin Yi grasped the carnage through system alerts.

........

Endless kill notices scrolled across Lin Yi’s view.

This one blast wiped out swarms of nearby Insect Race stragglers, inflicting massive losses.

Raw power hammered the surface, tearing the earth like brutal fists, vomiting crimson lava in a horrifying surge.

Sensing hordes of her carefully bred progeny vanishing en masse, the Queen of the Insect Nest froze in shock.

After ruling the Nest Insect Star for countless years, such disarray struck her for the first time.

The youth hovering above appeared refined and poised; none would guess the monstrous force lurking within him.

Her head antennae clashed anew.

Fresh waves of insects surged from behind the Queen of the Insect Nest, hurtling toward Lin Yi.

This fight left the Nest Insect Star with no retreat.

Desperate battles and endless delays offered the sole glimmer of hope for survival.

"Keep going!"

Roaring in fury, the Queen of the Insect Nest wildly commanded assaults on Lin Yi.

Vast in numbers and inured to death, the Insect Race frequently relied on wearing down foes through sheer attrition.

Yet against a figure like Lin Yi, whose recovery powers were fully maxed, such tactics proved utterly useless.

Those scorching flames perfectly matched what Lin Yi craved deep within.

In this dire situation, why not evolve into the ultimate blaze and ignite this world in even wilder infernos?

Blue and orange fires danced across the lower skies.

Surrounded by them, Lin Yi had triggered his Supreme Ascension state.

Under this form, no Insect Race strikes could touch him whatsoever.

Even simple spells like Fireball Technique or Fire Ring Burst, amplified by Primordial Chaos passives, multiplied into thousands.

Vast in scope and devastating in might.

Countless insect hordes found themselves powerless against Lin Yi.

Right then, they embodied the tragic fate of moths drawn to the flame.

Rare materials rained down endlessly as insect swarms perished.

High-level pros used to grinding resources in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms would goggle in awe at this sight.

Time wore on, and insect warrior bodies stacked into towering heaps.

Lin You and Lin Qianqian managed to spot Spirit Crystals too, mapping half of Nest Insect Star into the device.

Soundwave scans reveal hidden wonders beyond plain sight.

For example, Nest Insect Star hid immense riches beneath its surface.

Thanks to its primitive society, the planet's mineral riches lay untouched.

Valuable ores that boost multidimensional power slumbered deep, hundreds of meters below ground.

Should Blue Star's explorers civilize Nest Insect Star, they'd harvest endless wealth to propel their pros to new heights.

Exploiting resources comes later.

Right now, Lin Yi cared most about the path to the Queen of the Insect Nest's palace.

Via the mapping, Lin You uncovered an egg transport route.

Deeper along this path lay numerous forks, appearing disordered at first glance, yet closer scrutiny showed every route converging toward or stemming from a single point.
