Selling his divinity to Qin Shuang, Han Wu received 1.5 billion divine power.

Now Han Wu was truly wealthy.

It was like an ordinary person suddenly winning the lottery and getting five million.

Overnight wealth.

Perhaps to most people, Han Wu's actions seemed like giving up a watermelon to pick up a sesame seed.

But Han Wu had no regrets.

With this divine power, he could greatly develop the Divine Realm and cultivate his followers.

By the time he made a sacrifice, wouldn't that bit of divinity return to him?

After school, Han Wu rushed into the Divine Realm as soon as he got home.

He wanted to use all the resources he gained from today's unified exam to convert them into his own strength.

A 20-square-kilometer forest terrain was loaded into the Divine Realm, connecting with the existing woods.

A level 1 Divine Temple was chosen to be built not far from the Crimson Forge Dwarf camp.

The Fountain of Life was placed on a barren piece of land. In time, the barren land would become fertile under the nourishment of the Fountain of Life.

In addition, Han Wu used the Proliferation Card on the locusts, causing their already prolific numbers to surge.

After handling these matters, Han Wu picked up the divine weapon: the Inferno Warhammer and the Transcendent Seed, and headed to the Crimson Forge Dwarves.

After a period of rest and recuperation, the number of Crimson Forge Dwarves had slightly increased to 59.

In the absence of war, they mined and forged, living a simple yet fulfilling life.

Han Wu's appearance excited the Crimson Forge Dwarves, who all knelt on the ground, proclaiming the greatness of the divine and praising the deity.

Looking at the kneeling Crimson Forge Dwarves, Han Wu couldn't help but think how wonderful it would be if they were his core followers.

He first made a few ceremonial declarations, then bestowed the divine weapon: the Inferno Warhammer.

He also selected the strongest young dwarf among them, bestowed the Transcendent Seed, and named him Divine Hammer, encouraging him to enhance his strength and become a hero capable of wielding the Inferno Warhammer.

The two blessings made the Crimson Forge Dwarves ecstatic, and their faith in Han Wu became purer.

All became devout followers. The Crimson Forge Dwarf Divine Hammer, who received the Transcendent Seed, became a fanatic.

Han Wu nodded in satisfaction, offered a few more words of encouragement, and then left.

At this point, the only reward from the unified exam that remained unused was the level 1 sacred relic: the Toxic Mist Orb.

Han Wu had chosen this sacred relic based on a hint from his homeroom teacher, Tian Wen.

But what exactly was its use?

Just as Han Wu was puzzled, a video request came through.

It was from his homeroom teacher, Tian Wen.

Han Wu quickly answered.

Tian Wen's image appeared before Han Wu.

"Teacher, what brings you to me so late?" Han Wu asked.

Tian Wen got straight to the point: "In today's unified exam, regarding who was more outstanding between you and Liu Mo, I bet 5 points of divinity with Liu Letian, and I won big."

Han Wu quickly congratulated him: "Congratulations, teacher."

But what did Tian Wen winning 5 points of divinity have to do with Han Wu?

Was he calling just to show off?

Tian Wen smiled: "You contributed to this bet, so I'm planning to share a bit with you."

As he spoke, Tian Wen opened his hands, revealing two items.

One was a divinity card familiar to Han Wu, worth 1.5 billion divine power.

The other was an egg exuding black demonic energy, still pulsating as if alive.

"No need for me to introduce the divinity card. Let me focus on explaining this demonic egg," Tian Wen said patiently. "This is a war trophy I obtained while campaigning in the Outer Realm, an egg personally laid by the Celestial Demon Insect King, refined into a stillborn using a special secret method."

"Though a stillborn, it can produce ten liters of demonic essence daily. Lower-level insectoids can consume the demonic essence to transform into the lowest-level Celestial Demon Insects."

"When you joined the class, I mentioned helping you achieve a life transition for your core followers. This is the path I control for the locusts' life transition."

After listening to Tian Wen's introduction, Han Wu's gaze toward the demonic egg became fervent.

The main reason he wasn't favored by the school's teachers was that his core followers, the locusts, were considered too worthless.

If he could grasp a path for life transition, transforming locusts into Celestial Demon Insects, the potential of his followers, while not comparable to Qin Shuang's naturally elite lifeform, the Thunder Sparrow, could at least match ordinary lifeforms like Goblins and Dwarves.

"You can choose one of these two, as my way of sharing the winnings with you," Tian Wen said.

Han Wu didn't hesitate and chose the demonic egg.

He had to seize the life transition path for his core followers, the locusts.

Seeing Han Wu choose the demonic egg, Tian Wen nodded in satisfaction and added, "Celestial Demon Insects have a high affinity with toxic attributes. You can load the level 1 sacred relic, the Toxic Mist Orb, into the core, and the results will surely satisfy you."

Han Wu's eyes lit up: "Thank you, teacher. I will not disappoint your expectations."

Tian Wen gave Han Wu an approving look and was about to end the call.

But Han Wu suddenly stopped him and continued to ask, "Teacher, please wait. I want to ask if you have any channels for providing large quantities of meat? It doesn't matter if the quality is a bit lower. The meat provided in the mall is just too expensive."

Tian Wen was puzzled, then quickly understood.

During the elimination assessment in the unified exam, Han Wu had commanded locusts to devour Flesh and Blood Golems.

"If you want to use meat to feed the locusts, I advise against buying meat from the mall; the cost is too high, and the returns are low," Tian Wen advised. "Recently, the principal is conquering an Abyssal Plane, which will surely yield a large number of Flesh and Blood Golem corpses. I can inquire for you."

"Thank you very much, teacher." Han Wu expressed his gratitude.

Han Wu had no other choice.

The effect of the level 2 sacred relic, the Law of Gluttony, was too powerful.

Under its influence, the locusts in the Divine Realm became gluttons, consuming food rapidly.

With their numbers surging, the output from the Divine Realm alone couldn't satisfy the locusts' appetites.

Finding a food supply channel quickly was the best strategy.

Tian Wen nodded and then left.

Han Wu hurriedly found a place to settle the demonic egg.

The placed demonic egg soon produced its first drop of demonic essence.

Han Wu caught a locust and fed it the demonic essence, causing demonic energy to rise from the locust.

The demonic energy quickly formed a cocoon, enveloping the locust entirely.

Han Wu waited by the cocoon for two days before seeing it crack open.

A creature, somewhat resembling a locust, ten centimeters long, with sharper mandibles and a five-centimeter horn on its head, appeared before him.

Checking the information.

Core Followers: Celestial Demon Insect.

Follower Level: Ordinary Creature.

Follower Talent: Brutality.

Faith Level: Fanatic.

Faith Power: 1/day.

Life Cycle: 200 days (30 days larval stage, 150 days adult stage, 20 days aging stage).

Though still an ordinary creature, its strength was a hundred times that of a locust.

This was evident from the faith power it provided.

Han Wu also noticed that the information for the Celestial Demon Insect lacked reproduction details.

This meant that Celestial Demon Insects transformed from locusts couldn't reproduce.

Each Celestial Demon Insect had to be transformed using demonic essence.

One drop of demonic essence could transform one locust; 1 milliliter contained 20 drops of demonic essence, and 10 liters equaled 200,000 drops.

If all went smoothly, Han Wu could obtain 200,000 Celestial Demon Insects daily.

Accumulating over time, he could amass a formidable force.

Moreover, the newly born Celestial Demon Insects were also affected by the sacred relic, the Law of Gluttony, and began voraciously consuming food as soon as they were born.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

After consuming a thousand times their body energy, the Celestial Demon Insects grew ten times larger, advancing to elite lifeforms.

Han Wu also tried loading the level 1 sacred relic, the Toxic Mist Orb, into the Divine Core.

Instantly, among the vast number of locusts, one in a thousand was affected, mutating into ordinary lifeforms, the Toxic Mist Locusts, capable of releasing small amounts of toxic mist, though not very effective.

However, the newly born Celestial Demon Insects, influenced by the Toxic Mist Orb, had over ninety percent mutate into elite lifeforms, the Toxic Mist Celestial Demon Insects, with greatly enhanced strength.

Han Wu couldn't help but marvel, Tian Wen was indeed right; Celestial Demon Insects and toxic attributes were indeed quite compatible.
