But just as he was about to bind the Mind Flayer, a terrifying mental wave that made him look sideways suddenly surged out of the huge stone pillar, as if an ancient being that had been sleeping for a long time had awakened, an extremely powerful will awakened, and said in a deep voice:
"Honorable great being, you are now at the edge of the brain pool of the Mind Flayer Kingdom. Your actions have posed a huge threat to many Mind Flayer larvae."
The voice was deep and powerful, and it had a direct effect on Lin Xiao's mind.
But the voice was deep and powerful, but the posture was very low, and there was a hint of pleading in the tone:
"Honorable great being, if you can leave the edge of the brain pool, you will gain the friendship of the Mind Flayer Kingdom. On behalf of the Mind Flayer Kingdom, I will give you a gift."
Although the mind flayer represents extreme evil and terror in the eyes of intelligent creatures, to the true God who is above the mundane world, it is no different from other small insects. They can all be crushed to death at will. Only true God can fight against true God.
There is no true god among the mind flayers. Although the combined power of all brain pools may be able to fight against a true god, it is just a fight.
Lin Xiao had no plans to go deep into the Mind Flayer Kingdom for the time being, and of course he had no intention of robbing directly. He just calmly stated his needs:
"I need twenty Mind Flayers and twenty Illithids."
The brain pool fell silent.
He was not in a hurry and looked at the huge stone pillar curiously.
Inside this stone pillar, there should be a hollow space where a large number of mind flayers and illithids live. Whenever a mind flayer or illithid dies, its soul will enter the brain pool and become a part of it.
Each brain pool is formed by the fusion of a large number of mind flayer souls, and contains extremely terrifying mental power. Even if a legendary strong man dares to enter the brain pool of a mind flayer, there is a chance that he will be forcibly controlled by its powerful mental power.
He didn't think that the mind flayers would reject his proposal. Only twenty mind flayers and twenty lichens could satisfy a true god. He believed that anyone with a little bit of intelligence would know what to choose.
After all, if they refuse to anger a true god, the power of the Brain Pool located in a remote area of the Mind Flayer Kingdom will not be able to stop a true god. At that time, it will not only be these tribesmen who will be lost, but the entire Brain Pool will be lost.
The Mind Flayer leader only thought for a moment before agreeing to Lin Xiao's proposal. Soon a crack appeared in the stone pillar, and twenty Mind Flayers and twenty Lich Kings walked out of it.
These mind flayers are weaker than the ones seen before. Although there is no comparison with the mind flayers, they are probably the weakest among their kind. Lin Xiao looked at these experimental subjects with interest, and caught a mind flayer in front of the brain pool. He violently blasted his will into the mind of this mind flayer, preparing to forcibly search the mind flayer's memory.
"Huh?"
As soon as his will entered the memory of this mind flayer, he suddenly discovered that this mind flayer was actually believing in a certain existence, and there were many prayers and memories of faith in his mind. He hesitated for a moment, and tried to contact the unknown existence with curiosity. The next second, his face changed slightly, and he waved his hand, picked up the remaining mind flayers and mind suckers, and turned away.
As he turned around, an inexplicable aura rose from the brain pool behind him. More than a dozen thick transparent tentacles stretched out from the huge stone pillar, each with a huge eyeball on the top. At the same time, beams of light of different colors shot out and blasted into the void.
"I'll remember you."
Feeling the breath and arrogant roar of the true god coming from behind him, as well as the resistance of the captured mind flayer and body sucker, Lin Xiao's face looked a little ugly.
He never thought that there would be a true God in the Heart Flayer Kingdom, let alone that this true God was the son of a foreign god who had already been deified in this world.
"What the hell!"
He passed the message to his real body through the Magic Cube of Creation without hesitation.
Inside the outpost outside the world, Lin Xiao's true body summoned Lin Hong and Lin Bao, two true god-level subordinates, and said to them:
"My avatar is in a bit of trouble right now. The two of you avatars should prepare to go to the Underdark. I will give you a coordinate, and you will follow my orders."
The two nodded without hesitation. At this time, Lin Hong asked:
"Do we need to prepare anything?"
Lin Xiao was silent for a moment and said,
"That is a son of the Zerg God Realm. He has already controlled a kingdom of Mind Flayers. If possible, you can bring a group of golems with you."
After a pause, he continued,
"I will authorize you to come with two Giant God Soldiers, twenty Diamond Golems, and ten Obsidian Golems."
It was beyond Lin Xiao's expectations to discover a hidden son of the Zerg God Realm in the Mind Flayer Kingdom, but he was not too surprised.
After all, this world has been targeted by no less than five divine civilizations and has long been eroded to the point of being riddled with holes. There are probably no less than a thousand true gods from the divine civilizations in this world's Pantheon.
It is also due to the competition among many divine civilizations. Many divine civilizations compete and destroy each other, constantly dragging the enemy down. Once the son of a foreign divine domain is clearly discovered, the sons of foreign divine domains nearby will tacitly drag him into the melee.
It's not so bad in the underdark, as there are not many conditions for becoming a god, but it's a tragic situation in the surface world.
Most of the sons of foreign gods were fighting for territory and seeking to become gods with the intelligent races. The chaos of the battle was beyond words, and the dogs' brains were about to be beaten out.
He could detect the son of the Zerg God Realm who was deified with the help of the Mind Flayer Kingdom, and the other party could also detect him. Now they had automatically entered into a hostile relationship, and it could be predicted that once either party was ready, they would immediately attack and kill the other.
Although there is a drow from the third layer of the Underdark in between, but...
well, now this Zerg's Son of God seems to not know where Lin Xiao's area of faith is. The form he showed before was human, and his believers cannot be inferred from his form. This is good news.
Well, it's just temporary good news, but the effect won't be that big.
The only thing to do now is to make the cavemen stronger as soon as possible.
Quickly returning to the caveman tribe, Lin Xiao plunged into the laboratory and began to study the mind flayers and the illithids.
This time, there was no need to waste time studying it slowly. He just threw the Mind Flayer and the Lich into the Cube of Creation and began to analyze them.
With the power of the Creation Cube and the laws of creation he now masters, it is easy to separate the two races. However, a problem arises here. The mind and soul of the Mind Flayer are too powerful, while the mind and soul of the Cryptid are too weak. If the two are combined, the powerful one will automatically cover the weak one, resulting in the birth of a new soul of a Mind Flayer instead of a Cryptid.
This is a problem that the Creation Cube cannot solve for the time being.
The solution is simple, but he is not strong enough now, and he has not yet become a god in this world, so there are some operations he cannot do.
That would involve forcibly changing the basic underlying rules of the Crystal Wall Universe. Anyone who is not a true god of this world would be discovered and expelled by the world's will as soon as he takes action. Even if he really becomes a true god, his strength after being deified would not be enough to support him in changing the basic underlying rules of the world.
In other words, there is a way to change, but he can't use it.
"Consecrate the gods, consecrate the gods, I must consecrate the gods as soon as possible!"
Fortunately, although direct changes are not possible, slight enhancements are still possible.
The magical power of the creation energy is used to protect the weak soul of the caveman, and a trace of the soul essence of the mind flayer is integrated into it, thereby making the soul of the caveman several times stronger. Compared with the previous caveman, it is actually still very weak.
But this is enough. The soul is strong enough to support a stronger body, so the third generation of cavemen came online.
This is also the last modulation at this stage. The next modulation will be after he is deified.
By then, the crypt dwellers will have obtained a large portion of the mind flayer's powerful soul and mental power, and Lin Xiao himself is also looking forward to creating a new race.
As a result of the third modulation, the average height of the new cave dwellers was about 1.34 meters, with occasional strong individuals over 1.5 meters tall. Although their souls and spirits were still extremely weak, they were much stronger than before. The power of faith provided by each cave dweller to Lin Xiao was about a quarter of that of a human being, which was a huge improvement. Combined with the huge number of cave dwellers, this power of faith was already considerable.
What followed was the expansion of power. The third generation of cavemen, whose average individual strength was stronger, easily conquered the surrounding caveman tribes.
To be precise, it was not called conquest. When they came to other indigenous cave dweller tribes to show the power they possessed, saying that only by believing in the great cave dwellers and the god of protection could they gain the power to protect themselves, other cave dwellers cheered and joined his faith group.
The extremely weak cave dwellers' desire for power and protection is unprecedentedly strong. The missionary road spreads faster than the strongest plague, and soon it spreads in all directions like sparks in a prairie.
In order to transform ordinary cryptmen in the wild into the latest third-generation cryptmen as quickly as possible, each missionary team will bring a group of strong cryptmen to follow. Whenever they arrive at a tribe, they will stay for a period of time and mate with the female cryptmen in the tribe to produce excellent offspring.
Don't worry about whether it's ethical or not. For the underground people whose entire tribe is in danger of destruction at any time, who would care about this?
Time passed in this rapid expansion. Although there would be drow raiding teams going to the second layer of the Underdark every six months, in the beginning the caveman tribes were no different from before and were all burned and killed.
But as time went by, new generations of cavemen were born, the genes of the entire race were constantly improved, and the individual strength became stronger and stronger, especially under the call of many foreign missionary teams. Whenever they arrived at a place, they would gather a large number of small tribes to establish large tribes and start building cities. Gradually, these large tribes began to have the power to resist the drow.
A tribe of third-generation cavemen numbering several thousand or tens of thousands, with the help of simple stone walls and stone tools, can already resist a small drow raiding party of about a hundred people, and can even kill some careless drow.
This situation continued to occur as the Cryptmen tribe became stronger and stronger, until
