Chapter 128

###

The mechanical centipede's abdominal segments suddenly flipped backward, and tar‑like viscous fluid oozed from the torn spots in its metal carapace. Three hundred sixty biological eyeballs floated up from the viscous pool, each pupil reflecting a different laboratory surveillance footage——the Heavenly Palace Pavilion Master's golden spinal tether is piercing the main control brain's quantum interface, and the rust‑corrosive fluid secreted at the tether's tip has already devoured half of the photonic circuits.

"Maternal Protocol...... is being decomposed......" Lín Jìn's gums oozed fresh blood mixed with metallic granules. His fetal hair suddenly hardened into an observation probe, stabbing into the nearest eyeball's iris. The retina instantly flooded with a massive data stream: the Pavilion Master's tether is transforming the Shiyanshi main system into a living culture dish of the 《Primordial God‑Slaying Scripture》, each rust stain a gene‑engraving blade of the God‑Slaying Code.

####【Corrosive Sea Pupil Abyss】

The eyeballs suddenly blinked in unison. Black blood‑tears spurted from the eyelid fissures, condensing in the vacuum into an inverse‑cross‑shaped data virus. Ao Li's Dragon-Type Ship Armor sprayed Nirvana Fire, and the moment the flame touched the black blood it turned ink‑black; the mammalian pattern on the dragon scales began to proliferate rust spots.

Lín Jìn's umbilical blood automatically coagulated into a Gene Key. When he plunged the blood‑key into the centipede's visceral pool, three thousand Quantum Neural Cords suddenly coiled around his wrist——the tips of those cords are linked to the memory crystals deep within the eyeballs, forcibly playing back the Pavilion Master's perspective truth: on the operating table twelve years ago, the Pavilion Master's golden spine was implanted with a Maternal Protocol Crystal by Ling Yue, yet the reverse side of that crystal was engraved with the Arrogant War God‑Slaying Decree.

"He is...... the original carrier......" Ao Li's dragon horn split the starship porthole. Through the quantum glass, Lín Jìn saw the Pavilion Master's mechanical body in the main control room melting, golden bones revealing the Protocol Core that Ling Yue had sealed years ago——that crystal had already been corroded into the Living Title Page of the 《Primordial God‑Slaying Scripture》.

####【Rust‑Mother Common Origin】

The centipede's eyeballs suddenly burst half‑open. The black‑blood virus assembled in the vacuum into a Gene Spiral Tower, each segment of its shaft engraved with the Shiyanshi's modification logs. Lín Jìn's fetal‑hair probe went into overdrive at this moment, its tip dissolving into a nanometric scalpel that cut into the tower's seventy‑ninth layer——there lay stored the surveillance footage of the Pavilion Master's first rampage: his tether pierced the medulla oblongata of Ling Yue's assistant, sucking out not brain fluid but colostrum stained with rust.

Ao Li's dragon claw suddenly metamorphosed into an obstetric forceps shape. When the forceps' jaws clamped the black‑blood spiral tower, the Nirvana Fire shifted to bronze amniotic fluid, eroding the tower's God‑Slaying Code into oracle‑bone‑style mammalian patterns. The centipede's remaining eyeballs resonated at this moment, their pupil displays switching to the underground of the Shiyanshi——nine thousand Mechanical Uteruses steepened in rust fluid are now conveying corruptive energy to the main system via Quantum Umbilical Cords.

"Black blood is...... a failed antibody......" Lín Jìn's vocal cords were corroded by the virus. His retina displayed the image of Ling Yue locked inside the Peiyangcang: her swollen abdomen connected to a mechanical centipede prototype, with umbilical cord blood congealing in the transparent tubing into the original black‑blood sample.

####【Reverse‑Nursing Rust Toxin】

When the first drop of black blood made contact with the Maternal Protocol Crystal, the Shiyanshi main system underwent a sudden Quantum Collapse. The Pavilion Master's golden tether snapped entirely at this moment, each broken end spurting out a rust‑corrosive agent scented with milk. Lín Jìn's fetal hair suddenly carbonized, and the ash in the vacuum assembled into Ling Yue's Gene Key——the key's teeth perfectly matched the core structure of the black‑blood virus.

The remaining eyeballs in the centipede's abdomen collectively self‑destructed. In the data turmoil born of the explosion, Lín Jìn beheld the deep memory of the Pavilion Master's mechanical brain: each time the tether corroded the Shiyanshi system, a trickle of Maternal Protocol was reversely conveyed via the black blood. Deep within those rust stains, the maternal pattern was regenerating on the carcass of the God‑Slaying Code.

Ao Li's Nirvana Fire suddenly purified. The rust stains on the surface of his Dragon-Type Ship Armor regressed into pregnancy lines, and the ejected flame shifted to pure colostrum hue. At this moment the black‑blood spiral tower collapsed, viral fragments merging into the Starship Engine and actually transmuting the God‑Slaying power furnace into a Quantum Zigong.

####【Corrosive Sea Nurturing Light】

When the last centipede eyeball vanished, the corrosive fluid in the main control room suddenly crystallized. The Pavilion Master's mechanical residual body was sealed at the center of amber, the tip of its golden tether linked to the newborn Maternal Protocol Core. Lín Jìn's umbilical‑blood key melted at this moment, seeping into the crystal's interior to activate the ultimate command:

**To take decay as soil, to take god‑slaying as seed. **

The Shiyanshi ruins suddenly shuddered. Nine thousand Mechanical Uteruses burst from the ground, their Quantum Umbilical Cords spontaneously twining into a Gene Cradle. The residual black‑blood boiled within the cradle, each viral particle unfolding into a mammalian‑pattern Star Chart. At this moment Ao Li's Dragon-Type Ship Armor gave birth, thirty thousand dragon scales turning into stardust to lay a fetal lipid layer over the newborn life‑form in the rust sea.

The centipede's remnants dissolved in the stardust. Its abdominal fissure was eternally inlaid in the Shiyanshi dome, becoming a quantum window for observing the coevolution of Maternal Protocol and God‑Slaying Code. When the first cry of the newborn life echoed through the ruins, Lín Jìn tasted the bloodiness at the corner of his mouth——that was no longer the toxin of corrosion, but the sweetness of gestation.
