Thus, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that if the sixth type shadow devil king truly possessed the abilities of the first five types of shadow devils, its strength would definitely be extremely terrifying.
Its defense would be even more abnormal than Li Yunmu's, and its vitality would be more durable than his. Its battle prowess would be even greater than Li Yunmu's, which wasn't proficient in concealment and assassination.
Moreover, it would possess an innate true sight, so it wouldn't be able to hide from the existence of the shadow devil king.
But the shadow devil king, the sixth type of shadow devil, had a restriction, and that was that it could only form a single shadow. In other words, even if Li Yunmu had eleven shadows and could form two shadow devil kings, because of this restriction, he could only congeal one shadow at a time.
Moreover, in the future, even if the number of shadows accompanying him increased, he could only form one shadow.
Even so, Li Yunmu still felt that this new shadow skill was indeed excessively formidable. He couldn't deny that at this instant, Li Yunmu's heart was stirred.
He almost couldn't resist the urge to choose this new shadow skill without even looking at the other two options.
But in the end, he resisted the urge to make a decision and looked at the two new abilities which the system had provided after upgrading to the sixth level.
The second ability was also related to the shadows. It was the ability to bestow the shadows with the ability to reproduce.
When Li Yunmu saw the two words' reproduce ', he almost thought that his eyes were playing tricks on him.
But as a matter of fact, after looking at it again and again, he finally discovered that he wasn't mistaken. His eyes weren't playing tricks on him. Motherf * cker, the second ability was indeed the ability to bestow the shadows with the ability to reproduce.
Li Yunmu clenched his teeth and asked word by word, "System, are you sure that there isn't any problem with the evolution of the ability?"
This was clearly a huge blow to Li Yunmu's view of the world.
[Host doesn't need to make a fuss about nothing. Since the shadows can give birth to intelligence and thoughts, they are also a type of lifeform in the cosmos. Since they are lifeforms, they possess the ability to reproduce.
But their method of reproduction isn't like what host is imagining, that's all,] the system said calmly.
However, Li Yunmu was caught in a dilemma.
The development direction of this ability really scared him, and he was also stunned.
This was something he hadn't thought of before. He wasn't in a hurry to choose, but the system's explanation seemed to make sense.
Since it was life, there would be reproduction.
Obviously, according to the System, the reproduction method of the shadows was definitely not the same as that of humans. They did not produce the next generation through XXO, or they might even break the male and female combination method.
In short, it was unimaginable.
Because of that, Li Yunmu's mentality instantly changed.
Indeed, the previous Shadow Fiend King did give him the urge to get his hands on it immediately. However, the Shadow Fiend King was the most powerful, and it couldn't be more powerful than giving shadows the ability to reproduce.
It could be foreseen that if he continued to reproduce, the number of shadows Li Yunmu possessed would continue to increase.
Not to mention the current 11, based on the base number, in a few years, the Shadow Legion, Shadow Army, and Shadow Empire could all be realized.
But the prerequisite for this was that Li Yunmu had to be clear about one thing, and that was the reproduction method and efficiency of the shadows.
"I'm sorry. Before the host makes a decision, before the system officially evolves and evolves, the reproduction speed of the shadows is still unknown. However, what I can reveal is that the reproduction speed of the shadows is actually related to their own strength. The stronger they are, the stronger their foundation is, and the faster their reproduction speed will be. Conversely, the slower their reproduction speed will be!"
This time, the system didn't need Li Yunmu to ask and directly told him the answer.
"In other words, it is related to my strength?"
[Yes.]
The next instant, Li Yunmu sunk into silence.
"Then what is the growth period of the descendants of the shadows? Will they be loyal to me like the shadows? "
Finally, Li Yunmu asked the question he wanted to know the most. Growth period and loyalty, these were the two things he was most concerned about.
If either one of them was lacking, it would be useless.
"The growth cycle is completely dependent on how much experience the host gives to the shadow's offspring. As long as the host is willing to invest in it, you can make a newborn shadow grow into a complete body overnight. It will have the same combat power as a direct first-generation shadow. As for loyalty …"
They aren't innately loyal to you, but the thoughts of the first generation shadow will greatly influence them, and they will be inclined to be loyal to you in the future.]
The system gave Li Yunmu the answer he wanted the most without any hesitation. But this answer left him pleasantly surprised, and also filled with regret.
"There's only one flaw in an otherwise perfect situation …" At this moment, Li Yunmu's heart was broken.
The growth period depended on the experience points he fed to the shadows, which was undoubtedly an enormous assistance to him. Honestly speaking, he lacked everything and had nothing to worry about.
But the thing he didn't have to worry about the most was experience points!
Ever since descending to the Origin World, Li Yunmu's experience points hadn't stopped increasing because of the large amount of resources he had obtained from hacking for twenty-four hours in the Deep Sea.
Not to mention anything else, the requirement to congeal the twelfth shadow was forty million experience points, and he had almost reached it.
Therefore, he didn't lack experience points. If he possessed the ability to reproduce, he wouldn't need to use experience points to congeal one shadow after another. Instead, he would just need to use the amount of experience points to congeal the shadows.
As long as they were able to reproduce a few batches, when the base number was increased, the reproduction speed would definitely increase exponentially.
Li Yunmu was clear about this point.
However, there was no eternal loyalty. This was the biggest taboo in his heart. If the Shadow Second Generation, Shadow Third Generation, and so on were not like Li Yun and the others, who would never betray him, then it was highly possible that he had spent so much effort to create a new, powerful, and terrifying race in this world.
A race that couldn't be controlled and possessed great potential.
Thinking about this, Li Yunmu couldn't help but become even more cautious.
"What about the third development direction?" After thinking about this, Li Yunmu put aside this ability for the time being and decided to look at the third development direction.
