The Zerg's greatest ability lay in their capacity to continuously absorb superior genes and evolve. As the Zerg Overmind, Ye Luo naturally excelled even further in this regard. Since the Three-Legged Golden Crow had begun following Ye Luo, it had transformed into a tattoo and rarely left his body. Even when Ye Luo's body had been in the Hive and the Heart of the Zerg was being upgraded, the three Three-Legged Golden Crows had never left. Thus, a deep connection had formed between them. Every time Ye Luo advanced, part of his own genes would adjust, becoming more compatible with the Three-Legged Golden Crow.
When the Three-Legged Golden Crow evolved into the Li Fire Phoenix, Ye Luo's genes craved the Li Fire Phoenix's Li Fire power even more. Most Zerg specialized in close combat, with very few capable of energy attacks, leaving them desperately lacking in long-range firepower. If Ye Luo had not ordered the Hive not to devour the Li Fire Phoenix, it would likely have swallowed this evolved starry-sky behemoth and sliced it apart for research.
Of course, Ye Luo forbidding the Hive from harming the Li Fire Phoenix did not mean the genes within his body could not do something with it. Zerg genes were inherently aggressive; whenever they encountered an ability that could make up for their shortcomings, they yearned to absorb it. Since they could not directly devour the Li Fire Phoenix, they would slowly wear it down instead. The Li Fire Phoenix remained in tattoo form most of the time and was constantly in contact with Ye Luo, so Ye Luo's genes instinctively absorbed its energy, observing and imitating the Li Fire Phoenix's life characteristics and energy circulation...
Ye Luo had been completely unaware of all this, because it was merely genetic instinct. But
