I am the Clone of a Death Row Inmate

”It’s a Sword Seed, but that’s the name my master gave it because he liked using swords as weapons. You can give it another name if you wish,” the Mother Tree said.

”Can you tell me what this Extraordinary Item does?” Su Ze asked curiously.

The Mother Tree seemed to drift into memory. After a moment of silence, she slowly explained, ”We call it an Extraordinary Item, but it’s actually a living Spirit Plant Seed. It was born from a whim of my master’s; he wanted to cultivate a weapon perfectly suited to him. This Extraordinary Item came into being only after a long process of cultivation and modification.

”However, the item’s initial level was lower than my master expected. He hesitated over whether to continue spending a great deal of time, energy, and resources to nurture the Sword Seed. In the end, he chose to seal it away in the treasury for the time being. Unexpectedly, an accident occurred before he could make a final decision.

”As for the Sword Seed’s function, you’ll naturally understand once you inject a sliver of Evolutionary Force into it.”

Hearing this, Su Ze poured the Sword Seed, which looked like a melon seed, into his palm and injected a sliver of Evolutionary Force into it.

The Sword Seed acted just like a Spirit Plant Seed, absorbing Su Ze’s Evolutionary Force as nutrients for its growth.

After absorbing Su Ze’s Evolutionary Force, it immediately began to sprout, extending a tiny, delicate shoot.

At the same time, some kind of connection was immediately established between Su Ze and the Sword Seed.

The Sword Seed still craved more energy. Moreover, it seemed to be awaiting Su Ze’s command, ready to grow according to his instructions.

Su Ze thought for a moment, then increased the infusion of Evolutionary Force while picturing Guan Yu’s Cyan Dragon Crescent Blade in his mind.

In an instant, the Sword Seed, having absorbed a large amount of Evolutionary Force, began to grow wildly. The shoot branched out, sending out numerous vines that wove and coiled together.

The originally verdant and delicate shoot instantly transformed into tough, thick, and durable old vines.

In just the blink of an eye, a Cyan Dragon Crescent Blade woven from vines appeared in Su Ze’s hand!

The hilt was solid yet light, and its thickness was just right, making it comfortable to wield.

The blade was also wooden, carved from a single, solid piece of wood. However, it was sharp and hard. Su Ze flicked it with his finger and felt it was sturdier than his Tier 4 Crystal Sword.

The key was that the blade could also change its shape and size according to Su Ze’s will.

With a single thought from Su Ze, the vines making up the ”Cyan Dragon Crescent Blade” shifted and, in a flash, transformed into a ”Fangtian Halberd.” Su Ze gave it a couple of swings, then changed it into the form of the ”Ruyi Golden Cudgel.”

The Sword Seed could transform into the shape of any weapon.

The Mother Tree’s master had named it ”Sword Seed” simply because he favored swords.

The only drawback was that no matter what weapon it became, it was still made of wood and its color was rather plain, making it look a little less cool.

”’Sword Seed’ is such an awful name. Since it can change into all sorts of miscellaneous weapons, why not just rename it... the ’Bastard Seed’!”

”Boss, are you sure ’Bastard Seed’ sounds better than ’Sword Seed’?” Mr. Ya asked, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

”Then let’s call it the ’Weapon Seed’.”

Although Mr. Ya didn’t think ”Weapon Seed” was a great name either, it was at least much better than ”Sword Seed” or ”Bastard Seed.” He could only force himself to praise it, ”That’s a great name! Boss, you’re a genius at naming things!”

And just like that, Su Ze had obtained a Tier 6 weapon: the Weapon Seed!

Su Ze cut off the supply of Evolutionary Force to the Weapon Seed. The ”Golden Cudgel” in his hand immediately shrank, and all the vines rapidly retracted, shrinking back into his palm in the blink of an eye, once again becoming a melon seed.

This was how the Extraordinary Item worked. It required a continuous supply of Evolutionary Force during use. Once the ”supply was cut,” it would immediately revert to its seed form.

For Su Ze, regardless of its power, two advantages were enough for the Weapon Seed to completely outclass his Crystal Sword.

The first, of course, was the Weapon Seed’s ever-changing form, its ability to become any weapon.

The second was that the weapon it became could grow infinitely large. As long as enough Evolutionary Force was supplied, it could grow to hundreds or even thousands of meters, which was perfect for Su Ze after he ”expanded.”

Although the Crystal Sword could also grow larger, it could only reach four or five meters long at most. That was no longer enough for the giant Su Ze, who could now casually expand to one or two hundred meters tall.

Obtaining this suitable Tier 6 Extraordinary Item was a pleasant surprise. Su Ze instantly felt much more at ease. Although he hadn’t found a Divine-level Extraordinary Item, a Tier 6 one wasn’t bad at all. On Blue Star, at least, it was already top-tier.

Besides, from what the Mother Tree had said, the Weapon Seed still had room to grow.

Seeing Su Ze pause his examination of the Weapon Seed, the Mother Tree’s voice sounded in his mind, ”As a living Spiritual Plant, this Extraordinary Item has a great deal of room for growth. It can absorb external energy to grow, but the amount of energy it requires is immense.

”In the future, every time you use it, a portion of the consumed energy will be absorbed by it. When you use it to kill enemies, it will also draw a portion of energy from the slain foes for its own growth.”

Su Ze nodded in understanding. ’It’s a growth-type Extraordinary Item. Great potential, but its growth is slow.’

’After all, it’s a weapon the Mother Tree’s master cultivated for himself. It definitely has the potential to reach the Divine level.’

Su Ze then picked up the large bottle of Evolutionary Liquid and asked the Mother Tree about its specific uses.

”Evolutionary Liquid can be considered a hard currency in the universe,” the Mother Tree replied. ”Only Divine-level Spiritual Plants can produce Evolutionary Liquid, and not even all of them can do it.”

Su Ze glanced at the pool of spring water at the base of the Mother Tree’s trunk... ’The Mother Tree can also produce Evolutionary Liquid. Doesn’t that mean she’s also a Divine-level Spiritual Plant?’
