I am the Clone of a Death Row Inmate

But Su Ze remembered the Mother Tree once saying that she wasn’t a Spiritual Plant, but rather a wondrous object.

And while the Mother Tree in her complete form might indeed reach a divine level, her current form was incomplete.

Even though Su Ze had recovered the alien spaceship for her, the Mother Tree remained incomplete.

The Mother Tree continued, ”A single drop of Evolutionary Liquid isn’t worth much on its own, but it’s in extremely high demand throughout the cosmos. Even divine-level experts have use for it, so to a certain extent, it can function as a ’universal currency’.”

”It can be used as money?” The thought reminded Su Ze of the Spirit Stones in cultivation novels, which could be used as currency because of their inherent value.

”Correct. The effects of Evolutionary Liquid are many and varied; it’s practically an all-purpose elixir. It can strengthen the body, fortify the soul, enhance Spiritual Power, increase one’s affinity for evolutionary power, heal injuries... In short, it can elevate the life level of any being at or below the divine level.

”Of course, this enhancement becomes less pronounced the higher a being’s evolutionary level. However, with a large enough quantity, even a Sun God expert can gain a considerable boost from Evolutionary Liquid.”

Su Ze recalled his own experiences with the liquid. He had taken two drops of it in total.

The first drop was used to upgrade his ”Knowledge is Power” skill, so all its energy went into the upgrade, and Su Ze’s body didn’t absorb any of it.

The second drop did provide a comprehensive enhancement. Though the improvements were minor, they were truly across the board.

It enhanced not only common attributes like strength, speed, and Spiritual Power, but also his affinity for evolutionary power, his speed at digesting Evolutionary Material, and more.

’Back then, I was only in the twice-evolved Cocoon Stage, and the effects were already that small. Now that I’m a Supreme, I’m afraid they’d be even more minuscule...’ Su Ze understood that, just as the Mother Tree had said, if he wanted to gain a significant boost from the Evolutionary Liquid, quantity was the only way.

For someone like him, absorbing this entire large bottle of Evolutionary Liquid might grant some noticeable improvement.

A divine-level expert would require even more—perhaps a massive amount of Evolutionary Liquid, which would naturally be astonishingly valuable, since the substance was priced by the drop.

Even if Su Ze absorbed this entire bottle of Evolutionary Liquid, the increase in his power would be limited.

In any case, it was impossible to complete an evolution just by absorbing Evolutionary Liquid.

For now, Su Ze didn’t particularly need such a slight boost. Therefore, he had no intention of absorbing all the Evolutionary Liquid, deciding instead to save it for a rainy day.

If he ever got the chance to travel the Cosmic Starry Sky, this universal currency would certainly come in handy.

Of course, if Mr. Ya needed some, Su Ze would share it with him. After all, they had acquired it together. Without Mr. Ya’s ”Void” skill, Su Ze would never have been able to get the treasures from the Central Treasure Vault.

Having clarified the functions of the device seed and the Evolutionary Liquid, all that was left were large quantities of materials and evolutionary medicines.

However, as the Mother Tree herself had admitted, she wasn’t all-knowing. She could only identify most of the materials and medicines, leaving a small portion whose uses she didn’t know.

These materials were all Tier 6 or Tier 7 and came from alien creatures. Even if Su Ze and Mr. Ya knew their purpose, it would be difficult to make full use of them given Blue Star’s current resources and evolutionary level.

So, for now, they could only store the materials away for potential future use.

As for the remaining natural medicines, Su Ze and Mr. Ya evenly divided the ones they could identify—digestive aids, Healing Medicines, poisons, and so on.

Su Ze was most interested in the digestive aids. To his delight, they had acquired several high-tier alien digestive medicines, many of which were more effective than the pure green Heart-shaped Fruit.

This would definitely save him a great deal of time digesting Evolutionary Material in the future.

With that, the two of them had finished sorting through the treasures they’d obtained from the vault for the time being.

Considering Liou Wenxin still hadn’t finished building the base station, Su Ze decided not to return to Dongli immediately. Instead, he planned to train at the Miracle Oasis for a few days.

By the next day, however, there was a new development regarding the Evolution Divine Teachings.

Bowing to public pressure, the Alien Party was forced to compromise. They announced sanctions against the Evolution Divine Teachings, ordering the arrest of its clergy throughout the Lin Hua Continent and strictly forbidding them from proselytizing further.

Of course, the so-called arrests were all bark and no bite. In the end, they would probably only catch a few small fry.

Most of the clergy from the Evolution Divine Teachings would simply be escorted out of the country under the guise of ”expulsion.”

Regardless, the Evolution Divine Teachings would no longer be seen in the Lin Hua Continent.

”Boss, I’m going to lie in wait at the Luofan Country border,” Mr. Ya said after seeing the news.

He planned to go to the Luofan border to ambush members of the Evolution Divine Teachings.

Mr. Ya had always despised the Evolution Divine Teachings. This was likely related to his upbringing in Luofan Country, as well as the fact that his deceased parents had been foolish believers.

While his parents were still alive, they had taken their entire life savings to a priest from the Evolution Divine Teachings to ask for help with his situation. That priest was the most powerful ”important person” they had access to.

In the end, they donated their life savings to the Evolution Divine Teachings, but it had no effect whatsoever.

Su Ze didn’t try to talk him out of it, simply asking, ”Want me to come with you?”

”No need. You have your own things to attend to, Boss. Go on ahead.”
