I am the Clone of a Death Row Inmate

Su Ze had previously listed the three greatest potential threats to Blue Star after his departure.

They were the Pope, the Filth Earth Organization, and the Exotic Beasts.

Now, Su Ze had resolved the first two threats, but the third would have to be handled by the people of Blue Star themselves.

With Su Ze having killed a large number of powerful Nian Race members, the high-end combat power of the Exotic Beasts once again held the upper hand over humanity.

As long as Su Ze was around, he could keep them in check. But once he left, the Exotic Beasts were sure to strike back.

Therefore, the major settlements on Blue Star needed the strength to resist, or even overpower, the Exotic Beasts.

It wasn’t that Su Ze hadn’t considered leaving behind the Land Lock or the Storm Horn. With just one divine-grade artifact, they could still suppress the Exotic Beasts at the highest level of power, keeping the Beast Kings of the various regions from acting recklessly.

However, he considered that the Nian Race would inevitably return in the near future. If he left a divine-grade artifact behind, Chen Suifeng and the others wouldn’t be able to protect it, and it might even bring them disaster.

For now, Su Ze put the matter to the back of his mind and began his final preparations before his departure.

At this moment, he arrived once more at the external inheritance point in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, this time bringing several dozen people with him.

These were the people on his list of suspects—all of them had entered the Divine Dice and made it to the very end, meaning they could have been possessed by the Nian Race.

Su Ze couldn’t tell who was possessed, but the Inheritance Space could.

The Inheritance Space could detect not only bloodlines but even souls. Back then, when the Shepherd King had entered the internal inheritance, he was detected and attacked, causing his soul to be severely wounded.

Now, as the master of the Inheritance Space, Su Ze naturally had the authority to use its functions as he wished.

He sealed all of their senses and threw them inside one by one to have their souls scanned.

Any who were discovered to be members of the Nian Race were executed on the spot.

Those who were not were spared.

Again, Su Ze could only determine if they had been possessed by the Nian Race; he couldn’t tell if they were ”race traitors.”

However, as long as they weren’t Nian Race, they couldn’t use the Divine Dice to contact the Nian Race’s Mother Star. Besides, these people were from the Snowfield and Flame Emperor Continents, so Su Ze couldn’t be bothered to waste any more effort on them.

So, in the end, he released all the cleared experts from the two continents.

This included the two Legendary-rank experts from those continents. With them watching over things, the two continents would at least have some means of self-preservation.

Of course, after letting them go, Su Ze took the opportunity to do a bit of ”sightseeing” on the two continents.

He paid special attention to the national treasuries of both continents, taking a look at their exotic local products. He also happened to take a few things as souvenirs—after all, it was a testament to the wonderful friendship between the three continents.

The things he took were all upgrade and enhancement materials that he found appealing and suitable for his needs.

Before his seventh evolution, Su Ze needed to upgrade all of his skills to Tier 6, and he still had quite a few to go.

However, he had previously discussed this with the Shepherd King. Absorbing materials wasn’t the only way to upgrade his skills.

The purpose of upgrading his skills was to eliminate any weak points.

Each skill was a chain in his genetic code. He had to upgrade them all to Tier 6 so they wouldn’t hold him back from advancing toward his seventh evolution.

Besides upgrading, Su Ze could also choose to fuse his skills.

He could fuse all the skills that hadn’t yet reached Tier 6, thereby raising their level.

This would likely reduce his total number of skills, but their overall quality would improve.

However, upgrading by absorbing materials was, of course, the best method. It would maximize each skill’s potential and also raise the ceiling for future fusions.

That was why Su Ze was currently searching the entire world for suitable upgrade materials. Naturally, he wasn’t going to pass up the national treasuries of the Snowfield and Flame Emperor Continents.

Not only that, but the Pope’s entire lifetime collection and the Filth Earth Organization’s treasury were also his for the picking.

Then there was the Western Continent, the various nations of the Lin Hua Continent...

With a single command from Su Ze, the entire Blue Star moved to serve him. Such was his current status and influence.

...

Su Ze returned to the Dongli Kingdom and stayed for a few days.

He was waiting for the Pope to finish cleaning up his clones and for Chen Suifeng to complete his sixth evolution...

He himself used this time to absorb the materials gathered from all over Blue Star, strengthening his skills one by one.

He had to admit that Blue Star’s high-level resources were severely lacking in both quantity and variety.

Even with the combined power of the entire planet, the resources they managed to collect were not enough to upgrade all of Su Ze’s skills to Tier 6.

To upgrade a skill to Tier 6, one needed at least Tier 6 materials.

Aside from a small number that occurred naturally, most Tier 6 materials had to be harvested from Tier 6 Exotic Beasts or Spiritual Plants.

And since the number of Tier 6 Exotic Beast Spiritual Plants on Blue Star was limited, gathering all the necessary materials was by no means a short-term task.

’No wonder not a single evolver has ascended to godhood in a thousand years.’

Su Ze sighed. He finally understood why predecessors like Lin Hua’s Legend and Mr. Ke—who were undeniable geniuses—had been unable to ascend to godhood. They were simply limited by their environment on Blue Star.

What’s more, Su Ze had far more skills than anyone else, making it even more difficult for him to gather all the necessary upgrade materials on Blue Star.

Before this, he had a total of eight Tier 5 skills awaiting upgrades: Ant Power, Regeneration Body, Gravity Domain, Unyielding Will, Liquid Life, Strongest Punch, Impact Cannon, and Expansion.

After absorbing all the upgrade and enhancement materials gathered from across Blue Star, he had only managed to upgrade five of those skills: Ant Power, Regeneration Body, Unyielding Will, Strongest Punch, and Expansion.
