I am the Clone of a Death Row Inmate

They chose a Public Star Realm ruled by a Dominator Race because such realms were renowned, highly credible, and relatively secure.

Although the Bloodline Divine Artifact was valuable, it was merely a device for tracking the remnants of the Dou Race. It wasn’t the only one of its kind, so it wasn’t valuable enough to tempt a Dominator Race into stealing it and risking the reputation of their Public Star Realm.

Of course, they couldn’t completely entrust their safety to others. Su Ze naturally had to prepare a means of escape as well.

’Our journey happens to take us to the Spirit Race’s Public Star Realm anyway. We can auction the Bloodline Divine Artifact there. We can discuss the specific details and iron out the plan along the way.’

Of the two Tier 9 Bloodline Divine Artifacts, the Metalization Belt was a material that could upgrade his skills. Therefore, Su Ze didn’t intend to auction it; he planned to only sell the Dimension Ring.

Auctioning only one would make it a rare commodity, which could drive the final price slightly higher while also reducing the risk.

As for the Metalization Belt, he planned to absorb it before the auction. Otherwise, he might be tracked by others who possessed Bloodline Divine Artifacts.

After leaving the Unclaimed Territory surrounding Zexing, Su Ze and his group entered the territory of the Illusion Race, a first-rate race.

Thousand Illusion Star, the Public Planet closest to Zexing, was under the Illusion Race’s jurisdiction, but it was located in a fringe area of their territory.

A few days later, after traveling at high speed in the Magic Cube, they were rapidly approaching Mengxing, the Illusion Race’s largest Public Planet.

This was the first stop on their journey.

First-rate races often occupied over a hundred Star Realms, but only a dozen or so were open to outsiders.

The race’s Public Planets were usually concentrated within these open Star Realms.

Mengxing was the Illusion Race’s largest Public Planet, countless times larger than Thousand Illusion Star, with a volume of traffic that was simply incomparable.

Naturally, the inspections for visiting spaceships were also much stricter. All personnel aboard any ship landing on Mengxing had to disembark for an inspection.

However, the inspection focused primarily on power levels, and secondarily on race.

As for identity, it was impossible to verify. There were too many races in the universe, with populations so vast they couldn’t even be tallied. It was impossible to run a detailed background check on every individual. If security were that strict, Mengxing would have no business to speak of.

This time, Su Ze and his group didn’t disguise themselves as the Nian Race. The Nian Race primarily operated around the Witch Race’s territory, so their appearance here would be unusual.

Disguising themselves as the Dou Race would be even more conspicuous.

So, they all disguised themselves as the most common race: the Bag Race.

The Bag Race had an enormous population and could be seen everywhere. No one paid them any mind, and most people couldn’t even be bothered to prey on powerful members of the Bag Race.

The returns were simply too low; the Bag Race’s Origin Gene contained only their own genetic material, as they had never conquered any other race.

Besides, anyone with even a modicum of strength had already preyed on plenty of powerful Bag Race members.

Thus, aside from earning some contempt, disguising themselves as the Bag Race was quite safe.

Before docking at Mengxing, Su Ze’s group deliberately switched to a Moon God-level Spaceship. The Magic Cube, being a Sun God-level Spaceship, was too conspicuous. Although it was difficult to determine a ship’s class from its exterior, it was better to be cautious when visiting a ”big city.” After all, such places were full of powerful individuals.

After the spaceship landed, two members of the Illusion Race, their skin a kaleidoscope of colors and standing only about 1.4 meters tall, walked over.

Throughout the universe, the Illusion Race had earned the nickname ”Five-Colored Dwarves,” though no one would dare say it to their faces.

Seeing Su Ze’s group of over twenty ”Bag Race” members disembark, the two Illusion Race members—mere Star Gods themselves—made no effort to hide their disdain.

They held mirror-like Divine Artifacts that could apparently detect an individual’s evolutionary level. They gave Su Ze’s group a cursory scan, saw a few Moon Gods leading a pack of Star Gods, and impatiently pointed in one direction.

”Those entering Mengxing, get in line over there. Everyone else, stay on the ship. No wandering around!”

The inspection prioritized checking power levels. A group of weak individuals, even if they had malicious intent, wouldn’t pose much of a threat.

The second priority was race. They would pay closer attention if they encountered members of an enemy race.

The strongest in Su Ze’s group were only at the Moon God level, and they were disguised as the ”Bag Race,” one of the most common and weakest races in the universe. Naturally, there was nothing worth a second glance.

In the end, only four of them—Su Ze, the Pope, Mr. Ya, and Lin Hua—entered Mengxing. The others waited on the spaceship.

The four of them had a clear objective for entering Mengxing. First, Su Ze would use his Evolutionary Sense to find suitable upgrade materials for himself.

It had to be said, a major hub like this was on another level. Su Ze quickly sensed a suitable material nearby.

This time, it wasn’t just Su Ze looking for upgrade materials; the others traveling with him needed them as well. However, they couldn’t all disembark, so they had to let Su Ze’s party procure the items for them.

Su Ze’s group split into two. He and the Pope headed directly for the upgrade material he needed, while Mr. Ya and Lin Hua were tasked with selling their remaining spoils of war and purchasing upgrade materials for the others on the ship.

Following the pull of his Evolutionary Sense, Su Ze and the Pope soon arrived at a shop where he saw the suitable upgrade material.

It was the hoof of some unknown creature, displayed by itself in a transparent case that seemed to contain its own pocket of space.

”What is this?” Su Ze asked the Pope.

”It looks like the hoof of some kind of colossal beast,” the Pope replied. ”There are some enormous Stellar Giant Beasts in the universe, which are considered the apex of exotic beasts. They possess powerful innate talents. While they can’t compare to sapient lifeforms, they are far more powerful than ordinary exotic beasts.”
