"Blood River"

Looking at the evil figure before him, identical to himself.

With a thought from Lian Luo, his duplicate's appearance began to change, eventually becoming a completely unfamiliar face.

He could not help but smile. "With a different appearance and an entirely different divine body aura, as long as I do not expose myself, even if a Universe Master controls a region of spacetime, they will not be able to link us together!"

In the Swallowed Starry Sky universe, no matter how many duplicates the powerful possessed, their souls were unique. Naturally, every duplicate carried the same aura.

Take the original Luo Feng, for example. His Golden Horned Beast duplicate and human duplicate looked vastly different, yet their souls were exactly the same. In the early stages, when fighting Immortals and Venerables, he used treasures to confuse his aura, and those Immortals and Venerables could not discover that his human duplicate and Golden Horned Beast duplicate were actually the same person.

But when facing beings like Universe Masters, who controlled an entire region of spacetime, such petty tricks could not fool them at all!

Lord of Sky Wolf had easily uncovered Luo Feng's identity and true strength!

Therefore, duplicates could not serve as alternate identities. At least before a Universe Master, there was no way to deceive them!

But Lian Luo's duplicate was different. Even its soul had changed. Since the soul had changed, the divine body aura was naturally different as well.

Under such circumstances, let alone a Universe Master, even the strongest being in the universe could forget about exposing his little alternate identity!

"Moreover, my main body and duplicate can switch with each other!" As he slowly studied the duplicate secret technique, Lian Luo soon discovered another interesting feature.

That was, the roles of his main body and duplicate were not fixed; they could be changed at will. Sage Lian Luo could be the main body while Evil Lian Luo was the duplicate, or it could be the other way around!

"Let's try switching!"

Sage Lian Luo and Evil Lian Luo touched palms!

Immortal Divine Power began flowing between them. Sage Lian Luo's aura gradually weakened, while Evil Lian Luo's aura continued to rise...

When the divine power stopped flowing, Sage Lian Luo had become the duplicate, his Life Gene Level dropping to ten times. Evil Lian Luo, meanwhile, had become the main body, his Life Gene Level rising to one hundred times!

The two Lian Luos looked at each other. Sage Lian Luo suddenly smiled. "Not bad, not bad! I, Lian Luo, have never been fond of fighting. From now on, you can handle matters of battle and slaughter!"

Evil Lian Luo also smiled, but his smile was chilling. "I'm very fired up right now! I can barely wait for the slaughter!"

The spacecraft flew quietly through the Dark Universe. A trace of Sage Lian Luo's consciousness entered the Origin Land, studying the profundities of the Space Law. Before long, a smile appeared on his face. "Without all those negative emotions interfering, comprehending laws in this sage state is indeed much faster than before!"

While Sage Lian Luo comprehended laws, Evil Lian Luo sorted through the mechanical race person's spoils within a World Ring.

"What a pity. The Fire God Source Crystal's explosion destroyed most of the spoils!" Evil Lian Luo frowned slightly. "The remaining spoils, together with the seven base spacecraft and mechanical puppets I had previously put into World Rings, are worth roughly twenty million Chaos Units in total!"

"Actually, the most valuable items on that mechanical race person were probably the Fire God Source Crystal, comparable to the self-destruction of a Marquis-level peak Immortal, and that detector even more advanced than the one I use!" Evil Lian Luo thought to himself. "As expected of a mechanical race person. His wealth alone could rival that of a Marquis-level peak Immortal from another race!"

"If I include the gains from the other Immortals earlier, the total spoils should sell for around thirty million Chaos Units! And there are also military merits. Killing that mechanical race person can be exchanged for ten thousand points!"

"My total wealth now consists of 553,000 internal company points and nearly thirty million worth of spoils!"

After sorting through the spoils, Evil Lian Luo also began cultivating. However, as the embodiment of Lian Luo's negative emotions, he did not study laws. Instead, he began researching secret techniques.

Since he was going to maintain an alternate identity, the two Lian Luos could not use the same secret techniques in the future.

He intended to create another set of secret techniques, named Blood River!

Within Lian Luo's temple on Thunder Island in the Virtual Universe.

After the internal staff of the Virtual Universe Company finished inventorying all the spoils, they respectfully said, "Lord Blood-Robed Marquis, according to the Virtual Universe's calculations, your spoils have a total value of 30.27 million Chaos Units. Are you willing to sell these spoils?"

"30.27 million Chaos Units?" Lian Luo nodded. This figure was about the same as his estimate. If he found merchants to sell them himself, he could probably get another one or two million Chaos Units. After all, the Virtual Universe Company needed to make money as well, so its purchase price would naturally be lower to leave room for profit.

But that would be too troublesome. He had no interest in running around over such a small amount of wealth.

"That price will do! Send someone to Weapon Base 076 on the Ninth Battlefield to collect the spoils!" Lian Luo said with a smile.

"Understood, Lord Blood-Robed Marquis. Your points have already been credited. Please check them!" the staff member said respectfully. "I will not disturb you any further, my lord!"

A gentle smile rested on Lian Luo's face. "Go on!"

"I now have a total of 30.82 million points. Time to make some purchases!" Lian Luo opened the Virtual Universe Company's internal network and began spending lavishly.

"My strength has already reached King Level. The enemies I face in future battles will likely be King Level as well, but the Blood Shadow Sword I currently use only contains some G-class metal. It simply cannot withstand battles and slaughter between King Levels!" Lian Luo thought to himself. "I need to buy a weapon forged from G-class metal!"

All G-class weapons were custom-made. Through the company's internal channels, Lian Luo quickly placed an order.

Customizing a G-class saber cost twelve million points!

Next, Lian Luo checked the prices of detectors. To his helplessness, those high-end detectors started at hundreds of millions of points. He simply could not afford one.

He shook his head. "If I cannot afford it, then forget it. I'll use all my remaining points to purchase treasures that restore my divine body!"

"Purple Horseshoe Flower, Flowing Jade Liquid..."

After those large purchases, his points were wiped out in the blink of an eye.

By then, his spacecraft had finally returned to the base. Guided by the base's tractor signal, it slowly flew into the War Base.

Under the guidance of the base personnel, Lian Luo once more returned to the rest area designated for Marquis Immortals.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Lian Luo smiled warmly. A treasure worth several dozen Chaos Units floated before the staff member. "This is your reward!"

The staff member hurriedly said in delight, "Thank you, my lord!"

At the same time, he secretly thought, This lord's title is Blood-Robed Marquis. I thought he would be bloodthirsty, but I never expected him to be so kind!

The current Lian Luo had only "True Goodness Beauty" left within him. He truly was a good old fellow.
