Act Separately

In the Purple Splendor Star River, there wasn't just the nine-colored heavy water.

Besides the front and back directions, islands of varying sizes floated on the surface, above, below, left, and right of the Star River. At the same time, within the Star River, there were also special stars and debris scattered like chess pieces.

The environment was so complex and intricate, it could be called the most challenging in the Ninth Battlefield!

Before the Outer Domain Battlefield was opened, tens of thousands of ordinary and weak races lived in this Star River, including some Universe Venerables.

But later, the Four Great Peak Races chose this Cosmic Secret Realm as their battlefield. Back then, when the Outer Domain Battlefield was opened, the experts of the Four Great Peak Races swept through numerous regions. The original inhabitants of the Cosmic Secret Realm naturally fled in panic, not daring to resist the Four Great Peak Races. Because there was no time, only some managed to escape, while many more were slaughtered.

This Purple Splendor Star River was no exception. Although the internal environment of the Star River was complex, and no one knew how much space or how many worlds it contained.

But a large group of Universe Venerables joined forces, unleashing soul attacks that swept through the entire Purple Splendor Star River. All life within the Star River... was annihilated. Below the Venerable level, even King experts died instantly.

The treasures they possessed were of no interest to the Venerables who opened the battlefield, so they were all left in this Star River.

And whether it was detectors or Immortal Divine Power, under the influence of the nine-colored heavy water, the detectable range was very limited. Coupled with the overly complex environment inside the Star River and the constant flow of the river water, its position changed all the time.

The result was that after billions of years, Immortals would occasionally discover treasures within the Star River, becoming rich overnight!

Because of this, a large number of Immortal Gods were attracted to this boundless Star River, engaging in battles, explorations, and treasure hunts...

Of course, after billions of years of fighting, there was no real danger left within the Star River itself.

On an island on the surface of the Purple Splendor Star River, a disc-shaped spaceship stopped.

In the main control room, Lian Luo and his evil clone, 'Jiu Li', faced each other. Lian Luo smiled, "Let's split up here and go our separate ways to kill Marquis Immortals!"

Jiu Li nodded, "Okay!"

In fact, at the beginning, Lian Luo had planned to let the Jiu Li clone fight alone in this Ninth Battlefield while he himself left the Outer Domain Battlefield and hid in the core area of the Human Territory.

But after careful consideration, he abandoned that idea and decided that his main body and his evil clone would hunt Marquis-level experts simultaneously to speed up the process of opening the blue blind box!

The reason was very simple: the Outer Domain Battlefield prohibited Venerables and above from entering. Kings were absolute powerhouses here. As long as he didn't act recklessly and head to battlefields where peak King-level experts gathered, there would basically be no danger.

For example, in the Purple Splendor Star River he chose, most of the Immortals fighting here were Marquis-level or Army Masters, with only a small number of Kings, and these Kings were basically at the early King-level.

The evil clone's strength was slightly stronger than an early King-level expert, and his main body's strength had barely reached the threshold of a King. There was no danger here at all!

Therefore, having the main body and clone act simultaneously to hunt Marquis Immortals was the best choice.

Of course, if he were to fight in the highest-level combat zone of the Ninth Battlefield in the future, or venture into the Cosmic Secret Realm, he definitely wouldn't do this.

In the Purple Splendor Star River, Immortal Army Masters led their troops to fight in the surface area of the Star River. Lone wanderer Marquis and King experts ventured deep into the Star River, fighting, exploring, and searching for treasures.

To complete the mission of killing Marquis-level experts, one had to enter the Star River's interior. Therefore, Lian Luo did not linger on the surface of the Star River and parted ways with his evil clone, Jiu Li.

The Jiu Li clone piloted an E9-class spaceship, while he piloted an F9-class spaceship. Both plunged into the nine-colored heavy water and flew in opposite directions.

"Rumble~~"

The black, streamlined spaceship easily pushed aside the extremely cold and heavy river water, maintaining high-speed progress.

"My detector is too bad!" In the main control room, Lian Luo shook his head helplessly.

The Jiu Li clone's strength was much greater than his main body's. Without needing to burn his divine body, he could kill early Marquis-level experts. So, the detector he brought from the Ganwu Universe Country was given to the Jiu Li clone to use. The detector he himself was using was just one he selected from the spoils of war from the Immortal Army Masters he had previously killed.

It was probably only worth a few thousand Chaos Units.

In space, it could cover a range of hundreds of millions of kilometers. But in this Star River, blocked by the river water, its coverage was reduced by a thousand times, only covering about 100,000 kilometers!

"When I have money, I'll have to get a better detector!"

Unknowingly, several years passed.

Just as Lian Luo's main body was lamenting the inadequacy of his detector, the Jiu Li clone had already found prey.

On the control panel in the main cabin of the disc-shaped spaceship, the detected image was displayed. A tall giant, nearly a thousand meters tall, whose entire body was composed of gray rock, was sitting cross-legged inside a star fragment, resting.

"This should be the 'Gray Tiger Race' that lives in extremely remote territories of the Universe. It belongs to 'rock-type lifeforms' and is at the early Marquis-level!"

A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Jiu Li clone's eyes, "It's on the Mechanical Race's side! I can kill it!"

In fact, before this, he had already discovered a Marquis-level Immortal. However, this Marquis-level Immortal was an ally of the Human Race. Killing him would be treason, and he would be hunted by the Merit System. The Jiu Li clone could only let the opponent go reluctantly!

"Whoosh!"

The Jiu Li clone's detector was much more advanced than this Gray Tiger Race Marquis-level expert. Even when he approached the star fragment where the opponent was hiding, the opponent still hadn't discovered his presence.

"Die!" The Jiu Li clone gripped the Tiger Soul with both hands and swung it fiercely!

"Rumble~~"

A saber light, like a blood-colored long river, instantly parted the river water and struck the star fragment where the Gray Tiger Race Marquis-level expert was hiding. Where the saber light passed, a large rift in the universe's space appeared! The star fragment, which even a World Lord could not destroy with a full-power strike, instantly turned to dust under the Jiu Li clone's saber.

"Who?" Only at this moment did the Gray Tiger Race Marquis-level expert realize he was being attacked. He was shocked and furious, and a pair of giant hammers appeared in his hands. These hammers were like black holes, devouring all the light around them.

The Gray Tiger Race Marquis-level expert immediately saw Jiu Li clone standing in the river like a demon god, and the blood-red light slashing towards him. He let out a roar, "Human!"

The next second, the pair of giant hammers suddenly changed. What was originally a black hole that devoured all light now became a sun emitting boundless light.

Wielding the twin hammers like a blooming sun, they completely stirred up the river water, forming monstrous waves that directly shattered the surrounding universe's space.

Before a Marquis Immortal, both this nine-colored heavy water and the universe space were simply too fragile. And then... those twin hammers swept through countless rivers of water and space fragments, forcefully smashing towards the blood-river-like blade light!

"Bang!"

The twin hammers and the blade light collided!

Space fragments vibrated and distorted, and a powerful shockwave instantly spread for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, causing the already boiling river water to ripple as if a giant was stirring it.

And the result of the collision—

"How is this possible..." The Gray Tiger Race Marquis Immortal was sent flying backward, shock and disbelief in his eyes. "My divine body instantly lost 2%!"

"This Human is a King-level!!!"
