Clone Successful (Please Keep Reading)

"Let's see if I can transplant them."

Seeing that the tree body had stopped collapsing, Zhang Dong breathed a sigh of relief and placed both the Sun Tree and Falling Star inside his internal world.

His internal world was incomparably vast, spanning hundreds of millions of kilometers. Although it had no air and its world order was chaotic, making reproduction impossible, that posed no problem for extraordinary lifeforms and above.

He then transformed into his Bitter Snow Vine true form and activated his innate secret technique: Transplantation.

Zhang Dong first tried transplanting the Sun Tree. One of the Bitter Snow Vine's tendrils detached, then wrapped itself around the roots of the already-dead Sun Tree.

The innate secret technique activated. The vine fused into the roots, extracting all kinds of information from within and beginning to replicate a Clone.

Throughout the process, Zhang Dong was extremely nervous. If the transplant succeeded, it would mean he possessed an unbelievably terrifying Special Lifeform Clone.

Special Lifeforms with a thousandfold or even several-thousandfold genetic level were nothing before the Sun Tree.

Could the World Tree claim it would definitely become a Universe Master? The most heaven-defying Special Lifeform in the Primordial Universe should have been the Natural Beast God.

A Beast God was born as a Universe Master and naturally controlled one Beast God Path.

Though the Sun Tree's growth cycle was not short, growing it to the True Deity Heaven and Earth Realm on the Boundary Heart Continent would still be measured in hundreds of millions of years. Compared to a Beast God, it was somewhat inferior.

It could eat and drink, then naturally take command of the complete rules of heaven and earth. It would only encounter enormous bottlenecks in opening up a Dao; after all, plant lifeforms found it difficult to match humanity in comprehension.

Falling Star was even more miraculous. Although it was inferior to the Sun Tree at its peak, it possessed a particularly special innate talent: parasitism.

It could parasitize other lifeforms, drain their energy, and even enslave the weak. However, even at its peak, it would only reach the Fourth Heaven Realm Deity, and becoming a True Deity was unimaginably difficult.

Across the entire Boundary Heart Continent, there were very few Falling Stars above the True Deity level. The strongest had reached the Chaos Realm level.

Boom!

The snow-white vine that had split off began to change.

The vine swelled and expanded, slowly devouring the Sun Tree.

"The crucial moment has arrived." Zhang Dong controlled the vine, devouring while replicating every tiny particle. The base of the snow-white vine was also changing.

It transformed from a vine into tree roots.

If there was a change, then success was highly likely. Zhang Dong was thrilled. What genetic level did this Sun Tree possess? Could it directly reach 10,081 times?

Reaching perfect genes in the Primordial Universe would also grant him the strongest secret technique.

The vine continued changing. More than half of it became Sun Tree-like, and only stopped after the entire tree body had been completely devoured.

A towering tree, one hundred thousand kilometers tall, stood in the center of the world.

Logically, it should have ended by now. The branches and leaves had already collapsed; they were unsuitable for the Primordial Universe's laws, so it should have been impossible to transplant such a Clone.

But perhaps because Zhang Dong's soul was so extraordinary, the giant tree continued growing!

Countless leaves and branches sprouted forth. Zhang Dong hurriedly took out several energy items for the giant tree to absorb.

Fortunately, his Primordial Universe system was only at the Realm Lord Level, while this replicated Sun Tree was merely at the God Level, so it did not require too much energy.

If it had been a Realm God Level Sun Tree, its size would have been a billion times greater than it was now.

The energy required would have been even more outrageous—more than several billion times as much. Even if Zhang Dong exchanged all the points in his possession, he could not afford to sustain it. He would have to return to the Boundary Heart Continent and absorb the energy of heaven and earth.

"Heavens." Zhang Dong could already picture himself as a Universe Master.

With the Bitter Snow Vine and Sun Tree Clones both deployed, their endless, majestic divine bodies would fill the cosmic starry sky.

"The Nine Abyss Lord, and even Luo Feng in his later years, found it difficult to control such enormous divine bodies while moving. But I have the inherited methods of the Boundary Heart Continent." Zhang Dong knew that the so-called difficulty in moving was simply because the method was wrong.

A divine body that was too enormous would inevitably affect mobility.

But moving as slowly as the Nine Abyss Sea was unreasonable instead. It had much to do with mental will and control methods. Luo Feng's divine body in his later years had been just as vast, yet no one said he moved slowly.

Next came the transplantation of Falling Star.

The process was similar to transplanting the Sun Tree. By the end, all its petals had grown out as well.

"But why is its genetic level the same as my Bitter Snow Vine's?" Zhang Dong could not understand.

Both of these Clones had genetic levels of 1,000 times. Falling Star was understandable, since its ultimate growth limit was only the Fourth Heaven Realm Deity.

But the Sun Tree could grow to the True Deity Heaven and Earth Realm at its peak. It was an existence equivalent to a Universe Master, so how could it possess only a 1,000-fold genetic level?

In the end, Zhang Dong could only attribute it to the difference in Source Worlds. Its genes were calculated based on the Bitter Snow Vine.

Once both Clones were ready, Zhang Dong went to see Dark Marquis Lord. He had to show them to his senior brother before he could leave Human Territory and venture into Cosmic Secret Realms.

After more than seven days of travel, he finally arrived at the Cosmic Secret Realm where Dark Marquis Lord resided.

The Virtual Universe Company had quite a few secret realms under its command. The one where Dark Marquis Lord lived was relatively remote, a full 30 million light-years from headquarters.

"Senior Brother, my Clones are ready. I can now undergo a Life-and-Death Trial." Zhang Dong released the Sun Tree. The giant tree, one hundred thousand kilometers tall, appeared and even startled Dark Marquis Lord.

Dark Marquis Lord carefully examined the Sun Tree for a long while.

"Where did you find this Special Lifeform?" Dark Marquis Lord asked in confusion. "Why have I never seen it before? Could it be a one-of-a-kind Special Lifeform?"

Some Special Lifeforms existed in groups. Such Special Lifeforms generally did not have high genetic levels, only a hundredfold or several hundredfold.

Others were like the Bitter Snow Vine. There were five known throughout the entire Primordial Universe, making them relatively rare.

Truly one-of-a-kind Special Lifeforms were exceedingly scarce, but Dark Marquis Lord believed he should know all the known Special Lifeforms.

But this Sun Tree?

Every leaf of the Sun Tree resembled a miniature star. Dark Marquis Lord controlled space and time, allowing him to see the immense energy contained within. It likely surpassed even many Army Lord Immortals.

"I happened upon a fortuitous opportunity," Zhang Dong said vaguely.

Dark Marquis Lord would not insist on getting to the bottom of it. Which supreme expert had not encountered countless opportunities? When he had risen to prominence, he too had possessed innumerable opportunities.

It was perfectly normal to have secrets.

Still, he was curious where Zhang Dong had found such a one-of-a-kind Special Lifeform.

Dark Marquis Lord sighed. "At the Realm Lord Level, its energy reserves are already this immense. Paired with your comprehension of the laws, you can sweep aside those Army Lord Immortals."

An ordinary Army Lord Immortal's divine body possessed only a hundred times the strength of a Realm Lord.

Zhang Dong's divine body had genes granting it a thousand times the strength of a Realm Lord, while his law comprehension at the sixteenth level of the Heavenly Bridge surpassed that of an initial-stage Marquis.

Once his law comprehension reached the twentieth level of the Heavenly Bridge, he would possess King-Level Combat Power. Plant lifeforms had enormous divine bodies; though the Sun Tree did not appear especially large right now, its density was extremely high.

By then, even a true peak King would likely find it difficult to kill Zhang Dong.
