Chapter 629: Chapter 631: Splitting the Body, Reaping the Harvest!

Hua Hua Taisui’s memories were so rich that it took Lin Zhen more than ten days to digest them.

Discarding some of the useless memories, Lin Zhen originally thought he had only gained a doppelgänger, but he didn’t expect that there was a pleasant surprise as well.

Hua Hua Taisui could be said to have died very unjustly; he didn’t even have a chance to use his unique skills before he died under Lin Zhen’s elixir. If they had really fought, ten Lin Zhens wouldn’t be enough for Hua Hua Taisui to crush with one hand.

The Flickering Sword Qi was powerful enough to pierce metal and stone, and even the top-quality Heavenly Tools could not withstand his attack. Back then, he had sneaked into the palace to peek at the Crown Princess bathing by relying on the Flickering Sword Qi and fighting off the Longevity Warriors who pursued him.

The Phantom Light Sword, a high-grade treasure, and the deadly serial sword skill were his trump cards against the Longevity Warriors.

Furthermore, the body of the Purple Gold Divine Clan was unbelievably sturdy, and just by looking at how Lin Zhen’s full-strength attack could only pierce their skin, one could see their resilience.

There was one memory that Hua Hua Taisui remembered particularly vividly, and that was the time he peeked at the Crown Princess of Nan Liang bathing.

The Crown Princess was a woman who had reached the Longevity Realm and was also an extremely beautiful woman.

Hua Hua Taisui had played with countless women in his life, but the one he longed for the most was this Crown Princess.

His multiple pursuits were unsuccessful, so he finally decided to sneak into the palace intending to take a sneak photo of the Crown Princess. Unexpectedly, he was caught red-handed while the Crown Princess was bathing.

However, in reality, he didn’t capture anything critical as the Crown Princess had discovered him before she finished undressing.

Afterward, Hua Hua Taisui was embroiled in a fierce pursuit, and the person who really wanted to kill him was none other than the Crown Princess.

He had barely escaped from the palace after a battle, but he was severely injured by the Crown Princess’s Ice Soul God Needle and could not recover in time, giving Lin Zhen the opportunity to finish him off.

The Crown Princess must have hated Hua Hua Taisui to death, as she shot out three Ice Soul God Needles that not only generated cold and poison upon entering his body but had also suppressed a large portion of Hua Hua Taisui’s Star Power.

Ranked by their power levels, the third Ice Soul God Needle was called Bloodthirst, which suppressed a million of Hua Hua Taisui’s Star Power!

This divine needle fused with both his blood vessels and blood, and it would only lose its power once it was saturated with blood.

The second Ice Soul God Needle was called Bone Etching, which not only suppressed one and a half million Star Power but also destroyed his bones!

Finally, the last divine needle was called Heart Inscription, which suppressed a whopping two million Star Power. If this needle was left untended, it would eventually pierce Hua Hua Taisui’s heart and kill him.

Initially, Hua Hua Taisui had relied on his powerful body to survive the Longevity Realm Warriors’ attacks without being fatally injured. However, he nearly died of embarrassment when the vengeful Crown Princess made her move as he was about to escape from the palace.

Originally, Hua Hua Taisui’s Star Power was as high as six million and fifty thousand, but after the Crown Princess’s three divine needles suppressed it, he was left with only two million. This was one of the reasons why he didn’t dare to go out.

Bone Etching, Heart Inscription, and Bloodthirst; all three needles hit their mark, not only sealing his Star Power but also containing hard-to-neutralize toxins.

Hua Hua Taisui had been staying in this manor for many years, plagued by the toxins and unable to extract any of the divine needles. The treasures of the Longevity Realm Warriors were not easy to deal with.

These things had a consciousness; once you thought about removing them, they would burrow deeper into your body. Over the years, Hua Hua Taisui had suffered greatly from these needles but didn’t dare to go out to seek treatment, wasting his life in the manor.

After reviewing this memory, Lin Zhen secretly thought to himself that he must never meet this Crown Princess while using Hua Hua Taisui’s body as a doppelgänger, or else he would die an ugly death.

For ten days, Lin Zhen organized Hua Hua Taisui’s memories and gained a deeper understanding of the customs and people of the Original World. After absorbing the memories of two people, Lin Zhen was now quite knowledgeable about the Original World.

With Hua Hua Taisui’s techniques inherited due to possessing his body, Lin Zhen learned them all.

The Phantom Light Sword was a superb treasure, and Lin Zhen had never held anything so wonderful before.

The Flicking Sword Qi was even more deadly. After mastering it, Lin Zhen improved it by infusing it with gold and thunder elements, which increased its speed to sub-light speed and amplified its power.

Most importantly, Lin Zhen restored Hua Hua Taisui’s Divine Infant, whose spiritual power had reached the Golden Early Stage after surviving the disaster!

A body that couldn’t be pierced by swords or guns, a Divine Infant at the Golden Early Stage, sword skills and finger techniques, a doppelgänger with two million points in Star Power – these were Lin Zhen’s gains from this journey!

The only regret was that Hua Hua Taisui didn’t have much money due to his many years of fleeing, so Lin Zhen didn’t gain anything in that regard.

However, having gained so much already, Lin Zhen was confident that money would not be a problem once his own matters were resolved.

His original body stood beside the doppelgänger and gently tapped it, making a clanging sound.

“Wow! The Purple Gold Divine Clan truly deserves to be one of the top races in the universe; this talent is just too strong! This guy almost has no weaknesses. If there is a weakness, it is the Ice Soul God Needles in his body.”

Now that Hua Hua Taisui’s body had become Lin Zhen’s doppelgänger, the toxins within the God Needles had been expelled by Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen didn’t want to keep the deadly needles in his body, but the Ice Soul God Needles were too tricky to deal with and couldn’t be removed using Lin Zhen’s own power. Each needle seemed to be alive; as long as you didn’t touch them, they wouldn’t harm you, and you could even fight without any issues.

However, you couldn’t forcibly remove them either. The three divine needles had three different attributes, and only special items could extract them.

For example, to remove the Bloodthirsty Divine Needle, you needed the corresponding Spirit Blood to refine an elixir that would saturate and neutralize the needle’s power.

“It seems I cannot remove the Divine Needle for now, but if it weren’t for this, I probably wouldn’t have gained this clone so easily. As for the Divine Needle, it doesn’t affect much anyway, so let it stay here for now. I’ll take it out one by one once I find a way to remove it.”

Lin Zhen’s gaze turned back to the inner world of Hua Hua Taisui.

His inner world was vast, a continent that spans tens of millions of square kilometers.

It’s not to say that a World King’s domain must be huge, this world was actually roughly the same size as Lin Zhen’s Dark Star Space.

Lin Zhen clenched his fists with force: “Great, I finally have a clone again! Although this clone is wanted by the royal family and is worth a hundred billion, to me, having a powerful clone is the most important thing. However, I find this appearance somewhat annoying, so I’ll change it to my own.”

Lin Zhen was proficient in the Morphing Skill and immediately changed his appearance to look exactly like Lin Zhen’s original body.

“Hahaha! I am now a Peak World King, and an incredibly powerful one at that. A typical genius Peak World King would have four to five million Star Power already, but this guy has 6.5 million! He’s definitely among the top echelon of World Kings. If it weren’t for the Crown Princess’s three Divine Needles that I can’t currently deal with, I would be fearless against anyone below the Longevity Realm!”

However, Lin Zhen was satisfied with the two million Star Power and the powerful body, which was enough to deal with everything at the moment.

Moreover, Hua Hua Taisui had another ability that was the Breath Concealing Technique, which could change the realm’s appearance on the surface and make it impossible for anyone to see through. He had relied on this move to disguise himself as an early-stage Star Domain guard and sneak into the Imperial Palace.

Lin Zhen also changed the surface realm of his clone to a Tier Nine Star System, allowing the clone to walk outside on his behalf without being found out by anyone.

Finally, Lin Zhen found Hua Hua Taisui’s mount within his inner world.

A Six-Winged Poison Dragon with the strength of a Peak World King!

This Poison Dragon was also a notorious creature whose speed was close to the limit of sub-light speed, surpassing 100,000 kilometers per second. After being tamed by Hua Hua Taisui, they had committed countless misdeeds together.

However, Lin Zhen didn’t get rid of the Poison Dragon, as it was still a powerful combat force. Although it wasn’t on par with a true Peak World King, an average World King wouldn’t stand a chance against it.

Lin Zhen placed the Poison Dragon in the Dark Star Space to acquaint itself with the Roc bird.

Once inside the space, the Poison Dragon didn’t bother with the Roc bird and instead found a spot in the Star Fruit Tree to settle down. It was still pondering if its master had changed or not.

After dispersing the servants in the mansion, Lin Zhen returned directly to Xianle County.

********

After returning, Lin Zhen’s main body plunged back into the alchemy room and began to madly and massively refine elixirs.

As many Star Domain Stage Juyuan Powders as he could make.

In another month, Lin Zhen’s main body could make a breakthrough and reach Tier Nine Star System, after which he would need Star Domain Stage medicine.

As the clone left the alchemy room, he didn’t see Lin Feng, who was probably at the shop.

Leaving his courtyard, Lin Zhen entered the guild building.

As soon as the receptionist saw Lin Zhen, she bowed her head and said, “Elder Lin Zhen, you’re back.”

To everyone else, Lin Zhen’s main body and clone were indistinguishable and showed no difference at all.

“Su Shanna, are there any Four Spirits Blood in the guild?”

Lin Zhen had already found a way to remove the Bloodthirsty Divine Needle, which was to blend the blood of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise together to make an elixir. Once the Bloodthirsty Divine Needle was fed enough, it would lose its power and no longer harm the clone’s body.

Once this Divine Needle was removed, Lin Zhen’s clone would gain an additional million Star Power.

After checking, Su Shanna replied, “Elder Lin Zhen, we currently only have Black Tortoise blood in the guild. Do you need it?”

“Give me the blood, and add the cost directly to my account. Also, help me make a purchase order for the other three types. I’ll give you a commission once the deal is done.”

“Hehe… Thank you, Elder Lin Zhen.”

Immediately, Su Shanna posted a buy order on the guild’s website. If someone had the required blood, they would come to trade with her.

As Lin Zhen collected the Black Tortoise blood and left the guild’s main door, he found himself in the shopping area.

His Ice and Fire Divine Pill shop was also in this location, which was considered an excellent spot.

Along the way, people looked at the elder with five Gold Stars on his chest with admiration, as alchemists were highly respected in this place.

As Lin Zhen walked a few steps, a teasing voice suddenly came from the side.

“Oh! Look who’s here! Isn’t this the infamous Ice and Fire Alchemist?”
