I am the Clone of a Death Row Inmate

Chapter 488: Chapter 316: Godhood Plan (4)

Only when a human genius like this matures in the wider universe, becoming strong enough to contend with the Nian Race, will the people of Blue Star have any hope of salvation.

"I can’t believe I’ve lived for over five hundred years, yet I still don’t see things as clearly as a young man like you. No wonder you’ve achieved so much as a teenager!" Mr. Ke praised. "Since that’s the case, I’ll find a way to help you obtain an extract you’ll be satisfied with. A Tier-7 extract is too difficult to get, but a Bloodline Crystal... there’s still hope for that."

Su Ze nodded. A Bloodline Crystal was indeed a possibility. All one had to do was kill someone possessed by a Nian Race Divine Spirit to obtain one.

Mr. Ke added, "However, this can’t be rushed. We have to wait for the right moment."

"I understand. Our conflict with the Alien Party is already intense. Acting rashly against them would likely trigger an all-out war," Su Ze quickly replied.

’I haven’t even fully digested the Mirage King Extract yet, so I’m in no rush for the next one. Of course, it’s a good thing to have Mr. Ke and the other higher-ups in the Blue Star Party worrying about this for me.’

Before he knew it, the support network behind Su Ze had grown larger and larger.

Looking back on the time right after he escaped from Pan Shi Prison, he could only rely on himself.

Later, he met Liou Wenxin, Mrs. Yun, and Mr. Ya. The four of them had a relationship of mutual support.

After that, with Dongli’s support, his growth rate skyrocketed. He obtained a vast amount of resources thanks to the opportunities Dongli provided.

And now, not only did he have a cosmic mother tree helping him ascend to godhood with all its power, but he also had the support of the Blue Star Party, which was composed of half the leadership of the Lin Hua Continent.

With the full support of both sides, Su Ze was destined to progress faster and more smoothly through the Saint-level stage.

...

Mr. Ke hadn’t expected that aside from some materials for upgrading and strengthening skills, all they could offer Su Ze was an empty promise of a Bloodline Crystal.

He said, "Although you can absorb a Bloodline Crystal at the Supreme stage, once you become a Legendary-rank expert, the Tier-7 extract will be an unavoidable hurdle. Without a Tier-7 extract, you can’t master a divine-level skill, which means you can’t ascend to godhood.

"But there’s currently only one Tier-7 beast on Blue Star, and we’re not its match..."

Su Ze said, "I heard from the Shepherd King that you don’t necessarily have to absorb a divine-level extract to ascend to godhood. There’s another way: creating your own divine skill by fusing existing skills."

Mr. Ke showed no surprise. "Mr. Lin Hua suspected as much long ago," he said. "He tried for many years, but unfortunately... that path is too difficult. It requires a vast amount of time. We can’t pin all our hopes on it.

"Let’s worry about the Tier-7 extract when the time comes. If there’s truly no other way, we’ll have to let you take a risk."

"You mean..." A glint flashed in Su Ze’s eyes. "Using the Nian Race?"

"Exactly. Isn’t their goal also to cultivate a divine-level human expert? With your talent and strength, they’ve probably put you on their short list of candidates long ago. When you become a Legendary-rank expert, just one Tier-7 extract away from ascending to the divine level, they’ll have no choice but to obediently hand one over.

"This plan isn’t without significant risk, however. We’ll have to see how things play out. To be honest, I’m more inclined to have you leave Blue Star before you attempt to ascend."

Seeing Su Ze’s confused expression, Mr. Ke explained, "According to the intelligence you got from the Shepherd King, as soon as a divine-level expert is about to emerge among the humans of Blue Star, those Nian Race members wearing human skin will immediately contact their homeworld. When the Nian Race experts arrive, they’ll take the new human god away.

"My original plan was for you to evade the Nian Race’s notice, quietly ascend to godhood, and then slip away. But putting aside whether we need their help to get a Tier-7 extract, I now suspect that as long as you’re on Blue Star, they’ll know the moment you ascend, no matter where you are.

"Remember that intelligence you provided? The Divine Dice acted abnormally because it detected divine-level energy fluctuations on Blue Star. If the Divine Dice can monitor the evolutionary level of the entire planet in real time, then it’s no surprise it could also detect someone attempting to ascend to the divine level."

’I really never thought of that.’ It seemed leaving Blue Star before attempting his seventh evolution was indeed the safer option.

Still, all of this was a long way off for Su Ze. He had only just completed his fifth evolution.
