Chapter 200 The Secret Technique of Cloning
In the Blood Luo World, above the ruins of the ancient gods, beyond the eighteenth heaven.
Inside the pyramid-shaped mechanical spaceship, Chen Yuan stood at the entrance to the control room, his eyes fixed on the golden, transparent crystal sphere suspended in mid-air—that was the original core of the Golden Horned Beast.
The surface of the crystal sphere was covered with intricate and mysterious patterns, emitting a faint golden light.
Yes, after much deliberation, Luo Feng finally agreed to Chen Yuan's request.
The allure of the Beast God statue was undoubtedly the main reason, and Luo Feng was also quite confident in his own strength.
In his mind, although Chen Yuan was a genius, he was still only at the cosmic level, while his own Golden Horned Beast clone was already at the seventh level of the Domain Lord!
Considering the Golden Horned Beast's innate genetic strength of ten times, its actual combat power is no less than that of an ordinary ninth-level domain lord human warrior.
Moreover, he also has an equally powerful Demon Slayer clone.
Both clones are here at this moment, jointly guarding the original core, one in the spaceship control room and the other in the inner world of the body.
Luo Feng did not feel that Chen Yuan posed a threat to him after crossing a major realm, so he finally agreed to the other party's request.
Of course, this was mainly because he was unaware of Chen Yuan's true combat strength.
If Luo Feng knew that his fellow clansman had single-handedly killed a peak Origin World Lord upon entering the Blood Luo World, he probably wouldn't have agreed so readily.
Fortunately, Chen Yuan kept his promise and simply observed the primordial core quietly throughout the entire process without making any other moves, which relieved Luo Feng.
At this moment, Luo Feng wasn't worried about safety, but rather he didn't want this incident to affect their friendship as fellow Earthlings.
However, Chen Yuan's observation this time did take quite a while. After half an hour, Luo Feng couldn't help but ask, "So, did you figure anything out?"
Chen Yuan glanced at the "Data Collection Complete" message displayed on the system panel, and smiled slightly: "That's fine, thank you, Brother Luo."
These secret patterns have been a great help to me.
Seeing this, Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief and immediately put the original core into the Demon Killer Clan clone. Then, the clone left the control room with Chen Yuan.
However, he was still very curious about Chen Yuan's purpose and couldn't help but ask, "By the way, Chen Yuan, you observed the primordial core for the secret patterns on it, right? Did you figure anything out?"
Luo Feng had studied the secret patterns on the primordial core for a long time, but he had never found anything and could not see anything.
Seeing Chen Yuan's "very fruitful" expression, I became curious about what he had learned from it.
"This secret rune is too profound; I have only grasped a little bit of it."
Chen Yuan smiled and gestured with his fingers, "My main purpose is to be able to utilize the effects of these runes when cultivating the clone technique in the future, and create my own 'original core'."
"It's just that clones with a primordial core are extremely rare. After searching extensively, I finally learned about the Golden Horned Beast's talent."
At this point, Chen Yuan looked at Luo Feng with a hint of apology: "In the end, I had no choice but to take the liberty of approaching Brother Luo."
"Hey, it's nothing, especially since you gave me such a precious statue. I think it's well worth it." Luo Feng waved his hand.
Since the other party's purpose has no impact on me, I must have profited from this transaction.
Then, out of curiosity, he asked, "I just heard you mention the secret technique of creating clones. Are there secret techniques for cultivating clones?"
"The secret technique of creating clones—of course it exists."
Chen Yuan smiled and replied, "Brother Luo, think about it, your Golden Horned Beast's 'Innate Secret Technique' is essentially a secret technique as well. Doesn't that mean that this kind of secret technique can be analyzed and copied by humans?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng confirmed, "A secret innate technique?"
Yes, although the innate secret technique is a secret technique born from racial talent, it is still a kind of secret technique!
Since it is a secret technique, theoretically it can indeed be analyzed, copied, and even used to create new secret techniques.
However, if even innate secret techniques can be analyzed, doesn't that mean that clone techniques are commonplace at higher levels? My proud clone doesn't seem to be as overpowered as I imagined?
Thinking of this, Luo Feng felt a little disappointed.
Seemingly sensing Luo Feng's worries, Chen Yuan comforted him, "Of course, Brother Luo, you don't need to be so pessimistic. Even in the entire universe, your talent for creating clones is at least a top-tier opportunity."
"If you don't believe me, search for the secret technique called 'Thousand Treasures Body' in the treasure vault and look at its description."
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng separated a wisp of his consciousness and entered the virtual universe, searching through the treasure vault for the secret technique that Chen Yuan had mentioned.
After reading the description of the secret technique, he looked at Chen Yuan with a strange expression: "That's it?"
"How are you feeling?" Chen Yuan asked with a smile.
"This is absolutely terrible!" Luo Feng stared in disbelief. "A secret technique with such a lousy effect dares to sell for 100 billion points?!"
"That's the truth, and this clone technique is already the most advanced in the treasure trove."
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly: "If you don't believe me, search for 'Fire Refining Body' again."
Luo Feng quickly finished reading the description of the secret technique and couldn't help but gasp: "Such a trashy secret technique actually costs 8 million points?"
It's no wonder he thought that way, because the two secret techniques Chen Yuan showed him were riddled with flaws in Luo Feng's eyes.
He could hardly believe that anyone would spend so many points to buy such a useless secret technique.
Yes, in Luo Feng's opinion, the clone techniques in the treasure vault are all useless!
Especially the book "Fire Refines the Body" which is worth 8 million.
According to the secret method, this kind of clone requires tens of millions of Chaos Units to create. More importantly, this kind of clone is entirely an energy clone!
According to the secret technique, once the clone is created, firstly, its realm will always be one major level lower than the original body; secondly, the clone cannot actively cultivate, but can only use "skill-type" secret techniques, and these must be fire-attribute secret techniques. It cannot use any other secret techniques that enhance strength.
Even more outrageous is that even if this secret technique is mastered, it still consumes hundreds of Hunyuan units of energy every year, and that's without fighting. If you encounter a battle, the energy consumption will be even greater!
Once the clone dies, it will require a treasure worth tens of millions of Chaos Units to be reassembled!
In Luo Feng's view, the only use of such clones is to scout ahead during adventures. But what's even more absurd is that clones created by this secret technique cannot stray too far from the main body. Once they stray too far, they will lose control!
Therefore, Luo Feng was completely baffled as to who was buying this garbage secret method and why the company dared to price it at 8 million.
As for the so-called top-tier clone technique, "Thousand Treasures Body," although it is slightly better than "Fire Refining Body," it is not much stronger.
Although the process of Thousand Treasures Body condensing into a clone is similar to that of the Golden Horned Beast, the difference is that the genetic material required for this clone is only a trigger. In addition to the formation of the clone, treasures worth hundreds of millions of Chaos Units are also required.
Moreover, this clone also has many drawbacks: the clone's genetic level cannot exceed that of the original body, and there is no original nucleus present—meaning that if the clone dies, it needs to be remade, while if the original body dies, it is truly dead.
The most critical point is that the creation of an avatar must be completed at the Immortal level or below.
Once the main body breaks through to immortality, although the clones will not disappear, they can never be recreated once they die.
Luo Feng couldn't understand what use a clone that couldn't be resurrected indefinitely, or a clone that required a certain level of cultivation from the original body.
But this flawed secret technique is actually the company's top-tier technology, priced at tens of billions of points!
At this moment, Luo Feng finally understood why Chen Yuan said that his Golden Horned Beast clone could be considered a "superior opportunity" in the entire universe.
Absolutely! Compared to the clone technique sold in the company, the Golden Horned Beast's innate clone technique is far superior.
If the Golden Horned Beast's clone technique could be sold, based on the company's pricing standards, it would probably fetch hundreds of billions or even trillions of points, and people would fight tooth and nail for it.
However, it was only after learning about the clone technique in the treasure vault that Luo Feng's mood brightened. At least his fate wasn't as bad as he had imagined.
"But Chen Yuan, judging from your tone, you want to buy the 'Thousand Treasures Body'?"
Luo Feng couldn't help but ask, "That's 10 billion points! Even if you have a lot of points, you can't just squander them like that."
"There's no way around it, the temptation of having clones is just too great."
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly: "Moreover, I will not cultivate directly according to the original text. I observed the secret patterns on your original core precisely to find a clone technique that can break through the limitations of the original text."
"Brother Luo, you should have heard Master Hong and the others mention that I also have a talent: I can optimize some secret techniques."
Luo Feng nodded. He had indeed heard of it, but he hadn't paid much attention to it at the time, since Chen Yuan's level was still too low back then.
Hearing Chen Yuan bring it up again, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Could it be that your talent can still work on the clone technique?"
If the clone technique could truly be optimized, that would be incredibly powerful.
"Not necessarily, there's hope." Chen Yuan shook his head. "I've never optimized such a high-level secret technique before, so it's hard to say whether I can succeed."
After hesitating for a moment, he still gave Luo Feng a heads-up: "But even if it's not possible now, once my cultivation level improves..."
"My talent will also improve; maybe then I'll be able to do it."
Although Luo Feng felt that Chen Yuan's chances of success were slim, he still encouraged him, saying, "Let's hope so."
