Swallowing the Stars: The Puzzle of Everything!

Chapter 58 Enrage, "A Dream Behind the Curtain"

Having confirmed that all the information had been collected and that even if he disguised himself as a member of the Fire Cloud Clan, there would be no flaws, Perseus proactively dialed the contact number on the email.

Soon, a figure appeared before him and Number 1.

"Hahaha, President Xinghuo, I've truly heard so much about you."

"I've heard so much about you?"

"If you truly admired my reputation, you wouldn't have disrupted my plans in the Canggu Empire and placed your bet on Hakata Canggu. It seems you've been on the opposite side from the very beginning."

As he spoke, Perseus's eyes turned dangerous.

His eyes were fixed on the red-haired, red-eyed youth in the light screen, a cold smile playing on his lips, filled with undisguised contempt.

"Useless trash who grew up relying on their clan!"

"Perseus, are you sure you want to talk to me like that?"

As fellow realm lords, who among them isn't proud and arrogant to have reached this point?

Even though Perseus's breakthrough speed was indeed a bit fast, Candira didn't think that he was inferior to this "fellow kin" who was wandering outside.

At the very least, the two sides are not on the same level in terms of resources.

"You haven't rejoined your clan yet, if I kill you..."

"If you can do it, then give it a try—"

Perseus placed his hands on the table, leaned forward, and gave a slightly provocative look.

"According to the clan rules, when two sides fight for territory, they must follow the rule of 'first come, first served.' This is to avoid meaningless waste. You came to the Canggu Empire but did not take the initiative to greet me. You have violated the rules. Don't worry, once I return to the clan and complete the registration, I will definitely report you to the clan supervisory council."

After saying that, he turned off the communication.

On the other side, Candila, who had been able to suppress her anger, had her bomb detonated. She roared and swung it at the table in front of her where drinks were laid out.

"Bang!"

Various fragments mixed with colorful liquor instantly stained the surroundings into a mess, followed by a series of rapid breaths, carrying a hint of barely suppressed killing intent.

"That damn bastard!"

Same ethnicity, different place.

Knowing this unwritten rule meant that the other party was definitely an unknown descendant of some realm lord within the clan. Now that the other party was clearly trying to trick him, passively taking a beating was definitely not Kandila's style.

"Go complain to the clan council... Hahaha, why don't you go back first?"

"As one of only three strong individuals in the clan with the potential to break through to immortality, I am far superior to you, an unregistered genius."

"Just wait!"

"No matter how talented you are, or whether you can become immortal, a dead genius is of no value whatsoever."

……

Perseus had a general idea of ​​Candira's reaction.

The Dark Night Forum mentioned that the Fire Cloud Clan's "Clan Supervisory Council" wields immense power, comprised entirely of councilors at the Realm Lord level. It is specifically tasked with adjudicating the rights and wrongs among qualified registered powerhouses. Even Realm Lords who dare to violate the clan's rules will face extremely severe punishment once proven.

Therefore, Perseus was certain that Candira would definitely be targeting him.

The punishment faced by the other party for running rampant on their own territory is enough to make even a realm lord feel heartbroken.

If he were Candira, he would definitely take advantage of the opponent's absence to eliminate this troublesome rival before he returned.

"But I am not the same person I used to be."

Perseus stretched out his hand, and blazing flames rolled in his palm, scorching the space and forming twisting ripples.

Then Number 1, who was standing nearby, heard it.

"Let's go, Number 1, it's time for us to head to the new Imperial Star."

"Once Digori ascends the throne, the entire Canggu Empire will be ours for the taking, but for now, we must make thorough preparations..."

……

The lights remained on, and the pure white laboratory still exuded a cold atmosphere.

A young man with short, dark green hair stood in front of the lab table, carefully extending a finger and condensing drops of venom of different colors from it.

tick, tick...

As drops of venom fell, the originally calm yellow solution began to boil continuously, and its color gradually changed from yellow to blue, then to a deep emerald green, with a faint dark blue glow, flashing like a neon light.

Finally, at a certain moment.

As the last drop of gray venom splashed and rippled.

A ring of light pink, a glow that seemed to communicate with human desires, appeared in an instant, exuding a captivating and poisonous fragrance.

"This is the 132nd type of Lord-level toxin."

The Poisonous Clone extended its finger and gently stirred the contents of the beaker.

A wisp of pink light flowed upwards, and after being broken down by the innate "Ten Thousand Poisons" ability, it replaced the toxins from a source of poison within the body.

Suddenly, a familiar feeling of emptiness spread throughout my body.

Whenever the toxins of the poison source undergo a transformation, the size of the Myriad Poison Clone increases under the effect of its innate talent 'Vine Transformation'. Now, with 63868 types of Domain Lord toxins and 132 types of World Lord toxins, the Myriad Poison Clone has become a behemoth. In the moment of its complete release, each vine can reach a length of 1200 kilometers.

"With this kind of supplementation method, I'm almost afraid to mutate my genes."

He took out a level 5 three-star energy element card, converted it into wood-attribute primal energy, and integrated it into his body. The Poisonous Clone discovered that the card, which originally had a surplus after being replenished, could now only replenish 80% of the missing energy.

"30 times the genetic code, 64 vines, with a single vine reaching 1200 kilometers in length—is the cost of just the initial modification really that high?"

He hasn't even done the top-tier enhancement for a two-star level 10+ yet!

Since the main body broke through and was no longer constrained, the Myriad Poisons clone also broke through to the level of the Realm Lord.

This means he can undergo at least two bloodline transformations.

Unfortunately... high-quality plant life is just as hard to find as flesh and blood life.

Because the Flame Star Beast is comparable to the Beast God, its immense potential can barely meet the needs of Perseus's transformation.

The Poison Clone is doomed—

All special plant life forms grow in extremely dangerous areas, and he couldn't find any way to complete his bloodline transformation.

Even Descartes won't work!

He was merely an inner member of the Giant Axe Arena, not a prince in the core. Due to his limited status and abilities, after Perseus's subtle probing, the latter finally confirmed that this member from the five major powers was not capable of finding high-level plant materials for him.

"Unfortunately, the intermediate auction only takes place once every 30,000 years."

Only auctions that can even help with becoming a king can possibly find materials effective against the Myriad Poisons Clone technique.

As for the high-end auctions...

"You might not encounter that thing even once in 100,000 epochs, and even if you did, it's not something I can interfere with."

The Poisonous Clone shook its head, dismissing the unrealistic idea.

After he finished digesting the pink venom, the source of the poison in his body began to absorb energy. In a strange way, it completed the tempering of its own poison resistance while condensing a large amount of pink mist, emitting waves of potent poison that could make the world lord dizzy or even addicted.

From now on, I'll call you "A Dream Behind the Curtain"—
