For his Body Double to move freely within the Swallowed Star universe, Bai Yue needed more than raw power—he needed legitimacy. An unregistered existence, one that appeared out of nowhere, would inevitably attract the scrutiny of the universe's supreme rules. That was not something he intended to test lightly.
Fortunately, he had already anticipated this problem long ago.
The solution was elegant.
Instead of creating a body double "from nothing," he would analyze the Golden-Horned Beast's innate clone talent, then reproduce the process through a legitimate Clone Secret Technique. In doing so, the clone would be gestated, not conjured—born through a recognized evolutionary pathway rather than violating universal order.
Once this condition was placed on the table, Babata had no room to refuse.
The World Ring was obtained without resistance.
Whether Luo Feng had opinions on the matter was irrelevant—this was a transaction that benefited everyone involved.
A few days later, Bai Yue's West Lake manor was completed.
It was difficult not to marvel at the terrifying efficiency of national-level mobilization. With enough authority—and enough incentive—construction that would normally take years was completed in mere days. Equipment excavated from ancient civilization ruins was pressed into service, while certain decorative structures were dismantled from existing buildings and transported by spacecraft. Speed took absolute priority.
After a brief inspection, Bai Yue used the World Ring to transfer the Golden-Horned Beast into the manor's underground space.
The subterranean structure was enormous: a perfect square with sides measuring eight hundred meters, and a vertical clearance exceeding one hundred meters. Accommodating the two-hundred-meter-long Golden-Horned Beast was effortless.
Strictly speaking, the analysis could have been completed inside the World Ring itself. However, Luo Feng would soon perform possession, and that process required the Golden-Horned Beast to exist in real space. Since possession only altered consciousness and did not affect genetic inheritance, Bai Yue's research would remain unhindered.
"Thump. Thump. Thump."
The sound of combat boots echoed through the underground chamber as Luo Feng arrived.
In just a few short days, he had settled his family affairs and prepared himself mentally. When Babata first suggested possession, Luo Feng had refused without hesitation. Only after Bai Yue explained that the Golden-Horned Beast body would allow him to gestate a new Earthling clone did he finally agree.
"Fengzi," Bai Yue said calmly, "find a spot and begin when you're ready."
After a brief exchange, Bai Yue returned to his analysis.
From that moment on, the outside world ceased to matter.
While Bai Yue immersed himself in research, Earth underwent rapid reconstruction.
The post-war atmosphere was one of rare unity and upward momentum. The Earth Council deliberately guided public sentiment, repeatedly broadcasting heroic deeds: Bai Yue facing the Golden-Horned Beast alone and suppressing it with a single mental strike; Luo Feng slaughtering thirty-seven King-Level Monsters in a single day across three thousand li; Hong personally killing the Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor.
Heroes needed to be remembered.
With role models to aspire to, Human Martial Artists advanced at unprecedented speed. Combined with the many secret manuals Bai Yue had uploaded over the years, the quantity and quality of mid-level combatants rose sharply compared to even a few years prior.
Earth was changing—irreversibly.
Far away in the depths of the starry sky, space itself rippled like disturbed water.
A Universe-grade spacecraft slowly emerged from a spatial wormhole.
It belonged to Nuolan Shan.
By sheer luck, his adventurer fleet had encountered a natural spatial passage, bypassing vast distances and finally discovering Earth—whose Dark Universe coordinates had once been deliberately concealed by Hu Yanbo.
Yet luck had its limits.
Unable to enter Dark Universe travel, the fleet remained several years away from Earth at sub-light speed.
A month later, Bai Yue finally completed his analysis.
The Golden-Horned Beast's genetic structure, innate clone talent, and inherited information were now fully understood. Other inherited secret methods could wait—first came strengthening himself.
Confirming through Babata that Luo Feng was still assimilating the inheritance, Bai Yue left the underground chamber and entered a sealed cultivation room.
It was time.
The gestation of the Body Double began.
For a true Golden-Horned Beast, clone creation required a prokaryotic space—a biological chamber in which genetic material could be nurtured. Bai Yue lacked such an organ. Instead, his origin consciousness was anchored within the Dao Fruit Space.
So the Dao Fruit Space became the womb.
Activating the analyzed Clone Secret Technique, Bai Yue unleashed the power of creation. A radiant cluster of light formed within the Dao Fruit Space, pulsing like a living embryo.
His creation power was directly tied to his own strength.
Every minute, he could create matter and energy equivalent to his current self.
And the clone—being a part of him—grew alongside that power.
In just over a minute, the light expanded beyond two hundred meters, then stabilized. Bai Yue's current realm was Astral Rank Ninth Stage, and thus the clone reached the same limit.
Future advancement would require either independent breakthroughs or re-gestation after the main body improved.
The light condensed.
A Golden-Horned Beast emerged.
Its aura was even more violent than the original.
Connection followed.
Bai Yue's consciousness linked seamlessly with the clone, as if he had gained an additional set of senses—another perspective observing the universe from a different angle.
When synchronization completed, an overwhelming torrent of inherited information flooded in.
One day.
Two days.
Even with Astral Rank Ninth Stage Mental Power, it took five full days to fully receive it. As for mastering everything within—it was impossible to estimate.
There were eighteen special secret techniques and over three thousand standard techniques.
No one could cultivate them all.
After careful selection, Bai Yue chose three core methods.
The first was Absolute Space.
A terrifying movement secret technique that allowed instantaneous teleportation upon mastery. It belonged to one of the three great branches of Space Law. Whether for escape or combat repositioning, it was a true life-saving ultimate move—and an ideal path toward Space Law comprehension.
The second was Origin Heaven and Earth.
A body-amplification secret technique exclusive to the Golden-Horned Beast, capable of boosting strength up to thirty-six times. Upon completion, it also allowed free enlargement or reduction of body size—up to ten thousandfold.
The third was Golden Light Realm.
A rare Domain-type secret technique. Even after reaching World Lord level—when Domains normally decline in usefulness—this method allowed continuous enhancement, integrating Domain, World Projection, Metal Law, and Space Law into a suppressive field capable of crushing or annihilating enemies.
Together, these three techniques formed a complete system.
Combined with the Golden-Horned Beast's innate talents, Bai Yue's own methods—Yun Mo Planet Soul Imprint, Nine-Layered Tower, and Bewildering Heart—left him without a single weakness.
His path forward was clear.
And terrifying.
