"I won't fall for that!" Giant Axe revealed a cunning look that didn't match his appearance: "Putting aside the fact that you and Luo Feng seem quite confident."

"Besides, I don't get anything out of it, so why should I risk taking a hit from you?"

Zhou Ze couldn't help but smile, while Luo Feng's eyes showed a hint of disappointment.

"Then let's continue..."

After chatting with Giant Axe and Luo Feng for a few minutes, Zhou Ze said.

"Hmm..." the Giant Axe Founder responded, sensing the special clone, and asked in confusion, "Holy Master, didn't you break through to become the strongest in the universe? Why do I feel that the power of this clone hasn't changed?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng clenched his fist: "That's right, I was so busy chatting that I forgot about that."

"Logically, now that the teacher has broken through to become the strongest in the universe, my divine power should have seen a qualitative leap, so why don't I feel anything at all?"

"Teacher...sigh, I really don't understand your situation..."

Giant Axe nodded: "The Holy Master's breakthrough method is completely different from ours. We usually return all our divine bodies to their origin and merge in the divine kingdom, with the cosmic origin infusing energy in the end. But the Holy Master's avatar did not merge, nor did it enter his world. Could it be that he needs to enter his inner world and use the power of that world to improve?"

Zhou Ze said, "I cannot receive the infusion of the universe's origin. I am where I am today entirely by my own efforts. The improvement of divine power requires me to absorb external energy and then transform it into the origin."

"I've been continuously increasing the power of my clones..."

Luo Feng smiled brightly: "Teacher, no way! You don't need to upgrade your other clones for now. Upgrade me and Giant Axe first. We've been adventuring in this Peak Realm for a long time. The stronger we are, the safer we'll be, and the easier it will be to seize treasures."

"Dream on! You all just wait and see. I'm getting a huge loss by boosting your clones." Zhou Ze rolled his eyes.

The special clones he created for Luo Feng and the giant axe were simply divine power clones, without an original inner world. He has only transformed a few clones so far.

Each clone requires a large amount of primal power. If we waste primal power on them and cannot get any return, it would be a huge loss.

Luo Feng scratched the back of his head: "Teacher, I don't understand what you're saying. What do you mean by 'increasing the divine power of our clones is a blood loss'?"

Giant Axe was equally puzzled: "Although we have control, we are ultimately your clones. How can this be considered a huge loss?"

After a moment's thought, Zhou Ze explained, "Didn't I say before that my inner world didn't evolve into a 'divine kingdom'? Have you forgotten? Haven't you noticed anything amiss within your respective clones?"

Giant Axe and Luo Feng shook their heads in unison.

"There's nothing wrong with it, is there?"

"Is there a problem with our clone?"

"That's true. After all, you're different from me. Luo Feng has the original core of the Golden Horned Beast. I don't know about the Giant Axe, but it's probably similar to Luo Feng, with all its clones sharing the same origin." Zhou Ze glanced at the two of them.

"I understand!" Luo Feng exclaimed excitedly, "Teacher, you're not saying that this clone of mine originally had an inner world, are you?"

"An inner world? Does each clone have an inner world? That's incredible."

Giant Axe exclaimed in surprise:

"Doesn't this mean that each of your clones is essentially an independent entity? Each possesses its own origin?"

"This is my clone!" Zhou Ze emphasized repeatedly, his face full of dissatisfaction. "Luo Feng, don't keep treating my clone as yours."

Luo Feng ignored Zhou Ze and didn't understand why Zhou Ze cared so much about the ownership of the clone, even though Zhou Ze had the primary authority.

"Teacher, that's not the point. The point is, what about the inner worlds of my two clones, Giant Axe and me? Did you cut corners? Did you deliberately remove them?"

"Yes," Zhou Ze said, "Creating an inner world consumes a lot of energy, and these two clones were originally meant for you to use. My clones, on the other hand, are usually meditating and absorbing external energy. Unless something happens, they never stop."

"If I were to spend a great deal of energy to create an inner world for you, and you were unable to absorb that energy to nourish me, I would die a loss."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng immediately exclaimed, "Teacher, I'm willing to pay for the treasures to create the inner world for this clone of mine!"

Giant Axe replied, "If it were possible, I would be willing too."

Zhou Ze smiled and said, "The Giant Axe has been roaming the cosmic sea for so many epochs, it should have quite a collection, but Luo Feng, you can forget about it."

"Why should I?" Luo Feng said, dissatisfied.

Zhou Ze glanced at Luo Feng: "Because you're poor!"

Luo Feng's eyes widened.

"Don't be unconvinced." Zhou Ze smiled faintly, "You know how many energy treasures you would need if you wanted the power of the strongest being in the universe, along with your inner world."

"Even the fall of a single avatar of Chaos would be a huge loss to the race, let alone the divine avatar of the strongest being in the universe."

"The price paid is more than a hundred times that of a single divine avatar of Chaos."

Luo Feng looked troubled, then thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll just equip myself with an inner world at the level of a Universe Lord? Is that alright?"

"Hmm? The inner world doesn't seem to be of much use. No matter how large the inner world is, it can't possibly provide an energy source for the strongest being in the universe."

"I got all excited for nothing..." Luo Feng realized and said, "I forgot that the inner world isn't even a divine kingdom, so it can't convert much energy at all. The strongest beings in the universe are comparable to small universes that can devour chaotic energy. The energy conversion efficiency of ordinary universes is too low."

Luo Feng immediately calmed down, while the giant axe said, "Holy Master, then I will directly provide some treasures. Please help me upgrade this special clone to the strongest divine power in the universe. However, the treasures may need to be returned to the original universe before they can be given to you. After all, going on adventures is too dangerous. If it perishes, a lot of treasures will be wasted."

Zhou Ze didn't answer immediately, but instead smiled and said, "You two both love to overthink things. I haven't even finished speaking, and you've already started talking to yourselves."

"Oh?"

Both Giant Axe and Luo Feng were curious: could this special clone have something special about it?

"Actually, for me, it's a loss for me to give this clone to you either way, but if you have an inner world, it would be a win-win situation."

Zhou Ze explained, "Because my inner world can also devour chaotic energy!"

Boom!

Zhou Ze's last sentence resonated directly in the minds of Luo Feng and the founder of the Giant Axe.

How is that possible?

The same thought simultaneously surfaced in their minds, and upon reflection, it seemed plausible. Zhou Ze was already the strongest being in the universe. Although his inner world, for some unknown reason, could not become a divine kingdom or a miniature universe, it possessed the ability to transform chaotic energy like a miniature universe, which made sense.
