What did Indra do? He left Roopa and went to Viswaroopa. Roopa had offered sane advice to Indra which was rejected. 

But Viswaroopa had a different and a strange personality. He had three heads, while Roopa had only one head. Lord Dattatreya has three heads, but here this individual was a human with a demonic quality and sported three heads. 

With one head he constantly consumed meat, with the second head he consumed liquor, and with the third head he continuously chanted the Vedas. It was very strange indeed.

By wrapping a silk saree on a pig can one make it look beautiful? While eating meat and drinking liquor, if one chants the Vedas, is it of any use? He felt flattered that he was being given the opportunity of being Guru to the gods themselves. 

He also had a grudge against his brother. Now that Indra himself had approached him with the request, he felt happy that he got a chance to get even with his brother. 

As his Guru, Viswaroopa had Indra perform several sacrificial rituals. In one of them he also had Indra invoke the presence of Lord Dattatreya and earned for him His grace. 

Well and good. In addition, Visvaroopa initiated Indra into the Narayana Kavacha so that he would be blessed with victory in battles.

Visvaroopa had great love for his mother, who had much loyalty towards her parents. Secretly, in all the religious rituals, Viswaroopa was arranging for a portion of the fruits of the sacrifices to be distributed amongst the demons. 

Outwardly he was having the deities perform great rituals, and as a result, his fame increased amongst them. That was quite natural. Let us see how his popularity is going to diminish soon.
