Chapter 789: Chapter 792: Beast Binding Soul Lock

After the collapse of the spirit treasure, Lin Zhen's Kirin Cannon finally showed its powerful power.

Because the martial artists were lined up in a straight line, those behind didn't even know about the breaking of the shield in front, and they didn't have time to dodge, so the disaster happened.

Apart from the two or three hundred martial artists who saw the shield break and escaped in the first place, the Kirin Cannon pierced the next one thousand four or five hundred people!

Lin Zhen chose to stand head-on because he was waiting for this moment.

An energy beam penetrated from the first person to the last, leaving behind only a large piece of legs!

The upper body of the people was vaporized by the energy beam, and the remaining legs fell from the sky with a bang.

After this blow, there were less than two thousand mercenaries left to attack Lin Zhen, which no longer posed a significant threat.

Lin Zhen switched back to the Kirin Gun's attack mode and began precision shooting.

One corpse after another fell from the sky, and the number of enemies was getting smaller and smaller, soon dropping below a thousand.

Until this moment, no one could cross the canyon artificially drawn by Lin Zhen's Sword Gang.

The Kirin Clan members were excitedly singing and dancing, constantly stepping on the ground with their claws, sending out a string of cheerful rhythms.

At this rate, maybe the battle would be over in two minutes.

The people of the Qin Kingdom helplessly watched the Dimensional Universe, never expecting that Lin Zhen could massacre so many people under siege, and the Longevity Realm could no longer pose any threat to him.

However, under the influence of the medicine, the remaining martial artists were still rushing towards Lin Zhen quickly, and the bloody atmosphere of slaughter around them grew thicker and thicker, driving them even crazier.

As they rushed over, without getting close to Lin Zhen, a blood flower bloomed on their foreheads, their heads exploded on the spot, and their bodies fell to the ground. This scene kept repeating itself.

"Whoosh~!"

Several figures swiftly passed through the edge of the battlefield.

"Don't pay attention to Lin Zhen anymore! Go and kill the people of the Kirin Clan, and then Lin Zhen won't be able to use this light bullet indiscriminately!"

Lin Zhen was shocked, seeing several black shadows flying past him at an astonishing speed!

"Three Flowers Stage!"

Lin Zhen frowned slightly, and they finally appeared.

He knew that with Qian Tong's deployment, he wouldn't have just Longevity Stage martial artists to deal with him, because he could always escape even if he couldn't win. There must be hidden experts inside.

Sure enough, when the battle reached a critical moment, the Three Flowers Warriors appeared, and they made a surprising move when they first appeared.

Instead of attacking Lin Zhen, they went for the people of the Fire Kirin Clan.

It has to be said that this strategy of undermining the enemy's foundation is very effective. If it were before, Lin Zhen wouldn't have to worry about it, but now that he had just taken office as the clan leader, he couldn't let the opponents kill his people.

"You cannot run amok!"

Lin Zhen gave up his defense in front of him and quickly ran back.

The Kirin Gun's precision shooting could easily kill the Longevity Stage, but it couldn't easily kill the Three Flowers Stage, especially when there were more than one of them.

However, Lin Zhen's speed was faster than theirs, and when they charged the Kirin Clan members, Lin Zhen also fought back.

As he was about to catch up, the two Three Flowers Warriors suddenly turned back!

Instead of attacking Lin Zhen, they passed Lin Zhen from both sides and ran in the opposite direction.

At this moment, Lin Zhen hesitated. He could now take action to kill these two fleeing martial artists, but in front of him, eight other black-robed martial artists were still there.

If he killed these two, the eight would go to the Kirin Clan crowd and start a massacre.

Between the two evils, Lin Zhen resolutely gave up on the two and continued to pursue the eight.

But this move brought about disastrous consequences!

An invisible rope suddenly wrapped around Lin Zhen's neck, directly tilting his body backward!

The two ends of the rope were those two seemingly fleeing black-robed martial artists!

"Beast Binding Soul Lock!"

When the invisible rope locked Lin Zhen, someone in the Kirin Clan screamed out.

As soon as this name came out, everyone, including Lin Zhen, was shocked!

The Beast Binding Soul Lock, known as the nemesis of all Galaxy Beasts.

When bound by this rope, not only their bodies were tied, but even their souls were captured!

The more the Galaxy Beast struggles, the tighter the rope binds. Unless you struggle to death, you can't break free.

This Beast Binding Soul Lock is extremely expensive, with one costing 50 billion. Two could purchase a Wormhole Egg.

In the Original World, some powerful martial artists use Galaxy Beasts instead of ordinary wild beasts as their mounts, which they capture and then tie with Beast Binding Soul Lock, making the beasts completely surrender and serve as their mounts.

It would be a fantastic sight to use a Longevity Stage or even a Three Flowers Stage Galaxy Beast for riding or even pulling a cart.

Not only would it be eye-catching, but it would also be a strong helper, as after being completely conquered, the mount would be part of one's combat power.

When the Beast Binding Soul Lock was fastened on Lin Zhen, he knew Qian Tong's ambitions.

This guy not only wanted to eliminate Lin Zhen, but even turn him into a mount!

For Galaxy Beasts, it is better to catch alive than to kill.

But Lin Zhen would not be content to be bound by the Beast Binding Soul Lock. He grabbed the rope with both hands, trying to break free.

Having the Beast Binding Soul Lock did not guarantee immediate success, because the Galaxy Beasts were very powerful. The stronger the Galaxy Beast, the harder it was to capture. There were also many cases of failed captures in the Original World, some even resulting in the deaths of Galaxy Beasts.

Lin Zhen was undoubtedly an extremely powerful Galaxy Beast. These two Three Flowers Warriors could not hold him back. Although the Beast Binding Soul Lock constantly suppressed Lin Zhen's Star Power and attacked his soul, if they continued like this, they would be killed by Lin Zhen before they could succeed!

The two Three Flowers Warriors didn't dare to let go and shouted to the others, "Hurry up!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two more Three Flowers Warriors sprinted over, and another Beast Binding Soul Lock bound Lin Zhen's right arm from a distance!

It turned out there was more than one Beast Binding Soul Lock!

A strong binding force came, and at this moment, Lin Zhen felt as if two giant pythons were entwining around him, desperately strangling him.

Lin Zhen stretched out his left hand to pull, and two more Three Flowers Warriors rushed over. The third Beast Binding Soul Lock was bound again!

The wrapping action was incredibly fast, and Lin Zhen's left and right hands were bound once more.

With his neck and hands bound, Lin Zhen was still unwilling to give up. He spread his legs and ran, trying to rush into the Panpas Volcano. He didn't believe these Three Flowers Warriors could still be a match for him inside the volcano.

The enemy's Three Flowers group had ten people. Seeing that Lin Zhen wanted to run, the remaining four rushed over again. Two people pulled a Beast Binding Soul Lock and completely bound Lin Zhen's legs!

Ten Three Flowers Warriors with five Beast Binding Soul Locks – Qian Tong had spared no effort to capture Lin Zhen!

"Clan Leader!"

Seeing that Lin Zhen was about to be captured, Lin Chuang and the others behind him were about to rush over to help.

At this moment, a dark cloud covered the sky, and the five powerful experts all appeared.

Nine Spirits, Photoelectric, Red Witch, Dao Sha, and Taishan!

These five Three Flowers Peak Holy Land Warriors blocked the way of the Kirin Clan members. Their powerful Star Power suppressed the young Kirin Clan members, making them unable to move forward!

"I advise you not to seek your own destruction. Lin Zhen is finished today. If you don't want the Kirin Clan to be destroyed, behave yourselves!"

Photoelectric stood in front of a group of Fire Kirins, feeling a bit uneasy. With more than 10,000 Fire Kirins here, they couldn't possibly stop them all if they swarmed. They had no choice but to try to intimidate them first.

As long as the older generation of the Kirin Clan didn't make a move, they wouldn't be afraid of just these young Kirins.

The eyes of the older generation were focused on Elder Li and the others, waiting for their orders.

Elder Li and the others exchanged glances, took a deep breath, and made a decision.

Elder Li waved his hand: "Everyone, do not act rashly. Do not forget the words of the Clan Leader before he went to battle. He does not allow any of us to interfere. Do you want to disobey orders?"

Lin Chuang's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Elder Li: "But the Clan Leader is in danger….!"

"Don't judge the Clan Leader's safety with your insignificant wisdom. The Clan Leader is an extraordinary figure who will surely turn the tables. You all just watch."

With the orders of the elders, the older generation of the Kirin Clan did not move, while Lin Chuang and the younger generation were powerless due to their insufficient realm levels.

Seeing this situation, Photoelectric and Nine Spirits finally heaved a sigh of relief.

However, they were still a bit unwilling. Seeing Lin Zhen's performance just now, they had planned to fight him, but they didn't expect Qian Tong to have a backup plan, and they ended up being surplus to requirements.

"Forget it, at least there is money to be made. It's just a pity about Lin Zhen. In the end, he will become Qian Tong's mount."

On the battlefield, the ten Three Flowers Warriors struggled with all their might, and Lin Zhen's struggling gradually weakened.

No Galaxy Beast could resist the force of the five Beast Binding Soul Locks.

It seemed Lin Zhen was also tired. Finally, he lay on the ground unmoving, not knowing whether he had given up or not.

"How is he? Is his soul imprisoned or is he dead? How come he's not moving at all?"

One of the Three Flowers Warriors shook the rope, and the Beast Binding Soul Lock had no response, which made him feel something was wrong.

If the target bound by the Beast Binding Soul Lock died, that's what the chain would be like.

But in their view, Lin Zhen was a young hero with boundless prospects. Even if he would rather be captured, he wouldn't choose death. He had an infinite future. How could he be willing to die?

All ten of them shook the rope but couldn't feel any signs of life from Lin Zhen.

"Go take a look. It can't be some kind of fake death, can it? Don't be fooled by this guy!"

The ten of them slowly gathered around and began to get close, carefully checking Lin Zhen's pulse, heartbeat, and body temperature.

"It's over. Lin Zhen is dead!"

After several confirmations, one of the warriors shouted loudly.

At this shout, the other warriors were also greatly alarmed. Their orders were to capture Lin Zhen alive if possible, otherwise Qian Tong wouldn't have provided them with the Beast Binding Soul Locks. They didn't expect Lin Zhen to die!

The ten Three Flowers Warriors immediately closed in, trying to see if there was any way to rescue him.

Chapter 790: Chapter 793: Resurrection

As Lin Zhen was tied up and fell to the ground, silent and motionless, it could be said that it was the time for the people of the Qin Kingdom to celebrate.

Especially when a martial artist said that Lin Zhen was dead, the people of Qin Kingdom were even more excited than during the New Year or winning a prize.

Posts celebrating in forums were so numerous that they were virtually impossible to read, as they moved up the screen at a rapid pace in a blurry manner.

In any city of the Qin Kingdom, huge cheers could be heard.

Merchants selling items would give them a celebratory theme.

In just over ten seconds, items of all kinds, such as a Lin Zhen-killing tug-of-war rope and Lin Zhen-killing masks, appeared.

Even a book about the top ten masters, whose identities were unknown, was being prepared by poets and scholars; whoever published it first would be a best-seller.

This minute-long period was like heaven for the people of the Qin Kingdom.

After three people confirmed Lin Zhen's death, the leading Three Flowers Warrior came forward.

"Sigh! We may have overestimated Lin Zhen. There was no need to use five Beast Binding Soul Locks to deal with him. This time it's like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, a waste of resources. No matter how talented he is, he's still just a World King. Can he really soar into the heavens?"

"There's nothing we can do now. He's dead. Take him away and report to Saint Master."

"Come on, untie these ropes. Five hundred billion for a rope, it must be the most expensive rope in the Original World. Please be careful, everyone, don't damage it. Perhaps the Saint Master will use it to bind other Galaxy Beasts in the future."

Two of the ten people worked together to untie the ropes on Lin Zhen.

These Beast Binding Soul Locks were in an ethereal state before being revealed and were undetectable. When they appeared, they would reveal a faint golden rope. It was said that the material came from the Endless Star Sea. A single Beast Binding Soul Lock was enough to bind any Galaxy Beast, and using five of them against Lin Zhen was simply a precaution.

After untying the Beast Binding Soul Locks from Lin Zhen's hands, feet, and neck, the leading martial artist said, "I will take Lin Zhen's body and show it to the Saint Master myself."

Several warriors had no objection, but one of them sighed, "This battle was too easy, not enjoyable at all."

"Yes, Lin Zhen's fame seems undeserved, and he didn't value his own life enough, dying just like that."

The Fire Kirin Clan members were devastated in the distance. Their newly appointed leader had died so suddenly, a sight they never wanted to see. All Fire Kirin transformed into human forms, some even crying to the point of fainting.

Elder Li and others feigned sadness, wiping their eyes before addressing the clan members, "Don't be sad, even though our leader is gone, our lives must go on. These people didn't come targeting us, so we're not in any danger."

"Yes, now is not the time for grief. Our top priority is to elect a new leader who will guide us in continuing to stand in the Original World."

"That's right, we need to choose a new leader. I nominate Elder Sima."

"I think Elder Wang is the pillar of our clan and should have no problem being elected as leader."

"Elder Li is like a jade pillar that supports the sky and a golden bridge that arches over the sea. He is the undisputed leader of our clan in terms of character and martial arts. Only he is worthy of leading our clan!"

Some of the older generation began arguing on the spot, fighting for the position of leader.

However, electing a new leader was not a decision that could be made only by them. It required the majority of the clan to agree, and the proportion of young people was high.

At this moment, Lin Chuang spoke up, "Stop arguing. Only those who can bring our leader's body back will be considered for the position. If you can't even achieve that, you are not worthy!"

This statement immediately gained the approval of all the young people. The leader's body was about to be taken away, and these elders were still fighting for power. It was truly chilling and infuriating.

The elders also immediately fell silent, as there was no way they could fetch Lin Zhen's body now.

The leading warrior, holding the five Beast Binding Soul Locks in one hand, reached out to grab Lin Zhen with the other.

"Lin Zhen, oh Lin Zhen, your leadership truly was a sad one. You were probably the shortest-lived leader in the history of the Fire Kirin Clan. Just as you died, they started fighting for your position. You really failed in this life."

As he spoke, he tried to grip Lin Zhen's clothes, but before he could use force, his hand suddenly felt heavy.

"Hmm… what's going on? Who's holding onto my Beast Binding Soul Lock? Let go quickly, this thing is very valuable!"

A voice replied, "Whether it's valuable or not is none of your business. Worry about your own life instead!"

A powerful force surged, and the five Beast Binding Soul Locks were snatched away directly by the other party.

"What are you doing…? Ah! Lin Zhen!"

His pupils instantly dilated as he saw Lin Zhen on the ground suddenly open his eyes.

His shout was too late. Lin Zhen's body sprang up, Landis's spear appearing in his hand. The spear was held horizontally across his shoulders as his body suddenly spun like a windmill.

A layer of faint golden light coated the spear, an ultimate technique of Lin Zhen, Gold Attachment.

The surrounding martial artists were not just any ordinary people, they were all top-notch experts of the Three Flowers Realm. Although they were not Holy Land Warriors, each of them was extremely powerful.

As Lin Zhen's long spear, wrapped in wind and cloud, attacked them, they had no time to dodge but instinctively raised their weapons to defend.

Among these weapons, there were many treasures of the spirit treasure level.

However, these treasures were like paper in front of Lin Zhen's Landis Spear after it had been imbued with gold.

The Landis Spear itself was a top-quality spirit treasure, and after being imbued with gold, it became invincible.

A burst of golden light erupted, like the first rays of the rising sun, the myriad of radiance dispersing all the gloom and darkness!

Everywhere the long spear went, weapons shattered, and flesh and blood flew!

Nine of the ten Three Flowers Realm martial artists were instantly cut into two by Lin Zhen's single strike!

Only the leading martial artist managed to dodge a bit and was hit by the glancing blow of the spear, but it still cut open his chest, revealing his wriggling internal organs. He seemed to be at death's door.

The leading martial artist stumbled backward, his body wilted, and knelt down. Pointing at Lin Zhen, he said, "You… you were supposed to be dead, right?"

Lin Zhen laughed and held the Landis Spear in one hand and the five Beast Binding Soul Locks in the other. "Who told you I was dead? I'm perfectly alive. It's just that you people are blind and can't tell between life and death."

As he spoke, he suddenly leaned close to the martial artist leader: "You idiots, did you think that the Beast Binding Soul Locks were my nemesis? I don't mind telling you that this is just a clone of mine, and it has no life. What's the use of tying it up? I can make my clone appear lifeless at any time and bring it back to life whenever I want. Playing dead was just to lure you fools to come to me, so I can catch you all in one go!"

Shaking the Beast Binding Soul Locks in his hand, Lin Zhen sneered: "These things are not bad, I'll take them. Thanks for the big gift you brought me, oh… no! I should thank Qian Tong! I'm sure he's watching the situation here through the Dimensional Universe right now. Unfortunately, he cannot hear what I am saying. Let him be anxious!"

After Lin Zhen finished speaking, he raised his head and shouted outside: "Qian Tong! Let's settle our scores after I return to the Holy Land!"

Only then did the martial artist leader suddenly realize why Lin Zhen died without hesitation. It turned out that this was just a clone!

But according to their investigation, wasn't Lin Zhen's clone already without life? How could there be another one?

Their painstaking plan had caught a lifeless, meaningless clone, which was a huge irony!

He was unwilling to accept this, but Lin Zhen would no longer give him any chances. The long spear in his hand swept across, and it completely ended the life of the martial artist leader.

With this, all ten Three Flowers warriors were killed, and the scattered Longevity Stage martial artists who had been floating in the air had also sobered up from the effect of the elixir. Seeing the situation, they immediately turned around and fled without hesitation.

No matter if the five people from Guang Dian could kill Lin Zhen or not, it had nothing to do with them anymore. They would definitely not stay here any longer, as this battle was not something they could participate in.

In the Holy Land, Qian Tong slammed the table, smashing a newly refined elixir.

"Lin Zhen! Don't be too arrogant. Those five from Guang Dian are the main force this time. My ten guest officials are just non-Holy Land Three Flowers Warriors, which are completely different concepts from the Holy Land Three Flowers. Even if you defeat them, don't expect to escape from the hands of the five from Guang Dian!"

Lin Zhen's shout had put him in the spotlight, and Qian Tong believed that the Five Princes would come after him.

Now, Qian Tong could only hope that Guang Dian and his group would quickly kill Lin Zhen. At this point, there was no turning back for him.

At this moment, the people of the Kirin Clan were dumbfounded.

The change of events was too sudden. Lin Zhen, who was thought to have died, suddenly became alive and well, and he even brazenly killed the ten Three Flowers martial artists like slaughtering chickens using the Landis Spear.

The great joy and sadness of life were too stimulating. After a brief shock, the Kirin Clan erupted with sky-shattering cheers!

All the Fire Kirins that had just transformed into human forms became Galaxy Beasts once again, and they screamed with the loudest voices they could muster for their clan leader!

Lin Chuang and the others excitedly rushed out, wanting to express their excitement to the clan leader, but Lin Zhen waved them off.

"My fellow clansmen, I understand how you feel at the moment, but please don't be too excited, because the battle is not yet over."

"Clan leader! Let us help! There are only five of them left now. Can't we just watch them make trouble in our Fire Kirin Clan?" Lin Chuang shouted loudly.

Indeed, even if the five of Guang Dian were strong, they wouldn't be able to withstand the onslaught of the Fire Kirins.

When they heard that, Guang Dian and his group looked a bit worried. Their eyes darted around, considering if they should escape right away.

Lin Zhen chuckled: "All of you, calm down for now. I promise you that you will be able to help in this battle, you just need to follow my orders."

Lin Chuang and the others stopped moving, as Lin Zhen's words carried absolute authority in their hearts.

Lin Zhen's gaze swept across, and Elder Li and the others did not dare to raise their heads.

In the end, his gaze fell on Guang Dian and his team.

"Snap!"

With a flick of his spear, Lin Zhen said to the five of Guang Dian: "Don't worry too much. I promise you won't die today, but… you might not be so free in the future!"

Chapter 791: Chapter 794 – Beast King Lin Zhen! (Third Update)

After Lin Zhen finished speaking, he waved his hand at the surrounding Fire Kirin Tribespeople, "All tribe members heed my command, encircle these individuals and activate the Skyfire Array! None of them shall escape!"

The tribespeople surrounding them roared in agreement.

The Fire Kirin Clan was versed in formation tactics, a guarantee of their tribe's survival. At Lin Zhen's command, even Elder Li and the others dared not defy him, all the tribespeople automatically dispersed.

Not far apart, a Fire Kirin was present, supporting each other while intense flames rose around their bodies, forming a towering flame cage reaching a kilometer high!

The blazing fire ascended like a volcano, with such an intense fire element that they couldn't get close. Even if someone who wasn't afraid of the power of the flames attempted to approach, they would be attacked by the concealed Fire Kirins within the flames.

Seeing Lin Zhen's arrangement, the faces of the group of Guang Dian turned pale.

"Lin Zhen! You claimed nobody from your tribe would interfere with our battle, why have you gone back on your word?"

Lin Zhen gave a cold laugh, "My people still aren't interfering, they're simply trying to keep you from escaping. If you're capable, defeat me and I guarantee they will let you go without a condition. But if you can't even beat me, then I'm afraid you'll have to stay."

"They won't interfere during the battle?"

Lin Zhen shook his head: "Absolutely not!"

After saying that he commanded the Fire Kirin clan again, none of them were to interfere in his battle or else they would face severe punishment.

Seeing Lin Zhen offering such guarantees, a little relief washed over Guang Dian's group.

If it was just him, they were not afraid of Lin Zhen. Though Lin Zhen's gun ruled previously, killing ten thousand Longevity Warriors leaving them battered, in a battle between Holy Land Warriors, the only thing capable of subduing the battle is the Holy Land Martial Arts, one's core strength.

As five Holy Land Warriors reaching Three Flowers Peak, they didn't believe they wouldn't handle Lin Zhen, a lone World King.

"What should we do now? Should we test this guy first?" Guang Dian turned to the others.

Nine Spirits, Red Witch, Taishan, and Dao Sha looked at each other, then Nine Spirits stepped forward.

"I know you four come from the Four Sacred Beasts clans, the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. You should have some ultimate techniques to use, so let me test Lin Zhen to see how worthy this brash kid is of his bragging!"

Seeing Nine Spirits volunteer to fight, the others nodded their agreement.

Though Guang Dian led their five, it didn't mean he was stronger than Nine Spirits.

In fact, Nine Spirits was the strongest among them. The reason Guang Dian could lead the others in battle was mainly because he was the leader of the Four Spirits, from the Azure Dragon Clan!

As part of the Four Sacred Beasts, the four clans have an obligation to unite. While the Azure Dragon Clan belongs to the Dragon Clan, they actually share a closer bond with the other three clans, often collaborating together.

In any solo battle, all four of them were weaker than Nine Spirits, including Guang Dian of the Azure Dragons.

Moreover, if someone lost their initial fight, the four of them would not be able to unite for a joint attack. Consequently, they could not afford to split off.

With Nine Spirits stepping forward, it was just what they wanted.

Nine Spirits approached Lin Zhen, his towering body like a small mountain, a wild aura rushing forward in waves.

"Hehe, Nine-Headed Lion, it seems there aren't many of your kind around, huh?" Lin Zhen started.

"You got it wrong, I am from the Demon Lion Clan, and there are many of us. The Nine-Headed Lion is an anomaly of the Demon Lions, just like how your Black Hole Beast is a mutation of the Fire Kirins."

"That's right, a rare Galaxy Beast, it should be strong. Since you've stepped out, let's begin!"

"Lin Zhen! You will pay for your arrogance!"

With Nine Spirit's roar, a strong stench of blood rushed forward!

His weapon was a long saber; its blade was dark and shiny. The unmatchable momentum came rushing as he slashed down. This was a sword skill from the Holy Land!

Lin Zhen sneered, holding the spear Landis horizontally: "Break!"

The tremendous collision sounded like thunder, exploding in the sky!

Nine Spirits retreated two steps, then sprung forward like stepping on a spring.

Lin Zhen's Star Power didn't have a significant advantage over Nine Spirits.

This seasoned Three Flowers Peak fighter's abilities were truly not to be underestimated. At least in terms of Star Power, Lin Zhen's advantage was extremely limited.

Nevertheless, after that blow, Lin Zhen finally acquired some assurance. As long as his opponent's Star Power didn't overpower him completely, Lin Zhen was not afraid. Besides, his spear Landis was a heavy weapon that gave him an advantage in close-quarters combat.

With a swing of his long spear, a familiar sensation returned: the spear tip bloomed into a multitude of peach blossoms, enveloping the key areas around Nine Spirits!

The intense fight started!

Nine Spirits' swordsmanship followed a strong and fierce route, but today he met his match in Lin Zhen.

Once the long spear was infused with metal element, its lethality was simply outrageous. In a face to face attack, Nine Spirits' Long Sword did not have a slight advantage. On the contrary, in the fierce collision after collision, he was at a disadvantage.

With Star Power slightly weaker, physical strength slightly weaker, and weapon slightly inferior, these factors combined left Nine Spirits with no chance to turn the situation around.

Clang, clang, clang, clang ~~~!!!

Sparks flying like in a metal forge, Nine Spirits was constantly retreating amid continuous head-on bombarding. His arms and weapons could barely take such intense hits anymore.

Perceiving the grim situation, Nine Spirit gritted his teeth and brought forth his most formidable knife skill!

The Battle Blade's Radiance~!

The vast knife-shadows turned into cold stars, their points of brilliant radiance twinkling, the three blossoming flowers above his head, all his energy and spirit converging into a single slash, slashing down!

Witnessing Nine Spirits resort to his last trump card, Lin Zhen's figure spun around, his spear tracing an enigmatic trajectory.

Memories belonging to Landis surfaced, and Lin Zhen employed the Ancient Spear Skill he had just mastered.

Spring Earth!

A warm breeze, formed by the fire element, blew past. In Nine Spirits' eyes, it seemed as if spring had arrived, everything was reviving and the earth was brimming with vitality!

This was not an illusion, it was a true resurgence of vitality.

Because the earth appeared as if it had its life, sharp stone pillars shot up toward the sky one after another, forming ground spikes that struck mightily toward Nine Spirits!

The countless blade lights were exhausted amid the assault of these ground spikes, whereas Lin Zhen's spear still formed a straight line, directly covering his chest location, and charged forward undeterred!

Shadows of death hung over Nine Spirits' head. When Lin Zhen deployed this spear attack, he knew that he definitively could not block it.

With an overwhelmingly powerful spear technique in conjunction with the attack of the earth element, he had never seen such a strong spear technique while he was in the Holy Land. He also had no idea where Lin Zhen learned it from.

At the brink of life and death, Nine Spirits was also resolute enough, directly infusing his long knife with all his Star Power to rigidly counter Lin Zhen's strike. Unsuccessful in blocking, a huge lion head was conjured and ferociously bit into Lin Zhen's spear!

With a thunderous boom, the lion head was shattered by Lin Zhen, his body was thrown out, severely injured, yet, he indeed preserved a single thread of life.

A wounded lion is very dangerous too, the ferocious air of Nine Spirits was elicited, rolling on the ground, his body transformed into a huge Demon Lion, one after the another lion heads grew out, nine in total.

One already had its eyes closed, that was the one wounded just now, but he still had eight other lion heads that he could use, the huge head rocked, biting down towards Lin Zhen, one after another!

"Lin Zhen! I'll eat you alive!"

Fighting with the Galaxy Beast's body, this was Nine Spirit's last resort.

Lin Zhen laughed loudly, "This is ridiculous! Though a Nine-headed Lion is rare, it is dreaming if it wants to fight against me. I don't need to use a spear today, yet I can still dispose of you!"

With a dash of his body, a multicoloured Kirin appeared.

Everyone's eyes widened in astonishment because they saw, it was surprisingly not the Black Hole Beast from before. At the very least, the color was not the same.

This Kirin was already in its mature period, its body even larger and more majestic, with Lin Zhen's sky-shaking roar, a faint golden light enveloped its body, making its scales seem like they were gilded.

Nearby, Lin Zhen roared and rushed over, disregarding the direct attacks of several lion heads, his head was lowered, the two stag-like horns suddenly shook, directly overturning Nine Spirits.

With a roar, he pounced, locking his jaws around Nine Spirits' throat!

Nine Spirits frantically gnawed at Lin Zhen, but the gold scales' defense was absurdly strong, his gnawing was like a child playing house, it could do him no damage.

On the contrary, Lin Zhen's chokehold was making him weaker and weaker, he could only struggle fiercely in an attempt to break free.

The two giant beasts let out earth-shaking roars, rolling and roaring on the ground, fur flying off, and blood splattering. This raw and fight was absolutely heart-stopping to watch.

The Nine-headed Lion transformation was very powerful, but he was unlucky today, he encountered his nemesis, Lin Zhen.

The Nine-headed Lion was also a variant of the lion while the lion belonged to the Beast Clan. Among all creatures of the Beast Clan, the most formidable creature was the Kirin.

Among the Scaly Dragon Clan, the Dragons are kings, among birds the Phoenix, among beasts, there exist no Galaxy Beasts that could surpass the Kirin.

The Kirin's body is born for fighting, with sharp teeth and claws, a mouth bigger and more terrifying than other beasts, scales that protect its body, horns on its head, its whole body covered with weapons. Not to mention Lin Zhen is a mutation of the four-element Kirin, and also has a golden aura, making it virtually impervious to any attack!

The fierce gnawing fight lasted for five minutes, the earth practically tossed about under their fighting. Nine Spirits was finally exhausted from Lin Zhen's relentless attacks, his body gradually weakened.

Lin Zhen's sharp teeth and claws left countless wounds on his body, practically taking his life. If the fight continued, he would undoubtedly die!

Watching as Nine Spirits was finished, the people from the Thunder and Lighting Clan could no longer hold back and were just about to rush up!

Lin Zhen roared, the Four Elements Flower rotated within him, earth, water, fire and wind surged, halting the members of the Thunder and Lightning Clan.

The giant head sensed the situation, flung Nine Spirits away, morphed back into a human form, raised a hand and a long rope shot up into the sky, binding Nine Spirits like a rice dumpling!

Beast Binding Soul Lock!

Nine Spirits' body, soul, all were bound by the Beast Binding Soul Lock!

"Keep a close eye on him, absolutely do not allow him to struggle. This is my war trophy, your clan leader's!"

Throwing Nine Spirits towards the group of the Fire Kirin, Lin Chuang and the others responded with a roar, immediately tore into them, pressed Nine Spirits dead down, erasing any chance of escape!

Chapter 792: Chapter 795: Capturing the Four Spirits! (Fourth Update)

By the time Guangdian and the others broke through Lin Zhen's earth, water, fire, and wind defenses, Jiuling had already been tightly captured by the people of the Fire Kirin, tied up like a dumpling, with no possibility of breaking free.

Guangdian's eyelids twitched slightly, not expecting Lin Zhen to be so strong that he could actually defeat the most powerful Jiuling.

It was fortunate that Jiuling went first because if the others had gone, the result would definitely not have been better.

"Lin Zhen, don't be too smug. You just defeated Jiuling, and all that you have now is just an illusion. Once we defeat you, everything you have will be gone."

Lin Zhen waved the Landis Spear: "Save such words and conserve your energy. I've never liked those who talk too much. If you have anything up your sleeve, use it."

"Fine, Lin Zhen, prepare to die."

Guangdian did not dare to get too close to Lin Zhen and instead called for his other three companions to join him.

The four of them encircled Lin Zhen in the center as they advanced.

"Hehe, a combined attack by the Four Sacred Beasts. It looks like I'll enjoy myself today."

Lin Zhen showed no fear in the face of the Three Flowers of the Four Great Sacred Lands and charged straight at Dao Sha on the right!

Dao Sha, a member of the White Tiger Clan, was previously very confident in himself, but after watching Lin Zhen's battle with Jiuling, that confidence had vanished.

Jiuling also used a blade and was even stronger than him, but he was severely beaten by Lin Zhen. With all this in perspective, Dao Sha would definitely not fare any better.

If this were a solo fight, Dao Sha would have definitely run away, but now he won't because he has his companions.

"Taishan!"

Dao Sha let out a loud roar, and Taishan, who was next to him, suddenly moved closer.

A large black shield appeared, blocking Lin Zhen's path of attack!

Lin Zhen flicked his long spear, and the golden Landis Spear rolled up wind and thunder, smashing heavily onto the shield!

The power of this spear strike was even greater than when he fought Jiuling. After a loud clang, Lin Zhen actually failed to break through!

Behind the shield, Taishan revealed himself, holding a huge shield in each of his hands.

The shields had intricate patterns and looked neither gold nor iron. Lin Zhen didn't know what material they were made of, but they managed to block his attack without any signs of damage.

Lin Zhen's eyes narrowed slightly: "Two shields made of tortoise shells, indeed quite sturdy."

Taishan's face darkened: "Lin Zhen, I hate it when people call me Turtle. You're going to pay for that remark today!"

"If you want payback, then be prepared to pay the price!"

Lin Zhen stopped talking and swung his spear again, charging at his opponents.

Guangdian and the Red Witch also began to attack from behind. Taishan was at the front, blocking Lin Zhen's attacks, while Dao Sha launched thunderous attacks from the side!

At first, Lin Zhen thought that there would be coordination problems when the four of them fought together, but surprisingly, their combined assault was exponentially more powerful.

Qinglong's weapon was a halberd, the Red Witch's weapon was a burning whip.

Dao Sha's weapon was a long saber, and Taishan's weapon was two shields made from tortoise shells.

They had practiced together countless times, and their movements were well-coordinated. Their offense and defense were integrated, they provided support to one another during attacks and came to each other's rescue when needed.

Their cooperation was seamless.

Taishan, the tactical core of the group, might have a large body, but he always appeared where he was needed most, using his two incredibly sturdy shields to block Lin Zhen's powerful attacks.

Lin Zhen's Planet Fall and Constant Star Fall couldn't even break through Taishan's defense.

With Taishan's cover, the other three could attack freely, and they managed to gain the upper hand!

With weapons raining down around him and the relentless onslaught, Lin Zhen was caught off guard!

"Hahaha! Lin Zhen, did you think that defeating Jiuling meant you could take on the rest of us? You're too naive."

"The four of us come from the Earth Class of the Freedom City Holy Land, and we have been working together for tens of thousands of years. Lin Zhen, your skills are still far from enough!"

Guangdian finally found an opportunity. While Lin Zhen was blocking Dao Sha's attack, Guangdian struck with his halberd lightning-fast!

Consecutive attacks at the speed of light, more than 8,000 strikes, all focused on the same point!

Lin Zhen felt a pain in his waist, he was injured!

Being injured in this kind of fight was very dangerous. The opponents capitalized on their advantage and soon, Lin Zhen sustained several injuries.

Although they weren't fatal, they were a sign of impending defeat.

"No good! I need to break Taishan's shield defense; otherwise, I cannot counterattack."

At this point, Lin Zhen could no longer hold back and had to break through the turtle shell that was constantly blocking him.

"Four Spirits combination attack ends now!"

Lin Zhen activated the Planet Sphere from his main body and launched it.

A stream of light shot out from Lin Zhen's hand and hit Taishan's shield directly!

Taishan saw the shooting light coming and instinctively used his left shield to defend himself.

However, he didn't know the secret of the Planet Sphere. It may have been small, but it had the weight of a star!

Taishan felt an irresistible force attacking him, and the shield hummed and automatically retracted into his body. He was completely overwhelmed by the Planet Sphere!

With a boom, a human-shaped pit appeared beneath Taishan, and he sank into the ground.

Once Taishan was disabled, the pressure on Lin Zhen was considerably reduced.

With no more obstacles, he could finally counterattack.

As the Red Witch beside him tried to help Taishan by attacking, Lin Zhen turned around, and the Landis spear wielded an immense power. It was Summer Stream Fire!

The nature of the Vermilion Bird is fire, it can be also called a firebird, and it's only second to the Phoenix in terms of fire manipulation.

Seeing Lin Zhen's spear ushering in flames, the Red Witch sneered, "Lin Zhen, you're simply showing off in front of an expert!"

"Really? Unfortunately, my axe is quite big!"

"Fall down!"

The two streams of flame collided. Under the influence of the Four Elements Flower, a bright blue flame swept along like a torrent, swallowing the Red Witch in an instant.

The spear followed the flames, aiming straight for the chest of the Red Witch!

Feeling as if she were in a furnace, the Red Witch tried her best to resist. Sensing Lin Zhen's spear approaching, she swiftly locked the spear tip with both hands on her whip.

"Save me!"

Seeing the Red Witch in danger, Thunder and Dao Sha both attempted to save her.

Boom!

The Four Elements Flower once again unleashed its power. Inside the swirling elements, Lin Zhen's true body emerged.

Lin Zhen had been waiting for this moment for a long time. As long as he could defeat another person, he would secure his victory in this battle. This time difference would be gained by using his true body.

The energy elements were just a blindfold to prevent anyone from discovering the secret of his true body and avatar. His true body appeared within the energy elements, which could only be seen by the people fighting alongside him.

In Lin Zhen's plan, it did not matter if they saw it.

His true body swallowed a Divine Power Pill, and his Star Power skyrocketed to 71,120,000!

Unleashing 100% of his Star Power, after taking the elixir, his true body's combat power was almost on par with his avatar's.

His true body blocked the Lightning's assault with the flicker of a lotus, and condensed a Sword Gang in his hand, swinging it!

Senluo Sword Skill!

This supreme skill from the Sacred Place of the God-locking Platform shattered Dao Sha's attack in a single strike, cutting off one of his arms!

Dao Sha never dreamed that a second Lin Zhen would appear during the battle. Caught off guard, he was struck by Lin Zhen's true body. Before he could even scream, the true body used a Constant Star Fall attack, silencing Dao Sha's cry.

Beast Binding Soul Lock, bind!

The cooperation between Lin Zhen's true body and avatar was even better than their opponents. A Beast Binding Soul Lock immediately bound Dao Sha tightly and flung him towards the Fire Kirin Clan's camp.

"Catch him!"

"Nice!"

Lin Chuang and the others roared as they rushed over to pin down a struggling Dao Sha.

As the elemental power had not yet dissipated, the true body had already vanished, returning to the world within the avatar to continue cultivating.

Making effective use of his true body's single strike, Lin Zhen's Star Power burst outwards, directly knocking the still resisting Red Witch flying.

As Thunder attempted to pursue from behind, Lin Zhen turned around and unleashed an Autumn Wind. The Wind Element howled, and together with his spear, he struck Thunder with a powerful blow, sending him flying far away.

Taking one step forward, Lin Zhen followed up, shaking his spear and smashing it towards the Red Witch!

Seeing her impending doom, the Red Witch felt a chill in her heart. She looked at Lin Zhen with a pitiful expression, hoping he would show mercy and spare her because she was a beauty.

Lin Zhen sneered, and whipped her neck with his spear, knocking her unconscious.

The third Beast Binding Soul Lock was used, and the Red Witch was tied up tightly.

"Catch her! The third one!"

After capturing the Red Witch, Lin Zhen launched a fierce attack on Thunder, who had just recovered his strength.

This time, Lin Zhen finally vented his anger, continuously attacking the once-dominant Thunder, leaving him no chance to fight back.

The spear technique of Landis was indeed incredibly powerful, and the final Winter's Chill attack carried the Ice Element, causing intense freezing air to effectively restrict Thunder's speed.

Under the seal of the Ice Element, Thunder's speed advantage could no longer be utilized. In less than two minutes, Lin Zhen had hit him with thousands of thrusts and strikes. Thunder's form was nearly unrecognizable before he finally fell in disgrace.

Lin Zhen showed no mercy, stepping on Thunder's back and producing the fourth Beast Binding Soul Lock, tying him up like a hog.

"Catch him! The fourth one!"

Lin Chuang excitedly pounced on Thunder, and the other young Fire Kirin Clan members who worked with him had become skilled in their movements. They even found some metal ropes, tied up Thunder so tightly that not even his eyes were visible anymore.

After capturing Thunder, the battle was essentially over. Lin Zhen walked to the edge of the deep pit, recalling the Planet Sphere, and with a force of gravity, Taishan, who was on the verge of death, was pulled up.

"Hehe! The Four Spirits working together and still lacking the power to fight under the Planet? You lot are nothing but show-offs in front of me!"

With the last Beast Binding Soul Lock, Taishan was also securely tied up. Lin Zhen personally dragged him back to the Fire Kirin Clan's people.

Throwing Taishan to Lin Chuang and the others, Lin Zhen spoke to a Longevity Warrior who had been audaciously filming in the distance, "Saint Master, thank you for these ropes. I'll repay you generously in the future!"

Chapter 793: Chapter 796: Diamond Level Spiritual Power

After capturing Taishan, this battle could be considered perfectly concluded.

Lin Zhen had once again disappointed all the people of the Qin Kingdom. No one had expected that ten thousand Longevity Warriors, ten Three Flowers Warriors, and five Holy Land Three Flowers Warriors at the peak stage wouldn't be able to take Lin Zhen down and were instead all defeated by him in one fell swoop.

Ten Three Flowers Warriors were killed, five Holy Land Three Flowers Warriors were captured, and more than half of the ten thousand Longevity Warriors were killed, with the rest fleeing.

The intense encirclement operation came to an end, and Lin Zhen emerged with a complete victory.

From Lin Zhen's words, it seemed that this operation was targeting him by National Master Qian Tong, and the grudge between the two might not be over yet.

After the scene dispersed, Lin Zhen brought the captives back to the entrance of the Fire Palace.

With a glance as sharp as a knife, Lin Zhen suddenly took out a few pieces of golden paper.

With a wave of his pen, he quickly wrote down some words and then stamped it with the Kirin Golden Seal of the Clan Leader.

"Lin Chuang, read it out loud!"

Lin Chuang walked over and took a look. His excitement showed, and he began to read aloud.

"Clan Leader Lin Zhen's order, our clan's three elders, Elder Li, Elder Wang, and Elder Sima, harbored ill intentions during the battle between the Clan Leader and the external enemies. They are not worthy of their positions as elders. They will be expelled from the Fire Kirin Clan and will never be allowed to return!"

With a flick of his hand, the golden paper fell in front of Elder Li and the others.

The faces of Elder Li and the others turned ashen. From the moment Lin Zhen triumphed in battle, they knew that they would most likely not have a good outcome and hoped that Lin Zhen would spare them. However, they didn't expect Lin Zhen to be so decisive at a young age and immediately drive them away without giving any leeway.

They looked around, hoping someone would plead for them, but none of the people around had any intention of doing so.

The way Lin Zhen effortlessly crushed his enemies had brought a tremendous shock to the Fire Kirin Clan. They already highly acknowledged this new Clan Leader, and of course, they would not offend Lin Zhen for the sake of these has-beens.

Moreover, it seemed that pleading for mercy would be useless anyway.

With a sigh, Elder Li and the others admitted defeat. They had been in the clan for hundreds of thousands of years but could not compete with Lin Zhen, a young man who had just taken office for less than a day.

Without any further explanation, they packed up their things and left.

Their names would be completely removed from the Fire Kirin Clan.

An elder of the Fire Kirin Clan was an influential figure, but now Lin Zhen wielded absolute power, and with a single command, he could expel them. This was the power of a Clan Leader.

When Elder Li and the others left the Kirin Clan, a cheer erupted within the Fire Kirin Clan.

Young people, in particular, showed a high level of support for Lin Zhen. They firmly believed that Lin Zhen would lead the Fire Kirin Clan to glory.

The grand hall of the Fire Palace was the essence of the Fire Kirin Clan for billions of years. The palace was constructed from the cooled core of volcanic magma. This magma core not only insulated it from the heat of the outside world but also kept out cold air, maintaining the warmth of spring inside the hall.

After receiving some key figures in the clan, these Fire Kirins also swore their loyalty to Lin Zhen. This process lasted three days before they had some free time.

However, these three days were not wasted, as Lin Zhen finally gained full control of the Fire Kirin Clan.

Lin Chuang was appointed by Lin Zhen as a temporary aide to help him with some affairs.

"Clan Leader, it's about time to deal with the prisoners. They're stubborn and unrepentant, even expecting someone to come to their rescue."

Lin Zhen snorted coldly, "They're too reckless. They know I won't kill them easily. Instead, they focus solely on protecting their Spiritual Consciousness Sea with their Spiritual Power, refusing to eat anything, thinking that I will not have any way to deal with them."

Lin Zhen heaved a long sigh. In the past three days, he visited the prison every night to try to communicate with Nine Spirits and the others but to no avail. They remained passive, allowing Lin Zhen to do whatever he pleased, as long as their Spiritual Consciousness Sea remained intact.

They all hailed from the same school and had learned a secret technique called Spiritual Condensation from the Holy Land of Freedom City.

This technique allowed them to solidify their Spiritual Power, unable to attack others and making it virtually impossible for others of the same level to break through their defenses.

For three consecutive days, Lin Zhen had not succeeded in using the Soul Lock a single time.

However, he decided not to let this matter drag on any longer today.

"Lin Chuang, close the palace doors. I need to rest for a few days and will not see anyone during this time."

"Understood, Clan Leader. I'll do it right away."

Lin Chuang left the grand hall of the Fire Palace and went to the entrance to inform the guards.

The palace doors closed, leaving Lin Zhen alone inside.

He opened the Dimensional Universe and connected the images of the underground prison.

Nine Spirits, Light Electricity, Red Witch, Dao Sha, and Taishan were held captive in separate cells, tightly bound by the Beast Binding Soul Lock which restrained their souls and wore down their wills.

Lin Zhen's purpose in capturing these people was clear: to put a Soul Lock on all of them.

These five could be said to be extremely powerful. If Lin Zhen hadn't gained a clone, his original body would not have been a match for any one of them without using Divine Power Pills.

Such Holy Land Three Flowers warriors had unlimited potential, and if they were lucky enough, they might even take a step further in the future.

Had it not been for the Beast Binding Soul Lock, Lin Zhen wouldn't have had such an idea, as these people were extremely difficult to put a Soul Lock on.

However, with the Beast Binding Soul Lock continuously eroding their will and Spiritual Power, Lin Zhen believed it was necessary to do so.

"To put a Soul Lock on them, my current level of Spiritual Power is still lacking, but after such a long time of digesting the medicinal effects, I can absorb Spiritual Strength Pills again in two months."

Turning away all the guests, Lin Zhen began a new round of cultivation in the Fire Palace.

"Master, someone in the Dimensional Universe wants to add you as a friend; his name is Qian Tong."

Lin Zhen, who was preparing for cultivation, was taken aback; he hadn't expected Qian Tong to add him as a friend. What could they possibly have to discuss?

"Accept it." Lin Zhen wanted to see what tricks Qian Tong was up to.

Once the request was accepted, Qian Tong appeared on the screen.

"Saint Master, you're truly a rare guest. What can I do for you?"

With a cold expression, Qian Tong calmly said to Lin Zhen, "Lin Zhen, let's cut to the chase. I'm offering you two choices."

"Oh! Tell me!"

"First, we end all contact with each other, owing nothing to one another."

"And the second one?"

"Secondly, I use all my resources to completely and utterly destroy you, your race, your woman, and your family in the New World!"

Lin Zhen's face darkened instantly: "Saint Master, you must not know what kind of person Lin Zhen is. Every person who has threatened me has lost the opportunity to speak again."

Qian Tong was silent for a while before slowly saying, "I'm serious, Lin Zhen! Angering a Saint Master is not a wise choice. You should know that there's nothing money can't buy in the Original World. If it can't be bought, then you just don't have enough money. And I happen to be someone who has more than enough money."

Lin Zhen took a deep breath: "Qian Tong, better safeguard your current wealth because you'll lose everything soon."

"Lin Zhen, you'll regret this!"

Qian Tong calmly cut off the communication channel from the Dimensional Universe, remaining eerily composed.

Lin Zhen secretly sounded the alarm in his heart. Turning down Qian Tong meant a complete rupture, and he couldn't help but be cautious about Qian Tong's revenge.

"Instead of waiting for you to come after me, I'll just destroy all of Qian Tong's properties in the Qin Kingdom without leaving a trace!"

Lin Zhen made up his mind in secret. Some things had to be prepared for beforehand.

While his main body cultivated Spiritual Power, his avatar was comprehending the stone tablet, not neglecting either task.

For two whole months, Lin Zhen never set foot outside, taking the Frost Mist Pill every day to resolve the medicinal effect.

Two months later, he finally resolved all the remaining side effects of the Spiritual Power Pills in his body and could take more medication.

Lin Zhen's main body opened the Space Ring and took out the Spiritual Power Pills that had long been stored inside.

His Spiritual Power was currently at the Dark Gold Middle Stage, with fifty percent of it transformed into Dark Gold.

If it were anyone else, it would be impossible for them to advance from the Dark Gold Middle Stage to the Late Stage without thousands of years of hard cultivation.

But for Lin Zhen, it was simply a matter of taking a pill.

All five Holy Land Three Flowers Warriors had Dark Gold Stage Spiritual Power levels. This was a hurdle for them, making it difficult for ordinary Three Flowers Warriors to break through their Spiritual Power levels. At least, Lin Zhen hadn't seen any Three Flowers Warriors with Diamond Level Spiritual Power yet.

Adjusting his condition, Lin Zhen swallowed the Spiritual Power Pill in one gulp.

The black hole appeared, the pill disappeared, and all that remained turned into nutrients to upgrade his Spiritual Consciousness Sea.

With the injection of the pill's power, Lin Zhen's Spiritual Power underwent an astonishing transformation!

Originally, the Spiritual Consciousness Sea within his body was made up of gold and dark gold colors, each occupying half of the territory. Lin Zhen had been preparing for this Spiritual Power breakthrough for a long time and felt that the pills he had prepared could at least advance him to the Late Stage, if not the Peak.

However, he didn't expect this breakthrough to be so fierce!

Inside the Spiritual Power sphere, the Divine Infant suddenly opened its eyes!

Feeling the arrival of the powerful medicinal effects, the Divine Infant actually began to actively absorb the power!

The amount of power Lin Zhen had prepared to break through to the Late Stage wasn't enough to satisfy the Divine Infant's absorption!

Fortunately, Lin Zhen was well-prepared, taking the second dose of the medication.

The Divine Infant acted like a funnel, the spear in its hand shining brightly. Power flowed from all directions, converging on the spearhead.

"The power still isn't enough, let's go for the third time!" Lin Zhen watched as the Divine Infant became a pill-eating machine and, in desperation, consumed all the Spiritual Power Pills he had stored, wanting to see how far he could progress.

This time, the power of the pills finally met the Divine Infant's requirements. Its body and the Spiritual Power sphere had their gold Spiritual Power gradually fade away, turning entirely dark gold!

Eighty percent… Ninety percent!

Ninety-five percent… Ninety-nine percent!

One hundred percent! Peak of Dark Gold!

"Hiss~!"

A dazzling light emerged from the tip of the spear, and the final concentration of the power of the pill emitted the radiance of a diamond!

Chapter 794: Chapter 797 Annihilation!

Advancing spiritual power from the Dark Gold middle stage to the Diamond early stage is a qualitative leap.

If a martial artist's star power is their primary combat power, then their spiritual power is the secondary combat power.

Even, if your spiritual power is strong enough, the opponent's star power won't stand a chance. A mental shock would be enough to end the fight.

Of course, some spiritual defense treasures can counteract mental shocks, which is why the role of spiritual power doesn't seem that grand.

However, no everyday spiritual defense weapon could withstand the spiritual power of Lin Zhen at the Diamond level, unless it's a spiritual defense treasure.

But where would one find a spiritual defense treasure?

At least so far, Lin Zhen hadn't seen anyone possessing a spiritual defense treasure.

So anyone with spiritual power inferior to Lin Zhen virtually stands powerless before him.

Advancing to Diamond level spiritual power has significantly increased Lin Zhen's strength.

After advancing, Lin Zhen didn't rush to the prison immediately because he felt that he was about to have a small breakthrough, reaching World King Level 8.

After cultivating for about half a month in the Fire Palace, Lin Zhen finally broke through to Level Eight World King.

At Level Eight World King, his star power officially reached fifty million!

Now it has almost been three months since he left the Holy Land and it seemed unlikely that he would advance to Level Nine World King before he returns.

During these three months, Lin Zhen's incarnation had comprehended the fourth diagram of Shadowless Step and nearly half of the fifth diagram.

Completing the fifth diagram, which contains a hundred footprints, in less than half a year would be impossible.

Leaving the Fire Palace, Lin Zhen headed to the underground prison.

Passing the winding stairs, the underground prison was located under the volcano behind the Fire Palace, nearly ten thousand meters underground.

The first person Lin Zhen wanted to see when he arrived at the jail was Nine Spirits.

Nine Spirits was tied up in a jail cell, not struggling but staying calm every day, because the more he struggled, the tighter the Beast Binding Soul Lock would be. Staying calm, on the other hand, wouldn't cause him harm.

He was hoping that someone would come to rescue him, or perhaps one day Lin Zhen would be killed, and he might have a chance of being released. As a martial artist, he had enough time and patience to wait for that day to come.

Because he had noticed that Lin Zhen seemed not to want to kill them, which made him feel safe, he would eat, drink and zone out when bored. After all, warriors of the Three Flowers stage would not die if they weren't killed.

However, the arrival of Lin Zhen disrupted all of this.

"Nine Spirits, there's no way out for you now. Accept your fate!"

Without wasting any words, Lin Zhen directly launched a mental shock. A Diamond sparkle broke through the opponent's Spiritual Condensation, and the Soul Lock rushed in!

Nine Spirits screamed in agony and tried to struggle to get rid of it, but by this time, how could Lin Zhen give him a chance to rebound? The Soul Lock force gradually increased, and under the pressure of the Beast Binding Soul Lock, Nine Spirits had no way to dodge.

In less than three minutes, the Soul Lock was completely applied.

The Beast Binding Soul Lock disappeared and transformed into a light ring, lingering on the exterior of Nine Spirits' Spiritual Consciousness Sea.

A martial artist who is Soul Locked has one chance to break free – that is during the stage of realm breakthrough. This is exactly what the Beast Binding Soul Lock is for. Even if a Soul Locked person breaks through, they would still be under the control of their master. If the Soul Locked person tries to resist, their Spiritual Consciousness Sea would shatter, killing their Divine Infant, causing them to become an idiot.

Unless it's someone like Lin Zhen, whose Divine Infant possesses weapons, they would be able to break free from the binding of the Beast Binding Soul Lock.

Unfortunately, Nine Spirits was not capable of this. After being controlled, he couldn't even think of resistance, and he becomes Lin Zhen's most loyal servant.

Having Nine Spirits as an assistant made Lin Zhen happy. Nine Spirits' strength was no less than his own.

In fact, if the original body didn't take the Divine Power Pills, it wouldn't even stand a chance against Nine Spirits and others. These Holy Land Three Flowers at the peak stage had a combat power that could only be described as formidable.

If it were not for the near-death skill possessed by Lin Zhen, even his incarnation might find it challenging to defeat Nine Spirits. His Nine-Headed Bite was practically unresistible, but unfortunately, he met Lin Zhen, who was impervious to sword and spear, which led to his miserable fate.

"Nine Spirits vow to follow the master to death!" Nine Spirits expressed his loyalty to Lin Zhen.

"Alright, recover from your wounds first. You will be needed soon."

Nine Spirits was injured during the fight with Lin Zhen and didn't have a chance to recover. Now that he was one of his own, Lin Zhen gave him elixir to aid in his recovery quickly.

Nine Spirits accepted the elixir and followed Lin Zhen to the other cells.

Controlling Taishan and Dao Sha was easy. When they got to the room of Light Electric, Nine Spirits held Light Electric's neck and directly ordered him: "Be good and don't move. Let the master take control of you, and you will realize that this is for your own good."

Lin Zhen smiled and used the same method to control Light Electric as well.

When it was Red Witch's turn, she tried to seduce Lin Zhen, only to be beaten up by her defected companions and quickly quieted down. Lin Zhen easily took control of her as well.

If it weren't for the Beast Binding Soul Lock, controlling these five people would not be an easy task. But with this tool at hand, even more could be easily controlled.

Having subdued five peak Three Flowers realm Holy Land Warriors, Lin Zhen finally managed a sigh of relief.

There was no doubting the combat prowess of these five, all having been in the Three Flowers stage for years. There was a chance they could provide him with a significant surprise and breakthrough anytime.

After letting the five rest for five days to fully recover, Lin Zhen issued an order to them.

They were to go to Da Qin Empire and wipe out all the assets that Qian Tong had there. Should anyone resist, they were to be killed without mercy!

The assets in the Qin Kingdom could provide Qian Tong with a continuous flow of money. Lin Zhen did not want to let him keep accumulating wealth. In the Original World, wealth equals power, so cutting off his financial sources would undoubtedly be a decisive blow.

A significant event occurred in Qin.

The five that initially sought to besiege Lin Zhen had attacked the National Master's Mansion!

Many guests of the National Master and Qian Tong resided there, including Holy Land Warriors at the Three Flowers Stage. But against the assault of the Nine Spirits and the others, they stood no chance.

Putting the other four's performance aside, Nine Spirits alone was more than enough to handle it.

In the sky manifested the image of a giant nine-headed lion with its nine massive mouths opening, engaging in an endless devouring.

Unlike Lin Zhen's Black Hole Beast which swallowed whole, Nine Spirits' nine heads bit and chewed around. Smaller targets were swallowed in one gulp, and larger targets were surrounded and attacked by multiple heads. Mostly, the destruction of the National Master's Mansion could be attributed to Nine Spirits.

In mid-air, creating thunderstorms at will, Nine Spirits vented the ill feelings they had for Lin Zhen. The guests of Qian Tong were scattering about in disarray.

As for the other four warriors, their powers were nearly on par with Nine Spirits – potentially just slightly weaker. They charged through the chaos, leaving bodies all over the place.

After wiping out everyone in the mansion, they went on to dismantle the businesses which were under Qian Tong's name. Every shop, medicine store, and alchemy room owned by Qian Tong were razed to the ground, reduced to ruins.

Some people had tried to stop them during the massacre, but ordinary people couldn't hold back the Holy Land Three Flowers. All those who dared to stand in their way were killed.

People requested the royal family to send troops, but the response from the Emperor of the Qin Kingdom was that this was a dispute among Holy Land Warriors; the royal family had no authority to interfere.

Everyone knew who the Nine Spirits and the others represented. Qian Tong had sought trouble with Lin Zhen several times, and it was only reasonable for Lin Zhen to strike back.

To make a move against Lin Zhen, neither ordinary martial artists nor the royal family were qualified. There was a clear distinction between Holy Land Warriors and non-Holy Land Warriors.

Although Qian Tong was the National Master, his more crucial identity lay in being a Holy Land Warrior from Freedom City's Holy Land.

Without royal intervention, the people of Qin were unable to rescue Qian Tong's industries and could only watch the Nine Spirits and the others raze them to the ground.

After the killings and the lootings, none of Qian Tong's household – disciples, servants, and families – were left. Their chance of revenge in the short run had been obliterated.

Faced with such a brutal act, Qin's people were terrified.

They hated Lin Zhen, but their fear of him gradually grew stronger.

This guy was like a cockroach that refused to die. The more you hit him, the stronger he got. They couldn't stop him when he marched into the Holy Land, nor could they hold back his ascension to become the Fire Kirin Clan leader. Qian Tong, as the National Master, was a mighty figure with his small army of elite households. But Lin Zhen had annihilated all of them.

With the Nine Spirits and the other four under his command, Lin Zhen didn't even need to get his hands dirty. No one could cause trouble for him now, as he sat ruling over the Fire Kirin Clan.

Incidentally, an anti-Lin organization, that had spoken ill of Lin Zhen the most while hiding in Qin, was located by one of Lin Zhen's subordinates.

Disrespecting Holy Land Warriors carried its repercussions. But most Holy Land Warriors maintained an aloof demeanor, preferring not to stoop to the level of non-Holy Land Warriors.

However, Lin Zhen was different. The people of Qin didn't make a good impression on him, thus he ordered this operation specially.

The group was a band of mercenaries. Some even had prior encounters with Lin Zhen's subordinate before. They were traced to the Dimensional Universe and were killed to the last man!

When they saw the line of severed heads flying across the sky, the voices on the Qin forum slandering Lin Zhen diminished for the first time.

The truth about the incident regarding the Divine Punishment Star wasn't Lin Zhen's fault. Since they were enemies, a fight was inevitable. The people of Qin were just having a hard time accepting it.

The deeper reason was that Lin Zhen, this bastard, was incredibly petty, even picking on the netizens who denounced him.

With the Dimensional Universe in effect, people could vent freely, but if the powerful sought to track you down, you could easily be found by tracing back from within the Dimensional Universe. It was like the universe's real-name registration system.

Second and third!

In the following two months, nothing else was done by the crew except going around finding those who had been the loudest in condemning Lin Zhen. When they found them, they killed without question!

Swift justice!

Three months later, the voices cursing Lin Zhen within Qin finally died down.

A Holy Land Warrior, a seventh-grade alchemist, the leader of the Fire Kirin Clan – who dared to insult him!

As winter arrived in the Heavenly Ridge, after a blizzard, the temperature plummeted to minus forty degrees.

The door of the Fire Palace creaked open, and Lin Zhen walked out.

As the gate opened, a wave of heat accompanied by a faint starlight gushed out, causing the surrounding cold air to retreat. The clash of cold and hot air currents formed a visible layer of air.

Wiggling his hands and feet after sitting for a long time, Lin Zhen had a hint of joy on his face.

Unexpectedly, just before returning to the Holy Land, he had worked hard to digest the power of the medicine and finally gained the opportunity to devour it, promoting his realm to the Level Nine World King.

His Star Power increased by two million, reaching a total of 52 million.

This was not the data of a World King, nor was it the data of a basic Longevity Stage warrior, it was comparable to a decent Three Flowers Realm warrior.

Looking around, the Fire Kirins didn't seem to be coping well with the recent drop in temperature due to the lack of volcanic eruptions, preferring to stay inside.

Lin Zhen had arranged the Four Spirits, such as Guang and Dian, to guard the perimeter of the volcano, becoming the secret protective force of the Kirin Clan.

After leaving the palace, Lin Chuang was already waiting outside.

"Chief, our tribe's population has increased by almost one level recently which is unprecedented. I've heard the news that the new Fire Kirins came because they hold you in high esteem."

With a hint of excitement on his face, Lin Chuang knew the Fire Kirin Clan's population had been scarce, and their gradual growth was truly thanks to Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen nodded slightly, pleased with the thriving development of the Fire Kirin Clan.

"Remember what I told you, gather the elite within the clan for training and don't slack off. Strive to have more members entering the Holy Land next time it opens. A race cannot develop without the support of Holy Land Warriors."

"I understand, Chief. But isn't entering the Holy Land based on race recommendations? We previously only had one slot."

Lin Zhen smiled and replied, "As you said, that was previously. Holy Land Heaven Class students also have recommendation qualifications. The newly promoted top eight students will have recommendation slots – the eighth-ranked student has one slot, and the first-ranked student has eight slots. I'll recommend suitable candidates when the time comes."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chuang's eyes sparkled, and as a Longevity Stage peak warrior, he too longed to enter the Holy Land.

Lin Zhen patted his shoulder, "Practice hard, and if you can reach Three Flowers before the next Holy Land assessment, I'll recommend you."

Lin Chuang nodded without ever doubting Lin Zhen's ability to enter the Heaven Class.

In his eyes, the Chief was omnipotent, and entering the Heaven Class would be a piece of cake.

"Alright, there haven't been any major issues in the clan recently, so I'll be returning to the Holy Land."

It had been ten months since Lin Zhen returned to the clan, and it was time for him to return to the Holy Land.

In these ten months, Lin Zhen had advanced to Level Eight World King, increased his Spiritual Power to Diamond Level, and was on the verge of understanding the fifth diagram of the Shadowless Step. His progress was unprecedented.

He also transformed the governance of the Kirin Clan, signing a medicine purchase agreement between the Alchemist Guild and the Kirin Clan, ensuring the supply of Elixirs for the clan's disciples.

The Fire Kirin Clan had no shortage of money, but their relationship with the Alchemist Guild had not been good in the past, and they couldn't access the best medicines. With Lin Zhen's arrival, the problem was solved. Lin Zhen himself was the Great Elder of the Alchemist Guild and had a great relationship with the president, not only guaranteeing the supply of medicines but also getting discounts.

With the availability of Elixirs, the Fire Kirin Clan would produce many talents in time.

Furthermore, the safety of the Fire Kirin Clan was no longer an issue. Lin Zhen left the Four Spirits, such as Guang and Dian, in the Fire Kirin Clan, ensuring they could contact him immediately if anything happened.

"Chief, rest assured, there are currently no problems in the clan."

Lin Zhen nodded, not informing the other members of the Fire Kirin Clan. With a thought, Nine Spirits appeared from the inner world.

After appearing, they did a roll on the spot, and a nine-headed lion, reminiscent of an ancient behemoth, emerged.

At first glance, Nine Spirits appeared to be an exceptionally large lion, but underneath its long mane, eight smaller heads were hidden, revealing their ferociousness only when necessary.

When he had to choose a mount, Lin Zhen hesitated between Nine Spirits and Guang Dian for a while, but eventually opted for the Nine Spirits.

Nine Spirits was slightly slower than Guang Dian, but much stronger. Besides, Guang Dian was one of the Four Spirits, and separating him from the Red Witch and others would be unwise.

Moreover, Nine Spirits' speed was already incredibly fast, reaching the sub-light speed limit, which was at least twice as fast as the Double-headed Demon Dragon.

With a light jump, Lin Zhen sat on the back of Nine Spirits.

The mane fluttered about, forming a protective layer. Nine Spirits said to Lin Zhen, "Master, once I can advance, I'll be able to reach the speed of light. By then, if you want to travel to the Original World, I can take you there."

"Hehe! Alright, I look forward to hitching a ride with you!"

With Lin Zhen's encouragement, Nine Spirits excitedly spread its claws, stepped onto the clouds, and headed towards Falling Star Lake.

Down on the ground, Lin Chuang waved. Guang and Dian, along with the other Four Spirits, released their Star Power from the four sides of the volcano to bid farewell to their master.

In the Holy Land, a group of warriors gathered in front of the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower.

After nearly a year of cultivation, the Holy Land had produced many individuals capable of successfully challenging the tower.

Among the newcomers, the highest-ranked person is Dongfang Yu, a student in the Heaven Class.

Currently, Dongfang Yu has passed the fifth level of the tower, ranking first among all newcomers.

However, Dongfang Yu doesn't seem too happy, because at this moment, a large list has been pulled out in front of the Holy Land.

This is the newcomer list, including not only Falling Star Lake Holy Land, but also Twin Trees Garden, Freedom City, and Soul Lock Platform.

This is the rule: after all newcomers enter the Holy Land, there will be a comprehensive comparison on the large list during the annual assessment, bringing together newcomers from all four Great Sacred Lands to see which one has the most outstanding talent.

You should know that this is facing all the Original World Holy Lands, and merely being ranked on this list is an enormous honor for the most elite Martial Artists.

There are huge rewards for the top ten on the list.

The reward is a very special thing, called the Divine Stone.

Many people in the Original World do not know about the Divine Stone, and it is not even considered currency, not allowing for circulation.

However, the more high-end Martial Artists are, the more they know about the usefulness of the Divine Stone.

The origin of the Divine Stone is the evolution of the Cosmic Crystal. When a Martial Artist surpasses the Three Flowers Realm, they will enter the God Transformation Realm.

Undergoing the God Transformation Realm, they will become a true Deity, symbolizing the metamorphosis from a Martial Artist to a Deity.

The God Transformation divides: the change in Spiritual Power is called Divine Sense Transformation.

The change in the inner world is called God Realm Transformation.

The change in the World Stone is called Divine Stone Transformation.

Upon completing the three stages of God Transformation, Martial Artists become real Deities, high above, looking down on all beings.

And the only place where Divine Stones are produced is in the realm of Divine Stone Transformation, only attainable by Martial Artists who have reached that stage. When the attempt to become a Deity fails, the Divine Stone will shatter, and the Martial Artist will lose the opportunity to become a Deity forever. Those with weaker strength will directly fall, while those with stronger strength may have a chance to retain their body and become a Demigod.

Each Divine Stone is a massive energy source, with one unit of Divine Stone weighing a thousand grams. Divine Stones can not only continuously supply the power of Martial Artists in the God Transformation Realm but can also unleash Divine Power. One unit of Divine Stone can directly double the fighting power of the Martial Artist!

Of course, few people are willing to use Divine Stones this way, as this thing is too rare, and only appears at the end of the God Transformation Realm, making it extremely precious.

It is not currency, but it has stronger purchasing power than currency.

The exchange rate between Divine Stones and Original World currency is one gram of Divine Stone for one hundred million!

One unit of Divine Stone is equivalent to one hundred billion in Original World currency!

And this thing is almost priceless, and the actual transaction price is definitely higher than this.

This time, the Four Great Sacred Lands are willing to offer Divine Stones as rewards, which excites the Martial Artists.

The overall first place will get two units of Divine Stones, and the remaining second to tenth places will all receive one unit of Divine Stones.

This kind of competition is only held in the first year when newcomers enter the academy, and each Holy Land attaches great importance to it.

Today is the day of the Holy Land assessment, and the crowd swarms in front of the Falling Star Lake's Thirty-Three Heaven Tower, as the assessment is about to begin.

Fifth Prince Jin Nuo's eyebrows are slightly furrowed as he watches the students continually attempting to challenge the tower.

Dongfang Yu goes first, but his performance is not great. Although he passed the fifth level, he failed quickly when he faced the Heavenly Lord in the sixth level.

According to previous experience, people who can break through the sixth level can firmly enter the top ten, and completing the fifth level also has the possibility to enter the top ten, but the completion level must be high.

The virtual characters inside the Thirty-Three Heaven Tower have life values. Killing all the opponents' life values is considered passing. Dongfang Yu only consumed 20% of the Heavenly Lord's life value, and it seems like there might be no hope for him.

Aiming for the top ten in the overall ranking, it would be a success if any one of the Four Great Sacred Lands could win three spots.

If they can only win two spots, then it is considered a failure.

But Dongfang Yu, who had high expectations from Jin Nuo, didn't perform well. This time, Falling Star Lake might not even be able to win two spots.

If they only win one spot, then it would be a disgrace.

One by one, the tower challenge scores come out. Another Heaven Class seed player, Sun Yidao, also reached the sixth level, with a completion rate of 33%!

Just barely completing one-third, this score might have had a chance to get the tenth place in previous years, but this year Jin Nuo shakes his head slightly, the situation is not optimistic!

At this time, news from the other Holy Lands keeps coming.

Yang Ye from Freedom City breaks through to the sixth level, with a completion rate of 51%, ranking first!

Zhang Jing from Twin Trees Garden breaks through to the sixth level, with a completion rate of 49%, ranking second!

Wu Qing from Soul Lock Platform breaks through to the sixth level, with a completion rate of 45%, ranking third!

Sun Yidao and Dongfang Yu have both dropped to the fourth and fifth positions, making Jin Nuo's complexion look even worse.

In the chat group where Jin Nuo was, Zhang Lang laughed and said, "Brother Jin Nuo, it seems like this time the results of Falling Star Lake aren't that great."

Jin Nuo replied, "Now we have two members in the top ten, ranking fourth and fifth, which has basically completed our mission. As long as we can secure one more, our results will be above the average level of the Four Great Sacred Lands."

With ten places allocated to the four Sacred Lands, the average is 2.5, and most of the time, they each have two or three places.

If any Sacred Land can get four places, it would be considered exceptional.

Twin Trees Garden once took six places, which was the highest record in history, but none of the other Sacred Lands ended up empty-handed, and they all managed to get some places.

Zhang Lang chuckled: "It seems like Brother Jin Nuo is confident, but be careful! Whether it's our Freedom City, Twin Trees Garden, or Soul Lock Platform, there are still strong ones who haven't come up yet."

Jin Nuo, of course, understood this, and it was the main reason why he was worried that Dongfang Yu and Sun Yidao wouldn't hold onto their top ten positions.

But at this moment, he couldn't show any weakness, and Jin Nuo's expression remained unchanged: "We also have elites who haven't come up yet."

"Haha, I know, the Fallen Angel – Mitchell, right? But as far as I know, Mitchell is out traveling and I don't know if he'll make it back for this competition, so be careful not to face any accidents."

At this time, Fang Fei, the fourth sister of Twin Trees Garden, interrupted and said, "No matter how you compete, you won't have as many places as our Twin Trees Garden. Dare you to bet?"

Neither Jin Nuo nor Zhang Lang were willing to bet with Fang Fei.

Twin Trees Garden was the most mysterious and historically the strongest among the Four Great Sacred Lands. They held the most records for taking first place and also had the highest number of allocated places.

Seeing that no one wanted to bet with her, Fang Fei stopped talking.

Zhang Lang continued to speak to Jin Nuo: "By the way, what about Lin Zhen? I remember we had a bet token about this kid. Do you still remember it?"

"Of course I remember. Lin Zhen is about to return. Didn't we add a follow-up to our bet? At first, we agreed that if Lin Zhen could break through the fifth floor, he could comprehend the stele of your Holy Land; if he could break through the sixth floor, you would have to change all the steles to Heaven Class; and if he could break through the seventh floor, Lin Zhen could choose any stele he wanted, is that right?

"

"That's right, that's what I agreed to. However, if Lin Zhen cannot complete it, I can also find a Freedom City disciple to comprehend the stele of Falling Star Lake."

"Deal!"

"Well, good luck, Jin Nuo. If Falling Star Lake Holy Land scores zero while you are in charge, it will be quite interesting. Hehe!"

After that, Zhang Lang stopped talking.

Jin Nuo left the Dimensional Universe chat group, and the words of Zhang Lang made him feel a bit uneasy in his heart. The word "zero" lingered in his mind, giving him a bad feeling.

"It won't happen, Mitchell is here, so it's impossible to score zero."

The challenge of the Thirty-Three Heaven Tower was still going on.

One by one, the students entered and then left, with most people's faces not looking very good.

The difficulty of the Thirty-Three Heaven Tower was quite challenging. After a year of cultivation, almost half of the Huang Class Martial Artists couldn't even break through the first floor.

Even for the Hong Class, many people were eliminated on the first floor.

Most of the members from both of the Universe classes could only stop at the second floor, with only a few being able to reach the third floor.

Many students from the Yellow and Xuan classes were able to break through the third floor, but no one could break through the fourth floor. After all, they hadn't been cultivating for very long, and accomplishing this much was already quite impressive.

In order to pass the fourth floor and reach the fifth floor, only Heaven Class and Earth Class students stood a chance, but mostly, even Earth Class students couldn't reach the fifth floor.

So far, only Dongfang Yu and Sun Yidao had reached the sixth floor.

However, the bad news was that their rankings had already slipped to seventh and eighth place, with competitors from the three Great Sacred Lands each producing a stronger candidate than them.

After completing their tower challenges, some members left the stele comprehension area and headed towards the rest area.

It was like a test, and they were the students. The results were out now after a year of hard cultivation, and whether they were good or bad, they finally had some rare downtime.

The students came to the front of the Alchemy room, where there was a nearby commercial area where they could buy some items. Qian Tong had set up several stone tables and chairs outside the Alchemy room, so people could relax there. In their free time, they liked to gather at this spot.

On the tables, there were food and drinks provided for free by Qian Tong. As a Saint-Level Alchemist, Qian Tong never lacked money, and he always did well when it came to winning people's hearts.

Martial artists sat here, watching the upcoming tower challenge.

"Everyone, I have a bad feeling about this. We, the Falling Star Lake, might encounter some troubles in this Great Competition of the Four Holy Lands."

"Come on, there are still several people from Heaven Class who haven't competed yet. Nobody knows the results until the very end."

"Don't be too optimistic, Mitchell from Heaven Class hasn't returned yet, and the strength of the others doesn't seem to be as good as Sun Yidao and Dongfang Yu. They are about to be squeezed out of the top ten. If there's any accident with Mitchell, maybe we'll really see a big upset in this competition."

"It's hard to say. Hey, Brother Huang Zun, your performance isn't very good this time." a Xuan Class martial artist said to Huang Zun.

Huang Zun had reached the fifth floor in this tower challenge, currently ranking first in Earth Class, but he was definitely out of the top ten.

Hearing the words of the Xuan Class martial artist, Huang Zun coldly snorted, "Well, at least I'm the first in Earth Class, which is way better than someone like you who can't even make it into Earth Class."

After the incident with Lin Zhen, Huang Zun has become much more low-key, but he still couldn't bear the sarcasm.

The Xuan Class martial artist was choked by Huang Zun's words, his face changed. Seeing so many people around, Huang Zun wouldn't dare to do anything to him, so he simply shouted, "Who cares about competing with me?! Try to compete with Lin Zhen! I bet his result will be better than yours!"

Lin Zhen was a sore spot for Huang Zun. Hearing the words of the Xuan Class martial artist, his face went cold instantly: "You little brat, say that one more time!"

Seeing the signs of Huang Zun losing his temper, the Xuan Class martial artist didn't dare to speak. He was really worried that Huang Zun might go berserk here, beating him which would be too humiliating.

At this moment, Qian Tong walked out of the alchemy room, holding a plate of fruit and placed it on the stone table.

"Hehe! Little brother, what you said is inappropriate. How could Lin Zhen compete with Huang Zun? I think he doesn't even have the ability to enter the tower challenge. It's been such a long time, and he still hasn't returned. Maybe he's not coming back at all."

Everyone knew about the grudge between Qian Tong and Lin Zhen, but nobody spokefor Lin Zhen at this moment. In the Holy Land, Lin Zhen was an anomaly, being a World King who had only advanced to Earth Class, which made many people resentful and uncomfortable. Besides, he had been expelled by the Fifth Prince and had wandered for ten months before returning. What could he have achieved? It was just a joke.

If they had the energy, it would be better to get along with Qian Tong, maybe they could get some elixirs at a discounted price.

"Saint Master, how much do you sell the Saint-level Elixirs for? Can you sell us some?" the Xuan Class martial artist asked.

Qian Tong shook his head with a smile, "Saint-level Elixirs are too precious, even for me, they're not easy to refine. I won't sell them for regular money. If you want to buy Saint-level Elixirs, you need to bring Divine Stones."

"Isn't that too high a demand? None of us here have Divine Stones. Where can we get those things?"

Qian Tong chuckled, "My Saint-level elixirs are also not easy to come by. For example, my Revival Golden Pill can revive someone as long as their body is still intact, even if they've been dead for three years. Tell me, isn't that worth a few Divine Stones?"

At this point, Huang Zun chimed in, "If you want Divine Stones, it's very hard to get them in the Original World. You'll have to go to the Endless Star Sea or other dangerous places. You better not have high hopes. After all, you have endless lives now; isn't it better to just enjoy your blessings?"

The martial artists said nothing, but since they all joined the Holy Land, none of them were content with mediocrity.

If it was just for enjoyment, they could stop cultivating after achieving Longevity and not pursue Three Flowers or God Transformation.

Martial artists with dreams in their hearts, if they want to live comfortably, cannot have too many people above them, or else their lives are not guaranteed.

Longevity Warriors who are beheaded still die. Real immortality requires one to become a deity.

That's why no one took Huang Zun's words to heart; they just didn't want to argue with him.

Right now, everyone was paying attention to the competition to see what results the Falling Star Lake Holy Land could achieve.

Perhaps the most concerned person was Qian Tong. After the failure of last time, Qian Tong also temporarily stopped causing trouble. He didn't give up on taking revenge on Lin Zhen; he was just waiting for the right opportunity.

Qian Tong was already preparing to make his move, but first, he wanted to see Lin Zhen's achievement in the competition and then make his specific plan.

As they talked, the first martial artist who broke through the sixth floor appeared!

Feng Qingluan from the Twin Trees Garden successfully broke through the sixth floor, defeated the Heavenly Lord, and completed 35% of the challenge on the seventh floor before being eliminated. So, Feng Qingluan became the temporary number one of the Four Great Sacred Lands. This result may not stay number one, but it was guaranteed to be in the top ten or even top five.

Before people had time to be shocked, strong contestants from Soul Lock Platform and Freedom City also emerged. Qin Fei from Freedom City broke through the sixth floor, completed 30% of the challenge on the seventh floor, and ranked second!

Lv Qinghou from Soul Lock Platform broke through the sixth floor, completed 27% of the challenge on the seventh floor, and ranked third!

So far, Dongfang Yu had been squeezed out of the top ten, and Sun Yidao had fallen to the tenth position, barely holding on!

Chapter 797: Chapter 800: The Final Appearance

After Feng Qingluan's ascension, the top ten list now had three representatives from each of the three major Holy Lands.

However, Falling Star Lake's performance was lackluster, with only one person entering the list, and was at risk of being eliminated at any time.

By this time, people realized that Falling Star Lake might end up being a big joke, failing to secure any top ten spots.

Some impatient martial artists began contacting the fallen angel, Mitchell.

At this point, Mitchell was probably the only one who could turn the tide. Falling Star Lake could afford to lose, but they had to secure a place to prevent a shutout.

Since the formation of the Four Great Sacred Lands, there hadn't been a Holy Land shutout. If this event occurred, it would be a significant blow to Falling Star Lake, and Jin Nuo would have no face to meet the master of Falling Star Lake.

However, there was no response when trying to contact Mitchell's Dimensional Universe.

Compared to Mitchell, few people held out hope for Lin Zhen.

Although Lin Zhen performed exceptionally well in the Fire Kirin Clan and even defeated some veteran Holy Land warriors, others believed that he relied on the power of elixirs and a mysterious bead to achieve this, both of which were unusable within the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower.

Without these items, Lin Zhen's strength was nearly halved, and he was unable to make significant progress.

The competition continued, and as time passed, most martial artists had completed the tower challenge. Twin Trees Garden managed to have another martial artist enter the top ten in fourth place, completely squeezing Sun Yidao out.

Twin Trees Garden had secured four spots, showing their formidable strength.

Not only were the new students paying attention to this tower challenge, but many older students were also watching closely.

However, as they saw the performance of the new Falling Star Lake students, the older students shook their heads in disapproval.

"The quality of this new generation is too poor," they commented.

As people waited, the battle for the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower was drawing to a close.

Soul Lock Platform was the first to complete the challenge, with their trump card finally making an appearance in the last moment.

Lu Yunfei from Soul Lock Platform's Heaven Class successfully challenged the sixth floor, completed fifty percent of the seventh floor, and jumped to the first place!

However, their first place position did not last long, as a warrior from Freedom City, Xiao Lie, completed sixty-five percent of the seventh floor, snatching back the first place.

Now, the only groups that hadn't completed all challenges were Twin Trees Garden and Falling Star Lake.

The dolphin beneath Lin Zhen's feet was accelerating continuously, as he was about to break out of the foggy area.

There had been a slight accident this time. He originally thought that riding Nine Spirits would speed up his passage through the misty area. Nine Spirits bragged that even with the fog, its nine heads could absorb the mist, ensuring a swift arrival to Falling Star Lake.

But unexpectedly, Nine Spirits got lost, delaying them for nearly a day. By the time Lin Zhen returned to the right path on a dolphin, the Holy Land tower challenge was almost over.

"Nine Spirits, if you mess up my plans this time, be careful, or I'll skin you alive!"

Lin Zhen was frustrated but had no other choice but to urge the dolphin to go faster.

As Lin Zhen was about to break out of the fog, he suddenly felt a fluctuation in space power nearby. Then there was a splash as if something had fallen into the water.

"Is it a water monster?"

Lin Zhen was secretly on guard, as the lake monsters in Falling Star Lake were formidable, even capable of devouring Three Flowers warriors; he had to be careful.

Soon, Lin Zhen noticed the difference. After the object fell into the water, the sound of water sliding came to his ears. The sound of waterwaves was not loud, similar to the waterwaves created by the dolphin beneath his feet.

"It's another person from Falling Star Lake?"

Lin Zhen immediately directed the dolphin towards the direction of the waterwaves.

In the mist, a faint spatial passage had just disappeared. It appeared someone had used a Wormhole Egg to return to this place.

Seeing the disappearing Wormhole, Lin Zhen felt distressed. Wormhole Eggs could be divided into two types: one that could be used across realms, allowing travel from the Original World to the New World.

Those used within the Original World were comparatively cheaper, but the price for a single egg was still hundreds of billions.

To be able to use a Wormhole Egg to escape, this person must have been in grave danger.

"Mitchell!"

As he approached, Lin Zhen was suddenly shocked. In the mist, Mitchell lay motionless on the back of a dolphin, which swam slowly towards Star-Picking Island, following its instincts.

If Lin Zhen had any friends in Falling Star Lake, Mitchell would definitely be one of them. Although the two didn't have deep relationships, they felt their temperaments were compatible and could be friends.

Mitchell was clearly severely injured, with his black wings hanging down, limp, and full of wounds and fresh blood, looking pitiful. Lin Zhen didn't know what had happened to him.

Directing the dolphin to swim over, Lin Zhen used gravity to pull Mitchell towards him.

During the movement, a sudden chill came upon him!

As Lin Zhen raised his hand to bring Mitchell into his internal world, a Sword Gang burst from his hand!

"Slash~!"

A burst of Hei Xue bloomed in the air as Lin Zhen killed a black beetle larger than a watermelon.

Although he killed the beetle with a single blow, Lin Zhen's heart was engulfed by a surge of shock.

This tiny beetle made it difficult for him to kill with his Sword Gang. It should be noted that Lin Zhen's Star Power is now over 50 million, strong enough to kill an ordinary Longevity Realm creature.

Although the Longevity Realm isn't that remarkable, this is just a tiny beetle!

The beetle's corpse fell, and a large number of beetles reappeared in the mist!

"Not good! Where did these ghostly things come from!"

These beetles are each about the size of a watermelon, their shells are made like metal, and their terrifying mouthparts protrude. Nobody wants to taste what it feels like to be bitten by them.

Furthermore, these beetles simply covered the sky, and there were thousands of them densely packed, one after another!

These beetles rushed towards Lin Zhen as if they were flies drawn to blood, their imposing momentum was astonishing.

Lin Zhen's real body quickly entered the inner world while his avatar appeared, initiating Armorization in no time. He also absorbed the dolphin into his inner world, preventing it from being eaten by the insects.

After the armorization, Lin Zhen started to wield the Kirin Gun!

Although these beetles were formidable, they happened to be within the damage range of the Kirin Gun. Lin Zhen didn't even need to aim. Hundreds of beetles were killed every second.

Even though the beetles tried to bite Lin Zhen, they couldn't penetrate the scales he developed after armorizing. They were completely restrained by Lin Zhen, unable to utilize their numerical advantage.

The booming sound of gunshots echoed, and about a minute later, the last beetle was shot down.

Lin Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. Thanks to his armorization and Kirin Gun, he barely controlled the terrifying insects. If it were his real body, he might have been devoured and reduced to a pile of bones by now.

He released Mitchell from his inner world, sensing that he was in grave danger. Lin Zhen immediately fetched healing elixir pills for him to take.

After temporarily stabilizing Mitchell's injuries, Lin Zhen took him straight to Star-Picking Island.

After leaving the misty area, he simply let Nine Spirits appear, and they leaped onto Star-Picking Island in a few bounds.

He handed Mitchell over to the attendants, instructing them to take him back to his quarters. Lin Zhen didn't have time to say anything before heading straight for the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower.

The tower challenge at Twin Trees Garden also ended.

Just like Freedom City and Soul Lock Platform, the last participant in Twin Trees Garden was their ace martial artist, an ascetic monk named Moses. He astonishingly achieved a 90% completion rate on the seventh floor, ranking him first!

Currently, the overall rankings were Moses from Twin Trees Garden in first place, Xiao Lie from Freedom City in second place, Lu Yunfei from Soul Lock Platform in third place, Feng Qingluan from Twin Trees Garden in fourth place, and Zhou Zimei from Twin Trees Garden in fifth place…

Among the top ten, Twin Trees Garden occupied five seats, Soul Lock Platform had three seats, and Freedom City had two seats.

Falling Star Lake still had zero seats occupied.

Jin Nuo's eyebrows were tightly knitted, and he was in a very bad mood.

In the Dimensional Universe, he received news from an attendant that Mitchell had returned but was seriously injured and would not be able to participate in the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower challenge.

This news quickly spread among the Falling Star Lake martial artists.

The Falling Star Lake martial artists who were originally hopeful became desperate. Mitchell was injured and unable to participate, and there was no one left.

They had previously been waiting for Mitchell's return, and their pace for the tower challenge was not fast, a bit sluggish. However, upon hearing this news, the martial artists stopped waiting and began challenging the tower.

One by one, the scores appeared, but none were inspiring.

By the time the last Heaven Class martial artist finished the challenge, there were no more people in the Falling Star Lake Holy Land.

In the group chat where Zhang Lang was in, he sneered, "Jin Nuo, what's happening with your Falling Star Lake? Could it be that my words have come true, and you have zero points in this assessment? If it's true, then you, the Fifth Prince of the Holy Land, bear a great deal of responsibility!"

Facing Zhang Lang's mockery, Jin Nuo's fingertips gently rubbed: "If our Holy Land does end up with zero points, I will apologize to my teacher personally. You don't need to worry, Brother Zhang."

"How could I not worry? We have a bet between us regarding Lin Zhen. If Lin Zhen doesn't show up this time, you will lose, and I will send a Freedom City martial artist to comprehend your Falling Star Lake stele."

The stele is a secret of the Holy Land, and outsiders shouldn't comprehend it easily, but at this moment, Jin Nuo had no choice but to accept the bet.

Just as he was about to grit his teeth and bear it, suddenly an attendant reported.

"Fifth Prince, we have one last martial artist to participate."

"Who is it?"

"Lin Zhen. He was the one who brought Mitchell back. He's now at the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower."

Upon hearing this, Jin Nuo didn't bother to engage with Zhang Lang anymore and exited the Dimensional Universe.

Zhang Lang and a few others also quickly learned of Lin Zhen's return.

Zhang Lang snorted coldly, "The last person, and an World King at that. What can he do? Switch the situation to Falling Star Lake; I want to see if this Lin Zhen can really perform miracles."

Everyone's attention turned to Falling Star Lake, waiting for their last martial artist, Lin Zhen, to complete the challenge.

Chapter 798: Chapter 801: Breaking Through Five Stages _1

The crowd parted, watching Lin Zhen walk into the Thirty-Three Sky Tower.

As soon as he entered the tower, Jin Nuo stood inside the gate with his hands behind his back.

"Fifth Brother."

"Lin Zhen, I will only say this once, at the moment we don't even have a single spot among the top ten in the Falling Star Lake Holy Land. I don't want to see us end up empty-handed."

Lin Zhen silently nodded his head, not promising any specific results, just expressing that he will do his best.

Jin Nuo didn't say much else, not wanting to pressure Lin Zhen, so he turned around and exited the tower.

On the first floor, there was a big red lacquered gate. After opening this gate, one would face the warrior tasked with guarding the first stage.

Lin Zhen pushed the door open, then closed it behind him. Inside, there were stairs leading upwards, but before that, there was a chair. Lin Zhen sat down on the chair and put on his prepared virtual helmet.

The scene inside his mind flickered, and Lin Zhen entered the virtual world of the first floor.

Every six floors of The Thirty-Three Sky Tower were a cycle. They were designated as Spiritual Mind Master, Domain Warrior, Galactic Beast, Elemental War God, Super Swordsman, and Heavenly Lord, respectively.

The first floor was called Taihuang Huangzengtian, and its guardian was likely a Spiritual Mind Master.

After entering, the scene before Lin's Zhen eyes shifted, and he found himself in a forest.

A Spiritual Mind Master stood on a large tree.

This Spiritual Mind Master was at the realm of the Three-Flowers Early Stage. Once he spotted Lin Zhen, he lifted his hand and several flying knives whistled out!

He employed the Holy Land Controlling Knife Skill, which was both elusive and mysterious in its attacks.

However, Lin Zhen didn't have time to tangle with this Spiritual Mind Master. His spiritual power had just advanced to the Diamond Level. This stage posed no difficulty for him.

The realm of the Spiritual Mind Master was just at the Dark Gold Middle Stage. With a thought from Lin Zhen, his Divine Infant leaped out!

Upon seeing Lin Zhen activating his Divine Infant, the Spiritual Mind Master did the same to battle. However, he didn't see Lin Zhen's Divine Infant vibrate his long spear during the fight. The diamond long spear sparkled like a star, and with a single blow, it killed the Spiritual Mind Master's Divine Infant!

The Mind Master screamed, his flying knives fell to the ground, and Lin Zhen quickly rushed towards him, thrusting his long spear directly through the opponent's heart.

One second!

From start to finish, it only took one second for Lin Zhen to pass the first floor.

With a flash of light, Lin Zhen had automatically moved up the stairs, entering the second floor of the Thirty-Three Sky Tower.

On the second floor, he would face a Domain Warrior.

Outside, the long-suppressed martial artists from the Falling Star Lake erupted into cheers. Lin Zhen's performance was a delightful surprise.

Although most of the people present had already passed the first floor, none of them had done it as quickly as Lin Zhen—he had practically done it instantaneously!

A surprised expression appeared on Jin Nuo's face. Lin Zhen's performance had shocked him as well.

However, Zhang Lang and the others didn't pay much attention. It was indeed impressive to pass the first floor with a single move, but a World King remained a World King, with limited potential. Lin Zhen would undoubtedly find the successive floors more challenging.

The second floor of the Thirty-Three Sky Tower was called Taiming Yuwantian. Inside was a large arena.

Lin Zhen stepped onto the stage, and a giant ax-wielding warrior appeared before him, who was at the Peak of Three Flowers Early Stage.

The moment this warrior spotted Lin Zhen, he let out a roar, and a ripple reverberated through space—his domain was activated!

The domain was a Gravity Field. Paired with gravity, Lin Zhen immediately felt intensified pressure.

"Roar~!"

Swinging the giant ax, the warrior charged at Lin Zhen, howling like a mad beast. The ax tore the space as it descended.

"Galaxy Domain~!"

To counter a domain, one also needs a domain. Lin Zhen also had a domain. With a thought, his Galaxy Domain activated. The boundless starry sky unfolded, and one planet after another emerged.

The path of the giant ax warrior was instantly blocked by countless planets. Each planet exploded mid-air, and the resultant shockwaves forced the warrior to retreat continuously.

Lin Zhen didn't want to waste time on the second floor either. He used the Shadowless Step to approach the warrior, his speed so fast it was dizzying, despite the gravity.

Shush, shush, shush~!

The warrior's heavy ax missed several attacks on Lin Zhen. He used his Shadowless Step to get to the back of the opponent. With a backhand strike, the sword fiercely skewered through the opponent!

The sturdy ax warrior didn't fall. Instead, he swung his ax back at Lin Zhen. Lin Zhen's Shadowless Step brought him to the front of the warrior again. With a second sword slash, he decapitated the antagonist!

The ax warrior fell backward, and Lin Zhen ascended to the third floor.

For the second floor, Lin Zhen took three seconds!

This result once again shocked the martial artists. If passing the first floor quickly was understandable, then getting through the second floor, where the giant ax domain warrior was immune to mental shocks, should not be as easy. For Lin Zhen to end the fight in three seconds, it was sufficient proof of his vast strength and capabilities.

"Lin Zhen's score should place him almost among the top ten on the leaderboard, right?"

"Not just the top ten, he could even make it into the top three. I can't believe there's anyone else who can defeat a realm warrior in one or two seconds."

"Impressive. I used to doubt Lin Zhen, but now I haven't even been able to pass the second level, and yet he passed it in three seconds. The gap between us is as distant as heaven and earth."

"He is just a World King right now. If he advances to the Longevity stage, I can't even imagine how far he can go."

Because Lin Zhen was the last one to appear, everyone's attention was focused here. His rapid clearance attracted the full attention of the Four Great Holy Lands.

Those who thought they had the victory in their hands, their faces became solemn at this moment.

In Twin Trees Garden, Feng Qingluan was standing under the Pasuo Tree, with a girl named Zhou Zimei by her side. Feng Qingluan was currently ranked fourth, while Zhou Zimei was fifth.

Under the Twin Trees, a bald martial artist in a coarse linen robe was seated, with his eyes slightly closed.

Zhou Zimei asked Feng Qingluan, "Qingluan, is Lin Zhen your boyfriend?"

Feng Qingluan nodded slightly: "He is my lover."

"He's doing well, right? One second over the first level, three seconds over the second level, I was worried about what kind of man could be worthy of you. Now it seems that I don't need to worry. You can have your perfect match."

Feng Qingluan's cheeks warmed slightly. She had seen Lin Zhen once on the Divine Punishment Star and had always wanted to talk to him more, but never got the chance. She missed him dearly.

The millennium promise was soon approaching. She was about to meet him.

But the appearance of the Crown Princess of Nan Liang stimulated Feng Qingluan and made her determined to join the Holy Land first instead of meeting Lin Zhen. Ning Qingxuan's excellence made Feng Qingluan, as a fellow woman, feel the crisis.

She did not want to lose to anyone, especially women.

At this time, the bald martial artist seated under the Twin Trees suddenly said, "Qingluan, wanting to get married might not be easy for you. I see that the Fourth Mistress has the intention of cultivating you. Perhaps you will become the Fifth Mistress of Twin Trees Garden in the future."

Feng Qingluan's face changed: "Why me? I think Brother Moses you are more likely to. You just took the first place."

The bald martial artist was Moses, who was currently the number one overall. He had a calm demeanor and a friendly smile: "Although I have taken the first place, don't forget Qingluan, I have been at the Three Flowers Peak for countless years, while you, a mutated phoenix, have the talent and potential that is unparalleled in the entire Twin Trees Garden. If you reach the Three Flowers Peak, apart from a few staying behind in the Four Great Holy Lands, no one will be your opponent. So, you are definitely more suitable than me."

Feng Qingluan remained silent. The Fourth Mistress of Twin Trees Garden, Fang Fei, valued her greatly. Especially after discovering that she was a mutated phoenix, Fang Fei spent a lot of money to get another advanced divine body for her that perfectly matched her own.

Dual Divine Bodies, Mutated Phoenix, Feng Qingluan's talent was terrifying.

Although Moses was currently the number one among the younger generation in Twin Trees Garden, when considering the future, Feng Qingluan was the one to look at.

Seeing Feng Qingluan's expression, Moses just smiled lightly: "Our junior sister perhaps is still holding on to Lin Zhen. In my opinion, Lin Zhen might inherit Falling Star Lake in the future. You two wanting to be together will be difficult!"

At this moment, Zhou Zimei said, "Could Lin Zhen possibly defeat Brother Moses and take the first place overall?"

Moses closed his eyes slightly, clinching a treasure vase seal in his palm: "If he can really defeat me and as long as he doesn't make any mistakes, the inheritance of Falling Star Lake is almost a sure thing. Looking at it now, there might be hope."

Zhou Zimei was a little unconvinced: "But Brother Moses, it seemed you didn't give it your all."

Moses shook his head slightly: "Does it matter if I did my best or not? Lin Zhen, he… is just a World King."

The third level of the Three Three Sky Tower is called "Qingming He Tongtian", and the guardian of this level is the Galaxy Beast.

Lin Zhen was surprised to find that the Galaxy Beast he was facing on the third level was a Fire Kirin.

If it were another Galaxy Beast, Lin Zhen's fight might be a bit more challenging. But if it was a Kirin, there would be no problem at all.

Armorization, clad in gold, and then Kylin Decides.

No matter what tactics the opponent had, it would be kept in check. With his solid defense, Lin Zhen defeated the Galaxy Beast across from him without any harm and successfully entered the fourth level.

Although this level took relatively more time, a full five minutes, it posed no difficulty for Lin Zhen.

The fourth level was called "Xuantai Pingyu Tian", and the guardian was the Elemental War God.

The Elemental War God refers to warriors who have nurtured the power of elements to the extreme and also have very strong melee combat capabilities.

However, the damage of elemental power against Lin Zhen was still limited as Lin Zhen had a high resistance to elemental energy due to his proficiency in all types of elements.

The threat of elements was lessened, so it was easy for Lin Zhen to pass this level. Using Sword Gang, continuous Death Sword Skills, and Constant Star Fall, he killed the Elemental War God.

The five minutes spent on the third level made people think that Lin Zhen might not be able to achieve a good score, but to their surprise, he created miracles again on the fourth level — ending the battle in twenty seconds!

After passing the fourth level and moving on to the fifth level, he faced a super swordsman.

This fight was relatively challenging as the super swordsman had no obvious weaknesses, superb sword skills, immune to mental shocks, resistance to elemental powers, and strong melee combat abilities.

Lin Zhen took ten minutes to pass this level, eventually overcoming it with a narrow victory thanks to the Shadowless Step.

After breezing through five levels, Lin Zhen was about to face a mini-BOSS, the Heavenly Lord!

The Heavenly Lord was a Galaxy Beast proficient in domain, spiritual power, elemental power, and with peerless melee combat abilities. His strength could be compared to the combination of the previous five levels, and his realm reached the peak of the Three Flowers.

As long as he could pass this level, Lin Zhen would definitely make it into the top ten of the overall ranking, fulfilling Jin Nuo's task!

Chapter 799: Chapter 802: Duel with the Heavenly Lord! (Third Update)_1

Upon entering the sixth layer, it turned out to be a desert.

As the scorching sun beat down, Lin Zhen scanned his surroundings, but he didn't see the Heavenly Lord anywhere.

"No way, where is everyone?"

Lin Zhen kept looking around, but all he saw was an endless wilderness; there was no sign of anyone around.

"Caw~!"

Suddenly, a squawk sounded in the sky. Lin Zhen looked up in surprise, just in time to see a gigantic bird, its wingspan reaching a hundred meters, descending from within the sun's brilliance!

The bird's colossal claws reached him in an instant, seemingly teleporting to grab Lin Zhen!

Despite Lin Zhen's lack of control over his rising body, before he even had the chance to react, the giant bird pecked viciously at him.

"Think again before you act!"

Lin Zhen swung the Sky-cutting Divine Sword fiercely, displaying the Death Sword Skill to its utmost!

The sword, a spiritual treasure, actually caused a metallic clang upon impact with the bird!

But the enormous bird didn't seem to be hindered much, it pecked at Lin Zhen's shoulder with its beak!

"Transform into Black Hole Beast! Golden Armorization!"

In a moment of dire crisis, Lin Zhen's body was enveloped in a layer of scales, managing to block the Heavenly Lord's beak strike. Simultaneously, he transformed into a colossal Black Hole Beast.

After undergoing the transformation, Lin Zhen's Kylin bit savagely toward the bird's abdomen!

The giant bird released its grip, flinging Lin Zhen away.

As Lin Zhen tumbled in mid-air, he tried to make use of this opportunity to employ Black Hole Devouring, but a flap of the bird's wings transported it next to Lin Zhen again; its gigantic wing struck down.

Lin Zhen didn't have time to dodge and was harshly smacked into the ground, crashing heavily into the yellow sand.

Just as he hit the ground, the enormous bird reappeared next to him, sending him flying back into the sky with a swipe of its claw.

A layer of eerie light emanated from the colossal beak, showcasing its extraordinary sharpness. Lin Zhen doubted if he could possibly withstand another strike.

"No more, my actual body alone isn't sufficient to face off against the Heavenly Lord. I must bring out my doppelganger to fight as well."

People assumed that Lin Zhen was powerful because he depended on drugs, but nobody realized he had acquired a new doppelganger.

Upon thinking, his doppelganger appeared in the form of Mutated Kylin of the Five Elements, landing on the Heavenly Lord's back instantly.

The massive mouth bit down hard; it was a bone-crushing bite!

The Heavenly Lord, suffering from pain, let out a loud scream, turning to deal with the doppelganger. At that very moment, the real Lin Zhen seized his chance to bite down once more, dealing another heavy blow to the Heavenly Lord!

After getting back to his senses, the Heavenly Lord was hit by Lin Zhen again. Unable to withstand it, his wings flapped and he morphed into a human shape while hovering in mid-air.

The Heavenly Lord was a Golden Winged Roc, a Galaxy Beast with a hooked nose, high cheekbones, and black skin!

The Golden Winged Roc was a mutation amongst Rocs, possessing spatial talents. Even a slight flap of its wings would cover hundreds of thousands of kilometers, making it one of the most powerful amongst Galaxy Beasts.

Seeing that the opponent had abandoned his Galaxy Beast form hinted that he was readying other tactics. Lin Zhen dared not be lax and transformed into human form with his doppelganger. Being a virtual space, he wasn't concerned about others finding out about his use of a doppelganger.

After his transformation into human form, the Golden Winged Roc let out a squawk, unleashing a Mental Shock!

The spiritual power of Peak of Dark Gold was slightly weaker than Lin Zhen, who had just advanced to Diamond level.

Instantaneously, Lin Zhen fought back using his spiritual power, meanwhile commanding his doppelganger to charge. Now that the doppelganger had come forth, there was no need for Lin Zhen's actual body to be on the front lines.

Both his Divine Infant, positioned at the top, and the doppelganger, positioned below, retaliated against the Heavenly Lord in unison!

After failing to hit with his Mental Shock, the Heavenly Lord squawked once again, initiating the power of his domain.

The Golden Winged Roc possessed the realm of Storms, turning the desert into a hell in an instant!

In Lin Zhen's view, this storm was far beyond what earthly winds could be. At least it seemed more akin to Space Storms that swept across cosmic galaxies, carrying not just air, but also Dark Matter and Dark Energy.

Instantly, the storm soared to a speed thousands of times the speed of sound. At such a pace, even a gentle gust of wind would become the sharpest blade, capable of slicing through many things.

Lin Zhen's Divine Infant instantly retreated to his Spiritual Consciousness Sea. Meanwhile, his actual body and doppelganger underwent Golden Armorization to resist the wind storm triggered by the Roc.

Within the storm, the Roc underwent armorization. Its massive black wings unfolded behind his back, moving around at a speed comparable to lightning, with two spears, each with a head at the front and back, magically appearing in his hands.

Employing his field and elemental powers, he also exploited his prowess as a super sword master in close combat.

Super Sword Master was just a synonym for close combat; it didn't mean that the Heavenly Lord had to use a sword. His double-headed spears were specifically designed for the long spear style referred to as the Twin-Headed Serpent Spear.

The Twin-Headed Serpent Spear technique was exceedingly difficult to master. Though it was not as powerful as the heavy spear, its proficiency was much higher than that of the heavy spear. Coupled with speed advantage, it was absolutely a supreme weapon in close combat.

The Heavenly Lord, with his Twin-Headed Serpent Spear in hand, moved around in the Storm like a gargantuan hedgehog covered in spikes, attacking fiercely with ghost-like speed, presenting Lin Zhen with neither a proper angle nor the opportunity to perform Devouring.

The real Lin Zhen held the Sky-cutting Divine Sword, and the doppelganger wielded Landis's Spear. They fought the Heavenly Lord side by side.

In this battle, Lin Zhen brought out all his skills.

The Shadowless Step became Lin Zhen's strongest means of fighting against the Heavenly Lord, especially the fifth map of the Shadowless Step, allowing Lin Zhen to hold his own against sharp attacks without being at a disadvantage.

A hundred steps, countless changes, allowed Lin Zhen's form to dance like in a storm, countering attacks with ease and composure.

Regardless of the Heavenly Lord's strength, in Lin Zhen's opinion, he was only of the Three Flowers Peak level, with slightly more comprehensive abilities and stronger Star Power, but not strong enough to bring him down instantaneously.

Perhaps he could manage if he was just facing the main body, but the avatar assisting the main body, especially with the avatar's Star Power amounting to ten million, how could he let the Heavenly Lord easily succeed?

Lin Zhen's main body advanced to the Level 9 World King, and the avatar also reached Level 9 Longevity. Each level increased the Star Power by five million, skyrocketing to ninety million, not much less than the Heavenly Lord's Star Power.

Moreover, the main body and the avatar communicated closely, there was no error in their cooperation. This intense battle gave Lin Zhen the confidence to overcome the challenge.

"Spring Earth!"

After a long fight, the avatar finally found an opportunity and displayed Landis' Spear Technique.

As the spear was being waved, the earth's crust began to move, with countless mud walls rising from the ground!

These earthen walls didn't have much killing power, but under the isolation of the earthen walls, the Heavenly Lord's storm realm was greatly limited!

The storm hit the earthen walls, shattering layers, but Lin Zhen's earthen walls were seemingly endless, quickly reducing the power and speed of the wind.

Without the acceleration of Gale, the Heavenly Lord's speed dropped dramatically.

Lin Zhen's main body was finally able to track the trajectory of the Heavenly Lord's movements, leaping forward, and unleashing the Death Sword Skill!

The Heavenly Lord's gaze was cold, devoid of human emotions, but he saw an opportunity and saw the flaw in Lin Zhen's main body. Accelerating, he appeared in front of Lin Zhen and thrust his spear with the speed of lightning!

Under the multitude of falling spear shadows, Lin Zhen switched from offense to defense with his sword skill, immovable like a mountain!

"Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding~~~~!!"

Through a flurry of flying sparks, Lin Zhen's main body was forced to step back, but he was only injured, not killed.

The avatar came to assist in time and Landis' Spear retaliated, calling upon Winter's Chill!

A world of ice and snow emerged behind him, large clusters of freezing air rushed towards the Heavenly Lord's face!

The Heavenly Lord tried to retreat but suddenly felt his feet freeze. It turned out that while he was battling with Lin Zhen's main body, although Lin Zhen was injured, a large area of freezing air was left behind.

This freezing air couldn't affect much, but as it collided with the Winter's Chill force of the avatar, the freezing air erupted instantly, forming a layer of freezing air that covered the entire space!

This freezing air condensed into frost on the Heavenly Lord's body in 0.1 seconds, into ice in 0.2 seconds, and complete freezing in 0.3 seconds!

This brief moment of stasis was fatal at this time. Lin Zhen's avatar burst out with a spear, penetrating the Heavenly Lord's body!

The Heavenly Lord desperately tried to resist, but the injured Lin Zhen's main body suddenly turned back, a gravitational force remotely grabbed the Heavenly Lord's one arm, turning his two-handed defense into a one-handed defense by a narrow margin.

Under these circumstances, no one at the Three Flowers Realm could resist Lin Zhen's avatar's spear.

The moment the Flower Gun Two-headed Snake stopped, the avatar succeeded.

After Landis's Spear was imbued with gold, it was unstoppable, penetrating the Heavenly Lord's chest.

"Shatter for me!"

The avatar shook the spear and the Four Elements Flower bloomed. The fluctuation of earth, water, fire, and wind instantly turned the Heavenly Lord's internal organs into mush!

The Heavenly Lord let out a scream, his one-handed spear startlingly targeting Lin Zhen main body's throat.

This dying strike startled Lin Zhen. This kind of AI character, fearing neither life nor death, aiming solely to kill the opponent, had almost succeeded with this strike.

Fortunately, Lin Zhen had a Super Divine Body. A snow lotus bloomed, blocking the Heavenly Lord's final attack.

Star power exploded on the Snow Lotus, had it stabbed him, this Star Power would have exploded inside his body. Even if he had a Divine Body, he would probably have been blown to pieces.

Lotus petals fluttered down from the sky, both the main body and the avatar stopped their movements, their chests heaving as they watched the Heavenly Lord's figure gradually disappear in the air.

"I… I won!"

Lin Zhen couldn't help but feel a great sense of accomplishment, along with a touch of awe.

After practicing with the avatar, Lin Zhen once did not put any of the Three Flowers Realm in his eyes, believing that the combination of the main body and the avatar could easily defeat any Three Flowers.

But after encountering the Heavenly Lord this time, Lin Zhen felt he truly learned a lesson.

The Heavenly Lord of the Thirty-Three Tower could almost represent the highest level of the Three Flowers Realm. At the very least, he is a top-tier Three Flower. Only by defeating the Heavenly Lord could you claim to reign supreme in the Three Flowers.

Lin Zhen defeated him, but the victory was very narrow. Moreover, if there were masters like the Heavenly Lord in the real world, they would certainly have avatars too. If he released an avatar, could Lin Zhen still win?

"There are always bigger fish out there. At any time, I must maintain a heart of reverence."

Lin Zhen let out a long breath, no matter what, he had defeated the Heavenly Lord. He was now ranked fifth on the overall leaderboard, surpassing Zhou Zimei of the Twin Trees Garden, and completed the task given by Jin Nuo.

Next, he would be facing the guardian of the seventh level, ready to meet the greatest challenge!

Chapter 800: Chapter 803: Challenging the God Transformation Realm! (Fourth Update)_1

Even if the people of Falling Star Lake Holy Land did not want to support Lin Zhen, even if they were jealous that Lin Zhen, as a World King, was superior to them, at this moment, Lin Zhen had made the list!

Whether they liked it or not, they had to cheer. Otherwise, in Jin Nuo's eyes, it might seem that they did not care about the honor and disgrace of the Holy Land and were disloyal.

Moreover, this cheering was not entirely against their will. After all, if the Holy Land were to lose disgracefully, they too would lose face.

Lin Zhen, as a Level Nine World King, broke through the sixth level of the Heavenly Lord's guard at the Three Flowers Peak. This was a miracle in itself, which they had to admire.

Perhaps the only ones who didn't cheer were two individuals: a student of the Xuan Class named Mechanical, and Qian Tong, who was watching from outside.

Both of these men were enemies of Lin Zhen, they would never cheer for him.

But other people were different. Even Jin Nuo couldn't help clapping lightly, clearly very satisfied with Lin Zhen's performance.

Mitchell's absence due to injury was a significant regret for Jin Nuo. However, Lin Zhen's sudden ascendancy could partially compensate for that. At least the Falling Star Lake Holy Land was not getting zero, which was a good thing.

Moreover, Lin Zhen was not at the bottom. After defeating the Heavenly Lord, he ranked fifth, which was relatively high.

Moreover, by breaking through the sixth level, that meant Zhang Lang had lost.

The bet between Jin Nuo and Zhang Lang stated that as long as Lin Zhen broke through the third level, there would be a reward. If he broke through the fifth level, he would receive a Heaven Class stone tablet from the tablets they were studying.

After a conversation between Jin Nuo and Lin Zhen, and another talk with Zhang Lang, the rewards for breaking through the sixth level were agreed upon. Zhang Lang would have to provide three Heaven Class tablets for Lin Zhen to choose from.

This reward was quite good, as long as Zhang Lang didn't unfairly provide Lin Zhen with three useless tablets to choose from.

If Lin Zhen could break through the seventh level, then he could choose any one of the Freedom City Holy Land's stone tablets. However, Jin Nuo didn't even dare to think about the seventh level as the guardian of the seventh level was an Early Stage Divine Transformation Spiritual Mind Master!

The Divine Transformation Realm was divided into three stages: Divine Sense Transformation, Divine World Transformation, Divine Stone Transformation.

The sum of these three stages was known as Divine Transformation.

The seventh level guardian was an Early Stage Divine Sense Transformation Spiritual Mind Master. Just one stage difference between Divine Sense Transformation and Three Flowers was as vast as the distance between heaven and earth.

Due to the divine being residing within the martial artist after the Divine Sense Transformation, strictly speaking, they were no longer categorized as martial artists.

Perhaps the powerful Three Flowers had a faint hope of challenging Divine Sense, but a World King challenging Divine Transformation was unheard of since the creation of the Original World. Jin Nuo had never heard of it, his teacher had never mentioned it, and he had never seen any evidence of it in any records.

It was impossible!

Therefore, in Jin Nuo's view, Lin Zhen would be quickly eliminated upon entering the seventh level, and his progress could not surpass Feng Qingluan of Twin Trees Garden.

Mentioning Feng Qingluan, Jin Nuo also thought highly of this woman. She was capable of reaching such an extent with a Longevity Realm. She may very well succeed the Twin Trees Garden in the future and become the Holy Land Resident.

If it were before, Jin Nuo might have been jealous of Fang Fei's good fortunes. But upon seeing Lin Zhen, he felt more balanced.

Perhaps he wouldn't need to wait tens of millions of years. Possibly within a million years, Lin Zhen could take his place, fully liberating him.

Jin Nuo's heart was set on the Endless Star Sea!

"Lin Zhen, come on, when you come out, I will personally celebrate your success!" Jin Nuo thought to himself.

At the Soul Lock Platform Holy Land, Feng Dao was silent for a while, then said to the martial artists of his Holy Land, "You must strive harder. You all pride yourselves as geniuses, but what is the measure of a genius? It's overcoming levels to challenge. Lin Zhen, as a World King, can challenge the Heavenly Lord at the Three Flowers Peak. Can any of you do that?"

The geniuses all lowered their heads in shame. People might barely manage to challenge someone one or half a level higher, but challenging two levels higher was simply too difficult.

At the Twin Trees Garden Holy Land, Moses slowly opened his eyes. There was no surprise in his gaze.

"Sure enough, Lin Zhen is definitely the future heir of the Falling Star Lake Holy Land. Qingluan, you have good taste, being able to choose such a person."

Feng Qingluan clenched her fists secretly, "Lin Zhen, you must surpass my performance!"

At the Freedom City Holy Land, Zhang Lang looked upset.

"This Lin Zhen really is something. He actually was able to defeat the Heavenly Lord. It seems that I underestimated him."

"This time Jin Nuo managed to trick me. Now I have to choose three Heaven Class tablets for Lin Zhen to study. I cannot choose ones that are too suitable for him, or else this kid might soar to the skies in the future and steal all the limelight from our Freedom City."

Zhang Lang was thinking about which tablet to choose for Lin Zhen's study. In his mind, there was no way Lin Zhen could pass the seventh level, so he would have to choose the tablet himself.

Not only did Zhang Lang think this, but most people thought the same. Passing the sixth level and seventh level were two entirely different concepts. No matter how gifted Lin Zhen was, it was likely he would stop here.

But Lin Zhen didn't think much about this. Once he had broken through the sixth level, his attitude towards the seventh level battle became more relaxed. Whether he won or lost wasn't as critical, which often allowed him to perform at his best.

The scenery before him changed, and Lin Zhen found himself in a void.

The gravity on the ground was significant. Normally, one could not stay in the void; only those with foot-treading artifacts could.

Lin Zhen transformed the Light Annihilation into a shield and stepped upon it again. Although Light Annihilation was not considered a treasure, its flexibility – its ability to arbitrarily change its shape without being shattered or broken – made it extremely useful for stepping on.

With his foot on the Light Annihilation, Lin Zhen slowly advanced.

Around him was nothing but void. Looking down, he could not see the ground and looking up, he could not see the stars. There was nothing else. Nothing up in the sky, nothing down on the ground.

Lin Zhen was walking through this void, not knowing where his enemy was.

As he was wondering, a soft laugh suddenly came from the sky.

"Ha! A mere World King daring to challenge a deity. How overconfident."

"Who?!"

Lin Zhen was stunned. In the previous six layers of the battle, the enemy had been completely mechanical, not saying anything or showing any emotions. Why had it changed in the seventh layer?

"I am the guardian of the seventh layer, Beyond the Sky of the Void. Little ant, you've worked hard to fight all the way here. Now, let me show you the power of a god!"

"Divine's Impact!"

In the void, a Mental Shock appeared out of nowhere!

This Mental Shock was completely colorless and shapeless, directly hitting Lin Zhen's Spiritual Consciousness Sea!

Even through Lin Zhen's eyes, all he saw was a flash of diamond light. After that, he was overcome with severe headaches, as if pierced by countless needles, and he fell straight from the sky!

This time, Lin Zhen saw the ground.

On the ground, there was a terrifying river of molten metal!

The river was not flowing with water, but raging molten metal. It was iron melted by intense heat, and its temperature was unbelievably high. Seeing Lin Zhen fall, the magma leaped up as if wanting to devour him!

Although Lin Zhen did not fear flames, this river of molten metal gave him a sense of extreme danger. The sharp metallic aura inside, combined with the flames, could strip his skin and bones!

Bearing the severe pain in his mind, Lin Zhen gathered his spiritual power and stepped on his shield to rise into the air again, narrowly avoiding the assault of the magma!

The heatwave barely scraped past him, and Lin Zhen slid in the air, rising higher.

As soon as he ascended, a sneer came from the sky once again.

"Such a struggle from a tiny ant. But I love watching ants scrabble on a hot pan, wanting to flee but having nowhere to escape. Little guy, I'll keep you company and have some fun!"

"Divine's Impact!"

Another Mental Shock came together, hitting Lin Zhen's Spiritual Consciousness Sea again!

Within his Spiritual Consciousness Sea, only a small part of the Divine Infant Gun tip had diamond-level spiritual power; more than ninety-nine percent was still at the Dark Gold Level.

Facing the enemy's diamond-class spiritual power attack, Lin Zhen's Dark Gold spiritual power couldn't resist at all. The intense pain returned, and with a shout from Lin Zhen, his body immediately tumbled down again.

"No! I must not fall into this metal river, or I'll be eliminated!"

Lin Zhen forcefully gathered his spiritual power and ascended once again when the metal river was about to hit him.

A flow of molten iron skimmed his ankle, instantly ruining his clothes and skin!

However, thankfully his body managed to dodge it, thus Lin Zhen was not disqualified.

"Heh! Such a tenacious little fellow. But what's the point of your struggling? You can't even detect my presence, so you can only be hit by my Divine's Impact. You evaded it once, but can you do so ten times? As long as you don't fall, I'll keep hitting."

"Divine's Impact!"

The third Mental Shock came again.

This time, Lin Zhen did not get hit immediately.

While his opponent talked, Lin Zhen used his breathing rhythm and the pauses in his speech to determine the moment his opponent would make a move.

As soon as Lin Zhen felt the moment of the opponent's move, he decisively activated Time Deceleration!

Ten times deceleration!

A small time stance appeared around Lin Zhen, just a thin layer.

The temporal stance could not entirely prevent the Mental Shock from arriving; the opponent's shock speed was still incredibly fast.

However, it did slow him down a bit.

Based on this slightly slowed time, Lin Zhen sensed the direction of the opponent's move.

His left brain, in the direction of a forty-five-degree angle, was the first to bear the opponent's Mental Shock.

Even though his body was still in tremendous pain and still falling, a hint of joy appeared on Lin Zhen's face.

Because with this move, he had found the enemy's location.

Fighting with an invisible enemy would have no victory. Lin Zhen didn't know how far he could go in this seventh layer, but he had to do one thing – to expose the enemy!

Chapter 801: Chapter 804: Break Your Arrogance! (Fifth Update)_1

Although struck down by the Divine's Impact for the third time, Lin Zhen didn't display any signs of despair.

Even though the flood of iron once again corroded one of his feet to the bone, Lin Zhen remained unconcerned.

Relieving his headache, Lin Zhen soared into the sky again.

"Hehe, pitiful ant, forever unaware of the gap between you and the deities. Making futile resistance, how sorrowful and lamentable. Your name is Lin Zhen, right? I'll send you on your way, turning you into ash amidst the churning steel torrent!"

"Divine's Impact~~!!"

While the other party was speaking, Lin Zhen's mind became tranquil.

Clearly, the seventh-layer guardian was unlike the previous six layers. This one was intelligent; it understood mental tactics, mocking, and how to crumble its opponent's will.

If the challenger's will was broken, its victory would become even easier.

Although Lin Zhen himself was well aware that he wasn't a match for the God Transformation Realm, he also believed he wasn't an easy pushover.

The other party's Divine's Impact was tricky and couldn't be traced. Under such uneven combat conditions, there was no way to win. Lin Zhen's strategy was to first break through the opponent's tactics.

A diamond-level Mental Shock, eh? I have that too!

If the opponent's location didn't change, then the Mental Shock would be coming from the same direction. When Lin Zhen felt the opponent launch another attack, he resolutely let his Divine Infant's outburst!

Within the Spiritual Consciousness Sea, a mini-sized Lin Zhen brandishing a spear rushed out.

With a swing of the spear in his hand and aiming at the void, he thrust the spear!

The diamond glows on the spear tip sparkled like a star. This spear disrupted the uneven combat balance. It was a spear representing hope!

Vroom~~!!

There was no sound of metal collision, only the ripples caused by the impact of two spiritual forces near Lin Zhen's ear.

These ripples were like droplets being dropped into a calm lake, causing circles of ripples to ripple out!

It wasn't earth-shattering, but it was indeed a miracle!

An uncontrollable look of joy surfaced on Lin Zhen's face: "I succeeded! I blocked it! I blocked the Divine's Impact!"

That voice in the void echoed boundlessly: "Impossible! How could this be? You are merely a Level Nine World King, how could you stop my Divine's Impact? How could you possess diamond-level Spiritual Power?"

Lin Zhen laughed heartily: "Existence is reason itself. If you don't even understand this, then you have no qualification to claim to be a deity. If being a deity is as easy as you make it out to be, then it's a bit too easy to become a deity!"

"No! I don't believe it! This is just a coincidence for you. You won't be this lucky next time. I will keep trying until I knock you down into the iron magma river!"

Lin Zhen's face turned cold: " pity you won't have the chance, seventh-layer guardian, reveal yourself!"

While speaking, Lin Zhen suddenly transformed into the Black Hole Beast.

The gigantic Black Hole Beast appeared, its mouth opened to reveal a galaxy and the deep terrifying black hole.

"Black Hole Storm! Devour…!"

In the virtual world, Lin Zhen could use the Black Hole Storm without affecting the real world.

His current Star Power was as high as 52 million. Anyone with Star Power less than 140 million could not resist his devouring move.

At this moment, Lin Zhen even wondered if the opponent's Star Power was less than 100 million. If so, this move would end the fight.

But reality proved that he was overthinking. For one to enter the God Transformation Realm, their Star Power could not possibly be less than 100 million!

Even if this guardian was just a beginner Spiritual Mind Master, his Star Power was still over a hundred million. Clearly surpassing 140 million, Lin Zhen's move did not manage to swallow the opponent.

However, the opponent was not unaffected. He had not expected Lin Zhen to accurately locate him, thus letting his guard down against Lin Zhen's Black Hole Devour move.

The result was, he had no choice but to reveal his true form and forcibly resist the pull of the Black Hole Storm.

In the void, the terrifying black hole ripples spread out in waves under the drive of the Naked Singularity. Between the black hole ripples, a man clad in green robes with a plain face appeared.

As the black hole ripples pulled at him, his body radiated a faint silver glow, managing to resist the pull of the black hole and standing stock still in the void.

Looking from Lin Zhen's perspective, one could even see a long red bar above the man's head.

Lin Zhen knew, this red bar represented the so-called life value of the opponent. As long as he could drain this red bar, the opponent would surely die and the level would be passed.

Lin Zhen liked this method, at least he could know the actual effect of his attack.

Resisting Lin Zhen's Black Hole Storm wasn't without cost for the guardian, his red bar had already reduced by about 10 percent.

"Spiritual Mind Master, Spiritual Power is part of your life force, isn't it? Have you had a hard time resisting this Black Hole Storm? Then, let me ease a little bit of your suffering!"

"Avatar, go!"

With a single mental command, an avatar flew out from Lin Zhen's body, brandishing the Spear of Landis, turning into a streak of light and attacking the guardian!

The face of the guardian had turned an ugly shade of green, revealing a human-like expression.

"Ignorant rodent, you truly infuriated me, you've provoked the wrath of the divine. Prepare to die under my hand!"

"This annoying black hole, break!"

The Guardian waved his hands, finally unleashing his Star Power, and managed to forcibly break Lin Zhen's Black Hole Devour!

Lin Zhen's strongest move only shaved off ten percent of his opponent's life force!

However, this incident caused an extreme shock among the spectators.

Since Lin Zhen was the last one, everyone was closely tracking his progress. Even though it couldn't be broadcasted live, they could still see Lin Zhen's progress.

After the Black Hole Devour ended, it showed that Lin Zhen had already completed fifteen percent.

Even though this result still ranked him fifth, it was impossibly shocking!

A mere World King, managing to injure a Super Advanced Martial Artist who has achieved Divine Transformation, what kind of World King was this?

Jin Nuo's hands clenched into fists unconsciously, because he saw hope here.

Lin Zhen had abundant experience in battling Spiritual Mind Masters.

Spiritual Mind Masters primarily use their Spiritual Power, so they aren't particularly good in melee combat.

This rule may not apply to Advanced Martial Artists in the real world since most of them are Spiritual Mind Masters and have no obvious weaknesses in combat, otherwise, they wouldn't have come this far.

However, the Guardians of the Thirty-Three Sky Tower are different. Except for the Little BOSS Heavenly Deity every six levels, the rest are usually quite one-dimensional.

This Spiritual Mind Master was a pure Spiritual Mind Master, a Diamond Level Spiritual Mind Master.

Even if he had billions of Star Power, his melee combat was definitely not as impressive as his Spiritual Power.

Therefore, Lin Zhen's strategy was to get close to him.

After the Guardian broke the Black Hole Devour, Lin Zhen's avatar immediately launched an attack.

Because he was still some distance away, the avatar launched the Kirin Cannon!

A massive beam of light shot out of his mouth, tearing through the air, directly blasting towards the Guardian in the sky!

Lin Zhen's avatar had ninety million Star Power, the Four Elements Flower, and the Spear of Landis, which made it an impressive superweapon. Its full-power Kirin Cannon was truly formidable!

However, this still didn't pose any threat to the Guardian. A disdainful smirk appeared on his face, "Your attack seems quite impressive, but unfortunately, an attack that can't hit its target is useless."

Faced with this intense light, the guardian took a small sidestep just as the beam was about to hit him.

The Kirin Cannon missed!

However, he celebrated too soon. While he had easily dodged the Kirin Cannon, he hadn't anticipated what followed, a Destructive God Thunder!

Lin Zhen had been preparing this for a long time, knowing that the Kirin Cannon would not hit. If it had been that simple, the opponent wouldn't be worthy of being a Divine Transformation.

His real plan was to use the blinding light of the Kirin cannon to hide the black thunder!

After staying with the Fire Kirin Clan for ten months, Lin Zhen had already recovered a Destructive God Thunder. Although he only had one, it could still be used at the most critical moment.

The power of the Destructive God Thunder even outmatched the Kirin Cannon. By the time the Guardian reacted, the Destructive God Thunder was almost upon him. Not even a real God might be able to dodge it.

The only thing he could do was to activate a Spiritual Shield and take Lin Zhen's attack head-on!

A combined strike of three Destructive God Thunders was Lin Zhen's most powerful attack. Even a single shot had the potential to blast defensive spiritual objects. It wouldn't be blocked that easily.

Crack~~!!

A thunderbolt in clear skies~~!!

From the moment Lin Zhen entered the seventh level, the Guardian had always been in a superior and pretentious attitude, like a god looking down on ants, not taking him seriously.

But this thunderbolt shattered his elegance, his nobility, and his arrogance, leaving him covered in dust!

The Spiritual Barrier was broken, and although it significantly reduced the power of the Destructive God Thunder, he still got hurt.

Dark electricity sparked across his body for a while, and his blue robe was torn.

Most importantly, a line of blood trickled down from his forehead.

"Plop!"

The blood dripped onto his shoe. The Guardian slowly lifted his head, revealing eyes glowing with utter fury.

Moreover, the red bar above his head had decreased by twenty-five percent after experiencing the successive attacks of the Black Hole Devour and the Destructive God Thunder!

The two consecutive hits had shaved a quarter of his life force!

Lin Zhen's avatar didn't continue to rush forward, instead it took up a position in the void, with Lin Zhen's main body in another direction, creating a pincer formation.

At this distance, they could engage in melee combat at any time, which was what Lin Zhen intended.

Swinging the Sky-cutting Divine Sword in his hand, Lin Zhen laughed: "What a self-proclaimed divine guardian. How is it? Can you stop acting superior now and have a proper fight with me?"

Chapter 802: Chapter 805: Epiphany in Desperation! _1

After two consecutive strikes, Lin Zhen didn't feel any relief within him.

Without the use of Divine Power Pills, transforming into the Black Hole Beast and releasing the Destructive God Thunder were Lin Zhen's trump cards. However, even after being fully deployed, they nibbled off only a quarter of his opponent's life value, demonstrating the formidable strength of the God Transformation.

The Guardian was clearly furious at Lin Zhen. Since he was designed with emotions, he naturally would feel joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. Being injured by Lin Zhen, a World King, was unforgivable in his eyes.

"Kid, you're courting death!"

Roaring in rage, the Guardian finally lost control.

Ten flying knives rose from behind him, displaying the battle tactics of the Spiritual Mind Master.

A shuttle-shaped shield was hovering under his feet. The ten flying knives danced, creating a certain distance from Lin Zhen, and attacked with the flying knives.

The opponent was so adept at controlling the ten flying knives that they achieved a state of transcendence. Under the Guardian's control, five knives attacked Lin Zhen's body, while the other five targeted his duplicate.

Because of the recent Black Hole Devouring and Destructive God Thunder, Lin Zhen believed that God Transformation was not particularly strong. But at this moment, he realized just how wrong he was.

Under the opponent's restrictive knife attack, Lin Zhen didn't have the slightest ability to counterattack. Those crisscrossing flying knives were moving at the speed of light, not giving Lin Zhen any opportunity at all.

After his duplicate clad in golden scales attempted a forceful assault, the opponent's five flying knives actually combined into a giant blade, and cut down at him from mid-air, chopping the duplicate.

Unable to increase his speed or get close to the opponent, Lin Zhen's body and duplicate could only lean on each other, defending together as immovable like a mountain, resisting the attack of the flying knives.

But this way, Lin Zhen wouldn't stand a chance of victory.

The opponent's Divine's Impact still came from time to time. This battle method of attacking with flying knives while launching Mental Shocks was virtually impossible to defend.

One person, who alone was effortlessly trapping Lin Zhen's body and duplicate, showcased the formidable power of Divine Transformation.

The flying knives transformed into beams of light, incessantly flashing, and Lin Zhen's body and duplicate were constantly inflicted with injuries.

"If we keep going like this, it's not a viable option. If I can't get into close combat, I won't have any way to counterattack. I underestimated Divine Transformation. Despite being only an early stage Spiritual Mind Master, he is much stronger than a Three Flowers Realm warrior!"

Against a Three Flowers Realm warrior, Lin Zhen's body along with his duplicate would have basically been able to secure a win. But now, they were the ones being beaten severely.

Seeing the imminent disaster, Lin Zhen was determined to fight till the death.

"Cover me! I'm going in!"

Both Lin Zhen's body and duplicate exploded into action concurrently.

After the duplicate's body became golden, the spear of Landis spun like a propeller, leading the way while the body followed behind, each Lotus flower blossoming vibrantly.

Ding! Ding! Dong! The impact of the incoming flying knives made the duplicate's advance extremely arduous!

"Haha! Do you really think you have any chance of attacking when I'm treating this fight seriously? Let me show you what real God Transformation Period strength is!"

Showing a superior expression, the Guardian pointed at the empty space, and those flying knives began to shine brightly!

"Puff! Puff! Puff~!"

The scales on the duplicate changold after applying Gold were facing their bane for the first time, pierced through by those dazzling flying knives stroke by stroke!

If it were a regular Martial Artist, a series of such attacks would have been lethal.

Lin Zhen's duplicate was desperate to advance and resist, reducing the impact of the attack little by little and spurting blood as it proceeded.

The Guardian showed a cruel smile. He seemed to be playing with a string of remote-controlled flying knives. The power of each attack was astonishing and brazen!

"Ah! I won't accept this!"

The duplicate let out a miserable scream, its body rolling down. Before its death, it released a series of Kirin Guns, then it disappeared amidst the clouds and smoke, plunging straight into the undercurrent of steel beneath.

The Guardian lifted his hand, and the Spiritual Barrier reappeared. The Kirin Gun hit it with a thud, but it was unable to break it at all.

"Foolish youngster, having lost your duplicate, do you still want your body to continue struggling?"

Lin Zhen didn't say a word, but lotus flowers bloomed continuously on his body, propping him up through sheer determination.

The dazzling star-lit flying knives came at him again. Lin Zhen roared, "I'm gonna fight it out with you!"

Star Power erupted with an explosive force. A giant lotus bloomed from Lin Zhen's body, forcibly blocking the flying knives and blasted off like a cannonball towards the Guardian.

"Let's end this!"

The Guardian grew cold. He meshed his hands together and united the ten flying knives into one, forming a giant knife for a devastating strike!

"Senluo Sword Skill!"

Lin Zhen wouldn't just wait for his death. At this critical moment between life and death, Senluo Sword Skill erupted, a supreme skill from the Soul Lock Platform.

The Senluo Sword Skill consisted of four movements. This one was called the Abyss!

As the knife and sword clashed, the Guardian's united ten-blade knife was actually shattered!

Finally, with the aid of this strike, Lin Zhen managed to approach in front of the Guardian.

Although the Guardian was surprised at the power of Lin Zhen's sword, as a God Transformation Realm warrior, he didn't lose his composure.

"Do you think a Spiritual Mind Master is necessarily weak? That depends on who they're up against. A Spiritual Mind Stage Spiritual Mind Master, is more than enough to crush you!"

The Guardian's palm radiated Star Power, and with one hand he blocked Lin Zhen's sword, preparing to let the flying knives unleash another round of full bursts, determined to dismantle Lin Zhen completely!

At this point, Lin Zhen was completely open. Both of his hands were wielding the sword trying to chop down, but were blocked by the opponent's single hand.

The two people were only less than three meters apart!

Around them, the flying knives were circling and hovering. If any changes were to occur in any other direction, the flying knives would intercept at the first opportunity. This was the tactic of a Spiritual Mind Master, leaving no loopholes!

But things always happened unexpectedly.

A long spear pierced through Lin Zhen's abdomen!

The Spear of Landis~!!

Winter's Chill~!

The spear pierced Lin Zhen's abdomen, skewering him and the guardian together in a swift move.

Thud~~!!!

"Uhh…!"

The guardian spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, his prepared attack halted.

As a pure Spiritual Mind Master, he was extremely familiar with the battle methods of Psychic Masters. The sky above offered no favorable conditions, allowing him, with his strong spiritual power, to freely use it!

He had calculated everything., but had not expected Lin Zhen to take such a drastic approach!

Since the clone had no life, it wouldn't die even if it fell, which he knew. Because of this, he had been on guard but had not anticipated the clone would actually pierce through the main body, using it as a shield to block his vision. The star power of the main body blocked his divine sense, allowing the clone to make the thunderbolt strike!

The frost bloomed on his wound, sealing up the surging fresh blood at once. His red health bar above dropped directly to fifty percent!

Seeing the guardian's health value not falling for a long time, everyone knew the battle was about to end. Lin Zhen was definitely forcefully sustaining himself, and such embryonic support was probably short-lived.

No one expected Lin Zhen to actually land another critical hit on the guardian!

Completing fifty percent of the seventh level, this score exceeded Feng Qingluan, tying him for third place with Lu Yunfei from the Soul Lock Platform.

The most important thing was that Lin Zhen was still not eliminated!

Only two people were ahead of him in terms of results, Xiao Lie from Freedom City, who completed sixty-five percent, and Moses from the Twin Trees Garden, who completed ninety percent.

"Lin Zhen, strive a little harder, and you'll be in third all by yourself."

Jin Nuo spoke softly, her fingers subtly quivering. In her heart, she even hoped that Lin Zhen could create even greater miracles, but she dared not expect too much.

The guardian went mad!

After being sniped by Lin Zhen's trick, he actually let out a howl to the sky. The flying daggers didn't carry out any defensive maneuvers anymore, all emitting a diamond light, madly piercing forward and backward!

Lin Zhen's clone protected the main body immediately after succeeding in its attack, but the body that had been forged with gold was now as battered as a rag doll, tumbling down, and this time it had truly completely lost its combat power.

A wave of molten iron magma swallowed up the clone.

The main body was protected by the clone to survive that wave of attacks.

"Bastard! Damn bastard! It's too kind to just kill you. I'm going to cut you into a thousand pieces alive!"

A spiritual power cable gushing out of the guardian's outstretched hand shrouded in diamond light took to the air and charged straight at Lin Zhen!

Lin Zhen's Sky-cutting Divine Sword could not cut through the spiritual power cable, and his attempt to use teleportation to leave was interrupted by the opponent's mental shock.

"Bang~!"

The cable was like a python, tying Lin Zhen up in mid-air, rendering him immobile!

The guardian slowly approached, blood still dripping from the large wound on his abdomen. A cold gaze fell on Lin Zhen's face as he picked up a flying knife.

"Lin Zhen, can you still resist?"

"I'll dismantle your ability to resist bit by bit, so you can no longer pose any threat to me. When you're completely desperate, I'll kill you!"

Before he finished speaking, the guardian raised the knife and struck!

Lin Zhen's left hand was cut off!

"Your hands can wield a sword and emit a sword's aura, so they're a threat to me. I'm going to eliminate that threat completely!"

"Phut~!"

The right hand was also cut off.

"These are the prices you have to pay. The price you must pay for daring to attack a deity. Once your hands are gone, how can you wield your sword? How can you pick up your spear?"

"Your body is incredibly tough and strong, but I wonder if it will still have the ability to come back to life after I crush it to pieces?"

"Phut~!"

Yet another knife from the guardian lodged in Lin Zhen's chest!

"With this stab, I cut off your blood supply to the heart. You will soon feel weak and dizzy. But don't worry, this is not the end. After cutting your heart's blood supply, I will continue to destroy your eyes, ears, and your Dantian Qi Sea and Consciousness sea, leaving you without a burial ground!"

"Oh yes, I'll also make you hallucinate, so that you can deeply feel what the real end of the world is like. To let you see after you die, your body will decompose, to be gnawed on by wild dogs, and finally turn into the humblest of dirt! That's the price you pay for disrespecting the gods!"

Another stab came down!

Lin Zhen closed his eyes. It didn't matter where this knife stabbed him now. At this moment, he had no power to resist.

The God Transformation Stage is so powerful!

His Sky-cutting Sword can't be used, the two-handed Sword Gang can't be used, his spiritual power can't be used, clones fallen, power moves depleted. What else could he do?

The opponent claimed to be a god, but Lin Zhen didn't accept him as one.

The God Transformation Stage at most makes you a fake god, not even a demigod!

"Even if you are a god, I will not give up the battle! If there are gods, they can also die!"

Lin Zhen's thoughts floated in his mind and at this moment, he gained some understanding.

He hadn't yet mastered the final move of his Taiyuan Sword Skill, he vaguely remembered that the move was called God Burial!

Chapter 803: Chapter 806: Reward_1

At this moment, Lin Zhen recalled his time spent learning at the martial academy, and a coach named Li Mo.

It was from Li Mo that he had learned the essence of Sword Qi, the mantra still echoing in his ears, "No sword in hand, but a sword in the heart!"

But after gaining the comprehension of Sword Qi, where does the sword come from?

Lin Zhen slowly opened his eyes, not looking at the hideous-faced guardian in front of him, but at his own hands.

He no longer had hands, he had lost his Sword Gang, and he couldn't wield the Sky-cutting sword again.

Isn't this the perfect embodiment of "No sword in hand?"

As long as there's no sword in hand, my sword exists in my heart!

Since it exists in my heart, it can be summoned at any time for my use!

The guardian was ruthlessly attacking Lin Zhen, yet this half-dead man suddenly exuded a vibrant aura!

Lin Zhen was like a long sword being restrained, ready to break free and explode at any moment!

At this moment, the guardian instinctively felt a sense of pressure, he disregarded playing around and drew two flying blades to slash at Lin Zhen's neck. Even if he has an Immortal Spiritual Body, beheading him would end him, right?

Lin Zhen threw his head back and roared!

"Heart Sword Formless!"

"Ssssss~~~!!!"

Lines of Sword Qi burst forth from his body, like the sun breaking through the cloud cover, rays of light shining in all directions, making the demons retreat!

The guardian blinked, gave a loud shout and retreated!

Clang~!

An invisible force cut through the ropes binding him!

"Even Gods have life and death, nothing in this cosmic sky is eternally immortal, even if you are a God!"

"God Burial~~~!!!"

With a surge of Sword Qi around him, this invisible sword, under Lin Zhen's command, unleashed a strike!

Space Locked!

All the Star Power converged on this heaven and earth altering strike, the guardian didn't even manage to respond, when he saw a flash of Sword Light!

A crimson line gradually spread before his eyes, depleting all his health.

Space collapsed, light and shadow flickered before his eyes, Lin Zhen entered the eighth layer of Tai Chi Enveloping Heaven!

Within the Four Great Sacred Lands, silence reigned.

People could hardly believe what they were seeing, the news on the screen that Lin Zhen had advanced to the eighth layer!

"What the hell! Isn't it! Am I seeing things?"

"Is it real, how did Lin Zhen defeat the Divine Transformation?"

"Unbelievable! Cheating! There must be some cheating involved, those from Falling Star Lake must have rigged something, Leader Zhang Lang, you need to thoroughly investigate this!"

Zhang Lang exhaled deeply, slightly shaking his head: "It's impossible to cheat, no one could tamper with anything in the Thirty-three Heavens Tower, let's just say, we all underestimated Lin Zhen."

His gaze fell on the first place ranking, the words Lin Zhen were glaringly bright.

"I hope Lin Zhen won't choose a too good stele for comprehension, I really didn't expect to lose to Jin Nuo, Falling Star Lake Sacred Land… truly has a promising future."

Within the Twin Trees Garden, Feng Qingluan's face flushed with excitement, like a layer of rouge.

Zhou Zimei commented with a hint of jealousy beside her: "Qingluan, your man is really something, he actually defeated the seventh layer and has overridden Brother Moses."

Before Feng Qingluan could respond, Moses spoke calmly, "Zimei, don't take the win-loss too seriously, the Four Great Sacred Lands are interconnected, there are frequent contests, if one lost poise every time they lose, wouldn't it be too exhausting?"

Zhou Zimei blushed and said no more.

Lin Zhen didn't achieve much in the eighth level of Tai Chi Enveloping Heaven. This level's opponent was an Early Stage Divine Transformation Realm warrior, incredibly powerful, and unlike the useless Spiritual Mind Master of the seventh level, he was decisive and ruthless. Now, Lin Zhen had lost his clone, he can't transform into a Black Hole Beast and lost his Destructive God Thunder, he just couldn't fend off the opponent.

One percent!

He was eliminated upon achieving just one percent completion. Of course, this was partly because he didn't fight with all his strength, but even if he had, the outcome wouldn't have been any better.

That was enough.

Having been able to defeat the guardian of the seventh floor, Lin Zhen was completely satisfied. He also knew his current situation; if the spiritual mind master of the seventh floor had fought with all his power from the beginning, Lin Zhen wouldn't have had a chance.

A series of coincidences had led Lin Zhen to a realization in the virtual environment. Through the encouragement of sword intent, he understood God Burial by forming an invisible sword, and turned the tide.

At this point, Lin Zhen understood why the last move of the Taiyuan Sword Skill was called God Burial. This move was invented to counter opponents at the God Transformation Realm.

After learning God Burial, this move became Lin Zhen's greatest insight.

However, the move, Heart Sword Formless, induced by sword intent, still seemed quite vague to Lin Zhen.

Especially after he left the tower and returned to his normal state outside the virtual environment — he was completely healed, his avatar was still present, and the Destructive God Thunder was still there — he found it even harder to grasp the Heart Sword Formless.

Faintly, Lin Zhen could feel that the Heart Sword was the real essence of sword skill, sans any weapon. The move that appeared in the desperate situation in the virtual environment was hard to grasp once he left it and returned to normality.

"It doesn't matter. Since I've already had the experience of understanding the Heart Sword once, there will definitely be a next time. After trying several times, I will undoubtedly grasp this move," he thought.

At this point, Lin Zhen knew his sword skill had surpassed Li Mo's, and he had caught a glimpse of the profound knowledge behind it.

The challenge of the Four Great Sacred Lands' Tower was thus over.

With the top score among the newcomers of the Four Great Sacred Lands, Lin Zhen topped the ranking.

Becoming the top newcomer meant that he was also ranked first in the Earth Class. Lin Zhen entered directly into the Heaven Class and was ranked the first among the newcomers of his class.

However, there were not many cheers. Every competition had a first-place winner, and being top-ranked in newcomer competitions was not a big deal. After seeing the results, most of the students immediately chose to start their training.

Lin Zhen's impressive performance had indeed stimulated them, sparking their competitive spirit.

Jin Nuo personally rewarded Lin Zhen with two divine stones!

The divine stones could be used to buy some very good things or to save one's life. Lin Zhen hadn't thought of what to do with these two divine stones yet, so he put them away for now.

At the same time, Jin Nuo announced Lin Zhen's admission to the Heaven Class, where he was now allowed.

Everyone thought that the tower challenge had ended. However, after the crowds dispersed, Jin Nuo held back Lin Zhen.

"Lin Zhen, you did very well this time, so well that it was a bit beyond my expectations. Now, I have something to tell you. Regarding your score, Zhang Lang, the Holy Land Resident of Freedom City, and I had a bet. One of the terms was that if you could get through the seventh floor of the tower, you could choose any stone monument in the Heaven Class of Freedom City's Holy Land to understand."

"Oh! can I just pick?" Lin Zhen's eyes sparkled instantaneously.

"Yes, you can pick any. But Lin Zhen, you'd better be careful. Remember that the information about the stone monuments of the Four Great Sacred Lands is not available to each other. This opportunity is very rare. If you choose a stone monument that doesn't suit you, it's a real waste."

Lin Zhen thought for a moment, "Fifth Brother, do you have anything to teach me?"

Jin Nuo shook his head slightly, "Although I really want to tell you some choices, you have to do this yourself. As a resident of the Holy Land, I can't help you cheat."

Lin Zhen knew that Jin Nuo couldn't possibly help him cheat. He was just casually asking. When he heard the news, Lin Zhen had actually made his choice.

"Thank you Fifth Brother, I think I have made my choice."

"Oh, then tell me what it is. I'll have Zhang Lang listen in too."

Jin Nuo raised his hand and a screen appeared in the air. A sturdy young man in black clothes appeared on the screen, looking somewhat rebellious, but mostly inscrutable, just like Jin Nuo.

"Jin Nuo, has your Lin Zhen made his choice? You didn't leak any information, did you?"

"Of course not. I don't even know what Lin Zhen has chosen. For fairness, I invited you to listen."

"All right, let me hear what choices this genius, the first among the new students, Lin Zhen, has made. Do you need me to show you the names of the stone monuments in the Heaven Class?"

"No need, I choose the Senluo Sword Skill."

Lin Zhen got directly to the point, clearly stating his choice.

Jin Nuo was stunned, and finally couldn't resist speaking, "Lin Zhen, while the Senluo Sword Skill isn't bad, it consists of four moves. Each of the Four Great Sacred Lands has one stone monument. If you can't learn all four moves, the power of this sword skill isn't much more than that of other sword skills. Won't you reconsider?"

Zhang Lang quickly stopped Jin Nuo, "Hey! Jin Nuo, watch your words. Since Lin Zhen has made his choice, it must be confirmed. Don't beat around the bush."

Lin Zhen smiled at Jin Nuo, "Fifth Brother, it's okay. In the Heaven Class of our Falling Star Lake, there's a Senluo Sword Skill stone monument. If I study that in Freedom City, wouldn't I have two moves? Two moves of Senluo Sword Skill are not weak."

Jin Nuo thought for a moment, "Yes, I heard that the power increases twofold with each move you learn in Senluo Sword Skill. But don't think too much about it. Once everyone knows that you've learned two moves of Senluo Sword Skill, neither Fang Fei from Twin Trees Garden nor Feng Dao from Soul Lock Platform will possibly give you another chance to learn Senluo Sword Skill."

"Fifth Brother, I understand, don't worry. This is my choice."

Jin Nuo sighed, "All right, since you've made your choice, I won't interfere. Zhang Lang, send him your stone monument information."

Zhang Lang nodded. In his view, Lin Zhen's choice of Senluo Sword Skill wasn't the best, but of course, he wouldn't let Lin Zhen change his mind. He added Lin Zhen to his dimensional universe friend and sent over the information on Senluo Sword Skill.

After receiving the Senluo Sword Skill from Freedom City, Lin Zhen bid farewell to Jin Nuo.

"Fifth Brother, I'm going to practice."

"Yes, work hard in Heaven Class, Lin Zhen… I have high hopes for you!"

Chapter 804: Chapter 807: Senluo Sword Skill_1

After leaving the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower, Lin Zhen started along the mountain road to the mountain peak where Heaven Class cultivates.

People he passed along the way nodded in greeting to Lin Zhen. After all, Lin Zhen was not a one-of-a-kind person anymore. Being the first among the newcomers of Heaven Class, he could only be described as having boundless prospects.

More importantly, no one dared to underestimate Lin Zhen's strength.

Who would dare to provoke someone capable of penetrating the seventh level of the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower and defeating a Spiritual Mind Master in the early stage of Divine Transformation?

As he passed by the alchemy room, Qian Tong saw Lin Zhen and immediately turned to enter the room.

When passing by the Earth Realm of Xuan Class, Lin Zhen saw the machinery.

The machine took a glance at Lin Zhen and then tightly closed its eyes. It seemed as though it didn't notice Lin Zhen passing by at all.

From their looks, Lin Zhen felt a hint of fear.

While these two individuals would not give up on seeking revenge, at least for now, they did not dare to act recklessly. They realized that Lin Zhen, the World King, was kind of powerful. If they infuriated Lin Zhen, there probably wouldn't be a good outcome for them.

Of course, Lin Zhen would not let them off. However, the time wasn't right yet. What was most important at this moment was to seize the time to enhance his strength.

Ever since witnessing the early stage of Divine Transformation, Lin Zhen's perspective felt suddenly enlightened, and he had high hopes for his future path.

At the same time, he felt not quite satisfied with his current strength, as his realm was still too low.

Following the mountain road uphill, he soon arrived at the Heaven Class location.

The cultivating atmosphere of Heaven Class was very intense. The class had about sixty to seventy people. When the older students saw Lin Zhen arrive, none of them actively said anything. Most were so immersed in their own cultivation that they didn't notice Lin Zhen's arrival.

Upon seeing Lin Zhen, the newcomers nodded slightly. Lin Zhen saw Dongfang Yu from the Da Han Empire even bow with fist in hand, saying: "I've met Elder Brother Lin."

The students' ranking was based on their progress in the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower. Since Lin Zhen was able to penetrate the seventh layer, he was ranked above them and was the top among the newcomers.

Lin Zhen waved at Dongfang Yu: "No need to be polite, I'm younger, just call me by my name."

"Ha ha, Elder Brother Lin is very approachable." Dongfang Yu laughed.

Lin Zhen walked over, and Sun Yidao's gaze fell on him. Despite calling him Elder Brother, there was clearly a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

With nothing much to say, Lin Zhen moved ahead and reached the stone tablet of the Senluo Sword Skill.

There was no one studying this sword skill at the moment, for alone, the power of a single Senluo Sword Skill was not extraordinary.

At least in Lin Zhen's view, the power of the single Soul Lock Platform's Senluo Sword Skill that he currently mastered was not as powerful as the God Burial skill he had just learned.

Sitting cross-legged in front of the stone tablet, Lin Zhen began to delve into everything about the Senluo Sword Skill.

The Senluo Sword Skill has four moves, namely Sen, Yuan, Luo, and Yu.

Sen, called Sen Han.

Yuan, called Abyss.

Luo, called Rakshasa.

Yu, called Purgatory.

The Soul Lock Platform Sword Skill learned from Heigu was called Abyss.

The sword skill here at Falling Star Lake was called Sen Han. From Freedom City came the stone tablet, named Rakshasa.

The last sword skill called as Purgatory, Lin Zhen could not access it in Twin Trees Garden at present.

If these moves were used individually, the power would probably lie between Death, Taiyuan Sword Skill, and God Burial. The power was good, but it definitely would not reach a shocking level.

Moreover, there is no chronological order between these moves. The power complements each other. As long as one more move is learned, the power of the previous move will be doubled.

For instance, Lin Zhen has now learned the Abyss Sword Skill. If he learns Sen Han, then any of these two moves could possibly single-handedly match or even surpass the power of God Burial.

If he learns Rakshasa from Freedom City, the combined power of these three moves would be unimaginable.

The reason why Heigu wanted to infiltrate Falling Star Lake in the first place was because of the attraction of the Senluo Sword Skill, which led to his untimely death.

When he was studying the Senluo Sword Skill, he pondered the stone tablet for a full fifty years. He spent half of his time at the Holy Land on the Senluo Sword Skill. He had good comprehension skills; his case was pretty rare. Because of this, few people would spend a lot of their precious time at the Holy Land to grasp this stone tablet. Therefore, there was no one before Lin Zhen when he arrived at the stone tablet.

Moreover, the Senluo Sword Skill was unsigned, and it was unknown whose stone tablet was left here, which added more mystery to it.

After looking at the Sen Han stone tablet in front of him, and then at the Rakshasa stone tablet permanently stored in his dimensional universe, Lin Zhen decided to start understanding Sen Han first.

The Rakshasa stone tablet will not disappear from the Dimensional Universe. Even if he ever leaves the Holy Land, he can gain wisdom from it anytime, anywhere. His first priority was to master the teachings of Sen Han.

It took Heigu fifty years to understand the stone tablet. Lin Zhen believed that it would not take him so long.

Just as he was about to start training, someone suddenly called him from within the Dimensional Universe.

"Master, your friend Mitchell is calling you. Should I connect the call?"

"Connect it."

Lin Zhen was curious to know what had happened to Mitchell.

After the call was connected, Mitchell's image appeared on the screen. Judging from the background, it seemed he was outside the Heaven Class area.

"Lin Zhen, I would like to see you. Can you come out?"

Lin Zhen was taken aback. He then remembered that Mitchell hadn't participated in the trial of the Thirty-three Day Tower, and had been automatically demoted to the Earth Class.

"So you can't enter anymore?"

"Yes, those arrogant folks wouldn't let me enter the Heaven Class territory because I couldn't participate in the trial due to my injury. Once I return to the Heaven Class next year, I'll make them pay."

Lin Zhen realized that he was referring to some servants and chuckled, "Alright, I will come out now."

He left the stone tablet and saw Mitchell angrily standing outside, with two servants blocking him.

Upon seeing Lin Zhen come out, the two servants looked somewhat embarrassed, "Lin Zhen, it's not that we're unsympathetic. It's just that the Holy Land has its rules. Since Mitchell is no longer a member of the Heaven Class, he cannot enter the Heaven Class area. We are helpless…"

Lin Zhen waved his hand, saying to Mitchell, "Brother, why bother over such trivial matters? Let's go down the mountain and have a drink."

Mitchell was just a bit upset at the moment. He would not break the rules of the Holy Land. He snorted and followed Lin Zhen down the mountain.

They reached the foot of the mountain a while later. Star Picking Island is home to tens of thousands of people, equivalent to a small town with several taverns.

Finding a quiet place, they sat down.

"Lin Zhen, let's drop the formalities, and I'll just call you by your first name."

"Haha! That's better."

"Alright then, I know you're wealthy since you're a Seventh-grade Alchemist. It's quite remarkable, so I won't be polite about the food."

Lin Zhen raised his hand to indicate Mitchell should order whatever he wanted. How much could a meal cost him?

Mitchell surely didn't hold back. For starters, he ordered a steamed golden dolphin and braised flying dragon wings.

With two main courses, some small dishes and good wine on the side, the table was quickly filled with food.

Mitchell picked up his wine glass, toasted Lin Zhen and said, "Lin Zhen, I want to thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, I'd have been digested by those damned beetles. Here's to you."

He tilted his head back and gulped the fine wine worth tens of thousands.

Lin Zhen also took a shot, "No need for formalities. Anyone would have done the same. However, I'm curious about how you ended up in such a mess."

Mitchell said indignantly, "Don't remind me! I went to the Endless Star Sea with a team of friends to find a star, a Tomb Star."

"Tomb Star?" Lin Zhen was hearing this term for the first time.

"Yes, a Tomb Star, where a Demigod Strong was once buried. We planned to find his tomb but unexpectedly ran into some Angels."

Mitchell took another shot of wine, "The Angels are the most deceitful and hypocritical race. They pretended to work together with us and agreed to split whatever we found. Their previous performance seemed sincere, they even saved the life of one of our friends which gained our trust."

"But we never expected that they would ambush us when we got close to the tomb. All my friends died in there. I barely managed to hide in a tomb. They tried to get the death beetles to consume me. Out of desperation, I had to provoke my prized Wormhole Egg to escape from the Demigod Tomb. However, I was severely injured and some death beetles followed me into the wormhole. If I hadn't run into you, I would have been doomed"

Mitchell laughed a bit, "But they didn't benefit either. I took the key to the tomb. If they want to open the door, they will have to decrypt it, which will take at least ten years!"

Lin Zhen wasn't too concerned about their disputes but the mention of the Demigod Tomb piqued his interest.

"Demigod?"

"Yes, a Demigod. Those are the people who failed to break through the Divine Stone Realm, the final stage of the God Transformation. These people shattered most of their Divine Stones to survive. They permanently lost the hope of becoming gods, but they all became incredibly strong. Many believe that the most powerful beings below the gods are Demigods. Reaching the Demigod Realm is sufficient to rule the Original World."

After saying this, Mitchell whispered as though sharing a secret: "Brother, would you want to take an opportunity to go on an adventure with me? We would go there again and as long as we open the Demigod's tomb, you'll get stacks of Divine Stones!"

After some thought, Lin Zhen said, "Not right now, my focus is on training."

"I understand. You might be about to make a breakthrough. But please remember, within ten years… no, nine years, I'll definitely return to the Demigod Tomb. If we succeed, we won't have to worry about resources for cultivation in the future. As soon as you're ready, we will set off."

Lin Zhen had a long conversation with Mitchell, and finally agreed that as long as his cultivation was successful, he would definitely accompany him to the Demigod Tomb.

The two of them drank until it was dark, and finally Mitchell got drunk, he patted Lin Zhen's shoulder and said, "Brother, I think you are very incredible. I didn't participate in the challenge this time, but I'm not jealous of you. Let's drink together and get rich together. If anyone dares to not submit to you and you can't retaliate for some reason, tell me, I'll chop him up for you!"

Lin Zhen chuckled helplessly: "Big brother, don't be so barbaric."

"Hey! Don't think of me as some kind of good guy, do you know what I am? I'm a fallen angel, what is a fallen angel? It's demonic, it's corrupted, it's bad. Originally, I wasn't a good guy and I don't care about being a good guy!"

"But brother, I don't have anything good to give you, I found this in the tomb and thought you'd like it. Here, take this."

Mitchell handed a disk to Lin Zhen.

"What is this?" Lin Zhen asked.

"Hehe, this is a good thing, it's called the Heavenly Star Disk. It can observe all major celestial phenomena within a million light years. You can see supernova explosions, wormholes appearing, black holes forming, and even massive energy bodies approaching, all these could be detected. Though I'm not sure about its specific uses, I found it deeply buried in the tomb, so it's probably useful. So brother, it's a gift for you," Mitchell explained.

Lin Zhen gratefully accepted the Heavenly Star Disk, thinking that if this was Mitchell's sincerity, it would be rude to refuse it.

Especially because the Heavenly Star Disk could detect the formation of black holes, which would be really useful for Lin Zhen.

The black hole in Lin Zhen was not in its ultimate state, it also needs to evolve. If the black hole were to evolve, Lin Zhen's strength would undoubtedly increase enormously.

Furthermore, massive approaching energy bodies also meant approaching powerful enemies, it was like bringing a radar with him.

In receipt of the Heavenly Star Disk, Lin Zhen felt that good deeds will be rewarded.

They drank until late into the night. Mitchell left and didn't go to the Earth Class for cultivation. He returned to rest and heal from his injuries.

He promised Lin Zhen that he will definitely return to the Heaven class a year later and teach a good lesson to those who looked down upon him.

Lin Zhen believed in Mitchell, he indeed had the strength. If Mitchell had participated this time, Lin Zhen even doubted whether he could have gotten first place.

Upon returning to the Heaven Class, Lin Zhen slightly released his Star Power to get rid of his drunkenness.

He was about to start formal cultivation.

Life in the Holy Land was both boring and lengthy. The only thing that could add a little excitement was when someone breached a certain layer of the 33 Heavens Tower.

Compared to newcomers, the old students' results would be superior.

For example, the previous class of Lin Zhen already had someone reach the seventh layer, and someone in the top three classes had reached the eighth and ninth layers.

However, it's really difficult to reach the levels above ten. Unless your realm reaches the Divine Transformation, it would be basically impossible to do so.

And those who can surpass the Three Flowers and enter the Divine Transformation are also very rare in the Holy Land. At least the last few classes didn't have any, only a few of them were in the Heaven Class and Earth Class.

After Lin Zhen and Mitchell had a drink, he returned to the Senluo Sword Skill tablet and began a long cultivation.

The Senluo Sword Skill was a stone tablet filled with sword marks, without any text.

The person who erected the tablet had put it up, and then drew his sword at it, leaving the sword marks. Future generations could comprehend the sword skill based on the marks.

The entire tablet was densely covered with sword marks, some were deep, some were shallow, some were drawn out, and some were simple punctures leaving tiny imperceptible dots.

To comprehend the sword technique, one needed to understand the sequence in which the person who carved the stone tablet drew his sword.

This was definitely not an easy task, because these weren't just a few simple swords, there were thousands!

Just finding the first sword was a difficult process. You need to try one by one to simulate these sword techniques. Only the one that feels the most comfortable and handy could possibly be the correct one.

After successfully testing the first sword, the second sword was even more challenging, and needed to be executed in conjunction with the first sword.

What about the tenth sword? Or the first hundred swords?

Executing in sequence, slowly experimenting, simulating movements, this process was extremely complex, containing countless changes. If you didn't have adequate aptitude and talent, just this stone tablet alone could make it impossible for you to comprehend in your lifetime.

People have tried to comprehend the Senluo Sword Technique, but found it too difficult, giving up for lack of comprehension.

Only those like Lin Zhen, who have the devouring ability, dared to try the Senluo Sword Technique. He had already learned Heigu's Abyss, and now Sen Han here; the Rakshasa in the Dimensional Universe, and if he gets the opportunity to learn Purgatory in Twin Trees Garden, Lin Zhen would have learned the complete Senluo Sword Technique.

The power of this sword technique was definitely more powerful than Landis' spearmanship, even by a large margin!

The clone began a long period of comprehension, while the main body began to cultivate in the inner world.

Compared to clones' comprehension, the body's cultivation process is relatively rich.

Lin Zhen began alchemy in the inner world.

After preparing the Pill Furnace and all other necessities, Lin Zhen took out all the spare medicinal materials and made pots and pots of Elixirs.

Currently, the elixir he was refining was the Juyuan Powder, which was suitable for the Longevity Realm, and the Frost Mist Pill, which was for eliminating the side effects of Elixir.

Lin Zhen is now a Level Nine World King, only one step away from Longevity. If he could cross this hurdle, his strength would certainly soar considerably.

Despite defeating the Divine Transformation on the seventh level of the Three-Thirty-Three Tower, Lin Zhen knows that he is still far from being a match for the Divine Transformation. Even dealing with the Three Flowers Peak's Heavenly Lord would not be easy.

Without borrowing the power of his clone, he might not be able to defeat the Heavenly Lord alone.

Only by entering the Longevity Realm can Lin Zhen look down on the group of Three Flower Warriors and stand a chance against the Divine Transformation.

So, advancing to Longevity is key. Lin Zhen began to stockpile Elixirs for the Longevity stage.

Juyuan Powder, Frost Mist Pill, in addition to these two Elixirs, there are also indispensable Elixirs for nurturing Lin Zhen's internal world—Spiritual Strength Pills.

Among the Evil Star Charts in Lin Zhen's internal world, only the two largest Evil Stars, Luo Gou and Ji Du, had not been illuminated.

Lin Zhen didn't dare to think about the Luo Gou Star for now, but he must illuminate the Ji Du Star.

According to Lin Zhen's normal cultivation speed, illuminating the Ji Du star would take hundreds of years. However, he has the devouring ability of the Black Hole Beast, which allows him to cultivate with ease.

Nevertheless, even so, Lin Zhen is unsure if he would be able to illuminate Ji Du within ten years.

In the second year in the Holy Land, Lin Zhen's Realm reached the peak of the World King. But he didn't feel the overflowing Star Power that signaled a necessary breakthrough, and he hadn't fully digested the medicinal effects yet.

That year, Lin Zhen had mastered about a third of the Senluo Sword Skill.

His Destructive God Thunder also recovered the second stripe.

In the third year in the Holy Land, Lin Zhen's realm remained at the peak of the World King. His Star Power seemed to reach its peak and didn't continue to grow, yet he still didn't feel the impending breakthrough.

He had comprehended about two-fifths of the Senluo Sword Skill. This comprehension became harder as it progressed because the later stages of the Sword Skill involved more changes. Even with Lin Zhen's exceptional talent, he couldn't grasp it too quickly.

That year, his Destructive God Thunder finally fully recovered.

In the fourth year in the Holy Land, Lin Zhen fully digested the medicinal effects in his body. He was able to swallow Elixirs to break into Longevity. However, Lin Zhen didn't do that. After many perfect breakthroughs, Lin Zhen wouldn't break through easily until he had reached his optimum condition.

That year, Lin Zhen mainly cultivated his Spiritual Power. After three years of arduous cultivation, his Spiritual Power reached forty percent of the Diamond Level—effectively entering the Diamond Middle Stage.

This was mainly due to the effects of the Elixirs. Since he hadn't advanced to Longevity, Lin Zhen swallowed these Elixirs without restraint. The progress could be described as rapid.

That year, Lin Zhen had understood half of the Sword Skill.

In the fifth year in the Holy Land, Lin Zhen felt that he still hadn't reached his optimum state. However, he wasn't impatient—cultivation was always an extremely long process.

The comprehension of the Senluo Sword Skill that year slightly halted. He had previously completed half of it, but in this year, he didn't even reach three-fifths.

All the Elixirs had been refined. Lin Zhen had used up all the stored Medicinal Materials.

Because his main body didn't need to meditate often, he had some free time. Lin Zhen started to contemplate on the Shadowless Step further.

In the sixth year, Lin Zhen finally felt a hint that his condition was nearing its peak, but he was still not quite there. He wasn't in a hurry to breakthrough, as he wanted to be fully prepared for it.

That year, Lin Zhen mainly focused on nurturing his internal world. The energy in his internal world became more abundant, and the day to illuminate the Ji Du Star seemed not too far away.

He finally completed three-fifths of the Senluo Sword Skill, and the sixth pattern of the Shadowless Step was also successfully comprehended.

With this set of steps learned, Lin Zhen's agility had reached an exquisite level.

When this agility was used in combat, Lin Zhen was confident that when he returned to the eighth floor of the Three-Thirty-Three Tower, he wouldn't be easily defeated by the guards again.

In the seventh year, Lin Zhen finally sensed his Star Power no longer growing.

His Star Power approached saturation, and his Spiritual Power reached fifty percent of the Diamond Level.

However, he was waiting, waiting for the effect of nurturing his internal world.

By the eighth year, Lin Zhen's Sword Skill comprehension reached eighty percent. The nurturing of his internal world seemed to hit its peak, and the day to light up the Ji Du Star seemed to be just around the corner.

Yet, he felt as if something was still missing in his cultivation.

Until one day, he spotted a Black Hole on the Heavenly Star Disk approximately three thousand light-years away from him in the endless Star Sea!

Chapter 806: Chapter 809: Searching for the Black Hole_1

This Heavenly Star Disk was miraculous. The star map on it was similar to a type of electronic map on Earth. It could be zoomed in and out. With a gentle pull by two fingers, one could see the specific situation of a certain starry sky.

In the eyes of ordinary humans, the starry sky seems to remain eternal and unchanging.

For martial artists, this is true for most of the time. However, while humans do not have the long lifespan to wait for the changes of a single star, martial artists do.

The Heavenly Star Disk has rested in Lin Zhen's hands for seven years, and for the first time, it showed signs of change.

High up in the distant starry sky, a small pattern of a black hole was flickering. It looked like a small, black whirlwind.

The occurrence of a black hole could be the result of a star exploding and collapsing. Or it could be due to other reasons that aren't confirmed, such as an incredibly strong martial artist releasing energy at the moment of life and death, which could even be comparable to the explosion of a planet.

When Lin Zhen saw this black hole, he had already decided to go there.

A black hole is a form of energy. Devouring also requires powerful energy. It needs to grow and evolve.

And the way a black hole evolves is by devouring other black holes.

Black holes are also divided into levels. Common black holes are Constant Star Black Holes, formed by the collapse of space after a star explodes. Above the Constant Star level are Massive Black Holes.

Massive Black Holes are formed by the explosion of more than one star, resulting in a large mass space collapse, which renders the attraction of the naked singularity and the radiation zone even larger.

Above the Massive Star level are the Star System Stage collapse black holes. Their diffusion would reach a star system or even more, devouring everything within millions to tens of millions of light years, forming a true land of death.

These black holes are invincible; no amount of technology or martial force could defeat them. Unless you were able to sense their arrival and escape before they're born, once they appear, no one escapes unscathed.

Only time can bring about the demise of a black hole.

In the eternal Long River of time, black holes also have a lifespan. Once it expands to its limit and everything around it, as well as all the celestial bodies and energy, become a vacuum, the naked singularity will lose its source of power. It will gradually evolve into a white hole, growing old and eventually collapsing in cosmic space.

After the collapse, dark matter and dark energy will re-enter this space, like the grass on a prairie that starts a new season in spring.

The black hole within Lin Zhen's Dantian is considered a Constant Star Black Hole. However, it can not freely devour and grow, it is controlled by Lin Zhen himself.

As Lin Zhen's innate ability, he also wants to expand the black hole. Upon seeing this black hole, Lin Zhen decided to set off.

His strength had reached a point that was about to overflow. As long as he could light up the Jidu Star and consume an elixir now, he would surely step into the realm of longevity. However, he always felt that something was missing.

Now it seemed, if he could allow his black hole to evolve while entering the longevity stage, that would be truly perfect.

The insights from the Senluo Sword Skill were progressing more and more slowly. Although he had completed nearly eighty percent, the remaining twenty percent was the most challenging part. It was not possible to fully understand it within ten years.

However, Lin Zhen was not in a hurry. If not in ten years, then in twenty years. Twenty years would undoubtedly allow him to succeed.

Having packed up, Lin Zhen stood up.

This time, Lin Zhen had been sitting here without moving for a full seven years. He was covered in dust. When he stood up, his joints made cracking sounds.

After Lin Zhen stood up, Mitchell, who was not far away and heard the rustling, jogged over.

"Lin Zhen, have you decided? Are you considering my suggestion to go to Tomb Star? There are buried many strong ones. We could get a share of their fortunes." Mitchell kept his promise and returned to the Heaven Class the second year after he told Lin Zhen that he would be coming back. He performed outstandingly well, having defeated the seventh level, and even completed fifty percent of the eighth level.

His

Lin Zhen smiled, "I will go, but you have to wait for me to come back."

"Where are you going?"

"Just taking a casual stroll."

Lin Zhen dusted off his clothes, bid farewell to Mitchell, and then informed Jin Nuo in the Dimensional Universe about his trip.

"Lin Zhen, I have no objections to you going out, but remember to ensure your safety. Do not let anything unexpected happen. To our Holy Land, you are very important."

Lin Zhen understood Jin Nuo's worries. He confidently assured her that there would be no accidents.

Jin Nuo hesitated for a moment before she asked, "Is your realm… about to break through?"

Lin Zhen smiled. Jin Nuo was concerned about his realm breakthrough. At least, if he entered the realm of longevity, she would not be so anxious because the lifespan of a World King was limited. If they could not cross the threshold of longevity, they would certainly not achieve great things.

"Don't worry, Brother Five. I can break through at any time. I'm just waiting for the best opportunity."

"Alright then, go ahead but remember to return early. Two years from now, there will be the entry of new disciples into the Holy Land and the competition of elder disciples. It would be best if you are here for all this."

After Lin Zhen agreed, he got up and left the Stele Area and began to descend the mountain.

As he passed by the Earth Class, Lin Zhen saw Machinery again.

In recent years, Machinery had trained extremely hard. Having lost his human body and emotions, he used every single second of his time as precisely as a machine, which helped him stand out in the Xuan Class and become a student of the Earth Class.

Lin Zhen saw Machinery, and Machinery saw Lin Zhen. They locked eyes. Machinery's eyes were devoid of any feelings—cold, ruthless, just like a machine.

As he walked past the Earth Class, Lin Zhen remained alert. He knew he needed to be careful with this Machinery.

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain and passing by the Alchemy room, Lin Zhen saw Qian Tong again.

Qian Tong smirked at Lin Zhen: "Lin Zhen, long time no see. How come you're still a World King after all these years? This kind of realm won't do—weaker people will eventually be surpassed by the others in the Holy Land. If your enemies find out, they will surely come for vengeance and kill you."

Lin Zhen chuckled in response: "So many people care about my realm. Whoever wants revenge can come—I'll see if I don't squeeze their balls off."

"You… Unrefined bastard!" Qian Tong was annoyed, looking like he was about to blow his top.

Ignoring him, Lin Zhen walked out of Star-Picking Island and stepped onto a sea pig to traverse the waters.

As Lin Zhen left, Qian Tong stared at him with hatred. However, just as he seemed ready to act, Machinery came down the mountain too.

A thought struck Qian Tong. He wanted to kill Lin Zhen, and so did Machinery. If Machinery was planning to take action, he wouldn't have to. Failing to kill Lin Zhen would only invite trouble. Although Jin Nuo didn't say much about it last time, she had doubled Qian Tong's workload and demanded many saint-level elixirs as tribute to the Holy Land. This was wearing him out.

Therefore, Qian Tong had already decided: he would either not act at all, or he would kill Lin Zhen in one shot. He wouldn't get involved with others. Since Machinery was taking action, he could enjoy the show.

"Mr. Zhushan, I've made up my mind. I'll accept your condition. Please help me now."

Inside the Dimensional Universe, Machinery was communicating with an individual.

The martial artist wore loose clothing. A long knife hung around his waist while his hair was done up high. He had an icy stare.

"Are you certain you can bring me into the Holy Land of Falling Star Lake?" the martial artist that was named Zhushan asked.

"Yes. I am no longer a living being of flesh. My left eye is actually a small storage space. It can be concealed from everyone. If you enter my left eye and stay there, we can sneak past the guards into the Stele Area. Whatever you want to understand, I'll take you to it," Machinery replied.

"Good! If you can bring me into Falling Star Lake, I'll take care of Lin Zhen."

"Mr. Zhushan, I must remind you in advance. Lin Zhen defeated a Spiritual Mind Master in the early stage of Divine Transformation in the seventh level of the Holy Land, and that was seven years ago."

"Fool!"

Zhushan waved his finger: "What's worth mentioning about seven years? Besides, I know the tower of the thirty-three heavens better than you do. The defender at the seventh level has a major flaw and cannot represent the power of Divine Transformation. When I deal with Lin Zhen, you'll see what the true Divine Transformation looks like."

Machinery wasn't offended by the insult. He and Zhushan weren't in the same league. He was also burning all bridges to kill Lin Zhen for this. He was willing to risk the interests of the Holy Land.

After leaving the Holy Land, Lin Zhen traveled through a teleportation gate to the Da Qin Empire. Then he entered the Endless Star Sea via a teleportation matrix.

The destination to which he was teleported was the outpost of Qin Kingdom in the Endless Star Sea, known as the border region.

The earth of the Original World and the Endless Star Sea were separated by a Buffer Zone. The area within one thousand light-years from the Earth to the stars belonged to the Original World.

At the end of these one thousand light-years, there was a Buffer Zone spanning about ten thousand light-years. This Buffer Zone was the boundary between the two. Formed after multiple battles between the Original World and the Endless Star Sea, it was a jointly managed area.

The region was vast and sparsely populated, though it was sprawling with teleportation matrices. People from the Original World who arrived here were generally safe. However, the area beyond this Buffer Zone was a forbidden zone for people of the Original World.

The brutal species of the Endless Star Sea harbor great hostility towards people of the Original World, making it extremely dangerous for the latter to enter recklessly.

Fortunately, the place Lin Zhen intended to visit was still within the Buffer Zone, so he didn't have to venture deep into the Endless Star Sea.

Using the teleportation matrix, Lin Zhen reached the first station. Now, he was in the vast world of stars. It was impossible to see the Original World from one thousand light-years away.

The teleportation matrix's guard, upon seeing Lin Zhen teleport, couldn't dare say another word. Lin Zhen's status as a disciple of the Heaven Class of the Holy Land earned him the privilege to use teleportation matrices for free in many states.

Without paying heed to the nervous teleportation matrix guard, Lin Zhen teleported again. After a few more jumps, he was near the Black Hole Zone.

"Nine Spirits, let's go!"

The Nine-headed Lion appeared from the internal world. Lin Zhen straddled it and bolted toward the Black Hole Zone a few hundred stars away!

Chapter 807: Chapter 811: Black Hole Swallowing Each Other_1

Running through the starry sky is a very enjoyable thing, watching the stars dance, and experiencing the wonders of the universe, it gives a unique pleasure.

Lin Zhen held the Heavenly Star Disk in his hand, looking at the Black Hole Zone that was getting closer and closer on it.

In fact, he didn't need the Heavenly Star Disk anymore. With his sensitivity to the Black Hole Beast, Lin Zhen could already clearly feel the terrifying aura up ahead.

The closer he got to the black hole area, the more the aura of the black hole expanded. The two were rapidly approaching, and Lin Zhen could even feel the fluctuations coming from the black hole within his body.

After a bout of galloping, Lin Zhen lightly grasped Nine Spirits' mane and halted his steps.

Driving Nine Spirits to turn around, Lin Zhen took a glance back.

Far away was a giant snake, with a length of a hundred meters and nine heads. It was incredibly terrifying.

There were two people on the snake's body, one was a machine, and the other was a Martial Artist unfamiliar to Lin Zhen, one in the early stage of Divine Transformation.

Seeing Lin Zhen look back, the machine let out a laugh like the clanging of metal.

"Haha! Lin Zhen, you sure know how to pick your own burial ground. The scenery here is beautiful, the view is broad, and it's a perfect place to bury your bones."

"Machine, I admire your efforts to find a Divine Transformation master to fight me. You must have paid a high price, right?"

"You don't have to worry about that. A man who is about to die, why do you talk so much!"

While saying this, the machine directed at the man sitting on the neck of the giant snake: "It's your turn, Mr. Zhushan."

"You first, get down. Don't get in my way."

Zhushan was blunt to the machine, directly dismissing it.

"Wait here for me. Once I kill Lin Zhen, we will return to the Holy Land immediately."

"But Mr. Zhushan, you'd better be careful. That Lin Zhen is cunning. I'm worried that…if something happens…"

"Humph! What are you blindly worrying about? Among Martial Artists, strength determines everything. How could I possibly fall for his tricks?"

Seeing that the machine seemed to want to say something else, Zhushan, who still needed it to guide him into the Holy Land, simply said, "Okay, okay, aren't you just worried that if I die, no one will avenge you? Don't forget where we are. This is the buffer zone between the Original World's surface and the Endless Star Sea. If something unexpected happens to me here, there are other ways you can revenge."

Having said that, Zhushan handed the machine a small disk: "This disc is for insulting the Imperial Clan. If you play it here with the Dimensional Universe, the information within the disc will be broadcast and everyone around will receive it. At that time, all races within the Endless Star Sea would be attracted. If you can attract a couple of powerful ones here, Lin Zhen will surely die. Of course, so will you, because they will kill all the Ground Clan members they see."

The machine took the disc in surprise: "What do you mean, mutual destruction?"

"Yes, so you better not act rashly; inspiring the races within the Endless Star Sea will doom us all."

Having finished speaking, Zhushan, ignoring the stunned machine, drove the nine-headed snake beneath him to charge at Lin Zhen.

"Master, shall we fight?" Nine Spirits shook its big head and appeared very interested in the nine-headed snake.

"No, we will not fight for now. I have a better solution than fighting. Keep running forward and stop when I tell you to."

Nine Spirits immediately sped up, continuing to charge forward at a fast pace, aiming in the direction of the black hole.

Aside from Lin Zhen, no one else here could perceive the existence of the black hole. Without the Heavenly Star Disk, and without the pull of the black hole power within their bodies, they simply couldn't detect the danger in the distance.

Lin Zhen ran ahead, with the Martial Artist chasing behind him. They appeared like two streaks of flowing light, rapidly advancing through cosmic space.

With no need for the Heavenly Star Disk, Lin Zhen could clearly feel that the edge of the black hole was just ahead.

"Nine Spirits, when I say stop, you must immediately control the nine-headed snake so it can't turn and escape. Can you do that?"

"Master, don't worry, I was born to counteract this nine-headed snake; it is wonderful food!" Nine Spirits' eyes gleamed, he could clearly sense the surging life force of the nine-headed snake and was eager to eat it.

"Great, get ready. I will bring you into my inner world later, where you can enjoy yourself. But remember, when a black hole appears, don't be afraid."

Upon hearing the word black hole, Nine Spirits first hesitated and instinctively wanted to flee, but thinking that Lin Zhen's true form was a Black Hole Beast, he felt reassured and nodded.

"Get ready…one…two…three…turn!"

Both of the individuals, who had been running for their lives, suddenly turned around to face the chasing Zhushan and the nine-headed snake.

"Hahaha! You can't escape, prepare to die…"

Before Zhushan could finish, Lin Zhen abruptly covered him with a gravitational pull!

Lin Zhen focused the gravitational force into a line, locking onto Zhushan.

Meanwhile, Nine Spirits let out a roar, its nine heads appeared in the air, rushing out fiercely and firmly gripping the nine necks of the nine-headed snake!

The nine-headed snake instinctively coiled back, trying to bite the nine-headed lion. The two beasts began a contest of strength in the air, unable to separate!

Zhushan had anticipated countless reactions from Lin Zhen, whether to fight or flee. However, he didn't expect Lin Zhen would use gravity to trap him.

At this moment, the vigilance of the divine transformation heightened. The abnormal usually indicated dangerous, something wasn't right!

Lin Zhen had planned for so long. He would not give his opponent the chance to struggle. Gravity was colorless and formless, it could not be interrupted, breaking free is impossible in such a short duration.

His scales were golden, lotus flowers blooming, the spiritual barrier was activated. He utilized all possible defensive means to drag Zhushan, and prevent him from escaping!

At this time, a black color spreading from the end of the horizon came into view, spreading a million times faster than the black clouds.

"Black Hole~!"

Zhushan let out a desperate roar, his heart filled with desperation.

This Lin Zhen was too cunning, he had actually led him to the edge of the black hole, planning to perish together.

One cannot see a black hole. As soon as it is visible, one cannot escape because a black hole can swallow everything within sight, light is no exception.

When Lin Zhen and Zhushan saw the black hole, its gravitational pull had already reached nearby and was dragging the two entangled figures into the depths of the black hole while they spun around.

Lin Zhen released his black hole aura momentarily, blocking the black hole's pull for a moment, and took the Nine Spirits and Nine-headed Snake into the inner world of his body.

As long as Lin Zhen doesn't die, everything in his inner world is safe.

After taking away the Nine Spirits, Lin Zhen relaxed his body and fell towards the depths of the black hole.

Zhushan was unfortunate, he does not possess Lin Zhen's black hole aura to protect himself, he could only resist the death ripples of the black hole with his star power.

Even though he is a martial artist who has undergone divine transformation, he is incapable of competing against super natural powers like black holes.

His billions of star power were exhausted in a short period of time, and when his protective star power was completely drained, his body collapsed!

Within the black hole's unlimited compression, a planet could be compressed into a steel ball, and someone like Zhushan is considered less than dust and was instantly vaporized by the Black Hole, disappearing without a trace.

With his eyes closed, a small smile showing on Lin Zhen's face. Many times strength alone amounts to nothing, when someone who has not achieved the realm of invincibility thinks of themselves as invincible, they are close to death.

His body spun, entering the depths of the black hole at the speed of light.

This black hole is a constant star level black hole, stronger than the one Lin Zhen previously encountered at the Sagittarius Heavenly Gate.

The black hole is irresistible to others, but a pale light was released from Lin Zhen's body, unaffected by the deadly ripple energy of the black hole, he advanced rapidly into the depths.

About ten minutes later, Lin Zhen arrived at the core of the black hole.

This is the twisted space-time, the Naked Singularity!

The Naked Singularity wanted to devour and decompose Lin Zhen, but Lin Zhen had the same intention.

He opened his mouth, and a black hole appeared within his body.

Just a kilometer away, Lin Zhen's black hole wanted to devour this Naked Singularity!

What happens when a black hole meets another black hole?

Either I devour you, or you devour me, and then evolve into an even more formidable black hole.

Black hole energy was released, creating another black hole within this black hole. Two different yet similar forces collided, distorting time, space, and all matter, becoming bizarre and strange.

This black hole stopped its external expansion, its power receded, and it started to facilitate the mutual devouring between the Naked Singularity and Lin Zhen.

But Lin Zhen was no fool, he had experienced something like this before, this black hole was just bigger, the essence was the same, he just had to withstand till this black hole's power disappeared.

His goal was clear, to devour the Naked Singularity. Once the Naked Singularity disappeared and the distortion of time and space stopped, his devouring would succeed.

The Naked Singularity, in order to avoid being devoured, kept retracting the black hole's power, forcing Lin Zhen to devour this energy. As long as Lin Zhen's devouring reached saturation before devouring the Naked Singularity, the Naked Singularity would instead devour Lin Zhen's black hole.

After the fusion of the two black holes, it may possibly form a giant star level black hole, but as to whether other changes will occur, no one knows.

Lin Zhen was the one devouring, the black hole was the one injecting, but no matter which side failed, they would completely disappear.

From the moment of deadlock, the black hole stopped expanding and began to decline, all its power began to pour frantically into Lin Zhen's black hole!

Lin Zhen felt the power within his body began to soar dramatically!

Star power is about to break through the barrier, entering the longevity stage!

The Jidu Star within his Dantian kept flashing as if it was about to be lit!

"A little slower, slower, I always felt that there was still something missing before the breakthrough, turns out it's right here, since we are about to break through, let's make it more intense!"

Under the huge terrifying power pouring in continuously, Lin Zhen was finally about to break through the World King stage and enter Longevity!

Chapter 808: Chapter 811: Longevity! (Third Update) _1

On Zhushan's request, the machine ran far behind a large meteorite, waiting for the outcome of their battle.

When it saw the death ripples of the distant black hole spreading over, swallowing Lin Zhen and Zhushan, the machine was nearly scared out of its wits.

Of course, as a metallic machine, it couldn't really lose control of its bladder.

The machine immediately turned towards escape, but once you see a black hole, there's no running from it.

Luckily, the meteorite shielded it for a while, delaying its entrance into the range of the black hole's death ripples.

But it had already given in to despair. Whether it happened a little sooner or a little later, it would all be the same—because as soon as its Star Power was exhausted, it would face a gateless path to death.

Just when the machine was about to give up resisting, a miracle occurred.

The roaring black hole, for some unknown reason, stopped. The death ripples seemingly lost their power and quickly retreated.

The machine that narrowly escaped death tried to call out to Zhushan, but there was no response from the other side. They probably didn't survive.

The machine ran wildly for a while before pausing to look at the shrinking black hole. A feeling of unwillingness rose in its heart.

"Why am I running? This black hole has occurred so strangely; it must be Lin Zhen's doing."

"In a head-to-head battle, he's no match for Zhushan, so he probably used the power of the black hole to kill his enemy. Everyone else is doomed in the black hole, but not Lin Zhen, because he himself is a Black Hole Beast!"

"My son is already dead, and I can't have another son. And Lin Zhen saw me with Zhushan earlier. He will definitely tell Jin Nuo about this when he returns to the Holy Land… No! He might already be telling Jin Nuo through the Dimensional Universe. I will surely be punished when I return to the Holy Land; I cannot return now."

The machine quickly analyzed its situation. If Lin Zhen was still at the Earth Class level, it would have still held confidence to confront him. But ever since Lin Zhen took first place in the rookie competition, the machine no longer had the desire to compete with him. It was clear that Jin Nuo valued Lin Zhen more.

"I have no way out now. If so, I might as well go all out. Lin Zhen, what does a man with no future care about? I'll pull you down with me even in death!"

A madness flashed in the machine's eyes. It took out the disc Zhushan had given it, started playing it with its smart life function, and began broadcasting electromagnetic waves outwards.

It believed that it wasn't just people from the Original World who would be here in the Buffer Zone—the species from the Endless Star Sea would be here too.

And those from the Endless Star Sea who dare to enter the Buffer Zone would definitely be formidable forces!

So, whoever came, be it itself or Lin Zhen, would all meet their end!

This was the machine's final madness!

At this moment, Lin Zhen was facing the most important breakthrough of his life.

Out of a hundred people, there will be a hundred different personalities.

Some people have strong and tenacious willpower, useful for climbing to the peak, but these are the few.

The majority of people have somewhat lower pursuits.

But there is one process that everyone looks forward to, and that is the Longevity Realm.

Once you enter the Longevity Realm, as long as you're not killed by someone, you basically have eternal life.

99.999999% of martial artists aim for nothing more than longevity in their lifetime.

As long as they can reach the Longevity Realm, most martial artists choose to begin enjoying life. They build their own Longevity Temples, settle down in various places in the Original World, and enjoy the offerings from people. As long as they don't squander recklessly, they have an endless supply of money.

Some people live in the mundane world, enjoying the myriad experiences of life, or pursue the hobbies they had to suppress due to martial arts training, and begin a new life.

Some people become poets, some become calligraphers, some become painters, hobbyists, enthusiasts—the list goes on. Because they have plenty of time to spend, they create amazing achievements in various fields.

You can say that many notable figures in the Original World are indeed in the Longevity Realm!

There are several key turning points in a martial artist's training journey.

One is the beginner's stage, which determines whether you have the qualification to become a martial artist. This step is crucial.

Another is the Star Realm stage, which determines whether you can advance from War God to Star Realm. This is also important as it determines how far you can go in the future.

Of course, in the Original World, these two stages don't exist, because as soon as infants in this world cry out, they already have a Star Core within them.

Next is the Black Hole Period. Whether one can cross this threshold and advance to the Star System Stage is a crucial turning point for martial artists. If successful, they will enjoy a life span of ten thousand years. If they fail, they will be completely destroyed.

Lastly, there is Longevity. This is the ultimate dream for most martial artists.

This is one of Lin Zhen's dreams as well. But only one of them. Lin Zhen has even higher ambitions. He is one of those few individuals with immeasurably steadfast willpower.

Now that this day has finally arrived, Lin Zhen couldn't help but feel incredibly excited!

Only after crossing the Longevity realm could he have the qualification to pursue the peak. Without passing this stage, he wouldn't even have the chance to pursue his dream.

"Longevity Realm, here I come!"

"Not only do I want to achieve Longevity, but I also want to become the most powerful of them all!"

With the surge of Black Hole Power, Lin Zhen's strength was soaring rapidly.

At this moment, he was suppressing this overflowing power, trying to delay his breakthrough as much as possible.

But he couldn't suppress it for long. His Star Power was on the verge of breaking through, uncontrollable. When he absorbed about one-third of the Black Hole Power, the Longevity breakthrough occurred!

The limitation barrier was shattered!

By this time, all the medicinal effects within Lin Zhen's body had been fully resolved. Without any hesitation, he took out the prepared elixir and Star Crystal and swallowed it whole!

If I am to make a breakthrough, then let it be the most powerful breakthrough!

The dual increase from the elixir and black hole power launched Lin Zhen's realm sky high!

With a flash of darkness and light before his eyes, his body formed a magical cycle!

All his organs changed at that moment, these organs would never decay again, no longer subjected to the constraints of life, aging, sickness, and death. As long as Lin Zhen's soul never perished and his body never shattered, his organs would operate forever!

All the toxins, impurities, and all other harmful things in his body vanished during the breakthrough.

The star power began to soar madly, an unprecedented surge!

Lin Zhen's star power was previously 52 million, with the star power of his body and the inner world each accounting for about half.

The body had 26 million and the inner world another 26 million.

The first to break through was Lin Zhen's physical body!

Lin Zhen had found a pattern, this perfect breakthrough with overflowing star power could double his star power.

So when Lin Zhen broke through the last barrier, his physical star power soared, reaching 52 million directly!

Together with the star power of the inner world, his star power had already reached 78 million!

But this was not the limit.

Each time the World King Realm advanced a level, the star power increased by two million. However, each time the Longevity Realm advanced a level, star power increased by five million. This was Lin Zhen's standard.

The higher the base, the greater the increase.

Under the dual influences of the black hole and the elixir, his realm was unlikely to be confined to the first level of Longevity. It kept soaring.

But at this moment, Lin Zhen's Evil Star Jidu was finally ignited!

The last time he ignited the Po Jun Star, it increased Lin Zhen's star power by five million.

However, the star power of Po Jun Star couldn't be compared to Jidu.

The corner of the Jidu Star, above the Dark Star, was uncontrollably unfolded. A huge amount of star power, like a hanging Milky Way, endlessly poured into his inner world.

Twenty-two million star power!

This single star bestowed Lin Zhen with a whopping twenty-two million star power!

Thus, the star power in Lin Zhen's inner world reached 48 million. Combined with his body, the total was exactly one hundred million!

From the World King Peak to the Longevity Realm, Lin Zhen's star power had finally exceeded one hundred million!

Lin Zhen had once heard a legend that to enter the God Transformation Realm, the minimum threshold was one hundred million star power. By the standards of his present Longevity Realm, could he be considered on par with the weakest God Transformation?

Lin Zhen knew that he could not be the weakest because his breakthrough was not yet fully complete.

The star power from the elixir was still enormously huge, enough to support his continued climb to the peak!

Starting from the first level of Longevity, Lin Zhen started a breakthrough blitz.

From level one to level two, star power reached one hundred and five million!

From level two to level three, star power reached one hundred and ten million!

When Lin Zhen broke through from Field King to World King, he reached the third level of World King. But this time, with the power of the black hole supporting him from behind, Lin Zhen wouldn't stop at level three!

After reaching the third level, the power of the black hole hadn't been completely consumed, it actually took Lin Zhen straight up to the fourth level of Longevity!

Star power reached one hundred and fifteen million!

Lin Zhen's finger was trembling slightly from excitement. This was already the Longevity Middle Stage!

But strictly speaking, level four is not considered the real middle stage. Level five is the middle stage.

During the process when Lin Zhen was thinking about this, he actually reached level five!

Star power reached one hundred and twenty million!

This was something Lin Zhen couldn't even imagine before the breakthrough. He actually directly reached level five of Longevity. At this time, the power of the black hole he devoured also finally approached its end.

"Give me a bit more power, let me reach the Intermediate Peak!"

Lin Zhen thought, and swallowed the Naked Singularity, which contained the almost depleted power of the black hole, in one gulp!

The Naked Singularity contained the final and strongest power of the black hole. When he swallowed it, a miracle really happened!

The realm, which was about to stagnate, suddenly soared insanely once again, straight to level six!

Star power reached one hundred and twenty-five million!

An unprecedented power was raging inside Lin Zhen's body, a force so powerful that it seemed capable of annihilating the world!

His long hair was flying and dancing in the air. The black hole had completely disappeared. Between the heaven and the earth, only Lin Zhen was sitting there. Around him was endless vacuum!

He looked like a Demon God at that moment!

From the past life to the present, after more than two thousand years of pursuing the martial way to the peak, he finally achieved a significant result.

From this point on, Lin Zhen achieved immortality!

Chapter 809: Chapter 812: The Demon Clan from the Endless Star Sea! (Fourth update)_1

Upon achieving longevity, Lin Zhen did not immediately relax.

This was because inside his body, his Black Hole Devour had mutated after swallowing a new black hole!

A black hole can only have one Naked Singularity.

No one knows what would happen when two Naked Singularities exist within a single black hole.

Lin Zhen, too, hadn't considered many scenarios when he swallowed the Naked Singularity. He merely hoped this act would enhance his energy, making his breakthrough a bit more potent.

Thus, the new Naked Singularity became part of Lin Zhen's Dantian, an integral part of his black hole.

But the two Naked Singularities clashed.

The original opposed the newcomer, who didn't wish to obliterate itself, but instead wanted to devour the original.

Lin Zhen, of course, couldn't let the new one devour the old one. And with his help, the old Naked Singularity won.

But the newcomer didn't meet its end.

The inexistence of destruction led to submission, so the new Naked Singularity yielded to Lin Zhen's coalescence.

His method of assimilation was to exploit the Dark Star principle and hide the new Naked Singularity behind the old one, making it a shadow-like entity.

Lin Zhen couldn't consult anyone about this matter; all he could do was grope his way forward. The result was a mutation in the black hole.

The battle between these two formidable energies turned the new Naked Singularity into an ethereal shadow.

Under his Spiritual Power's scrutiny, a distorted Space Barrier existed between the two Naked Singularities; they were mutually exclusive yet also impacted each other.

By this time, the entire black hole had grown significantly, practically reaching the peak of a Constant Star Black Hole. If any more energy is added, it would become a giant star-level black hole.

When Lin Zhen tried to release the Black Hole Devour, it was still the old Naked Singularity that showed up.

Lin Zhen dubbed it Naked Singularity One.

As for Naked Singularity Two, its near-evanescent state couldn't be released externally.

Number Two could appear anywhere within Lin Zhen's field of view, almost as if it could teleport.

Lin Zhen's visual acuity at this moment could only be described as abnormal. He didn't feel the difference when he was on the Original World, but in the endless void, he could even see twinkling stars in the distance.

It wasn't merely seeing; it was akin to high-powered astronomical telescopes, being able to glimpse objects millions, tens of millions, or even billions of kilometers away!

For instance, the mountainous landscapes, valleys on a planet – unreservedly visible!

Within his sight, Naked Singularity Two could appear anywhere and then emit terrifying Death Ripples!

This was a specific ability generated by the mutation of the black hole, the ability to teleport and devour!

However, Naked Singularity Two was simply an accessory, and it didn't possess the robust devouring power of Number One.

The devouring power of Number One could ingest anyone with Star Power under Lin Zhen's level. That means anyone with less than 250 million Star Power can't resist Lin Zhen's Black Hole Storm.

While the devouring power of Number Two was on par with Lin Zhen's Star Power, capable of ingesting anyone under 125 million. This was a form of long-range weakening.

But for Lin Zhen, this was already sufficient. At least no one weaker than him could escape his field of vision.

This breakthrough induced a revolutionary transformation in Lin Zhen's strength.

Besides the significant upgrade in his body and the mutation of the black hole, Lin Zhen experienced an extraordinary change.

That was the transformation of his doppelganger.

The Five Elements Kirin, while making the main body breakthrough, also followed the path of shattering barriers, entering the Three Flowers Realm.

Lin Zhen's doppelganger previously possessed 90 million Star Power. Upon entering the Three Flowers Realm, its Star Power didn't see a terrifying increase as the main body did, only increasing by 30 million.

After all, it wasn't a real lifeform, this 30 million increase was already a vast achievement.

However, it then progressed smoothly into the sixth level of the Three Flowers Realm. With each level raising the Star Power by 10 million, its Star Power surged to a horrifying 170 million!

Although the total growth wasn't as substantial as the main body, Lin Zhen was already utterly satisfied.

From now on, this body can at least accompany Lin Zhen to reach the peak of God Transformation. This was the best scenario for the doppelganger.

With this transformation of the doppelganger, Lin Zhen was confident enough to clash with those in the early stages of God Transformation without failing.

After the breakthrough frenzy, Lin Zhen needed some time to stabilize his realm. He unmovingly stationed himself here, letting the surging Star Power gradually mound within his body.

Within the endless starry expanse, a long line of vehicles was moving along.

These were not ordinary vehicles; they were all prison wagons!

Each cart was pulled by a giant black triangular Barbarian Bull. These bulls were all black, with three horns on their heads. Their only eyes were bloody red, and they stood over ten meters tall. Their muscles bulged, and they were swaying their whip-like tails around, appearing like beasts from the age of the great flood.

At the front of the cart was a driver, each one a supreme expert in the Three Flowers Realm, leading the triangle brute bulls onwards with a thorny whip.

The cart was made of metal framework, but the middle was not a metal guardrail. Instead, there were laser columns driven by energy, creating a protective shield for the cart.

These laser columns had extreme high temperatures and corrosion, making any approach impossible.

Each prisoner vehicle held one prisoner.

The prisoners all had a very special status, as they all had one thing in common: they were all wearing dragon robes!

All the prisoners were emperors!

This even included Emperor Zhu Ziheng of the Da Qin Empire!

Zhu Ziheng was also a Three Flowers Warrior, but his head was currently held outside the prisoner vehicle, firmly fixed, while his body was inside the vehicle, unable to move at all.

The demeanor of the emperor was nowhere to be seen. His head hung low, his face ashen, his dragon robe tattered, and the many wounds on his body were unattended.

Behind him were emperors from many other countries.

Da Han, Da Tang, Da Ming, Da Zhao… each one was the emperor of a major country in the Original World, none were from a small country like Nanliang.

The line of prisoner vehicles stretched for more than ten kilometers, amounting to a thousand vehicles!

Next to the prisoner vehicles, there was a convoy, with the lowest ranked soldiers being from the Longevity Realm.

But these soldiers looked huge, fierce, with curved horns on their heads and protruding tusks, more terrifying than the beast clans of the Original World.

If anyone familiar with the Endless Star Sea saw them, they would recognize that these soldiers were part of the Demon Clan.

The Demon Clan was a race that existed under the Imperial Clan, known for their savagery, brutality, and inhumane nature. In ancient times, they were the sworn enemy of humans.

The Demon Clan was later subjugated by the Imperial Clan. After losing the war with the Ground Clan of the Original World, they followed the Imperial Clan into the Endless Star Sea, and have virtually disappeared from the surface of the Original World.

Only in some local circuses and performance venues, one might occasionally see a weak Demon Clan slave, who was nothing like these Turbo-charged warriors.

At the end of the troop, there were several three-headed hellhounds.

These hellhounds were incredibly large, pulling a large luxury vehicle behind them, the carriage of which was a small palace.

Inside the palace, a Demon Warrior with horns on his head was resting with his eyes closed.

By his side, there was a group of Human Clan members, dressed in disarray, but evidently held status and position in the Original World.

Among them were eunuchs, officials, Imperial Palace guards, and even empresses.

They were all humans, but they all shared a common identity, they were the spies of the Endless Star Sea in the Original World!

A beautiful palace lady bowed to the Demon Warrior and said, "Lord Jitilu, following your instructions, we have captured all the emperors of the countries in the Original World that resist the Endless Star Sea the most, totalling 1,400 people!"

Jitilu opened his eyes slightly: "They all have been caught?"

"Most of it. These countries are the most active against us, pushing their countries to resist us. Of course, there are far more countries in the Original World resisting us, but capturing so many people all at once is really difficult, so we had to target key figures."

"Hmm, you've done well. Once we capture the emperors of these countries, their successors will not dare to openly oppose the Endless Star Sea."

The lady was pleased to receive Jitilu's praise: "Yes, when a bunch of mediocre successors assume power, the threat to us will be significantly reduced. Their defenses will decline, and one day we will surely lead our troops back to the ground!"

"That's not your concern." Jitilu's face darkened.

Those who originally wanted to ask for credit withdrew, fearing that they would cause trouble and bring about their own doom.

But Jitilu was in a good mood today, and didn't bother arguing with these lowly humans.

They had been preparing for this day for too long.

They had been planting agents in the Original World since millions of years ago.

These agents have been numerous, some were successful and even became emperors, like Qin Wushang.

Some became ministers, some became guards, others became empresses, and even those who had been castrated millions of years ago entered the palace as eunuchs, gaining the emperor's trust.

The successful agents were cultivated to the end, intending to capture the emperors one day.

This operation was very successful, capturing more than a thousand emperors. Believe that after these people were taken away, the resistance and defense against the Endless Star Sea in this large area would be greatly weakened.

Perhaps it won't be long before the Endless Star Sea clans return to the surface.

"While you guys were fighting tooth and nail on the battlefield against the elites of the Original World, you failed to see that I, Jitilu, made the greatest contribution. When I return to the Endless Star Sea, I will definitely be heavily rewarded!"

Just as Jitilu was indulging in his fantasy of a beautiful future, his intelligent life form suddenly alerted him.

"Master, there is an unknown radio wave nearby, it seems to be related to the Endless Star Sea, do you want to receive it?"

"Hmm? There is a radio wave in this godforsaken place? Let's have a look, maybe before we leave, we could catch a big fish or two."

Jitilu sat up a little straighter, as a super expert of Divine Transformation, he was very confident. There were too few people in this land who could resist him.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 810: Chapter 813: Deliver to the Doorstep_1

Jitilu activated the radio wave.

The content of the radio wave was received within the Dimensional Universe.

This wave was a propaganda film, quite like the numerous ones distributed throughout the Original World. It painted the races of the Endless Star Sea as brutal, ugly, and despicable.

Scenes of wars unfolded, every race from the Endless Star Sea was depicted as loathsome. They burned, murdered, looted, and committed every imaginable crime, posing a massive threat to the beings on the surface of the Original World.

The Demon Clan was portrayed in a clownish role, even depicted as a dog led on a leash by the Imperial Clan, with the face of the dog resembling that of a generic member of the Demon Clan, vaguely similar to Jitilu.

Jitilu's expression darkened as he watched.

"Investigate! Find out where this radio wave is coming from!"

"Yes, my lord. The source of the wave is nearby, not too far from us. We should be able to find it soon."

"Damn it! Once I find them, I will tear these vile creatures into pieces!"

Feeling insulted, Jitilu bristled in fury and began tracing the source of the radio wave.

The person who emitted the wave was utterly brazen, making no attempt at hiding their location, which was soon pinpointed by Jitilu.

"My lord, the source of the wave is around four million kilometers to our left."

"Order the fleet to halt. The first squad, follow me. Let's see who's causing trouble here!"

A thousand Demon Clan warriors, trailing behind Jitilu's palace carriage, whooshed towards the source of the radio wave.

The Demon Clan arrived rapidly, the strides of their Hellhounds were so long that they spanned thousands of miles!

It hadn't been long since the machine emitted the radio wave. He didn't even know if anyone would come. He did it hoping to take revenge on Lin Zhen, not expecting to attract such a group.

When the Demon Clan appeared in his view, he didn't have time to escape.

A gigantic Hellhound charged towards him. The machine, so engrossed in terror, momentarily forgot about its plan to die with Lin Zhen and turned to flee.

However, the Hellhound didn't give him a chance to escape. One Hellhound lunged, capturing the machine in its maw!

The massive fangs clamped together, and sparks flew from the waist of the machine as the metal twisted. It looked like the machine would be shredded to pieces!

The machine felt no pain, but it knew if this continued, it would certainly be devoured by the Hellhound. In this critical moment, the machine cried out loudly, "You can't kill me, I'm here to help you!"

"Stop!"

Inside the mobile palace, Jitilu casually raised his hand, and the Hellhound ceased its devouring action.

"Grrrr."

The palace gate opened, and the Hellhound, with the machine clenched in its jaws, delivered it straight to the entrance.

The machine saw many human-like beings standing left and right within the palace, and a senior demon, who appeared very powerful, sat in the center.

"You just said you came to help us? Be clear. If there's anything I'm dissatisfied with, you'll be dog food!"

"Yes, yes, yes~!"

Seeing a glimmer of hope to stay alive, the machine's previous courage to die with Lin Zhen had long flown away. "My lord, you are from the Endless Star Sea, correct?"

"Of course, have you ever seen such a mighty army on the surface of the Original World?" a human sneered at him.

The machine had even met this human before, who seemed to be a guard leader in the Qin Palace, though he didn't understand why he was here.

Now was not the time to pursue these questions. The Machine urgently said, "Since you hail from the Endless Star Sea, I wonder if you've heard of Lin Zhen."

"Lin Zhen! Which Lin Zhen are you talking about?" Jitilu seemed momentarily stunned, then abruptly stood from his seat. With a wave of his hand, the machine was pulled from the Hellhound's mouth and laid in front of him.

The machine fell to the ground, twisted its neck and looked up, "Which Lin Zhen could I be talking about? Of course, Lin Zhen, who ousted Qin Jianfeng in the Divine Punishment Star, and unmasked the identities of the Imperial Qin family."

"I know this Lin Zhen. What are you trying to say?" asked Jitilu.

"I've grown weary of life on the surface of the Original World. As long as you allow me to enter the Endless Star Sea, I can tell you Lin Zhen's location. He's nearby and might leave soon."

Jitilu appeared unfazed, but his heart churned with excitement.

So, Lin Zhen was nearby. This was indeed excellent news.

The incident with Qin Jianfeng had left the forces of the Endless Star Sea at somewhat of a disadvantage, since their most optimally positioned chess piece had been rendered useless.

Of all the spies planted by the Endless Star Sea, Qin Wushang was the best. The emperor of the largest empire on the surface was an essential position, but it became compromised due to his son.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Lin Zhen was an enemy of the Endless Star Sea.

If he could capture Lin Zhen, that would indeed be a massive accomplishment.

As for this thing in front of him, which he couldn't tell whether it was human or machine, it meant nothing to him. It didn't matter if it stayed, and it could be killed at any time too.

"Can you locate Lin Zhen now?"

"I can try."

Jitilu gestured for the machine to proceed. The machine's heart lifted with joy. This meant that Jitilu believed his words. He might succeed in taking revenge and no longer needed to die.

He directed his gaze towards the direction where Lin Zhen was situated, which was the previous location of the black hole.

The previously terrifying black hole had completely disappeared, leaving no trace to be seen.

The mechanical eye rotated briefly, a metal compound eye appeared at the center of his forehead, emitting a faint red light, significantly enhancing his vision.

The nebulous starscape progressed layer by layer, his eyes acted like a high-powered telescope.

Jitilu and others looked at the robot with interest, they found this robot somewhat intriguing.

"Oh… sure enough, he's here, Lin Zhen!"

Within the compound eye, Jitilu saw Lin Zhen sitting cross-legged in the distant void, seemingly cultivating.

"Master, I have found him!"

The robot raised a hand, a virtual screen popped up, displaying what he saw.

The scene on-screen was incredibly clear; they could even see the detestable face of Lin Zhen.

"Master! It is indeed Lin Zhen, it is him, I came from the ground, I recognize this person."

"That's right, I can confirm, Lord Qin Wushang had to leave the Qin Kingdom due to this man, I was just a common guard in Qin Palace at that time."

A ferocious smile appeared on Jitilu's face: "Good! This journey wasn't for naught, we have indeed found a big fish. Let's set off now, and capture Lin Zhen."

"Everyone, heed my command, move forward immediately, don't make a sound to alert him, quietly lay a trap, I want him alive this time!"

The three hellhounds were spurred, let out earth-shaking roars, quickened their pace and bolted towards Lin Zhen.

The warriors of the Demon Clan were waving their big axes, war hammers, and steel pitchforks, they moved out from both sides, ready to block Lin Zhen's escape route.

The robot let out a long sigh of relief, thinking that it had finally managed to survive.

Then Jitilu looked at him, his gaze filled with a cold glimmer.

"This being sent signals to insult my Endless Star Sea race. His crime is unforgivable. Take him out and feed him to the dogs!"

Several War Generals of the Demon Clan in the Three Flowers Stage immediately scrambled to him, grabbed the robot and took it outside.

"Master! Just now you accepted my suggestion, I brought the news of Lin Zhen…."

"Humph! What you've done isn't enough to forgive your crime, you should be thankful that you are not made of flesh and blood, otherwise, I would have my lads tear you to pieces!"

The robot gave up all hope, didn't put up resistance, and let the Demon Clan generals drag it away.

When it saw the mouth of the hellhound opening and closing, the robot muttered in a low voice: "Ye Hua… my son… I have finally avenged you!"

The turmoil within Lin Zhen's body finally began to subside.

After achieving longevity, the world within his body did not expand. If anything had changed, it was the atmosphere of this place.

The previous world was roughly equivalent to the New World, not an excellent place for cultivation, such a world could hatch a World King at most, it is impossible for a longevity to appear.

But now, his world has reached the Original World level and became a Holy Land for cultivation.

In his Dantian, within the black hole, beads such as pearls floated within the black hole.

One among them was the largest and brightest, it was Lin Zhen's Kirin Bead. The star pearl that he had previously received had become denser due to the dark energy and dark matter that fused into the hole when the new black hole integrated.

Those smaller beads floating around could not be ignored either, each bead was a neutron from the black hole, highly compressed.

Each bead, regardless of the size represented a planet.

His spiritual power was fluttering among these beads, engaged in a great cultivation practice.

Transforming his Galaxy Domain!

Lin Zhen's previous Galaxy Domain consisted of planets condensed by spiritual power. Although they could explode, their power was not great, therefore, he had discontinued using them long ago.

What he intended to do now was to replace those virtual planets with these Kirin Beads.

No need for explosions, gravitational distortion will be enough!

Unlike a normal Gravity Field, such gravitational distortion is even more terrifying than the sharpest knife in the world.

Imagine being squeezed by the gravity of two stars, the situation of people trapped inside would be horrific.

Moreover, it was not just two stars, inside Lin Zhen's black hole, there are hundreds of these neutrons!

Even if Lin Zhen couldn't control all of them at once, controlling a dozen or two dozen was not a problem.

The Spiritual Power was constantly fluctuating, trying to gain control.

"This is about the limit, twenty-eight, that's the maximum number of Kirin Beads I can control. However, I can still arrange a galaxy with that."

Lin Zhen withdrew his hand, his gaze directed at the distance, which was the direction of the Demon Clan.

His eyes glowed, revealing a playful smile on his face: "Such a gang of criminals!"

Chapter 811: Chapter 814: Welcome to the Original World_1

The Demon Clan's team finally approached Lin Zhen.

Knowing that their opponent was Lin Zhen, the warriors of the Demon Clan were somewhat excited.

Killing or capturing a person they despise always feels better than killing an unknown nobody.

So when they surrounded Lin Zhen, everyone wished they could be the first to rush out and capture Lin Zhen.

Everyone was waiting for Jitilu to give the order.

This was Jitilu's first encounter with Lin Zhen.

In the eyes of some in the Endless Star Sea, "Lin Zhen" is just a symbol.

A minor figure who, though not powerful, inadvertently ruined their plans.

Because they are enemies, the Endless Star Sea and the Ground Clan of the Original World do not share information, the Ground Clan are unaware of the internal affairs of the Endless Star Sea, and the Endless Star Sea is ignorant of the situation of the Ground Clan.

A buffer zone of ten thousand light years, along with an endless battlefield spanning billions of light years, completely isolates the surface from the interior of the Endless Star Sea.

At least in the eyes of ordinary people, the ground of the Original World is a very distant place, so distant that they may never reach it.

After Qin Jianfeng failed and returned to the Endless Star Sea with his son, Qin Wushang, they specifically mentioned Lin Zhen, therefore Lin Zhen has some minor fame in the Endless Star Sea.

Upon seeing Lin Zhen, Jitilu simply thought of him as a fortunate weakling who could be instantly killed.

Just as he was about to issue the order, the Dimensional Universe communicator suddenly rang.

The Dimensional Universe Company of the Endless Star Sea and the Dimensional Universe Company of the Original World's Ground Clan are not the same, but the technology is similar, and they do not communicate with each other.

As he connected to the Dimensional Universe, a woman appeared on the screen.

"Welcome, Xiaoe sister!"

The woman was dressed in a light green dress, not luxurious, but had a cold and superior aura.

Even though her realm is only of the Three Flowers and her status is only that of a maid, Jitilu must greet her with respect, because she belongs to the ruling class of the Endless Star Sea – the Imperial Clan.

"Jitilu!"

Xiaoe's soft voice rang out.

"Has your convoy already set off? How did this operation go?"

"In response to Sister Xiaoe, the mission has been successfully completed. This time, we captured 1,400 emperors from the Original World, all of them are the emperors of the main nations. They have all been put into prison cars, currently proceeding in the Buffer Zone, expected to pass the Buffer Zone in 47 hours."

"That's not right!" Xiaoe snorted through her nose: "I have already asked about your departure time. You left 36 hours ago and there have been no fights along the way. According to the speed of the Triangle Barbarian Bull, you should have already completed 45% of your journey. Deducting the distance covered by the teleportation formation, you should be able to pass through the Buffer Zone in at most another 45 hours. What were you doing in those extra two hours? Were you messing around with the beauties of the Human Clan?"

As she spoke, Xiaoe's face grew colder: "Jitilu, you better give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise I will report this to Qingqiu Mountain and let the Imperial Concubine decide."

Jitilu hurriedly defended himself: "Sister Xiaoe, you must let me explain. I did not deliberately delay the march. I know how important this batch of prisoners is, but we had some issues half-way…."

Jitilu relates the matter about the mechanical video disc, explaining the whole journey in detail.

"Finally… we arrived here, meeting this person called Lin Zhen."

As he spoke, Jitilu linked the Dimensional Universe display: "Sister Xiaoe, take a look, this is the one who's caused a lot of controversy on the surface of the Original World. It is said that he is the most wanted person in the Original World, but no one dares to cause trouble for him since he joined the Falling Star Lake Holy Land."

The woman called Xiaoe apparently knew about Lin Zhen.

When she saw Lin Zhen, who was sitting in the void in the Dimensional Universe, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Oh! This is the guy who caused Qin Jianfeng's elimination, good! I won't pursue your unilateral change of route this time, you act immediately and capture this person for me."

"Understood, Sister Xiaoe, that… dead or alive?"

"Of course alive, don't tell me you cannot accomplish that."

"Sister Xiaoe, please rest assured, capturing a mere Longevity Realm individual is as easy as turning a hand!"

Wanting to show off in front of Xiaoe, Jitilu waved his hand at his subordinates: "Go, capture Lin Zhen! Alive! If anyone accidentally kills him, I'll feed them to the dogs!"

Long impatient to act, a group of demons, upon receiving the command, roared and rushed towards Lin Zhen.

The Demon Clan's weapons all had powerful destructive power, such as war hammers, giant axes and so forth.

At this moment, any other person probably would have stood up to meet the enemy, but Lin Zhen was still sitting there, unmovable.

This left the rampaging, weapon-wielding demons somewhat at a loss. Jitilu desired him alive, naturally they could not bring their weapons to bear, but when they reached Lin Zhen's side, they didn't know what to do.

"Tie him up! Use a rope to tie him up!"

A small demon clan leader shouted, and the surrounding demons clumsily pulled out ropes, preparing to tie up Lin Zhen.

At this moment, an unexpected change suddenly occurred!

The starry sky around them suddenly changed its scenery.

Previously, the stars around them existed in a vacuum-like state, with no celestial bodies visible, even dark energy could not be sensed.

If it were not for the fact that these warriors were in such high realms, they would not be able to survive here, this is a barren place devoid of any life.

And now, stars suddenly appeared all around!

Within a ten thousand meter diameter, planets began to materialize!

Planets of myriad colors, some even encircled by halos, emerged.

"What the hell is this?" The demon clan underling stalled for a moment, adopting a defensive position, yet did not feel any discomfort.

"Ignore all that for now, we need to capture Lin Zhen first."

The demon clan continued to take action.

Before they could even lasso Lin Zhen, a terrifying event took place.

Those of the demon clan who were within the range of the star space suddenly felt an unbelievable amount of immense power rushing at them from all directions!

This power was simply insurmountable. All they could perceive was that the points of origin of this power were those planets. Why these planets were emitting such considerable power was beyond their understanding. Nor did they have the time to ponder over it.

Because under the compression of such enormous forces, they died!

Without any act of resistance, without even a peep, they were brutally crushed by innumerable tremendous forces. In an instant, all were reduced to a pool of blood!

It was as though a pile of beans were crushed into thin wisps by countless massive iron plates. So thin that they defied belief. With the slightest breeze, they vaporized and disappeared!

Of the demon warriors who entered this star space, there were about 500 in total, all of whom vanished instantly!

One could not comprehend how they died without slowing the scene by thousands of times.

The people were dead, yet the star space remained!

This shockingly horrifying scene left everyone stunned.

"Thi-thi-this… this is a domain!" stuttered Jitilu, finding it unbelievable, as he pointed towards the scene from the inside of the Hellhound-drawn carriage.

As a powerful warrior who had undergone Divine Transformation, he could discern that this was the deployment of a domain. Others couldn't even make out that much.

Perhaps some noticed, but they dared not believe that Lin Zhen could wield such a formidable domain!

Xiaoe, who had been observing all this time, now looked grave: "I am certain that Lin Zhen has a God Transformation Realm expert with him. Jitilu, can you handle it?"

"Don't worry, Xiaoe. We demon warriors don't give up so easily!"

Jitilu pointed at the coachman: "Release the Hellhounds, I want to see what tricks Lin Zhen has up his sleeve!"

The coachman flicked the reins, issued a command, and several Hellhounds immediately roared and charged towards Lin Zhen.

These Hellhounds were incredibly powerful. Although they were of low intelligence, their strength was unquestionably superior to that of the Three Flowers Warriors. When three, three-headed Hellhounds teamed up, even those who'd undergone Divine Transformation had to be cautious of them.

The Hellhounds rushed into the star space, twisting and turning at high speed. Although the gravitational force was powerful, it most definitely didn't reach the speed of light. As long as they weren't interfered with, they could avoid it.

But just then, a thunderous roar echoed, and a massive nine-headed lion appeared!

This nine-headed lion was so majestic, with black manes wildly flying from each neck, its giant body over forty meters long. It was a God Transformation Realm Super Star River Beast!

This was Lin Zhen's steed, a mutated Super Star River Beast, the nine-headed lion, Nine Spirits!

Nine Spirits had killed the nine-headed snake in Lin Zhen's inner world. Both the nine-headed lion and nine-headed snake were very similar, each being a great nourishment for the other. Having devoured the nine-headed snake, Nine Spirits experienced an evolution and entered the God Transformation Period!

The appearance of the nine-headed lion caused the three Hellhounds to tremble instantly.

The strength of the nine-headed lion was slightly superior to theirs, causing the Hellhounds to be a bit wary.

Yet, at the coachman's command, the three Hellhounds pounced and began to snap at the nine-headed lion.

Each Hellhound had three heads, so when the three Hellhounds worked together, ordinary Star River Beasts couldn't withstand their attacks.

But the nine-headed lion was different. With a couple of shakes of its large heads, it managed to suppress the Hellhounds' attacks and a brutal battle ensued between the four fierce beasts in the void!

Seeing this, Jitilu finally grew restless.

"Xiaoe, I miscalculated a bit here. I didn't expect Lin Zhen to have a nine-headed lion as an ally. I'm afraid the Hellhounds can't hold it off unless I step in myself."

"Go ahead, you absolutely can't fail. Remember, Qingqiu Mountain is still waiting for the return of these criminals."

"Understood! I will personally go and capture Lin Zhen and that lion."

Jitilu abruptly stood up, ready to dash out of the palace.

Before he could exit, a giant beam of light suddenly blasted over!

"Not good!"

Jitilu felt a chill crawl up his spine and he immediately leaped into the air and blasted a hole through the roof of the palace to escape!

But his palace carriage was blasted apart by the attack!

The palace was blown apart, and over on the other side, Lin Zhen finally opened his eyes. His mouth slowly closed, the beam of light just now having been fired from his mouth.

"Welcome to the Original World, you ugly freaks of the Endless Star Sea!"

Xiaoe, currently in the Dimensional Universe, witnessed with her own eyes as Lin Zhen pointed his middle finger at them.

Chapter 812: Chapter 815: Just Practicing! (Third Update)_1

After Lin Zhen launched the Kirin Cannon, Jitilu realized, Lin Zhen was not the weakling he had imagined.

Today, he might have bitten off more than he could chew!

However, as a super strong one with Divine Transformation, Jitilu couldn't believe that he would not match up to a Warrior at the Longevity Stage. He needed to prove it with his own weapon.

His weapon was an Opensky Axe, he pulled it out, and even before he landed, his axe was already slashing down!

"The Human Clan, are a race that don't even qualify as slaves. On what grounds do they occupy the lush land of the Original World? Lin Zhen, die!"

As this sentence was spoken, Lin Zhen's face turned cold.

This Jitilu was doomed today!

With the Sky-cutting Divine Sword in hand, Lin Zhen took a step forward: "Looking for death!"

The Opensky Axe whizzed down. Lin Zhen danced aside with the Shadowless Step, easily evading the opponent's blow, swinging his Sky-cutting sword back into position.

Jitilu realized something was amiss when Lin Zhen disappeared, but he didn't panic. He bent his body and swept his axe back like a flash of lightning.

Lin Zhen disappeared again!

The Shadowless Step was not a single step, but one with many variations. The first pose was one step, the second had three steps, and the third had ten steps.

Lin Zhen had mastered six forms of the Shadowless Step, with as many as ten thousand steps under his footwork.

When fighting someone, if Lin Zhen didn't want to be attacked, the opponent wouldn't even be able to touch his clothes.

Jitilu wielded his brute strength, turning it into a sky full of axe shadows, but Lin Zhen remained calm and composed under his barrage. No matter how much Jitilu roared, he couldn't harm Lin Zhen in the slightest.

The more he couldn't hit Lin Zhen, the more Jitilu couldn't afford to stop his attack, because he knew that facing an opponent with such elusive footsteps, he couldn't give his opponent the chance to strike first. Once his opponent took action, he would be too late to defend or dodge, so he could only keep up the pressure.

Another thing that worried him was Lin Zhen's domain. Keeping up a high-intensity attack was also a way to crack the domain. As long as every single one of his strikes could rip the space apart, Lin Zhen's domain couldn't be released.

But maintaining this pressure would consume a considerable amount of Star Power and physical strength. So much so that after a minute of crazy attacks, Jitilu was already drenched in sweat!

At this moment, he even regretted that his weapon was a heavy one. If it was a sword, he wouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation.

What confused him even more was how Lin Zhen, who was just at the Longevity Stage, could push him to this extent.

A dog howl of agony came from afar, a three-headed Hellhound that was fighting the Nine-headed Lion finally couldn't resist and was bitten to death by the Nine-headed Lion.

Jitilu was greatly shocked in his heart. If the Nine-headed Lion killed three Hellhounds and then turned to besiege him with Lin Zhen, things could become tricky.

He could no longer hide his abilities, he had to pull out all the stops.

"Heavenly Demon Tyrant Body~!"

With a roar, his body swelled up like a balloon, and his muscles started to expand rapidly, gaining an unbelievable amount of strength.

His face, neck, and veins were all protruding, making him look extremely ferocious.

This was a trick to stimulate the physical strength, capable of greatly enhancing his fighting power.

"Lin Zhen! You have forced me to use this move. You are worth dying for!"

He raised his big axe, ready to launch the most ferocious attack.

A glimmer of cold light flashed before his eyes.

"God Burial~!"

The just triggered Heavenly Demon Tyrant Body was cut off by Lin Zhen with one sword stroke, taking off an arm!

"Idiot, knowing I use the Shadowless Step, you dare to stop your rapid attack. Is this not seeking death?"

With Lin Zhen's successful sword, his body once again rushed forward like lightning. The sword light in his hand was flying, and Sword Gang appeared.

Another sword swept across Jitilu's head. The opponent let out a scream as one of his Demon's Horns was cut off by Lin Zhen!

With the loss of one arm and one horn, Jitilu finally came to his senses. He is no match for Lin Zhen.

Although he still couldn't understand why Lin Zhen was so powerful, and that the surging Star Power and powerful Spiritual Power, none were below his.

But it didn't hinder Jitilu's decision—to escape.

Since he was not an opponent, he couldn't stay here and send himself to death. He had other important tasks to complete—rescue the caravan and take away the thousand Emperors.

"Everyone, attack Lin Zhen and kill him, regardless of whether he's dead or alive!"

Jitilu gave the order, and all the Demon fighters who were still watching the battle from a distance, including his driver, a Three Flowers Peak, all rushed forward.

Even the Human Clan traitors who were inside the palace carriage were also ordered by Jitilu to fight.

An army of thousands attacked from all directions, making a grand impact.

Jitilu, noticing that Lin Zhen didn't seem to pursue him, quickly made his escape.

"Sister Xiaoe, I'm not retreating because I'm scared. It's just that I have a convoy to escort here, and there cannot be any problem."

The woman called Xiaoe's face turned pale, "I understand, move faster. I see that your subordinates won't be able to hold on for much longer. Truly, Lin Zhen's reputation is well-deserved. He is indeed capable."

Jitilu, with one hand clutching his broken horn, made a hasty retreat, soon leaving the battlefield.

Before leaving, he even heard the second Hellhound's scream, realizing that the situation had become irreversible.

While sprinting back to the front of the troop, he suddenly halted.

He was taken aback to see that apart from the prisoners in the caravan, everyone else had disappeared!

There were about ten thousand people in the escort team this time. He had taken a thousand men to hunt Lin Zhen, where were the remaining nine thousand?

He took a couple of sniffs, smelling a faint scent of blood.

The blood of his own clan!

They had been killed!

Once he realized what had happened, fear flashed in Jitilu's eyes. Even if it were him, it was impossible to kill nine thousand Demon Clan warriors in such a short time. Who did this?

While he was terrified, he saw Lin Zhen, holding a long spear, appear from behind a prison cart, like a ghost.

"Jitilu, your subordinates aren't challenging at all, they were easily taken care of."

"Lin Zhen! How are you here? Where are my men?"

"Heh! You audaciously dare to capture over a thousand emperors from my Original World, how could I not come here? As for your men…"

Lin Zhen suddenly spat out a storm of glares towards Jitilu, which made Jitilu dodging in panic, even getting hit brutally a few times.

"With just a barrage of these bullets, I've taken care of them all."

At this moment, Jitilu finally figured out the problem.

When Lin Zhen had just used the Kirin Gun, he felt Lin Zhen's star power was definitely above his!

No wonder he wasn't a match.

By the time he realized this, it was too late. Lin Zhen had closed in on him like a phantom, and with the long spear in his hand blooming into a deadly plume of flowers, a wave of powerful firepower swept over!

Summer Stream Fire!

Flames erupted in the void, absolutely unstoppable!

Jitilu swung his axe with a single hand and managed a few desperate blocks before being pierced with several holes. The flame in his wounds was even spreading.

A ferocious look appeared on Jitilu's face. He couldn't take these emperors away now. Since he couldn't take them, might as well kill them all!

Killing these emperors would mean most of the mission was completed. After all, even if these emperors were brought to the Endless Star Sea, they would be executed after being interrogated.

With a thought, he pulled a remote control from his bosom.

Once he pressed the button on it, the circular hole on the prisoner carriage separating the body and the head would close, cutting off all their heads!

Seeing this, Lin Zhen, of course, wouldn't let him have his way. The long spear shot forward like a venomous dragon, aiming to pin his hand!

However, Jitilu had already made up his mind and was prepared for it. A red light flashed on his chest that emitted a light shield strong enough to resist Lin Zhen's fatal spear strike!

Without any pause, Lin Zhen let his divine infant out, completely ignoring the shield's obstruction, and went straight for Jitilu's Spiritual Consciousness Sea!

At this moment, if Jitilu wanted to kill these emperors, he would have to let Lin Zhen's divine infant kill him. He wasn't willing to die just like that – he needed to return and receive the merits from this major accomplishment, how could he die here.

"Lin Zhen! Farewell. Bury these headless emperors back home!"

With a bang, Jitilu disappeared into a puff of green smoke.

Shadow Demon Teleport!

This was a unique method of the Demon Clan, unlike spiritual power teleportation, it was their innate teleportation method, instantly teleporting him a hundred thousand kilometers away!

One hundred thousand kilometers away, Jitilu appeared, with the remote control still clutched in his remaining hand.

"Lin Zhen, go home empty-handed!"

He fiercely pressed the button!

At this point, Xiaoe, who had been in communication with him through the dimensional universe, suddenly screamed: "Watch out above you!"

As Jitilu looked up, he almost puked his guts out.

Because he saw a black hole!

Above his head, a black hole was spinning. It was just born.

Once he saw it, it was impossible to escape.

The remote control in Jitilu's hand was sucked away by the strong pull of the black hole, and Jitilu couldn't control his body either. His star power, as high as one hundred and twenty million, couldn't even stabilize his stance. With a scream, his body spun and fell deep into the black hole!

What was even more pathetic was that he had been maintaining communication with Xiaoe at this time.

"Sister Xiaoe! Save me! I don't want to die…!!"

Xiaoe felt a chill run down her spine as she watched Jitilu's death throes. She didn't understand how Lin Zhen managed to do it all.

A powerful talent like Jitilu had died with his eyes wide open, unable to even fight against Lin Zhen.

"Jitilu, rest assured, I will report this matter to the Empress. The people of the Endless Star Sea will avenge you!"

"No! I don't want to die… save… save me…!"

The signal in the dimensional universe was cut off, completely blocked by the black hole. Jitilu's body was torn apart by the black hole's gravitational pull, disintegrated, and dissipated into the universe!

Chapter 813: Chapter 816: Imperial Decree 1004_1

After killing the God Transformation from a hundred thousand kilometers away, the surge of Star Power in Lin Zhen gradually calmed down.

It wasn't the clone that killed Jitilu, but his main body. Even though Jitilu was quite far from Lin Zhen's main body, he was still within Lin Zhen's line of sight. At the moment of his teleportation, Lin Zhen had marked him. The second Naked Singularity was activated, and Jitilu, far away in spatial distance, was killed.

"Nine Spirits, let's go check it out."

The Nine-headed Lion had killed three Hellhounds. Three Hellhounds, nine heads, were just perfect for him to restrain. Content with devouring the Hellhounds, he quickly swallowed them all upon Lin Zhen's call.

After continuously devouring the Nine-headed Snake and Hellhounds, Nine Spirits was now robust and hearty, carrying Lin Zhen towards the prisoner's carriage.

With the appearance of the main body, the clone automatically returned to the inner world.

After walking a circle around the prisoner's carriage, Lin Zhen approached Emperor Zhu Ziheng of the Qin Kingdom.

"Emperor of Da Qin, I hope you're well!"

"Cough… cough…! Lin Zhen, save me!"

"Lin Zhen, come here and get me out."

"I am the Emperor of Da Jin, Lin Zhen come save me quickly."

"I am willing to regard you as the National Master, Lin Zhen, come to Da Zhao, hurry and free me!"

"I…..!"

Feeling overwhelmed, Lin Zhen pressed down on both hands and roared, "Everyone, shut up!"

Feeling his master's annoyance, the Nine-headed Lion also gave a furious roar. The aura of the God Transformation beast silenced everyone.

"You all should be more restrained, and stop the annoying 'I' nonsense. Remember what you are now. You are prisoners, not exalted emperors. Don't put on any imperial pretenses before me."

All these emperors slightly wrinkled their brows, not expecting Lin Zhen to dare scold them.

Even though he was a Holy Land student, he wasn't a Holy Land Resident. As rulers of significant kingdoms, they didn't really value the status of a Holy Land student.

Of course, Lin Zhen saw the thoughts of these emperors and snorted coldly. "It seems you still can't see the situation clearly. Here is the Buffer Zone between the Endless Star Sea and the Original World's surface. Your country's surveillance systems can't see your situation. And look at…"

Lin Zhen's gaze swept a circle: "Many countries here even put a bounty on my head, right? Like this Emperor of Da Wei, you're allies with Da Liang, right? You were part of the bounty on me. Tell me, should I save you?"

The Emperor of Da Wei just moved his lips, not knowing what to say. If he had known it would come to this, why would he have helped Nan Liang put a bounty on Lin Zhen?

"And then the Emperor of Da Qin, Da Qin's hostility towards me is not small. As the emperor, shouldn't you be responsible for this? Should I let you go back and continue to have your Qin Kingdom oppose me?"

Zhu Ziheng felt somewhat wronged, thinking to himself that Lin Zhen offended people of the Qin Kingdom before he took office. How could they blame him?

But now all of them were in the prisoner carriage. After recognizing the situation, no one dared to oppose Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen looked around and saw that these emperors had lost their pride. He nodded with satisfaction.

"It's not impossible for me to let you go, but, I, Lin Zhen, am no saint. Freedom can be granted, but you must agree to my conditions."

"What conditions? Just say it. I… no, we agree."

Zhu Ziheng was the first to respond.

Lin Zhen said, "Very simple, each of you has to announce to your citizens that I, Lin Zhen, will become an honorary citizen of your country, enjoying all public facilities of your country and your subordinate countries for free, and having priority privileges in all public places. This isn't too difficult."

"Not difficult at all, it's too simple!"

"I… I agree, Mr. Lin Zhen, you will absolutely be an honorary citizen in Da Jin, enjoy VIP treatment. The royal family will take care of all your expenses in our country!"

"I also agree, same for us in Da Ming. I can grant you the identity of an honorary citizen in our Dimensional Universe. Da Ming and our four subordinate countries will always be your friends."

"I will announce to the people of Da Qin as soon as I return, anyone who dares to oppose Lin Zhen will be treated as a comrade of the Endless Star Sea. They are clearly members of the disgusting Imperial Clan and will not be forgiven!"

"Yes, yes, yes! I'll announce it as soon as I get back!"

Emperors in the nearby carriages were all talking at once, Lin Zhen nodded in satisfaction.

"Great, also, alas, funds have been a little tight recently. I believe your majesties can provide some support." Lin Zhen finally revealed his true intentions. These were all emperors, super fat sheep, who, if not properly exploited, would be wasted treasures from this rare opportunity.

"No problem, but we are being restrained now, the Dimensional Universe can't be opened. As long as you, Mr. Lin Zhen, let us go, I personally am willing to transfer you 100 billion as a thank you!"

"Same for me, 100 billion!"

"I also want 100 billion!"

These emperors were quite clever. No one was raising the price high, to avoid becoming a target.

However, Lin Zhen simply waved his hand. Too much money would provoke jealousy. One hundred billion was not a small amount for anyone. Each person could give 10 billion, and there were 1,400 emperors here, which would make it 14 trillion.

He was busy with cultivation recently and didn't have much time to earn money by alchemy. This would save him a lot of time.

When he stated that each person only needed ten billion, the emperors, who were initially agonized, were actually somewhat grateful to Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen waved the Sword Gang in his hand, cutting open each prison carriage and freeing these emperors.

Those who could become emperors of a kingdom were basically Three Flowers Warriors, with very strong recovery methods. They certainly wouldn't be lacking medicinal resources.

So, after Lin Zhen released them, the emperors each swallowed their medicines, meditated, and quickly recovered.

Sitting on Nine Spirits' back, Lin Zhen watched these emperors in dragon robes, finding the scene quite strange.

After a while, the first emperor transferred the funds to Lin Zhen.

He published his Dimensional Universe account number, all of the emperors added Lin Zhen as a friend, and billions were transferred over one after another.

The notification constantly pinged, and soon, Lin Zhen's account held a staggering fourteen trillion!

"Hehe! Your Majesties, wealth is extrinsic after all. I must not forget your life-saving grace to me. The things you've promised me must be done soon."

Emperor Zhu Ziheng of the Qin Kingdom was the first to leave a message in the Dimensional Universe and on the Qin Kingdom forum.

"I am Emperor Zhu Ziheng of the Da Qin Empire, now issuing a royal decree. As of now, I appoint Mr. Lin Zhen, the current Holy Land Warrior of Falling Star Lake, Fire Kirin Clan Leader, and Great Elder of the Alchemist Guild from our four subordinated countries, East Qin, West Qin, South Qin, North Qin, as an honorary citizen of Qin Kingdom. Within our territory, all public facilities are free for Mr. Lin Zhen, and he even has the priority to use them."

"All Qin people must not hold any hostile attitude towards Mr. Lin Zhen or they will be accused of colluding with the Endless Star Sea races. All allies of Qin Kingdom should also offer all public services to Mr. Lin Zhen for free. Any costs incurred will be reimbursed by the royal family of Da Qin Empire. Decree issued!"

Once this order was out, it shook the chaotic Original World.

The disappearance of more than a thousand emperors was unprecedented in the Original World.

Each emperor held an invaluable position, each leading a massive empire with four subordinating kingdoms and managing billions of citizens.

The disappearance of one would've been acceptable, but the simultaneous disappearance of 1,400 emperors sent shockwaves through the Original World.

Each emperor's disappearance was not a coincidence. Those close to them also disappeared, clearly indicating a planned action.

Apart from the Endless Star Sea, no one could have achieved this.

Countless armies began their operations, trying to trace the whereabouts of the emperors, but after such a long preparation, how could the other party let them catch up so easily?

Everyone knew that these people had fled to the stars, but the stars were too vast to locate them.

Just as people thought that the field of the Original World was about to undergo political shifts, Emperor Zhu Ziheng of Qin Kingdom issued a royal decree.

Everyone knew about the conflict between Lin Zhen and Qin Kingdom, but it was breathtaking that Zhu Ziheng would declare Lin Zhen an honorary citizen at this time!

Had Zhu Ziheng been kidnapped by Lin Zhen, forcing him to issue such a decree?

Before their shock could end, the second decree appeared.

This time, the decree was issued by the Emperor of Da Zhao.

The content of the decree was identical to what Zhu Ziheng had issued. Qin Kingdom was simply replaced by Zhao Kingdom, and Zhu Ziheng's name was replaced by his own.

If Zhu Ziheng possibly being kidnapped by Lin Zhen was plausible, then it wouldn't make sense for the Emperor of Da Zhao to be kidnapped too.

Qin Kingdom and Da Zhao were separated by vast mountains and rivers, it would be impossible for Lin Zhen to kidnap both at the same time.

But this was just the beginning.

Following Qin Kingdom and Da Zhao, Da Han, Da Ming, Da Jin, Da Liao, Da Wei… The emperors of major nations in the Original World issued decrees one after another.

The content of the decrees was the same for everyone, completely copied from Zhu Ziheng's decree without any changes.

1,400 national emperors, with even 5,600 dependent states underneath them, along with their alliances, each country had dozens of allied nations. Thus, in an instant, Lin Zhen gained the privileges of nearly hundreds of thousands of states!

At first, people were shocked, then they became numb.

In the end, some even doubted whether their Dimensional Universe systems were broken?

Some suspected it was a joke. How could so many emperors simultaneously announce such astonishing news? Wasn't Lin Zhen some form of currency to be loved by all?

Note that Lin Zhen's status isn't as simple as being an honorary citizen. No one could even offend him, or else they would be treated as rebels in the Endless Star Sea. This wasn't a citizenship, it was practically deified status!

Many people immediately went to verify the identities of the emperors, but the verification results were undeniable. Apart from the emperors, no one had the authority to issue decrees on the forums of their own countries in the Dimensional Universe.

This was true!

All of this was true!

It wasn't an illusion!

All over the Original World, countless people stood with their mouths wide open unable to close them, completely unable to comprehend what had just happened.

Chapter 814: Chapter 817: The Secret of the God Crystal_1

After these emperors had issued their decrees, they returned to their own kingdoms.

Behind Lin Zhen's Dimensional Universe identity, there were countless titles that even he lost count of.

Being an honorary citizen of over a thousand kingdoms, this probably was unheard of in the Original World's history.

There were now over a thousand new friends in Lin Zhen's Dimensional Universe, and all of them were Emperors – a truly staggering collection of companions.

"Nine Spirits, let's return to the Qin Kingdom."

In this situation, there were benefits and drawbacks. I'm afraid my Endless Star Sea might be in trouble soon.

However, the benefits were significant. At least on the surface of the Original World, Lin Zhen had become a heroic figure.

Saving one emperor is a great deed, but he had saved over a thousand at once. The merit of such an act was hard to measure.

For now, put those thoughts aside. Lin Zhen planned to go to the Qin kingdom to buy something he had been wanting for a long time – a Wormhole Egg.

Creating a Wormhole Egg was complex and difficult, and one would cost six to seven hundred billion. Selling it for a thousand billion was not considered overly expensive.

To return to the New World and bring his family members there, Lin Zhen had been thinking about this item for a long time. Now that he had achieved Longevity, the timing seemed about right.

He passed through the buffer zone and returned to the surface via the teleportation matrix.

Now, Lin Zhen felt extremely comfortable using the teleportation matrix. Regardless of whether there was a line or not, he could be the first to use it, and it was completely free of charge.

Two days later, Lin Zhen was back on the streets of Qin City.

The Wormhole Egg he had ordered on the way was ready. Upon his return to Qin City, he immediately met up with the merchant to receive the eggs.

He ordered five at once. Five thousand billion was a huge amount for others, but not too much for the current Lin Zhen.

With the Wormhole Egg in hand, Lin Zhen didn't immediately return to the New World.

He was somewhat hesitant. When he goes home, he doesn't plan to go back alone. He should go back with Little Phoenix and Xuan'er. That would truly be a family reunion, otherwise, they would surely blame him.

Xuan'er was in the Alchemist's Guild, so Lin Zhen could find her at any time. However, Little Phoenix was not easy to find.

To see her, he would have to wait until the next gathering of the Four Great Sacred Lands in the following years, which would coincide with his tenth year in the Holy Land.

"Or should I wait another two years?"

Lin Zhen felt the pull of his emotions at being so close to home, yet so far. The things he often wished for made him hesitate more when they were within reach.

Just as Lin Zhen was indecisive, a notification chimed in his Dimensional Universe.

The person sending the message was Mitchell.

"Little brother! You did something big this time, rescuing all the captive emperors at once, you've truly done something outstanding!"

"Heh, big bro Mitchell, it was just luck, nothing significant."

"Hey! Don't be modest with me. There definitely wouldn't have been just Longevity Three Flowers guarding these emperors in the Endless Star Sea. There must have been Divine Sense transformed ones among them. You were able to save people from these powerhouses. It's not chance, it's about power."

Lin Zhen chuckled without addressing this directly. He knew it was because of his strength, but there was no need to flaunt it.

"Come over. Dongfang Yu, Sun Yidao and I are at the Wild Rose Restaurant in Qin City, waiting to give you a welcome party."

"Oh! That is a great honor. I'll be right there."

Over the past few years in the heavenly class of the Sacred Lands, Lin Zhen, Mitchell, Dongfang Yu, and Sun Yidao had become good friends. They got along well with each other, so it was not surprising that they wanted to host a welcome party for him.

He arrived quickly at the Wild Rose Restaurant using the free teleportation matrices along the way.

A seductive waitress with long legs and curvy waist came over to guide Lin Zhen.

"Mr. Lin Zhen, you are our most esteemed guest at the Wild Rose Restaurant. If you have any needs, please let me, Karina, know. I will assure to meet your requirements."

Lin Zhen glanced at the waitress, nodded slightly, and handed her a Crystal Coin.

A Crystal Coin, that's a million!

Kalina's eyes immediately lit up, "Mr. Lin Zhen, what can I do for you?"

"I need you to serve the dishes quietly and refrain from speaking unnecessarily. Can you do that?"

Kalina's face flushed, she lowered her head and dared not to flirt again.

This Lin Zhen, seemed different from the other men who would freeze in their footsteps at the sight of her.

Upon opening the door to the private room, he was greeted by Mitchell and the others.

"Haha! I guessed right, didn't I? Brother Lin Zhen has indeed broken through. When he left the Sacred Land, I knew this was going to happen. Huh…!"

Mitchell hesitated for a moment before suddenly bolting over to give Lin Zhen a once-over, "Damn! You actually reached the sixth level of longevity? Am I blind?"

Meanwhile, Sun Yidao and Dongfang Yu stared with their mouths open, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Fellas, there's no need for such shocked expressions. It's just a fortunate coincidence," Lin Zhen said calmly.

It wasn't until Lin Zhen sat down that Mitchell spoke morosely, "You really know how to crush someone's spirit. I've known you since your time on the Divine Punishment Star when you were just a World King. At that time, I was at the Three Flowers Peak. Then you moved up to be the World King, and I still remained at the Three Flowers Peak. Even when you reached the World King Peak and took first place in the Tower of Heaven competition, I was still at the Three Flowers Peak."

"It wasn't until three months ago that I finally made a breakthrough to the Divine Sense Transformation stage. But surprisingly, you jumped to the sixth level of longevity. I'm guessing that if we don't see each other for another decade, you could possibly advance to the Three Flowers tier, huh?"

Those present were all outstanding individuals of their generation. They entered the Sacred Land at the Three Flowers Peak and advanced to the Divine Sense Transformation over these nearly ten years.

Some old students were even overtaken by their progress which is why Jin Nuo said this year's students generally had unusually high potential.

Dongfang Yu sighed at this point, "The talents of our brother Lin Zhen are uniquely unparalleled within my experience."

Sun Yidao nodded in agreement, "Absolutely. Before arriving here, I thought highly of myself and regarded all heroes as beneath me. But when I got here, I finally realized that there is always someone better. Especially with our brother Lin, he has completely changed my understanding of the term 'genius'."

"Ha! Are you guys trying to flatter me into loosening my purse strings? Well, you can't do anything to me. Just order whatever you want to eat or drink."

Mitchell raised his glass to clink with Lin Zhen's, "Don't treat us like gold diggers. We can afford a meal. This meeting is both to welcome you and to discuss something."

Lin Zhen took a bite of food, "Go on, what do you need my help with?"

"You remember that matter I mentioned before about the Demigod Tomb? I told you I had taken the key to the tomb, but the door can only be opened by cracking a password."

"Didn't you mention that opening the door would take ten years?"

"Yes, my Dimensional Universe Intelligence calculated that if we were to attempt cracking the password one by one, it would take ten years to go through all possible passwords. But Brother, we can't possibly wait for ten years. More than eight years have already passed and if we head for the Tomb Star, we would still need to come back. Before ten years are up, we need to return to the Sacred Land for the big competition among old students. So if we want to go, we need to leave now, or we won't make it back in time."

"Are Dongfang and Sun brothers also coming along?"

"Yes, the more people we have, the more strength we can muster. The two of them have had recent breakthroughs as well, becoming Divine Sense Transformed individuals. Heading there together will increase our chances."

Lin Zhen closed his eyes, drumming his fingers lightly on the table.

According to Mitchell, the Demigod Tomb was sure to hold some valuable treasures.

Because the so-called demigod arrived at the planet in a perilous state of being near death, he left his legacy on the Tomb Star.

The power of a demigod is unimaginable, and so is his wealth. However, Lin Zhen was not easily swayed by these.

He wished to go back to the New World as soon as possible and bring his family over.

As for wealth, he had no shortage of it.

Upon seeing Lin Zhen seeming to hesitate, Mitchell added, "Bro, I know you're an alchemist and you don't lack money. But I will mention something that can't be bought with money."

"What's that?" Lin Zhen inquired.

"God Crystal!" Mitchell revealed.

Dongfang Yu and Sun Yidao gasped in astonishment, their eyes gleaming with anticipation, as if this were something extremely rare.

Lin Zhen was taken aback, "Who's crazy? Brother, isn't it a bit crazy to talk like this?"

Mitchell nearly spat blood, "Brother! I meant 'crystal' as in a crystal stone, not 'crazy' as in mad. Are you trying to infuriate me?"

Only then did Lin Zhen realize his misunderstanding, but he genuinely had no idea what a God Crystal was. Out of curiosity, he requested, "Would you do me the favor of explaining?"

"I'll do it, I'll do it."

Dongfang Yu waved his fan, "Let me explain this. Speaking of the God Crystal, it's simply extraordinary."

"When we use the term God Crystal, we're actually referring to the World Stone within us. Brother Lin, you must know that the three stages of the God Transformation, which are Divine Sense Transformation, God Realm Transformation, and Divine Stone Transformation, are known collectively as the God Transformation. When you reach the peak of the Divine Stone Transformation, that becomes a martial artist's final breakthrough and the path to become God!"

"Once successful, the divine stone will transform into a tiny crystal. The World Stone becomes the Divine Stone, the Divine Stone becomes the God Crystal, and when the God Crystal is finally formed, one becomes a God!"

Lin Zhen was enlightened. His training duration had been brief and he hadn't communicated much with others, so he genuinely didn't know about these high-level cultivation secrets.

Dongfang Yu continued, "For countless years in the Original World, there have been quite a few people who have become gods. But are gods immortal? They are not. Even if they extend their inner world outward, all they can do is to keep their soul from extinguishing. But their divine bodies will disintegrate, and rebuilding is far from easy."

"Most importantly, their God Crystals, once lost and taken away by others, can be refined."

"What? You're saying God Crystals can be refined?" Lin Zhen asked.

"Absolutely!"

Mitchell chimed in at this point, "As long as you've reached the Divine Stone Peak and feel that your hope of becoming God is slim, there is another way, and that is to refine a God Crystal to become God. As far as I know, this demigod gained a God Crystal and wanted to become a god but was almost killed while being chased down. Finally, he fell at the Tomb Star."

Mitchell then leaned in towards Lin Zhen, "Brother! A treasure that can make you directly become god, do you think that's important?"

Chapter 816: Chapter 819 Original World Visitor_1

At this moment, no matter what anyone was doing, everyone stopped and looked up as the sky opened.

Within the dark and deep celestial canvas, the wormhole seemed like a horrifying maw, emitting an aura foreign to the New World.

Whizz~~!!

Shadows emerged from the celestial void.

A few burly individuals with stern expressions walked out of the wormhole.

Their outfits appeared somewhat peculiar, bearing similarities to mercenaries, yet clearly they didn't seem to belong to the New World.

Out of all these people, the weakest among them was also at the Longevity Realm.

A tall and hefty man, assumed to be the leader and holding the position of Three Flowers Peak, walked out of the wormhole and looked down.

He waved his hand in front of his nose, "The smell of the New World is truly off-putting, ugh. The air… just look at it! It's so polluted, everywhere is this damned industrial stench. It's not even as good as the toilets in our hometown. No wonder not a single Longevity Realm can emerge here."

A robust man at his side said, "Leader Vislan, that is how the New World is, the aura of cultivation isn't that strong here, the spiritual aura between heaven and earth is also exceptionally thin. Their technological development is good, but it restricts the pursuit for their own limits. It's a case of the tail wagging the dog. That's why there are so many people wanting to break through the Heavenly Gate and leave."

"It's merely a bunch of ignorant aborigines. Seeing them any longer will just sully my eyes."

Once Vislan finished speaking, he looked behind at his companions, "Are we all here?"

"Yes, all twelve of us from the Mercenary Corps, not one less."

"Then let's prepare to take action. This time, our employer provided us with a two-way wormhole egg and substantial payment for an extremely easy task. We cannot mess this up."

"Boss, is our employer so rich that they don't know where to spend their money? They are paying us so much to just capture a few people who at most are the Domain Kings. Are they out of their mind?"

"Idiot! What do you know? Do you know who we are supposed to catch? It's Lin Zhen's family. Lin Zhen is now thriving in Falling Star Lake; once he graduates from the Holy Land, he'll be a major deity in the Original World. Capturing his family has significant implications, do you still think this is easy?"

One of his subordinates, who had been scolded, paused, "Then what should we do? Should we retreat?"

Vislan sneered, "Why would we retreat? It won't be that easy for Lin Zhen to grow smoothly, there will naturally be people dealing with him, and once we capture those people, we will return to the Original World. Even if Lin Zhen is powerful, he can't possibly find us. Since we're here in the New World, how can we not enjoy ourselves?"

One of his subordinates' eyes lit up, "That's right, we are the strongest here in New World. We should truly enjoy ourselves and show these plebeians what the experts of the Original World are capable of!"

"I want to set up an arena here, deliberately attracting the strong ones of the New World to challenge us, and then strip them of all their winnings, hahaha!"

"I want to court girls, wherever there are beautiful girls, I'll grab them. I couldn't act recklessly in the Original World, but here in the New World, I can be unrestrained. If anyone dares to stop me, I'll kill them!"

"I want to be the emperor. I'll directly find a country's emperor to kill, take up his position, and experience controlling the life and death of millions of people. It's a unique experience!"

Seeing these mercenaries going out of control, Vislan knew they were going to cause havoc.

But it didn't matter. In a place like the New World, they could freely enjoy themselves, possessing absolute martial force, they wouldn't care about anyone.

"Go have fun but remember one thing. There are a few places you can't touch, such as the subsidiary of the Dimensional Universe Corporation, the branch of the Universe's First Bank, and the arena's branch. These places are all owned by giant corporations, they definitely have connections with the Original World. As long as you don't touch these places, you can do whatever you want everywhere else."

"Oh! Thank you, Boss! You really gave us a vacation? You are so generous!"

Vislan chuckled, "Of course, I am a generous boss."

One of his subordinates asked, "Then boss, what about you? What do you want to play?"

"I'm not as frivolous as you guys. I have serious work to do. I'm worried that Lin Zhen's family will be very vigilant. I'm making all of you go play exactly for that reason—to draw the public's attention and make them think we are just some playboys from the Original World. But I'll quietly go… "

"We understand, Boss! You deliberately did not go directly to Lin Zhen's hometown so as not to alert them."

"Of course. As a leader, I did my homework before coming here. Lin Zhen's hometown has excellent defense systems. To go there unnoticed, we need a legitimate identity which won't arouse suspicion. This Andromeda Galaxy is the closest galaxy to the Milky Way, but it's still an external galaxy. How could his family possibly pay too much attention to affairs in an external galaxy."

"The boss is brilliant!" The mercenaries all gave a thumbs up.

One mercenary said, "Then Boss, I'll go first. This is such a colorful world, I have to go enjoy myself."

Vislan glanced into the distance, "I'm afraid you'll have to wait a little while. There's a slight problem."

Several mercenaries followed Vislan's gaze and saw a swarm of military flying saucers rapidly approaching from the distance.

"Aha! How are such ancient and stupid machines capable of being used in combat? Moving as slow as a snail and looking like a coffin."

As they were speaking, the Andromeda Star's military had already moved into place. A hundred saucers surrounded them, and some ground anti-air weapons quietly aimed at them.

"Listen up people ahead, this is the capital of the Andromeda Galaxy, Fairy Star. Please identify yourselves, state your purpose, and submit to our investigation. Otherwise, we will interpret your actions as a provocation and will retaliate decisively… I repeat, people ahead, listen up…"

"Such an annoying swarm of flies!"

A mercenary from the Longevity Realm frowned, and swung his long sword. A streak of sword light split the air and turned the military UFO, which was speaking, into scrap metal!

The burning UFO, broken and battered, crashed down from the sky.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Prepare to fire!"

Before the UFO could fire, ten mercenaries surged forth. They slaughtered the approaching military forces in the sky as if they were chopping up vegetables, wiping out hundreds of UFOs.

The enemy's rampant actions plunged the ground into chaos, and people were running around in panic.

"Where are the advanced martial artists? The military can't handle these people!"

Hundreds of martial artists took to the sky from various parts of Fairy Star. These were the local elites, normally stationed on Fairy Star, and would usually step forward when there were threats.

One Level Nine Domain King rushed to the forefront, but as soon as he saw these people, he gasped in shock.

He had once participated in the challenge of the Heavenly Gate, but failed to break through. Nevertheless, he had witnessed Zhuiyue, the protector of the Heavenly Gate, suppressing Ke Xianglong.

The casual display of power from Zhuiyue back then was deeply etched into his bones.

The people before him now had the same characteristics as Zhuiyue, they were definitely from the Original World and they are warriors above the Longevity level!

In this New World where the Domain King is a top-notch expert, Longevity Warriors are considered divine. Let alone there are more than a dozen of them here.

If these people were to start a rampage, it's very likely that Fairy Star could turn to ruins.

"Inform his majesty the Emperor quickly!"

This Domain King immediately had someone notify the Emperor, then personally approached them, respectfully bowing, "Greetings, seniors. You are from the Original World, right?"

"Finally, someone with some discernment. Kid, now tell us, where are we?"

The Domain King suppressed his shock: "Honorable seniors, we are in the Andromeda Galaxy. Where do you wish to go? Perhaps I can provide some guidance."

"We are just here to sightsee, but now I want to meet your emperor. You can lead the way, right?"

This Domain King was secretly distressed but dared not utter a word of refusal.

Vislan waved at his mercenaries behind him: "Go out and play, enjoy yourselves. Remember to pay attention to your Dimensional Universe. When I need you, you must return immediately."

The mercenaries agreed, then scattered away like birds.

Seeing those people leave, the Domain King felt a little relieved. He then led Vislan towards the Imperial Palace of Fairy Star.

Soon, Vislan was ushered in to see the Emperor.

"Kid, I'll give you a chance. Arrange for your people to take me to the Milky Way, Lin Zhen's hometown. If this is done well, I might take you to the Original World when I leave and give you a chance at Longevity."

The Emperor of Fairy Star had also attempted to traverse the Heavenly Gate but failed. He thought he would just idly spend his life in the New World until death, but unexpectedly, luck has turned and he was given such an opportunity.

His face was filled with ecstasy: "Many thanks, senior. To reach the domain of the Sun, it's best to travel incognito as a trade delegation. You can join the caravan and it will be easier to bypass the monitoring system of the Sun domain and gradually approach Lin Zhen's hometown, Planet Earth."

"Very well, arrange this matter as soon as possible."

Very quickly, the Emperor of Fairy Star arranged a trade delegation identity for Vislan to depart from Fairy Star to Lin Zhen's home planet, Earth.

This matter caused a stir in the Dimensional Universe, but as Vislan anticipated, it didn't draw much attention.

Over the years, there have been people from the Original World arriving at the New World.

Some who could not make a living in the Original World would come to the New World after reaching the Longevity Realm, choosing to be like a monarch in the New World.

Even though everything in the New World was inferior to the Original World, at the very least, it was safe and free from threats.

There were just some reports in the Dimensional Universe, saying that a group of Original World visitors has arrived at Fairy Star and had minor disagreements with the military. It was quickly revealed to be just a misunderstanding.

However, there were some crazy individuals who wanted to go to the Original World. They actively contacted these visitors in hopes of being taken with them when they leave.

As for those who had come from the Original World, they were here to eat, drink, and be merry, without fear or worry. They just looked like a group of tourists, nothing more.

Chapter 817: Chapter 820: Lin Zhen's Home_1

Nowadays, the Sun Lord's territory is essentially a state within the Tianhe Empire.

Ever since Lin Zhen, the Sun Lord, ascended to the Original World as the number one in the New World Galaxy Stage, the Sun Lord's territory has become the hottest tourist destination in the New World.

People want to see what kind of extraordinary place this is, a place that nurtured the foremost expert of the Galaxy Stage.

The Original World and the New World are not completely isolated from each other in terms of information.

Occasionally, when people from the Original World come, they will bring news from the Original World. Some of the influential figures from the New World have not entirely disappeared from people's sight.

It is said that Lin Zhen has made quite a name for himself in the Original World, causing shock each time his news arrives. In the New World, it always make the headlines, becoming the focus of public attention.

Tourist teams from all over the New World continue to come in droves, and the commercial atmosphere in the Sun Lord's territory is also very strong.

Earth, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth – these six planets are now habitable, and together with the satellites like the Moon, Titan, Ganymede, have formed the unique ecological zone of the Sun Lord's territory.

According to statistics, the six major planets have a resident population of about 40 billion. However, the floating population of the entire Sun Lord's territory is as high as 300 billion!

Recently, plans have been put in place to develop Uranus and Neptune to alleviate the growing population pressure.

Although the other planets are very crowded, Earth, as Lin Zhen's hometown, does not experience such a heavy population pressure.

There are strict rules on Earth. There is a quota for the number of tourists accepted daily. No tourists exceeding this quota will be accepted, to avoid disrupting the ecological environment of Earth.

Ice City Base City in the East.

Sky City.

In a garden, two extremely beautiful women were conversing.

"Sister An Ning, do you also feel that you have hit a bottleneck?" Su Mingyue, dressed in a moon-white dress and looking like an elf, gently held An Ning's hand. The two women sat on a swing, rocking it gently.

Being Lin Zhen's wives, the two women felt a connection deeper than familial ties over the course of a thousand years.

"I have felt it. For several years. My Star Power has long overflowed, but there is always an invisible barrier preventing me from breaking through. No matter how hard I try, I can't advance any further."

"Same here. This is probably the so-called limitation of the New World. No matter who it is, in the New World, the most one can cultivate to is the peak of the World King realm. To enter Longevity, it's simply impossible."

"Yes, not only us, but also Sister An Qier, Ling'er, and others. They are all stuck at the peak of the World King realm, unable to progress."

An Ning suddenly laughed: "Even mum and dad has reached the World King stage. Every day they complain about when Lin Zhen will come back to fetch them."

As she spoke, she asked Su Mingyue: "Yue'er, you and Lin Zhen can sense each other, right? Have you ever sensed his situation? Has he ever been in danger?"

Su Mingyue shook her head slightly: "I have never felt that he was in real danger. Sometimes I feel conflicted. I want to sense his existence, but I'm afraid that he's in danger. I don't want to sense his existence."

An Ning nodded in agreement: "Exactly, I'd rather wait patiently for his return, even if it takes a thousand years or three thousand years. As long as there are no accidents."

The two beautiful women fell silent for a while, lost in thoughts of their husband.

"Both madams, young master and young lady have returned."

The elf girl Ling'er came over and spoke.

"Ah! Weren't they out on an expedition? They are back?"

"Yes, it is said that young master and young lady have also encountered a bottleneck. Cultivation has become meaningless. So, they want to come back and spend time with their family."

An Ning and Su Mingyue were both very happy. They hadn't seen their children for quite some time.

There were sounds of laughter and joy outside the door. The two brothers Lin Ping and Lin An entered, one on the left and one on the right, bringing their sister Lin Mei'er with them.

"Mum, Mum!"

The children ran over and happily embraced their mothers.

"Good, you all look energetic and well. You have all reached the peak of the World King realm. If you could go to the Original World, your day of breakthrough wouldn't be far off."

Lin Mei'er, holding Su Mingyue's arm, said: "Mum, why hasn't dad come to fetch me? I'm really getting tired of being in the New World. It would be so nice to go to the Original World!"

Su Mingyue smiled and said: "Didn't your dad mention it when he left? When he can assure our safety in the Original World, he will take us there. Otherwise, what if we go there and hold him back?"

"But dad is really powerful already!"

As Lin Mei'er spoke, she took out a newspaper she had been treasuring, "Look at this! This newspaper was brought from the Original World. I found this news on it."

"Ahem!" Lin Mei'er straightened herself and started reading aloud.

"Lin Zhen, the top of the Divine Punishment Star, has created another miracle. He broke through seven layers of the Heavenly Tower, defeated the protectors of the Divine Transformation Realm, and became the first champion of the Four Great Sacred Lands!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mei'er said, "I don't even know what the Divine Transformation Realm is like, but it must be much stronger than a World King. If my father can defeat such a strong opponent, wouldn't he be able to ensure our safety?"

"There's always someone better. If your father hasn't returned, he must have his reasons. Little sister, you should wait a bit longer." Lin Ping, the eldest brother, came over to console his sister.

Lin Ping and Lin An haven't spent much time at home these years. They have been traveling around the New World and encountered many dangers, but they always ended up overcoming them. They are among the strongest of the World Kings.

An Ning looked at her two sons, "Have you both fully awakened your bloodline?"

"Yes, Mom. Both my brother and I have awakened our bloodlines in the Star River Giant Beast Alliance. We are both dual-attribute mutated Kylins with fire and ice. However, I'm primarily fire, while my brother is primarily ice."

"You both inherited your father's talent, able to awaken the power of your bloodline. You have the power to fight ordinary immortals."

Su Mingyue turned to her daughter, "Haven't you awakened your bloodline power? Why haven't I ever heard you mention it?"

"No, I don't want to transform into a Kylin. It looks so ugly. I'd rather stay as I am now." Lin Mei'er coquettishly clung to Su Mingyue's hand, stubbornly refusing to turn into a Kylin.

The family had no choice but to accept the youngest girl's decision, even though she was not particularly young.

"Hahaha! If my granddaughter doesn't want to transform, then she doesn't have to. Our family has plenty of strong people. We won't miss one."

Lin Liye and Li Qin came over. Hearing that their grandchildren had returned, they too had rushed back home. The family was reunited.

Both Lin Liye and Li Qin had entered the World King stage, ranking as a Fifth-Level World King and a Third-Level World King respectively.

However, their strength was significantly lower. Each of their advancements had been a struggle, and they had not experienced much real combat. Their strength was at the bottom of all World Kings.

Yet, they didn't care. The two elders were satisfied with seeing their family live happily; these extra years of their life were already a bonus. They didn't want to fight with anyone. Each additional year they lived was another year spent with their family.

"I won two thousand in a card game today. I'll treat the whole family to a feast!" boomed Lin Liye jovially. The family couldn't help but laugh at his enthusiasm.

As members of the family of the Sun Lord, their financial situation couldn't be better. Winning two thousand was a drop in the ocean, but everyone was happy to humor the old man's joy.

Just as everyone was preparing to go out for a massive meal, an electronic screen in the garden suddenly lit up.

On the other end of the screen was the chief of the guards, a man incredibly loyal to Lin Zhen.

"Master, Mistress, both young ladies, a merchant ship from the Andromeda Galaxy has just entered the Sun Lord's domain, headed for the African continent. It is said to be delivering an artificial weather control system. However, this order has come three months earlier than scheduled. According to our investigations, Africa is not in urgent need of this system. Furthermore, the star power of one of the passengers appears to be somewhat hazy."

An Ning frowned, "Are you sure?"

"Yes. According to the young ladies' instructions, our interstellar radar scanning system is the latest in the New World. It doesn't focus on the apparent realm of a martial artist, but scans their total star power instead. However, this person's scanned results… he exceeds our radar's limit."

"Exceeds the limit?" An Ning and Su Mingyue immediately became alert.

Su Mingyue was a quick thinker. After a brief ponder, she said, "If I remember correctly, there was a group from the Original World in the Andromeda Galaxy a few days ago."

"Yes! I heard about that too. The ship is from Andromeda… they arrived early… there's a person whose star power exceeds the limit… their target is Earth… Yue'er, I have a bad feeling about this."

The faces of the entire family became serious. As Lin Zhen's family, they knew that there were people from the Original World who wanted to target Lin Zhen. However, since Lin Zhen was hard to deal with, they might target his family instead.

They couldn't be a burden to Lin Zhen. Other matters could be put aside, but preparing for emergency evacuation was something they had practiced many times.

As the one who valued safety the most, Lin Liye immediately made a decision, "Let's not go out for dinner just yet. Everyone, get on the Permanent Crystal Battlecruiser to watch and wait. If anything happens, we enter the parallel universe immediately. We cannot let the enemy catch us."

Lin Liye's decisiveness played a significant role and helped Lin Zhen's family avoid a disastrous fate.

Just as they boarded the battleship, a shrill air raid siren rang out!

The alarm only sounded for a moment before ceasing as the enemy instantly teleported into Sky City and landed in the backyard of the Lin family's house!

The hidden defenses in the backyard immediately activated, launching a bombardment of fierce artillery fire.

The intruder was Vislan. With his fully blossomed Three Flowers, he easily blocked all the artillery fire.

"Hahaha! So this is Lin Zhen's home. These rudimentary defenses are laughable. Everyone, cease fire!"

With a punch containing enormous star power, Vislan smashes the ground, shattering all the defense systems!

The destruction of the defenses triggered a high-density cloud-bursting bomb buried underground. The massive mushroom cloud engulfed Vislan, triggering the Lin family's final defense, especially designed to counter irresistible enemies.

Even Vislan, in the Three Flowers Realm, was caught off guard by the bomb. He was covered in soot, and his body was injured!

Using the explosion as a diversion, the Permanent Crystal Battleship ascended and quickly departed.

In the midst of the smoke and dust, Vislan spat out a mouthful of blood, his face showing a vicious grimace. "Trying to run? It won't be that easy!"

"Everyone hold tight, the battleship is accelerating, escaping from the atmosphere!"

"The pursuer has caught up, my god, his speed is incredibly fast! We need to quickly enter the parallel universe!"

"Prepare the moon orbit cannon, no no… use the laser weapons to intercept."

"Launch the war fortress missiles, try to buy some time."

The Permanent Crystal Battleship was escaping quickly, but the pursuer behind was not left behind.

Through the radar on the battleship, An Ning and her team could even see the face of the chasing warrior.

This man had three flowers blooming on top of his head, which could block most of the attacks for him. Modern war weapons seemed so powerless in front of him.

"This is probably the Three Flowers Warrior mentioned in the Original World. Three Flowers is a realm above the Longevity Stage. We must not act rashly, especially you two, Lin Ping and Lin An, don't overestimate your abilities, understand?" An Ning turned back and said to the Lin brothers.

Lin Ping and Lin An were clenching their fists, staring at the pursuer on the screen.

The man had a smirk on his face like a cat playing with a mouse, as if the Lin family could not escape from his palm, and he was just playing with them now.

The Lin brothers were outstanding among their peers. They had indeed encountered a master before. During their journey in the New World, they once encountered a Longevity Stage warrior from the Original World.

This Longevity Stage warrior thought he could rule the roost once he came to the New World, and acted indiscriminately, bullying the weak. When the Lin brothers encountered him, they fought.

Together, they had a grueling battle that lasted five hours, leading to the killing of the Peak Longevity Stage warrior!

After that experience, the Lin brothers' morale was high and they were very confident in their own strength.

But An Ning knew that Longevity and Three Flowers were definitely different concepts. Not to mention, there were three flowers blooming on top of the pursuer's head, indicating the Three Flowers Peak Stage.

Fighting against a Three Flowers Peak power was practically courting death.

Not everyone is Lin Zhen.

"My God! How can this person be as fast as light speed? We can't shake him."

"He's attacking the battleship, we can't accelerate to enter the parallel universe!"

The pursuer behind was throwing beams of light in his hand at the Permanent Crystal Battleship, causing the battleship to shake non-stop.

Every time the battleship attempted to accelerate to light-speed, it would receive a blow, causing its speed to slow down again.

In this way, the battleship would never be able to enter the parallel universe, and it was impossible to shake the opponent off while outside of the parallel universe.

The battleship flew within the sun's territory, and the pursuer behind them wouldn't stop. The shield of the Permanent Crystal Battleship was being bombed constantly, and the light was getting dimmer.

To fight against enemies from the Original World, this battleship underwent numerous modifications, thus it contained immense energy, which was enough to withstand the constant attacks from the Three Flowers power.

"We have to chart an escape route, we can't go on like this."

"Head to Mars, take the wormhole, go to Sagittarius after passing through the wormhole, to the front of the Heavenly Gate, which is the closest place to the Original World in the entire New World, I want to try, whether the mental connection with Lin Zhen can take effect over there."

This was the only solution Su Mingyue could think of. She and Lin Zhen had a twin star crystal in their bodies and in the past in the New World they were often able to sense each other, but after Lin Zhen went to the Original World, this connection disappeared.

Sometimes, Su Mingyue would think that if she could be closer to Lin Zhen, perhaps they could sense each other again.

The closest place to the Original World in the New World was the Heavenly Gate in Sagittarius.

Now is not the time when the Heavenly Gate is open, but this was the only solution she could think of.

Upon hearing Su Mingyue's words, the Lin family members all nodded. This was the only method, the only possible way to get in touch with Lin Zhen.

Otherwise, the entire family might not survive this crisis.

However, there was a key problem at hand, how to shake off the pursuer and go through the wormhole to Sagittarius.

If they couldn't shake off their pursuer and led him to Mars, it could lead to disastrous consequences, something they absolutely couldn't allow.

No matter how they maneuvered the battleship, they couldn't shake off their pursuer.

Despair spread among the Lin family members on the battleship.

Vislan was flying in the void behind, feeling refreshed and thrilled.

In the New World, whether it was flying or teleporting, it was much faster than the Original World. Here, he could reach the sub-light speed limit, something unimaginable in the Original World.

And his teleportation, could reach tens of thousands of kilometers instantly, something he couldn't do in the Original World either.

The battleship of Lin family was just in front of him flying, in his view, it was just a struggling before death.

Once he broke the shield of the battleship, the Lin family members would have no choice but to surrender.

"Lin Zhen! Don't blame me, the one who wants to deal with you is Saint Master Qian Tong, I'm just a mercenary who does things for money, and your family… it's your fault for not protecting them well!"

Vislan raised a thought, and with a teleportation, he appeared right on top of the Permanent Crystal Battleship.

Standing on the energy shield with a long sword in his hand, he never stopped attacking the shield.

With him harassing, the Permanent Crystal Battleship would not be able to accelerate into the parallel universe and breaking it was only a matter of time.

"Mom, don't worry about us. How did Dad fight back then? How did he brave death and defeat one after another strong enemy far stronger than him? As his sons, we can't perform too poorly."

"Yes, if we back down at this time, how can we face Dad in the Original World in the future? Could we, as the two men of the family, have protected our women properly? We would be too ashamed to meet Dad."

Lin Ping and Lin An said their farewells to the family.

Lin Liye, Li Qin, An Ning, Su Mingyue, Lin Mei'er, Ling'er, and sisters An Qier – the big family didn't try to console them.

An Ning held Su Mingyue, unable to stop crying. Someone had to stand up and face the enemy outside, but it absolutely could not be a woman; that could mean feeding lambs to a tiger, bringing humiliation to Lin Zhen – something no one could accept.

As Lin Liye was not strong enough, Lin Ping and Lin An could not bear it any more and took the initiative to fight.

Seeing their two sons about to leave, possibly never to return, An Ning as their mother was devastated.

The battleship door opened, and Lin Ping and Lin An departed for battle.

Even through the battleship, they could hear the fierce sounds of battle outside.

The boys' roars, Vislan's loud laughs, the fight quickly turned into a life and death struggle.

The shield that was about to consume all its energy suddenly stopped depleting. Lin Ping and the others had succeeded, the battleship finally accelerated to light speed and entered the parallel universe.

On the eve of the battleship's acceleration, An Ning seemed to witness the defeat of her two sons and passed out shortly after.

Lin Liye controlled the battleship, forcefully accelerating forward. As a grandfather, how could he not ache for his two grandsons? If he was the only one on the battleship, he would have self-destructed just to land a blow on the enemy. But he couldn't. There was his whole family onboard.

The battleship passed through the parallel universe, arrived at Mars, and plunged down from a wormhole on Mount Olympus.

After coming out of the wormhole, they sped up again into the parallel universe, heading straight for the direction of Sagittarius.

"Mom! We must avenge my brothers!" Lin Mei'er's eyes were red, heartbroken.

Su Mingyue took Mei'er's hand: "Don't worry, we will for sure avenge them. But let's not lose hope. The purpose of our enemies' visit here might not necessarily be to kill us because killing us brings them no advantages; they are most likely trying to capture us and use our safety as a threat to your dad."

Quickly regaining consciousness, An Ning couldn't help but nod when she heard Su Mingyue's words: "Exactly, killing us would only infuriate Lin Zhen. Only by capturing us alive could they disturb Lin Zhen's mind. That being said, Ping and An might not be dead yet."

"They certainly are not dead, they certainly aren't…"

With everyone praying, the battleship, after a journey of a full day and night, finally arrived at the wine-red nebula area of Sagittarius.

Back when the Heavenly Gate opened, there were countless people here, but now it's deserted without a person in sight.

The Permanent Crystal Battleship stopped. The Lin family first scanned the surroundings with a radar and found no one nearby.

Su Mingyue said to Lin Liye and others: "Mom, Dad, you all wait in the spaceship, find an optimal point for acceleration and leave. If anything changes, leave immediately."

"No! We won't run anymore. If there's still no hope this time, we'll fight the enemy. Yue'er, you go quickly. No one knows our route of action, no one will catch up."

"Mom, you must be careful!"

Su Mingyue nodded slightly, turned around, jumped off the spaceship, then headed straight for the Heavenly Gate.

She had seen this place often in the Dimensional Universe, but it was Su Mingyue's first time here.

Standing in front of the Heavenly Gate and looking up, the vast dark energy in the sky formed large pieces of wine-red nebula, floating and tugging.

Two huge life pillars headed straight for the universe, the Heavenly Gate was a full million kilometers away.

Star Power surged in Su Mingyue, and she rose into the air!

Even though the Heavenly Gate was closed, the pressure was still there. Su Mingyue, against the pressure, managed to rush past the limit of a million kilometers!

This proved that if Su Mingyue were to break through the Heavenly Gate now, it would definitely be a breeze.

But upon reaching the end, the Original World did not appear; the Heavenly Gate remained closed.

Suspended in the air, her long hair swirling, Su Mingyue's Spiritual Power swept over it, but felt nothing.

Thinking she might not be able to reach Lin Zhen, Su Mingyue felt sad and two lines of tears slid down her cheeks.

"Darling~! Where are you~~~~!!!"

Always dignified and graceful Saintess let out a heartrending cry!

The sound echoed at the end of the nebula, but it couldn't reach the Original World.

Chapter 820: Chapter 823: Return_1

Vislan watched Lin Zhen's family leave the warship, his eyes swiveling back and forth.

"One, two, three… Why are we missing a person? Where is Su Mingyue?"

Lin Liye did not respond to his question, but instead stepped forward, "Where are my two grandsons?"

"Haha! Utterly ridiculous. You can't even save yourself, yet you're still concerned about your grandsons. If you really want to know, I suppose I can tell you. But, your entire family will have to willingly surrender, then I'll allow you to reunite with those two brats."

"In your dreams!" Lin Liye retorted angrily.

"Don't be ungrateful. Power is what matters now. Our strength completely overwhelms yours, leaving you no room for resistance. If you refuse the toast, you should expect the consequences. Don't say I didn't warn you."

A chill showed on Vislan's face and he commanded his mercenaries behind him, "Brothers, take action, but be careful. These delicate beauties are only World Kings; don't accidentally kill them. That would ruin the fun."

"Boss, we've already angered Lin Zhen to death by taking on this job. Since it has come to this, it doesn't matter how we act now. Today, I want to have a taste of the beauties from his family!"

A Longevity Stage mercenary charged forward, targeting An Ning.

At this moment, An Ning was worried about her two children. When she saw an enemy charging towards her, she was filled with rage.

When the mercenary charged towards her, surprisingly she did not dodge or avoid him, instead, she unsheathed her sword to confront him!

By An Ning's side, sisters An Qier also attacked simultaneously!

These women from Lin Zhen's family were formidable as well. The three World Kings joined forces and swiftly clashed with this Longevity Stage mercenary. Their figures suddenly split and recombined, these three women simultaneously retreated, their faces pale.

The Longevity Stage mercenary had a sword sticking in his chest, pierced by An Ning's sword!

Sisters An Qier supported An Ning. This brief engagement, although extremely dangerous, showed that An Ning had fought desperately. The mercenary was ill-prepared and had his defenses broken by the An Qier sisters and thus lost his life.

The Longevity Stage Martial Artist crashed to the ground, his eyes filled with regret.

Vislan was stunned for a moment; then, a look of rage appeared on his face, "You refuse a toast only to get the penalty. Everyone, attack!"

His eleven men charged together.

Lin family members gathered together, knowing they were not their opponents. But even if it meant death, they would not let the enemy capture them.

Above the Heavenly Gate, Su Mingyue opened her eyes.

She looked with disbelief at the wormhole opening before her.

From the wormhole, her long-lost husband, whose coat was covered with a rosy glow walked out. That was the light from the Original World.

Coming to the Heavenly Gate, she had been driven by desperation. Su Mingyue couldn't think of any other way.

But she never expected that her husband would truly return. He had heard her call!

"Lin Zhen…"

Her lips moved a little, tears blurred her vision.

Lin Zhen stepped out of the wormhole in one stride, pulling Su Mingyue into his arms, "Yue'er, what happened?"

"There are enemies, below…"

With a sweep of Lin Zhen's spiritual power, the scene under the Heavenly Gate was clearly visible.

He put Su Mingyue into his internal world, then teleported directly to the fighting scene below.

Vislan, wielding a long sword, knocked the weapon out of Ling'er's hand with a single stroke.

To be fair, The Lin family members were strong amongst World Kings, but their strength was not enough to defy the heavens. They could defeat one at the Longevity Stage when working together, but they were absolutely no match for one at the Three Flowers Realm.

Vislan's strength was virtually invincible in the New World.

Just as he was about to capture Ling'er, who was barely holding up, a chilling sense of danger suddenly came from above.

"Not good!"

Vislan, who had spent years living on the knife's edge, immediately sensed danger.

His ability to detect danger was very strong, and a torrential murderous intent came flooding from above. How could he not feel it?

Without any hesitation, Vislan immediately released another wormhole egg.

Given this overwhelming murderous intent and power, apart from Lin Zhen, he could not think of anyone else. It was clear that Lin Zhen had received the news and come back. This mission was over.

Vislan activated the wormhole egg and then with a thought, two figures flew out of his internal world: these were the captured Lin Ping and Lin An.

Vislan had an agreement with Qian Tong when he took on the job. If he captured anyone from the Lin family, he must take the opportunity to send them back. He had set the coordinates long ago, specifically to Qian Tong's alchemy room.

Once Lin Ping and Lin An safely passed through the wormhole, they would be in Qian Tong's hands. Then, with his two sons in Qian Tong's hands, Lin Zhen definitely wouldn't be able to act recklessly.

After throwing Lin Ping and Lin An in, Vislan quickly followed suit and entered the wormhole, without even having time to call to his subordinates.

Lin Zhen teleported, taking him directly above the battlefield.

At the site of the battlefield, the Lin family was gathering together to resist. An Ning, Ling'er, the sisters An Qier, and his own daughter Lin Mei'er were the main force of resistance. However, they were being toyed with like a cat playing with a mouse by the Longevity Warriors, and there simply was no way they could resist for long.

Having seen Vislan's actions, the rage in Lin Zhen's heart had already surged to the limit.

His eyes focussed on Vislan's wormhole and he released his Heart Sword.

Buzz~!

This was an incredibly powerful move even in the Original World; in the New World it was utterly invincible.

A network of swords cut through the space, causing countless tiny space fissures and fiercely slashing at the wormhole!

The space passage opened by the Wormhole Egg was unable to withstand Lin Zhen's chilling strike and was severed right at the middle!

Vislan, who was about to return to the Original World, was stopped by this attack. Half of the passage lost its power, and Vislan's body fell out of it.

"Nine Spirits, you take care of these minions!"

Lin Zhen let the Nine-headed Lion out. When Nine Spirits appeared, its massive body roared, its godly transformation into a Super Star River Beast terrified the mercenaries who were only at the Longevity Realm.

Ten mercenaries attempted to flee in different directions. Nine Spirits flickered in the air, nine enormous lion heads flew out, one for each person; it bit nine of them, killing them in mid-air, swallowing them one by one.

The remaining one was grabbed by it and was flung to the ground, crushed their head with a single stomp.

The once arrogant mercenaries were wiped out in an instant!

Vislan was only spitting out blood. He had been injured by Lin Zhen's chilling Sword Qi and it seemed like he wouldn't survive.

Just as Lin Zhen was about to finish him off, An Ning suddenly cried out in a loud voice behind him: "Lin Zhen, Lin Ping and Lin An have been taken by him!"

Lin Zhen He hesitated for a moment, halted his killing actions, grabbed Vislan and forced him to swallow an elixir, and then his fiery gaze directly stabbed into his soul.

Soul Lock~!

Vislan, who was just about to enter the Ghost Gate, was yanked back to life by Lin Zhen.

"Speak, spill everything you know!"

Vislan was easily soul-locked by Lin Zhen and began to spill all he knew like beans from a bamboo tube.

"The person who wanted to threaten you using your family is Qian Tong. He provided us two Wormhole Eggs to come to the New World and gave our Mercenary Corps fifty billion. That's why we'd accepted this deal."

"Lin Ping and Lin An haven't died, because Qian Tong said he wants them alive. I had an agreement with him to deliver them to his side."

Lin Zhen's face changed, "Are you saying that my two sons are now in Qian Tong's hands?"

If that's the case, it was indeed dangerous. Qian Tong was a cruel man, and as a Saint-Level Alchemist, he had many ways to control people. If Lin Ping and Lin An end up in his hands, they might suffer more than death.

Even if Lin Zhen rushes back right now, he might provoke Qian Tong to take immediate action.

However, Vislan shook his head, "No. Your strike just now damaged the structure of the wormhole, causing a significant deviation in the wormhole's coordinates. Lin Ping and Lin An were almost through at the time, but the position must have definitely changed. They must have ended up in some other part of the Original World."

"Give me the coordinates!"

"There are no specific coordinates anymore. The wormhole was destroyed by your Sword Qi at the last moment, hence, the exact location can't be determined. We can only estimate a range, but the error might be several million or even tens of millions of light years."

"Where is this estimated range?"

"It could… be somewhere near the Endless Battlefield. But it's impossible to pursue them there. The Endless Battlefield is unimaginably large and full of dangers. A difference of tens of thousands of kilometers can make the difference between heaven and hell, let alone such a large discrepancy. It's going to be hard to find these two."

"Then you can go die!" Lin Zhen shot a Mental Shock, instantly smashing Vislan's head into bits!

Vislan's headless body fell down. Lin Zhen once again released Su Mingyue, and the Lin family was finally reunited.

An Ning rushed into Lin Zhen's embrace, "My husband, save our children."

"Relax, everyone relax, as long as Ping'er and An'er are alive, it's doable. I'm very familiar with the Original World, I will certainly be able to find them. You have to believe in their survival abilities. They are now at the World King Peak realm. Once they're in the Original World, they might even break through to Longevity quickly. The Longevity warriors are considered among the strong in the Original World, so they won't have any issues surviving," Lin Zhen said.

Lin Zhen's reassuring words did their job. Seeing for themselves that both children were still alive relieved the Lin family considerably.

Moreover, the brothers Lin Ping and Lin An have always loved to adventure, so even if they ended up in the Original World, they should be fine.

After Su Mingyue came out, she also grew anxious, "My husband, are they really going to be okay? Won't there be any danger?"

Lin Zhen thought for a moment and said, "There shouldn't be any major problems. They might have ended up in a relatively complex area, but I'll go searching for them. You don't need to worry about anything."

The Lin family, though still a bit apprehensive, felt much better knowing that their children were alive. Moreover, with Lin Zhen back, everything naturally had him to rely on.

However, Lin Zhen's heart was actually quite uneasy. The Endless Battlefield was the war zone between the Original World's surface and the races of the Endless Star Sea. Within that stretch of many tens of millions of light years, there were countless hazards.

Besides, no warrior below the Longevity Stage ever enters that place. Even those in the Three Flowers Realm are just flunkies there.

It was way too dangerous for Lin Ping and Lin An to go there.

But, naturally, Lin Zhen didn't share these concerns with his family. For now, he should first take his family back to the Original World and settle them safely. He himself would go find his two sons.

"Dad and Mom, just leave matters at home for now. You should return to the Original World with me right away." said Lin Zhen.

Lin Liye gave a small nod, "Okay. It does not matter whether we are present or not. Everything about the Solar City is on track. We are just an ornament here."

An Ning asked Lin Zhen, "Husband, was the person called Qian Tong, who was just mentioned, the mastermind behind this?"

"That's right, but you guys don't have to worry about anything. After returning to the Original World, just focus on cultivation. Leave the rest to me." replied Lin Zhen.

The Lin's gradually relaxed. As long as Lin Zhen is there, they need not worry about anything.

Lin Zhen lifted his hand, putting away the Permanent Crystal Battleship. Then, he took out a wormhole egg. After determining the coordinates pointing to the Heavenly Ridge, the dwelling place of Fire Kirin Clan, he said, "Alright, get ready everyone. Let's go to the Original World."

The wormhole egg opened and a space tunnel appeared once again.

Everyone got up one after another and walked into the wormhole, following behind Lin Zhen as they traversed through the dark passageway.

When the sight in front became bright again, they had already arrived in a new world.

The most significant difference between the Original World and New World is the aura. The spiritual energy of the Original World is incomparable to that of the New World. Upon their arrival, everyone felt like the barriers inhibiting their progress have started to loosen.

A towering palace that looked like it was carved out of red gemstone stood behind them, looking incredibly awe-inspiring.

"Son, what place is this?" Li Qin asked.

"Mom, this place is the lair of the Fire Kirin Clan in the Original World. I am the head of the clan here. You guys will be absolutely safe staying here."

The emergence of the wormhole attracted the attention of the Fire Kirin Clan. They all came out to have a look. Upon seeing Lin Zhen's return, they all paid their respects.

It has been almost ten years, and the time to recruit new disciples for the Holy Land is about to come again. The people of Fire Kirin Clan were all waiting for Lin Zhen's recommendation.

More and more Fire Kirins came out to pay their respects to their clan leader.

Looking down, Lin Zhen saw many new faces.

The power of the Fire Kirin has become increasingly stronger over the years. Many Fire Kirins who were scattered outside have returned to the clan. There were a lot of people whom Lin Zhen did not recognize now.

At this moment, Li Qin suddenly pointed at a Fire Kirin, "He… he looks like the puppy you used to raise."

Lin Zhen paused for a moment and glanced at the Fire Kirin, his eyes suddenly lighting up.

This new Fire Kirin was Xiao Nuan!

Xiao Nuan was extremely glad to see Lin Zhen, especially when he saw Lin Liye and Li Qin. He immediately hopped over excitedly.

"Xiao Nuan, when did you come here?"

"Master, I came to the Original World seventy years ago. Initially, I reached the other side of Heavenly Ridge. Even though I heard a lot about you, I couldn't find you. Not until a few years ago, when I heard that you became the head of the Fire Kirin Clan. I crossed the Heavenly Ridge and came here. I've been here for less than two months. I didn't expect to see you so soon."

Lin Zhen patted Xiao Nuan's shoulder happily. It has been a hundred years since they last met. Xiao Nuan has now reached the Longevity Realm.

Xiao Nuan was a variation of Fire Kirin possessing his own bloodline, his potential was very good.

"Great! That's great! In that case, you, Lin Chuang, and my family members, you all will be entering the selection for Falling Star Lake Holy Land this year."

As a student of Heaven Class, Lin Zhen had eight quotas to recommend people for the selection of Holy Land. Of course, he would favor his own people.

Xiao Nuan, Lin Chuang, Su Mingyue, An Ning, An Qier sisters, Ling'er, and Lin Mei'er, exactly eight people.

Fortunately, Lin Ping and Lin An were not here, otherwise, the quotas wouldn't have been enough.

Looking at his family members, Lin Zhen thought their power was still a bit weak.

Although Su Mingyue and An Ning are considered top talents among their peers, Lin Zhen felt they were not strong enough.

Lin Zhen secretly decided that he would get a Super Divine Body for each of his family members. Only then they would have a chance to pass the selection process for the Holy Land.

The value of a Super Divine Body is extremely high, 500 billion for one!

But, what Lin Zhen lacks least right now is money. Eight Super Divine Bodies cost 40 trillion. However, he had 140 trillion in his hands.

After introducing his family to the people of the Fire Kirin Clan, Lin Zhen announced that his family would be living in the Fire Palace from now onwards.

Lin Zhen held absolute power in the Kirin Clan currently. No one could oppose this.

The palace doors of the Fire Palace opened, and the Lin family officially moved in.

Subsequently, Lin Zhen called over Guangdian, Red Witch, and the other Four Spirits.

"From now on, you four not only need to guard the Kirin Clan well but also must take good care of my family. As long as you handle these matters well, I will obtain Saint-level Elixirs to help you advance."

The eyes of Guangdian and the other three lit up instantly. They were extremely tempted by the prospect of advancing to the Divine Transformation.

However, they did not possess Nine Spirits' fortune, making it quite difficult for them to advance.

The Saint-level advancement pill was a shortcut for those at the Peak of Three Flowers to advance to Divine Transformation. But Saint-level Elixirs were extremely difficult to obtain. Even Qian Tong had a tough time refining them. However, to their surprise, Lin Zhen said he could find some.

However, the four of them would not doubt anything Lin Zhen said. They immediately slapped their chests and promised there would be no mistake.

At this point, Lin Zhen was very confident in the safety of his family.

With the protection of the Four Spirits and the fifty to sixty thousand Fire Kirins here, absolutely no one would dare to court death.

The atmosphere in the Fire Palace is warm and the environment is beautiful. The Lin family had no discomfort living here.

After settling everyone in, Lin Zhen hesitated for a moment and did not immediately tell them about Ning Qingxuan.

If it were normal times, it would have been fine. Now that Lin Ping and Lin An are not around, everyone's mood is not too good. He decided to wait a while before bringing it up.

Luckily, everyone's emotions are quite stable right now. Perhaps it has something to do with Lin Ping and Lin An often going out to experience the world. After all, everyone is not a commoner, they're Martial Artists, and their ability to adapt to dangerous environments is very strong.

Therefore, a Martial Artist's family is doomed not to waver over minor things like ordinary people.

Moreover, after arriving in the Original World, they found that all of them were on the verge of breaking through.

When Lin Zhen first left the New World, their realms were all above his. Many years have passed and if it was not for the New World suppressing them, everyone might've broken through long ago.

So when they arrived here, the first thing Lin Zhen did was to prepare elixir and Star Crystals for them to help them with their breakthroughs.

The first person to break through was Su Mingyue.

With Lin Zhen protecting the law, breaking through, of course, wasn't a problem. Su Mingyue had accumulated over a long period of time, and she broke through from the peak of World King to the peak of the second level of Longevity Realm, almost entering the third level.

As soon as Su Mingyue broke through, An Ning followed suit, with similar results.

Then Ling'er and An Qier sisters and Lin Mei'er all started to break through one after another, which kept Lin Zhen busy for a while.

Only the progress of Lin Liye and his wife was relatively slow, but they were not in a hurry, everything would have its own time.

After staying in the Fire Palace for three full days, when everyone's realms were stable, Lin Zhen began to prepare to leave.

"Father, mother, Ning'er, Yue'er, you must cultivate here diligently. Don't go anywhere. With the people of the Fire Kirin protecting you, you won't be in any danger. The Original World is different from the New World. The competition here is more intense and vicious. It's most important for you to improve your strength."

"Ping'er and An'er are just stranded outside, I will go find them. As a man, experiencing some dangerous environments can increase their experience. So you don't need to worry about this."

"Now, I am going back to get some things to strengthen you all. You just wait here for a while."

After bidding farewell to his family, Lin Zhen left the Fire Kirin Clan and headed for Qin City.

He needed to get everyone a Super Divine Body and suit them up properly.

Purchasing the Super Divine Body is not easy. Firstly, the price is extremely high. Secondly, it requires prior booking.

But, before Lin Zhen came to Qin City, he had already asked Emperor Zhu Ziheng of the Qin Kingdom to reserve it for him.

When Zhu Ziheng heard that Lin Zhen wanted to reserve eight Super Divine Bodies, he was startled. He said to Lin Zhen in the Dimensional Universe, "Brother, I can help with the reservation, but our royal family can't afford to pay for it!"

"Haha, don't worry, you just need to reserve it as fast as possible. I'll handle the money."

When Lin Zhen said he would pay, Zhu Ziheng felt relieved. As the Emperor of Da Qin Empire, he could indeed do this — reserving Divine Bodies promptly and efficiently.

If there is anywhere in the Original World where shopping is most convenient, it definitely includes Qin City. It's quite difficult to buy Super Divine Bodies elsewhere, but in Qin City, it's pretty convenient.

By the time Lin Zhen arrived, the eight Super Divine Bodies had already been prepared.

The configuration of the eight Divine Bodies had been stated by Lin Zhen in advance. According to each person's different traits, different Divine Bodies were prepared.

For instance, since Su Mingyue has an innate light attribute physique, Lin Zhen had arranged for a Holy Light Divine Body for her.

As An Ning has an innate water attribute physique, Lin Zhen arranged for a Water Spirit Divine Body for her.

Say for Ling'er, the elf princess, Lin Zhen arranged for her a Natural Divine Body.

As for Mei'er, who is a mutated Fire Kirin, Lin Zhen arranged for her a Super Flame Divine Body that is most suitable for a mutated Galaxy Beast.

Following the purchase of the Divine Bodies, Lin Zhen spent a hefty amount to buy Lingbao.

The price of Lingbao is also not cheap. Each Lingbao is worth at least tens of billions. If not, the Nan Liang Empire wouldn't only have the Sky-cutting sword Lingbao in the Qingye Sect.

To have any list of achievements in the Holy Land arena, Lingbao is indispensable.

With another twenty trillion cash spent, eight pieces of Lingbao were ready.

Alongside a number of other suitable trivial things, Lin Zhen bought quite a few. He was busy in Qin City for three days and returned to the Fire Kirin Clan full of goods.

It was only after everyone had fused with the Super Divine Bodies that Lin Zhen let out a sigh of relief.

These things were sorted out, but Lin Zhen had more important things to do.

This time, Qian Tong was the one who instigated things behind the scenes. It's time for Lin Zhen to settle things with him.

Chapter 822: 825

Qian Tong had repeatedly schemed against Lin Zhen in secret. Before, Lin Zhen hadn't had the opportunity to deal with him, but he was always confident enough to believe that Qian Tong's schemes would not affect him.

Lin Zhen figured that after the grand competition in ten years, he would find an opportunity to finish off Qian Tong.

Unexpectedly, this man, as a Saint Master, actually plotted against his family and almost caused a major disaster.

Lin Zhen could not tolerate him anymore after this incident.

After bidding his family farewell, Lin Zhen left Heavenly Ridge and returned to the Holy Land of Falling Star Lake.

Jin Nuo's Dimensional Universe had been busy these days.

As a Holy Land Resident who had lived for tens of millions of years, Jin Nuo naturally knew countless experts.

In these days, numerous experts had been pleading with Qian Tong through the Dimensional Universe.

"Mr. Jin Nuo, I am the Ancestor Fierce Fire of the Wan Dao Domain, Ahem… Well, the thing is, although the Saint Master Qian Tong of the Qin Kingdom is not great, his elixirs are truly unparalleled. This man mustn't die! Yes, yes, yes, I'm begging you."

"The fifth son of Falling Star Lake, Jin Nuo, right? I am Dong Xuan from the Duiliu Realm, we met once before. Today I have no choice but to shamelessly tell you that it is normal for martial artists to have disputes. Even Holy Land Warriors are not untouchable. As a Holy Land Resident, you should not interfere in the disputes among martial artists."

"Fifth Brother! I am Li Jing, a former disciple of the Heaven Class. Right! Right! Right! How have you been lately, Fifth Brother? I am now on the Endless Battlefield. When I have time, I will come back to visit you… Haha! This time, I have been asked to talk about the matter of Qian Tong. Without hiding from the Fifth Brother, our team really needs some elixirs, especially a few Saint-level ones. With these elixirs, we can take down a Demon Clan stronghold and change the situation on our battlefield! Qian Tong must not die, I plead with you, Fifth Brother."

"Fifth Brother, I am…"

One after another, the pleas irritated Jin Nuo.

He knew about the incident at Lin Zhen's home. He knew that sooner or later, Lin Zhen and Qian Tong would have to resolve their dispute.

Jin Nuo was very displeased. Qian Tong was being punished in the Holy Land but he could not keep his peace. Knowing that Lin Zhen was someone he was focusing on nurturing, he dared to act recklessly, and even broke the rules to target Lin Zhen's family.

For such a person, regardless of whether he was a Saint-Level Alchemist, Jin Nuo had murderous thoughts about him.

But before he could make a decision, that old fox, Qian Tong, had been preparing for a rainy day, soliciting as many people as possible to plead for him.

Among these people were many old acquaintances of Jin Nuo, some were martial artists who had left Falling Star Lake before, some were Jin Nuo's old friends, and others were strong ones with a huge reputation in dangerous areas like the Endless Battlefield and the Cosmic Forbidden Land.

Even the people Jin Nuo planned to contact in the Endless Star Sea after leaving the Holy Land were there. Jin Nuo had no idea how Qian Tong managed to find so many people.

But Jin Nuo was also a strong-willed person. Very few people could change what he wanted to do. Even with so many people pleading, he had no intention of letting Qian Tong off.

But just now, in his chat group, Zhang Lang of Freedom City said to him: "Jin Nuo, since you've decided to train Lin Zhen as your successor, then you shouldn't interfere too much in his affairs, except for providing him with convenient conditions for cultivation, let him resolve his own grudges. If you take care of everything for him, how will he grow up?"

Fang Fei of Twin Trees Garden also said: "That's right, I know you're under a lot of pressure lately, but these aren't the things you should be handling. Do you have to take responsibility for everyone's affairs? I think this is putting the cart before the horse."

Soul Lock Platform Feng Dao also said: "Exactly, if Lin Zhen wants to deal with Qian Tong, then he should be clear about the cause and consequence of the matter. Killing Qian Tong will undoubtedly offend many people. If he can't handle the aftermath, he is not fit to inherit Falling Star Lake."

Jin Nuo knew that perhaps these people all had their eyes on Saint-Level Elixirs. It was likely that Qian Tong promised a lot of things just to survive.

Falling Star Lake needed Saint-Level Elixirs too, but compared to Lin Zhen, who was the future successor, it was nothing.

However, what these people said made sense. He couldn't possibly help Lin Zhen conquer the world. For such personal disputes, it was best to resolve them oneself.

Just as he was undecided, Lin Zhen returned.

Upon returning to the Holy Land, Lin Zhen sensed something different in the atmosphere there.

People's gazes at him were somewhat strange, laden with profound meanings.

Lin Zhen didn't delve into the reasons. After he returned, he headed directly to the Alchemy Room.

Seeing Lin Zhen heading towards the Alchemy Room, many nearby martial artists rushed over when they heard the news.

Everyone knew about the ugly spat between Lin Zhen and Qian Tong. This time, Qian Tong sent people to kidnap Lin Zhen's family and lost his son. Lin Zhen would definitely not let this matter rest. But Qian Tong was also not easy to deal with. He had been busy recently. Now that Lin Zhen was back, everyone knew there was a good show coming.

The news spread like wildfire, and soon a large group of people were following Lin Zhen, waiting to see how this matter would be resolved.

After Qian Tong sought help from a large circle of people, he received many comforting responses. In the end, it was clear that the situation would have to be resolved between him and Lin Zhen.

There were still many people in his room, all of them experienced students from the Heaven Class.

All of them had benefited from Qian Tong. Every martial artist needed money and elixirs for their cultivation. As a Saint-Level Alchemist, it was obvious how popular Qian Tong was.

A martial artist named Ma Teng waved his hand: "Saint Master, you shouldn't worry about anything. What can Lin Zhen do even if he comes back? After all, his family members are not dead, right? It's a minor issue. Once Lin Zhen is back, I will try to mediate for you. At most, you have to arrange a banquet and apologize to him. We can resolve this minor issue and forget about it over a cup of wine."

"Exactly, even though Lin Zhen has recently gained the favor of our fifth senior brother, he, after all, isn't in charge of the Holy Land yet. Even if he will potentially succeed as the Holy Land Resident, that's likely millions of years from now. He has to maintain some respect for us old fellows."

"Since there has been no serious consequence, let's simply settle it. Being unforgiving and narrow-minded is not good."

The six or so martial artists in the room all began to speak. Each of them had reached the God Transformation Period and could be considered the elite among the Holy Land's veterans.

Qian Tong had prepared on both fronts. On one hand, he sought someone to plead his case to Jin Nuo. On the other hand, he had people come here to back him up – all to put pressure on Lin Zhen.

Qian Tong smiled: "Thanks for your help, everyone. I have already received a message that Lin Zhen will be back soon. I ask for your help in speaking words of kindness for me when the time comes."

These martial artists agreed easily. After all, whenever Qian Tong asked them for help, they always benefitted, so naturally, they would be eager to help.

While they were talking, Qian Tong's door was shattered as if it had been hit by a vehicle.

From within the dust and smoke, Lin Zhen appeared at the doorway.

And behind Lin Zhen, far away, a large crowd of people had gathered – all attracted by the spectacle.

Ma Teng, who had just boasted here, was taken aback by Lin Zhen's direct disruption, which had made him lose face immediately.

Based on his status as a veteran from the Heaven Class, Ma Teng slammed the table: "Lin Zhen! What the hell are you doing? Don't you see that there are many senior brothers here? Do you still know how to behave like a junior brother?"

Lin Zhen looked around and snorted coldly: "Senior brother? The only true senior brother in the Holy Land is Jin Nuo. What are you? Do you even have the right to call yourself my senior brother?"

The people who were originally going to act high and mighty all shut up.

In the Holy Land, only Jin Nuo could be considered a true senior brother. Otherwise, calling each other senior or junior brothers was just a formality — everyone was from the same faction and there was no real hierarchy.

Moreover, even if they were Heaven Class students, Lin Zhen was a Heaven Class student as well. The real determining factor of their order is the progress in the Thirty-Three Sky Tower and not the order of their initiation.

However, the progress of the few people present in the Thirty-Three Sky Tower was ahead of Lin Zhen. Lin Zhen was stuck on the twelfth floor at present, while they had all passed it. Ma Teng had already passed the twelfth floor, and the completion degree of the rest at this level was also above Lin Zhen.

After being rebutted by Lin Zhen, Ma Teng's face turned red. He said with a grim expression, "Lin Zhen, let's not talk about the senior brother issue. Let's talk about the issues in the Holy Land. Everyone knows about your situation. Saint Master was indeed wrong in some ways, but there were no serious consequences after all. Furthermore, the Holy Land still needs his elixirs. I hope you can give priority to the overall situation and do not act impulsively."

Lin Zhen sneered: "Impulsive? Qian Tong sent people to kidnap my family. If I hadn't arrived in time, my family would likely be in a dire situation right now, and you're saying that there were no consequences?"

"But aren't your family members okay?" Another martial artist commented.

"My two sons are missing. They have entered the Endless Battlefield.", replied Lin Zhen.

Ma Teng chuckles: "I thought it was something serious. It's just that your two sons are missing. You don't even know if they're alive or dead. As a young man, Lin Zhen, can't you have as many children as you want? But do you know, we only have one Saint-Level Alchemist – Qian Tong. He is our precious resource. Can you not tell which is more important?"

"Of course, I can."

Lin Zhen looked at Qian Tong, "In my eyes, this man is no different than a rat. Even if he were scattered to ashes, he wouldn't be worth a strand of my son's hair. I must settle my issues with him today!"

Seeing Lin Zhen giving absolutely no consideration to his propositions, Ma Teng was filled with anger. "Lin Zhen, we are all studying the monument in the Heaven Class. You wouldn't want someone to block you every time you study, would you? If that keeps happening, you might fall behind indefinitely, and it might even affect your future."

Lin Zhen remained emotionless: "My future has always been in my own hands, it's not up to someone like you to decide."

"What! I am… Fine! Lin Zhen, I will not interfere in this matter. You should know that there are many people who need Saint-level Elixirs now. If you kill the Saint Master, it is you who will have to shoulder the blame!"

After saying that, Ma Teng and the other Heaven Class students angrily withdrew their involvement.

After all, Lin Zhen was someone Jin Nuo focused on. They did not dare to fight Lin Zhen but could only try to threaten him in every possible way.

But Lin Zhen didn't fall for any of their tactics. With a determined gaze, he looked at Qian Tong, "Qian Tong, are you done with your tricks? If you are, prepare to meet your death!"
