Chapter 550: Chapter 551: Lin Zhen’s Counterattack Moment! (Third update)

With the Star Illusion Stone in hand, it is half-real and half-illusionary.

With a thought from Lin Zhen, the all-consuming black hole appeared above his head and easily absorbed the Star Illusion Stone into his body.

In the next moment, the Star Illusion Stone appeared within Lin Zhen’s Dantian.

With both his main body and avatar sitting cross-legged within the Dark Star Space, there was a mysterious connection between them.

Between Lin Zhen’s Dantian and the Dark Star Space, there was an intersecting space.

This was the connected area of the Twinborn Netherstones; if the Dark Star Space was considered real, then the Dantian was considered illusory. The intersecting spaces entangle with each other and become the connecting points for Lin Zhen’s two sources of Star Power, yet they do not interfere with each other.

The Star Illusion Stone entered Lin Zhen’s body, finally stopping at the connection between his Dantian and the Dark Star Space.

When the Star Illusion Stone arrived here, it seemed to have found its home; the real half was on the side of the Dark Star, and the illusory half was on the side of the Dantian. It was simultaneously embedded in both.

Half of it was light, the other half darkness.

Perhaps due to the crossover of spaces, or due to the avatar being within the Dark Star Space, this node had become the key to connecting Star Power.

Lin Zhen’s avatar possessed 6,000 units of Star Power. At the moment when Lin Zhen’s thought moved, only one unit of Star Power remained, while all the rest had been transferred to the Star Illusion Stone.

“Star Energy Transfer!”

A burst of dim blue light flickered, with as much as 6,000 units of Star Power being injected. The light on the surface of the Star Illusion Stone surged dramatically, and through its illusory side, the immense Star Power arrived into the real side.

Within an instant, the Star Power within Lin Zhen’s Dantian soared!

It went from 7,500 to 13,500 in a flash!

With such strong Star Power raging within his Dantian, Lin Zhen felt as though it could hardly contain such a massive amount of energy.

“This… this is indeed powerful. I’ve never felt so strong before!”

Although his avatar had almost completely lost its fighting capabilities and could no longer fight, Lin Zhen’s main body had instantly become a powerful deity-level fighter.

Now, if Lin Zhen were to return to the arena, he would almost be invulnerable!

With such formidable power, Lin Zhen could hardly wait to find someone to fight.

*********

“Over here! Someone’s passed by here! There’s someone in that pit!”

A Tier One Star System warrior, accompanied by six or seven Black Hole Stage martial artists, arrived at the pit.

“Look! There’s someone at the far end!”

A sharp-eyed martial artist in the Black Hole Stage spotted Lin Zhen sitting at the far end.

“It really is Lin Zhen. We must immediately report to Xuan Jiang.”

The Star System Stage martial artist immediately sent Xuan Jiang a message within the Dimensional Universe, informing him of Lin Zhen’s location. Since Lin Zhen had just sat there without moving, he even took a photo as evidence.

Upon receiving the message, Xuan Jiang burst into laughter: “Well done! I’ll be right there. Each of you will receive a million Cosmic Crystals. I’ll transfer them to you right now.”

“Thank you, Xuan Jiang!”

These martial artists were ecstatic; receiving a million Cosmic Crystals just like that, they were living the dream.

Having received the money, they didn’t leave in a hurry. A Black Hole Stage warrior hesitated for a moment before saying to the Star System Stage one, “Brother Hu, you said that Lin Zhen is only at the Black Hole Middle Stage. Is he truly that strong? We believe that he is a genius compared to us, but I absolutely cannot believe that he is even stronger than you.”

“Yeah, no matter how strong he is, he is still just at the Black Hole Stage. Brother Hu, you are a super powerful martial artist at the Star System Stage. Honestly, I have never seen a Black Hole Stage martial artist who could compete with someone at the Star System Stage.”

“Well, this issue… It’s really hard to say. In fact, I don’t believe that a Black Hole Middle Stage warrior could contend with me. But the Fire Kirin has been hyping him up quite a lot. Perhaps he truly has some extraordinary abilities.”

Brother Hu was still cautious and didn’t act recklessly.

“Brother Hu, do you think if we take action and take down or capture Lin Zhen, Xuan Jiang would give us even more rewards?”

“I was thinking the same thing. Even if Lin Zhen is a genius and we aren’t a match for him, wouldn’t we still be able to at least escape? That would be too absurd. No matter how powerful a Black Hole Stage warrior is, there’s a limit.”

Brother Hu’s eyes flickered for a moment, and he finally made up his mind.

“Then let’s give it a try, but be very cautious and don’t take unnecessary risks.”

“Don’t worry, Brother Hu. We’ll use our group wolf tactics and surround him.”

One Star System Tier warrior, accompanied by seven Black Hole Stage warriors, slowly approached Lin Zhen.

Along the way, they were extremely cautious and didn’t make any reckless moves. However, with Lin Zhen just sitting motionless, their tactics seemed somewhat useless.

Brother Hu waved his hand, and the eight of them closed in from all directions.

From the east, west, south, and north, as well as the southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest, there were no dead angles. It was because this area had a no-fly zone.

Step by step, inching forward, the eight people closed in on Lin Zhen who was still motionless, now only ten meters away.

“Ugh…are we really being too cautious? Is a Black Hole Middle Stage worth it? Let me record this and send it to Xuan Jiang.”

Brother Hu activated the recording system of the dimensional universe and sent the image to Xuan Jiang.

“Xuan Jiang, this Lin Zhen is nothing special. We are already within ten meters of him, and he still has no reaction. If we all attack him at this distance, we could definitely kill him. You decide if we should do it.”

Xuan Jiang, who had already approached the entrance of the valley with his men, was stunned by the image before cursing, “Who told you to get close? Get away quickly! Lin Zhen may be a scoundrel, but he’s not someone you can mess with. Trying to do that is just asking for death, understand?”

“Is it really that exaggerated? I guarantee with my honor that he can’t be as powerful as the legends say. If you don’t believe me, just watch… Ah!”

Before Brother Hu could finish his sentence, Lin Zhen’s eyes suddenly opened in the image.

When a martial artist finishes their training, there’s a process of releasing star power, which doesn’t have much destructive power. But if there’s a significant difference in strength, it could still knock people out or send them flying.

A layer of star power emitted from Lin Zhen’s body, and the surrounding eight martial artists only felt an overwhelming force, as if their internal organs had been shattered!

“Pff, pff, pff~~!”

Eight men simultaneously spat out blood, their organs shattered!

“This…this is impossible…his star power…how…how strong is it?”

After uttering his last words, Brother Hu’s body fell limply, and he died on the spot!

He reached Star System Level 1, with a star power of 305, and thought he was strong enough to face Lin Zhen, or at least retreat calmly. But he had never imagined that the gap between them was so large.

This star power must be over 10,000!

He wanted to alert Xuan Jiang to be cautious, but he no longer had the strength.

Lin Zhen killed the eight men with a single wave of star power but was too lazy to even collect their Space Rings.

It was just like a billionaire wouldn’t bother taking coins from the bodies of dead people, feeling no need to do so.

His gaze fell on the entrance of the hollow, where a group of people led by Xuan Jiang was rushing in.

There were as many as a hundred people, many of whom Lin Zhen somewhat recognized: the same old Tier Nine Star System martial artists who had challenged him in a chain.

Xuan Jiang led the people right up to Lin Zhen, glanced at the dead bodies on the ground, and smirked: “Lin Zhen, you stray dog still know how to play boss, huh? How do you feel after killing some Black Hole Period shrimps?”

“Xuan Jiang, don’t forget that I’m just a Black Hole Middle Stage too. You brought a whole army to capture me; do you feel accomplished?”

Xuan Jiang didn’t know how to respond. After dealing with Lin Zhen for so long, he had almost forgotten that Lin Zhen was just a Black Hole Middle Stage and always treated him as an equal.

“Lin Zhen, I won’t waste my time arguing with you. It’s pointless. You won’t escape my grasp today, no matter what.”

“Really? I look forward to it.”

“Lin Zhen, I know you’ve obtained the third level of the Taiyuan Sword Skill. Hand it over, and you might have a slim chance of survival.”

Lin Zhen sneered, “Do you take me for a three-year-old? Xuan Jiang, your intelligence is worrisome.”

“You don’t know what’s good for you, Lin Zhen. At this point, haven’t you given up yet?”

“Form the array!”

Upon Xuan Jiang’s command, over a hundred Tier Nine Star System martial artists quickly formed a large array.

This formation was not very sophisticated, but it completely blocked Lin Zhen’s escape routes from all directions.

Xuan Jiang took out a sword from his Space Ring, “Lin Zhen, you’ve never seen this, have you? This is the World Piercer Sword. I know you’re proficient in space law and could potentially escape through space. Maybe that’s your confidence in challenging me. But you never expected that this sword can pierce space, and even if you hide in an extradimensional space, you won’t escape!”

Lin Zhen glanced at the martial artists surrounding him and at Xuan Jiang, “To capture me, you really spared no expense.”

“Of course, I’ve always been cautious. You’re worth 300 billion cosmic crystals and possess the Taiyuan Sword Skill. I’ve never fought a war unprepared.”

“What if your people can’t defeat me? Have you ever considered that?”

“What did you say?” Xuan Jiang thought he had heard some ludicrous joke and couldn’t believe his ears.

“Pff, Pff!”

Lin Zhen suddenly attacked like lightning, unleashing Phantom God Strike, and the might of his spear technique instantly swept across the battlefield!

As his spear flashed, the throats of five Tier Nine Star System martial artists were pierced, and they died on the spot!

You must understand that those Xuan Jiang brought were no ordinary people; each martial artist had practiced for hundreds of years and, individually, could be an emperor in a primary civilization universe country!

Yet they were slaughtered like chickens by Lin Zhen!

“Since your ears don’t work well, I’ll say it again. Have you ever considered what you would do if your people can’t defeat me? Huh, tell me.”
