Chapter 322: 322: Lin Zhen’s Star Realm (Fourth Update)

Translator: 549690339

Lin Zhen could swear to heaven that he had never seen such a spectacle before.

Inside his Dantian, within the space where the Dark Star was located, a small planet had formed.

From the inner core to the outer core, the lower mantle, the upper mantle, the asthenosphere, and the lithosphere, the crust layers were distinct, forming the core structure of the planet.

Above the planet’s surface, magma flowed, the earth’s crust moved, light fell from the sky, gale howled in the air, water elements rose, forming layers upon layers of rain clouds.

In the sky, countless dancing golden snakes raced and leaped, turning the scene above the planet into an apocalyptic spectacle.

“This is…this is…the Dark Ancient Era!”

Lin Zhen muttered this sentence.

At the beginning of a planet’s formation, there is no life, only the violent rampage of earth, water, fire, and wind; this period is called the Dark Ancient Era.

At this time, there is no mountains, continents or oceans, let alone plants and trees, human beings cannot survive under such conditions.

However, this is a necessary process for the evolution of a planet.

Lin Zhen, who had been living in the Star Realm for a long time, knew a lot about the evolution of planets, but he never dreamed that this scene would appear in his Dantian.

After a sweep of his spiritual power, Lin Zhen was extremely certain that this planet was real and not virtual.

If a planet evolves from the Dark Ancient Era to the next stage of time, it takes countless years.

From that era to the next also takes countless years, Lin Zhen doesn’t know if his Dark Star will evolve on this same path, but he Imows that now, he possesses Star Power!

Star Power is not starlight, but the fundamental power of a planet. Although his Dantian’s energy was only at the quasi-star realm, his Dark Star already had Star Power!

This Star Power was no different from the evolved Dantian energy, it was even stronger than the power he had when he entered the Star Realm in his previous life!

Lin Zhen didn’t worry about when the Dark Star would evolve, it already had now. In a way, he had already advanced to the Star Realm!

The biggest difference between the Star Realm and the non-Star Realm was the possession of Star Power. Normally, martial artists must condense a Star Core in their Dantian’s energy to have Star Power, but Lin Zhen already had it now.

Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, he took a deep breath, allowing the Star Power within the Dark Star to circulate throughout his body.

“Ha!”

This force suddenly released!

At this moment, it was like the shockwave after a small nuclear explosion, Lin Zhen was at the core of the explosion, and the shockwave spread rapidly outward!

The surrounding air formed an air wave, propelled by a powerful force, starting with the ceiling above Lin Zhen’s head.

He was sitting on the top floor of the Zhao Dong Building, but not on the rooftop. The ceiling above him was pushed upward by the air wave, piercing through the sky!

Then it was underneath him; the building, which had stood for thousands of years without collapsing and was earthquake-resistant up to level 10, suddenly collapsed!

Rumble, rumble!

The building shattered like a decaying skeleton, dust flying everywhere, mixed with the flurry of snow, it was a sight to behold.

However, Lin Zhen did not fall with the collapsing building. He remained sitting in mid-air. With Star Power, flying and teleporting became instincts. Even without his Lightning Wings or spiritual power, he could fly and hover as he wished!

Starlight circulated around his body, and at this moment, before the sky fully brightened, he looked like a star in the night sky!

After about an hour, Lin Zhen finally fully adapted to the power within him.

Slowly opening his eyes, he could see all the way to the soaring mutated birds above the Ice City Region.

Those were mutated birds attacking the city.

Lin Zhen raised his hand, gesturing toward the group of flying birds dozens of kilometers away.

Gravitational pull!

A huge gravitational force enveloped them. Within the range of his palm, dozens of mutated birds were suddenly pulled towards him!

No, not just flying towards him, but being forcibly sucked in!

The distance of dozens of kilometers was covered in less than five seconds. The struggles and cries of those mutated birds were of no effect. As they approached within a few hundred meters of Lin Zhen, he slightly clenched his hand.

“Puff! Puff! Puff!”

The group of mutated geese, crows, and so on were crushed in mid-air into individual blood orbs!

“Phew! This is the real gravitational pull, Gravity Explosion! I might be the only person in the world who can do this.”

“With this gravitational pull, not to mention a few mutated birds, even a star realm expert could be crushed to death with a single blow!”

As Lin Zhen slowly stood up, feeling the swell of power within him, he couldn’t help but let out a long howl at the sky!

The sound echoed through the sky, lingering for a long time.

With the excitement in his heart fully vented, Lin Zhen finally calmed down.

He took out his phone and checked the situation in Ice City.

A huge headline caught his eye.

“Farewell to Ice City, Breaking the City Today!”

Two days have passed since Lin Zhen’s last cultivation, and once again, Ice City had undergone dramatic changes.

Shen Lixing, along with a group of people, wanted to join Allen and rejoin the Star Sky Divine Teaching. Meanwhile, Martial Artists like An Ning, Zhao Xiaoman, Feng Ni, Tang Wenbo, and others firmly opposed joining.

The two sides could not agree, and the Mutated Beasts’ attacks on the city became increasingly fierce. Soldiers from the City Defense Army and participating Martial Artists were continuously carried off like a flowing stream.

As their numbers dwindled and internal opinions remained divided, it seemed Ice City was already without hope.

Lin Zhen even saw a video of An Ning and Shen Lixing’s heated argument.

After a glance, Lin Zhen put away his phone. He didn’t need to watch anymore. Ice City was only a hundred miles away. He would just go there.

He didn’t take out his flying device, but instead had his Lightning Wings appear behind him.

Just as he was about to fly to Ice City, he felt that Xiao Nuan inside the Black Ghost had awakened.

Releasing Xiao Nuan, Lin Zhen was startled by her appearance.

Xiao Nuan’s body length was now close to five meters, her size on par with Lin Zhen. Her mane resembled burning flames, and the adorable appearance from before was gone, replaced by a much larger creature.

On top of Xiao Nuan’s head, there were even two small bumps, as if she was about to grow horns.

She happily called out to Lin Zhen, and a strong sulfur smell sprayed from her nostrils. Shaking her head, rays of light shot out from her fur.

“What exactly are you, little guy? I know some Galaxy Beast breeds, but I’ve never seen one like you before.”

Xiao Nuan happily jumped around Lin Zhen for a while, then Lin Zhen suddenly laughed: “Let’s see if you can catch up to me this time. The destination is Ice City. Let’s see who gets there first!”

With that, Lin Zhen suddenly teleported away!

This time it was a Star Power teleportation. Before, Lin Zhen’s Spiritual Power teleportation had a maximum range of no more than 300 meters, but this time, he appeared a full kilometer away!

With a flap of his Lightning Wings, Lin Zhen turned into a streak of light and sped towards Ice City!

Xiao Nuan called out behind him and started to chase after Lin Zhen with her four claws spread wide.

“No! I absolutely do not accept your opinion. We don’t believe in any ‘True God of the Stars’, so why should we join the Gods Clan?” An Ning stared at Shen Lixing in front of her, her attitude resolute.

“Miss An Ning, please don’t be stubborn. The situation in Ice City is not just about you. This concerns the lives of tens of millions of people. The Great Divine Sect has already said that as long as everyone in Ice City declares their allegiance to the Gods Clan, they will come to rescue Ice City from its dire plight. Isn’t that a good outcome?”

By An Ning’s side, Zhao Xiaoman snorted coldly: “Hmph! I don’t believe their nonsense. If they could save us, why didn’t they do it earlier? Why not save us right now? They’re just trying to take advantage of our desperate situation. What’s the point of such a rescue? If we don’t join them, do they really plan to just watch? If that’s the case, not joining such an inhumane organization is for the best.”

Feng Ni also spoke coldly, “I feel the same way. If they want to save us, they shouldn’t put forth these conditions. We don’t care for it. If you want to join, you can go ahead and join. We don’t need their help. If necessary, we’ll break through and leave the city.”

Shen Lixing angrily responded, “Why can’t you guys understand? Allen’s attitude is very clear. Everyone must join; if even one person doesn’t, the Gods Clan won’t send troops. I think their present attitude is already very compassionate. Ice City is globally unique in that everyone left the Gods Clan. If I were Allen, I might have genuinely stood by and watched. Isn’t their present attitude already merciful enough?”

From Ice City, Xin Rughai asked, “If we don’t join, what will you do?”

Shen Lixing paused for a moment, then spoke softly, “You’d better not force me to choose, because neither of us has a choice right now. As the commander in chief, I have to consider the welfare of tens of millions of people in Ice City.”

Tang Wenbo sneered, “You can spare us the act. If it wasn’t for your poor command, we wouldn’t have missed so many opportunities in previous battles, losing the beheading team later on, and ending up in this desperate situation. We could have held out for another ten days to half a month without any problem.”

“That’s all in the past now. What’s the use of talking about it?” Shen Lixing’s face turned red as he defended himself.

He pointed towards the city, “Look at all these Mutated Beasts! They can’t be killed off. On what basis can we resist? The city’s fall is only a matter of time. You guys don’t have any solutions, but now you’re here to deny mine. Is this your style? Believing in the Gods Clan can at least save lives. Can you guarantee that everyone will survive?”

An Ning took a deep breath, “Lin Zhen said he would come.”

“Lin Zhen… ha! Miss An Ning, Mr. Lin Zhen is indeed a hero, but this is not the place for personal heroism. What can he do if he comes now? At most, he will kill a few more Mutated Beasts. I, Shen Lixing, am not a three-year-old child. He is your beloved, so of course you stand up for him, but I won’t.”

Seeing that this person simply couldn’t be reasoned with, An Ning stopped trying to argue: “Same as before, we will not join. What do you intend to do?”

Shen Lixing sneered, “In that case, I have to think about the people of Ice City. You people have only two choices. One is to break through and leave Ice City right now, and the other… is for my people to capture you and help you join forcibly. Ice City’s future cannot be delayed by you!”

As he spoke, he pointed towards the city wall, where the Gods Clan’s army was waiting for his news just a hundred miles away. So, he had his plan.

He didn’t notice, however, that in the sky, where he pointed, a group of Mutated birds suddenly disappeared..
