Chapter 365: 365: Spiritual Power in the Late Stage of Diamonds

Translator: 549690339

In the dead of night, Lin Zhen suspended himself in the sky.

The Light Thunder Wings on his back gently flapped, scattering points of light like fireflies into the night sky.

Resonating the Light Quantum with the help of Su Mingyue brought significant improvement to Lin Zhen’s speed.

Now, Lin Zhen’s speed had reached five times the speed of sound, and the Light Thunder Wings, after five months of tempering, had achieved eight times the speed of sound.

In these five months, Lin Zhen didn’t idle away. Besides spending time with his family, the rest was spent practicing his Dantian Qi and Mental Power.

He didn’t focus too much on refining his Dantian Qi in these five months. Although it had reached the peak of a quasi-Star Realm, he was deliberately suppressing the progression of Dantian Qi’s advancement.

As a Martial Artist, it was of utmost importance to enhance one’s main system. Even the Dark Star inside Lin Zhen’s Dantian couldn’t overshadow this significance.

Especially Lin Zhen, his Dantian Qi had undergone ten times the compression. The enormous cyclone within his body was now ten times that of an uncompressed quasi-Star Realm Warrior.

Such vast potential meant that once his Dantian Qi broke through, he would definitely become a superior Star Realm Warrior.

The reason Lin Zhen hadn’t broken through to the Star Realm was because he had concerns.

When a future Black Hole appeared, what power would he use to combat it? This had been a longstanding trouble for Lin Zhen.

He must possess absolute power strong enough to escape from a Black Hole.

Lin Zhen had a faint plan in mind about how to escape.

First, he had to get the fifth meteorite from the Five Connected Pools.

The fifth meteorite was different from the previous four. The Leonid meteor shower was originally formed from a shattered planet. That meteorite was the final core of that planet.

The core contained no energy at all, but this meteorite recorded the entire process of that planet from birth to destruction.

In other words, this fifth meteorite was a witness to the growth of the planet.

In his past life, the Extraterrestrial Civilization obtained this meteorite after five hundred years. Lin Zhen also came to know the purpose of the meteorite by chance.

Not all planets have a final core; the probability of having such core was only one in several million.

If the core is formed, it serves a significant purpose. It possesses the Power of Time!

If a Martial Artist obtains this core and has some understanding, it can form a powerful battle law — Time Acceleration!

Lin Zhen deeply understood that among all the energies he possesses, none could match the power of space, not even wind, fire, light, and thunder.

Above space power was the power of time.

In his previous life, he had heard some tales about the mighty ones in the universe, but those who could control the power of time were truly formidable.

The reason Lin Zhen had been delaying the acquisition of the fifth meteorite from Ruyi Lake was that he felt he was not yet likely to comprehend the Time Stone, or the final core. Besides that, he couldn’t be sure he could defeat the water monster in Ruyi Lake.

Ruyi Lake had never been successfully explored by people of Earth. Only the Extraterrestrial Civilization could exploit it. However, even the people of Tianhe Empire experienced heavy losses while exploring Ruyi Lake.

Because the monsters in Ruyi Lake were all SSS-level.

Lin Zhen believes that with his current strength, he should be able to battle a single SSS-level monster. But in Ruyi Lake, there were ten SSS-level monsters.

This was what Lin Zhen had heard; he had not seen it with his own eyes. Hence, he had not set off for Ruyi Lake yet.

For the past five months, he had been preparing to go to Ruyi Lake. After stopping his Dantian Qi at the peak of the quasi-Star Realm, he focused on refining his Mental Power.

After months of hard cultivation, Lin Zhen’s Mental Power was finally on the brink of a breakthrough today.

Inside his Spiritual Consciousness Sea, his Mental Power grew increasingly tremendous. The diamond-like Mental Power was about to reach 60%.

Once his Mental Power reached 60% diamond-like concentration, it would mean that Lin Zhen’s Mental Power would enter the Late Diamond Stage.

The Seven Star Knives constantly hovered around Lin Zhen. Sometimes, when he exerted more Mental Power, the flying knife would even create a small spatial rift in the air.

It was now midnight, under the brilliant stars, after one round of practice, Lin Zhen’s body suddenly soared, straight to a height of ten thousand meters!

The howling Gale swept past him; Lin Zhen manipulated the Seven Star Knives, flying at a speed even faster than bullets into the distance!

He would use a method of Mental Power control knife to train his Mental Power. The further the knife could fly, the stronger his Mental Power would be.

This time, Lin Zhen’s Seven Star Knives flew a hundred miles away!

He could vaguely perceive the location of the Seven Star Knives through his thoughts. This was almost Lin Zhen’s limit of controlling the knife!

“Advance a little further!”

Under extreme pressure, Spiritual Power finally made a breakthrough!

Diamond Power increased again, surpassing sixty percent within Lin Zhen’s mind.

At this moment, Lin Zhen’s spiritual vision expanded once more.

The path of the flying knives all fell within his sight.

“Collect them!”

With a single thought, the flying knives returned directly to Lin Zhen from a hundred miles away in the blink of an eye, and he stored them within the Dark Star Space.

Only within the Dark Star could these seven knives constantly refine their elemental forces. Now, after Lin Zhen’s tempering, all the Seven Stars Knives had reached the level of Middle Grade Holy Artifacts.

Among them, the Golden Qi Seven Star Knife, after being infused with golden energy, could be as sharp as a High Grade Holy Artifact.

The Radiant Seven Star Knife, because Lin Zhen resonated with the Light Quantum, had already become a High Grade Holy Artifact.

Witnessing the breakthrough of his Spiritual Power, Lin Zhen was quietly pleased.

“Finally, a breakthrough! After five months, I’ve finally reached the Late Stage of the Diamond Period.”

“I wonder what stage would come after the Diamond Period if there is another breakthrough? But judging from my current strength, the Late Stage of the Diamond Period should be the peak on Earth.”

“I estimate that the strongest mental power on Earth absolutely won’t exceed the Diamond Period. There would be just a few who could match me.”

Lin Zhen’s body slowly fell from the sky, landing on the balcony of his villa.

Su Mingyue and An Ning were not with Lin Zhen at the moment. They each had their own paths of cultivation. These two girls had both already made a breakthrough and entered the Star Realm. On the surface, their strength was even greater than Lin Zhen’s.

Lin Zhen knew of their current positions for cultivation and was not worried about their safety.

Both these brats had condensed nine layers of Dantian Qi. Lin Zhen could boast that even the average warrior at the Early or Middle Stage of the Meteor Level could not necessarily win against them.

When he entered the room, his phone rang.

The call was from Chen Fenglie. Lin Zhen picked up, and Chen Fenglie said, “Little brother Lin, are you still at home?”

“Yes, at home.”

“You’re really good at keeping your calm. Now that the Mutated Beasts are rampant, the world is in crisis, and you’re not in a hurry to act?”

Lin Zhen sat down on the sofa, “Why should I rush? I’m not the only powerful person in the world. Besides, didn’t those two countries also have Heavenly Star Lists despite the destruction of St. Petersburg and Los Angeles? What business would it be of mine to help them? Nosey?”

Chen Fenglie laughed on the other end, “Right, we have no obligation to help other countries through crises, but, little brother Lin, the situation really isn’t good.”

“What’s the problem?”

“Did you know? The strength of the Mutated Beasts in the ocean is getting stronger. According to my investigation, the origin of these mutations is in the Bermuda Sea.”

“Brother Chen, are you trying to trick me into going to Bermuda again?”

“This is not a trick. You can check the website of the Department of Science and Technology. Their investigations have shown that the water quality changes in the Bermuda Sea are the main reason for the mutations of the marine monsters. The Beast Kings that attacked St. Petersburg and Los Angeles all came from Bermuda. If they are not eliminated promptly, the Earth will be in danger. You’re Hua Xia’s great hero, like Ultraman in the AD era. The Earth is waiting for you to save it.”

Lin Zhen laughed, “Brother Chen, stop worrying for the nation and the people. Just say what your hidden agenda is. We all know that none of us are superheroes.”

“Heh heh, then I’ll say it. The Cloud-climbing Vines in the Bermuda Sea have started to bear fruit again. These Cloud-climbing Fruits have always been contested by the masters of the Heavenly Star List. At present, only An Bihuai and I are on our side from Hua Xia. Yan Qiyue and Qing Xu are nowhere to be found. We’re in a weak position, and we’ll definitely be at a disadvantage when contesting for the fruits. So, you have to come with us. Only with your support can we stand a chance.”

For the names on the Heavenly Star List, Lin Zhen was already familiar.

Ranked first was Yan Qiyue from Hua Xia, second was Kate from European Union, third was Ice Snow Emperor from Sand Russia, fourth was Black-robed Tyrant from the United States, and fifth was Qing Xu from Hua Xia, who was also a Taoist.

An Bihuai was in tenth place, Chen Fenglie in seventeenth, and Lin Zhen in eighteenth.

If Yan Qiyue and Qing Xu were included, Hua Xia would naturally be in first. But if not, and if Lin Zhen also didn’t go, An Bihuai and Chen Fenglie would indeed be in a tight spot.

Chen Fenglie continued to persuade Lin Zhen, “Little brother Lin, I believe that this time, we must go. The Cloud-climbing Fruits contain Elemental Energy. You have resonated with several energy elements, right? This is a perfect opportunity to enhance your strength.”

“Also, I suspect the aliens you mentioned might be in Bermuda. Even if they aren’t, we could wipe out some SSS-level Mutant Beasts or team up to take down a Beast King. Not only could we rid people of a menace, but also make a fortune conveniently. How could you miss such a good opportunity?”

“When do we depart?” Lin Zhen asked.

“We’re waiting for you. If you’re willing to go, we’ll depart in three days.”

Lin Zhen laughed, “Alright. Since Brother Chen invites me so sincerely, how could I refuse? The matters here are almost settled, so let’s take a trip there.”
