Chapter 527: Chapter 528: The Insane Plan of the Insect Clan! (3rd Update)

The Black Hole Period is the tribulation for Martial Artists.

During this tribulation, the strength of Martial Artists will rapidly increase. Surviving it cannot ensure eternal life, but it certainly bridges the vast gap that exists between the Constant Star Stage and the Black Hole period.

Among the vast universe, the number of Martial Artists in the Black Hole Period is countless, like the sands of the Ganges River, but those in the Star System Stage are much fewer.

Lin Zhen believes that his strength is invincible in the Constant Star Stage. Normally, passing through the Black Hole Period would not be difficult for him, but it is precisely because his soul has traversed through a black hole that he hesitates to take this step.

However, he has been delayed on the Suspended Island for four years already. Lin Zhen is worried that if he takes too long, he may not be able to resurrect Little Phoenix.

So, he cannot afford any more delays. After three months of entering the tenth row of stone pillars and comprehending the 101-fold time deceleration, he is prepared to try and break through.

In fact, in the past few years, Lin Zhen has been suppressing his desire to break through. His Star Power has long reached the critical point of breakthrough. He has compressed and controlled it to the point where it can no longer be compressed.

“Huff! Let’s begin!”

“Commander, we are ready.”

Outside the Suspended Island, the Insect Clan’s overwhelming army has prepared for an unprecedented massive operation.

After staying here for four years, the Mantis Commander has had enough. He doesn’t want to stay in this ghostly place for another day, hour, or minute!

However, before he leaves, he must do one thing – kill Lin Zhen!

He has been preparing for four years for this. In fact, since Lin Zhen entered the Suspended Island, the Mantis Commander has been scheming and acting on his plans.

The first step of his plan is to gather all four Insect Clan Nests near the Suspended Island.

The Insect Clan’s Nest absorbs free energy from cosmic space and then breeds countless Insect Clan Warriors.

Over the past four years, without any threats to the Insect Clan’s existence, the outskirts of the Suspended Island have amassed countless Insect Clan Warriors!

The Mantis Commander’s plan is ambitious – he wants to break through the meteor belt of the Suspended Island.

The meteor belt and the space storm of the Suspended Island have a width of 100,000 kilometers. The Mantis Commander’s plan is to use human wave tactics to force a path into the Suspended Island’s periphery, using the massive number of ordinary warriors to block the meteor belt with their lives.

Each Insect Clan Warrior will release their Star Power to the utmost and use their lives as a wall to stop the meteor belt’s movement!

In theory, if the Insect Clan Warriors are infinite in number, they can completely stop all the meteor belts.

Blocking a meteor belt that spans 100,000 kilometers with one’s flesh and blood would involve countless sacrifices. No race could do it, except for the Insect Clan!

Moreover, the Mantis Commander’s plan isn’t particularly difficult. He doesn’t need to completely halt the meteor belt – as long as he builds a wall of flesh and blood to slow down the meteor belt and weaken the space storm, his elite team will be able to enter the Suspended Island!

Insect Clan Warriors below the Black Hole Period are nothing but tools!

Tools that the higher-ups of the Insect Clan can freely manipulate, ordering them to live or die as they please, without any disobedience. Over these four years, the Mantis Commander has stockpiled an uncountable number of warriors on the island, waiting for this day.

“Are we sure we have enough warriors?”

“Commander, we definitely have enough. For the past four years, we’ve focused on amassing warrior numbers. Producing low-level warriors from the Nests doesn’t consume much energy. With four Nests producing hundreds of thousands of warriors every day, we have accumulated over a billion warriors in four years!”

The cannon fodder that the Nests breed are mostly low-level warriors. Comet Stage and Satellite Stage warriors are considered high-ranking, and many are ordinary Star Realm Insect Clan Warriors.

At this moment, the Mantis Commander doesn’t need too many high-level warriors. The sheer amount of weak warriors is more than enough to block the meteor belt.

“Great! Let’s begin the operation now.”

As the Beetle Marshal under his command is about to execute the task, the Mantis Commander suddenly stops him: “Wait a minute.”

“Do you have any other orders?”

“Don’t just simply do it. Lin Zhen won first place in the last Killing List, having killed hundreds of our Constant Star Stage Warriors. I heard that in the Fire Kirin Empire, many people regard Lin Zhen as a hero. To this day, the first prize on the Killing List is still reserved for him, and countless youngsters idolize him.”

“It seems true. Even today, many Fire Kirin people want to come to the Chaotic Star River to find Lin Zhen and save him. If not for our tight encirclement around Suspended Island preventing their passage, many people would have already arrived.”

“Hehe! That’s perfect. Since they consider Lin Zhen as a hero, let’s show them what’s called a hero’s end. Live broadcast our operation in the Dimensional Universe, and let them witness firsthand how their hero is slaughtered by us!”

Hearing the Mantis’s suggestion, the Beetle’s eyes lit up instantly: “Great idea! But Commander, all of us here are from the Insect Clan Empire. Even if we put it in the Dimensional Universe, it’ll be watched by people from the Insect Clan Empire. We don’t have any account in any Fire Kirin forum, nor do we have that identity.”

“That’s not a problem. We don’t have it, but someone does. I’ll find someone to post it for us very soon.”

“Hehe~~!! Lin Zhen, don’t think you’re safe by hiding in Suspended Island like a Turtle! Today, let your Empire witness the arrival of your doomsday!”

A major event happened on the forum of the Fire Kirin Empire.

Tianci, who is also from the Sanjiang Star Domain Federation like Lin Zhen, posted a shocking video online.

The content of the video comes from the heart of the Chaotic Star River, Suspended Island. The title is “Genius Doomsday, Insect Clan’s Siege.”

In the video, countless Insect Clan Warriors fill the view, so dense that people with a fear of crowded spaces might vomit on the spot.

These Insect Clan Warriors seem to have gone insane, crazily assaulting the asteroid belt surrounding Suspended Island.

The asteroid belt around Suspended Island, with a width of 100,000 kilometers, is spinning rapidly. Space storms run rampant within it, making it almost impossible to pass through.

The Insect Clan Warriors charge over and unleash their full Star Power, slamming directly into the asteroids!

Their power pales in comparison to the high-speed running asteroids, but it’s enough to slightly slow them down.

That’s enough. The second Insect Clan Warrior immediately follows up to slow the asteroid further.

Then the third, fourth, one hundredth, ten thousandth!

All Insect Clan Warriors are willing to sacrifice themselves, coordinating seamlessly. Every advancement and Star Power explosion is precisely timed, showcasing the Insect Clan’s terrifying execution!

Countless Insect Clan Warriors unleash their Star Power regardless of life and death, forcibly stopping a large number of asteroids. The piled-up asteroids become more robust as others crash into them, further solidifying the wall!

Gradually, the outline of a passage leading to the depths of the Suspended Island emerges!

“My god! Have these insects gone mad? What are they trying to do?”

“Committing suicide? But this suicide seems meaningless. Even if they forcibly stop this asteroid belt, what difference would it make?”

“What are you guys thinking? Have you seen the title of the video? This is Suspended Island, the place where the Insect Clan has besieged Lin Zhen! They want to block the asteroid belt, then rush into the Suspended Island and kill Lin Zhen!”

“No! This can’t be true. The Insect Clan is willing to pay such a heavy price to kill Lin Zhen. Is it worth it?”

“You don’t understand at all. Insect Clan’s low-level warriors are worthless and countless. What’s truly valuable are the high-level warriors. They will pave the way with the lives of countless low-level warriors, trying to break through this passage. But who is Lin Zhen? He’s the genius of our Empire, ranked first on the killer list.”

“No! Our Empire can’t stand by and watch. We must save Lin Zhen, no matter what. If we abandon our hero in trouble, what hope does our country have?”

“The Chaotic Star River is a place where you can only enter the Star System Stage at most. Saving Lin Zhen is nearly impossible. Don’t be naive.”

Threads and discussions flooded the entire Fire Kirin Empire. Some thought rationally about the various drawbacks of attempting to rescue Lin Zhen. Still, they were drowned out by the majority of voices.

Most people believed that, at any cost, Lin Zhen must be saved.

The incident quickly swept the whole country. The asteroid belt in the Chaotic Star River is 100,000 kilometers long. Breaking through the passage by the Insect Clan is not just a matter of one or two days. There might still be enough time.

The matter alarmed the royal family of the Fire Kirin Empire. As a result, Tian Haoyu even made a speech, stating that they could not abandon their national hero and would send a special task force to the Chaotic Star River to rescue Lin Zhen.

The special task force consisted of fifty expert Star System Stage members from the Empire’s military.

Their mission was to rescue Lin Zhen from the sea of insects at all costs. At worst, they had to stop the Insect Clan’s crazy plan, giving Lin Zhen a chance to survive.

The leader’s mission even allowed some losses in exchange for Lin Zhen’s safe return.

Of course, such things could not be told to the public. The public only knew that the rescue team for Lin Zhen had set off and would arrive at the Suspended Island in the Chaotic Star River within half a month.

The whole nation scolded Tianci, who helped the Insect Clan broadcast the video. No one knew why he would assist the Insect Clan in accomplishing their mission.

However, no one knew Tianci’s exact location and could do nothing to him. Moreover, people needed Tianci’s update on the video situation so that they could keep track of Lin Zhen’s information timely.

But in just one week, the Insect Clan had completed more than half of their plan. The 80,000-kilometer-long passage had already been forged, and although the Insect Clan had lost seven to eight hundred million warriors, the full passage would be completed with only 20,000 kilometers left. It seemed that Lin Zhen was beyond saving!
