Chapter 595: Chapter 596: Mirror Space
This scene really got the audience’s hearts skipping a beat.
It’s believed that as the large screen broadcasted Ke Xiangnan’s charge, the Wolf Clan Martial Artist had quietly launched his charge simultaneously.
Ke Xiangnan did surpass the Demon and Dragon Clans’, but he never thought that the Wolf Clan Martial Artist would keep closely following in his footsteps, and at the last moment, he launched his real charge!
This wasn’t maintaining the previous pace, but a true charge, doubling the speed all at once!
Ninety-two… ninety-three… ninety-four!
When it reached 950,000 kilometers, everyone cheered!
Because the Wolf Clan Martial Artist had caught up to Ke Xiangnan!
The previously steady-as-a-rock Ke Xiangnan was finally panic-stricken!
No matter the previous situation, he was always following his own pace. That was because he had confidence in himself. Others only had less than 100,000 Star Power, so no matter their tricks, they were no match for him.
But now, this Wolf Clan Martial Artist could still charge! And it was at more than 900,000 kilometers. What did that mean?
It means that this person’s Star Power must be more than 100,000, not equal to 100,000, but greater than 100,000!
How could such a person exist? Who was he?
Ke Xiangnan wanted to know the answer, but he had no time to find out now. His greatest wish now was to charge as quickly as possible, to cross the line and secure first place!
Ke Xiangnan’s Star Power was just over 100,000, and if he advanced steadily, he would certainly pass the Heavenly Gate. If he accelerated, it was uncertain.
But at this moment, he had no time to think about it; he immediately used the little Star Power remaining and started the final charge!
The charge was effective. Recklessly, he raced to pass the Wolf Clan Martial Artist, and their distance grew closer and closer.
By the time it reached 970,000 kilometers, the two were almost neck and neck.
Just when Ke Xiangnan thought he still had a chance, the Wolf Clan Martial Artist next to him suddenly turned around to look at him.
“You know why I waited until this moment to exert my full strength? Because I want you to know what it’s like to experience despair again just as hope is in sight.”
“What… what did you say?”
“You don’t understand? Then I will quickly let you know with facts that you have no chance of winning. I will defeat you in the final moments, Ke Xiangnan, you are finished!”
Although both of them were moving side by side, the other’s ease allowed Ke Xiangnan to know that the opponent’s Star Power was definitely above him, and by a lot. The opponent was purposely toying with him.
With gritted teeth, he said, “Who are you, and why are you doing this?”
“You dare ask why? But have you ever wondered, when your brother led his men to hunt Lin Zhen to clear your obstacles, did they ever ask why?”
“You are Lin Zhen!” Ke Xiangnan’s eyes widened instantly.
The Wolf Clan Martial Artist was of course Lin Zhen. He showed a smile that Ke Xiangnan would never forget and then suddenly accelerated!
This time it was true acceleration. Lin Zhen’s Star Power was as high as 120,000. Surpassing Ke Xiangnan was not a difficult task. In the final moments, he had plenty of Star Power to squander!
At 980,000 kilometers, Ke Xiangnan was still struggling to catch up, but on the way to 990,000 kilometers, he had already been left far behind by Lin Zhen.
One speeding up, one slowing down, the gap between them instantly grew to a few hundred meters.
Lin Zhen still had spare power; he didn’t have to overtake, as he could not even guarantee to pass the Heavenly Gate in the final scramble.
When it reached 990,000 kilometers, everyone knew it was over.
This mysterious Wolf Clan Martial Artist had completed a great reversal, surpassing Ke Xiangnan, known as the first genius of the New World. He was about to become the first Martial Artist to pass the Heavenly Gate during the Black Hole Period.
Maybe there will be more Black Hole Period passers in the future, but no one can change the fact that he was the first.
At this moment, almost everyone was asking who this Wolf Clan member was; such a god-like figure shouldn’t be unheard of.
Only Ke Jianglong and Elder Qin wore deathly pale expressions on their faces.
At this moment, Ke Xiangdong came over and whispered to Ke Jianglong, “Father! This person is Lin Zhen!”
“Are you sure?” Ke Jianglong suddenly turned and asked.
“100%, Xiangnan won’t make it up there. He already sent me a message.”
“You bastard! I never thought such a cunning kid would be chasing you!”
“It might… it might be his clone. I just found out that this kid has a clone.”
Ke Jianglong slapped Ke Xiangdong’s face, sending him hurtling to the side. He then asked Elder Qin, “Elder Qin, what should we do?”
Elder Qin’s face was gloomy: “What else can we do? Knock him down. We can’t afford to lose face!”
“Hit… knock him down?” Ke Jianglong was startled.
“Cut the crap! If you don’t act now, it’ll be too late. Remember, your son can try again next time, but if he loses the first place, it’s gone forever.”
Upon hearing this, Ke Jianglong gritted his teeth. Elder Qin was right, that was his son up there, not someone else’s. It was up to him to act.
“Lin Zhen, get down from there!”
Ke Jianglong raised his hand, and a streak of light rushed towards the sky!
When a World King Powerhouse takes action, even if it’s not at light speed, it’s still faster than sub-light speed. In just ten seconds, he caught up with Lin Zhen, who was about to reach the top!
Feeling a chill behind him, Lin Zhen’s hair stood on end!
This was an unprecedented sense of crisis!
A casual strike from a World King had the power to kill Lin Zhen!
Especially at the moment when Lin Zhen’s star power was nearly exhausted, even though there was a million-kilometer distance between them, if Lin Zhen insisted on reaching the top, he would undoubtedly die!
Looking at the Heavenly Gate just within reach, Lin Zhen’s heart was filled with resentment, never expecting such treachery and ruthlessness from the opponent.
Attacking other people who were trying to reach the top at the Heavenly Gate was undoubtedly not allowed, but he didn’t know what kind of punishment would be given. Regardless of the punishment received by the attacker, Lin Zhen would fail this time.
Left with no choice, Lin Zhen twisted his body, narrowly avoiding the fatal attack just before reaching the top.
Reaching out his hand, Lin Zhen could already feel the aura of the Original World. On the other side was an incredibly vast and vibrant new world, with Little Phoenix waiting for him. But he could no longer go there.
His body left the charging point, and an even greater pressure descended from the sky, causing Lin Zhen to fall.
“Whoosh!”
Everyone was in an uproar over this sudden change, leaving them all dumbfounded.
“Damn it! Can World Kings really act so recklessly?”
“Is no one going to do anything about this? Why can they attack other martial artists at their whim?”
“Where’s Zhuiyue the God? Isn’t he the Heavenly Gate Guardian? He should definitely intervene in such blatant cheating.”
“What a pity, that Wolf Clan martial artist lost this chance. Who knows if he’ll succeed next time?”
“Look! It’s Lin Zhen! So that martial artist was Lin Zhen!”
People looked up at the sky, where Lin Zhen had already fallen. After being attacked, his disguise was undone. There was no need to hide anymore. He had to let everyone know about the unfair treatment he had received.
Ke Jianglong’s face darkened as he listened to the uproar around him. Elder Qin had incited him to attack Lin Zhen just now, and the Heavenly Gate Guardian would likely not let him off the hook.
But at this moment, Elder Qin handed him an object.
“Brother Ke, since you’ve already acted, there’s no turning back. Seeing Lin Zhen like this, he might still have a chance next time. This is a treasure from the Original World called Mirror Space. It can seal a person in a different dimension, making them unable to feel the passage of time until their life is exhausted. Use it to attack Lin Zhen, and he will never have another chance, not even Zhuiyue the God can save him.”
“Can this… can this really work?”
“Heh heh! Womanly compassion. I’m willing to part with this treasure, so don’t hesitate. Otherwise, when Zhuiyue the God appears, your son won’t get the first place.”
Elder Qin patted Ke Jianglong’s shoulder, saying, “It’s up to you to protect your son, or both of you will accomplish nothing. The choice is yours.”
Ke Jianglong held the cold mirror-like object in his hand, feeling the powerful spiritual energy contained within.
This was a treasure from the Original World. In the New World, the strongest items were called Heavenly Tools, which mainly had offensive and defensive functions. Only the Original World had treasures.
Treasures were all items with special purposes.
This Mirror Space treasure could seal a life forever in a different dimension until that life faded away, never to see the light of day again.
Unless the person trapped inside had more powerful strength than the caster, they couldn’t break free.
Considering that it was cast by a World King, Lin Zhen had no chance of breaking it, even if he was the number one in the Black Hole Period.
After weighing his options, Ke Jianglong saw that the Heavenly Gate was already experiencing fluctuations due to his violation of the rules – the Heavenly Gate Guardian was about to appear.
At this moment, Elder Qin whispered, “Don’t worry, I gave you this item because as long as you don’t kill Lin Zhen, you won’t die.”
With this reassurance, Ke Jianglong thought of his son and steeled his resolve. Having done it once, there was no psychological pressure in doing it a second time.
“Lin Zhen! Don’t blame me. You brought this upon yourself for blocking my son’s path. Now disappear forever!”
He flicked the Mirror Space, and a burst of blue light instantly enveloped Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen’s body, which hadn’t landed yet, was immediately enveloped by an unstoppable force!
In an instant, ghostly lights flickered, space twisted, and interwoven grids of white blanketed the area around him.
Everything around him vanished, leaving only the seemingly eternal deep space that opened its mouth wide, swallowing him completely into darkness.
“Not good! This is a different dimension! I’m trapped in a different dimension!”
