Chapter 674: Chapter 676: Feng Dao

Hearing Ning Qingxuan’s words, Liang Zhihuan laughed and said, “Oh, I almost forgot, the queen knows Lin Zhen. What do you think of Lin Zhen’s strength?”

Ning Qingxuan’s face didn’t show much change, “I’ve had a brief encounter with him before, and his strength is quite impressive. He probably hasn’t been going all out yet.”

“Really? But I think he won’t make it. I’m sure he’s destined to be eliminated.”

“That’s not the case. I think he’ll get a good ranking.” Ning Qingxuan shook her head slightly. Although she seemed indifferent, she didn’t want to give an inch when it came to Lin Zhen, even to the emperor. In Ning Qingxuan’s heart, the emperor was just the emperor, not her lover.

“How about a small bet? If Lin Zhen can make it to the top five million, I’ll reward him with something.”

“What kind of reward?” Ning Qingxuan asked.

Seeing Ning Qingxuan asking this, Liang Zhihuan felt a sour taste in his heart: “Free access to all teleportation arrays in the Nan Liang Country! If he can’t enter the top five million, then the queen will have to dine with me every day.”

Ning Qingxuan thought for a moment and said, “What if he enters the top one million?”

“That’s even better. Since he’s an alchemist, the royal medicinal materials warehouse will be open to him, and he can purchase whatever he wants.”

“What about within a hundred thousand?” Ning Qingxuan asked with a tilted head, a hint of a smile on her face.

“Half-priced materials!”

“What about within ten thousand?”

“The queen must be joking. If he can enter the top ten thousand, we’ll sell him the materials at a 90% discount!”

“What about within a thousand?” Ning Qingxuan continued to ask.

Liang Zhihuan laughed, “If he can enter the top thousand, I’ll go out to welcome him dressed in red, treating him as a hero. It’s just a shame that he might not live up to my expectations!”

Entering the top thousand was simply a dream in Liang Zhihuan’s view.

“Your Majesty better not make too many promises. In case he actually obtains the chance to temper his divine body, how will you clean up the mess then?”

“The queen shouldn’t overestimate him. No one from our Nan Liang Empire has ever had the chance to temper their divine body on the Divine Punishment Star. If that ever happens, as long as he doesn’t want my throne, I can grant him anything.”

“Your Majesty has spoken, and this concubine will remember your words!” Ning Qingxuan slightly nodded and didn’t say anything more.

“What if he can’t do it?” Liang Zhihuan asked.

“You’re the emperor, what you say is what happens.”

The conversation between the two was transmitted secretly, so the civil and military officials below could not hear anything. However, the fact that Ning Qingxuan could speak like this proved that Lin Zhen was important to her.

Liang Zhihuan snorted coldly and didn’t continue to speak. In his heart, he thought that even if Ning Qingxuan and Lin Zhen had feelings for each other, it was nothing concrete. As long as Lin Zhen failed on the Divine Punishment Star, Ning Qingxuan would be disappointed in him. At that time, he would get her body, and she would lean towards him sooner or later.

For the sake of Ning Qingxuan, he could temporarily endure all of this.

As for Lin Zhen’s ranking, he was not worried at all. A Level Eight Domain King would probably not even last half the time before being eliminated!

Moreover, Liang Zhihuan had another trump card. Lin Zhen was in the Eastern Continent’s 68th battle zone, where there were also seven other Nan Liang martial artists, including a seeded player, his chief guard, known as Feng Dao’s Shi Xiaomao.

“I’ve already informed Shi Xiaomao about Lin Zhen. I’m sure he won’t let me down. As for Lin Zhen’s final ranking, he might not even make it through the time when the border opens…”

**********

The battles on the Divine Punishment Star had already been going on for more than twenty days.

During these twenty days, the people from the Original World witnessed the talents of individuals from various countries.

Many seeded players undoubtedly shined brilliantly, but there were still many dark horses emerging, dominating in various battle zones. Almost every day, there were news of seeded players being defeated.

At the very beginning, the competition was the most intense, and that was when the most eliminations occurred.

In order to occupy a good position in the city, martial artists fought each other and eliminated more than a billion people within the first day.

After twenty consecutive days, half of the hundreds of billions of participants had already been eliminated!

During this lengthy battle, the situation in each battle zone had relatively stabilized, and the number of undead creatures was gradually decreasing.

Each region had many legends about powerful warriors. In every city street, there were recognized strong individuals ruling, and in order for these martial artists to survive, they allied with each other, formed alliances, hunted down enemies, and engaged in endless conspiracies and killings.

Undead creatures would also occasionally launch counterattacks against the martial artists. A series of spectacular dramas were continually being staged, which greatly entertained the people of the Original World.

However, at this point, the pace of elimination had slowed down and entered a stable period.

Those with weaker strength had mostly been eliminated in the earlier stages. Now, this was the real stage for the talented individuals to shine.

The previous rankings changed constantly like a carousel, and no one could truly dominate the others.

However, at this point, all of the martial artists entering the Original World had earned some points one way or another, except for Lin Zhen from Nan Liang Empire, who was also the Great Elder of the Alchemist Guild, who still had a big zero!

This matter became the object of many people’s ridicule.

In the eyes of others, the only explanation for Lin Zhen’s zero points was that he was hiding and not daring to participate in the battles.

Although he had defeated someone, maybe he was injured and didn’t dare to come out again. Such a coward would never make a name for himself on the Divine Punishment Star.

*********

In an abandoned mansion, Lin Zhen held a row of potion bottles in his hand.

These potions had been refined by Lin Zhen during this period, and it was his second time to absorb them.

The last absorption was twenty days ago, and Lin Zhen’s Divine Infant had advanced from the Late Bronze Stage to the Silver Middle Stage.

This time, after absorption, he could at least reach the Silver peak! Even the Golden Stage!

Lin Zhen opened his mouth, and a black hole appeared in his throat, looking rather horrifying.

He gently inhaled towards the row of potion bottles, and all the potions were instantly devoured by him.

“Hiss~!”

As the massive potion power entered his Spiritual Consciousness Sea, Lin Zhen gasped heavily!

In the core of the Spiritual Consciousness Sea, the half bronze-colored and half silver-colored Divine Infant began to change!

After being infused with potion power, the bronze color began to rapidly fade, and large areas of skin began to undergo silverization.

If this were someone else, even if they had the spiritual power potion, they would not be able to advance their spiritual power so quickly. Only Lin Zhen’s Black Hole Devour was the fastest way to advance.

From the Silver Middle Stage, he rushed all the way to the Silver Late Stage, and then to the Silver peak!

At the end, the Divine Infant’s body was covered with silver, and then a bit of golden light appeared in the center of his brow!

This absorption not only helped Lin Zhen break through the Silver Late Stage but also reached the Golden Early Stage!

But now, the power of the potion was still not exhausted. It continued to help him breakthrough!

Eventually, Lin Zhen’s spiritual power stabilized at twenty percent golden!

The hands and feet of his Divine Infant had turned into a dazzling golden color.

“Whew! This is what a Spiritual Mind Master is like. My current spiritual power must have surpassed most of the World Kings, and I have made a place for myself in this Divine Punishment Star.”

“The essence of fighting in Divine Punishment Star has returned to its original state when everyone was a War General or a War God. The hundredfold Star Power suppression coupled with the tremendous gravity here makes it impossible for everyone to display their real strength. Even flying is not possible here. Only those with extremely powerful spiritual power can control objects and proceed at low altitude. There is not much difference from my time on Earth.”

“Now that I have this powerful spiritual power, I might as well refine my Seven Stars Knife again. This is the weapon of a Spiritual Mind Master, and I can’t always rely on the Divine Infant.”

Lin Zhen’s Seven Stars Knife, Lightning Wings, and Light Annihilation were of little use due to their low levels, except for the Lightning Wings, which still had some usefulness.

Lin Zhen had no way to refine the Light Annihilation for the time being, but the Seven Stars Knife was different.

Inside Lin Zhen’s Dark Star World, there was a small tree and a small hill nurturing it.

Spatial turbulence surrounded the edges of the hill, which Lin Zhen had brought along when he collected it. After years in the spatial turbulence, the small hill had become one with it, and it couldn’t even land completely in the Dark Star Space.

Left with no choice, Lin Zhen suspended the hill above a basin and formed a Suspended Island.

This spatial turbulence was even purer than the energy elements Lin Zhen himself possessed.

When Lin Zhen initially refined the Seven Stars Knife, his technique wasn’t very skilled, so the knife was only an Artifact level weapon. This time, he would modify the Seven Stars Knife, infusing it with the chaotic energy from the spatial turbulence and merging it with the power of space!

Lin Zhen had several furnaces, including not only the Pill Furnace but also the furnace used by the Star Shift Masters.

Taking out this furnace, Lin Zhen began to refine the Seven Stars Knife again.

First, he removed the energy from the Seven Stars Knife, turning it back into an attributeless Meteorite Iron. Then, Lin Zhen began to absorb energy from the spatial turbulence!

This process was not simple, and Lin Zhen estimated that it would take him about three days to complete!

However, once he had refined the knife, it would be time for him to leave seclusion!

*********

In the Eastern Continent 68th city, also known as the only city in the Sixty-Eighth Battle Zone.

A strong wind blew through the ruined streets, filling the air with the smell of blood. Walking corpses roamed the streets, moving with a twisted gait.

These walking corpses were the lowest level of undead creatures on this planet, the easiest to kill, and the best source of Points.

However, after the initial battles, these low-level walking corpses have become quite rare, with only a few remaining high-level undead creatures.

A Martial Artist hidden in the shadows saw these walking corpses and suddenly rushed out from the dark.

With the longsword in his hand flashing like lightning, he aimed to take down the few points!

At this moment, another Martial Artist descended from a high-rise building by the side of the road!

He wielded a five-meter-long guandao, spinning it like a windmill, before smashing it down like a cannonball!

“Not good! These walking corpses are bait!”

The swordsman realized that he was in trouble but couldn’t escape in time. The guandao-wielding Martial Artist charged forward, and the bright blade light enveloped him like a sky-covered net. If not for the protection of the divine green light, he would have been torn to pieces by now.

The swordsman was declared dead and was eliminated from the competition while wrapped in the green light, feeling unwilling.

“Feng Dao Shi Xiaomao, you son of a bitch!” The swordsman roared and then vanished.

“Humph! Nothing but a trash that can only talk!” The man with the guandao stood upright. He was the number one expert of Canglan Street, Feng Dao Shi Xiaomao!
