Chapter 478: Chapter 478: Dark Star Promotes, Strength Skyrockets!
Translator: 549690339
Inside the Dark Star, Lin Zhen had already chosen the spot for transplantation.
The tectonic movements within the Dark Star have long ended, forming three large landmasses. He chose a spot right in the center of the largest one.
There’s a small basin here, with water and soil resources ideal for transplantation.
After the Perpetual Crystal Spaceship entered the Dark Star, it immediately placed the Star Fruit Tree in the basin.
The small robots that Lin Zhen brought in also began cultivating the soil after their arrival.
The Cloud-climbing Vine is entwined around the Star Fruit Tree, so it was relocated alongside the tree.
Within the Dark Star World, Lin Zhen was the master. He could clearly understand and observe everything as if it were his own body.
When the Star Fruit Tree and the Cloud-climbing Vine both took root successfully within the Dark Star, something miraculous happened!
A powerful life force began to spread throughout the Dark Star World, causing the entire space to tremble!
“This is…. going to upgrade~!”
This was an unusual force. Even though life forms had already been able to enter the Dark Star before (like the dwarf Ni Ke who Lin Zhen had put in there), those were still external life forms. The Dark Star itself initially did not possess medium conditions for breeding life.
But now it was different. With the injection of the potent life force from the Star Fruit Tree and the Cloud-climbing Vine, everything in the Dark Star World began to change subtly.
Water was no longer stagnant, and the air began to warm up.
Sunlight, air, water, soil- the basic conditions for sustaining life -had finally come alive with the arrival of these two giant plants!
Even the Dark Star Ring around the Dark Star seemed more animated, slowly orbiting around the Dark Star.
The Dark Star itself was also moving along a mystical orbit within space, and the man-made sun Lin Zhen had created was already firmly established in the sky.
The place started resembling Earth, complete with shifting seasons.
“Evident Universe! So it has finally entered the Evident Universe!”
When a powerful Star Power erupted from the depths of the Dark Star Space, Lin Zhen knew that the transplantation work he had undertaken had proved unexpectedly effective.
Since the Dark Star was at the peak of the Primordial Era, this time it had finally broken through the barrier to enter the Evident Universe~!
The fresh, potent Star Power that surged through made Lin Zhen’s power level hit a new high!
The Evident Universe of the Dark Star corresponded to the Martial Artist’s Satellite Stage.
But under the same conditions, the Star Power strength of the Dark Star surpassed that within a Martial Artist’s Dantian since this was the real world, with all the more powerful Star Power!
Moreover, under the thrust of two potent life forces—the Star Fruit Tree and the Cloud-climbing Vine—Lin Zhen’s progress in the Evident Universe was swift. Lin Zhen estimated that once the Dark Star had fully adapted to these two life forces, it could reach the middle of the Evident Universe at the very least!
“Truly powerful forces. With the Star Power of the Evident Universe and my Planet Eighth Level Peak power, I can feel my strength going up a notch. Although it’s not enough to combat the Star System Stage, I almost have an overwhelming advantage below the Star System Stage.”
After finishing the transplant, Lin Zhen chose to meditate and train in space, getting used to his new power.
Ten days.
This time Lin Zhen’s training lasted a full ten days. During these ten days, he collected Planet Crystals from the Star Fruit Tree, pushing his realm to the Planet Ninth Level Peak!
He was now just a step away from the Constant Star Stage.
After the Star Fruit Tree transplantation, the incubation speed of the Star Crystals accelerated even more. In two more months, the quantity of Constant Star Crystals would be sufficient to let Lin Zhen advance to the Constant Star Stage.
“Now that the Dark Star has been upgraded and my power has gone up a notch again, although I am still no match for the Star System Stage, I can’t run away. I need to know how big the gap is between me and the Star System Stage fighters. Only after knowing that can I have a goal and proceed toward that goal.”
Lin Zhen returned home. Now that he had the Star Fruit Tree, his parents and wife could all have free Star Crystals.
Lin Liye and Li Qin currently only needed Star Core Crystals, while An Ning and Su Mingyue needed Comet Crystals. There were many of these inside the Star Fruit Tree.
The sisters An Qier and Ling’er needed Satellite Crystals. As these were all people Lin Zhen trusted, he could give some to them to absorb, allowing them to increase their levels faster.
Of course, the family members received the most.
After receiving the Star Crystals, the cultivation speed of the family members significantly increased, and Lin Zhen also began his next plan.
To enter the Simulated Combat Area again!
“Chris, can the Simulated Combat Area simulate an opponent of Star System Stage?”
“Yes, master. As long as you are willing to pay enough money, combatants of even the Star Realm Stage—World King level—can be simulated. However, I don’t recommend you do that, as such comparisons are meaningless and would only be a waste of money.”
“Of course, I won’t recklessly challenge the World King right now. The opponent I need to face now is at the Star System Stage, so I can only simulate that level.”
“Okay. To simulate a Star System Stage expert, it charges per minute. From Star System Level 1 to 1 million Sanjiang Coins per minute, Level 2 is 2 million, Level 3 is 3 million, and Level 4 is 10 million, as Level 4 belongs to the Star System Middle Stage.”
“This price isn’t low, but it’s acceptable for me. Start by simulating one minute, Star System Level 1 will do.”
“Received. Please prepare yourself. Simulation begins…”
Lin Zhen entered the Simulated Combat Area, which was a desert of yellow sand.
A figure emerged in the space ahead.
This person’s features were blurred, but the powerful force radiated from his body made Lin Zhen feel tremendously startled.
When he burst out of the World Stone, Lin Zhen had faced Tianci. The power Tianci exhibited was unforgettable, but it was incomparable to the person before his eyes.
After all, Tianci had just broken through and was still unstable, while the person in front of him was a genuine Strong One of the Star System Stage.
As soon as this figure appeared, they swung their longsword, and a world-shattering aura erupted. The sword light flickered and instantly reached in front of Lin Zhen!
“Block it~!”
The Star Power of the Planet Pop’s Peak, coupled with the Dark Star Power of the Evident Universe, burst out simultaneously. He held the Yin-Yang Spear horizontally to resist this unprecedented attack~!
Boom~~!!
At that moment, Lin Zhen felt as if a mountain was crashing down on him. The opponent’s power was almost unstoppable. He could no longer tell whether he was in a virtual environment or the real world. For the sake of survival, his potential was also unleashed at this moment!
His body’s skeletal structure was severely tested at this moment, two forces formed a brief stalemate above Lin Zhen’s head~!
Three seconds~!
Five seconds~!!
After a full seven seconds, the sword light fell, and Lin Zhen was killed in one stroke!
When his consciousness returned to the Dimensional Universe space, Lin Zhen stood there in a daze for a long time, completely motionless.
“Master, what are you doing?” Chris urged him repeatedly.
A few minutes later, Lin Zhen let out a long sigh, a look of joy on his face.
“Star System Level 1, truly powerful enough, but… I am not without resistance!”
The energy in Lin Zhen’s Dantian had been compressed tenfold, ten times stronger than the average person. Coupled with the similarly formidable Dark Star Power, although he was not yet ready to compare with the Star System Stage, he was not utterly defenseless!
There is a gap, but it’s not as vast as heaven and earth!
With this knowledge, Lin Zhen’s initial worries about the future were instantly swept away.
He still has more than four months before Xilanke arrives. Lin Zhen still has a chance.
Remembering his confrontation with the Star System Stage just now, Lin Zhen had felt the intensity of the opponent’s Star Power. Next, he aimed to last longer in the virtual field to gain experience in fighting against the Star System Stage.
Although he hadn’t lasted a minute just now, he still spent a million Sanjiang coins.
Lin Zhen activated the one-minute option again and re-entered the virtual field.
The same arena and the same person, the same irresistible blow.
However, Lin Zhen was prepared and dodged as soon as he entered.
Having anticipated it, Lin Zhen dodged the blow successfully!
After dodging the blow, Lin Zhen immediately rushed towards his opponent, hoping to counterattack, but the second strike came thundering down as he advanced!
After a short stand-off, Lin Zhen was again eliminated. This time it lasted for eight seconds.
“The attack speed is so fast. I don’t even have time to teleport. This is the attack speed of the Star System Stage Powerhouse? It’s incomparable to the Constant Star Stage and Black Hole Period.”
Learning from his experience, Lin Zhen entered the virtual field for the third time.
This time, Lin Zhen still couldn’t dodge the second blow, but with preparation, the initial fear of the Star System Stage was completely gone. He lasted for ten seconds in the calmness.
The fourth time, he still lasted for ten seconds.
The fifth time, due to a minor miscalculation, he was eliminated in just four seconds.
The sixth time… the seventh time….
On the eighteenth attempt, Lin Zhen lasted for fifteen seconds. But he still had no chance to attack the opponent, let alone a chance for a mental shock.
A whole day passed, and Lin Zhen spent nearly 1 billion Sanjiang coins to keep fighting in the mock-up arena. The best time being twenty-two seconds. Although he still had no chance to counterattack, it was already significant progress.
Lin Zhen was not discouraged at all and was extremely delighted. Only rich combat experience can lead to faster progress.
On the second day, Lin Zhen lasted twenty-five seconds!
On the third day, he successfully crossed the thirty-second mark.
On the tenth day, Lin Zhen made a historical breakthrough, lasting for forty seconds, and even launched a shot in the fight – a shot that forced the Star System Stage powerhouse to dodge!
“What I am lacking now is experience. Every Star System powerhouse has been forged by countless years and countless battles. As for Star Power, although the gap is significant, I still have the opportunity to improve.”
“As for the accumulation of experience, few people would spend billions a day to play in the virtual field like I do. This is my advantage.”
After successfully counterattacking at the Star System Stage, Lin Zhen’s confidence skyrocketed. He knew that with the right tactics, the Star System Stage was not unbeatable!
