Chapter 494: Chapter 494: The Power of 10 Billion
After hearing Tianci’s instructions, his subordinate said, “Young Master, if we put out this bounty, Lin Zhen might see it and be on his guard.”
“It’s okay, I can add a block to the bounty post, as long as I add Lin Zhen’s Dimensional Universe number, he won’t be able to see it. This is something my mercenary friends taught me.”
“Then there’s no way he can escape, he’ll probably not even know how he died, haha!”
“Even if he finds out, what can he do? With 10 billion Cosmic Crystals, anyone could be tempted to kill him. He won’t be able to trust anyone, and anyone could stab him at any moment, whether it’s the Insect Clan or the Human Clan. Lin Zhen… It’ll be the biggest mistake of your life to offend me, Tianci!”
Lin Zhen originally thought that the waste disposal plant would be a smelly place, but it turned out to be different from what he expected.
Countless damaged spaceships were covered with moss, stacked up haphazardly. Some broken satellites, orbital guns, and even scrapped Fortress Satellites piled up like mountains.
In addition to these mechanical things, there were so many other objects.
Such as plants, broken meteorites, broken Star Artifacts, and Sacred Artifacts, among countless other messy things, covered the entire surface of the planet.
“This is the border of several Advanced Cosmic Nations, where countless star system’s garbage is dumped, forming a unique Garbage Star. Some resource planets are even completely buried by garbage.”
“I wonder where the Thunder Crystal Star the Insect Clan mentioned is. Let’s look for it.”
Spreading his Spiritual Power downward, Lin Zhen had a simple idea: as long as he used his Spiritual Power to penetrate the garbage, he would be able to see the planet below and determine if it was a resource planet.
His Spiritual Power descended 100 meters, 500 meters… 1,000 meters…!
“It’s still all garbage! My god, how many years has this garbage been accumulating? I can’t even see the bottom, and too many corroded metal scraps make it extremely difficult for my Spiritual Power to move forward. I can usually see up to 10,000 meters, but here I can’t even go down 1,000 meters.”
Lin Zhen tried several places in succession and all failed, so he had to give up this shortcut and return to the ground to start digging.
Using the Yin-Yang Spear as a shovel, Lin Zhen dug up a piece of metal from the ground. His power was immense and digging was effortless.
“An expired healing medicine, garbage.”
“Spoiled inferior wine, garbage.”
“A fragment of High Grade Star Device Armor, it’s useless to me now.”
“A woman’s bellyband… huh! People still use these things?”
“Hmm… what’s this?”
After digging several tens of meters, Lin Zhen found a rhomboid blue stone.
He held it in his hand and felt a hint of coldness.
When he used his Spiritual Power to cover it, Lin Zhen felt that this thing seemed to have an absorbing function. He tried it, a blue light entered his body, and his eyes seemed to change a bit.
“Ah! I get it, this is the Cold Stone the Insect Clan warrior mentioned, the essential item for going to the Suspended Island to view the stone tablet.”
Lin Zhen knew that everyone would eventually go to the Suspended Island, so this Cold Stone must be in great demand.
He didn’t think he was the only one who knew the secret of the Cold Stone. The Chaos Star River Battlefield had existed for so many years, and countless people had been here before. It would be impossible for those World King’s disciples not to know.
With a target in mind, Lin Zhen began to search diligently in the garbage piles.
“A bounty of 10 billion Cosmic Crystals to kill Lin Zhen, it seems this little Constant Star Period guy is not simple. But I’m taking this deal, the coordinates are quite close to me.”
“Coordinates 78263.1223339, isn’t that the garbage processing plant? Tianci is really daring, let’s go!””To kill Lin Zhen, the coordinates are 600 Star Power away from me. I wonder if I can catch up, but for the sake of 10 billion Cosmic Crystals, everything else must be put aside! Let’s go!”
“A Human Clan member is worth so much money, brothers, follow me! We won’t bother with others for now, killing Lin Zhen is the key.” A group of Insect Clan’s hornet warriors hurried towards the garbage processing plant.
Everyone who noticed Tianci’s message and was not too far from the garbage processing plant began to move at this moment.
Not everyone could easily own 10 billion Cosmic Crystals. Only Tianci, who had a huge harvest in the World Stone, could afford it.
Lin Zhen obtained nearly 50 billion in the World Stone, while Tianci led a large group of people to collect nearly 30 billion. To avenge his fallen avatar, he was willing to spend all his family’s fortune to get rid of Lin Zhen.
This was a fortune that could drive people mad, enough for them to betray their family and friends, let alone Lin Zhen, who looked weak. Although he had briefly been ranked first, nobody took him seriously.
Even the Insect Clan was on the move, as countless people came from all directions towards this starry sky.
While speeding forward, they all prayed that the others would be slower.
“Wrong, this planet is not a resource planet.”
Lin Zhen held a Cold Stone in his hand and roughly figured out what it was. It was the condensed essence of Crystal Stone gas and should be available in abundance on resource planets.
In this ordinary garbage field, it took him several hours to find just three Stones.
As far as the eye could see, there were other planets in the distant cosmic space. There were hundreds of asteroids in this garbage field alone.
“This place is too big, let’s take it one step at a time.”
Lin Zhen stood up, suddenly hearing a weak moan coming from the front, as if a woman had been injured.
Following the sound, he walked over to a bend of a spaceship, where a woman wearing Qing Luan Society clothing was tied up by a vine-like plant, with a huge open mouth at the top of the vine, seemingly about to devour this woman.
“Help me! There’s a man-eating vine here!”
The man-eating vine was similar to the man-eating flower, both being mutated plants, but such a huge man-eating vine was indeed rare, even capable of binding a female martial artist in the early stage of the Black Hole Period.
The woman’s face was delicate and charming, looking embarrassed but still maintaining her grace, her exquisite body wrapped in silken white clothes, appearing pitiful.
Lin Zhen walked over, coming to the woman’s side, “Do you need help?”
“Yes, please help me, the vine is trying to eat me!”
Her voice was sultry, making men involuntarily feel a desire to protect her.
Lin Zhen raised his hand, and the Golden Qi Seven Star Knife cut through the air a few times, severing the vine into several sections.
“Thank you, brother… Ah…!”
The woman seemed to have a numb leg, and her body suddenly fell forward, plunging directly into Lin Zhen’s arms.
Leaning her head on Lin Zhen’s shoulder, from an angle where Lin Zhen couldn’t see, a cold light flashed in the woman’s eyes.
An icy cold dagger silently appeared in her palm, stabbing straight towards Lin Zhen’s heart!
Crack~!!
A crisp sound of bone breaking rang out, and the woman suddenly felt her vision go black, pain in her neck, and with a scream, she fell down, head spinning.
“You… You can actually ignore my…!”
Lin Zhen looked down at the woman from a high position, his cold gaze fixed on her: “When a Black Hole Period expert can be caught by vines, do you think I’m that stupid? Or do you think you’re so pretty that you can easily hook men? Unfortunately, when I saw you were from the Qing Luan Society, I became more cautious of you, and your performance failed!”
With a flick of his finger, a ray of golden Qi shot through the woman’s forehead.
Just as Lin Zhen said, after witnessing Feng Qingluan’s vicious and ruthless style, he became cautious towards this gang, the woman’s charm was good, but it couldn’t deceive Lin Zhen.
Having just killed this woman, a small spaceship in the distance emitted a buzzing sound and quickly approached.
The spaceship landed, and a few people came down from it, one of which was Tony and his companions.
“Brother Lin Zhen, it’s really a coincidence, how come you’re here?”
“A true coincidence, I thought I had lost you guys.” Lin Zhen smiled, he didn’t want to be with Tony and the others, but he didn’t expect to meet them again.
“What’s the matter with this woman?”
“I don’t know what’s going on, she tried to ambush me here, but I killed her.”
Tony gave Lin Zhen a thumbs-up: “I knew you wouldn’t be in trouble so easily, back then, you single-handedly defeated three hundred of the Insect Clan, brother did you hide your strength?”
Lin Zhen laughed, “Who doesn’t have a hidden card, right?”
“That’s true. In our situation, we can’t get by without some bottom-of-the-box means.”
Tony agreed, and the others also casually chatted with Lin Zhen.
As they walked a few steps, Tony suddenly stopped and grabbed Lin Zhen’s arm: “Brother, be careful, someone’s coming!”
He skillfully grabbed Lin Zhen’s arm, seemingly unintentional, but preventing Lin Zhen from taking action.
Lin Zhen looked up as instructed, and suddenly there was a change behind him!
Three Constant Star Period martial artists pulled out their weapons harshly, and several light nets suddenly bound Lin Zhen’s hands and feet!
“What… Tony, what are you doing?” Lin Zhen struggled hard, but Tony just laughed coldly, holding on to Lin Zhen tightly.
“Hahaha~! What am I doing, Lin Zhen? Don’t struggle in vain, this light rope is made of fibers from a Giant Silkworm Star River Beast, and without Star System Stage strength, you can’t break free, and you can’t teleport either. You don’t need to know too much, now that you’re in the Chaotic Star River, you’re just a spare wheel. You’d better make some contribution to us brothers, and die a foolish ghost!”
As his words trailed off, Tony pulled out a sword with his other hand and swung it down!
Shuffling sounds~!
Continuous shrieks came from behind, and three Constant Star Period martial artists had already died!
Tony knew that something had changed, and without even looking back, he swung his sword harder.
“Bam~!”
Lin Zhen lifted his hand and grabbed Tony’s wrist directly.
“How could you break free from the light rope?”
“Don’t you know? That’s because I already have Star System Stage strength, Tony, die!”
Lin Zhen was extremely furious, he had once considered them friends, but didn’t expect these people to try to ambush him, so he showed no mercy.
Spiritual Demonic Shock~!
A merciless shock directly smashed Tony’s Spiritual Consciousness Sea to bits, making him experience what is called dying in fear!
The avatar behind him silently dragged all the corpses into the Dark Star Space as if they had never appeared.
“Chris, it seems something is wrong, what is going on?” After experiencing consecutive ambushes, Lin Zhen realized there was something wrong.
