Chapter 398 - 398: Starburst Hypothesis



Seeing the three gold stars on Diana, Xin Ou and Tu Ya exchanged a glance, both feeling shocked.

They didn’t expect that this Imperial Countess was also an Asura Warrior, and even reached the level of Golden Three-stars, which was quite strong.

“Now the only person on Earth who can be called a hindrance is Lin Zhen.”

Diana looked at Xin Ou and Tu Ya: “I have a feeling that Lin Zhen and his pirates will come to cause trouble when I am looking for the treasure of the Laya Star master, so Lin Zhen must be eliminated.”

Xin Ou said, “Then Countess Diana can drive Sky City to go and wipe out Lin Zhen and his people.”

“No, it’s not easy to deal with Lin Zhen’s Black Pearl. If he wants to run away sincerely, no one can stop him. So we can only assassinate him.”

“Then you can send military experts to do it.”

Diana shook her head: “That won’t work either. The military leaves too many after-effects and it will cause trouble if discovered. This matter can only be done by hiring a mercenary.”

“Hiring a mercenary? When will that happen on Earth?”

“Earth is more than 30,000 light-years away from the Jade Star. An ordinary person would be too late to get there, but I know that there is a wormhole 2.8 light-years away from here, which connects to the Demon Moon Star in Taurus, and the Demon Moon Star is also connected to the Jade Star by a wormhole. Otherwise, how could our fleet arrive within three years.”

“But even so, there is still a distance of nearly three light-years?”

“The person I’m looking for can travel through parallel universes. With the travel time combined, ten days will be enough!”

“If space mercenaries come through the parallel universe, they must have the speed of light ships, which consumes a lot of energy, and the cost of hiring must be not small.” Xin Ou and Tu Ya asked.

“Of course it’s expensive. It costs roughly between one million and ten million for a Satellite Stage mercenary, one million to one hundred million for a Planet Stage mercenary, and one hundred million to one billion for a Constant Star Stage mercenary.”

“It’s not that expensive!” Xin Ou and his companions said.

“I’m talking about Sanjiang coins!”

The two were suddenly speechless, as the ratio between Sanjiang coins and Tianhe coins was one to one thousand, which was quite expensive.

“So I’m also worried about what kind of person to hire. I can’t afford too expensive ones. If the value of the Laya Star master’s treasure is not high, I’m finished.”

Diana herself is an Asura Warrior mercenary. She can log in to a special website specifically for receiving mercenary missions. After a while, her eyes suddenly lit up: “It’s him!”

“Planet Level 7, Gold Level Four-star Asura Warrior, appearance fee 30 million, can pay half of the deposit first, and pay the other half after the task is completed.”

“A Planet Level 7 who reaches Gold Level Four-star, this guy is even stronger than me. First payment is 15 billion, this price is still acceptable to me.”

Diana immediately logged into the Dimensional Universe and established contact with the other party.

Pacific Ocean, the ruins of the Guam military base.

In the Gregorian calendar era, it was once the base of the most powerful country, the United States, but soon after the God Transformation Day, it quickly fell.

Surrounded by endless seas, there is no natural barrier to defend and no way to retreat, making it an unsuitable place for human survival.

Lin Zhen’s clone was there, standing on the edge of the coast, with dark clouds covering the sky, and a storm was about to come.

Against the violently crashing waves, with the top of the waves rising more than ten meters high, it would scare anyone of little courage.

With the Cliff Corner Spear in hand, Lin Zhen plunged into the waves, the fierce spear aura piercing the water and the released energy forming a cylinder several meters wide!

Boom rumble~!!!

As his body flew along the surface of the sea, he suddenly stood on the sea’s surface, swinging his Cliff Corner Spear to create a wall of spears.

Immovable like a mountain!

One wave after another was blocked by Lin Zhen’s immovable-like-a-mountain defense, forming a width of a hundred meters. The water formed a huge wall, increasingly accumulating higher until it reached a hundred meters high!

Feeling the increasingly heavy pressure on his hands, Lin Zhen released the energy from his Dantian, and shouted: “Open!”

The seawater was blasted away by the powerful energy, forming a channel several kilometers long. The waves flowed around him, leaving not a drop of water on Lin Zhen’s body.

“Clap clap clap!”

The sound of applauding came from behind; Qing Xu, An Bihuai, and Chen Fenglie walked up together.

“Brother Lin, congratulations! Congratulations on finally mastering Sea Treading and improving your strength once again.”

The speaker is Chen Fenglie, who has the best relationship with Lin Zhen.

“Don’t make fun of me, Brother Chen. My strength is nothing compared to your Sword Domain.”

An Bihuai also came over: “Yeah, Chen Fenglie is indeed a freak. He managed to master the domain during the Comet Stage. Now that he’s in the Satellite Stage, neither I nor Qing Xu are his opponents. Lin Zhen, don’t feel bad about losing to him.”

The four of them had been practicing here for two days. Besides practicing the Sea Treading Skill, Lin Zhen and his friends often sparred with each other.

Chen Fenglie and the others were in the Satellite Stage, while Lin Zhen’s clone was at Comet Level 9.

Without resorting to desperate moves, Lin Zhen could fight against An Bihuai and Qing Xu but not Chen Fenglie’s Sword Domain.

Under the suppression of the opponent’s domain, Chen’s sword Qi’s destructive power doubled, and it also suppressed the star power of the opponent, preventing them from fully exerting their strength.

Even though Lin Zhen had now learned the Sea Treading Skill, he was still not confident that he could beat Chen Fenglie in a normal fight.

“In my opinion, the Heavenly Star List must be reshuffled. Yan Qiyue is still first, while Chen Fenglie will likely be in second place. Lin Zhen, I think you can rank third,” Qing Xu commented.

Although Lin Zhen was confident that he could win against Chen Fenglie in a life-and-death struggle, not every fight could be that intense. He needed to have absolute strength.

Chen Fenglie humbly said at that time: “The power of the domain is not necessarily invincible. Just like in the fight against Yan Huang, his attack from outside the sky shattered my domain. At that time, I thought that instead of trying to comprehend the domain, I should first learn how to break others’ domains.”

Qing Xu sneered, “It’s easy for you to say. How can our attacks compete with the main cannon of a spaceship? What kind of attack can break the domain? Star Explosion? You would need to see the process of a star exploding to comprehend it.”

“Alright, let’s not discuss this for now. Lin Zhen successfully mastered Sea Treading today. Let’s rest a bit and have a drink to celebrate tonight. I’ll go underwater to catch a couple of Mutated Golden Spearfishes. We’ll have grilled fish tonight.”

An Bihuai went off to prepare, and Chen Fenglie and the others also headed into the water to catch fish.

Lin Zhen didn’t move. He just stood there with the words of Chen Fenglie and Qing Xu echoing in his mind.

“To comprehend the domain, you should first learn how to break others’ domains…!”

“What kind of attack can break the domain? Star Explosion? You would need to see the process of a star exploding to comprehend it….”

“I should take this path. The understanding of domains is not that simple, but destruction is always easier than construction. I can start by trying to break others’ domains and create a new powerful attack.”

“Other people can never see the process of a star exploding, but I have. I’ve seen the complete scene of a planet from birth to explosion. I just never thought of applying it to my moves.”

Lin Zhen stood in the seawater with his eyes closed, as if watching a movie of everything he had seen from the Time Stone playing in his mind.

The birth, growth, evolution, aging, and destruction of the stars kept flashing before his eyes.

Lin Zhen’s hands moved along with the scenes, and streaks of star power leaked out, drawing mysterious trajectories in the air.

“Stars have life spans, and I possess all the necessary elemental energy required for a star. I just need to grasp the critical points of each era and accelerate the time to complete the process quickly. In theory, I can simulate the process of a star exploding…”

“Although it’s a simulated star explosion and not as powerful as a real one, if successful, its core power should be comparable to that of a small nuclear bomb. But this process is really complicated.”

“From Star Core Period to Dark Ancient Era is one phase, then to Mesozoic Era… and then Paleozoic Era, Neozoic Era… and finally becoming a White Dwarf Star, before it explodes, there are about ten phases in total…”

“For each phase, at the beginning, it takes at least ten seconds to complete. In the past few days, my time acceleration has improved. I can reach a five-fold acceleration within a small space, but it’s still far from enough. It takes me at least twenty seconds to simulate a star now, which is useless in battle.”

“But I have to take one step at a time. I need time… and a better cultivation environment.”

At this moment, Chris appeared: “Master, if you need a better cultivation environment, you can go to the training field in the Dimensional Universe. As long as you’re willing to spend money, they can simulate any environment for you.”

“Alright, let’s go to the Dimensional Universe immediately. As long as my strength can improve, it’s worth spending any amount of money.”

With a thought, Lin Zhen entered the Dimensional Universe space.

As Lin Zhen entered, a figure flashed above the clouds. The archangel Jason was guarding there, protecting Lin Zhen from any danger.

A little later, the waves on the sea surface churned, and Chen Fenglie and the others emerged.

“Lin Zhen, come have some grilled fish.”

Chen Fenglie called out to Lin Zhen. Seeing that he wasn’t moving, Chen sighed, “He went into the Dimensional Universe. He’s probably practicing again. This guy is really pushing himself too hard.”

An Bihuai thought for a moment, “Brother Chen, I think it might not be long before we’re all left behind by Lin Zhen.”

Chen Fenglie shook his head, “It’s not that it won’t be long, but rather, we’ve already been left behind. Although I have a domain, I can’t see through Lin Zhen’s true combat power…”
