Chapter 427: 427: New Phenomena on Earth

Of course, Zi Qianxia only committed to ensuring Lin Zhen’s security, she wouldn’t intervene in other matters.

The Black Wing Clan had spatial talents, just like Lin Zhen’s Foldable Space, allowing them to step into the space at any time to avoid danger, leaving no trace of their comings and goings.

When Lin Zhen returned to the light-speed Spaceship with Zi Qianxia and the others, as well as all the slaves he had acquired, Ronnie and the others were completely dumbfounded.

Especially when Zi Qianxia glanced at these people and sneered, “Contemptuous pirates,” the pirates became so terrified that they didn’t dare to breathe.

Ronnie couldn’t help thinking that Lin Zhen was playing with fire. He was actually buying slaves who were in their Black Hole Period. Once this woman broke through, everyone combined would not be enough for her to kill.

Did the boss think this woman was beautiful and wanted to have his fun with her first?

After purchasing the slaves, Lin Zhen stayed in Sanjiang Star Domain Federation for another two days, buying a considerable amount of supplies.

The first purchase was chips. As a lord now, he could distribute chips without limit, but he needed to possess a substantial number of these chips to give them out. He made a one-time purchase of hundreds of billions of them.

Besides the chips, he also purchased a large passenger spaceship. Lin Zhen planned to implement navigation within his territory, and at least on Earth, he needed to take responsibility for the spaceships.

Additionally, he bought jade marrow stones specifically for cultivation. These weren’t too costly, priced at 5,300 Sanjiang coins per gram. These stones could give ordinary people the chance to become Martial Artists, just like vitality potions on Earth.

When converted to Earth’s currency, one gram of jade marrow was worth 50 billion, quite an extravagant price.

However, the effects were pretty impressive. One gram was sufficient for an average person, three grams were plenty. Lin Zhen wanted to bring these back to turn more people into Martial Artists, ideally the entire population.

Moreover, he bought energy blocks. Spaceships needed an enormous amount of energy, so he could never have too many energy blocks. Lin Zhen made a one-time purchase of energy blocks worth 50 billion Sanjiang coins.

Spending money in such large amounts, Lin Zhen had to deposit another 1.5 billion Kirin Coins into his card to function properly.

After three more days, Lin Zhen finally embarked on his journey home with everyone.

Over two hours later, upon reaching Earth, Lin Zhen started to arrange all the planetary defense systems.

The Nine Major Planets of the Solar System each were equipped with a Fortress Satellite.

A Fortress Satellite was almost like a small planet in itself, moving slowly in high orbit, densely packed with gun ports, an absolutely solid fortress.

More so, for his hometown Earth, Lin Zhen arranged for three Fortress Satellites.

Martial Artists at the Constant Star Stage were responsible for propelling the satellites forward, gradually bringing them into orbit.

Then the orbital cannons, laser-guided missiles were all in place.

Lin Zhen installed the interstellar radar and parallel universe monitors in Ice City Base City, his own hometown.

These devices didn’t require human supervision, just linking them to an intelligent life form was enough. This way, he would get a notification as soon as anything unusual occurred.

Those ten sub-light speed spaceships were left in the hands of his guards, who would serve as Earth’s sentinels.

When Lin Zhen returned home, his parents and relatives were already back in Ice City Base City.

Now, Lin Zhen’s home was like an individual city, connected to Ice City Base City.

This city was Lin Zhen’s war trophy – Sky City!

It was Lin Zhen’s idea to have Sky City based here. It enabled him to gather all the people he cared about and considered important, as the Sky City itself was a powerful war fortress, providing maximum security to his family.

Sky City was immensely vast, and when Lin Zhen returned, many people were in the process of moving in.

The upper echelons of various countries had now merged, forming a unified office, handling all matters on Earth.

This office was directly accountable to Lin Zhen. During the days he was away, his clone remained here to handle the affairs.

Returning here, while walking on the streets of Sky City, Lin Zhen could see bustling activity everywhere.

Lin Zhen wore his metallic mask to avoid unnecessary attention, and Zi Qianxia retracted her wings, turning into an adorable young girl following closely behind Lin Zhen.

“Your spaceship city is tolerable, in case of real danger, it can choose to fly away immediately, although the speed is a bit slow.”

In fact, the maximum speed of Sky City was not slow, it could reach hundred times the speed of sound. But this speed seemed slow against future trends. Lin Zhen already ordered a new propulsion system from the Dimensional Universe, planning to refit Sky City into a sub-light speed Spaceship.

“How does it compare to your hometown?”

“My home is way more beautiful than here, and we don’t have so many Mutated Beasts roaming about like your planets. It’s not safe even to step out.”

Lin Zhen nodded, Earth was indeed not considered beautiful now, mainly due to the widespread presence of Mutated Beasts still not eradicated.

Given that he had brought back so many experts, for those Martial Artists at the Planet Stage or Constant Star Stage, eliminating Earth’s Mutated Beasts was not a difficult task. However, Lin Zhen had no intention of doing so.

These mutated beasts should be preserved, they might still serve a purpose.

After going all the way to the center of Sky City, where the lord’s mansion is located, Lin Zhen’s original body and his clone quietly swapped places.

What Lin Zhen now lacks is the realm of advancement, his original body must grasp every moment for cultivation.

Meanwhile, his clone continues to work with Zi Qianxia, issuing various orders.

Firstly, Lin Zhen officially announces to the world that chip distribution to the people will begin.

Verification of citizen identities has been ongoing. If they are people of Earth with no history of serious crime and have good performance, they will be granted citizen status.

Those who had previously resisted Lin Zhen and have a bad record will be given the status of the poor.

As for those with egregious crimes, Lin Zhen won’t hold back and will hand them all over to the current office for trial. Those who should be killed will be killed.

The code of law in the Tianhe Empire is quite complete and the laws are sound. Although this task has a large workload, it’s not difficult to handle.

After the identity chips came back, Lin Zhen also endowed some with the title of knight. These people can distribute chips on behalf of Lin Zhen.

Of course, the people who can be granted the title of knight are those Lin Zhen knows well and trusts.

Once they have the chip, they can enter the Dimensional Universe, instantly captivated by the immense charm of the dimensional cosmos.

Many people haven’t even explored all the scenery within their own planet in their entire lives. In the Dimensional Universe, they perceive a greater meaningfulness of life.

Everyone is aspiring to be a martial artist, to possess longer lives, so Lin Zhen begins to distribute jade marrow once more.

As soon as someone has reached the threshold of being a warrior, they will immediately be given jade marrow. This helps them in their cultivation, a gram of jade marrow is enough for an average person to easily become a third-level warrior.

Continuous actions cause people on Earth to cheer with excitement, their admiration for Lin Zhen is boundless.

Being able to cultivate, having more extended lives, enjoying a brand new world, people suddenly feel future full of hope.

During this process, there were some who proposed that the lord should wipe out the mutated beasts on the planet, but Lin Zhen refused.

These mutated beasts are the best sparring partners for Earth’s people, and can help them grow quickly. Otherwise, cultivating eternally in a hothouse environment, even those with genius talent would be buried.

Of course, Lin Zhen did not just stand by and do nothing. For example, in the training areas for warrior-level individuals, Lin Zhen would arrange for people to clean or transfer out advanced and intermediate mutated beasts, preventing any monster beyond the warrior’s strength from causing significant casualties.

Of course, some people might still get injured or even die, but compared to before, the numbers would be much lower. Everyone’s AI life form will help analyze where they should practice and where they should not go due to danger.

As for Lin Zhen’s arrangements, the people of Earth also gave their full support. Over the years, Earth’s people are no longer extremely fearful of mutated beasts, they know what to do.

For a while, the entire planet was engrossed in a cultivation craze.

As time moved forward, three months passed, and all the orders gradually stabilized. The entire star system’s defense system was installed, and the whole Solar System became as solid as gold soup.

If fleets like Diana’s dared to come again, Lin Zhen assured they would not even be able to get close to Earth and would be completely wiped out.

People’s cultivation had also led to results, and now ninety percent of the people on the planet had become martial artists. The mainstream activity became forming teams to go out and hunt mutated beasts.

In such a nourishing cultivation environment, the number of advanced martial artists gradually increased.

In these three months, hundreds of thousands of people became war generals, nearly fifty thousand became war gods, and several Star Realm Experts were also born.

This prompted someone to propose the opening of interstellar routes. Earth needed development and trade, so it ought to extend outwards.

Lin Zhen also paid close attention to this matter and started contacting other life planets within his territory.

During the last taxation, eight life planets paid their dues. But when Lin Zhen raised the issue of communication between planets this time, not a single planet responded!

In their eyes, the lord sure had no ability to reach other planets. A lord who can’t even make it to them, isn’t worth caring about.

Several planet’s martial artists even mocked Lin Zhen continuously, saying that he was a “snail” lord.

Even many people posted challenges to Lin Zhen on the planetary forum! Notably, the planets of Blu Bay Star, Double Moon Star, and Blue Sea Star had the most challengers.

In fact, Lin Zhen had received quite a few challenges during this period and the challengers had strong abilities. The weakest was at least at the level of Venus Asura, and more were Red Star Shura. There were even rumors of an Asura King on Blue Bay Star wishing to challenge Lin Zhen.

But he did not accept any of the challenges, which made the people on other life planets within his territory grow even more arrogant.

Not that Lin Zhen wanted to let these people swagger around, it was just that his cultivation practice had reached a critical point.

He had cultivated to the threshold of entering the Meteor Stage, and one more step forward, would let him cross a large realm.

Once he arrived at the Meteor Stage, he would send a response and retaliate against all those who dared to look down on him, to thoroughly control his territory!
