Age of Evolution

If Lin Zhen remembered correctly, today is the first day the Space Ring is on the market, and there are some for sale at Huan Yu. The small Space Ring with three cubic meters is priced at two hundred million.

Although it’s just a small ring, it’s much larger than a backpack and more convenient to carry. After it went on sale, the first batch of buyers started a crazy buying frenzy. Almost everyone with some financial resources bought one.

However, the price of this ring will rise in a few days, and the second batch will be sold at five hundred million. It’s not good to stock up on these items as each martial artist is limited to buying one. Lin Zhen must buy one now.

The salesgirl handed Lin Zhen a Space Ring, a silver ring with a black stone embedded in it, which was a Void Stone, also a type of meteorite.

Lin Zhen paid two hundred million by swiping his card and put the Space Ring on his hand.

To open the ring, all you need to do is concentrate your spiritual power. All martial artists have some spiritual power, so everyone can use it.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Zhen’s eleven billion became nine billion, and he left Huan Yu Auction House.

After leaving, Lin Zhen cleaned himself up, washed and put on a new set of clean clothes before driving home.

When he reached Jiangbei District, Lin Zhen parked his car in the villa’s garage. As soon as he stepped into the house, he heard the sound of shuffling tiles.

There were people playing mahjong inside.

Mahjong was not only popular during the Common Era, but also during the God Transformation Calendar period. It’s even played by many people in the galaxy, considered one of Earth’s four great inventions brought to the stars.

After humans migrated to the galaxy, many proud accomplishments like the internet, weapons, and space travel became worthless in the interstellar era. Earthlings were essentially primitives compared to the highly developed cultivation and technology civilizations in the galaxy.

But Earth’s soccer, Hua Xia cuisine, mahjong, and “Fight the Landlord” thrived, earning a reputation as the four great inventions.

In his previous life, Lin Zhen had heard of a Comet Stage Warrior who won a starship battleship in a single mahjong game.

There was also a Constant Star Stage master who lost a resource-rich planet in one game of “Fight the Landlord” when he called the landlord and got hit by a quadruple bomb and a spring counterattack.

Walking into the living room of the villa, Lin Zhen saw his parents and two old neighbors. Seeing him, the two old neighbors stood up hesitantly, bowed slightly and greeted Lin Zhen.

“Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang, you’re here. Keep playing; don’t mind me,” Lin Zhen greeted them with a smile.

Lin Liye also waved his hand: “Let’s play, don’t mind this stinky kid. He’s never home after becoming a martial artist and always runs wild somewhere.”

Li Qin was more concerned about her son. Although Lin Zhen often called home when he was outside, she was still happy to see him return and immediately thought of preparing food for him.

“You guys play, Mom. I’ve already eaten. We’ll eat together later tonight.” “Will you be away for so long again this time?” Li Qin asked as she sat down.

“Not for now, I should be staying at Base City for some time.”

“Oh, good, go rest.”

The old people continued to play mahjong while Lin Zhen went to his room.

Looking back at his parents, who now had gray hair, Lin Zhen felt a little emotional.

He was on the path of cultivation. While Martial artists at the Warrior, War General, and War God Mortal Realm stages didn’t have to worry about their lifespan, once they reached the Star Realm, they would have a long life. If their family members couldn’t cultivate, they would pass away prematurely.

Lin Zhen didn’t want his parents to leave him, and the only way was for them to follow the path of cultivation.

However, his parents had long passed the best age for cultivation. The only way to facilitate their cultivation was to buy the Vitality Elixir from the European Union.

This elixir could enhance people’s physical functions, stimulate cellular potential, and give them a second chance for cultivation. It was the European Union’s leading technological achievement compared to other major countries.

However, the production of this elixir required the genes of SS-level mutated beasts as well as multiple S-level and A-level genes. The manufacturing cost was prohihitively expensive. and the price was enough to deter people-

The Capital Base City’s internet had Vitality Elixir for sale from the European Union. Each bottle cost a staggering two hundred billion!

If Lin Zhen wanted to buy two bottles of Vitality Elixir, he would need a total of 400 billion, which was undoubtedly an astronomical sum.

Even in his previous life when Lin Zhen had reached the Star Realm, he had never had this much money.

But this time, Lin Zhen had to give his parents another chance to cultivate, and he must have the forty billion.

Returning to his room, Lin Zhen turned on his computer.

As he logged onto the Martial Artist Forum, he thought that the first post he’d see would be about the Yi Lan tragedy, but it wasn’t.

The headline post on the Martial Artist Forum was as follows:

“Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall’s 3 top Russian experts challenge the Shadow Dance Martial Arts Academy today, with live video broadcast. ”

The live broadcast had already ended, and the video was from the morning. Lin Zhen watched it.

The man entering the stage was named Nelov, a tall Russian over two meters tall, muscular like a polar bear, his developed muscles giving a sense of exaggeration.

He brought some people from Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall, Lin Zhen could roughly recognize their names.

The video showed Nelov fighting a Level Nine Warrior from the Shadow Dance Martial Arts Academy. That Level Nine Warrior was considered an ace in the academy, having exceptional speed and strength, but he was no match for Nelov.

The power Nelov possessed was even stronger than Meng Dong’s innate Divine Power, surpassing the normal limit of a warrior phase and comparable to an average War General. His massive body also possessed strong resistance to strikes, and the Level Nine Warrior’s attacks were like child’s play in his eyes.

After taking several hits without much harm, his punch forced the Level Nine

Warrior to retreat in disgrace. The fight lasted less than a minute, and the Level Nine Warrior was knocked down with a single punch, vomiting blood, making his future promotion to War General uncertain. “Hahaha! Sick man of East Asia!”

Nelov’s Chinese was quite standard, so it was clear to hear.

Behind him, a group of people laughed arrogantly. Unable to tolerate it, a warrior from Shadow Dance Martial Arts Academy took out a long sword and attacked Nelov.

Nelov didn’t move, instead, a fiery Russian woman behind him made a move.

The woman wielded two Western swords, with lightning-fast movements. Instead of swinging left and right, she executed continuous stabs so quick that people couldn’t clearly see. After a flash of sword light, the warrior was lying in a pool of blood, and even if he didn’t die, his injuries were definitely not light.

After defeating their opponents, the group left laughing. Since no one died in the agreed-upon fight between martial artists, the authorities wouldn’t intervene.

There were more than one similar posts, all featuring videos of recent challenges initiated by the people from Blue Sky, and in every case, the Russians from Blue Sky won.

There were three Russians in total. Apart from the power lifter Nelov, there was Eva, who excelled in lightning-fast Western swordplay, and a gloomy-faced Russian named Ivan, who had never made a move.

The comments under the posts were filled with righteous indignation, accusing the Russian martial artists of cruel attacks, and blaming the people from Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall for colluding with the Russians to attack Hua Xia martial artists.

“The people of Blue Sky Martial Hall, I XXX, seek glory by betraying the country. They are not worthy of being martial artists!”

“North Pole bears, go back to Siberia! Ice City does not welcome you!”

“Siberia used to be Hua Xia too, so if you want to roll, roll back to the Arctic Circle.”

“This is already how many martial halls? Is there no one in Ice City Base City who can stop these Russians? Where are the people from the Dragon Slayer? Where are the people from Gale? Wasn’t Lin Zhen proclaimed as the top genius with a 99% increase in strength in the warrior phase?”

“Don’t mention Lin Zhen. It seems he’s been feeding the beasts in Yi Lan for a long time. To deal with these old Russians, we still have to count on our Dragon Slayer’s Lei Ming.”

“What’s the point of Lei Ming? If Gale didn’t have Lin Zhen, they would still be the top martial hall. Let’s see how Fu Chengya and Shen Yuhua send these Russian bastards back home.”

“In front of our Changfeng’s Chen Jingchou, all those goods you’re talking about are shit… especially Lin Zhen. It’s a good thing he died early, otherwise, he would end up trampled underfoot anyway.”

“Wanhao Group’s young master Li Tianhao also has great strength. I wonder if he can join the fight?”

After reading these varied comments for a while, Lin Zhen closed the Martial Artist Forum.

The commotion stirred up by the people of Blue Sky had begun to ferment, and it would soon cause upheaval in Ice City. Lin Zhen was waiting for a suitable opportunity, a chance to truly change his destiny..
