Chapter 433: 433: The Power of Genes

This was another genetically enhanced individual.

Unlike Anderson, who was almost a mutant, he was successfully enhanced, but the genetic fluid he used came not from a Galaxy Beast.

About half of the enhancers use Mutated Beast genes, and of the rest, half use Beast King genes.

Of the remaining quarter, half use low-level Galaxy Beast genes. Anderson was at this level, only he was a failure.

Then come the intermediate and advanced Galaxy Beast genes.

As for the most powerful Super Galaxy Beast genes, these were rarer than one in ten thousand.

Now, Cao Yang, in his Beast King battle formation, should have been fortified by the gene of a mutated ice centipede.

Centipedes have many legs, and when applied to humans, it means multiple arms.

Cao Yang had hundreds of additional arms, with countless weapons assaulting Lin Zhen.

In Cao Yang’s view, Lin Zhen could not possibly withstand his attack. How could a pair of hands compete with his hundred pairs of hands!

Lin Zhen held his breath, his feet swiftly maneuvering the Plum Blossom Piles stance, and when Cao Yang’s storm of attacks arrived, the Yin-Yang Spear fiercely thrusted out!

Meteor!

A meteor flew in from the outer space, fiercely opposing the storm of weapons!

“Haha! You fool, how can your single spear withstand the force of my hundred hands. Die!”

Lin Zhen hooked his lips in a faint sneer, disregarding Cao Yang’s taunts. When the two torrents collided, he suddenly exerted his full power!

The meteor exploded!

Countless pieces of meteorite debris burst out like a geyser of rocks, successfully blocking Cao Yang’s attack in the air!

The sight of a large-scale explosion, the bodies of the two men shaking within the shockwaves of the collision!

The virtual ground of the Asura Arena was flattened by the constant booming and automatically fixed itself, before being blasted into pits again. This process was a rapid contest of their raw powers, whoever exhausted their strength first would lose!

Lin Zhen was also madly exerting his star power, the force of the collision making his bones weak.

This was a test of Star Power, but even more so, a test of physical strength.

“Lin Zhen! Stop resisting, my body has been enhanced with genetic fluid, there’s no way your feeble human body could compete with mine!”

Lin Zhen, enduring the fatigue in his body, continued to strike back, his feet sinking into the ground.

Just when he felt he could go no further, a rush of heat surged up within him.

This force came from every cell, every muscle, allowing him to continue.

“This is the power of Xiao Nuan, my symbiote is the body of the Super Star River Beast, Fire Kirin, so my genes are the most powerful. It’s just that my bloodline power has not yet been awakened, but with the basic strength of this body, I have no fear of Cao Yang’s Beast King power!”

“If I can really get the Fire Kirin’s bloodline gene and awaken the potential within me, how powerful could this body be?”

“I must get the Genetic Potion as soon as possible!”

Under the relentless onslaught of Cao Yang, Lin Zhen’s potential was ignited a bit, this was enough to counter Cao Yang!

After a drawn-out minute of collision, Lin Zhen held on, and Cao Yang’s strength was now insufficient to sustain his heavy attack.

The hundreds of arms behind his body grew weak and were eventually forced to rest.

“Impossible! It’s not possible! You have actually withstood my hundred-hand attack with just the power of a single spear!”

With the cessation of the fight, Cao Yang incredulously stared at Lin Zhen as if he were a monster.

“Did you also enhance your gene bloodline?”

“You don’t need to know that much, it’s my turn to attack now!”

“Galaxy Domain!”

With a raise of his hand, the Galaxy Domain reopened, and in just a second seven planets condensed in the air. He prepared to finish the fight with a Starburst.

It was now a period of exhaustion for Cao Yang, although brief, it was enough to determine the outcome of the fight. This was the benefit of strong bloodline power.

“You can’t defeat me! The position of Lord is mine!”

Cao Yang roared angrily, finally unleashing his last resort.

From his forehead, a green poisonous fog wrapped in white freezing air sprayed out, instantly enveloping Lin Zhen.

Seeing that Lin Zhen failed to dodge, Cao Yang began to laugh loudly: “You are finished, it’s the poison of the Ice Centipede, enough to turn you into blood-water in just a second, goodbye, Lin Zhen!”

He laughed heartily a few times, but soon he stopped laughing.

Lin Zhen was still controlling those planets, rapidly setting up a trap around Cao Yang, and then initiated a ferocious Starburst.

Cao Yang couldn’t withstand this torrent of explosions with his enhanced Ice Centipede’s body. After the successive explosions of dozens of planets, he could no longer hold on!

“Why? Why are you not poisoned?”

“There’s no need for you to know that, Cao Yang, you of the Blue Bay Star have lost!”

With a lift of Lin Zhen’s hand, four more planets appeared inside the Galaxy Domain, surrounding Cao Yang from four directions and exploding simultaneously!

In a burst of intense light, Cao Yang’s body was shattered and reduced to ashes!

Watching as Cao Yang’s body disappeared on the spot, Lin Zhen raised his hand to disperse the lingering toxins from the air.

“Hmph! Trying to poison me…you’ve only humiliated yourself!”

Looking up at the surrounding audience, Lin Zhen declared loudly: “The battle is over. I hope you haven’t forgotten what I said before it began. Submit all your tax payments, and your governing bodies should immediately transfer their power to my office. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

The scene fell silent as everyone from the Solar Territory was intimidated by Lin Zhen’s overwhelming martial force, daring not to utter a sound.

However, many still harbored the hope that since Lin Zhen could not physically reach their planets, they didn’t need to surrender or face any consequences.

Of course, Lin Zhen was well aware of their thoughts, but he didn’t bother wasting time arguing and simply called the Asura Arena off.

As the scene disappeared, everyone withdrew from the Dimensional Universe.

The folks from the Solar Territory were now watching, waiting to see Blue Bay Star’s response. If Blue Bay Star stood firm, they wouldn’t pay the taxes either.

There were indeed some people on Blue Bay Star’s forum expressing discontent, saying that if Lin Zhen was capable, he could come and collect the taxes himself instead of abiding quietly on Earth!

However, top-notch fighters like Cao Yang stayed silent, knowing full well that with Lin Zhen’s power, he could very well reach Blue Bay Star sooner or later.

What they didn’t anticipate was that Lin Zhen would arrive so quickly.

Just three minutes after the end of the Asura Arena, Lin Zhen’s Perpetual Crystal Spaceship was spotted in the skies above Blue Bay Star.

“Master, we’ve arrived at Blue Bay Star.”

“Call out all the important figures on this planet. I want them to present themselves before my spaceship within ten minutes. Any latecomers will be deemed traitors!”

Gazing down at the beautiful planet below, where the sea areas were even more vast than those on Earth, Lin Zhen issued his command.

The call went out throughout the Dimensional Universe, and the news of Lin Zhen’s arrival was immediately disseminated throughout Blue Bay Star.

This news crushed the hopes of those who wished for a stroke of good fortune.

A lord with immense power, possessing a spaceship capable of light-speed travel, demonstrated his formidable wealth. Such a lord was nearly impossible to contend with.

After the bloodshed in the Asura Arena, no one doubted that Lin Zhen was ruthless. Nobody dared to defy his orders at this point.

Within ten minutes, all the summoned individuals from Blue Bay Star had congregated before the Perpetual Crystal Spaceship.

As Blue Bay Star’s most powerful fighter, Cao Yang stood at the front of the crowd, staring at the spaceship crafted entirely from Permanent Crystal, finally grasping the vast difference between him and Lin Zhen.

Just this spaceship alone was likely a wealth that he could never hope to attain.

After standing below for a full hour, the spaceship’s door finally opened, and a hundred Constant Star Stage experts emerged first.

These individuals took positions on both sides, followed by two Black Wing Clan warriors stepping out.

“Constant Star Level Nine! Constant Star Level Nine Spiritual Mind Master! That’s almost on par with the Martial God, Cao Yang!”

The crowd below murmured among themselves.

Zi Shisan and Zi Shiqi stood at the front of the line, and then a beautiful figure appeared at the spaceship’s entrance.

The stunning Black Wing Clan princess, Zi Qianxia, stepped out.

“My god! She is at the Late Black Hole Stage!”

“She’s about to become a Star System Term Expert, and she’s not even a slave. Who is this person?”

“Is Lin Zhen planning to wipe out our planet? Even if every single one of us on this planet joined hands, we still couldn’t stand against these hundred or so people.”

“Damn, why was I so blinded with greed, challenging the Lord back then? I hope he doesn’t hold a grudge against me for challenging him and frame me for some crime.”

“Get over it. There’s no way he’d remember you. You were merely one of the thousands whose heads he blew up in an instant. You’re not worth remembering.”

Under the attentive gaze of the onlookers, Zi Qianxia curtsied slightly, inviting Lin Zhen to step out of the cabin door.

With Zi Qianxia’s support, Lin Zhen descended from the spaceship, looking down at the crowd below.

“Have you forgotten my words?”

King of the Azure Dragon Holy Nation said with his forehead covered in sweat: “Respected Lord, we haven’t forgotten. It’s just that you came so quickly, we didn’t have time to send the taxes over. However, with your personal visit, it’s even better as we can deliver them to you directly.”

“Remember, it’s double the amount!”

“Yes, yes, absolutely double, not a cent less.”

Lin Zhen slowly walked down to where Cao Yang was standing and paused: “Do you still want to be a Lord?”

Cao Yang forced out a bitter smile and shook his head: “Lord, please don’t ridicule me. I was just overconfident before. At the welcome banquet later, Cao Yang will personally apologize to you.”

Only then did Lin Zhen reveal a smile, patting Cao Yang on the shoulder: “I can hold my liquor quite well. You’d better be prepared.”

Seeing Lin Zhen smile, the people of Blue Bay Star heaved a long sigh of relief. As long as Lin Zhen wasn’t blaming anyone, all was well.

At that moment, Lin Zhen’s Dimensional Universe started receiving notifications. One by one, payments from every planet in the Solar Territory arrived!
