Age of Evolution

An incredible strike, launched at a speed surpassing sub-light speed, just barely blocked the almost lethal strike from the ambusher!

It was a black curved blade, with antique patterns on it. This was a Middle Grade Heavenly Weapon curved blade. With one slash, Lin Zhen’s Light Annihilation was cut in half, but due to its blockage, the blade only grazed Lin Zhen’s neck, not cutting him.

This was the last ambusher, whose Star Power was almost on par with Lin Zhen during the attack.

Even if this person didn’t have 20,000 Star Power, he definitely had more than 19,000!

This person was Ji Du, the last of the Seven Evil Stars. He also felt Lin Zhen’s strength and did not dare to act rashly. After Lin Zhen successively killed Yue Bei, Seven Kills, and Po Jun, Ji Du took a risk when he saw that Lin Zhen had no weapons in his hand.

However, Ji Du did not expect that Lin Zhen still had the Light Annihilation in his hand, which actually blocked his curved blade’s stealth attack.

But after all, Light Annihilation was not Lin Zhen’s handy weapon, and its quality was only at the level of a Middle Grade Artifact. Under the blade of Ji Du in his hand, it was cut in half.

Between Ji Du’s eyebrows was a sinister aura. He gripped the curved blade with both hands and suddenly unleashed all his Star Power!

“Lin Zhen! Today, this is where you will be buried!”

Obviously, this was a secret technique that burned Star Power at the cost of injury in exchange for a temporary boost, allowing his Star Power to briefly surpass Lin Zhen’s. As a result, Lin Zhen’s time field was rendered useless in front of him.

The curved blade was like a maggot attached to the bone, pressing against Lin Zhen’s neck as it pushed forward!

Lin Zhen noticed the other three people hiding but didn’t detect Ji Du’s lurking presence. This person’s strength was somewhat beyond Lin Zhen’s expectations!

Lin Zhen’s body quickly retreated, relying on his evasion technique at this moment. He didn’t even have enough time to use his teleportation ability; the coldness of the blade could be felt even on his hair.

A slight hesitation would lead to a dead end!

Lin Zhen thought his speed would be able to shake off Ji Du, but he didn’t expect a dark energy to coil around his waist like a rope, binding them together.

No matter how fast Lin Zhen fled, Ji Du could always keep up!

“Hehehe… Lin Zhen, didn’t expect it, right? You better not slow down; the moment you do, my blade will cut your neck!”

Ji Du had set up a seemingly inescapable deathtrap at great cost to himself.

Despite Lin Zhen slaughtering several of his companions, Ji Du remained unmoved, waiting for the critical moment to unleash all his skills. Using burning Star Power as a price, he was determined to kill Lin Zhen in one strike!

As they rapidly retreated through space, Lin Zhen couldn’t afford to hesitate at all; the moment he did, the opponent’s curved blade would take advantage of the situation and strike.

But Lin Zhen’s eyes showed no panic, as he used all his strength to shrink his body back!

This was not a regular move, but a universal backward lean that anyone could do.

Such a simple move barely widened the gap between him and Ji Du’s curved blade by the width of one person.

Originally, this wouldn’t have been of much help; Ji Du could easily close the distance and bring fatal disaster to Lin Zhen with a little effort, but Lin Zhen only needed this tiny bit of space.

The body-double appeared!

Lin Zhen’s body-double had always been in the Dark Star Space. Despite having transferred its Star Power to Lin Zhen, it could still armorize.

Moreover, the defense and strength of the armorized body-double were even stronger than Lin Zhen’s main body.

Ji Du’s slash struck out, but only hit Lin Zhen’s body-double!

It sliced through the body-double’s armor, cut through the obstructing arms, and cut through the scale-armor on the neck, but it did not chop off the head of the body-double.

Because Lin Zhen’s main body grasped this tiny opportunity, the half of Light Annihilation in his hand had once again become a sharp weapon. Through his body-double’s body, he stabbed Ji Du’s dantian in his lower abdomen!

Starlightonce again appeared, Ji Du… was finished!

Just like Yue Bei, Ji Du’s dantian started to release Star Power, and he suddenly wilted.

Once one’s dantian is destroyed, a Martial Artist’s future is gone. This was undoubtedly more painful for someone who had been accustomed to power than death.

Ji Du was determined enough. When his Star Power was released, he glared fiercely at Lin Zhen, “Lin Zhen! Don’t be complacent, you will definitely die at the hands of Luo Gou.”

Lin Zhen snorted coldly, “I’ve killed six of you, it won’t make a difference to kill Luo Gou as well.”

“Fool! Luo Gou is not like us; he is not on the same level as us. When you meet Luo Gou, you will know what terror is.”

“Pff~!”

With a swipe of the curved knife across his throat, Ji Du committed suicide.

Lin Zhen didn’t plan on controlling Ji Du. It was almost impossible to control a high-level expert like him mentally. Even if there was a slight chance, Lin Zhen did not want to do it.

He wouldn’t leave any of the Evil Stars that came to destroy the Baiyulan Star arena alive, even if it was for Yaya’s sake, and for the sake of all the people on Baiyulan Star.

After Ji Du’s death, the starry sky finally became truly silent. All the survivors had fled, leaving only the floating corpses of several Evil Stars.

Lin Zhen first checked the condition of his doppelganger. This time the situation was somewhat dangerous. If it wasn’t for the doppelganger, he might have died under Ji Du’s knife and, at most, ended up in a mutually destructive situation.

However, the doppelganger’s vital throat had not been cut open, it was just severely injured but not dead.

He withdrew his doppelganger to the Dark Star Space, where no one would disturb him, and the doppelganger could gradually heal its injuries.

Ji Du committed suicide, and Yue Bei, whose Dantian had been broken, also committed suicide.

Seven Kills died, Po Jun died, and the Five Ghosts and Ying Huo were completely wiped out. The six Evil Stars that came to Baiyulan Star were finally all dead without any remaining.

Lin Zhen waved his hand, and Yin Yang Cliff Corner double guns returned to his hands, and the Seven Stars Knife was also put away.

Light Annihilation fell back into his hand and immediately merged together, turning into a belt around Lin Zhen’s waist.

He stripped off several Space Rings, but inside were still the frustrating bank cards.

A few scattered Cosmic Crystals, probably worth tens of millions, were collected by Lin Zhen, enough to ensure that he would not be short of money for the time being.

The weapons of the six Evil Stars were also considered a fortune, especially Ji Du’s curved knife, a middle-grade Heavenly Weapon, which was quite valuable, as a bit of compensation for Lin Zhen.

Standing in the air, looking at the previous location of Baiyulan Star, Lin Zhen sighed.

In the vast universe, innocent people will always die unjustly. He could not let these things affect his mood, as he still had more critical things to do.

Yaya, may you rest in peace!

**********

Kirin Holy Star, a villa in the mountains.

It was heavily guarded, with the latest technology robots in charge of security, and ordinary people and martial artists who dared to approach within thousands of miles would definitely be killed by the robots.

Even the Royal family needed a pass to enter this area.

All the villa owners in this area had names that commanded respect, as this was a place where Domain King-level strongmen lived.

973 Villa was occupied by Heaven Fang, the executive of the Dimensional Arena.

“Father, you should be aware of what happened in District 68, right?”

Tianci paced anxiously in the room, looking at his father who was still leisurely drinking tea on the sofa.

“I heard about it, and I was the one who ordered to freeze Lin Zhen’s Dimensional Arena account.”

“Then you should know that they made a big commotion at Baiyulan Star, including the six Evil Stars of the Arena, all killed by Lin Zhen.”

“I know about this matter, it caused quite a stir, but Lin Zhen is quite capable, being able to kill Ji Du is really beyond my expectation.”

“Knowing this, how can you sit here drinking tea so calmly? Lin Zhen will definitely guess that you did this. He won’t dare to trouble you, but he will definitely vent his anger on me.”

Looking at his son’s panicking face, Heaven Fang frowned slightly, “Look at yourself, can’t you keep calm?”

“Dad~! I’m not you, with Domain King-level strength, of course, you can be carefree. I’m just a Star System Level 4, and I’m dead if Lin Zhen finds me.”

Heaven Fang sighed and put down the tea cup, “I’ve already planned for this matter. Luo Gou has already contacted me, and Lin Zhen can’t even pass Luo Gou’s test let alone find you. What are you worried about with a man who’s about to die?”

“Really? Luo Gou is going to take action?”

“Nonsense! Among the seven Evil Stars in the Arena, Luo Gou is the boss. Now that his six brothers have been killed, can he sit still?”

Tianci thought for a moment, “But Lin Zhen killed the six Evil Stars all by himself. I’m afraid Luo Gou is not his opponent even if he goes, right?”

“What do you know!”

Heaven Fang scolded his son coldly, “Luo Gou’s strength is beyond your imagination. Let me put it this way, if it’s a friendly competition, he’s not my opponent at all, and I can destroy him with one hand. But if it’s a life-and-death battle, even I am not sure I can defeat him.”

“No way! He’s no matter how strong, still a Tier Nine Star System. Dad, you’re already at Star Domain Level 2.”

“Hmph~! That is just what you see on the surface. If it’s a life-and-death fight, you’ll see his ferocious face. Ten Lin Zhens are not enough for him to slaughter!”

Hearing Heaven Fang’s words, Tianci sat back down, and his heart finally went back to normal.

It seemed that Lin Zhen would never be Luo Gou’s opponent, and with that, he was completely reassured.

“Stay at home honestly these days. I’m here, and no matter how daring Lin Zhen is, he won’t dare to come to you. Just wait for the news of him being killed by Luo Gou.”

Tianci nodded, but he immediately thought of Ye Hua.

Would Lin Zhen take revenge on Ye Hua? After all, Ye Hua was involved in the Chaotic Star River incident at the beginning.

However, he immediately shook his head. Lin Zhen probably didn’t have the guts, as Ye Hua’s father was the World King, and Ye Hua was his only son. Although the Mechanical World King was not at home temporarily, if anyone touched Ye Hua, no one would dare to bear the consequences.
