Age of Evolution

Chapter 699: Chapter 702: One Flower, One World

Lin Zhen didn’t know how he had survived these months, eating a little frozen snow animal when he was hungry, and slowly melting a handful of snow in his mouth when he was thirsty.

Hope is really a magical thing. Chris had judged that he could only hold on for twenty-five days, but he had held on for more than six months!

Counting the previous three months, he had been here for almost ten months.

That is to say, the winter of the Pure Land was about to pass.

With an unyielding will to keep his heart alive, Lin Zhen lived in a near-death state.

Whenever something threatened the snow lotus, he miraculously stepped in and continued to protect it with his meager strength.

An aurora fell from the sky, landing on the snow lotus and Lin Zhen’s body.

“The power of light speed is almost the ultimate in speed, but this aurora is different, it looks like wind, like clouds, slow in speed, but it is the purest light.”

Lin Zhen’s eyes followed the movement of the light, and he seemed to have some insight in his heart.

“The speed of martial artists is divided into two types: attack speed and movement speed. Short-distance attack speed is often easier to master than movement speed, but I have been unable to make a breakthrough in this area.”

“What is the mystery of light? How can I make my shots truly like lightning, one step ahead of others?”

The fastest person Lin Zhen had ever seen in action was Ning Qingxuan. When blocking the Permanent Crystal Planet, Ning Qingxuan had used an extremely fast and powerful sword strike to forcibly blast the planet off course.

Such an attack would be difficult to achieve without the speed of light, but at that time, Ning Qingxuan was already close to breaking through to the Longevity Realm as a super martial artist.

Among the World Kings, the fastest person Lin Zhen had seen in action was La Moti. When his Star Power was maintaining at fourteen million, Lin Zhen was unable to dodge La Moti’s sneak attack and had his avatar killed by a single slash.

In Lin Zhen’s view, La Moti’s move was also nearly light-speed.

This was the power of high-speed attacks, which are difficult for others to contend with.

Lin Zhen’s hands slowly tried to move, but their speed was ridiculously slow, and his stiff arms could hardly reach a normal person’s level.

But still, he stubbornly followed the movement of the aurora, which was an obsession.

His heartbeat became fainter and fainter, and he was already at his limit.

That long-lost voice appeared at this moment.

“Lin Zhen, you have held on beyond my expectations for more than nine months. The Polar Region’s winter is about to pass, but can you hold on any longer?”

The voice was mesmerizing, going deep into Lin Zhen’s soul, full of temptation.

“If you’re tired, rest. Lie down, lie next to that snow lotus, and fall asleep with the scent of the flowers. Perhaps in your dreams, you’ll see the moment when the flowers bloom.”

Lin Zhen’s body swayed gently as if he heard and didn’t hear.

“Rest, you rest for a while, winter will pass, you will be able to safely return to the Divine Punishment Star’s battle zone, why torture yourself like this? I have prepared food and medicinal materials for you. Rest for a while, and someone will soon come to treat you.”

At this moment, Lin Zhen’s appearance could only be described as painful. His body was full of sores, pus was everywhere, and even frozen on the surface of his body.

His body could only be described as riddled with holes. This should not have been the body of a living being; it was so disgusting that even wild dogs would not eat it.

Food and medicinal materials must have been tempting for someone like him.

Lin Zhen seemed a little shaken, but he still refused to answer the person’s words.

“I know what you’re doing, trying to comprehend the essence of light, but I advise you not to waste your energy. You’re just a small World King, and you don’t even have the strength anymore. There’s no result if this continues. Why don’t I give you a hint so you can successfully comprehend the power of light?”

Lin Zhen’s body trembled. He had gone through so much, just to learn the speed of light. But he didn’t expect the voice to say it could give him a hint.

Had he passed the test? Had the nine months of torment passed?

After a long while, Lin Zhen slowly opened his mouth, “Is this part of the test as well?”

“Hehe! People are foolish, but they always try to guess the thoughts of gods, and don’t know how to seize the opportunity in front of them. Lin Zhen, what do you say?”

“People are indeed foolish, but I believe more that there is no such thing as a free lunch.”

Lin Zhen, enduring a wave of dizziness, said, “I am just a dying man now, and there can’t be much value left in me. But you give me such generous terms that I can’t help but doubt something.”

“Don’t talk about gods, in the eyes of martial artists, gods are just more powerful martial artists, there may be someplace I don’t know, but I dare say, if I really rest as you wish, then my life will soon be over.”

“If you hadn’t appeared, I might not have thought of some things, but now I feel that I must persevere, just as I initially thought, waiting for the flowers to bloom!”

“This flower has been able to grow here, and I have been guarding it for so long, how can I give up!”

Lin Zhen’s stubbornness seemed to have angered the voice, “Stubborn, it’s a pity you won’t be able to hold on until that time!”

A strong wind blew past, the temperature plummeted again, and the ice and snow rapidly gathered, turning Lin Zhen into a real ice sculpture.

He couldn’t move at all, his body seemed sealed in an ice coffin, a fierce cold attack froze his body, froze his blood, and prevented him from breathing any longer.

At this moment, his body was already dead!

However, his soul still remained within his body!

That’s because he still had unfinished wishes, he couldn’t leave, his will hadn’t died yet!

Between heaven and earth, it seemed that only the lotus flower and the large ice block that had frozen Lin Zhen existed.

A day passed, Lin Zhen persisted, three days passed, and he hadn’t truly died yet.

This unyielding will could support his soul, fighting against an unmatched power, nothing in the world could break his will, unless his life was completely over!

Even if his life ended, Lin Zhen firmly believed that it would be the start of something new since he had come this far!

Five days passed, seven days passed!

Lin Zhen, within the ice block, watched the flower bud of the snow lotus quietly change.

An aurora fell from the sky, and Lin Zhen felt as if he were a beam of light, slowly falling on the snow lotus.

When the first petal gently cracked open, Lin Zhen’s soul felt it.

It was the power of life, his entire world!

“The flower has bloomed! The polar spring is coming, a new world is about to appear, I understand now, one flower one world, this is the World Power, it’s the World Power!”

Within his dantian, the star power that had been completely sealed loosened at this moment.

At this time, Lin Zhen not only touched the true meaning of light, but also the true meaning of the World King!

*********

The battle on Divine Punishment Star was about to end.

During this period, those who paid attention to the Divine Punishment Star were always tense, because the end could come at any time.

From the initial ten billion people to over 30 million people five months ago, there had been very few large-scale battles in these five months, but sporadic battles persisted every day.

From 30 million people to 10 million people three months ago.

Two months ago, there were only two million people here.

One month ago, there were only 300,000 martial artists on the Divine Punishment Star.

By this month, the martial artists of the Divine Punishment Star numbered just over 100,000.

By this point, trying to find an undead creature was difficult. There were tens of thousands of undead creatures spread across the 400 war zones, making it hard to locate even one.

Moreover, some martial artists were still engaged in mad slaughter, causing a sharp decrease in their numbers, such as Saintess Feng Qingluan of the Phoenix Clan, whose continuous killing had ignited the anger of many.

From the one hundredth place to fourth place, then from fourth place to second place, she even surpassed Boston’s points, chasing after Qin Jianfeng.

As a result, not only was Boston furious, but Qin Jianfeng also felt tremendous pressure.

Qin Jianfeng was aiming to win the refining of the Super Divine Body. If Feng Qingluan took it, that would be absolutely unacceptable to him.

Killing Feng Qingluan had become a must, but Fen Qingluan was not an easy target to kill. This woman was born for the battlefield, never engaging in lengthy battles, mysterious and elusive. Several attempts to encircle and kill her had failed.

In the end, Qin Jianfeng, Boston, Holy Word, and La Moti, who had killed their way back into the top ten, all gathered together.

“Everyone, I believe we can reach a peace agreement. I must ensure that my first place position is not shaken!”

The black-clad Qin Jianfeng spoke.

Boston didn’t say anything, neither did La Moti and Holy Word. They knew that it would be difficult to defeat Qin Jianfeng, but they would not unconditionally listen to him either.

“Feng Qingluan must be eliminated. I need your help. In addition to ensuring that each of you receives a spot for Advanced Divine Body tempering, I’m willing to provide each of you with 100 billion in funds!”

“One hundred billion!” The eyes of several super World King powerhouses lit up, as this was no small sum.

“That’s right, besides, you will also gain my friendship, Qin Jianfeng. Even if you don’t care about my friendship, simply treat it as a transaction. I’m hiring you all to help me out just this once.”

Boston finally nodded: “Qin Jianfeng, just tell us what to do.”

“The bait is already prepared, just waiting for Feng Qingluan to bite. Everyone just needs to set up an ambush, and not give her a chance to escape when the time comes.”

“I’m afraid it’s not that simple. As far as I know, you’ve done this more than once, but it didn’t work. That woman is cunning.” La Moti said.

“You’re right, but this time it’s different. She will definitely take the bait this time, and I’ve prepared more than just one move. As long as you do as I say, she’ll have no chance of escaping!”

Qin Jianfeng was very confident when he said this. In order to launch this siege, he had paid a huge price, but as long as he succeeded, his position as number one would be unshakable. As long as he received the Super Divine Body tempering, it would all be worth it.
