Chapter 616 - 618: Special Training Quota
Lin Zhen’s body shook, returning to his human form.
He walked over to the tail of the Giant Snake, lifted the huge tail, and pulled out his Yin-Yang Spear from underneath.
When he transformed into the Galaxy Beast, the Yin-Yang Spear was under his body, the spear tip standing up more than a meter. He deliberately confronted the Giant Snake, luring it into pursuit. When the Giant Snake chased him, the spear gave it a big cut from head to tail!
This innate Galaxy Beast did not transform, and its intelligence was not fully awakened. Although it was powerful, its intelligence could not compare to humans.
It’s a pity this is a virtual world, otherwise this World King level snake could be sold for a huge sky-high price!
However, it is said that killing a Galaxy Beast can get rewards from the Dimensional Universe Company, and Lin Zhen is still looking forward to this.
Maybe there will be some surprises.
In fact, when he saw this Giant Snake, Lin Zhen had already made up his mind. If there was a suitable opportunity, he would kill this Galaxy Beast and get a reward.
Although there was some cunning involved, no one could deny that Lin Zhen single-handedly killed a World King level Galaxy Beast!
There are only three World King level Galaxy Beasts here, and since Dimensional Universe Company said there would be rewards, the rewards must not be bad.
After pulling out the spear, Lin Zhen, ignoring the shocked eyes of others, accelerated forward and quickly passed the third layer!
After passing the third layer, Lin Zhen’s ranking reached 490,000!
Looking at Mu Huaiyu, who was ranked first, he had already entered the sixth layer.
The fourth layer was a river; a winding river rushed towards the entrance of the fifth layer, and the surrounding area was all cliffs.
Lin Zhen laughed, “Great, this layer is perfect for me to chase after. I believe there won’t be any Galaxy Beasts on this layer.”
With a wave of his hand, Ice appeared again, and Lin Zhen skated on it, far faster than others who were swimming or using bamboo rafts.
His ranking rose rapidly, and by this point, Lin Zhen had caught up with the main force, entering the top 400,000 before half the journey was over.
“After passing this layer, my ranking will definitely be within 300,000 or even 200,000!”
This layer, which was supposed to be quite difficult to advance through, became incredibly simple under Lin Zhen’s Freezing air. After this layer, Lin Zhen’s ranking reached 180,000!
At this time, Mu Huaiyu, the first-place person, still hadn’t passed the sixth layer.
The fifth layer was a high mountain, and to pass through, one had to climb the mountain. This was not a challenge for Lin Zhen with his strong physical strength, so he decided to compete in speed!
As Lin Zhen’s strength burst, his ranking continued to rise, making some people finally feel uneasy.
*********
“Mu En! Look at what you’ve done? Lin Zhen has already reached the top 150,000, his speed is too fast!”
“Yes, Your Highness, I will find a way to stop him.”
Sweat appeared on Mu En’s forehead as he spoke to the Wood King. “Your Highness, but I’m just a servant, and I don’t have any authority. Lin Zhen’s strength is strong, and anything inside the virtual world is out of control. Do you have to have the Crown Prince take first place?”
The Wood King, Mu Jingshan, pondered for a moment, “This is a must. The Crown Prince wouldn’t normally participate in this assessment for guest officials. However, I received a message that if one gets first place, one can get a reward from the Dimensional Universe Company. Do you know what the reward for first place is?”
“Cash? Treasure?”
“Neither, I don’t lack these things. It’s an opportunity for Huaiyu to study at the Alchemist Association. You know, Huaiyu has studied Alchemy for a thousand years and has reached the Third Grade Alchemist level. However, there is no powerful Alchemist in my territory. I must let him go to Xianle County to learn more profound Alchemy. Only this path can guarantee that our position will not be shaken.”
Mu En nodded repeatedly, understanding that a high-level Alchemist is too important. The Crown Prince was talented in Alchemy, and if he could become a Fifth Grade Alchemist_then the position of the Wood King Mansion would be even more stable.
“In that case, it’s simple. There are Galaxy Beasts in the sixth layer. Your Highness, you can have your men help the Crown Prince pass and leave a part behind to kill Lin Zhen.”
“No, just passing through is not enough. Most of the people in the first group are those I arranged. Although the Galaxy Beast has reached the World King level, it does not have human intelligence. It is not impossible to kill it.”
Mu Jingshan thought for a moment and resolutely issued an order within the Dimensional Universe.
“All who protect the Crown Prince, listen up, help the Crown Prince kill the Galaxy Beast on the sixth layer at all costs, but make sure the Crown Prince lands the final blow and records it. Those who survive, leave some people to kill a man named Lin Zhen!”
Mu En was stunned, not expecting the Wood King to be so bold as to kill a World King level Galaxy Beast.
“Mu En, you must know that, when acting, one cannot drag in the mud and water. If we cannot kill the sixth-layer Galaxy Beast, even if Huaiyu gets first place, the people at the Dimensional Universe Company will not think that his ability surpasses Lin Zhen. I don’t want his victory to be overshadowed. Do you understand?”
“I understand, if we want to get first place, we must get a comprehensive first place!”
*********
The sixth layer was a Desert landscape, and the traveling speed was quite fast.
A white-clothed youth took the lead in the front, and nearly 9,000 elite Tier Nine Star System guards closely followed him, not allowing anyone to surpass him in the slightest.
Whenever there was danger, people in the back would neatly launch long-range attacks, snuffing out the danger in its nascent state.
The young man was the Wood Prince, Mu Huaiyu, at a Tier Nine Star System with as much as 620,000 Star Power!
It was normal for his Star Power to be high since he cultivated secret techniques from the Original World.
Moreover, the strong ones from the Original World are basically compressed tenfold.
Lin Zhen’s Star Power is high due to the Dark Star Space and the Evil Star Chart, of which the latter is actually a technique from the Original World.
Mu Huaiyu had such a technique too!
The guards behind him were the ones who accompanied him into the virtual space for the first time, and were all appointed by the Wood King.
With these guards protecting him, nothing could stop him in front, and no one could catch up to him from behind.
Only when they passed the World King level Giant Snake, had they lost over a thousand guards, just to ensure Mu Huaiyu passed through the Giant Snake’s territory safely.
However, at this point, they received an order from the Wood King.
“Crown Prince, the king said that a martial artist named Lin Zhen has killed that Giant Snake.”
“What? Someone was actually able to kill a World King-level Galaxy Beast?”
“It’s absolutely true. The king bought this virtual space with money, so he has viewing authority. Our entry order was also arranged by him. That’s what he said.”
“Damn it! In this case, hasn’t that guy stolen all my glory? What should I do?”
“Crown Prince, please calm down. The king has already issued an order, asking us to help you kill another World King-level Galaxy Beast here, no matter the cost.”
The one who spoke was an iron-faced martial artist with over 500,000 Star Power—his personal guard.
“Good! Killing a Galaxy Beast on the sixth floor is definitely better than killing one on the third floor. I’ll just have to deal the final blow. But where is the Galaxy Beast?”
“There, just ahead!”
Mu Huaiyu looked up and saw the sand dune in front of him bulging like a small hill suddenly rising from the ground.
Amid the scattering yellow sand, a lizard-like creature appeared, resembling a fire dragon.
“Fire Dragon Lizard! Crown Prince, be careful. This is a mid-level Galaxy Beast and extremely fierce!”
The previous Giant Python could only be considered a low-level Galaxy Beast. Its power was no match for this Fire Dragon Lizard.
Mu Huaiyu immediately retreated and temporarily gave up his frontrunner position. The iron-faced guard behind him waved his hand, and large groups of guards began attacking the Fire Dragon Lizard.
This was a virtual space, so there was no need to worry about the dangers of death. Almost all the guards were fearless and charged forward one after another.
As soon as the Fire Dragon Lizard appeared, it spewed deep green flames from its mouth!
Galaxy Beasts at the World King level already have such firepower.
Massive losses were suffered by the guards in a short time, with hundreds of them dying in the flames, turning into starlight and vanishing.
However, these well-trained elite guards were not pushovers. Each of their Star Power was above 100,000. They had trained together for years, and their cooperation was even more in sync.
Under the iron-faced guard’s command, they split into small squads, not giving the Fire Dragon Lizard a chance to slaughter them on a large scale. They engaged in a war of attrition with the Fire Dragon Lizard, which had almost no weaknesses.
As guards died here, others would attack the Fire Dragon Lizard from several other directions.
From high spirits to exhaustion, from exhaustion to injury, from injury to severe wounds.
Thousands of martial artists had sacrificed their lives in succession, but in the end, the Fire Dragon Lizard eventually succumbed to the war of attrition, growing weaker and weaker until it could no longer move.
After another few dozen lives were sacrificed to test it, they discovered that the Fire Dragon Lizard no longer had the ability to resist.
“Crown Prince, it’s your turn now.”
Starting with 10,000 people, now there were less than 2,000 left.
Mu Huaiyu stepped forward, ending the life of the Fire Dragon Lizard with a long sword, and recorded a video.
“Great! I’ve killed a World King-level Galaxy Beast. Not only can I win first place this time, but I can also get the reward from the Dimensional Universe company! I can finally go to the Alchemist Guild for special training! The special training quota must be mine!”
“Congratulations, Crown Prince. But we’d better hurry up. You see, the person called Lin Zhen has already entered the top 50,000!”
“Split half of our people to stay here. You must take down Lin Zhen. The other half will come with me and escort me through the ninth level!”
“Yes~!”
The guards responded in unison and immediately began executing the order.
