Age of Evolution#

He employed the Holy Land Controlling Knife Skill, which was both elusive and mysterious in its attacks.

However, Lin Zhen didn’t have time to tangle with this Spiritual Mind Master. His spiritual power had just advanced to the Diamond Level. This stage posed no difficulty for him.

The realm of the Spiritual Mind Master was just at the Dark Gold Middle Stage. With a thought from Lin Zhen, his Divine Infant leaped out!

Upon seeing Lin Zhen activating his Divine Infant, the Spiritual Mind Master did the same to battle. However, he didn’t see Lin Zhen’s Divine Infant vibrate his long spear during the fight. The diamond long spear sparkled like a star, and with a single blow, it killed the Spiritual Mind Master’s Divine Infant!

The Mind Master screamed, his flying knives fell to the ground, and Lin Zhen quickly rushed towards him, thrusting his long spear directly through the opponent’s heart.

One second!

From start to finish, it only took one second for Lin Zhen to pass the first floor.

With a flash of light, Lin Zhen had automatically moved up the stairs, entering the second floor of the Thirty-Three Sky Tower.

On the second floor, he would face a Domain Warrior.

**********

Outside, the long-suppressed martial artists from the Falling Star Lake erupted into cheers. Lin Zhen’s performance was a delightful surprise.

Although most of the people present had already passed the first floor, none of them had done it as quickly as Lin Zhen—he had practically done it instantaneously!

A surprised expression appeared on Jin Nuo’s face. Lin Zhen’s performance had shocked him as well.

However, Zhang Lang and the others didn’t pay much attention. It was indeed impressive to pass the first floor with a single move, but a World King remained a World King, with limited potential. Lin Zhen would undoubtedly find the successive floors more challenging.

*********

The second floor of the Thirty-Three Sky Tower was called Taiming Yuwantian. Inside was a large arena.

Lin Zhen stepped onto the stage, and a giant ax-wielding warrior appeared before him, who was at the Peak of Three Flowers Early Stage.

The moment this warrior spotted Lin Zhen, he let out a roar, and a ripple reverberated through space—his domain was activated!

The domain was a Gravity Field. Paired with gravity, Lin Zhen immediately felt intensified pressure.

“Roar~!”

Swinging the giant ax, the warrior charged at Lin Zhen, howling like a mad beast. The ax tore the space as it descended.

“Galaxy Domain~!”

To counter a domain, one also needs a domain. Lin Zhen also had a domain. With a thought, his Galaxy Domain activated. The boundless starry sky unfolded, and one planet after another emerged.

The path of the giant ax warrior was instantly blocked by countless planets. Each planet exploded mid-air, and the resultant shockwaves forced the warrior to retreat continuously.

Lin Zhen didn’t want to waste time on the second floor either. He used the Shadowless Step to approach the warrior, his speed so fast it was dizzying, despite the gravity.

Shush, shush, shush~!

The warrior’s heavy ax missed several attacks on Lin Zhen. He used his Shadowless Step to get to the back of the opponent. With a backhand strike, the sword fiercely skewered through the opponent!

The sturdy ax warrior didn’t fall. Instead, he swung his ax back at Lin Zhen. Lin Zhen’s Shadowless Step brought him to the front of the warrior again. With a second sword slash, he decapitated the antagonist!

The ax warrior fell backward, and Lin Zhen ascended to the third floor.

For the second floor, Lin Zhen took three seconds!

This result once again shocked the martial artists. If passing the first floor quickly was understandable, then getting through the second floor, where the giant ax domain warrior was immune to mental shocks, should not be as easy. For Lin Zhen to end the fight in three seconds, it was sufficient proof of his vast strength and capabilities.

*********

“Lin Zhen’s score should place him almost among the top ten on the leaderboard, right?”

“Not just the top ten, he could even make it into the top three. I can’t believe there’s anyone else who can defeat a realm warrior in one or two seconds.”

“Impressive. I used to doubt Lin Zhen, but now I haven’t even been able to pass the second level, and yet he passed it in three seconds. The gap between us is as distant as heaven and earth.”

“He is just a World King right now. If he advances to the Longevity stage, I can’t even imagine how far he can go.”

Because Lin Zhen was the last one to appear, everyone’s attention was focused here. His rapid clearance attracted the full attention of the Four Great Holy Lands.

Those who thought they had the victory in their hands, their faces became solemn at this moment.

*********

In Twin Trees Garden, Feng Qingluan was standing under the Pasuo Tree, with a girl named Zhou Zimei by her side. Feng Qingluan was currently ranked fourth, while Zhou Zimei was fifth.

Under the Twin Trees, a bald martial artist in a coarse linen robe was seated, with his eyes slightly closed.

Zhou Zimei asked Feng Qingluan, “Qingluan, is Lin Zhen your boyfriend?”

Feng Qingluan nodded slightly: “He is my lover.”

“He’s doing well, right? One second over the first level, three seconds over the second level, I was worried about what kind of man could be worthy of you. Now it seems that I don’t need to worry. You can have your perfect match.”

Feng Qingluan’s cheeks warmed slightly. She had seen Lin Zhen once on the Divine Punishment Star and had always wanted to talk to him more, but never got the chance. She missed him dearly.

The millennium promise was soon approaching. She was about to meet him.

But the appearance of the Crown Princess of Nan Liang stimulated Feng Qingluan and made her determined to join the Holy Land first instead of meeting Lin Zhen. Ning Qingxuan’s excellence made Feng Qingluan, as a fellow woman, feel the crisis.

She did not want to lose to anyone, especially women.

At this time, the bald martial artist seated under the Twin Trees suddenly said, “Qingluan, wanting to get married might not be easy for you. I see that the Fourth Mistress has the intention of cultivating you. Perhaps you will become the Fifth Mistress of Twin Trees Garden in the future.”

Feng Qingluan’s face changed: “Why me? I think Brother Moses you are more likely to. You just took the first place.”

The bald martial artist was Moses, who was currently the number one overall. He had a calm demeanor and a friendly smile: “Although I have taken the first place, don’t forget Qingluan, I have been at the Three Flowers Peak for countless years, while you, a mutated phoenix, have the talent and potential that is unparalleled in the entire Twin Trees Garden. If you reach the Three Flowers Peak, apart from a few staying behind in the Four Great Holy Lands, no one will be your opponent. So, you are definitely more suitable than me.”

Feng Qingluan remained silent. The Fourth Mistress of Twin Trees Garden, Fang Fei, valued her greatly. Especially after discovering that she was a mutated phoenix, Fang Fei spent a lot of money to get another advanced divine body for her that perfectly matched her own.

Dual Divine Bodies, Mutated Phoenix, Feng Qingluan’s talent was terrifying.

Although Moses was currently the number one among the younger generation in Twin Trees Garden, when considering the future, Feng Qingluan was the one to look at.

Seeing Feng Qingluan’s expression, Moses just smiled lightly: “Our junior sister perhaps is still holding on to Lin Zhen. In my opinion, Lin Zhen might inherit Falling Star Lake in the future. You two wanting to be together will be difficult!”

At this moment, Zhou Zimei said, “Could Lin Zhen possibly defeat Brother Moses and take the first place overall?”

Moses closed his eyes slightly, clinching a treasure vase seal in his palm: “If he can really defeat me and as long as he doesn’t make any mistakes, the inheritance of Falling Star Lake is almost a sure thing. Looking at it now, there might be hope.”

Zhou Zimei was a little unconvinced: “But Brother Moses, it seemed you didn’t give it your all.”

Moses shook his head slightly: “Does it matter if I did my best or not? Lin Zhen, he… is just a World King.”

*********

The third level of the Three Three Sky Tower is called “Qingming He Tongtian”, and the guardian of this level is the Galaxy Beast.

Lin Zhen was surprised to find that the Galaxy Beast he was facing on the third level was a Fire Kirin.

If it were another Galaxy Beast, Lin Zhen’s fight might be a bit more challenging. But if it was a Kirin, there would be no problem at all.

Armorization, clad in gold, and then Kylin Decides.

No matter what tactics the opponent had, it would be kept in check. With his solid defense, Lin Zhen defeated the Galaxy Beast across from him without any harm and successfully entered the fourth level.

Although this level took relatively more time, a full five minutes, it posed no difficulty for Lin Zhen.

The fourth level was called “Xuantai Pingyu Tian”, and the guardian was the Elemental War God.

The Elemental War God refers to warriors who have nurtured the power of elements to the extreme and also have very strong melee combat capabilities.

However, the damage of elemental power against Lin Zhen was still limited as Lin Zhen had a high resistance to elemental energy due to his proficiency in all types of elements.

The threat of elements was lessened, so it was easy for Lin Zhen to pass this level. Using Sword Gang, continuous Death Sword Skills, and Constant Star Fall, he killed the Elemental War God.

The five minutes spent on the third level made people think that Lin Zhen might not be able to achieve a good score, but to their surprise, he created miracles again on the fourth level — ending the battle in twenty seconds!

After passing the fourth level and moving on to the fifth level, he faced a super swordsman.

This fight was relatively challenging as the super swordsman had no obvious weaknesses, superb sword skills, immune to mental shocks, resistance to elemental powers, and strong melee combat abilities.

Lin Zhen took ten minutes to pass this level, eventually overcoming it with a narrow victory thanks to the Shadowless Step.

After breezing through five levels, Lin Zhen was about to face a mini-BOSS, the Heavenly Lord!

The Heavenly Lord was a Galaxy Beast proficient in domain, spiritual power, elemental power, and with peerless melee combat abilities. His strength could be compared to the combination of the previous five levels, and his realm reached the peak of the Three Flowers.

As long as he could pass this level, Lin Zhen would definitely make it into the top ten of the overall ranking, fulfilling Jin Nuo’s task!
