Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Destruction of the Star Realm! (Third Update)
Translator: 549690339
Lin Zhen had been planning this move for a long time, making Old John gradually lower his guard until it arrived.
Xiao Nuan was indeed a Galaxy Beast, but it had only been born a few days ago and only had the power of the early stage of the Star Core. Lin Zhen couldn’t let it recklessly face a Star Realm expert.
Only when Old John became less vigilant could Lin Zhen use Thunder Kill, with flying knives to restrain him. This flying knife was Lin Zhen’s Radiant Flying Knife, already fully infused, reaching the level of a top-quality Star Artifact, and even Old John, a Star Realm expert, had to take it seriously.
With the restriction of the flying knife, Old John didn’t have time to interrupt Lin Zhen’s teleportation, allowing Lin Zhen to smoothly execute Thunder Kill.
Of course, Old John could still dodge, this was when Xiao Nuan’s importance came into play, suddenly striking, biting Old John tightly, leaving him nowhere to dodge and forced to withstand Thunder Kill!
With the execution of Thunder Kill, a black spatial crack appeared again!
An attack creating a spatial crack meant the power of the Star Realm level. In other words, Lin Zhen’s Thunder Kill now possessed the attack power of the Star Realm!
A flash of light flickered on Old John’s body, and beneath him was a top-quality Star Artifact soft armor protecting him, blocking Lin Zhen’s Broken Jade spear tip.
Or rather, it blocked most of the damage, but a considerable amount of Thunder Kill’s energy still entered his body.
The spear tip left a nearly half-foot deep dent in the soft armor, which did not break, but the force of the impact was enough to seriously injure his insides!
The energy beam entered through this dent but didn’t burst out from the other side. Instead, the energy exploded inside his body!
“Ugh…!”
Old John groaned in pain, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
His body, every cell, was being ravaged by Thunder Kill, and the power of lightning made him almost paralyzed. There was also a chill that almost solidified his blood.
He couldn’t believe that he had been severely injured by a young man, a Seventh -level War God at that.
If other Star Realm experts knew about this, they would definitely laugh their teeth off.
“Ah! Lin Zhen, I’m gonna eat you alive!”
At this moment, Old John went crazy. As he was injured, the whip in his hand began to swing wildly. In his Dantian, a planet core emitting faint starlight revolved at high speed like a wounded beast counterattacking; he wanted revenge!
This injury was severe, and although the top-quality Star Artifact blocked most of the damage, it was enough to take him a long time to recover. He had to get his revenge, and he couldn’t lose face!
Starlight burst out, and the whip swung like crazy, first striking Lin Zhen away, followed by Xiao Nuan on the thigh.
Xiao Nuan was prepared and suddenly tore a large chunk of flesh from Old John, instantly running hundreds of meters away.
Lin Zhen brandished his spear in defense and stared intently at Old John. He could feel that Old John’s condition wasn’t as good as at the beginning. If it weren’t for the top-quality Star Artifact armor, Old John would already be dead.
Even so, his combat strength had been significantly reduced.
However, Lin Zhen still couldn’t fight him head-on when he was in such a desperate and mad state. The attack of a Star Realm expert was no joke, and Lin Zhen, who had been hit by two whips, was also injured.
Old John’s whip swung, creating heavy whip shadows within a hundred meters, and smoke and dust rose. The dead people around were torn into pieces of flesh and blood. Fortunately, the onlookers had run far away, or countless innocent people would have died horribly.
Lin Zhen displayed his immovable like a mountain tactic, and the Dark Star power within his body surged out. Although he was a Seventh-level War God, after many enhancements and the blessing of the Dark Star, his actual combat strength was no less than that of a quasi- Star Realm. As long as he delayed for a while, he might actually win this fight.
Old John couldn’t believe what he saw. Lin Zhen, a mere boy, was actually able to withstand his attack head-on. Although he was seriously injured now, how could a Seventh-level War God possibly do that?
“No! I absolutely can’t lose. I must find a weak point.”
He saw that Lin Zhen was just delaying time, waiting for his injuries to get worse. The only way now was to force Lin Zhen to fight a decisive battle with him.
Old John, a veteran of the battlefield, immediately discovered something he could exploit.
Attack An Ning!
Lin Zhen came from far away to save An Ning. As long as he attacked An Ning, Lin Zhen would be in great trouble.
An Ning was imprisoned on the fire execution pillar by his spiritual power, and also shackled with a top-quality Star Artifact chain. She was completely unable to move. If he attacked An Ning, what could Lin Zhen do?
Thinking of this, Old John suddenly swung the whip in his hand, no longer attacking Lin Zhen, who was like a rock in a cesspit, but struck at An Ning!
If this hit, An Ning would be done for.
“Xiao Nuan!”
Lin Zhen roared, launching a mental shock at Old John.
Old John’s spiritual power still surpassed Lin Zhen’s, but Lin Zhen chose to do it anyway.
Gathering all his spiritual power, Lin Zhen ignored the backlash and bombarded Old John with his full force!
Old John indeed fell for the trap and even staggered back a bit.
At this moment, Xiao Nuan rushed forward again, opening its mouth wide toward Old John.
Innate Devouring!
An overwhelming force surged towards them, and under the innate devouring, the surrounding space began to compress. As long as Old John couldn’t hold on, Xiao Nuan would swallow him whole.
Old John felt like he was going crazy. What kind of mutated beast was this? Its power was almost impossible to resist, and he felt his body being sucked in.
“Not good! I am seriously injured at the moment and can’t suppress this beast.
My only choice is to attack An Ning first and draw Lin Zhen closer.”
Old John finally used his ultimate move, releasing the Star Artifact whip in his hand. It wrapped around Xiao Nuan like a snake, forcing her to temporarily stop her innate devouring.
In that instant, Old John teleported!
All Star Realm experts could teleport, and Old John appeared next to An Ning.
A Star Artifact short knife appeared in his hand. “Blame Lin Zhen for this, An Ning. Farewell!”
Old John thrust the knife towards An Ning’s chest!
At the same time, Lin Zhen also teleported in front of An Ning.
All of this was within Old John’s expectations. He had already seen Lin Zhen’s
willingness to sacrifice himself for An Ning, and this strike was prepared for Lin Zhen!
His plan was very meticulous. The space between him and An Ning was narrow, so Lin Zhen’s Broken Jade Spear could not be wielded, thus his most feared Thunder Kill would not appear.
Within such a small space, he had top-quality Star Device Armor to protect himself, making it impossible for Lin Zhen to break his defense. However, his short knife could easily kill Lin Zhen.
But what he didn’t expect was that Lin Zhen also had a short knife, which he fiercely stabbed into Old John’s chest!
“Hahaha! Lin Zhen, you fool! My armor is a top-quality Celestial Device, your knife can’t pierce it even if it is also a top-quality Celestial Device. Die!”
A bizarre scene unfolded, where Lin Zhen protected An Ning with his knife aimed at Old John, and Old John also aimed his knife at Lin Zhen. Neither of them tried to dodge. This kind of close combat was rare in a high-level expert showdown.
Both were stabbed!
Old John’s knife first pierced through Lin Zhen’s temporary liquid metal armor, then his spiritual shield, and finally the high-grade Star Artifact soft armor he wore close to his body.
It pierced through his breastbone but stopped there, losing its force!
However, the golden-green short knife in Lin Zhen’s hand easily pierced through Old John’s top-quality Star Device Armor, with the blade sinking deep into his heart!
Both of them coughed up blood at almost the same time. Lin Zhen lowered his head but still stood, while Old John’s eyes gradually dimmed and lost their vitality, and his body slowly slid down.
“It’s impossible… It’s impossible… How could you pierce my armor? It’s made of top-quality star artifact…”
Lin Zhen made an effort to raise his head, pushing away Old John’s body which was about to fall on him. “Never be too confident. Don’t forget that there are miracles in this world.”
Old John finally fell, defeated by his arrogance, Lin Zhen’s formidable combat power and wisdom, Xiao Nuan’s unexpected emergence, and his faith in top-quality Celestial Devices.
However, the people around could not see the details of the fight clearly. They only saw the two attacking each other before Old John died, and Lin Zhen was seriously injured.
Staggering, Lin Zhen made his way to the fire execution pillar and swung his Seven Stars Knife, infused with golden energy, fiercely downward!
“Clang! ”
The top-quality Celestial Device chains were severed, and An Ning threw herself into Lin Zhen’s arms.
Her eyes were swollen from crying. Seeing Lin Zhen being stabbed in front of her, An Ning felt as if her heart had been ripped apart.
“Lin Zhen, you can’t die… You finally came to me, how can you just die like this? I don’t want you to die… *sob*…”
“Fool, of course I won’t die. But I can’t hold on much longer. Let’s go.”
The Black Ghost appeared nearby, and this time An Ning carried Lin Zhen and ran up to it. As they boarded the cockpit, Lin Zhen said to Xiao Nuan, “Xiao Nuan, let’s go!”
Just then, more City Defense Army planes flew nearby. With Lin Zhen down, they wanted to shoot down the Black Ghost.
But they didn’t expect the dog to fight back.
Opening her mouth, Xiao Nuan shot out molten orbs that were as fast as rapid-fire rocket launchers, instantly shooting down seven or eight Base City military aircraft and allowing the Black Ghost to safely ascend.
An Ning, holding Lin Zhen, boarded the Black Ghost. Just as it started, she saw Xiao Nuan with her big mouth open, a space ring hanging from each of her teeth, running up to Lin Zhen. She didn’t know when Xiao Nuan had collected them.
Lin Zhen smiled bitterly and patted Xiao Nuan’s head. “Great job. I’ll reward you with a big meal when we get home.”
Xiao Nuan squinted, wagging her tail with her tongue hanging out, showing none of the dignity of a Galaxy Beast.
“Let’s go home!” Lin Zhen closed his eyes, and the Black Ghost took off. In his heart, he thought that his injuries were severe, and he might not be able to participate in the War God’s Knockout this time.
Just as Lin Zhen left Paris, Shu Mingxuan finally chose his target at an ancient god relics site..
