Chapter 284: 284: Conquest and Harvest (Third Update)

Even the martial artists who had supported Lin Zhen before did not think that he could defeat Li Yao in a head-on confrontation, as Lin Zhen had always shown superior skill. After all, with a lower realm, it was understandable that he had less physical strength.

But this head-on confrontation left everyone speechless. There was no room for any tricks here: the strong were strong, and the weak were weak. Li Yao had not an ounce of temper left in defeat.

Lin Zhen didn’t stop after this successful strike. Although Li Yao was completely defeated, he didn’t want to let up.

With a flap of his Lightning Wings, Lin Zhen descended from the sky and landed in the mud. He first glanced around: “Have you all seen enough? If so, you can leave!”

Hearing Lin Zhen’s cold words, the surrounding martial artists shuddered and dared not say anything to him, running away faster than rabbits.

But they were all excited, as this news must be spread. It was a perfect time to go out and recuperate. This battle would definitely cause a sensation worldwide.

Watching the surrounding martial artists flee, Lin Zhen looked down and picked up the seriously injured Li Yao with one hand.

The Thunder Kill’s power was initially enough to be lethal, but after clashing with Li Yao’s Sword River, most of its power had disappeared. It was then blocked by Li Yao’s top-quality Star Device Armor, and it didn’t kill Li Yao.

In theory, Li Yao should still have the strength to stand up. However, in Lin Zhen’s eyes, Li Yao’s eyes were empty, murmuring words like “impossible,” as if his spirit had been greatly stimulated.

Lin Zhen could understand Li Yao’s feelings at this moment. A Star Realm Expert, blasted into the same pit by a War God three times in a row, and finally lost in a direct comparison of strength. The mental blow was simply overwhelming.

That Li Yao didn’t collapse into madness on the spot was a testament to his fortitude.

However, it was almost over. Even if Lin Zhen killed Li Yao now, he probably wouldn’t want to resist.

But Lin Zhen didn’t intend to kill Li Yao immediately. First, he tore off Li Yao’s mental defense Star Artifact and stared intently at him, his Spiritual Power silently seeping out.

“Look at me! Look into my eyes!”

Like being under a spell, Li Yao involuntarily cast his gaze on Lin Zhen, feeling as if Lin Zhen’s eyes contained an endless starry sky, with nebulae changing, spacetime vanishing, and him being somewhat drawn into it.

“You will listen to me. Everything you did before was wrong. From now on, you will be completely loyal to me and never betray me…”

As Lin Zhen spoke, Li Yao repeated after him. Gradually, Lin Zhen’s Spiritual Power extended into Li Yao’s soul, forming a spiritual restraint. The Soul Lock had taken effect!

In the past, it would have been impossible for Lin Zhen to perform Soul Lock on a Star Realm Expert like Li Yao. Not to mention that Li Yao had a Star

Artifact to defend him, but he was also a late-stage Dark Gold Spiritual Mind Master. It wasn’t easy to break Li Yao’s willpower.

But this moment was different. Li Yao was utterly despondent, his willpower almost collapsing. With his Star Artifact torn off by Lin Zhen, he had no resistance left. Naturally, Lin Zhen could easily succeed.

With the Soul Lock completed, Lin Zhen stood up and looked at Li Yao: “You should be able to heal yourself.”

Star Realm Experts had the ability to heal themselves and recover from injuries with their Star Power. Although it wasn’t as useful as Lin Zhen’s Light Power, it was still rather fast.

Li Yao was no exception. He immediately nodded, stood up, and said to Lin Zhen, “Young Master, my injuries are not serious. I should recover after resting for ten days or so.”

Lin Zhen had Li Yao call him ‘Young Master’ instead of ‘Master,’ as it sounded too abrupt.

Lin Zhen nodded slightly, “That’s good. In that case, you don’t need to stay in Ancient God City any longer. You can leave now, dissolve the Wan Hao Group, give your son and daughter-in-law a sum of money to let them go far away, and then stay at my house as a steward. Your task will be to protect my parents’ safety.”

“Please rest assured, Young Master, as long as I am here, no enemy will dare harm your father and mother.”

Li Yao spoke with determination in his eyes. Those who have been Soul Locked would be completely loyal to their master, but be no different in any other aspect. They could still cultivate and advance, and their intelligence wouldn’t decrease at all.

Li Yao even said self-mockingly, “I was really blinded by my own greed before, actually harboring intentions to harm the Young Master. Now when I think about it, I really want to smack myself a few times. From now on, the Young Master can just watch my performance. ”

“Hmm, you just need to do well.”

“Young Master, rest assured. Not only will I arrange everything at home properly, but I will also teach martial arts to your father and mother, helping them make a breakthrough as soon as possible.” Li Yao promised confidently.

For a Star Realm Expert like him, teaching Lin Liye and Li Qin was an extremely simple task.

“Alright, do you know about the situation on the second level?” Lin Zhen asked a question.

“Young Master, I’ve been to the second floor once, and the worst teams there are all at the brink of Star Realm. They can only manage to deal with small alien beasts on the outskirts, because the weakest alien beasts there are

S-level, with plenty of quasi-SS-level ones, and even some at SS-level. Martial

Artists like me form the main force on the second floor.”

“How does your strength fare on the second floor?”

Li Yao shook his head somewhat awkwardly: “It’s hard to make a living there; there are too many experts, and my Star Realm strength is not that strong. There are many who surpass me, and, Young Master, you must be careful about one thing: Although the Ancient God City hasn’t been open for long, there are already two overlord-level figures on the second floor. One is called

Luo Yun and he’s from Hua Xia; the other is called Arthur, the European Union War God. He has a lower grade auxiliary-type Sacred artifact, a pocket. That pocket can continually devour someone’s Star Power or Dantian Qi. Those two have their own territories on the second floor, and basically anyone trying to make a living there has to attach themselves to one of them in order to survive. If you want to go alone, there’s a risk of being suppressed by them.”

“Luo Yun, Arthur, are they experts of the Star List?”

“Yes, both of these two are on the Meteor Star List. Although their rankings are low, their strength is far beyond my reach. The gap between those on the list and those not in the Star Realm is too wide.”

“Aren’t they all in the Star Realm? Can there be such a big difference?” Lin Zhen asked.

“Young Master, not all Star Realms are the same. Star Realm is just a general term, and it is divided into three stages: Star Core Period, Meteor Stage, and Comet Stage. These are the so-called three layers of the Star Realm. My Star

Realm level is only in the early Star Core stage and belongs to the bottom of the

Star Realm. But those experts on the list are different. Taking the Meteor Star

List as an example, to get on the list, one must at least be in the Late Star Core

Stage or even the Meteor Stage. Those who get on the list almost all have

Sacred artifacts. How can I compare to them?”

Lin Zhen nodded. He, of course, knew about the three layers of the Star Realm. In his previous life, he failed when trying to break through to the Meteor Stage, and he was reborn eventually.

“As for the Dark Star List, it’s even more formidable. One must be at least in the Meteor Stage to get on the list, and some of them even reach the Comet Stage. Their abilities are incredible, and that’s what’s called the Star Realm.” “There’s also the Heavenly Star List.” Lin Zhen added.

“Yes, there’s the Heavenly Star List, but I’ve never seen an expert of the Heavenly Star List. There are only eighteen of them, making it quite hard to come across.”

“What are the conditions needed to get on the Star List?”

“There are no specific conditions. The last-ranked person can challenge the top five. If the challenge is successful, they get on the list. Every Star Realm expert can see the changes in the Star List, although someone like me can only observe the changes in the Meteor Star List.”

“What if I successfully challenge someone? Can I, who is not a Martial Artist, also get on the list?”

This question stumped Li Yao. He had never considered whether a non-Star Realm person could get on the list or not. The key was that those who managed to get on the Star List had never been below the Star Realm before.

Lin Zhen laughed as he saw Li Yao couldn’t answer and, noticing his injured state, let Li Yao leave.

Before leaving, Li Yao warned Lin Zhen: “Young Master, you must be careful of Allen, the Great Divine Sect of Sofia Cathedral in Ice City. He is a Meteor List expert with a very strong strength. Your suggestion to build the city wall not only dismantled Wan Hao Group, but also Sofia Cathedral. He will not let this go easily.”

Thinking of Allen, Lin Zhen also felt a slight headache. There’s no doubt about the strength of Allen, and he had had some friction with him. It was Allen who had stopped Dongfang Jun when Li Tianhao went to take the initiative.

Later, Lin Zhen killed Tang Yu, and it’s estimated that Allen could probably guess that he was the one who did it.

Now, with the demolition of Sofia Cathedral, Allen’s hatred for him runs deep.

However, Lin Zhen couldn’t possibly go and seek peace with him. He was convinced of one thing: only when he became powerful could he face all challenges without fear.

After Li Yao left, Xiao Nuan came running back, having gotten rid of the two Tyrannosaurus. Now, she finally returned to Lin Zhen’s side.

Lin Zhen happily patted Xiao Nuan’s head. She seemed to have grown a little larger. Before, she was just slightly bigger than a pug, but now, she was almost the size of a half-grown wolfhound. Her red mane was growing more luxuriantly, and her fur glistened like golden casts.

After wagging its tail and snuggling with Lin Zhen for a while, Xiao Nuan opened its mouth, and there were three Space Rings hanging on its teeth. They came from Wu Hai, Chai Defu, and Warsaw.

It was only then that Lin Zhen remembered the matter of the spoils of war.

He quickly grabbed the three rings, and, in a flash, Xiao Nuan disappeared somewhere again. There were so many Earth Traveling Dragons nearby, she must have gone out to find food again.

Lin Zhen looked around to make sure no one else was there, and then headed to where the Hammer Dragon nest was before.

He opened all three of the Space Rings, and the contents poured out messily.

In addition to these, there were Zhang Zhen’s ring and the items he had captured from the Rage Dragon Beast’s lair when he used gravity. He took them all out at once.

In an instant, there were flashes of light everywhere. A pile of Star Artifacts, gems, coins, and other items lay before him, making Lin Zhen’s eyes dazzle.

“Heavens! This is a real fortune!”
