Chapter 403: 403: Breakthrough! Star Realm!



Chapter 403: 403: Breakthrough! Star Realm!

The best way for him to drive Empire forces out of Earth was to become a lord himself.

According to the Empire’s laws, nobility could obtain territories as long as they pay a hefty fee.

A knight could claim a planet as territory, while a baron could be granted a small asteroid system.

The territory of a viscount is determined by star miles; the maximum range for a viscount’s territory is a side length of 100,000 star miles.

The territory of an earl is much larger, ranging from one million to ten million star miles in side length. If you pay less, you receive the minimum standard; if you are willing to pay a lot of money, then a side length of ten million star miles can be approved.

Ten million star miles is basically equivalent to one light-year.

Lin Zhen wanted to obtain the largest possible territory to drive these people out of his own territory. With Earth as the core and a side length of one light-year, the square area would be his territory, making it less simple for anyone to reach Earth.

Lin Zhen had never applied for territory before, so he followed Chris’s advice and went to the Imperial Government Office, which was responsible for territory applications.

“Hello, I want to apply for a territory,” said Lin Zhen, standing at the entrance and speaking to the guard.

A scanning light quickly passed over Lin Zhen, confirming his identity.

“Earl Lin Zhen, please come in.”

With a single flash, Lin Zhen was in the reception room, greeted by a knight staff member.

“Excuse me, Earl Lin Zhen, are you a local of the Solar System?”

“Yes, I was born and raised on Earth in the Solar System. Now that I have become a noble, according to the Empire’s customs, I can apply for my hometown to be my territory, right?”

“You are correct that there is such a custom; however, applying for a territory requires a fee to be paid.”

“How much is the fee?”

“I will calculate it for you. The fee is determined by several factors such as territory area, the number of planets, the number of valuable celestial bodies like life planets, resource planets, and wormholes in explored areas. It is quite complicated, so please wait a moment.”

Lin Zhen picked up the teacup on the table and slowly savored the tea. He had a feeling that applying for territory would not go smoothly.

About half an hour later, the staff member returned: “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting, Earl. The calculation is done. How large of a territory would you like to apply for?”

“A side length of one thousand star miles.”

“You will need to pay five trillion Tianhe coins.”

Lin Zhen rubbed his chin: “Five trillion…”

Purchasing a Trap Web cost a trillion, and acquiring territory would cost another five trillion. There was no clear way to obtain that much money.

“Well, apply for the territory first and I’ll figure out how to get the money. But the applications must be expedited.”

“This is not possible. When applying, you need to pay half the fee first as proof of your financial capacity.”

Lin Zhen glanced at the staff member: “Can it be approved immediately if I pay half the fee?”

The staff member hesitated and did not answer directly.

Lin Zhen smiled: “Sir Knight, would you please turn off the synchronous recording? I have a few words I’d like to say to you in private.”

The staff member hesitated for a moment but turned off the synchronous recording, leaving no records for anyone else to access during their conversation.

“Give me your account number, and I’ll give you a hundred million. Then, tell me the truth about my territory application and the troubles that lie within.”

The staff member thought for a moment and whispered a long string of numbers.

Lin Zhen immediately transferred the money, and the funds reached the account quickly.

“It’s like this, Earl Lin Zhen. Your territory is currently under dispute. Empire Earl Diana claims that her troops discovered the space where your hometown is located first and that she has the right to apply for it as well.”

“Doesn’t she have her own territory? She shouldn’t be able to apply again, right?”

“Yes, we have replied to her with the same. However, she has applied to postpone your application date by twenty days, and the duke in charge has approved it. Therefore, you cannot obtain the territory for the time being.”

Upon hearing the staff member’s words, Lin Zhen immediately realized the crux of the matter.

Diana was delaying for time, waiting for the arrival of the second group of assassins. Once Lin Zhen was killed at that point, she would have a legitimate reason to stay on Earth.

If Lin Zhen were to obtain the territory, he would be able to expel her.

The staff member continued: “You might not know this, but Miss Diana is a Gold Level Four-star Asura Warrior from the Asura Arena. The Empire needs to give her some consideration, and thus this matter… unless you can also advance to the Asura Warrior rank, then your application can be approved. Otherwise, there is no way.”

In his view, it would be impossible for Lin Zhen to obtain the territory in the short term. To enter the Asura Arena, one needs to have a Satellite Stage and win 1,000 matches with an over 80% win rate. It was out of the question for Lin Zhen, a Comet Level 9, to achieve this.

Furthermore, Diana was a Gold Level Four-star, proving that her Asura Arena victories numbered over 8,000 with a win rate of over 90%. Lin Zhen could not possibly reach this level in a short amount of time.

Now aware of the truth, Lin Zhen stood up and nodded to the staff member: “Thank you, I understand now.”

“I didn’t say anything.” The staff member smiled and rose to see him off.

After leaving the Dimensional Universe, Lin Zhen thought quietly to himself for a while.

If he wanted to have territory now, he needed to meet two conditions.

There are two ways, one is becoming an Asura Warrior, and the other is having a large amount of money.

Lin Zhen’s main body is currently breaking through on the Moon, and as long as he enters the Star Realm, his doppelganger can simultaneously enter the Satellite Stage, which would allow him to participate in the Asura Arena.

Acquiring the identity of an Asura Warrior allows for loans, as the Asura Arena belongs to the entire Sanjiang Star Domain Federation, so the loans are in Sanjiang Coins.

Silver One-Star Asuras can obtain loans of ten million Sanjiang Coins, Five Stars can obtain loans of fifty million, and the highest Nine Star Asuras can obtain loans of ninety million.

Gold One-Star Asuras can obtain loans of one hundred million Sanjiang Coins.

Red One-Star Asuras can obtain loans of one billion Sanjiang Coins.

And a Crowned Asura King can obtain loans of ten billion Sanjiang Coins!

Lin Zhen’s application for the territory and the purchase of the Trap Web requires at least six trillion Tianhe Coins, which is equivalent to six hundred million Sanjiang Coins.

“To get six hundred million Sanjiang Coins, I must at least reach Gold Six Star level in the Asura Arena. Every time I increase a star level requires double the victories, with one thousand victories for One Star and thirty-two thousand victories for Six Star. It’s impossible to achieve this in such a short time.”

“So what I need to strive for is to become a Red One-Star Asura, with a win rate of over ninety-five percent, and obtain at least one thousand victories.”

“In my previous life, I never participated in the Asura Arena, so I don’t know what level I will be considered once my doppelganger enters the Satellite Stage.”

“However, no matter what, I must reach Red One-Star Asura. Diana wants to prevent me from becoming the lord of this star domain, her calculations are excellent, but I cannot let her succeed.”

“Now it all depends on how far my main body can go with this critical breakthrough…”

Above the Moon, dark energy from the cosmos quickly converges onto Lin Zhen’s main body.

At this moment, Lin Zhen seems to be a funnel or vortex in the sea, absorbing the endless dark energy.

Inside the Dantian, the Qi vortex has become extremely powerful.

The center point begins to converge rapidly, with starlight flickering.

The Star Core is forming!

Lin Zhen’s Dantian Qi has already surpassed the critical point of breakthrough, and now he is experiencing an unstoppable eruption upon breaking through.

Seven types of elemental energy shine on Lin Zhen, and his Dantian Qi evolves swiftly.

All the power forms into a vast torrent at this moment.

The barrier preventing Lin Zhen from entering the Star Realm is like a thin film, which is instantly torn by the surging torrent!

Boom~~~!!!

With a sudden moment of clarity in his mind, Lin Zhen feels his vision expand in an instant.

His Dantian Qi expands and contracts twice before shrinking. The original Dantian Qi ocean begins to constantly expand outwards, transforming into a star-filled space.

The Dantian Qi then quickly contracts and solidifies, and the Star Core appears!

Unlike the physical Dark Star, the Dantian Star Core is a pure energy entity.

The Planet Core is born and quickly grows powerful!

In his previous life, Lin Zhen experienced the birth of a Star Core, but the strength back then was far less than it is now. This time, the Star Core had just appeared, and it had reached Star Core Level 3!

Moreover, the intense dark energy from the universe rushes in, causing Lin Zhen’s realm to surge continuously!

Star Core Level 4….

Star Core Level 5….

Star Core Level 6….!

The Dark Star spins madly, absorbing a massive amount of cosmic dark energy and funneling it into Lin Zhen’s Dantian.

This tremendous energy, combined with Lin Zhen’s previous accumulation, finally provides him with enough power.

From the promotion at Star Core Level 3, it gushes like a wellspring, continually soaring until it reaches Star Core Level 6!

Eventually, Lin Zhen’s Star Core stabilizes at the Sixth-level Peak.

Inside the Dantian Qi ocean, all the Dantian Qi has disappeared.

In its place is a vast, deep cosmic space, with a small star emitting a faint starlight at its core.

Don’t underestimate this little star. Lin Zhen’s Dantian Qi is condensed ten times, so his Star Power is ten times stronger than those who haven’t condensed it!

Even though he is at Star Core Level 6, he is the strongest Star Core Level 6!

Moreover, Lin Zhen’s trump card is the Dark Star. The Dark Star’s Comet Stage Star Power, combined with his main body’s strength, makes Lin Zhen’s current Star Power comparable to the Satellite Stage!

That is Lin Zhen’s true combat power.

After the breakthrough, Lin Zhen’s main body doesn’t move. Instead, he continues to sit there, stabilizing his realm and cultivating his domain power.

Although his main body is still cultivating, Lin Zhen’s doppelganger has once again entered the Dimensional Universe Space.

As the main body advances, Lin Zhen’s doppelganger’s realm soars as well, reaching Satellite Level 6.

He now qualifies to participate in the Asura Arena!
