Chapter 497: 497: The Second War of the Star System Stage

If the Mesozoic Era was on Earth, strictly speaking, it would be a season of the Evident Universe.

However, in the Dark Star World, the Mesozoic Era is a new age, and by this time, the Dark Star World had acquired the conditions to nurture animals.

The mountains and rivers had become relatively more stable, and besides numerous hurricanes, tsunamis, and volcanoes, the continental plates gradually ceased drifting.

As for Lin Zhen, the most significant change was the enhancement of Star Power.

The Star Power of the Mesozoic Era was twice that of the Evident Universe. If Lin Zhen previously had 500 Star Power, with the Dark Star occupying 200, then upon entering the Mesozoic Era, Lin Zhen now had 700 Star Power, with the Dark Star taking up 400, officially surpassing the Star Power of the Constant Star Stage.

This was the benefit of elevating one’s Realm. This unprecedented Dark Star brought immense help to Lin Zhen.

Starlight overflowed from all directions, making Lin Zhen himself emit light, illuminating the interior of the spaceship.

“That’s a massive increase in power! Advancing to a higher Realm is amazing. It elevated my Star Power to 700 immediately. Now, I have surpassed a general Star System Level 1 and am on par with Star System Level 2!”

“Sun Hao only has 800 Star Power, so I can definitely put up a fight against him.”

As his body continued stabilizing his Realm in the spaceship cabin, the spaceship sailed toward the Garbage Star.

“Feng Qingluan, you can’t escape anymore. Just surrender obediently!”

Amidst the jumble of rocks, a dazzling red figure was rapidly speeding along.

Feng Qingluan’s stunningly beautiful face was as cold as ice, her red clothes slightly damaged. The beautiful wings on her back were flapping anxiously, but the numerous injuries on her body were noticeably affecting her speed already.

Behind her, eight Insect Clan Martial Artists were in hot pursuit, two of whom had reached Star System Level 7!

One male Martial Artist had several arms – he was the Commander of the Centipede Clan.

One female Martial Artist had six arms on her back, looking both charming and evil – she was the Commander of the Spider Clan.

Behind them were six more Star System Stage Martial Artists. They were the top experts among the 108 Insect Generals.

Such a formidable team was enough to run amok in the Chaotic Star River.

These Insect Clan Martial Artists advanced in a net-like formation, finally cornering Feng Qingluan on an irregularly shaped meteorite.

Feng Qingluan leaned against a boulder, her chest heaving. With eight Star System Stage warriors surrounding her, she showed no fear. Her eyes were as cold as frost, revealing no emotional fluctuations.

“Applause~!”

The Centipede Commander clapped with his many arms, making it seem as if a crowd was applauding.

“No wonder you’re Feng Qingluan, the newly minted gang leader of Fire Kirin. This unruffled demeanor is impressive, even for a man.”

Feng Qingluan snorted coldly: “What is there to fear about you?”

“Hehe! Boss Qingluan, you still don’t know much about our Insect Clan, do you? The warriors of our centipede clan can’t contain themselves if they don’t copulate with a woman every day. Especially me, my prowess and endurance on the bed is beyond your imagination. You always have this icy face, but don’t you know how beautiful you are? I’ve been looking forward to this day for a long time. Since I first saw you, I’ve been thinking about your appearance, rubbing it a few times a day, or I can’t sleep. Hahaha!”

The Spider Commander beside him showed a jealous expression: “Enough already. You get all wobbly-legged at the sight of a beautiful woman. Don’t I accompany you every day?”

The Centipede Commander smirked: “Don’t I get to change my taste? You don’t know when Feng Qingluan first arrived at Fire Kirin, she was hailed as the number one beauty of that Empire. There are so many people who covet her! If not for her ruthless methods and having the Mixed World King covering for her, she would have been devoured till nothing was left. Today, I’ve got this great opportunity, and it’s a blessing from heaven. You’ll keep watch for me later, and after I succeed, I’ll make sure to satisfy you.”

“Later, let me suck her dry and see if I can grow into her appearance.” The Spider Commander stared at Feng Qingluan’s injured yet still captivating figure, wanting to peel her beautiful skin off and put it on herself.

If it were an ordinary woman, hearing the vile words of the Centipede and Spider Commanders would have terrified her out of her wits, but not Feng Qingluan.

“Want such an opportunity? Then tell me how you locked onto my location and who provided you with information.”

“Hehe, beauty, are you trying to trick me into talking? I can only tell you that the information came from inside your group, but as for who…you’ll never be able to guess. If you serve me well in bed, I’ll consider revealing a little news to you!”

Feng Qingluan glanced at him: “You’re unworthy!”

The Centipede Commander’s face changed at her disdain: “How ungrateful! I never intended to be gentle with you anyway. At this point, whether you agree or not, you’ll have to comply. Let’s go!”

He, the Spider Commander, and the other six Star System Stage Martial Artists launched their attacks together. Their thunderous assault bore down on Feng Qingluan.

All the hands of the Centipede Commander attacked at once, leaving no room for escape!

Meanwhile, the Spider Commander launched a white silk thread that quickly solidified into a large net, blocking all escape routes for Feng Qingluan.

Burning Sky Fire!

Confronting the frenzied attack, Feng Qingluan raised her eyebrow, and blazing white flames enveloped the meteorite!

“Be careful! This little bitch still has the power to counterattack!”

The Spider Commander exclaimed, but it was too late. The six Star System Stage experts were engulfed by the fireball and evaporated instantly!

Due to their close proximity, the Centipede Commander was also hit by Feng Qingluan’s counterattack. A stream of fire, controlled by Feng Qingluan, covered his crotch area.

“Ahhh~! My little brother~!!”

The Centipede Commander used all his hands to extinguish the fire around his groin, exhausting himself. The fire managed to burn a black hole between his legs.

“You won’t need to worry about it anymore. Just play with air tonight!”

Feng Qingluan’s pretty face was pale, but she still left a sarcastic remark. Her damaged red dress exposed her snow-white back, and a golden phoenix came to life on her shoulder.

Burning Sky Fire gathered again, burning a hole through the Spider Queen’s web. As Feng Qingluan’s delicate body took flight and quickly broke free!

“Damn it! Chase her! That’s her life-fire, her last resort. As long as we catch her, she won’t have any ability to counterattack. Even a child could kill her.”

The Centipede Commander’s lower body was severely injured. Although it could recover, it would take a long time. He hated Feng Qingluan with a passion.

Spider Commander also followed the Centipede Commander in pursuit, but when Feng Qingluan unleashed her fire, her colorful wings beat rapidly, increasing her speed. She transformed into a streak of light and disappeared deep into the vastness of the starry sky under their watchful gaze.

“Damn it! She got away!”

“She can’t get far. She’s in no condition to continue fighting. As long as we find her…ouch, I better go back and heal. Feng Qingluan, you better pray you don’t fall into my hands, or I’ll make you wish you were dead!”

“Here they come~!”

Lin Zhen’s clone opened his eyes on a dilapidated metal satellite.

In the distant horizon, the ships were already flying over.

His real body piloted the ship, hovered in the air for a moment, and then landed on Garbage Star.

The clone immediately went to meet his counterpart, standing together, ready to fight side by side.

As they took their positions, several ships arrived in succession.

Lin Zhen stood on the ground and suddenly reached out to the sky, causing a gravitational eruption!

Two Martial Artists on the ships, eager to kill Lin Zhen, flew too fast and were unprepared for this. The ships’ speed combined with gravity caused the ships to suddenly accelerate and crashed straight into the ground!

Boom! Two massive fireballs rose into the sky. Most people on the ships died in the impact explosion without even leaving the vessels.

Two powerful figures covered in flames rushed out, only to be met by the prepared clone who effortlessly leaped thousands of meters into the air, wielding his Cliff Corner Spear.

Puff! Puff! Two Late Black Hole Stage opponents died on the spot.

About thirty people were chasing Lin Zhen, but in an instant, only a dozen remained.

Seeing this, two ships turned tail and ran. They came for money, but Lin Zhen was too fierce. This was not about making money but risking their lives.

Only Sun Hao’s ship stopped. Sun Hao came out of the ship early and dove down from the sky.

“Nicely done, Lin Zhen. I’ve always found those annoying flies buzzing around me irritating. Now it’s finally quiet,” he said as he slowly approached Lin Zhen, seemingly in a relaxed manner. “It seems you’ve chosen your burial ground well. This place is perfect—stinking to high heaven, just like you. Trash like you should be buried here. Ha-ha!”

Lin Zhen also laughed: “I agree. This place is perfect for my rise. As for you… well, just rest in peace here and witness my rise.”

“Dream on! I was careless seven months ago, letting you slip through my fingers. This time, you won’t have that chance.”

With that, Sun Hao took out his stick and said, “Lin Zhen, today you’ll witness the true power of a Star System Level 2. No matter how talented you are, the vast gap between realms can’t be filled with mere aptitude.”

“Let’s try it then!”

“Armorization!”

“Armorization!”

Both the real body and the clone armored up at the same time. Lin Zhen’s clone shook the Cliff Corner Spear and charged directly at Sun Hao.

Clang, clang, clang~!

The clone attacked with all its might, while the real body, wielding the Yin-Yang Spear, launched an attack from the side.

This time, when they clashed, Sun Hao immediately felt tremendous pressure!

Lin Zhen’s real body and clone attacked together, much stronger than the last time. They weren’t as desperate as before, but Sun Hao still felt overwhelmed.

The two long spears seemed like two large pythons circling in the air, occasionally revealing their giant fangs, forcing Sun Hao to retreat again and again!

“This… this is impossible! It’s only been a few months; what’s going on?”

Sun Hao’s eyes widened in disbelief, a bad feeling rising in his heart
