Amidst the twisting light, Lin Zhen wears divine armor, treading in mid-air, preparing to ascend to the supreme throne!
Reborn after a thousand years, he finally achieved his dream and made it this far.
Countless mighty beings from numerous races of the universe submit at his feet, heavenly flowers raining down and azure lotuses springing up all around, with billions of people calling out in praise of Emperor Lin Zhen.
âYour Majesty, please ascend the throne!â
A warrior of the Longevity Realm smiles at Lin Zhen with a somewhat blurred face, seemingly Zhuiyue.
Lin Zhen stops in front of the steps leading to the throne, his feet seemingly uncontrollable.
Is this real? Is this real?
How long has it been? Has the step he longed for in his heart been reached just like this?
Lin Zhen couldnât quite believe it, but everything in front of him was just too real.
Facing this peak position in the universe, itâs hard for any cultivator to resist such temptation.
âYour Majesty, please ascend the throne!â
Countless people below let out deafening cheers, including many familiar faces Lin Zhen recognizes. All the people he had encountered in his life, whether good or bad, friends, enemies, or relatives, were all smiling at him.
âDaddy, daddy! Go up and take a seat.â
The young Meiâer is shouting for her father, with a playmate next to her.
Ah, thatâs Yaya, who once saved him at the Bai Yulan. Are she and Meiâer good friends now?
âSon, come on, how long have you been waiting for this day?â
Lin Liye and Li Qin smile and wave from above.
âDad, mom.â Lin Zhen unconsciously utters, somewhat unsure of what choice to make.
âHusband, come on, after finishing the coronation ceremony we have to go home.â Su Mingyue and An Ning sweetly greet Lin Zhen hand in hand, still possessing the looks of young girls despite already being mothers.
âGo home⦠I need to go homeâ¦â Lin Zhen feels a bit dazed.
âThatâs right. Your Little Phoenix is still waiting for you to marry her after you ascend the throne. Donât you miss her?â
Above the void, Feng Qingluan wears a fiery red dress, her hair cascading like a waterfall, with an alluring and soul-stirring smile as she glances at Lin Zhen.
Finally, Lin Zhenâs steps become uncontrollable, walking towards the throne, one step at a time, approaching the peak.
As he passes by, countless people prostrate before him, shouting âEmperor!â
The sight of so many people prostrating at once is beyond comprehension unless you see it for yourself.
Arriving at the throne, Lin Zhen turns around, facing the countless races of the universe, raising his arms high in the air.
In the sky above, on the ground below, and in the ocean depths, a myriad of different races gathers together, extending to the horizon. Waiting for Lin Zhen to raise his arms, all the noise suddenly disappears, anticipating the emperorâs speech.
âMartial artists⦠To reach the peak, rely on their own two feet â one step at a time. There is no other way.â
Lin Zhen gazes left and right, speaking to a side warrior of the Longevity Realm whose face is slightly blurred: âIs this position supreme?â
The Longevity Warrior lowers his head: âYes, Your Majesty. Once you sit on this position, you will be the one and only king of the entire universe, the Original World, and the New World.â
âOh, since itâs so amazing here, may I invite you to have a sit?â
âNo, no, Your Majesty, this is your position. If others try to sit on it, they will be executed.â
âSince I am the Emperor, what I say counts! If I tell you to sit, then sit. Otherwise, I will execute you first!â
The Longevity Warrior hesitates for a moment, and Lin Zhen suddenly makes a lightning-quick move, pressing him onto the seat!
Countless venomous snakes immediately crawl out from the throne, tightly binding him and then opening their mouths wide to bite.
However, they all stop halfway. The Longevity Realm warriorâs face darkens: âHow did you discover the flaw?â
âDo you take me for a fool? Itâs understandable that the others might appear, but Yaya has been dead for many years, how could she be alive and well in front of me? As soon as I saw her, I was surprised for a moment and then became sober!â
âThat was my carelessness, but it doesnât mean youâve won!â
âIt doesnât mean youâve won either. Die!â
Lin Zhen raises his hand, and the Yin-Yang Spear collapses, striking directly at this Longevity Realm warrior.
The space in front of him shatters piece by piece, and everything disappears.
Then, dust floats in the air, and a ghostly chime echoes through the mountains.
Lin Zhen arrives in front of a temple, facing the lofty Buddha above, like a mere ant.
A young monk puts his hands together: âPatron, please offer some incense if you want to worship the Buddha.â
Another young monk holds the incense candle in front of Lin Zhen, waiting for him to reach out and take it.
âBoundless suffering lies ahead and the shore is behind you. Abandon murder and you will attain Buddhahood instantly. Patron, you have committed many heinous acts. Without sincere repentance, you are bound to end up in the hellish abyss, never to be reborn!â
Lin Zhen lifts his head: âIs the hellish abyss terrifying?â
âArrogant!â
The young monk shouts angrily, and before he can act, Lin Zhen has already struck him down.
âTrying to scare me with tricks and superstitions?!â
Swinging the spear around, the Buddha Hall crumbles with a loud rumble.
However, the Buddha inside the hall ascends to the sky, hanging high above like a gigantic planet.
A massive golden palm pressed down from the void, carrying an unstoppable force, pushing away the clouds and bearing down.
âHahaha~~! The world of martial artists has no gods or Buddhas, only the strong. Even if you are the Buddha, you are merely a powerful martial artist. I want to see what your ultimate move can do to me!â
Lin Zhen held his spear and soared into the sky, boldly confronting the palm that was larger than the Asian Continent.
It was like a moth rushing towards the flame.
Despite the seemingly vast disparity between the two, Lin Zhen shattered the giant divine palm with ease, and the Buddhaâs golden body perished!
As one Buddha was destroyed, countless Buddhas appeared in the sky.
âBold Lin Zhen, how dare you blaspheme the deity! But the Buddha has an unsurpassed Dharma body. If you kill one, two will appear, and if you kill ten thousand, twenty thousand will appear. How many can you kill! Just surrender!â
âIf I can kill one of you, I can kill a hundred thousand of you. Bring as many as you want, letâs see if your power reaches the level of a deity!â
Using the Yin-Yang Spear as an arrowhead, he soared into the sky once more, plunging into the endless Buddha Realm.
As his spear struck, a scream resounded, followed by another change.
Boom!
Before his eyes, the scene of heavenly flowers raining down and the Buddha Realm disappeared. The golden dust scattered, and Lin Zhen had arrived in the middle of a market.
âThis place⦠Why does it feel like Earth in the ancient times of the Earth Calendar? Da Tang? Han Dynasty? Or Spring and Autumn Period?â
As Lin Zhen was puzzled, a little girlâs soft voice sounded.
âBig brother, can you give us some money? My mother is starving to death.â
Lin Zhen looked down at the little girl, who had delicate features and a pair of large doe-like eyes, making her look very adorable.
âWho are you? Are you very hungry?â
âMmm⦠But, big brother, you donât have to worry about me. Niu Niu doesnât need to eat, as long as you can give my mother some money or food.â
The sensible appearance of the little girl made people feel heartbroken, and Lin Zhen also felt a wave of sorrow. He crouched down in front of the little girl.
He reached into his bosom and pulled out a silver ingot.
Although Lin Zhen didnât know why he should spend the silver, he still handed it out.
âNiu Niu, take this back to your mother to buy some food, okay?â
âThank you, big brother! Youâre such a good person!â
Lin Zhen gave a bitter smile, watching the little girl reach out to take his silver.
âWait, whatâs your motherâs name? Shall I find a doctor for her?â Lin Zhen suddenly asked.
âMom⦠Momâs name is Kalina.â
Lin Zhenâs hand with the silver ingot suddenly shrank back, and then he lightning-fast grabbed the little girlâs delicate neck.
âBig brother, what are you doing?â The little girl was about to cry.
âNothing, just sending you to see your mom!â
With a single-handed exertion, the little girlâs neck was snapped, and she died miserably on the spot!
âAhh~~~!!â
The screen trembled for a while, and a shrill scream followed. A young woman stumbled over, holding the little girlâs body, pointing at Lin Zhen and said, âYou butcher! You profiteer! Niu Niu is only four years old. Why did you kill her? Why?â
People gathered around, accusing Lin Zhen. Some even picked up stones to hit him.
Lin Zhen stood up, and without a word, his spear trembled, killing everyone in the market one by one.
Finally, the little girlâs mother, a woman of considerable beauty, was also stabbed to death by Lin Zhen.
The screen trembled again, and the space finally collapsed.
A black and red monster finally fell from the sky, landing heavily in front of Lin Zhen.
âThe last Galaxy Beast in the tower, Mirage.â
Lin Zhen held the Yin-Yang Spear and approached the monster.
The monster wasnât big, resembling a dog in size and had a human-like appearance. It was severely injured.
âI donât believe it. How could you not be tempted? Donât you have any weaknesses?â
âYour Mirage technique is indeed astonishing, but itâs a pity that you exposed a flaw the first time you used it. After that, I was cautious and used all my spiritual power to protect my brain, so I could always see the flaws in your Mirage.â
âThe second time, you used a sky full of gods and Buddhas to suppress me, but you forgot, how can martial artists be suppressed by others!â
âThe third time, you used the sympathy of a little girl to move me. Unfortunately, that cheap sympathy, I lost it completely countless years ago!â
âAnd the most important thing is that during your repeated attempts, my spiritual power has reached the 100% complete realm of Cui Mang, without a single flaw. How can you deceive me!â
Every time Mirageâs methods failed, it would be attacked by Lin Zhen. After several attempts, it had no strength left.
After Lin Zhen finished speaking, his spear fell, killing Mirage with a single thrust!
After killing Mirage, a flash of light appeared in front of his eyes, and the door leading outside the tower had already appeared.
Next to Lin Zhen, Mu Huaiyu seemed to have just woken up from his dilemma.
Lin Zhen kicked Mu Huaiyu aside and strode out the door.
This time, he finally ranked first in the Guest Disciple Trial!
