Age of Evolution#

*********

The Demon Clan arrived rapidly, the strides of their Hellhounds were so long that they spanned thousands of miles!

It hadn’t been long since the machine emitted the radio wave. He didn’t even know if anyone would come. He did it hoping to take revenge on Lin Zhen, not expecting to attract such a group.

When the Demon Clan appeared in his view, he didn’t have time to escape.

A gigantic Hellhound charged towards him. The machine, so engrossed in terror, momentarily forgot about its plan to die with Lin Zhen and turned to flee.

However, the Hellhound didn’t give him a chance to escape. One Hellhound lunged, capturing the machine in its maw!

The massive fangs clamped together, and sparks flew from the waist of the machine as the metal twisted. It looked like the machine would be shredded to pieces!

The machine felt no pain, but it knew if this continued, it would certainly be devoured by the Hellhound. In this critical moment, the machine cried out loudly, “You can’t kill me, I’m here to help you!”

“Stop!”

Inside the mobile palace, Jitilu casually raised his hand, and the Hellhound ceased its devouring action.

“Grrrr.”

The palace gate opened, and the Hellhound, with the machine clenched in its jaws, delivered it straight to the entrance.

The machine saw many human-like beings standing left and right within the palace, and a senior demon, who appeared very powerful, sat in the center.

“You just said you came to help us? Be clear. If there’s anything I’m dissatisfied with, you’ll be dog food!”

“Yes, yes, yes~!”

Seeing a glimmer of hope to stay alive, the machine’s previous courage to die with Lin Zhen had long flown away. “My lord, you are from the Endless Star Sea, correct?”

“Of course, have you ever seen such a mighty army on the surface of the Original World?” a human sneered at him.

The machine had even met this human before, who seemed to be a guard leader in the Qin Palace, though he didn’t understand why he was here.

Now was not the time to pursue these questions. The Machine urgently said, “Since you hail from the Endless Star Sea, I wonder if you’ve heard of Lin Zhen.”

“Lin Zhen! Which Lin Zhen are you talking about?” Jitilu seemed momentarily stunned, then abruptly stood from his seat. With a wave of his hand, the machine was pulled from the Hellhound’s mouth and laid in front of him.

The machine fell to the ground, twisted its neck and looked up, “Which Lin Zhen could I be talking about? Of course, Lin Zhen, who ousted Qin Jianfeng in the Divine Punishment Star, and unmasked the identities of the Imperial Qin family.”

“I know this Lin Zhen. What are you trying to say?” asked Jitilu.

“I’ve grown weary of life on the surface of the Original World. As long as you allow me to enter the Endless Star Sea, I can tell you Lin Zhen’s location. He’s nearby and might leave soon.”

Jitilu appeared unfazed, but his heart churned with excitement.

So, Lin Zhen was nearby. This was indeed excellent news.

The incident with Qin Jianfeng had left the forces of the Endless Star Sea at somewhat of a disadvantage, since their most optimally positioned chess piece had been rendered useless.

Of all the spies planted by the Endless Star Sea, Qin Wushang was the best. The emperor of the largest empire on the surface was an essential position, but it became compromised due to his son.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Lin Zhen was an enemy of the Endless Star Sea.

If he could capture Lin Zhen, that would indeed be a massive accomplishment.

As for this thing in front of him, which he couldn’t tell whether it was human or machine, it meant nothing to him. It didn’t matter if it stayed, and it could be killed at any time too.

“Can you locate Lin Zhen now?”

“I can try.”

Jitilu gestured for the machine to proceed. The machine’s heart lifted with joy. This meant that Jitilu believed his words. He might succeed in taking revenge and no longer needed to die.

He directed his gaze towards the direction where Lin Zhen was situated, which was the previous location of the black hole.

The previously terrifying black hole had completely disappeared, leaving no trace to be seen.

The mechanical eye rotated briefly, a metal compound eye appeared at the center of his forehead, emitting a faint red light, significantly enhancing his vision.

The nebulous starscape progressed layer by layer, his eyes acted like a high-powered telescope.

Jitilu and others looked at the robot with interest, they found this robot somewhat intriguing.

“Oh… sure enough, he’s here, Lin Zhen!”

Within the compound eye, Jitilu saw Lin Zhen sitting cross-legged in the distant void, seemingly cultivating.

“Master, I have found him!”

The robot raised a hand, a virtual screen popped up, displaying what he saw.

The scene on-screen was incredibly clear; they could even see the detestable face of Lin Zhen.

“Master! It is indeed Lin Zhen, it is him, I came from the ground, I recognize this person.”

“That’s right, I can confirm, Lord Qin Wushang had to leave the Qin Kingdom due to this man, I was just a common guard in Qin Palace at that time.”

A ferocious smile appeared on Jitilu’s face: “Good! This journey wasn’t for naught, we have indeed found a big fish. Let’s set off now, and capture Lin Zhen.”

“Everyone, heed my command, move forward immediately, don’t make a sound to alert him, quietly lay a trap, I want him alive this time!”

The three hellhounds were spurred, let out earth-shaking roars, quickened their pace and bolted towards Lin Zhen.

The warriors of the Demon Clan were waving their big axes, war hammers, and steel pitchforks, they moved out from both sides, ready to block Lin Zhen’s escape route.

The robot let out a long sigh of relief, thinking that it had finally managed to survive.

Then Jitilu looked at him, his gaze filled with a cold glimmer.

“This being sent signals to insult my Endless Star Sea race. His crime is unforgivable. Take him out and feed him to the dogs!”

Several War Generals of the Demon Clan in the Three Flowers Stage immediately scrambled to him, grabbed the robot and took it outside.

“Master! Just now you accepted my suggestion, I brought the news of Lin Zhen….”

“Humph! What you’ve done isn’t enough to forgive your crime, you should be thankful that you are not made of flesh and blood, otherwise, I would have my lads tear you to pieces!”

The robot gave up all hope, didn’t put up resistance, and let the Demon Clan generals drag it away.

When it saw the mouth of the hellhound opening and closing, the robot muttered in a low voice: “Ye Hua… my son… I have finally avenged you!”

*********

The turmoil within Lin Zhen’s body finally began to subside.

After achieving longevity, the world within his body did not expand. If anything had changed, it was the atmosphere of this place.

The previous world was roughly equivalent to the New World, not an excellent place for cultivation, such a world could hatch a World King at most, it is impossible for a longevity to appear.

But now, his world has reached the Original World level and became a Holy Land for cultivation.

In his Dantian, within the black hole, beads such as pearls floated within the black hole.

One among them was the largest and brightest, it was Lin Zhen’s Kirin Bead. The star pearl that he had previously received had become denser due to the dark energy and dark matter that fused into the hole when the new black hole integrated.

Those smaller beads floating around could not be ignored either, each bead was a neutron from the black hole, highly compressed.

Each bead, regardless of the size represented a planet.

His spiritual power was fluttering among these beads, engaged in a great cultivation practice.

Transforming his Galaxy Domain!

Lin Zhen’s previous Galaxy Domain consisted of planets condensed by spiritual power. Although they could explode, their power was not great, therefore, he had discontinued using them long ago.

What he intended to do now was to replace those virtual planets with these Kirin Beads.

No need for explosions, gravitational distortion will be enough!

Unlike a normal Gravity Field, such gravitational distortion is even more terrifying than the sharpest knife in the world.

Imagine being squeezed by the gravity of two stars, the situation of people trapped inside would be horrific.

Moreover, it was not just two stars, inside Lin Zhen’s black hole, there are hundreds of these neutrons!

Even if Lin Zhen couldn’t control all of them at once, controlling a dozen or two dozen was not a problem.

The Spiritual Power was constantly fluctuating, trying to gain control.

“This is about the limit, twenty-eight, that’s the maximum number of Kirin Beads I can control. However, I can still arrange a galaxy with that.”

Lin Zhen withdrew his hand, his gaze directed at the distance, which was the direction of the Demon Clan.

His eyes glowed, revealing a playful smile on his face: “Such a gang of criminals!”
