Chapter 586: In the Mysterious Darkness
Antarctica is frozen for thousands of miles. k
The water surface is like a lake, but because of the solid ice all over it, there are no waves. Vast ice fields and icebergs stretch as far as the eye can see.
A team skimmed across the ice and landed in front of the largest palace in the center of an ice city. Lin Ya strode forward and bowed to see him off with the team's peak star master. The two galaxy masters accompanied Lin Ya all the way into the palace, and when they reached a certain point, they bowed and retreated.
Lin Ya walked inward alone, turned around the corridor, and entered the palace.
"You came back too soon." A voice echoed in the hall, and in the darkness, a tall figure came slowly. [
The man was wearing a robe, covering his whole body, and a hood also covered his head and face. Everything was hidden under the cover, and he did not want to see the light of day.
"If there is no fight, of course it will be quick." Lin Ya said with a hint of respect in his tone.
"Why?" The man walked slowly around Lin Ya. Lin Ya had to keep turning around following him.
"The time is not yet ripe." Lin Ya said. The darkness in the hall made him feel uncomfortable, so he took off his sunglasses. His eyes were exposed, showing a look of awe.
"Why?" The man kept walking, slowly and evenly.
"There are seven powerful people on earth." Lin Ya explained, "Six of them have established six major alliances, and I am one of them. There is another person who came earlier than us, but wants to be a free man. That person Her name is Qiu Yunzhi, she is as beautiful as a fairy, and everyone calls her Qiu Fairy."
"Yeah." The man nodded.
"Fairy Qiu's strength is unfathomable." Lin Ya said, "Even Ying Aotian, the strongest among the six major alliances, does not dare to provoke her easily."
"Are you scared?" the man asked.
"Indeed." Lin Ya nodded and actually admitted. "I am not Ying Aotian's opponent, and I am certainly not her opponent. If she maintains Shen Zheng, there is nothing I can do. Only the six major alliances must turn against her together to gain momentum. But that is almost impossible."
"Why?" the man asked.
"She has a transcendent identity and came to Earth earlier than all of us." Lin Ya said, "And she is so strong that the other five people will not be willing to offend her. You know, a woman's beauty has a fatal temptation for men. "Men often feel helpless in front of beautiful women."
"What you said makes me want to see her too." The man smiled but his voice was silent, but despite his voice, Lin Ya could feel that he was smiling. This was a wonderful feeling, and Lin Ya was the passive recipient. From this, he knew that the man's will power was far stronger than his own.
So I couldn't help but feel more and more in awe.
"With her here, I can't force Shen Zheng too much. k
"So, she is sure that Shen Zheng will reach the second-level galaxy master realm within three months?" The man finally stopped.
"It shouldn't be possible, right?" Lin Ya frowned, "Qiu Yunzhi is just the second-level galaxy master. No matter how strong she is, she can't create a strong person on the same level as herself."
"Then it means that Shen Zheng has a secret skill." The man smiled, "Yes, there is a secret skill that can allow him to reach the level of the second-level galaxy lord..."
"There is such a secret skill?" Lin Ya was stunned, and a drop of sweat fell unconsciously. [
"Are you afraid?" The man's tone was calm, but there was a deep chill, colder than this ice palace.
"I'm just worried." Lin Ya said, "Just worried..."
"If you're afraid, just admit that you're afraid." The man laughed loudly, but he could sense it.
"You go down and rest." After laughing, he said. "Starting tomorrow, I will also start a series of training for you. No matter what kind of power is supporting Shen Zheng, I will let him end in a disastrous defeat."
"Yes!" Lin Ya lowered his head, stepped back respectfully, and slowly exited the hall. The door slowly closed, and the hall fell into darkness, complete darkness, like the void of end, or the abyss of hell.
"Who are you?" The man disappeared completely in the darkness, as if he did not exist in this hall. "Interesting. I can't detect you, and you can't detect me, right? We can only sense each other, but we can't confirm each other's existence. Do you want to help Shen Zheng? Okay, then let's compete."
A loud laugh filled the entire dark hall.
Thousands of miles of ocean, as far as the eye could see, Shen Zheng was suspended on the sea surface, facing three galaxy master-level Zerg species that roared from the bottom of the sea and broke through the sea surface.
"Hell-like training." Qiu Yunzhi smiled faintly, hanging in the distance.
White light flashed, and the blood spirit whip turned into a white snake, circling and flying with a long hiss. Shen Zheng's face was as calm as water, and the power of space surged wildly between his hands.
Bloody light burst out, both from the Zerg and from Shen Zheng.
These three guys are not ordinary first-order galaxy lords, but first-order high-level experts who Qiu Yunzhi specially forced to come here with the power of his mind. Under the combined attack of the three insects, Shen Zheng could only barely respond.
"Hell-like training." Blood spurted out from the wound, but he didn't even look at it. He moved with great strength and a smile appeared on his lips.
From that day on, this hellish training became the norm in Shen Zheng's life. In addition to necessary rest and preparation of crystals, Shen Zheng has been training under the supervision of Qiu Yunzhi to fight against the powerful Zerg. Every day, he almost finished training with scars all over his body and fell asleep in the palace.
At his level, sleep is no longer necessary. Even if he is tired, meditation is enough to replenish the physical and mental losses. But now he must sleep for several hours every day, which fully proves the cruelty and exhaustion of training.
He was so tired that he no longer had the energy to meditate.
The one-to-two trading ratio makes free people crazy. Among them, the pinnacle star masters did not have much to do, they just searched everywhere for traces of spent cores, while the galaxy masters continued to hunt the powerful Zerg to obtain more spent cores. In the past, there were some particularly "unlucky" people who always encountered more waste nuclear carriers than others, but now, such people have become the lucky ones.
In fact, this kind of people just have a unique mentality and are more attracted to the Zerg that carries waste cores. No one knows whether this is a natural talent or an ability that was born under the influence of "rules".
A large number of spent cores were sent to the island. In one month, Shen Zheng obtained more than 300 spent cores, more than twice as many as before.
After absorbing these Origin Insect Crystals, Shen Zheng's strength increased again, and he continued to climb towards higher peaks. The increase in the power of the source insect, coupled with the hell-style training, caused his overall strength to continue to rise and grow at an alarming rate.
But he knew that this was not enough.
"Fairy Qiu, let's beat three." On this day, he said to Qiu Yunzhi. [
"One waste core for three Holy Spirit crystals of the same level?" Qiu Yunzhi asked.
"Yes." Shen Zheng nodded. "Such a huge temptation to die for money will make all free people busy looking for waste cores, so that I can get more waste cores to increase my strength."
"That's fine." Qiu Yunzhi nodded, "Anyway, the preparation is just a piece of cake for you."
Shen Zheng also laughed, but he stopped laughing after a moment, because as Qiu Yun waved his hand, five powerful Galaxy Lord-level Zerg broke through the sea and attacked him.
Blood was flying in the air again, blooming like flowers. Beautiful and full of the smell of death.
When the news of the one-to-three ratio trade was released, all the free agents went crazy. No one is seriously looking for the carrier of the Holy Spirit Crystal anymore, but they are all trying their best to hunt down the Zerg with waste cores in their bodies. For a time, those free people who often encountered waste nuclear carriers became the targets of everyone's vying to please.
What's strange is that the number of Zerg carrying waste cores is gradually increasing. Originally, you would only encounter one or two out of every ten killed, but now you will find one or two out of every four or five killed.
For a time, waste nuclear became a hot commodity and a priceless treasure.
"Lord Leader, do you really plan to do this?"
In a majestic palace in the middle of the vast Eurasian continent, an elder at the Lord of the Galaxy level looked at Ying Aotian in confusion and asked cautiously.
"Why not?" Ying Aotian sat on the throne, drinking wine. It was a fine wine made from wild grapes on the earth. It had an ancient flavor in it, which fascinated Ying Aotian.
"But wouldn't that be in line with Shen Zheng's wishes?" The elder frowned.
"Don't just think about Shen Zheng, but also think about ourselves." Ying Aotian drank the wine. "Is this good for us?"
"Of course it's beneficial." The elder said, "We have a lot of waste cores on hand, and they can be useful if we keep them. It's just because you thought they might have some special use, so you collected them instead of throwing them away. If you use them in exchange for Shen Zheng, It will be a huge benefit.”
"Then why not do it?" Ying Aotian smiled. "Just because of this, it is in line with Shen Zheng's wishes? It is beneficial to yourself and beneficial to others, so why not do it?"
"I understand." The elder nodded, "Lord Leader, I will send someone right away... No, I will handle this matter myself."
"Keep a low profile." Ying Aotian said, "Don't let the other five major alliances know about it. As for what they do privately, we don't have to worry about it."
"Understood." The elder responded and stepped back.
"The waste core has become a treasure?" Ying Aotian raised his hand, and a peak star master came forward and filled his glass with fine wine. "Shen Zheng, what will you bring to the earth? Is it a bloody storm? Is it a strange change? Or..."
The wine was full, he raised it to his lips and drank with a smile.
One day later, Shen Zheng welcomed a mysterious trader. He carried more than two thousand spent cores and traded them with Shen Zheng. The large number shocked Liang Tao and others who were in charge of registration. If they hadn't gained a lot from the transaction in the previous month, they really wouldn't have been able to eat so many waste cores at once.
More than two thousand spent cores are equivalent to nearly seven thousand Holy Spirit crystals. Shen Zheng could prepare thousands of pieces at a time, but it took him seven times to complete all the preparations.
However, that was only a matter of ten or twenty minutes.
"Who could this be?" Qiu Yunzhi was a little confused.
"I think it's Ying Aotian." Shen Zheng whispered after finishing the preparation.
"Why?" Qiu Yunzhi asked with a smile.
"Because he is the true king." Shen Zheng's words were profound.
"You came to Earth not long ago, but you seem to know him better than I do." Qiu Yunzhi smiled.
"A feeling." Shen Zheng also smiled.
