Chapter 716: Reward for First Place (eight updates)
Those who watched the battle of the Divine Punishment Star had their hearts put to a severe test.
It feels like a roller coaster, up and down.
There were too many unexpected things. First, Lin Zhen rose all the way and killed everyone, and in the end, Qin Jianfeng made a comeback and turned out to be a member of the imperial clan.
Then a woman pushed the planet to hit the god's barrier, and then turned and left.
Finally, Lin Zhen actually transformed into a giant fire unicorn! No! It was not a fire unicorn. Fire unicorns are red, but this one was black. When this giant beast appeared, people seemed to see a starry sky.
Clusters of nebulas were spinning in the air, and a black giant beast let out a long roar towards the sky, then swooped down from the sky.
Stepping on the lotus, he took two or three steps and arrived in front of Qin Jianfeng.
Qin Jianfeng stood there with long swords emitting from both of his hands, looking at the strange beast.
“Lin Zhen! Is this your Galaxy Beast’s true form? It should be from the Qilin clan, but no matter which branch of the Qilin clan you belong to, you can’t take advantage of me today.”
"Let me show you the fighting power of the strong men of the imperial family. Look at my sword storm!"
His hands waved and crossed, the two swords stirred up the wind and clouds, and the criss-crossing sword nets filled the space again.
It was this move that just now pushed Lin Zhen, who had a body, transferred star power and taken the divine power pill, directly into the sky. It can be seen how powerful this attack is.
At this time, the countdown has reached five seconds! In five seconds, the Star of Divine Punishment will end.
Facing Qin Jianfeng's endless sword net, Lin Zhen's cold beast eyes shot out cold light, as if he was looking at a dead person.
He opened his mouth, and starlight flickered deep in his throat.
That is the most terrifying place in the universe, the black hole! "Qin Jianfeng, the powerful emperor, you have been lurking in the Qin Empire just for this day, but it is a pity that you met me. This time you can't get what you want!"
"Black Hole Storm~!"
A ball of storm starlight instantly filled Qin Jianfeng's vision, and he could not see anything else within his field of vision.
The sword net he released had disappeared into thin air at this moment!
"Spiritual Sword Body Protection!"
Qin Jianfeng's entire body was filled with sword energy. Countless sword energies pierced into the surrounding mountain walls like ropes, firmly fixing his body!
The star power in his dantian was boiling, and as much as 37 million star powers formed a powerful protective net. He was determined to fight against Lin Zhen’s black hole storm to the death!
At this moment, Qin Jianfeng no longer dared to hope to defeat Lin Zhen. His only goal now was to hold on for the last few seconds! In less than five seconds, this moment seemed as long as a century.
Every second, Qin Jianfeng's strength was rapidly decreasing and deteriorating. His body was no longer under his control! "3!"
There were flying sand and rocks all around, a doomsday scene was happening, and everything around was being pushed towards the endless black hole!
“2!”
Qin Jianfeng's hands finally couldn't hold on any longer. He couldn't imagine how Lin Zhen had such a powerful talent and skill that even his star power of more than 30 million couldn't match it!
“1!”
With a whoosh, Qin Jianfeng let out a scream and fell into the black hole.
But he didn't actually fall in. The moment he entered the black hole, he was declared dead.
Otherwise, if it is really turned into that molecular structure by the black hole, I don’t know whether the gods can resurrect it.
A ball of green light wrapped around Qin Jianfeng's body and began to fly into the air.
He clearly saw the changes on the list. At the last moment, he lost his first place. After losing half of his points, he fell to second place. Lin Zhen finally reached the top!
Floating in the air, he could even hear the last sound.
"The Divine Punishment Star is over. All contestants are teleported back to their starting point."
Qin Jianfeng closed his eyes slightly to prevent tears from flowing out of his eyes. He was extremely unwilling in his heart. Such a result was beyond his expectations. He was eliminated at the last moment. If this was the case, he would rather never have won the first place. At least that way he would feel better.
But everything is over, everything is destined, and there will never be any change.
The next moment, he had returned to the Qin Empire.
As soon as he appeared, his father Qin Wushang grabbed his arm.
"Don't say anything! Let's go!"
"Where are you going?"
"Of course we have to leave the Metaverse and go to the Endless Star Sea. We can no longer stay here. Those who support me have already started to riot. Several princes have come to the imperial capital in the name of serving the emperor. This emperor can no longer be emperor."
Qin Jianfeng was held by his father in a daze, his heart feeling cold.
Everything is over. After lurking in the metaverse for thousands of years, this is the result.
If Lin Zhen had not eliminated him, if he had not been seriously injured by Lin Zhen's destructive thunder, he would not have reached this point, and his identity as an imperial family would not have been discovered.
He was proud of the imperial family, but the Metaverse could not accommodate the imperial family. He and his father had no choice but to leave.
"But I still have a divine body."
"It doesn't matter what the divine body is. The gods will give it to you directly, no matter where you are. Now all we have to do is leave."
Qin Wushang and Qin Jianfeng rushed out of the palace without taking anything with them, and rushed into the vast starry sky.
The once glorious Qin Empire began to decline from this day forward.
********* On the streets of Nanliang, on the big screen, the crowd was quiet for a while, and then suddenly burst into thunderous shouts! "We won!"
"First place! Lin Zhen got first place!"
"Nanliang hero, we want to sing for him!"
"Singing is not enough. We also need to erect a monument for him to commemorate this moment forever."
The excited people sang and danced, enjoying themselves to the fullest.
The sound reached the palace, and Liang Zhihuan slowly closed his eyes, feeling that the sound was so harsh.
Aunt Tie stood up and said, "Emperor, your queen has returned. She spent ten months searching for the God's Punishment Star, and it only took her one month to return."
"How is she?"
"It's not bad. I haven't turned into a madman, a fool, or an idiot, but I may forget a lot of things."
"That's good. This is the only good news I have heard."
Tie Gu Po left. Liang Zhihuan sat for a while and called Shi Xiaomao in.
"Let's expose all the negative information about Lin Zhen, so that people can know what kind of person this national hero is."
"Yes, Your Majesty. However, the public is in a very high mood right now. I'm afraid that releasing it now will not have much effect. How about waiting for two days?"
"Okay, let's wait for two days and find the most appropriate time."
"clear!"
Shi Xiaomao left, and Liang Zhihuan leaned back in his chair, feeling a little relieved that Ning Qingxuan might have lost her memory.
If she had not lost her memory, then according to the agreement between him and Ning Qingxuan, he would have to agree to anything Lin Zhen asked for as long as he did not want his throne. When the time came, when Lin Zhen came to take the queen away, he could not disobey his promise.
Now that Ning Qingxuan has lost her memory, it’s all over and I don’t have to worry about this problem anymore.
******** The warriors of the Divine Punishment Star have all been teleported away, and the entire planet has fallen into silence.
Only occasionally, the roar of undead creatures could be heard from somewhere.
The canopy of the enclosed planet has been completely removed, and this place is now a lonely land of the dead.
Lin Zhen has transformed from the form of a black hole beast back into a human. He looked up at the starry sky, feeling a little at a loss.
Why didn't he teleport away, but stayed here? Just when I was confused, a voice suddenly sounded in my ears.
"Lin Zhenyo, this is such an amazing journey. Even I didn't expect you to get first place."
"It's you!"
Lin Zhen was delighted, as he was very familiar with this voice. It was the person who had tested him in the Arctic. In other words, it was this person who had set up the test of the Star of Divine Punishment.
"The God's Punishment Star occurs once every 100,000 years. It has been held countless times since ancient times, but situations like yours are rare!"
Lin Zhen remained silent. One hundred thousand years seemed to be a long time, but in the eternal river of time, how many hundred thousand years had already passed? The age of the earth was about 4.5 billion years, and the age of the sun was even longer than that of the earth.
People believe that the New World may have existed for nearly 20 billion years, but what about the Metaverse? The Metaverse was created much earlier than the New World, and no one can tell exactly how many years it has existed.
There is no way to count many things that happened in ancient times.
Even in the 4.5 billion years of Earth’s existence, how many divine punishment stars have been held?
Once every 100,000 years, 100 million years is 1,000 times. In the history of the Earth, this God's Punishment Star has appeared 45,000 times! So how many God's Punishment Stars are there in total? It is estimated that hundreds of thousands or even millions of times are possible.
But the god told him that situations like his were very rare, and that they were really rare.
The voice of the god continued, "As far as I know, after all the God Punishment Stars appeared, there have only been two precedents like you, where someone first obtained a super divine body and then achieved the first place. You are the third one."
"So may I ask what should I do in my current situation? Should I still be given a super divine body?"
"Of course, this is the Star of Divine Punishment, and the only reward is the Divine Body. However, your situation is even more special than the previous two, which is a bit of a headache."
"Oh! It's different from the other two. What's the difference?"
"There are several types of rewards here. One is the Divine Body during normal ranking. You got first place, and you already got a Super Divine Body. Normally, you would have two Divine Bodies, each with its own use. But you also got the first elimination spot in the Divine Punishment Star, and that reward is also a high-level Divine Body. In this case, there is no way to arrange for three Divine Bodies."
Lin Zhen remained silent. He knew that the best option at this time was to make a fortune quietly.
Sure enough, after a while, the voice finally said, "Forget it! Your situation is special this time, so I'll give you a bargain. I'll let you see the reward first and give you a chance to choose for yourself."
A golden light flashed before his eyes, and a string of divine bodies appeared in front of Lin Zhen! Today is the eighth update, and I will add more for the 600 monthly votes from the book friends!
Regarding Lin Zhen’s final reward of the divine body, Heitu has some ideas. The protagonist must get the best, but what is the best way? If you have any ideas, please recommend them.
