Chapter 714: Chapter 717: The Reward for the First ce (Eighth Update)


    Those who were watching the battle on the Divine Punishment Star had their hearts brutally tested.


    It felt like a roller coaster, full of ups and downs.


    Too many unexpected things had happened. Firstly, Lin Zhen had risen all the way and killed in all directions. At the end, Qin Jianfeng turned the tables and turned out to be an imperial nsman.


    Then a woman caused the to collide with the divine barrier and then turned around and left.


    In the end, Lin Zhen had actually transformed into a huge Fire Kirin!


    No! It’s not a Fire Kirin. Fire Kirins are red in color. This one was ck, and when it appeared, it was as if people saw a boundless starry sky.N?v(el)B\\jnn


    Clusters of star nebs rotated in the sky. The ck behemoth roared towards the sky and then jumped down from the sky.


    Stepping on lotus flowers, it reached Qin Jianfeng in just two or three steps.


    Qin Jianfeng’s hands ejected long sword lights as he stood there watching this alien beast.


    “Lin Zhen! Is this your Gxy Beast’s true form? It should be from the Kirin n, but no matter which branch of the Kirin n you belong to, you will never have any advantage over me today.”<div>


    “Let’s see the power of the imperial n, behold my Sword de Storm!”


    Both hands crossed and waved, two Sword Gangs stirred up wind and cloud, crisscrossing swords filled the space again.


    It was this move that had directly forced Lin Zhen, who possessed a body, Star Energy Transfer, and had taken Divine Power Pills, into the sky – showing how powerful it was.


    At this time, the countdown had reached five seconds!


    In five seconds, the Divine Punishment Star would end.


    Facing Qin Jianfeng’s endless Sword Array, Lin Zhen’s indifferent beast eyes shot out chilling light, as if he was looking at a dead person.


    He opened his mouth, and starlight flickered deep in his throat.


    There was the most terrifying ce in the universe, the ck Hole!


    “Imperial n strong one, Qin Jianfeng, you’ve been lurking in the Da Qin Empire just for this day, right? But it’s a pity, you’ve met me. This time, you won’t get what you want!”


    “ck Hole Storm!”


    A storm of starlight instantly filled Qin Jianfeng’s field of vision. Within the scope of his vision, he could see nothing else.


    The Sword Array he emitted disappeared from sight at that moment!


    “Spirit Sword Body Guard!”


    Qin Jianfeng’s body was full of surging Sword Qi, and countless Sword Qi pierced into the surrounding rock walls like ropes, firmly securing his body!


    The star power in his Dantian was boiling, forming a strong protectivework with the power of 37 million stars! He vowed to fight against Lin Zhen’s ck Hole Storm!


    At this moment, Qin Jianfeng could no longer hope to defeat Lin Zhen. His only goal was to hold on for thesest few seconds!


    The less than five seconds felt like an eternity.


    Every second, Qin Jianfeng’s strength was rapidly reduced, and his body was already out of control!


    “3…!”<div>


    Flying sand and rocks surrounded him, as if the end of the world wasing. Everything around him was surging towards the endless ck Hole!


    “2…!”


    Qin Jianfeng’s hands finally could not hold on any longer. He couldn’t imagine how Lin Zhen possessed such extraordinary talent that even his power of over 30 million stars could not resist!


    “1…!”<div>


    With a swoosh, Qin Jianfeng screamed as his entire body fell into the ck Hole.


    However, he did not really fall into it. The moment he entered the ck Hole, he was already deemed as dead.


    Otherwise, if the ck Hole truly turned him into molecules, it would be unknown if the deity could revive him.


    A blue light enveloped Qin Jianfeng’s body, and it began to fly upward.


    He clearly saw the changes on the leaderboard. At thest moment, he had lost his first ce position. After losing half of his points, he fell to second ce, while Lin Zhen finally reached the top!


    Drifting in the air, he could even hear the final announcement.


    “The Divine Punishment Star is over. All participants will be teleported back to the starting point…”


    Qin Jianfeng closed his eyes slightly to prevent tears from flowing out. He was extremely unwilling in his heart. His elimination at thest moment was something he had never expected. If that was the case, he would rather have never been in first ce. At least his heart would feel better that way.


    But everything was over, and everything was already destined. There would be no more changes.


    The next moment, he was back in the Da Qin Empire.


    As soon as he appeared, his father, Qin Wushang, grabbed his arm.


    “No need to say anything! Let’s go!”


    “Where to?”<div>


    “Of course, we must leave the Original World and go to the Endless Star Sea. We can’t stay here any longer. Those who support me have already started to riot. Some princes havee to the capital under the name of serving the king. I can’t be the emperor anymore.”


    Qin Jianfeng was stunned as his father pulled him, and his heart felt icy cold.


    It was all over. After lurking in the Original World for a thousand years, it hade to this result.


    If Lin Zhen hadn’t eliminated him and if he hadn’t been seriously injured by Lin Zhen’s Destructive God Thunder, he wouldn’t have been in such a situation, and his imperial identity wouldn’t have been discovered.


    He was proud of his imperial status, but the Original World couldn’t amodate them, so he and his father had no choice but to leave.


    “But I still have the Divine Body…”


    “It doesn’t matter about the divine body, the deity will give it to you directly, wherever you are. Now all we have to do is leave.”


    Qin Wushang and Qin Jianfeng rushed out of the Imperial Pce without having time to take anything with them and plunged into the vast starry sky.


    From today onwards, the once glorious Da Qin Empire began its decline.


    *********


    On the streets of Nan Liang, the crowd on the big screen first quieted down for a while, then suddenly erupted in thunderous cheers!


    “We won!”


    “First ce! Lin Zhen got first ce!”<div>


    “The hero of Nan Liang, we must sing for him!”


    “How can singing be enough? We also need to erect a monument for him, to forever remember this moment.”


    Excited people sang and danced, lost in joy.


    The cheers reached the Imperial Pce, and Liang Zhihuan slowly closed his eyes, feeling that the noise was so harsh.


    Iron Granny stood up: “Your Majesty, your queen has returned. It took her ten months to find the Divine Punishment Star, but only one month to return.”


    “How is she doing?”


    “She’s alright, not insane or foolish, but she might forget a lot of things.”


    “That’s good. This is the only good news I’ve heard so far.”


    Iron Granny left, and Liang Zhihuan sat for a while, then summoned Shi Xiaomao toe in.


    “Release Lin Zhen’s dark side, and let people see what kind of person this national hero really is.”


    “Yes, your majesty. But the public’s emotions are high, so it might not have a good effect. How about we wait a couple of days?”


    “Well, let’s dy it for a few days, and find the most appropriate time.”


    “Understood!”<div>


    Shi Xiaomao left, and Liang Zhihuan leaned back in his chair. He was slightly relieved about Ning Qingxuan’s possible amnesia.


    If she hadn’t lost her memory, ording to his agreement with Ning Qingxuan, he would have to agree to anything Lin Zhen wanted, except for his throne. If Lin Zhen wanted to take the queen away, he wouldn’t be able to resist.


    Now it’s good, Ning Qingxuan lost her memory, and it’s all over. There’s no need to worry about this issue anymore.


    ********


    All the martial artists on the Divine Punishment Star have already been teleported away, leaving the entire in silence.


    Only in some ces, the scattered howls of undead creatures can still be heard.


    The sealedary curtain has beenpletely removed, leaving this ce a destend of the dead.


    Lin Zhen has turned back into a human from the ck Hole Beast’s form. He looked up at the starry sky, feeling a bit at a loss.


    Why hadn’t he been teleported away, but remained here?


    As he was puzzled, a sudden voice rang in his ears.


    “Lin Zhen, what a very intriguing journey. Even I didn’t expect you to actually win first ce.”


    “It’s you!”


    Lin Zhen’s heart was overjoyed. He was too familiar with this voice – it was the same person who had tested him at the North Pole, or rather, the person who had arranged the Divine Punishment Star trial.


    “The Divine Punishment Star happens once every 100,000 years. Since ancient times, it has been held countless times, but your situation is very rare!”


    Lin Zhen remained silent. 100,000 years seemed like a long time, but how many 100,000 years had passed in the eternal river of time?


    The Earth is around 4.5 billion years old, and the sun is even older.


    And the New World is believed to have existed for nearly 20 billion years, but what about the Original World?


    The birth of the Original World was far earlier than the New World, and no one knows exactly how many years have passed.


    Many events from ancient times are now impossible to trace.


    How many Divine Punishment Stars have been held during the Earth’s 4.5 billion years?


    One every 100,000 years, a billion years means a thousand times. During Earth’s existence, the Divine Punishment Star has appeared 45,000 times!


    So how many Divine Punishment Stars are there in total? Hundreds of thousands to millions are possible.


    But this deity told him that his current situation is very rare, so it must be incredibly rare.


    The deity’s voice continued: “As far as I know, out of all the Divine Punishment Stars, there are only two precedents where someone, like you, first attained a Super Divine Body and then won first ce in the trials. You are the third case.”


    “Then may I ask, what should I do about my current situation? Will I be given another Super Divine Body?”


    “Of course, the rewards of the Divine Punishment Star only include divine bodies. However, your situation is even more special than the previous two cases, making it troublesome for me.”


    “Oh! What’s the difference between me and the other two?”


    “There are several types of rewards here: one is the divine body gained from normal ranking, and since you got first ce and already have a Super Divine Body, normally you should have two divine bodies, each with their own uses. But you happen to be the first one eliminated from the Divine Punishment Star, and that reward is also a high-level divine body. In this case, there is no way to arrange three divine bodies.”


    Lin Zhen remained silent. He knew that now was the time to keep quiet and get rich.


    As expected, after a while, the voice finally said: “Fine! Your situation is special this time, so let me make it easier for you. First, let me show you this round of rewards and give you a chance to choose for yourself.”


    A burst of golden light flickered, and a series of divine bodies appeared before Lin Zhen!
