Chapter 531: 532: Kill!!!
Chapter 531: Chapter 532: Kill!!!
As shocked as they were by Lin Zhen’s madness, people had to admire his strength.
With a single move, he had killed a Star System Level 3 Locust Commander, even though he himself was merely at Black Hole Stage. Those who had previously doubted how Lin Zhen managed to snatch the first position in the Chaotic Star River kill list from Ye Hua were now silenced.
However, this did not mean people believed he could survive. Having killed a Locust Commander was one thing, survival amidst the boundless Insect Clan’s army was a whole different story.
Labels such as reckless, immature, and disregard for the bigger picture were thrown at Lin Zhen.
The Mantis Commander, who was watching the video outside the channel, immediately exploded with anger and contacted John: “John! What the hell are you guys doing? Did you tell Lin Zhen to act like this?”
John, his forehead already slick with sweat, stuttered an explanation to the Mantis, “Commander, there may have been… a misunderstanding… Perhaps it was the Locust Commander’s condescending attitude that provoked Lin Zhen with his hot-headed nature… I will immediately order Lin Zhen to cease.”
John, in his haste, was calling out to Lin Zhen in the Dimensional Universe. Having already killed the Locust Commander, if Lin Zhen continued to attack, all his plans would be ruined. Worse, John might even end up dying with Lin Zhen. That was something he absolutely did not want to see.
“Master, John has been continuously calling you.”
“Block him!”
Lin Zhen only uttered one line, letting John panic in his urgency.
Elite Mantis Warriors from the other side were already charging forward. Lin Zhen gripped the Yin-Yang Spear in his hands and the Lightning Wings behind him billowed out, propelling his body into the enemy ranks like a cannonball!
Thunder Kill~!!
A bolt of lightning fired from the spear, piercing through the Mantis Warrior formation and shooting into the distant meteor belt.
The path that the Thunder Kill had taken had disintegrated hundreds of Black Hole Stage Mantis Warriors.
“Hahaha~~!!! So-called Insect Clan, just this is all!”
With the spear in his hand transformed into a rain of spears, Lin Zhen, like a spiked Ci Wei, rolled forward violently, leaving nothing standing in his path.
Meteor Fall~~!!
A group of Mantis Warriors fell to their deaths as Lin Zhen’s body swooped down. With a swing of his arm, an energy ball flew out, wiping out hundreds of warriors.
Whenever Mantis Warriors tried to surround Lin Zhen, a swath of starry skies would appear and the Tianhe Star Explosion would rip through the life of the Mantis Warriors.
A silhouette flickered erratically. The occasional Spatial Slash cut through the space, near and far. The ten thousand elite Mantis warriors failed to inflict any damage on Lin Zhen, as they were almost wiped out.
The four Star System Stage Mantis Warrior leaders, fearing Lin Zhen’s bravery, jointly attacked from above. However, Lin Zhen simply teleported, and killed them easily with one Phantom God Strike after another.
When the four leaders fell, fewer than a thousand of the ten thousand Mantis Warriors were left.
They tried to use guerrilla tactics and swarm attacks to harass and ambush Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen sneered, unleashing several gravitational forces to pull the circling Mantis Warriors one by one. A Golden Qi Beam pierced their brains in the air.
Under the gravity, the Mantis Warriors couldn’t even escape. The immense disparity in their power left them without any resistance. Like falling leaves, they tumbled from the sky.
Almost a thousand warriors, none of which held out for even a minute, lay dead on the ground.
After slaughtering ten thousand Mantis Warriors, Lin Zhen held his spear and headed straight for the spatial channel.
People watching the video through the Dimensional Universe were completely dumbfounded.
No one expected Lin Zhen to be so ferocious. Even when facing the vastly superior Insect Clan, he did not retreat. Instead, he charged forward actively and annihilated their advance team!
But at this moment, no one realized what Lin Zhen was planning to do. To them, it seemed as if Lin Zhen was trying to escape through this channel. After all, there were still billions of Insect Clan warriors. Lin Zhen would never be able to kill all of them, even if they just stood there.
Even the Mantis Commander thought the same. Once he saw Lin Zhen heading for the channel, he immediately issued an order: “Charge! Don’t let him escape, block him in the channel!”
At the command of the high-ranking Insect Clan warriors, a massive army of warriors began to charge.
The diameter of this channel was about one hundred meters. When countless Insect Clan warriors began to charge, it was like a surging river, instantly filling the channel.
As they were entering from the purchase, Lin Zhen was charging out. Lin Zhen was moving much faster than the Insect Clan, and he met them about twenty thousand kilometers inside the channel!
At this moment, the broadcast on the Dimensional Universe was from Lin Zhen’s perspective. Everyone watching the video saw what Lin Zhen saw.
It was like watching a 3D movie. The Insect Clan warriors rushed towards him, frighteningly hideous as if they were going to tear Lin Zhen to shreds at any moment!
Although Lin Zhen had already demonstrated tremendous strength, the vast number of the Insect Clan was too overwhelming. No one believed that Lin Zhen could survive.
“Spatial Slash!!”
The space within the channel trembled as Lin Zhen unleashed a powerful strike!
Up to a thousand spatial cracks appeared.
Every spatial rift was a three-meter-long crescent, whirling forward with a roaring sound. Thousands of rotating crescents formed a densely packed tide of death.
Any flesh and blood body wouldn’t be able to withstand the cutting of the spatial rifts. For a moment, all you could hear in the video were sounds of bodies getting torn apart, and all you could see was a sky filled with flying flesh and blood.
The rifts, with their destructive power, roared forward, tearing apart everything in their path while Lin Zhen traversed through the rain of flesh and blood. The spectacle was too gruesome for many viewers, causing them to vomit on the spot.
“How terrifying Lin Zhen is. Is he planning to fight his way out?”
“My God! How many of the Insect Clan did he kill with that attack? It must be at least several million.”
“If that’s the case… perhaps Lin Zhen really has a chance to escape.”
On the Insect Clan’s side, the Mantis Commander’s face darkened and with a forceful wave of his hand, he commanded: “Keep attacking! He can only use this kind of attack a few times, our advantage lies in our numbers. The Insect Sea tactic can swallow up anyone!”
Under Lin Zhen’s Spatial Slash, the first batch of five million insects were annihilated. However, there was still a second batch with as many as ten million members of the Insect Clan!
When they encountered Lin Zhen at a distance of 17,000 kilometers, Lin Zhen’s body shook as a giant shadow of a Black Hole Beast emerged over him.
The Black Hole Beast’s ultimate move, Innate Devouring, activated!
Like a whale sucking in water, a giant vortex appeared. Lin Zhen’s move could instantly annihilate all members of the Insect Clan less than Star System Stage!
Unfortunately for the incoming wave of insects, there was only one Star System Stage leader. The Mantis Commander’s strategy was to deplete Lin Zhen’s power through sacrifice of ordinary warriors, so they did not send more Star System Stage bugs.
A scenario ensued where tens of millions of insects turned into beams of light, got swallowed up by the vortex in the void, reduced to the size of beans, and were swallowed by the mouth of the Black Hole Beast.
Out of ten million insects, only the Star System Stage leader survived.
Knowing that after devouring, Lin Zhen would have difficulty moving for a while, the Mantis Commander saw this as a good opportunity for an attack.
“Kill him! Take Lin Zhen down now! He can’t move!”
The Mantis Commander issued the order to the Star System bug, who immediately rushed up with a shriek, swinging its enormous bug blade down hard!
“Spiritual Evil Spirit Cone~!”
Lin Zhen needed a short digestion time, but his Spiritual Power was still functional and he unleashed the Spiritual Evil Spirit Cone!
The Star System bug smiled at the corner of its mouth, thinking it was desperate of Lin Zhen to use mental attacks on insects, which they believed would be futile.
“Ugh….!!”
Its smile froze on its face. It felt as if its Spiritual Consciousness Sea had been viciously stabbed, and an endless wave of monsters surged into its consciousness in an instant, rendering its spiritual consciousness sea thoroughly ravaged!
Within a second, it was brain-dead!
Lin Zhen did not even allow its corpse to go to waste, devouring it through the mouth of the Black Hole Beast. He then looked at the empty passage ahead and continued his advance!
The third and fourth waves of the Insect Clan soldiers arrived. Yet under Lin Zhen’s Spatial Slash and Innate Devouring, especially in this corridor where they couldn’t surround Lin Zhen, their numerical advantage was of no help at all.
They did not pose any trouble for Lin Zhen. Instead, they were slaughtered in large numbers by him!
This was not just killing a few, but massacring millions, tens of millions!
No matter how numerous the Insect Clan were, they couldn’t withstand such a depletion.
By the time Lin Zhen was only a few hundred kilometers away from the end of the corridor, he had already killed over one hundred million of the bugs!
From either Lin Zhen’s or John’s video, viewers were surprised to find that the previously insect-filled sky was now sparse.
The Insect Clan, which had a population of ten billion, had lost more than eight billion just by making their way through the meteor Belt. The remaining number of insects was only about 170 million.
Now, looking at the entire starry sky, the total number of insects seemed to be no more than 50 million!
This corridor had become a meat grinder for the Insect Clan, with 120 million insects perishing under Lin Zhen’s hands!
On his warship, the Mantis Commander’s hands trembled.
“Lin Zhen~! What a powerful tactic you have! You remind me of Feng Qingluan back then. But no matter what, even if it was Feng Qingluan himself here today, he would have to die!”
“Beetle Marshal! Scorpion Commander! Hornet Commander! Centipede Commander! Spider Commander! Lead your elite forces to kill Lin Zhen. We can’t let him escape this corridor at any cost. Once he enters the starry sky, we won’t be able to catch him anymore!”
The Five Great Commanders responded unanimously, each of them bringing their own troops.
The cannon fodder had all died, and the ones now on the battlefield were the elites. The five commanders led a total of 30 million elite Insect Clan warriors, the weakest of whom were all in the Black Hole Stage!
Through John’s live broadcast video, people could clearly see the Five Great Commanders sending their troops out.
All of the warriors watched as at least 30 million Black Hole Stage insects prepared for battle. They knew the final confrontation was coming.
