Age of Evolution

Chapter 734: Chapter 737: The Power of the Spiritual Treasure! (Seven more updates, plus 1400 monthly ticket updates)

This was the first time Lin Zhen met Iron Granny.

Although it was their first encounter, the two were mortal enemies!

For Iron Granny, Lin Zhen was the subverter and challenger of their Qingye Sect and the Nan Liang royal family. She wouldn’t be able to quell the hatred in her heart if she didn’t kill him. Moreover, Lin Zhen had just killed her two younger sisters. Although Iron Granny seemed calm, she actually wanted to eat Lin Zhen alive.

As for Lin Zhen, this old witch was one of the chief culprits behind his current situation and was almost on par with Liang Zhihuan.

Without her support, Liang Zhihuan wouldn’t have caused such a storm. Without her sending Iron Second Lady and Iron Third Lady, Lin Zhen wouldn’t have been so passive.

If she hadn’t used the Soul Chasing Bell, Xuan’er wouldn’t have lost her memory; not only that, but she was now blocking his way, trying to bury Xuan’er in Liang Zhihuan’s hands.

Although Lin Zhen was anxious about Xuan’er’s situation inside the hall, he knew he couldn’t be impatient. He had to get rid of Iron Granny, or he would never have peace!

So Lin Zhen stood in front of Iron Granny with the Sky-cutting Divine Sword, ready to make a move.

“Patter! Patter!”

Iron Granny was holding the prayer beads in her hand while bearing a murderous spirit on her face, staring intently at Lin Zhen.

“Lin Zhen, you’ve become famous at a young age, and your arrogance has reached the sky. You still don’t know that there’s always someone better out there. How dare you challenge me? I really want to know what you’re relying on.”

“What am I relying on? I’m relying on my strength!”

“Hahaha! How ridiculous! Your bit of strength is really not worth mentioning in my eyes.”

As Iron Granny spoke, her Star Power suddenly burst out!

It was not a earth-shattering burst, just a layer of starlight enveloping her, and the Star Power did not dissipate or involuntarily overflow. Even if there was some overflow, it was only a small part.

Lin Zhen was originally not interested in talking to her and was preparing to make a move, but he suddenly stopped!

“This is… a Divine Body!”

“Hehe, at least you have some insight. I know you got a Super Divine Body from the Divine Punishment Star, but I also know what a Super Divine Body can do, which is to exert 90% of your Star Power. But do you know that I have also experienced the last Divine Punishment Star?”

Lin Zhen didn’t respond, but he had heard from Xuan’er that Iron Granny had entered the Divine Punishment Star with over ten million Star Power, but she hadn’t obtained a Divine Body.

“It seems you know a little bit. That silly girl, Xuan’er, really tells you everything. However, I’m grateful that I kept a bit of insight and didn’t reveal everything.”

Iron Granny sneered, “You know what? To inherit the position of Sect Master of the Qingye Sect, one must have a Divine Body!”

“Just like Xuan’er today, I paid a huge price for getting this Advanced Divine Body, so a big family in the Original World that was well-known at the time fell apart. But I still got it, this advanced Divine Body that let me succeed!”

Lin Zhen gripped the sword in his hand; today’s battle was not going to be easy.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

“A Super Divine Body can exert 90% of your power, while my Advanced Divine Body can exert 80% of mine. I’ve checked your Star Power, and to my surprise, it is as high as thirty million!”

“But have you seen my Star Power? You can see it now, so you won’t be unconvinced when you lose later.”

Lin Zhen checked Iron Granny’s Star Power and was shocked to find that the old witch had reached a staggering 45 million!

Since both of them had Divine Bodies, their Star Power could not be doubled. Lin Zhen’s 100% utilization meant that his thirty million remained the same.

Iron Granny’s 80% utilization turned her 45 million into 36 million!

Lin Zhen was at a disadvantage in terms of Star Power!

Fortunately, the gap was not insurmountably huge. As long as Lin Zhen swallowed the Divine Power Pills, his Star Power could increase by 40%, reaching 42 million, which was still enough to defeat her.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhen didn’t hesitate and swallowed the Divine Power Pills immediately.

“Hahaha, taking medicine, are you? Lin Zhen, you’re still too naïve. As the Sect Master of the Qingye Sect, do you think I don’t have any elixirs and treasures? You eat, and I eat too. You still can’t pass my test, so just obediently watch Xuan’er become someone else’s wife in the hall!”

Iron Granny swallowed an elixir too. This elixir could increase her power by 30%, albeit with significant side effects. Although it was not as good as Lin Zhen’s Divine Power Pills, it was almost the same.

Lin Zhen’s power increased to 42 million, while hers increased to 46.8 million!

Lin Zhen still couldn’t beat her!

But Lin Zhen couldn’t wait any longer. The difference of more than 4 million Star Power was not the biggest factor determining victory or defeat. In the end, it still depended on the person’s fighting ability. Lin Zhen had defeated people with Star Power stronger than his own many times before.

No longer wasting time with the old woman, Lin Zhen swung the Sky-cutting Divine Sword and advanced.

“Old hag, this sword comes from your Qingye Sect, right? Today, I’ll let you taste its might!”

Lin Zhen had great confidence in the Sky-cutting Divine Sword. As the best sword in Nan Liang and being in his hands, he believed he could defeat Iron Granny even if her Star Power exceeded his own.

But to his surprise, Iron Granny just smiled faintly, “Lin Zhen, you’re too naïve. This sword might work against others, but against me, it can only return to its true owner!”

Iron Granny raised her hand, and the prayer beads in her hand soared into the sky.

The prayer beads turned into a ring in the air, with golden runes on it, emitting a strong suction force that directly covered Lin Zhen’s Sky-cutting Divine Sword.

“What is this?” Lin Zhen couldn’t believe he might lose grip of the sword.

“My Qingye Sect has the Divine Sword, and also this sword ring. This sword has been with the sword ring since the creation of the world, and it’s a heritage treasure of our sect. How could I let it go without any precautions? If the person wielding the sword attacks me, I will take it back!”

After speaking, Iron Granny’s Star Power erupted, and the sword ring rapidly spun again, stealing Lin Zhen’s longsword right away!

Iron Granny reached out, and the longsword fell into her hands, and at the same time, the sword ring hovered above her head.

“The Sky-cutting Divine Sword and its sword ring, one for offense and one for defense, are invincible. Lin Zhen, you are now empty-handed, show me what you can do against me!”

With a flick of the Sky-cutting Sword, a formidable Sword Light broke the air, making it difficult for Lin Zhen to evade, forcing him to dodge.

Iron Granny struck with incredible power, showing off her formidable strength.

With her Star Power surpassing Lin Zhen’s and the Divine Sword in hand, she quickly forced Lin Zhen into a desperate retreat!

“Lin Zhen! Why aren’t you fighting back? What about your Black Hole? Try using it!”

Lin Zhen had exposed his Black Hole Devour technique in several occasions, so it was no longer a secret.

Since Iron Granny dared to come, she must have a perfect plan.

Lin Zhen guessed that her reliance was the sword ring, which was a treasure that existed since the beginning of time and often had miraculous effects. He didn’t know if the sword ring could withstand the Black Hole Devour, but he dared not try recklessly.

If he succeeded, it’d be good, but if he failed, he would be killed on the spot by Iron Granny during the transformation!

Having come this far, Lin Zhen couldn’t take the risk, even if Iron Granny was bluffing.

Swish, swish, swish~~!!

The Sky-cutting Sword in Iron Granny’s hand was even more powerful than when Iron Third Lady wielded it, with lethal Sword Qi in every stroke. Although Lin Zhen had an Immortal Spiritual Body, he didn’t want to taste the pain of being wounded easily. After all, without a weapon, he could be continuously injured once he was hurt.

He unleashed his Seven Stars Knife to strike, but it was knocked away one by one by Iron Granny’s Sky-cutting Sword, having no effect.

“Young man, you don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth! If you had advanced to the King of the World Peak, I might have feared you a little, but a Third Level World King, how can you fight me at the peak of Longevity! Die!”

A sword attack came, Lin Zhen teleported away, but Iron Granny forcefully interrupted!

The opponent also had Dark Gold-Level Spiritual Power, and it was the Dark Gold Middle Stage!

The teleportation failed, Lin Zhen finally took a sword hit, leaving a massive wound on his chest!

The People of Nan Liang, who had been suppressed for a long time, finally cheered out loud.

Their Iron Granny was still the strongest, having Lin Zhen in trouble right away. In this way, killing Lin Zhen was only a matter of time!

At this moment, Lin Zhen was driven to desperation, feeling terrible since none of his techniques worked. Helplessly, Lin Zhen made a bold move and unleashed the Destructive God Thunder!

“Old hag! Taste this!”

With a wave of his hands, a Divine Thunder roared down!

As the Destructive God Thunder was unleashed, the sky changed, and dark Divine Thunder split the dark clouds, striking directly at Iron Granny’s head!

Iron Granny, who had just been rampaging, let out a miserable scream and was knocked backward!

A tremendous explosion erupted, and smoke filled the air!

But Lin Zhen’s heart turned cold because the Destructive God Thunder did not kill Iron Granny!

In the smoke, a flag fluttered above Iron Granny’s head, while the sword ring seemed tarnished and dull, but it didn’t fall down.

A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and Iron Granny looked at Lin Zhen with a ferocious expression.

“Good lad! You do have some skills. If it weren’t for my sword ring protecting me and the Advanced Divine Body from the Flying Bird Flag, this strike would’ve taken my life.”

What an amazing treasure!

Lin Zhen’s eyes narrowed, annoyed by the old hag’s sword ring. As long as it wasn’t taken down, he wouldn’t win today.

No matter! Whether it’s one thunder or three, fight to the end today!

Lin Zhen raised his hand again, and the second Divine Thunder roared down!

Iron Granny screamed miserably, her body swaying unsteadily, looking extremely pale. She didn’t expect Lin Zhen’s Divine Thunder to be so powerful. Treasures could fundamentally change a person’s combat power, and she thought that having the sword ring would make her invincible, yet now she was about to be defeated by Lin Zhen.

Before she could react, Lin Zhen’s third Divine Thunder fell!

With a crack, the luminous aura of Iron Granny’s sword ring disappeared, transformed into a small bracelet shape, and finally fell to the ground with a clang!

Iron Granny tried to pick it up, but Lin Zhen wouldn’t let her get the sword ring again. He quickly cast a gravity force, snatching the sword ring first and placing it into the Dark Star Space.

“Lin Zhen! I’ll fight you to the death!”

Iron Granny was finally scared. If Lin Zhen had another Divine Thunder, she would undoubtedly die. To prevent Lin Zhen’s Divine Thunder and his Black Hole Beast transformation, Iron Granny staked everything, concentrating all her life’s powers on this one sword, sticking to Lin Zhen like a tarsal maggot!

“Even without the sword ring, I still have this sword. You have nothing, and you are still no match for me, Lin Zhen! You have no chance!”
