Age of Evolution

Chapter 592: Chapter 593: Wormhole Reopens

Quite a few people gathered around Ke Xiangnan, who were all from the Galaxy Beast Alliance.

To everyone’s eyes, the first place in the Black Hole Period would undoubtedly belong to Ke Xiangnan.

The current second-rank Martial Artist in the Black Hole Period, Heavenly Gate, had a result of only 620,000 kilometers, far behind Ke Xiangnan’s 890,000 kilometers, making it impossible to surpass.

Since Lin Zhen’s escape, the gloom on Ke Xiangnan’s face had also completely vanished, and his cultivation speed increased day by day.

Entering the Original World as the first in the Black Hole Period, the Fire Kirin Clan would definitely prioritize cultivating Ke Xiangnan, and they might need to rely on Ke Xiangnan’s care in the future.

Although these Martial Artists were considered elites in the universe, they were all fearful when going to an unknown new world, and it was good to be able to lean on a big tree.

It had been ten years since Lin Zhen had fled, and Ke Xiangnan’s cultivation would soon come to an end.

Today, the closed-off Ke Xiangnan would leave the retreat, and people believed that the firstborn of the Black Hole Period was about to be born.

*********

Inside the spaceship of the two brothers Ke Xiangdong and Ke Xiangnan, everyone was bustling around and preparing.

Ke Xiangdong, wearing an evening gown, looked at his brother trying on clothes.

“Xiangnan, today is your big day. How are your preparations? People from the Original World will be coming soon.”

Ke Xiangnan straightened his collar: “Speaking of this, I really admire you. How did you manage to get the message across to the Original World?”

“Haha! Actually, it’s quite simple. Dad has already secured a foothold in the Fire Kirin Clan. Initially, someone opened up a wormhole in the New World, and Dad allowed one of the clansmen to come through and contact me.”

“Oh! Dad is very resourceful, coming up with such incredible ideas.”

“Yes, and he also asked that clansman about your current cultivation situation. If you can win the first place in the Black Hole Period with honor, he will be there to meet you with some people from the Original World on the day you succeed.”

“Come to pick me up? Don’t tell me Dad has enough money to buy Wormhole Eggs so quickly?”

“Haha, I had the same question at the time, and the answer from Dad’s side was that he didn’t have that much money, but if you can win first place in the Black Hole Period, it’s worth the Fire Kirin Clan spending the money. If you can do it, the Fire Kirin Clan would rather consume a Wormhole Egg to let you pass gloriously. That’s the treatment worthy of being number one!”

Upon hearing this, Ke Xiangnan showed a proud smile on his face.

The gloom from being suppressed by Lin Zhen in the past had been swept away. To have someone from the Original World personally come to pick him up was an unprecedented great honor here in Heavenly Gate.

“So how did he know about the day of my departure?”

“I just kept an eye on your cultivation progress and let the people going to the Original World bring him the news. You set your departure date long ago, and I confirmed it with you several times. So we set this date in advance. As expected, your Star Power broke through 100,000 today, and you left seclusion right on schedule.”

Ke Xiangdong glanced at the time in the Dimensional Universe: “The appointment is at twelve noon. By then, you will see the wormhole appear, and the people from Original World will come. Dad said he has a surprise for you.”

Ke Xiangnan was also a bit impatient, checking the time: “There are still two hours left. Ha ha, after so many years of cultivation, it’s the first time I have felt that time is passing so slowly.”

“Don’t worry, good things are worth waiting for. Just wait a little longer, and with this momentum created, even if all of us go to the Original World, no one dares to offend our family in the New World.”

“Alright, let’s wait a little longer. We’ve been waiting for so many years; it doesn’t matter if we wait another two hours.”

The two brothers sat there, anxiously waiting for the time to come.

********

A group of people from the Star River Giant Beast Alliance gathered, chatting casually.

As fewer and fewer people were challenging Heavenly Gate, there was no competition due to the position here, and each Martial Artist had the opportunity almost every three to five months, creating a much more peaceful atmosphere overall.

During their free time, Martial Artists of different races would gather together to discuss and chat.

Almost no World Kings remained here, and those in the Domain King realm didn’t bother with the Star System Stage and the Black Hole Period, so the Star System Stage and the Black Hole Period Martial Artists formed a small circle.

“Hey, Ke Xiangnan is about to pass through the Heavenly Gate, and finally, someone succeeded in the Black Hole Period. Old friends here are getting fewer and fewer.”

“That’s quite normal, people naturally move up. Even though we’re separated now, we’ll have a chance to meet again in the Original World later on. If we all advance to the Longevity Realm by then, we can drink and celebrate together.”

“Haha, is it that easy to advance to the Longevity Realm? I’m afraid there won’t be even one successful person among a million.”

“My dream is to advance to Longevity. As long as I achieve that, I’ll return to the New World and enjoy eternal wealth and glory, and then marry a pretty wife like Miss Ling Shan! Hahaha!”

A group of Martial Artists laughed wildly, teasing female Martial Artists during their leisure time, which was one of the ways these bored people passed the time.

Zhu Lingshan, being a great beauty, was often the target of their teasing.

Zhu Lingshan didn’t get angry, and after smiling at them, her gaze crossed the crowd and fell on a Wolf Clan Martial Artist.

This Wolf Clan Martial Artist was in the Black Hole Period and had been cultivating among the crowd for years, but had never challenged the Heavenly Gate.

The Wolf Clan couldn’t possibly have handsome faces. This Martial Artist seemed to have a hideous face, but he wore a metal mask, so his real appearance couldn’t be seen.

Zhu Lingshan’s attention to this inconspicuous Wolf Clan Martial Artist was mainly because she felt he resembled someone.

A person who had already left, she couldn’t help but miss him.

Seeing Zhu Lingshan paying attention to the Wolf Clan Martial Artist again, a Tiger Clan Star System Stage Warrior said, “Miss Lingshan, I think your taste is really a bit off. We have handsome guys and stylish men here, and even strong men like me, but you don’t pay attention to any of them, and instead focus on that ugly Wolf Clan guy.”

“If he was strong, that would be one thing, but he’s just a Black Hole Period warrior.”

“Not only is he just a Black Hole Period warrior, but also someone who doesn’t even dare to break through the Heavenly Gate once, ugly, weak, and timid as a mouse. Why are you paying attention to him?”

Zhu Lingshan glared at the Tiger Clan Warrior, “It’s none of your business!”

Over the years, Zhu Lingshan’s progress had also been rapid, as a Tier Nine Star System warrior, her Star Power had increased all the way to over 40,000, which was definitely not low among those in the Star System Stage.

After the opening of the Heavenly Gate, cultivating here allowed one to absorb the aura from the Original World, even if they couldn’t break through the Heavenly Gate, their cultivation would be much easier than before, so everyone’s Star Power upper limit had greatly increased.

The era where someone like Luo Gou, with over 20,000 Star Power dominating an arena, was long gone.

This also indirectly proved how powerful the Martial Artists of the Original World were.

So far, even if some warriors had no hope of passing the Heavenly Gate, they remained here to cultivate.

The Tiger Clan Warrior didn’t dare to offend Zhu Lingshan, so he could only glare fiercely at the cultivating Wolf Clan Martial Artist and thought of finding an opportunity to teach that kid a lesson.

However, he had received some inside information that something big was supposed to happen today. He wasn’t clear about the specifics, but seeing so many people gathered around to flatter Ke Xiangnan, the matter shouldn’t be small.

*

Lin Zhen was among the crowd, where all the noise around him was irrelevant as if there was a barrier separating him from the outside world, allowing him to fully immerse himself in cultivation.

After ten years, his cultivation had come to a crucial point.

The sound of tremors emanated from the Dark Star World within his body, and its boundaries were expanding with thunderous rumbles.

This process was about opening a bigger world to hold more power.

“It’s time!”

When the opening of the Dark Star World reached a critical point, Lin Zhen could clearly receive the signal.

Spiritual Power started rotating, and 99% of his Cui Mang power began pouring into the second Constant Star in his body – Yue Bei Star.

It was becoming progressively difficult to improve Spiritual Power. So far, Lin Zhen had not seen any Black Hole Period or Star System Stage warriors reaching the Complete Cui Mang Realm.

However, some of the top-tier Star System Stage warriors possessed the same 99% Cui Mang power as Lin Zhen.

Going from 99% to completion was a major hurdle.

Having made all the necessary preparations, Lin Zhen opened up the star map of Yue Bei Star.

As he unlocked the protective seal, the Star Power belonging to Yue Bei Star surged out instantly.

Having experienced this once before, Lin Zhen wasn’t overly surprised. He calmly adjusted his power to quickly adapt to the additional Star Power within his Dantian.

Waves of Star Power washed over Lin Zhen’s Dantian, swaying back and forth as his Star Power soared.

Initially, when he illuminated the Ying Huo Star, Lin Zhen’s Star Power had surged by 44,000. The power of Yue Bei Star was slightly stronger than Ying Huo Star, but not by much, resulting in a 50,000 increase in Star Power!

50,000 Star Power, what an enormous number! As all the Star Power was released, every orifice on Lin Zhen’s body including his nose, eyes, and other pores, opened wide!

It was like a steamer basket filled with holes suddenly releasing steam, except the steam was the brilliant Star Power!

This sudden change startled everyone around!

“What the hell! Did he break through?”

“Watch out, he’s about to explode!”

“Oh my god, is this the kind of Star Power a Black Hole Period warrior has? What a powerful sense of oppression!”

“No way, is this quiet Wolf Clan kid who hasn’t said a word in ten years about to erupt?”

People were dodging in all directions, but none of them knew what was happening to Lin Zhen.

They had witnessed Star Power eruptions, but they had never seen one like this that resembled an explosion.

Zhu Lingshan heard the sound and looked over, but before she could see anything, a sudden loud roar came from the other side.

“Look, a wormhole!”

All eyes were drawn to the sound.

In the wine-red Star Nebula beside the Heavenly Gate, the canopy suddenly opened!

In an instant, the fragrance of the celestial environment fell, and amidst the symphony of drums, a group of people who clearly didn’t belong to the New World Universe appeared!
