The speed of Lin Zhen's thundercloud made Shadow Killer, who was at the Perfection Stage, feel powerless.
At this moment, he was extremely regretful.
He had made some mistakes in this battle, which was to underestimate his opponent. If it was in the past, these things wouldn't be considered mistakes. He could still succeed with his powerful strength at the Perfection Stage.
However, Lin Zhen's performance was beyond his expectations. The series of Shadowless Steps was still fresh in Shadow Killer's mind.
His sword technique and his super fast thundercloud had refreshed Shadow Killer's understanding of Lin Zhen.
"This guy is only at the pinnacle of the Celestial Realm. If he enters the Divine Stone, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to win.
"No, this person must be eliminated. Although he has run away now, he still has to go to Skyfire City and participate in the Skyfire War. He can run away, but the temple can't!"
However, Shadow Killer couldn't chase after him now. The battle just now had injured him quite badly. In order to interrupt Lin Zhen's sudden outburst, he had forcefully activated his bloodline power and was injured.
"Lin Zhen, I hope you won't be killed by others during this period. I'll leave your life with you for now. When I've recovered, I'll take it myself!"
Shadow Killer found a hidden asteroid and began to recuperate.
*****
Lin Zhen rode the thundercloud and left the area of the exploding star. He looked back at the light figure in the starry sky that was getting further and further away from him.
It was a pity that he couldn't take advantage of the exploding star this time. The advancement of the Divine Stone would have to be delayed for a few more days.
Shadowslay's ability to artificially create a Stellar Explosion also shocked him.
If it weren't for the breakthrough in his sword technique and Shadowless Steps, he might have died in this battle within the star.
The strength of a Perfection Stage expert was indeed terrifying.
"It seems that Fifth Senior Brother wasn't entirely right. He said that it's almost impossible to meet a Perfection Stage expert, but I met one before I even reached Skyfire City. It seems that some people see me as a thorn in their side."
As for who hired Shadow Killer, Lin Zhen believed that it was most likely the Endless Race.
After leaving the star area, his injuries began to recover. Lin Zhen put away the thundercloud and boarded the Glaze again, heading straight for Skyfire City.
On the flying ship, Lin Zhen began to check on the recent situation in Sky Fire City.
The day of the Heavenly Fire Great War was only a few months away. Many people from both sides had already gathered in the Heavenly Fire Continent.
Through the Dimensional Universe, Lin Zhen could clearly see that the entire Skyfire Continent was packed with people.
Experts from all over the two races had gathered here, forming an unprecedentedly large crowd.
According to the statistics of the Dimensional Universe, the number of people participating in the battle from both sides had already exceeded ten billion!
Below the God realm and above, nearly half of those at the Divine Transformation realm and above were gathered here. If one side lost then it was likely they would never be able to make a comeback.
Not only would they lose their momentum, but they would also lose their potential and future.
The battleground was the entire Skyfire Continent.
The Skyfire Continent covered an area of 3,000 kilometers, and in the direction of the countless races, there was a city called Demon City, which was the bridgehead of the countless races.
The surface races also had a city called the Holy Capital. It was the bridgehead of the surface races.
The battle had yet to begin, but the people in Heaven Fire City had already begun to evacuate.
The neighbors who usually got along well with each other no longer communicated with each other.
Everyone knew in their hearts that once this battle was fought, it was very likely that one side would suffer a crushing defeat, and their lives as neighbors would basically come to an end.
Many people left Heaven Fire City, and after returning to their own race's camp, they immediately signed up to participate in the battle.
Heaven Fire City also gradually became an empty city.
After Lin Zhen flew for another three months, and when he was close to the Skyfire Continent, the Gods made their move.
Hundreds of Gods appeared from both races, and they worked together to display great magic power, forcibly separating Heaven Fire City from the center of the continent, and then quietly hiding it in the Dimensional Universe.
When Heaven Fire City disappeared, the continent lost its connection point and began to rumble and split apart.
Heaven Fire City was the center point that connected the Skyfire Continent. Its disappearance directly led to the separation of the continent.
Under the shocked gazes of countless people, the Skyfire Continent split into two. The original location of Heaven Fire City and the surrounding area formed a narrow space that was tens of millions of kilometers wide.
The God hiding Heaven Fire City also announced that this space would be called the Celestial Boundary River in the future, and it would also be the boundary river of the two races.
After the appearance of this boundary river, the battle method that had not been decided on before was confirmed.
The method was very simple. The two races would each prepare for battle in their own areas, and after the battle began, they would kill at will.
When one side was completely wiped out, or their own city was occupied, the battle would be declared a failure.
Originally, Demon City and Holy Capital were just small cities compared to Sky Fire City, but now, they had become incomparably important.
After the battle ended, Heaven Fire City would be released again, and the victorious side would have jurisdiction over Heaven Fire City.
As for the people from both sides, they continued to enter the Skyfire Continent.
On the side of the surface races, they came from various cities in the Endless Sea of Stars, and hermits from the Primordial Realm's surface. They all left their places of seclusion, and used various methods to head to the Skyfire Continent.
Participating in the Skyfire War had extremely high risks, but there were also huge benefits.
Participating in the war, as long as you could survive, regardless of whether you won or not, as long as you killed enough enemies, there would be extremely generous rewards.
It was said that those who ranked at the top could even directly gain the favor of the Ruler, and become his disciple.
To the entire Primordial Realm's martial artists, the Ruler was a supreme existence.
A spot to become a Ruler's disciple was something that could not be exchanged for no matter how much money one had. Just this spot alone was enough to make everyone in the world risk their lives.
*****
Lin Zhen's Veluriyam finally arrived at the edge of the Skyfire Continent.
In the distance, at the edge of the continent, red light pervaded, and fire energy rose.
In the red light, a city was faintly discernible.
That was the bridgehead of the surface races, and also their final base, Sheng Du City.
This was a city that had to be protected. If this city was captured, the Skyfire War would be over.
Just as they approached the edge of the Skyfire Continent, flying machines came to greet them.
"Halt, register!"
Lin Zhen's Veluriyam stopped, and several Divine Stone Stage martial artists came to greet them with flying machines.
A device was activated, and an electric wave swept through Lin Zhen's Veluriyam.
"Ah! It's Lord Lin Zhen! "
These martial artists hurriedly bowed to Lin Zhen.
As one of the top three members of the Hall of the Exalted, Lin Zhen had great fame and status among the surface races. It was fine if he didn't announce his identity, but now that he did, there weren't many who dared to be disrespectful to Lin Zhen.
"Can I pass?" Lin Zhen lightly asked.
"Of course you can. My Lord, you should directly enter the city. Outside the city are just some peripheral personnel. The true elites are inside the Sheng Du City. Many Hall of the Exalted masters have already arrived."
Lin Zhen nodded. The flying machine accelerated, and directly passed through the border guards' defensive zone.
The flying machine flew at a low altitude. Lin Zhen could clearly see the dense crowd below, like ants.
In the past, all of these lofty and lofty Divine Transformation realm masters were great figures of their respective regions. But now, they were no different from ordinary soldiers or adventurers, waiting for the great battle to begin.
The border guards had already sent back the news. Lin Zhen's flying machine didn't encounter any obstacles above the city wall and directly arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.
According to the instructions, Lin Zhen landed in the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
As soon as he landed, a group of people came out.
"Hahaha! Lin Zhen is here. With you around, we'll have a greater chance of winning this battle. "
Lin Zhen looked and saw that the person who spoke was actually Xiong Jing.
The number one member of the Hall of the Exalted of the surface races, the second place of the Hall of the Exalted Battle between the two races, and he had only lost to Dong Xuehan.
Beside Xiong Jing were Ye Xingcai, Craneshadow, Anluo Qi, Augustine, and the others.
Behind them were the Giant Dragon King, Sky Sword Artist, Bai Yunyan, and the others.
Everyone came over to chat with Lin Zhen. Although Lin Zhen was the youngest, he had become the main character at this moment.
During the conversation, everyone felt a little shocked. After not seeing each other for a few decades, Lin Zhen was still at the peak of the Divinity Realm. However, just by standing there, he was like a sea of stars. His strength was unfathomable.
It seemed that Lin Zhen hadn't been idle these years. His strength had definitely improved by leaps and bounds.
Xiong Jing chatted with Lin Zhen as they walked, and the group went straight into the room.
There were already a few dozen people in the room. Lin Zhen glanced at them. They were all familiar faces. They were all members of the Hall of the Exalted.
However, Lin Zhen couldn't remember the names of those who were ranked at the bottom. Whenever someone greeted him, Crazy would remind him in his mind who that person was.
She didn't want Lin Zhen to appear arrogant if he didn't remember.
"Take a seat, brother. We don't have anything important to do for now. We just sit here and wait every day, counting the days until the battle starts. It's quite boring."
Lin Zhen was stunned. "Could it be that the main matters of the battle haven't been decided yet?"
"What's there to decide? We've only decided to cross the Celestial River and take down Magic City. Nothing else has been decided. The most important thing now is to expand the Hall of the Exalted."
"Expand? How? "Lin Zhen was puzzled.
"Hehe, of course it's because some old guys don't want to be left out. This battle will be broadcasted in the Dimensional Universe. The main kills of the Hall of the Exalted warriors will be seen by the entire universe. These people want to enter the Hall of the Exalted temporarily and make a name for themselves in this battle."
Lin Zhen suddenly understood.
It turned out that some of the veteran warriors in the past were now participating in the Heavenly Fire War. They didn't want to be left out and were ready to make a name for themselves again.
This was understandable. These veteran warriors were basically Demigods. They had no hope of becoming Gods and had lost their pursuits. They had been forgotten for too long.
It was normal for them to want to make a name for themselves by using the Heavenly Fire War.
