Outside Lin Zhen's tent, there was a tent that had always been occupied.
This tent had the symbol of a giant warhammer on it. Lin Zhen's tent also had a red symbol of a warhammer on it.
When ordinary warriors saw it, they would immediately turn around and leave, and show sympathy for Lin Zhen's tent.
The owner of this tent was unlucky enough to be targeted by the Eight Great Hammers. It seemed that he was doomed.
The red warhammer meant that the Eight Great Hammers were going to attack someone, just like a kill order.
The safe zone prohibited violence, but it did not prevent them from issuing a kill order to Lin Zhen.
Other warriors did not want to provoke the Eight Great Hammers, so they all moved away from Lin Zhen's tent. People could not stay in the safe zone all the time, and it was better to avoid trouble.
Only Lin Zhen's tent and another tent dedicated to monitoring Lin Zhen were left. The Raging Fire Ancestor volunteered to take on the task of monitoring Lin Zhen.
But this monitoring lasted for three whole years!
For three years, Lin Zhen did not leave his tent.
*****
Three years for others was 72 years for Lin Zhen!
Lin Zhen had originally thought that with his Time Deceleration, he would be able to cultivate the first level of the Nine Tribulations Star Scripture in a year or even half a year at most. However, he had not expected that it would take him three years.
It was not until the end of the third year that Lin Zhen completed most of the cultivation of the first level of the Nine Tribulations Star Codex.
His talent, comprehension, and foundation were very solid. He did not stop until he felt that he would trigger the Heavenly Tribulation if he continued.
"I still underestimated this hundred-year task. Almost everyone who has cultivated to this point has some ability to decelerate time. It is really difficult to complete the requirement of being a five-star Purgatory Warrior within a hundred years."
"But this time's cultivation is very rewarding."
Lin Zhen stopped cultivating and checked the results of the past three years.
His body cells had reached the limit of the first level of the Star Codex.
Especially his hands, as long as he exerted a little force, a layer of dark golden luster would appear.
This was the effect brought about by the mutated starry sky ripper's genes. Lin Zhen's hands were now weapons that weren't inferior to his spear.
At the same time, his cell vitality, reaction speed, and so on were also improved.
"Let's test the results of the past three years."
After entering the Dimensional Universe, Lin Zhen arrived at the designated virtual battlefield.
His virtual opponent was himself from three years ago.
Compared to three years ago, Lin Zhen's astral power hadn't improved. Except for his genes, everything else was the same.
In the yellow sand battlefield, a person who looked exactly like him appeared.
Virtual Lin Zhen held Drunken Spear and Two-headed Snake in his hands. His body had already transformed into armor and he was in an extremely good state.
Lin Zhen himself didn't use any weapons. Instead, he moved his body and charged straight at the virtual Lin Zhen to attack.
A cold light flashed in front of his eyes. The virtual Lin Zhen's Trembling Spear Style shot out spear lights that filled the sky. Among them, there were real and fake spear shadows that were impossible to guard against.
"Speed up!"
Lin Zhen exerted strength in his legs. His body was like a cannonball as he crashed into the spear shadows. This was his ultimate move. He knew how to counter it.
His hands waved. His palms collided with the spear, producing a series of clanking sounds.
Lin Zhen's palms were covered in white spots. Surprisingly, they weren't pierced by the Two-headed Snake.
"Space Slash!"
Lin Zhen shook his hands. Several crescent-shaped space slashes flew out. The virtual Lin Zhen had no choice but to dodge. At the same time, their bodies intersected!
When experts exchanged blows, it was only an instant.
At this moment, Lin Zhen discovered the difference between his original self and his current self.
His speed and reaction speed had completely surpassed himself from three years ago. That originally incomparably fast spear technique was now full of flaws.
Seizing the opportunity, he attacked with lightning speed. A series of hand blades at close range!
"Ka ka ka ~ ~!"
The virtual Lin Zhen used Immovable Mountain to block, but he was still hit by a palm strike!
The Mutated Galaxy Ripper genes were activated. With one strike, one of the virtual Lin Zhen's arms was cut off.
Even if the Indestructible Tyrant Body quickly recovered and the virtual Lin Zhen tried his best to delay the attack, Lin Zhen's speed and strength were overwhelming in all aspects. Moreover, none of the virtual Lin Zhen's moves could cause any damage to him.
He followed up like a maggot, not giving the virtual Lin Zhen any chance to breathe. The Mantis Blade combined with Lin Zhen's sword technique created a great deal of damage.
After the Divine Infant blocked the virtual Divine Infant's dying counterattack, Lin Zhen succeeded. After a few flashes of the blade, the virtual Lin Zhen was cut into several pieces!
Before the Indestructible Tyrant Body could take effect, a ball of energy exploded and completely vaporized the virtual Lin Zhen.
After escaping from the dimensional universe, Lin Zhen let out a long sigh.
Thirty seconds!
In thirty seconds, Lin Zhen had killed the version of himself from three years ago.
The increase in his basic attributes was a huge boost to the current Lin Zhen's strength. No matter how much he resisted three years ago and how much his speed and strength fell behind, there was no way he could have stood a chance.
Of course, there was another reason. Lin Zhen knew his own battle techniques like the back of his hand. That was why everything went so smoothly.
"Nine Tribulations Star Canon, Life Genes … What a powerful cultivation method. Looks like I'll have to cultivate my body and Astral Power at the same time in the future."
However, Lin Zhen knew that his strength was still unstable. Moreover, if he didn't pass the Heavenly Tribulation, his Life Genes cultivation would stop there, and he wouldn't be able to improve anymore.
The Heavenly Tribulation was a chaotic aura that tested a cultivator's absolute strength. It wasn't that easy to pass.
Lin Zhen saw some of the famous people in the Demonic Star dimensional universe who had passed several Heavenly Tribulations. How many Heavenly Tribulations they had passed and how many Purgatory Warriors they had become were also important standards to measure a cultivator's strength.
There were several ways to pass the Heavenly Tribulation. First, there were some tools that could resist the Heavenly Tribulation's power.
Second, there were experienced people who could protect him and provide some support.
Lin Zhen had just arrived at the Demonic Star and didn't know anyone. He couldn't find a suitable person to protect him, so he wanted to buy some tools.
Lin Zhen opened the dimensional universe's store and wanted to choose some goods.
However, as soon as he opened it, he received a message.
"Hello, Mr. Lin Zhen. I'm XXX from the Demonic Star Bank. I'm here to remind you that you should repay the loan as soon as possible. Otherwise, the bank will freeze your account. I'm afraid it will cause you inconvenience."
Lin Zhen was stunned. He had taken a loan of one million, but the term of the loan was ten years.
It had only been three years. Why was the bank coming to collect the loan?
Lin Zhen immediately contacted the bank staff and asked about the situation.
The other party gave a quick reply.
Because Lin Zhen had been ordered to be killed by the Eight Sledgehammers, the bank was worried about his ability to repay the loan. Therefore, they wanted him to repay the loan as soon as possible.
