There were a total of eighteen intersections in the Geocentric Purgatory.
These eighteen intersections were in no particular order. Lin Zhen was the seventeenth from the left. If he were to count from the right, he would be the second.
The nine intersections on the right were of a single elemental attribute. Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, and a dark energy intersection. There were a total of nine.
Most warriors who came to train would head to the right intersection. After all, beasts of a single attribute were easier to deal with, and the energy inside was easier to resist.
The nine intersections on the left were more difficult.
The first of these nine intersections had two types of elemental energy, water and fire. Two extreme elements gathered together, making it very difficult to survive.
The second intersection had three types of elemental energy, and the third had four types.
At the eighth intersection, all types of elemental energy were surging. If one wanted to survive here, then one must be prepared to die at any time.
The ninth intersection was known as the Forbidden Death Zone. Not only were there all types of elemental energy, but these elemental energies had even formed chaotic airflows that roamed everywhere. It was comparable to a Heavenly Tribulation!
The deeper one went, the stronger the chaotic airflows. Ever since the Geocentric Purgatory appeared, no one had truly gone beyond the ninth intersection. They did not even know what was inside.
Nine out of ten people who entered this place were dead.
Lin Zhen wanted to break through and become a god. He wanted to try the path of multi-elemental energy and accept the impact of the powerful elemental turbulence. From there, he could convert the energy for his own use, making his breakthrough more satisfying.
He calculated his current survival ability and felt that he should be able to survive the impact of six or seven types of elemental energy.
He should choose one of the five, six, and seven intersections. As for the eighth all-elemental intersection and the ninth chaotic airflow entrance, Lin Zhen did not think about them.
One should not bite off more than one could chew. People who were too greedy would often die from overeating.
After making his decision, Lin Zhen forcefully suppressed his desire to break through and left the lightning-elemental area, preparing to head to the intersection safety zone.
After flying for about a day, Lin Zhen returned to the lightning-elemental entrance.
"I'll challenge myself. Go to the seventh intersection and try the place where all eight types of elemental energy gather. This time, to break through and become a god, I must at least directly pass the initial stage of becoming a god and stabilize at early-stage lowgod."
During this period of time, Lin Zhen had also seen quite a few people who had broken through to Godhood on their own. Those who could break through to Godhood on their own were almost twice as strong as those who had broken through using divine crystals.
Normally, for those who used God Crystals to become Gods, the threshold to become a Lower God was 10 billion Star Points, which was 100,000 God Crystals.
The threshold for becoming a God was two hundred thousand units of divine power.
The threshold for becoming a Highgod of godgems was four hundred thousand units of divine power.
If they broke through on their own, their divine power could reach 200,000.
In other words, a self-made Demigod would have the power of a God-level God.
As for Gods who broke through on their own, their divine power level would reach four hundred thousand, roughly the same as a Highgod who had godgems.
Highgods who made their own breakthroughs would have at least eight hundred thousand units of divine power, and their power would double.
Lin Zhen currently had twelve billion astral powers. If he broke through, he would have one hundred and twenty thousand astral powers.
Of course, after becoming a God, one's astral powers would definitely skyrocket. There was a fundamental difference between becoming a God and not becoming a God. After breaking through on their own, their power would at least double. In other words, Lin Zhen's minimum requirement for breaking through on his own was two hundred and forty thousand units of divine power.
However, Lin Zhen felt that he might exceed this number. After all, when one's power was overflowing, they would definitely be above ordinary warriors.
After deciding to go to the seventh intersection, Lin Zhen put on the Lightning Cloak and walked into the safe zone.
*****
Three God Crystals mid-level Gods and twenty-seven Lower Gods had been waiting here for a long time.
Among the three, one was a mid-level God Crystal mid-level God, while the other two were early-level God Crystals.
These people were bored to death. Some were standing guard, while the majority were cultivating where they were.
When the people who were watching saw them, some of them felt it was strange and took a few more glances. However, when they saw the Eight Great Hammers symbol on their chests, they immediately averted their gazes.
The Eight Great Hammers wasn't some charity organization. It was a gang that killed without batting an eye. They didn't want to cause any trouble.
However, most people were already used to their existence and turned a blind eye to them.
They were waiting here for orders from their superiors, waiting for Lin Zhen to appear.
Suddenly, they received an order at the same time.
"Attention! A target has appeared. Fifteen meters to the left, splash ink! "
The leader of the mid-level Gods immediately stood up. His eyes shone with excitement as he immediately made his move.
They had waited for too long. If not for Wang Chong's generous reward, they wouldn't have waited any longer. After several decades, someone had finally appeared!
"Brothers, there's a situation! Move! "
He was the first to make his move. A bag of ink that he had prepared beforehand was thrown out at a speed close to light speed!
As he made his move, several dozen bags of ink immediately enveloped the space within a radius of several dozen meters.
Under the precise control of these gods, there wasn't the slightest gap in the area covered by the ink. Not even a fly would be able to escape. There was no gap at all!
As soon as Lin Zhen came out, he immediately saw an overwhelming amount of ink flying toward him.
He immediately knew that this was a trap set up by Wang Chong.
Although he didn't know how Wang Chong had discovered him, after so many years, if Wang Chong still couldn't think of a way to deal with him, then he was truly a good-for-nothing.
But too much time had passed, and Lin Zhen himself had somewhat forgotten about this matter. He hadn't expected Wang Chong to still be here.
There was no way to dodge the ink, and Lin Zhen didn't want his cape to be contaminated, so he immediately put it away and revealed himself.
As soon as the mental shield was activated, all the ink landed outside the shield.
The ink couldn't possibly have any killing power. They had only been used to confirm whether it was Lin Zhen or not. Now that Lin Zhen had revealed himself, their goal had been achieved.
"Reporting! Lin Zhen has appeared! "
"Move out! No matter what, delay him. We'll be there in three minutes."
Wang Chong's excited voice came from the other dimension, and he immediately led two of his subordinates over.
"Brothers, let's go! The opportunity to make money has come. Kill Lin Zhen, and the young master will reward you handsomely! "
Thirty gods, including three Intermediate Gods, immediately attacked Lin Zhen.
Moreover, these gods acted very methodically. Eighteen of them specifically blocked all the exits, while the remaining twelve were responsible for attacking. They had to ensure that nothing went wrong and they couldn't give Lin Zhen another chance to escape.
Lin Zhen knew that he didn't have much time.
Since Wang Chong could arrange so many people to guard this place, they would be here soon. From the safe zone outside, it would take less than three minutes to reach here.
Although Lin Zhen was conceited, before he became a god, even against a God Crystal Highgod like Wang Chong, he didn't have any chance of victory.
Thus, he only had less than three minutes left. He had to leave in three minutes!
