"Phew! Purgatory is too hard. I've already reached comet level 8, but my completion rate is only 19%. I can't even reach 20%. "
Lin Zhen put away his Yin Yang Spear and sighed at the perverse difficulty of Purgatory.
"Master, don't be greedy. You have to know that you're only at comet level. Other people at your level are still in normal difficulty, but you've already reached Purgatory."
Lin Zhen froze. He realized that he had unknowingly led people at the same level by so much.
Don't even mention comet level, Lin Zhen didn't even care about normal star level cultivators. After all, he wasn't just a comet level cultivator. He had the dark star in his body. With the combination of the two star forces, his star power was comparable to normal star level cultivators.
With his various tricks, it would be hard to find a match for him in the star level.
Lin Zhen calculated the time. There was only one month left until the World Stone began.
"Time really flies. In the blink of an eye, another year has passed. I've already been training in the simulation field for ten months."
"Master, do you want to go out now?" Chris asked.
"Let's not go out yet. There's still a month left. I've calculated that I can use this time to break through to comet level 9 and go out then. There's still a few days left. It's enough for me to prepare."
"Master, I suggest you buy mithril essence now. After you break through to comet level 9 and use fire copper essence once, you'll break through to satellite level. It'll take three months in the World Stone. You need to buy mithril essence for the first two times."
Lin Zhen nodded. In his dark star space, he had used all his qilin coins to exchange for 3 river dollars to buy fire copper essence.
60 billion qilin coins. Exchanging for 3 river dollars was 60 trillion. He had spent it just like that!
"Mm, you're right. I'll buy it. But mithril essence is too expensive. 100,000 per gram. Training in the satellite level has basically emptied my wallet."
"Master, as long as you have the power, you can get it no matter how much money you want. This World Stone is an opportunity. That's why power is the most important thing."
"You're right. Let's buy it now."
During this period of time, Lin Zhen didn't completely cultivate. When he had nothing else to do, he would exchange the currencies of the various high-grade universe countries into Qilin dollars.
Now that he had exchanged for qilin coins again, Lin Zhen had bought enough mithril essence to cultivate to the Planet Star Stage.
The high level universe country currency he obtained from the world stone had been used up by over half, other than leaving behind 100 million each as a souvenir, Lin Zhen only had 100 billion Qilin dollars left.
"Although 100 billion Qilin coins is enough, compared to before, it's like going back to before liberation."
While Lin Zhen was buying the mithril essence, he took the time to check out the situation outside.
Right now, the Hundred River Star was in a state of turmoil. The number of people from the various major powers participating in the World Stone challenge was simply as many as the hairs on an ox.
They had recruited experts from all over the world, and spared no expense to recruit them. They were planning to make enough profits from this war.
When the experts gathered together, there would be more fights. At this time, the Galactic Beast Alliance that Lin Zhen was in didn't do much.
This was because the Galactic Beast Alliance mainly looked at genes. Only those with the right genes would be able to enter. Hence, there were very few of them, making them seem weak.
The other powers also didn't put the Galactic Beast Alliance in their eyes.
Hence, during this period of time, the news outside was about the deeds of certain experts. Some of them had already shone brightly and stood out. They were hailed as strong contenders for the World Stone winner.
Lin Zhen didn't have time to care about the outside world for now. He used the last month to train hard.

"Latest news, latest news, the World Stone map has been exposed!"
"Yellow Springs Ghastly Land's complete guide, internal information, 1000 dollars a copy!"
"Be careful of Tong Tian Tower's enemies. Jin Hao Nan said that he will snipe their enemies at the River of Three Roads."
"Dragon Totem's experts have all appeared. This means that they will obtain at least 5 spots in the top 20!"
"The only expert Holly has been expelled. The Galactic Beast Alliance's talents have withered this year. Everyone is looking down on them. I'm afraid they won't be able to get anything."
News about the World Stone flooded the internet, covering the sky and covering the earth.
In addition to the statements of the various powers, a lot of information about the experts was also spread.
Almost every power had a leader and a key target.
In order to ensure that these key people could walk out of the Yellow Springs Ghastly Land smoothly, the various powers sent out many experts to protect them.
For the World Stone this time, the strongest person was at the Black Hole Stage. The weakest person was at the peak of the Planet Stage.
Ghosts ran rampant in the Yellow Springs Ghastly Land. This wasn't a virtual environment. It was the real world. Once one failed here, they would most likely face death.
However, most of the people selling maps on the internet weren't reliable. Only one person in the Black Hole Stage had seen the situation inside the World Stone, and that person had died not long after coming out. It could be said that no one knew the specific situation.
Based on what that person said, people roughly described some scenes.
Legends about the River of Three Roads, the Judgment Platform, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Underground Palace, the Road of No Return, etc., filled people with anticipation for the World Stone.
*****
As the day of the competition drew closer, the various forces made their preparations and instilled knowledge into the participants at any time. Who's priority was to break through the encirclement and who's priority was to protect?
Over at the Galactic Beast Alliance, Han Sha gathered everyone together for a final talk.
There were now over a hundred people in the Galactic Beast Alliance. Han Sha realized that they were too few and too weak. They gathered the people they thought were good, but they weren't the focus of the training. They were the second batch of students.
In the second batch of students, there was actually a talented one called Hong Hao, who came from a universe country with a beginner civilization. He was able to obtain a mid-level Galaxy Beast Flash Bee Gene Fluid, which was a pleasant surprise for Han Sha.
"There are three more days until the World Stone opens. I want to remind everyone that your enemies aren't just the ghosts of the Yellow Springs Ghastly Land. There are other contestants. As competitors, if you die in the World Stone, no one will be able to avenge you."
"There are two places you should pay attention to. One is Sky Tower, and the other is Sky Awaken Mining Group. The contestants from these two places are hostile to us."
At this time, a new student said, "We know that we offended Sky Tower because Lin Zhen and Holly fought with them in the Dimensional Universe. We offended Sky Tower because Holly was expelled."
"Yeah, I heard that too. Teacher, did you expel Holly because of Lin Zhen? Otherwise, how come nothing happened to Lin Zhen? The competition is about to begin, but he still hasn't returned."
"Lin Zhen was the one who started the fight. I heard that he forced Holly to pay for the bar. Why are we the scapegoat for his wrongdoings?"
The relationship between the new students and the old students wasn't good. Especially when they saw that the strongest of the old students was Tai Shan, who had obtained the low-level Galactic Beast Gene Fluid. They looked down on the old students.
Hong Bo was surrounded by a lot of people. As the winner of the mid-level Galactic Beast Gene Fluid, he had become the leader of many people.
Hearing these people's complaints, before Han Sha could say anything, Hong Bo waved his hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense. If you have the time to complain, why don't you practice? As long as you have the power, you don't need to take the blame for anyone."
"Boss Hong Bo, you're the best. After we enter the World Stone, I'll follow you. I heard that Lin Zhen only obtained the low-level Galactic Beast Gene Fluid. How can he compare to Boss Hong Bo?"
"Yeah, I heard that more than two hundred thousand people will enter the World Stone. I don't think I have the power to stand out. I can only follow the strong. Without a doubt, Boss Hong Bo is a strong person. At least, he's much stronger than Lin Zhen."
The old students didn't say anything. There was an invisible gap between the new students and the old students. They didn't think highly of each other.
The new students were led by Hong Bo, but the old students were waiting for Lin Zhen to come back.
As for Lin Zhen's power, the old students secretly talked to each other. Cao Yang said that Lin Zhen's power was unfathomable. During the battle in the Fairy Forest, no one saw Lin Zhen use his full power, but they felt that he was very strong.
With Holly's matter, the old students secretly guessed that Lin Zhen might have obtained the high-level Galactic Beast Gene Fluid, and that Han Sha and Jerry were hiding it.
Han Sha continued, "After you enter the World Stone, don't rush to go deeper. There are still three months. Remember, the most important thing is to find the universe crystal. A small universe crystal is worth one hundred thousand qilin dollars, which is one hundred million three river dollars. If you can find tens of thousands of them, you'll be rich."
"Teacher, besides finding the universe crystal, what if we find the treasure left behind by Yan Jun Kai King? It'll belong to us. "
"Yes, but I advise you to keep a low profile. The Kai King's treasure can be obtained with your life, but I'm afraid you won't be able to use it. Don't be discovered."
"Understood. I heard that in the Yellow Springs Netherworld, every place with a name has a Kai King's treasure. I must look for it carefully."
Looking at the excited martial artists, Han Sha didn't give too many instructions.
In his heart, it would be good if these people could get good results, but if they couldn't, it wouldn't be a big deal. He just needed to ensure that Lin Zhen could succeed.
Calculating the time, Lin Zhen should be back soon. He had just talked to Lin Zhen yesterday, and he said that he would come out of seclusion today.
They hadn't seen each other for eleven months. He didn't know what level Lin Zhen had reached in his cultivation.
Two days passed like this. On the morning of the third day, which was the day they were about to enter the World Stone, Han Sha received a message from Lin Zhen's dimensional universe.
"Mister Han Sha, I've finished my cultivation. I didn't go back to your place because I was in a hurry. Instead, I came directly to the entrance of the World Stone. You can come here to find me."
Han Sha's heart that had been on edge for the past few days finally relaxed. Lin Zhen had finally caught up.
