The Black Hole Stage was a tribulation for warriors.
During this tribulation, a warrior's strength would increase rapidly. After passing this tribulation, one might not be able to achieve eternity, but compared to eternity, the difference was like heaven and earth.
In the vast universe, there were as many warriors in the Black Hole Stage as there were grains of sand in the Ganges River. However, there were far fewer Nebula Stage warriors.
Lin Zhen believed that he was invincible in the Nebula Stage. It would not be difficult for him to pass through the Black Hole Stage normally. However, because his soul had come back from a Black Hole, he did not dare to take this step.
However, he had been delayed on Sky Island for four years. Lin Zhen was worried that he would not be able to resurrect Little Phoenix if he was delayed for too long.
Therefore, he did not dare to delay any longer. Three months after entering the tenth row of stone pillars, he comprehended the 101x time deceleration and was ready to attempt a breakthrough.
In fact, Lin Zhen had been suppressing his desire for a breakthrough for the past few years. His astral power had long reached the critical point of a breakthrough. He had compressed it again and again, and controlled it again and again until it was no longer possible to compress it.
"Phew! Let's begin! "

"Commander, we are ready."
Outside of Levitating Island, the insectoid army was ready. They were about to carry out an unprecedented operation.
After four years, Commander Mantis had had enough. He did not want to stay in this damned place for another day, an hour, or even a minute!
However, before he left, he had to do one thing, and that was to kill Lin Zhen!
He had been preparing for this for four years. In fact, when Lin Zhen had entered Sky Island, he had already planned to do this and had begun to put it into action.
He had gathered the four Zerg mother nests near Sky Island. This was the first step of the operation.
The mother nests of the Zerg absorbed the free energy of the universe and then bred a large number of Zerg warriors.
In the past four years, because no one had threatened the existence of the Zerg, countless Zerg warriors had been gathered around Sky Island!
Mantis's plan was grand. He wanted to break through the meteorite belt around Sky Island.
Floating Island's meteorite belt and spatial storm were a hundred thousand kilometers wide. Mantis's plan was to use the human wave tactic, using the lives of countless ordinary warriors to open a path and break through the periphery of Floating Island.
Every insectoid warrior unleashed their astral power to the maximum, using their lives as a wall to stop the asteroid belt from moving!
When the insectoid warriors crashed into the asteroid belt around the island, they would slow down. Theoretically speaking, if there were an infinite number of insectoid warriors, they could completely stop the asteroid belt.
A hundred thousand kilometers long asteroid belt. Who knew how many sacrifices they would have to make just by relying on their flesh and blood. It was impossible for any other race to accomplish this, but only the insectoids could!
Besides, Mantis's plan wasn't particularly difficult. He didn't need the asteroid belt to completely stop. All he needed to do was build a wall with his flesh and blood to slow down the asteroid belt and weaken the spatial storm. Then, his team would be able to enter the floating island!
The insectoid warriors below the Black Hole stage were tools!
They were tools that could be manipulated by the advanced insectoids at will. They would live or die as they wished, and they would not disobey in any way. Mantis had been hoarding countless warriors here for the past four years, waiting for this day.
"Are you sure we have enough warriors?"
"Commander, of course. We've been focusing on accumulating warriors for the past four years. Low-level warriors can be bred without spending much energy. The four mother nests can easily breed hundreds of thousands of warriors every day. Over the past four years, we have more than a billion warriors!"
The cannon fodder bred by the mother nests were mostly low-level warriors. They were at the Comet stage and the Satellite stage. Many of them were even ordinary Star stage insectoids.
Mantis didn't need too many experts at the moment. These weak warriors were enough to block the asteroid belt.
"Good! Get ready to move out now. "
The beetle commander was about to carry out the mission when Mantis suddenly stopped him. "Wait a minute."
"Is there anything else?"
"Don't do it so easily. Didn't Lin Zhen get first place in the last kill list? He killed hundreds of thousands of our warriors above the Star stage. I heard that many people in the Fire Qilin Empire see Lin Zhen as a hero. Even today, the reward for first place on the kill list is still reserved for him. He's the idol of countless youths."
"That seems to be the case. Even today, many people from the Fire Qilin Empire say that they want to come to the Chaotic Star River to find Lin Zhen and rescue him. If it weren't for the fact that we've heavily surrounded the floating island, they wouldn't have been able to come."
"Hehe! That's perfect. Since they think that Lin Zhen is a hero, we'll show them what the end of a hero is. We'll broadcast the video of our operation in the dimensional universe. Let them see with their own eyes how their hero is tortured and killed by us! "
The beetle's eyes lit up when he heard Mantis's suggestion. "That's a good idea! But commander, we're all from the Zerg Empire. Even if we broadcast the video in the Dimensional Universe, only the Zerg Empire's people will watch it. We don't have any accounts in the Fire Qilin Empire. We don't have that identity. "
"That's not a problem. We don't have it, but someone else does. I'll find someone to post it on our behalf soon."
"Hehe!! Lin Zhen, don't think you're safe just because you're hiding in the floating island like a coward. Today, I'll let the people of your empire witness your end! "
*****
Something big happened on the Fire Qilin Empire's online forum.
Tianci, who was also from the Sanjiang Federation like Lin Zhen, posted a super shocking video on the Internet.
The content of the video came from the floating island in the core area of the Chaotic Star River. The title of the video was "The End of a Genius, Encirclement of the Zerg".
In the video, there were so many Zerg fighters that it was impossible to count them all. They were so densely packed that people with trypophobia would vomit on the spot.
These Zerg fighters seemed to have lost their minds. They were madly charging at the meteorite belt around the floating island.
Around the floating island, the meteorite belt, which was 100,000 kilometers wide, was moving rapidly. Space storms ran rampant in it, making it almost impossible to pass through.
The Zerg fighters rushed over, unleashed all their astral power, and directly hit the meteorite!
Their strength was insignificant compared to the high-speed meteorite, but they could slow down the speed of the meteorite a little.
Slowing it down a little was enough. The second Zerg fighter immediately rushed up and slowed the meteorite down a little more.
Then the third, the fourth, the hundredth, and the ten-thousandth!
All the Zerg fighters rushed forward without any regard for their own safety. They cooperated with each other very well. The timing of their advance and the timing of their attacks were almost exactly the same. This was the terrifying execution of the Zerg!
Countless Zerg fighters unleashed their astral power, completely disregarding their own lives. They forcibly stopped the meteorites from moving. Countless meteorites piled up, and the meteorites behind them crashed into the city wall with a rumble, making the city wall even more solid!
Gradually, a prototype of a passage leading to the depths of the floating island appeared!
"Oh my god! Are these Zergs crazy? What are they doing? "
"Suicide? But this kind of suicide seems meaningless. Even if they forcibly stop the meteorite belt, what's the point? "
"What are you thinking? Did you notice the title of the video? This is the floating island, where the Zerg besieged Lin Zhen. Lin Zhen is on the floating island. They want to stop the meteorite belt, then rush into the floating island to kill Lin Zhen! "
"No! This can't be true. These Zergs are actually willing to pay such a huge price to kill Lin Zhen. Is it worth it? "
"You don't understand at all. The low-level Zerg fighters are worthless. They can have as many as they want. The real valuable ones are the high-level Zerg fighters. They're using the lives of countless low-level Zerg fighters as a foundation to forcibly open this passage. But who is Lin Zhen? He's a genius of our empire, ranked first on the kill list. "
"No! How can our empire stand by and do nothing? No matter what, we have to save Lin Zhen. If we abandon our hero and ignore him when he's in trouble, what hope does our empire have? "
"In a place like the Chaotic Star River, at most, they'll enter the Nebula stage. It's almost impossible to save Lin Zhen. Don't be naive."
For a time, there were different opinions in the Fire Qilin Empire. Some who thought they were rational pointed out the many disadvantages of saving Lin Zhen, but they were drowned out by the saliva of the majority.
Most people still believed that no matter the price, they had to save Lin Zhen.
The heat of this matter quickly swept across the entire empire. The meteorite belt in the Chaotic Star River was 100,000 kilometers long. Even if the Zergs wanted to open it, they wouldn't succeed in a day or two. There might still be time.
This matter alarmed the imperial family of the Fire Qilin Empire. For this reason, Tian Haoyu even made a speech, saying that they couldn't abandon their national hero to suffer alone. They would send a special operation team to the Chaotic Star River to save him.
The special operation team had a total of 50 people, all of whom were Nebula stage experts from the empire's military.
Their mission was to save Lin Zhen from the sea of Zergs at all costs. At the very least, they had to stop the Zergs' crazy plan and give Lin Zhen a chance to live.
The leader of the team even had a mission. If worse came to worst, the empire would pay a price in exchange for Lin Zhen's safe return home.
Of course, this matter couldn't be told to the public. The public only knew that the team to save Lin Zhen had already set out and would reach the floating island in the Chaotic Star River in half a month.
Tianci, who helped the Zergs broadcast the situation, was also scolded by the entire nation. They didn't know why this person would help the Zergs.
However, no one knew Tianci's specific location, so they couldn't do anything to him. Moreover, the people really needed Tianci to release the situation of the video so that they could know Lin Zhen's information in a timely manner.
