When Ning Qingxuan woke up groggily, she realized that she was already lying in bed.
The fragrance of food wafted from her surroundings. Lin Zhen seemed to be making something to eat.
She propped herself up with her hands and felt that her arms were extremely sore and weak. She actually couldn't prop herself up.
After failing to break through, her Star Power had completely disappeared. Her tempered divine body had also entered a weakened state. At this time, she was even weaker than a normal person in the New Territories, let alone a warrior.
The feeling of losing all her strength made her feel depressed.
Her master had told her not to try easily. If she failed, this would be the result.
She didn't know how long this state would last, but she reckoned that she wouldn't recover for the time being.
It wasn't that she didn't want to return to the Yuan Realm. She had already tried her best, but unfortunately, she still didn't succeed. She could only resign herself to fate.
"You're awake. Come and try the porridge I made. I know that your body is weak, so I'll give you some energy."
Lin Zhen came over with the porridge. Ning Qingxuan struggled to sit up, but it was very difficult. Lin Zhen came to her side and reached out a hand to gently lift her body so that she was half-leaning against him.
"Don't say that I'm taking advantage of you. It's more convenient for me to feed you like this. You better not move around. You have to know that I'm not a very patient person."
A spoonful of sweet porridge reached her mouth. Ning Qingxuan's face was a little red. She wasn't used to being taken care of like a child, especially by a man.
But now, her ability was almost empty. She couldn't even raise her arms. She didn't have the slightest ability to resist Lin Zhen's domineering behavior.
The white porcelain spoon gently entered her red lips. Lin Zhen fed her while asking, "Crown Princess, how long will this state last?"
"I'm not too sure. About two or three years. I'll have to wait for my weakened state to end. When it ends, I'll recover."
Ning Qingxuan was still very glad. If Lin Zhen was really her enemy, she would undoubtedly be unable to resist in this state. But now, it seemed that she hadn't misjudged him.
"It's okay. I'll take care of you until you recover."
After saying that, Lin Zhen felt that this position was still a little uncomfortable, so he simply hugged her body and let her head rest on his shoulder.
Ning Qingxuan wanted to protest, but she was fed another spoonful of porridge.
She simply closed her eyes and didn't say anything. The strong masculine scent around her made her heart pound.
"You don't have to worry about anything. Leave the matter of returning to the Primordial Realm to me."
Her long eyelashes fluttered a few times. Ning Qingxuan didn't say a word. This state made her feel ashamed.
Lin Zhen smiled. After finishing the meal, he put down the beauty in his arms. The extremely tired Ning Qingxuan quickly fell asleep.
Lin Zhen plucked the Domain Monarch Star Crystal and cultivated again.
When the ball of light he set up dimmed again, he felt Ning Qingxuan involuntarily curl up her body.
After gently probing the other party's forehead, he discovered that this immortal martial artist had actually caught a cold.
"What a domineering side effect. It can actually make an Immortal martial artist's body so weak. Fortunately, she's with me. Otherwise, she would have lost her life at any time."
Lin Zhen's cultivation this time also ended. He fed Ning Qingxuan some water and food again, then simply burrowed into her bed.
He gently stretched out his arms and pulled this extremely beautiful crown prince consort into his embrace, using his own body temperature to warm her up.
"Lin Zhen … What's wrong with me?"
Ning Qingxuan opened her eyes slightly and asked weakly.
"Don't worry. You just caught a cold. You'll be fine soon."
In her daze, Ning Qingxuan felt that this seemed a little inappropriate. However, Lin Zhen's warm embrace gave her the most comfortable place to rest. She couldn't help but find a comfortable position and fell asleep again.
The delicate body in his arms had amazing elasticity and charm. Lin Zhen also felt very uncomfortable. He could only sink his spiritual power into his Dantian and focus on studying the lightning in the black hole.
If he wanted to leave this place, he would have to rely on it.

The Star of Divine Punishment would open in two years. This news swept through the Primordial Realm.
On this day, golden light fell from the sky. Almost everyone heard a voice.
This voice announced to the entire Primordial Realm that the Star of Divine Punishment had appeared. Two years and five months later, everyone who was confirmed to enter the Star of Divine Punishment should be prepared on that day. He would directly teleport everyone in.
The number of people entering the Star of Divine Punishment in the entire Primordial Realm was ten billion!
Moreover, the Dimensional Universe Corporation would also broadcast the situation on the Star of Divine Punishment to the entire Primordial Realm. Everyone could see their performance.
Ten billion sounded like a lot. However, in front of the huge population of the Primordial Realm, it could be described as a drop in the ocean.
The quota for the Star of Divine Punishment also became more and more popular. However, most people who were qualified to obtain this quota were reluctant to sell it.
Other than a hundred opportunities to temper the body, every martial art practitioner in the top hundred thousand would obtain a Soul Formation aura!
The only use of the Soul Formation aura was to allow martial art practitioners to break through the barrier of the World King and attain immortality!
Even if you couldn't obtain the opportunity to temper the divine body, there was a high possibility of attaining immortality. This was even more attractive to martial art practitioners, and the chances were also greater.
Of course, there were also some people who felt that they could attain immortality and didn't have higher requirements. Therefore, they chose to sell the quota for the Star of Divine Punishment.
The sale of every quota would set off a wave of bidding in the auction house. Almost all of the quotas for the Star of Divine Punishment were sold for more than a hundred billion.
No matter which country or force it was, they would carefully select the nominees.
One had to know that the battle of the Star of Divine Punishment this time would be broadcasted live to the entire Primordial Realm. There was no way to cheat. Every country and force wanted to obtain the most attention and benefits in this grand event. Therefore, the people they sent out were definitely not mediocre.
However, there were also people who believed that those who entered the Star of Divine Punishment might not be the elites of the Primordial Realm. Many martial art practitioners were obviously powerful but had no money or power. They weren't qualified to enter the Star of Divine Punishment, and this was unfair to them.
Unfortunately, not many people supported this view. Money and power were also part of one's strength. If you couldn't obtain them, it meant that you weren't strong enough. There was no real fairness in this world, and it had never been fair.

The Great Qin Empire!
The Qin Emperor, Qin Yuntian, invited everyone who represented the Great Qin Empire to a banquet in the main hall.
There were more than a million people in the Great Qin Empire participating in the battle, but only a thousand people represented the imperial court!
The Qin Emperor, who was surrounded by golden light, looked like a god. He stood above the clouds and looked down on everyone.
"You are all the pride of my Great Qin Empire. As the most powerful empire in the Primordial Realm, I only have one request. This time, the first place on the Star of Divine Punishment must belong to my Great Qin Empire. Do you have the confidence to do so!?"
"Victory! Victory! "
At the front of the group stood a blue-clothed youth. He was a peak ninth level World King. His entire being was like a peerless divine weapon that had been unsheathed. His soaring sword intent nearly pierced through the heavens.
"First place must belong to my Great Qin Empire's Crown Prince, Qin Jianfeng! Only the Crown Prince of the First Empire is worthy of the status of number one in the Primordial Realm! "

Deep in the mountains of the State of Zhao, there was a dense forest that covered the sky.
Deep in the forest, an old man with a leather belt wrapped around his upper body was sitting in meditation.
In front of him, hundreds of disciples sat cross-legged, their eyes closed and not speaking.
If one looked carefully at this old man, they would discover that the leather he was wearing was actually the skin of a super galactic beast, a golden dragon. He had peeled it off and used it to make clothes around his body.
"We, the Secret Sect martial artists, have obtained 300 spots this time. For 100,000 years, we have not taken a single step out of the Dense Fog Forest. We have been waiting for this day. My children, prepare to pick up your weapons and go to the Star of Divine Punishment to do as you please! Let those countries on the continent witness the strength of our Secret Sect disciples! "
*****
In the capital of Southern Liang, Crown Prince Liang Ji-hwan looked at the martial artists below.
Southern Liang only had 1000 spots, and less than 20 of them were truly under the control of the royal family.
Liang Chen stood at the front of the group. Behind him were more than a dozen World King level powerhouses.
After not seeing him for a while, Liang Chen had already become a Domain King. Moreover, he was a second level Domain King.
However, Liang Ji-hwan was not very confident. Southern Liang's martial strength was not ranked in the entire Primordial Realm. The number of countries in the Primordial Realm was about 5 million. Among these countries, Southern Liang probably did not even rank in the top 4 million.
If the Crown Princess's realm was not so high, he might still have some confidence. But now …
"We, the descendants of Southern Liang, have a goal for this Star of Divine Punishment battle. Even if you can't obtain a spot to temper your body, you must at least rank in the top 100,000. As long as you achieve this goal, it will be considered our victory!"
It was not easy to obtain a spot in the top 100,000 among billions of participants and obtain the opportunity to advance to the Immortal Realm. No matter who achieved this, they would have a meteoric rise and a limitless future!

In the Fire Kirin, the Patriarch was also gathering the martial artists for a discussion.
"This time, our Kirin Clan has been allocated 300 spots. Moreover, it was allocated by the Black Kirin, Jade Kirin, and other clans. In the end, only 15 spots were allocated to our Fire Kirin Clan. Therefore, I have decided to allocate the spots according to the following method."
"Qin Dong! One spot. Zhao Xiaolong, one spot. Ke Xiangnan, one spot. Ke Xiangdong, one spot … "
Ke Xiangdong and Ke Xiangnan glanced at each other, excitement in their eyes.
Joining the Kirin Clan was indeed the best choice. If they could obtain a good ranking in the Star of Divine Punishment, then they would be able to walk into the eyes of the masses.
In the past, the Lin Zhen incident had brought about a tremendous negative impact on the Kirin Clan. But, over 700 years had already passed and most of that negative impact had been eliminated. If both of them were able to obtain a spot, that proved that the Kirin Clan no longer cared about that incident.
"Lin Zhen! First, you brought about a great impact on me and then you killed my father! Once I return from the Star of Divine Punishment, that will be the day I take revenge on you! Prepare to die! "Ke Xiangnan, who had already become a World King master, clenched his fists.

The Phoenix Clan's Holy Mountain. This was a forest of parasol trees.
As the call to assemble sounded out, beautiful phoenixes flew out from the trees, flying towards the clan's great hall.
At this time, a particularly beautiful phoenix gently spread its wings, turning into a red-clothed woman in the air and landing in front of the great hall.
"Blue Luan! I'm here! "
The Young Matriarch of the Phoenix Clan, Jun Mo, came to Feng Blue Luan's side, a gentle smile on her face.
"Greetings, Young Matriarch!" Feng Blue Luan bowed.
"Hey! Blue Luan, why are you treating me like an outsider? Sooner or later, we will be a family. "
"Young Matriarch, please conduct yourself with dignity. Feng Blue Luan already has a sweetheart. We have already made a promise of a thousand years. Unless he doesn't want me anymore, I won't belong to anyone else."
Jun Mo's complexion suddenly became incomparably ugly. He awkwardly said, "Alright, I hope your sweetheart doesn't forget the time. But, this time, the spots for the Star of Divine Punishment are allocated. You and I both have a spot. Let's go in and listen."
Feng Blue Luan nodded and stepped into the hall of the Phoenix Clan.
