Chapter 1164: Chapter 1167: A Powerful Enemy Strikes_1 Chapter 1164: Chapter 1167: A Powerful Enemy Strikes_1 Having seized the Star Ring, sheer joy filled Lin Zhen’s heart.
These people did not frighten him in the least.
When the gap in absolute power was too wide, numerical advantage didn’t amount to much.
Besides, the number of deities here didn’t reach into the tens of millions, so they posed no significant threat to Lin Zhen.
After all, deities were not mere mortals, and their numbers were virtually inexhaustible.
There could never be tens of millions of deities gathered for Lin Zhen to slaughter.
What he most looked forward to in this battle was getting the Moon and Star Rings.
…
The Sun, Moon, and Star Rings were originally part of the same weapon, but Lin Zhen had only managed to snatch the Sun Ring.
If he could unite all three rings, he would have a High-Grade Spiritual Power Weapon!
The price difference between Mid-grade and High-Grade arms was astronomically huge—how could Lin Zhen not go after it?
Once he acquired the Star Ring, and subsequently the Moon Ring, this battle would be a perfect victory.
After killing Anluo, Lin Zhen headed straight for Fei Ni, who was still on the run.
This was the last one.
Once he killed him and took the Moon Ring, the battle would be essentially over.
Seeing Lin Zhen charging towards him, Fei Ni was terror-stricken.
People around him were calling Lin Zhen the Ghost Face King.
This title was not thrown about lightly.
Only those at the level of a God King would have the title of King attached to their name.
This title represented nearly the pinnacle of power in the universe, second only to the Sovereign.
Although Fei Ni didn’t believe Lin Zhen possessed the strength to become a King, he assumed the people around him were using it as an excuse out of fear, deliberately addressing Lin Zhen as the Ghost Face King to make their decision to flee in the heat of battle seem less disgraceful.
But even if he hadn’t yet attained the position of king, Lin Zhen already had a nearly top-tier Quasi-God King strength, which was more than Fei Ni could handle.
Fei Ni, howling, charged into the realm of the Night Forest, seeking to escape quickly.
The hell that he originally thought would trap Lin Zhen had turned into a prison for them instead.
However, opening the realm with his power was impossible in such short time.
The only option was for the Tree Demon King to voluntarily open the domain.
But the Tree Demon King was indifferent to all of this.
In his view, even though these people were currently disorganized, Lin Zhen’s relentless pursuit would inevitably lead to desperation, and they would definitely fight back fiercely.
Even if they couldn’t achieve any notable results, at least they could deplete some of Lin Zhen’s strength.
As long as Lin Zhen was weakened, the Tree Demon King would take action at the critical moment.
Having this Domain-related weapon significantly enhanced the Tree Demon King’s fighting power.
He still felt hopeful about defeating Lin Zhen.
At that time, no matter how much Lin Zhen benefited from this place, wouldn’t all of them belong to him alone?
As for the death of other people, what did that have to do with him, the Tree Demon King?
They could die for all he cared.
He wasn’t a soft-hearted person, and there was a reason he was known as the Demon King.
So, with Lin Zhen hot on Fei Ni’s tail, Fei Ni had absolutely nowhere to run!
Fei Ni himself had fallen into despair.
It seemed that the Tree Demon King had decided to use the two thousand of them as cannon fodder.
How ludicrous it was that they had been so concerned about gaining more benefits, only to be used by someone else.
Just as he despaired, the domain of the Night Forest suddenly opened!
Fei Ni saw a glimmer of hope and bolted out before Lin Zhen arrived.
At the same time, a scream echoed from the sky.
It came from the Tree Demon King.
“Andromandis, how dare you ambush me!”
The battle halted momentarily as everyone turned their eyes towards the sky, including Lin Zhen, because he had heard the name Andromandis.
In the sky, Andromandis, wielding a long sword, had already cut off one of the Tree Demon King’s arms and half of his body, causing him serious injury.
Anda sneered, “You brainless fool!
If you hadn’t opened your domain, who could be sure to defeat Lin Zhen, given his Crystallization period of Spiritual Power, combined with the Sun, Moon, and Star Ring?
You would be as good as dead.”
After finishing these words, Anda suddenly swooped down in front of Fei Ni, who thought he had made a successful escape.
With one swing of his sword, he killed him before taking his Moon Ring.
Having acquired the Moon Ring, Anda turned to Lin Zhen with a mocking smile, “My dear junior brother, it’s such a pity.
You didn’t get the Moon Ring, so your spiritual weapon can’t be truly completed.
I hope you don’t mind that your senior brother has thwarted your plans.”
Lin Zhen inwardly lamented that he was still a step too late.
Anda had just been watching the fire from the other side of the bank and had obviously conducted thorough research on Lin Zhen.
He started moving the moment Lin Zhen secured the Star Ring.
The two were already at odds, so it was entirely acceptable for him to sabotage Lin Zhen now.
But he did choose the right timing.
Lin Zhen also revealed a smile, “Indeed, brother Anda, you really know when to act.
That was a nice move.”
“Hehe!
No need to be courteous, I was simply considering my own interests.
After all, weakening your power will make it easier for me to deal with you later.
But don’t worry, after you die, I’ll make sure the Primordial Chaos Armor and the Sun, Moon, and Star Ring radiate brilliantly in the Star Sea.
In this way, I guess it counts as an indirect fulfillment of your ambition.”
“Brother, you’re too considerate.
However, I prefer to fulfill that ambition myself.”
“Hehe, you probably don’t know.
While you were fighting these brainless fools, I took the chance to take care of one of our brothers.
Now, in my hands, there are eight Sovereign Seals.”
Something stirred in Lin Zhen’s heart.
Looking into the Dimensional Universe, he suddenly realized that now only four candidates remained among the preselected disciples!
He had eight seals, Anda had eight, surprisingly, Ge Lin also held eight seals!
There was also another person, an upper god named Windy Tower, who had one seal.
Obviously, during this time, Anda wasn’t the only one playing dirty; Ge Lin was quietly making his move as well.
Lin Zhen didn’t know where Windy Tower was, and he guessed Anda didn’t either.
But clearly, his target was Lin Zhen.
Anda was extraordinarily strong.
At least from Lin Zhen’s perspective, Anda’s strength was on par with his own, both high-ranking within the Quasi-God Kings.
Lin Zhen remained cautious, and Anda didn’t feel relaxed either.
He first turned to the Tree Demon King and said, “Tree Demon King, aren’t you leaving yet?
What are you doing hanging around?
You want me to personally wipe you out?
If it wasn’t for the sake of your elder brother, the Tree God King, I would have cut you into eighteen pieces and burned you for firewood by now!”
The Tree Demon King’s expression changed several times.
He wanted to resist, but with his severe injury and the presence of the two dangerous individuals, Anda and Lin Zhen, staying would likely result in a disastrous end.
“Okay, okay, okay!
Andromandis, I will remember this.
We will cross paths again!”
Leaving a threatening comment behind, the Tree Demon King withdrew the Night Forest and headed straight for his free-flying satellite.
As soon as he got there, he quickly departed.
Lin Zhen knew Anda would have preferred to kill the Tree Demon King, as the Night Forest was a great temptation to anyone.
