Chapter 1384: Chapter 1386: Staring at the Heart_1 Chapter 1384: Chapter 1386: Staring at the Heart_1 As Lin Zhen said, he was not a fool.
Old Chen’s method of mental disruption couldn’t possibly succeed forever.
He would become aware if it touched a sensitive part in his heart.
The other party was also in a hurry, hoping that Lin Zhen would make the final decision as soon as possible, which exposed their vulnerability.
Now that Lin Zhen was alert, he played along with their manipulations.
Old Chen’s face twisted in anger, “Since you’ve seen through it all along, why did you wait until the last moment to say something?”
Lin Zhen laughed coldly, “It’s very simple.
I’d been practicing martial arts all my life, lacking the experience of a normal life.
…
So I utilized this time to enrich my inner life, which will greatly benefit my future cultivation.”
“So you’re saying you were using me?”
“It’s mutual.
You planned to use me from the beginning, so you should be prepared to be used by me.
At this point, isn’t it time for you to reveal your true face?”
As he said this, Lin Zhen suddenly raised his hand!
Dimensional Strike!
The long-lost Lotus Spear, sparking in the air, slashed through the sky!
Old Chen’s figure distorted and collapsed under Lin Zhen’s attack!
The broken space devoured everything, completely swallowing Old Chen.
All the illusions started to disappear, while a cold wind blew next to Lin Zhen.
This is the Barbaric Continent.
Lin Zhen was still in the place where he had practiced in his 8th Nirvana life cycle, without moving a step.
Looking out, Lin Zhen, through the Eye of Falsehood Breaking, could even see the figures of the other sovereigns who had left few million kilometers away in the starry sky.
A hundred years, were but a brief moment of time.
The sovereigns who had survived after the siege had already gone, but Old Chen remained.
Lin Zhen took a deep breath, “Just an intention, he wasn’t here in person.”
“Manipulating my thoughts for a hundred years with just an intention, this person… terrifyingly powerful!”
Lin Zhen never imagined that Old Chen was not even present and that his hundred years of existence had been manipulated by mere intentionality.
This person would undoubtedly be a Sovereign Strongman and not any of the sovereigns here.
None of the sovereigns here possessed this capability.
Lin Zhen carefully observed through the Eye of Falsehood Breaking, only to see the Sovereign of Light had also left in the distant starry sky and could not be pursued now.
“This guy, wrapped in my Heavenly Slaughter Aura, is restrained by the inherent light force.
Combined with a not-so-serious attack, he might still be able to survive.”
“The one who manipulated my thinking is definitely someone else.
Although I have some suspicions, but without any substantial evidence, I cannot make a precise judgment now.”
Lin Zhen sat amidst the starry sky, considering his hundred years of Nirvana as nothing more than an illusion.
He had not experienced the ninth cycle of Nirvana.
He was still waiting patiently for the ninth Nirvana to arrive.
But at this moment, a voice echoed in the empty space.
“Lin Zhen, yo, are you ready?”
“Ah!
You are…”
Lin Zhen remembered it clearly now.
After his eighth Nirvana, it was Old Chen who had used a similar voice to mislead him.
But listening closely now, the two voices were quite different, this was the one who had always guided him forward.
Lin Zhen felt excited, “I am ready, the final Nirvana, no matter what, I will complete it.”
However, the person on the other side suddenly laughed.
“Hehe!
Lin Zhen, reality and illusion are interchangeable.
You thought it was an illusion, but it was also reality.
You did very well this time.
The journey of the ninth Nirvana has enriched your life experience, and greatly aided your final growth.
The cosmic power you hold is about to mature after being nourished by an ordinary life experience.”
Lin Zhen hurriedly looked at the Chaos Green Lotus inside his body.
Within the Chaos Green Lotus, the vigorous cosmic power was ready to erupt at any moment.
The buds seemed unable to contain the Chaos Airflow inside.
Strands of airflow were constantly spraying out, and it looked like the petals could open at any moment to birth a new universe.
The Sovereign God Crystal within the lotus seed was also about to break out at any moment.
Once this God Crystal emerged, Lin Zhen would have achieved the rank of a Sovereign, one that transcends the limitations of this universe.
However, he fell just short.
He was only a little distance away, and everything could be accomplished.
“Ah!
Have I completed the Nirvana of my ninth life?” Lin Zhen was overjoyed but also found it strange.
Why hadn’t his new universe formed even after his Nirvana ended?
“Hehe, technically you should be finished, but why haven’t you broken through?
That’s something you have to ask your own heart.
No one else can help with this.
Maybe there is something you haven’t completed yet?
”
“Lin Zhen, see you.
I’ll wait for the day when you’re truly complete.”
The voice became more and more distant and vanished, leaving Lin Zhen’s calls unanswered.
Lin Zhen sat there dumbfounded, with his head down.
What was he missing?
Why couldn’t he make the final breakthrough?
According to the mysterious person, he hadn’t fulfilled a real wish, which is why the power of his new universe could not be activated, and the God Crystal couldn’t emerge.
“My heart…”
Lin Zhen blinked his eyes.
He was not dull.
His talent has reached an unparalleled stage where he could understand his own heart.
“Regret…
of course I have one.
It’s the thing that I have never truly let go of, and where my reluctance lies.”
“That is…
my family!”
Lin Zhen suddenly raised his head, and bright lights in his eyes pierced through the void, staring at the place he wanted but didn’t dare to look.
That was Falling Star Lake.
Since the arrival of the two saint-like angels at Falling Star Lake, this place had become Lin Zhen’s forbidden area.
He was afraid to look, afraid to see things that he couldn’t accept.
Even though he claimed to have put the past behind him and adamantly refused to deal with the affairs of Falling Star Lake, Lin Zhen’s heart had never truly been at peace.
And now he understood; a martial artist who could not face his own heart could never achieve miraculous feats like creating a new universe.
No matter how things had developed, he must confront and solve them.
Now that he had realized what he was missing, Lin Zhen directly observed the situation of Falling Star Lake.
“An Ning, Ming Yue, Qingxuan, Little Phoenix, Little Fox Sisters, my parents and children, you must survive.
Don’t leave me all alone….”
“If you’re really gone, then even if I have to turn the heaven and earth upside down, I will avenge you!”
Having prepared himself for the worst, Lin Zhen’s gaze finally reached Falling Star Lake.
