Chapter 987: Chapter 990: Sovereign Weapon_1 Chapter 987: Chapter 990: Sovereign Weapon_1 Association of Alchemists, Qin City.
This is a Holy Land where alchemists from all over the world gather, a place that countless alchemists on the ground of the Original World long for.
Wearing a cloak, Lin Zhen came here and saw a bustling scene in front of the door.
There will always be people seeking medicine in this world, let alone the Martial Artists whose medication consumption was a million times that of ordinary people.
Alchemists were always a scarce profession.
It was once said that being an alchemist at the Longevity Stage, and even a deity wouldn’t be traded for.
Although this statement lacks persuasiveness, it is enough to illustrate the importance of alchemists.
…
Especially in Qin City, it has now become well-known.
Because a God-level alchemist, Lin Zhen, emerged here.
When Lin Zhen stepped into the Association of Alchemists, the first thing he saw was his own giant golden statue.
Constructed of fine gold, the massive statue of up to ten meters was undoubtedly astronomical in cost.
A pair of Starshine Stone eyes were inlaid, the black hair was woven by the black-sky silkworm, and Lin Zhen’s appearance under the skillful craftsman seemed exceedingly vivid.
There was Lin Zhen’s resume at the foot of the giant statue.
“Lin Zhen!
God-level Alchemist, came through the Heavenly Gate from the New World, a Martial Arts Prodigy, an Alchemy Prodigy, since he entered the Original World….”
The subsequent were Lin Zhen’s feats, detailed and listed that it was staggering.
There were things that even Lin Zhen himself didn’t have a strong impression of, let alone countless records here.
Another point was Lin Zhen’s journey of growth correlated closely with the Association of Alchemists, who poured a lot of effort into cultivating Lin Zhen’s talent.
At this point, the Association of Alchemists seemed to be boasting about themselves.
After all, Lin Zhen’s growth relied more on himself.
However, Lin Zhen didn’t care.
When he went to the Fire Kirin Clan to fetch his parents, he saw his statue there, not any smaller than this.
They said that Lin Zhen’s growth was cultivated by the Fire Kirin Clan.
This was human nature and could be understood.
Lin Zhen did not show up.
He knew that once he did, it would attract onlookers and inconvenience him.
He came here to visit Ning Qingxuan.
When he got to the front desk, Lin Zhen didn’t think of teleporting directly, but showed his badge as usual.
‘Hello, I want to go to Saint Master Lin Zhen’s villa.’
The receptionist lazily took Lin Zhen’s badge and said dismissively: ‘I guess you must be from some small rural nation.
Saint Master Lin Zhen has long been referred to as God Master Lin Zhen…
‘
Lin Zhen paused in surprise; he didn’t know the receptionist as it had been many years and they had been replaced.
He didn’t expect to have been upgraded to God Master now.
“Alright, let me correct myself, I want to go to the villa of God Master Lin Zhen.”
“I advise you to give up, do you think that God Master Lin Zhen’s villa is vacant?
Is it open for visitation?
If that were the case, the Association of Alchemists, as big as a planet, would not be able to accommodate the people coming.
There are people living in his villa, not open to the public.
You might as well use your time to do some quests at the adventurer’s guild outside, earn more money, become an Apprentice Alchemist, start following God Master Lin Zhen’s footsteps.
Of course, you need to break through to Longevity first.”
Lin Zhen smiled slightly: “Is this your advice to me?”
Of course, you think I have so much spare time?
This is the most popular practice on the grounds of the Original World.
If it weren’t for you looking alright, I would have called the guards to kick you out.”
Lin Zhen chuckled: “You are quite a diligent receptionist, but shouldn’t you check the guest’s badge before deciding?”
“Hmph!
It would be the same, the name of God Master Lin Zhen is currently the most famous in the Original World’s surface, and the Association has long issued an order prohibiting anyone from disturbing at his villa, even if you were the Emperor…”
Talking, she opened the badge in a huff.
And then, her mouth opened wide, as if she had stuffed a duck egg into it and couldn’t close it at all.
‘Miss, can I proceed now?’
‘Ah Ah!!!
Yes…
you can.’
“Thank you!” Lin Zhen smiled and got up, heading to the back of the Association of Alchemists.
Until Lin Zhen’s back disappeared, the receptionist suddenly screamed.
Her shrill shout scared the surrounding people.
Another receptionist complained: “Xiao Man, are you crazy?
Did you see a ghost in broad daylight?
You’re scaring people.”
The receptionist named, Xiao Man, chuckled stupidly: “A ghost is nothing compared to this.”
“Is that so?
What happened, spill it?”
Xiao Man immediately looked vigilant at her companion: “What are you going to do?
Give up, I won’t tell you, this is my secret.”
“Crazy…..”
Xiao Man completely ignored her colleague’s look.
She was completely immersed in immense happiness.
She had actually seen Lin Zhen, the real Lin Zhen!
********
Opened the door to the floating villa, dust fell, indicating that the door had not been opened for a long time.
In the room where he used to be with Xuan’er, Lin Zhen and Ning Qingxuan stared at each other.
In the past seventy years, Ning Qingxuan hadn’t changed since Lin Zhen’s time.
She was still sitting in the same place cultivating, without a single movement!
“Xuan’er…..”
“My Lord, you’re back.”
Seeing his elegant and graceful beloved before him, Lin Zhen strode over in two steps, holding Ning Qingxuan in his arms, “Xuan’er, I’m back.”
Ning Qingxuan nestled her head in Lin Zhen’s chest with a smile, her arms around him – a truly rare display of emotion from someone who was never known for dramatic highs and lows.
With a wave of Lin Zhen’s hand, the glorious day gave way to a starlit night, as he toppled onto the bed with Ning Qingxuan in his arms.
Poetic moments of tumult and tenderness ensued…
It was only after a long while, as Lin Zhen gazed at Ning Qingxuan, that he truly accepted the fact that on the surface of the Original World, there really were beings in the God Transformation Period.
Initially, Ning Qingxuan was merely at the Three Flowers Realm.
In the seventy or so years since Lin Zhen left, Ning Qingxuan continued her closed-door cultivation, and to his amazement, she’d now reached the peak realm of Divine Transformation.
Although Divine Transformation seemed insignificant to Lin Zhen, the fact that Ning Qingxuan achieved this breakthrough on the surface of the Original World, was truly remarkable, highlighting her exceptional talent.
“Xuan’er, how’ve you been all these years?”
“It’s been much the same, I’ve been cultivating.
The moment I heard your footsteps, I knew you were back, so I woke up.”
Lin Zhen ran his fingers through her silky hair, knowing things couldn’t have been as simple as she put them.
She was probably just trying to comfort him and keep him from worrying.
As if reading Lin Zhen’s thoughts, Ning Qingxuan reassured him, “My Lord, you really don’t need to worry about me.
I’ve grown accustomed to my tranquil days, and my yearning for you prevents me from feeling too lonely.
What’s more important is that you do what needs to be done.”
Lin Zhen nodded in agreement – for him, cultivating was the utmost priority right now.
He still had a month to spend with Ning Qingxuan, after which he planned to cultivate the Divine Domain.
Lei Luo had told Lin Zhen that to cultivate the Divine Domain, it was best to suppress his realm, but Lin Zhen hadn’t yet made up his mind regarding the specifics of this cultivation.
Should he isolate himself, or immerse himself in society?
Ning Qingxuan’s talent greatly impressed Lin Zhen – amongst all the women he knew, only four shared such exceptional gifts.
Besides the Bai Xue and Bai Su sisters, there were Little Phoenix and Ning Qingxuan, whose talents were unparalleled.
Ning Qingxuan even suppressed her own power.
She had already achieved the strength to break through to the God Realm Stage, but she felt her cultivation was not yet perfect.
Lin Zhen hence took over as her instructor, with Ning Qingxuan willingly accepting his guidance – thus began their bustling month together.
Every time Lin Zhen taught any martial arts skill, it wouldn’t take long for Ning Qingxuan to practise them harmoniously, even providing Lin Zhen with a lot of inspirations.
Were it not for the Divine Domain on his mind, Lin Zhen might have considered spending a few delightful years here with Ning Qingxuan.
As time ticked away, Lin Zhen became more indecisive, unable to ascertain the most suitable choice.
Ning Qingxuan could sense Lin Zhen’s unrest, but found herself helpless to comfort him.
********
On a certain day after a month had passed, fierce wind and rain swept across Qin City.
The storm was incredibly rare, the dense clouds looming overhead were as menacing as the Heavenly Tribulation itself.
Lin Zhen’s vigilance couldn’t penetrate the obscurity of the firmament, which was almost unthinkable.
Lin Zhen’s gaze could stretch to distances of millions of kilometers, yet it couldn’t locate the edge of the clouded sky!
The wind wasn’t a good wind, and the rain wasn’t a good rain.
The thunderstorm rocked the earth to such an extent that people dared not leave their homes.
That is until a rainbow pierced through the sky and earth, causing the land to shake!
At that moment, Lin Zhen was cultivating, the magnitude of the natural power left him grave-faced – such a sight was unheard of.
That one flash of lightning alone, could obliterate an entire Star System!
Looking out from indoors, one could see that the dense clouds had been torn asunder, leaving behind an endless deep furrow.
“What was that… did something fly by just now?”
Just as Lin Zhen was puzzled, his Dimensional Universe device rang.
Lin Zhen looked at it and was taken aback.
Because the person who had called him in the Dimensional Universe, was none other than Jin Nuo!
“Fifth Senior Brother, did you need something from me?” Lin Zhen hurriedly answered.
Jin Nuo spoke solemnly: “Lin Zhen, did you see that light just now?”
“I saw it, it seemed like some sort of powerful entity flew by, but I couldn’t tell what it was.”
“That was a Sovereign Weapon!”
Lin Zhen was taken aback: “What’s a Sovereign Weapon?”
“You do know what a Sovereign is, don’t you?”
Lin Zhen nodded; he’d heard a bit about it – above the Upper Gods, there lay the highest and unparalleled Sovereigns.
But it was so far removed from him, he’d never paid any attention to it.
“A Sovereign Weapon is the weapon of a Sovereign.
Lin Zhen, obtaining a Sovereign Weapon bears great significance.
It would be beneficial for your future too, being desired by every Martial Artist.”
“So what are you suggesting, Fifth Senior Brother?”
“Chase the trace of the Sovereign Weapon, find this peerless God weapon.
Judging by its trajectory, it most likely headed towards the Heavenly Gate between the Original World and the New World.
