Mid-Diamond-level, Devour Power! (Third Update)

Lin Zhen knew very well that what he was experiencing was not a hallucination.

He truly saw Little Warm, not with his eyes, but with his heart.

He could sense that Little Warm was on the other side of the rock. The little creature sensed the danger to its master, but couldn't come over, so it just lay there on the other side of the rock.

Lin Zhen's ability to have such a clear feeling seemed to stem from the mouthful of blood that had surged up just now.

Back in the Fire Mountain of Wudalianchi, Little Warm sucked Lin Zhen's blood, and the blood from Little Warm's newborn teeth, which had not yet dried, seeped into Lin Zhen's body.

In other words, Lin Zhen currently possesses the aura of the Star River Beast within his body!

Little Warm obtained Lin Zhen's Light-Electric power and Gold Qi, but Lin Zhen also obtained Little Warm's fire power, although he did not receive Little Warm's Innate Devour.

After all, Lin Zhen wasn't a true Star River Beast, so he couldn't possibly have learned the Innate Devour.

Lin Zhen felt a little regretful about this, but she didn't take it to heart.

But now, things seem to be a little different!

After a rush of blood to his head, Lin Zhen's Mental Power seemed to have undergone a slight change!

Banahe's Mental Impact not only failed to harm Lin Zhen, but actually slightly increased Lin Zhen's Mental Power.

"This is... my Mental Power actually absorbed Banahe's Mental Impact!"

"What's going on? Why can I sense Little Warm's presence?"

"Could it be that Little Warm's Devour Power has manifested in my Mental Power?"

Boom!

The shock of Banahe ended, but the Mental Impact of Allen arrived once again.

Allen's impact was stronger than Banahe's. Lin Zhen had previously felt that Allen's was harder to withstand, but this time, the result was the same.

Allen's Mental Power struck him, but it was still devoured by Lin Zhen's Mental Power Mental Power, which actually advanced a little further towards the Mid-Diamond-level.

"There won't be any mistakes! This time there absolutely won't be any!"

Lin Zhen was immediately invigorated, feeling incredibly surprised and delighted.

This is indeed Little Warm's power, the power of absorption!

Although Lin Zhen's body is not that of Star River Beast and therefore cannot truly possess the Innate Devour, this power still appeared when his Mental Power was greatly depleted, and ultimately affected Lin Zhen's Mental Power!

His Mental Power can absorb external Mental Impact!

"Haha! Hahaha!"

The collapsing Folded Space stabilized, and Lin Zhen's headache finally subsided. Although his Mental Power was still huddled in a corner of the neutron, the situation was completely different from before.

"Come on, unleash your Mental Impact on me to your heart's content. Whether I can break through depends on the power of the two of you."

********

Allen and Banahe are feeling much better now, because the two impacts just now had almost no backlash.

It's important to understand that each time they attacked Lin Zhen, they both suffered quite a bit. It was like someone's fist could smash a cactus, but every time they threw a punch, they would be attacked by the cactus's spikes. Even if someone had the ability to smash a cactus, they probably wouldn't be able to last long.

Lin Zhen's backlash suddenly disappeared; the two people's attacks seemed to have vanished without a trace.

"Hmm, what's going on?" Banahe asked.

"Perhaps his Mental Power is about to collapse, and he has no power to resist anymore. Let's try a little harder and completely defeat him. I have a feeling that as long as we break his Mental Power, his hiding place will definitely be exposed."

"Alright, now that there's no backlash, I can finally unleash my full power to attack."

Banahe finally felt liberated. Moreover, he most wanted to drive Lin Zhen's Mental Power out, because this grain of Ganges River Sand was a treasure of his New Delhi Church, and he couldn't let Lin Zhen take it away.

A series of Mental Impact hurtled toward Lin Zhen almost recklessly, Allen frowned slightly as he watched Banahe's actions.

Mind Power Master's attacks should be restrained, as excessive Mental Power consumption will affect combat effectiveness, Allen would not do such a thing lightly.

Besides, the battle here is invisible from the outside. Allen doesn't want to compete with Banahe. If you want to charge, then charge. When Lin Zhen comes out, I'll capture him. Then the position of Chief Judge will definitely be mine.

Seeing the two elders' smiles, everyone else also felt relaxed.

It seems that this battle to eradicate heretics is coming to an end.

An elder looked at Allen, who had opened his eyes and was smiling, and said, "Elder Allen, how is the situation? We can't see the battle, and we're all very anxious."

Allen smiled and said, "Don't worry, the situation is basically clear now. Lin Zhen must be on the edge of this boulder. I estimate that the most likely place is where he disappeared. Moreover, his Mental Power is currently fighting with me and Elder Banahe, and it is about to collapse. Once his Mental Power collapses, that will be the time for him to appear. Everyone, get ready."

Upon hearing that Lin Zhen was going to reappear, everyone around tensed up, took out their weapons, and carefully watched the spot where Lin Zhen had disappeared.

Allen chuckled, "Don't worry too much. After Lin Zhen's Mental Power collapses, he'll basically be an idiot. Just wait to capture him alive."

Hearing Allen's words, the others finally felt relieved.

"Haha! As expected, my Divine Cult elder is truly amazing, easily handling Lin Zhen."

"That's right. Don't you know who Elder Allen and Elder Banahe are? They are both Diamond-level Mind Power Master. Lin Zhen is lucky to have survived this long."

"This is good. We'll cut off Lin Zhen's dog head and take it back as a belated gift for His Majesty's ascension to the throne."

Allen had rested for a while, but seeing that Banahe was still attacking relentlessly, he gathered a powerful Mental Power and blasted it towards Lin Zhen's Mental Power in the corner.

He planned to finish off Lin Zhen with this one strike and end this tug-of-war of Mental Power.

The powerful Mental Impact struck Lin Zhen and then disappeared without any backlash.

"Something seems off." Allen frowned. If Lin Zhen was on the verge of death, how come she's still alright after all this time?

Moreover, the disappearance of Mental Power was quite strange, like throwing a stone into a river and seeing nothing but a few ripples.

For some reason, he had a bad feeling.

At this moment, Banahe summoned his Mental Power once more. "Either get out of my Ganges River Sand, or die!"

Boom!

After Banahe unleashed his Mental Impact, he expected the outcome to be the same as before, but things suddenly changed!

Lin Zhen's Mental Power suddenly surged a few times, and then spread outwards violently!

Like the rising tide, Lin Zhen's Mental Power surged forward rapidly, forcing the two men's Mental Power to retreat in the blink of an eye.

"This is impossible!" Allen's voice suddenly went hoarse because he felt that Lin Zhen's Mental Power was much Mental Power than theirs. It was not even on the same level. It was actually the Mental Power of the Mid-Diamond-level!

"It was just the early stage, how did it suddenly get to the middle stage?" Banahe was dumbfounded.

Allen suddenly sensed that Lin Zhen's Mental Power was brewing; he was about to unleash Mental Impact!

A feeling of unease washed over him. At that moment, Lin Zhen's Mental Power was like a monstrous beast that devoured everything, making Allen feel extremely dangerous. Without any hesitation, he immediately withdrew his Mental Power from the strange stone.

Banahe, however, was a step too slow. Although he sensed the great danger, he was reluctant to give up the stone. This simple delay made him too late!

Bang!

Banach 'Mental Sea of Consciousness suffered a huge impact. As a Diamond-level Mind Power Master, Banahe didn't even need to wear a mental defense Star Artifact. He took the full force of Lin Zhen's attack!

He tilted his head back, his eyes were unfocused, and the color of his pupils had almost disappeared!

He was already exhausted, while Lin Zhen a fresh force. His Diamond-level Mental Power was almost shattered by this attack. He screamed and his Mental Power completely withdrew from the stone.

At that moment, the people outside saw the stone glow for a moment, then rapidly shrink and finally disappear into the air.

A Gale swept in, and the entrance to the Ancient God City, which had been blocked, was opened!

"Lin Zhen is out! He's here!"

Someone shouted, and the space where the stone disappeared twisted, and Lin Zhen, who had disappeared for seven days, suddenly reappeared there out of thin air!

"Kill him!"

Allen shouted, and countless attacks were launched from all around.

A Rainstorm of weapons rained down on him, but Lin Zhen's body swayed and Teleport!

Allen launched his Mental Impact first, but it failed to interrupt Lin Zhen's Teleport. However, there was no backlash either; his Mental Power was completely wasted.

Lin Zhen's Teleport didn't take him very far, only a dozen meters, but that was enough to make the weapons' attacks miss.

This distance is the optimal range for Mental Impact.

The Mind Power Master present finally got their chance. More than a hundred Quasi-Star Realm Mind Power Master had gathered here, and more than ten of them launched an attack at the same time!

A Mental Impact was unleashed, but it had no effect whatsoever.

Instead, Lin Zhen suddenly opened his eyes wide and said, "Hehe, you've all worked so hard guarding this place for so many days. Here's a little gift for you!"

"Mental Shockwave!"

A wave, almost visible to the naked eye, surged in and swept across the crowd in an instant!

What followed was a scene that the whole world will remember forever.

One hundred and twenty Quasi-Star Realm experts, including even Stellar Realm expert named Banahe, were hit by Lin Zhen's shockwave.

Everyone maintained their previous pose, their gazes simultaneously unfocused, their bodies frozen in place.

Then, about a second later, everyone's nose, mouth, eyes, and ears simultaneously gushed out white brain matter and red blood, like a leaky balloon!

"Puff puff puff puff puff!"

Countless bodies collapsed. Neither the defenses of Top-Grade Star Artifact nor those of Top-Grade Star Artifact could withstand this shockwave, and more than a hundred people suffered brain death simultaneously!
