The Power of Genes

Upon seeing Cao Yang's appearance, Lin Zhen immediately understood.

This is yet another genetically enhanced individual.

Unlike Anderson, who was almost a mutant, he was successfully enhanced, except that the Gene Serum he consumed was not from the Star River Beast gene.

Among the enhanced individuals, about half consumed genes from ordinary Mutated Beast, while the remaining half consumed genes from beast kings.

Of the remaining quarter, half were low-level Star River Beast genes. Anderson belonged to this level, but he was a failure.

Then comes the Intermediate Star River Beast gene, and the Advanced Star River Beast gene.

As for the strongest Super Star River Beast genes, those are even rarer, one in ten thousand.

Cao Yang's current condition is that of a Beast King gene combat form; he has likely ingested the genes of a Mutated Ice Centipede.

Centipedes have many legs, which, when applied to a human body, translates to having multiple arms.

Cao Yang suddenly had hundreds of hands on his body, and countless weapons came raining down on him.

In Cao Yang's view, Lin Zhen simply couldn't withstand his move. How could one pair of hands possibly contend with his hundred pairs of hands!

Lin Zhen held his breath and focused his mind, his feet moving in a series of Plum Blossom Stakes steps. Just as Cao Yang's attack storm arrived, the Yin-Yang Long Spear suddenly thrust out!

Meteor!

A meteor streaked across the sky, crashing head-on into the enemy's weapon storm!

"Haha! Foolish! How can the power of a single spear withstand the might of a hundred hands? Die!"

Lin Zhen curled a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, ignoring Cao Yang's taunts, and suddenly exerted his strength when the two torrents collided!

The Starburst!

Countless Meteorite fragments erupted like a geyser, intercepting Cao Yang's attack in mid-air!

A series of impacts and explosions flashed before their eyes, and the bodies of the two people trembled in the shockwaves of the impact!

The thunderous collisions flattened the virtual ground of the Asura Arena, which then automatically repaired itself. After repair, it was blasted into craters again. This process was a contest of absolute strength between the two sides; whoever was exhausted first would lose!

Lin Zhen was also frantically expending his Star Power, and the impact of the collision made his muscles and bones feel sore.

This is a test of Star Power, but even more so a test of physical strength.

"Lin Zhen! Don't put up a fight! My body has been enhanced with Gene Serum. How can your mere human body possibly fight against me!"

Lin Zhen endured the soreness in his body; the continuous impact caused his feet to sink into the ground.

Just as he was starting to feel like he couldn't go on, a surge of fiery energy erupted from his body.

This strength comes from every cell and every muscle in his body, enabling him to persevere.

"This is Little Warm's power. My clone is the body of the Super Star River Beast Fire Qilin, so my genes are the strongest. It's just that my bloodline power hasn't been activated yet, but with the basic power of this body, I have no fear of Cao Yang's Beast King power!"

"If I were to truly obtain the Fire Qilin's genetic bloodline and successfully awaken my inner potential, just how powerful would this body become?"

"We must get the Gene Serum as soon as possible!"

Under Cao Yang's relentless attacks, Lin Zhen's physical potential was stimulated to a certain extent, which was enough to fight against Cao Yang!

After a minute-long exchange of blows, Lin Zhen held on, while Cao Yang's strength was no longer sufficient to support such a high-intensity attack.

The hundreds of hands behind him began to ache and had to stop.

"Impossible! This is impossible! You actually withstood the attacks of hundreds of my hands with just one shot!"

With the fighting over, Cao Yang stared at Lin Zhen in disbelief, as if he were looking at a monster.

"Did you also have your genes and bloodline enhanced?"

"Then you don't need to know so much. It's my turn to attack!"

"Star River Domain!"

Lin Zhen raised his hand, and the Star River Domain was activated again. Within a second, seven planets condensed in the air. He was preparing to use Starburst to end this battle.

Cao Yang is currently at his limit, and although it is brief, it is enough to determine the outcome of a battle. This is the benefit of having a powerful bloodline.

"You won't defeat me; the lord's position is mine!"

Cao Yang roared and finally unleashed his last move.

A green Poison Mist, enveloped in white Freezing Qi, shot out from between Lin Zhen's eyebrows, instantly enveloping him.

Seeing that Lin Zhen didn't dodge, Cao Yang laughed loudly, "You're finished! This is the venom of the Ice Centipede, enough to turn you into blood in a second. Goodbye, Lin Zhen!"

He laughed a few times, but quickly stopped.

Lin Zhen continued to control those planets, quickly setting up Net of Heaven and Earth around Cao Yang, and then a violent Starburst began.

Even Cao Yang's body, which had been enhanced by the Beast King Ice Centipede, couldn't withstand such a fierce bombardment. After more than a dozen planets exploded in succession, his body finally couldn't hold on any longer!

"Why? Why aren't you poisoned?"

"You don't need to know that, Cao Yang, your Blue Bay Star has lost!"

Lin Zhen raised his hand, and four more planets appeared within the Star River Domain, surrounding Cao Yang from four directions and exploding simultaneously!

In a blinding flash, Cao Yang's body was blasted to pieces and reduced to ashes!

Watching Cao Yang's body disappear from the scene, Lin Zhen raised her hand and waved away the pervasive toxins.

"Hmph! Using poison on me? You've brought shame upon yourself!"

Looking up at the surrounding audience, Lin Zhen said loudly, "The battle is over. I hope you all remember what I said before the war started: pay all your taxes, and immediately transfer power to my office. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

The scene was completely silent. The people of Sun Territory were so intimidated by Lin Zhen's powerful martial arts that they dared not utter a sound.

But many people still harbor wishful thinking: So what if you're Lin Zhen? You can't reach our planet, so we won't surrender and you can't do anything to us.

Lin Zhen was well aware of some people's thoughts, so he didn't waste any more time and simply left the Asura Arena.

The scene disappeared, and everyone withdrew from the Dimensional Universe.

The people of Sun Territory are now observing the attitude of Blue Bay Star. If Blue Bay Star continues to insist, then they will not pay taxes.

On the Blue Bay Star forum, there were indeed some people who were not convinced and clamored that if Lin Zhen was capable, he should come and collect taxes; if he wasn't, he should stay on Earth!

However, experts like Cao Yang remained silent. After all, they had cultivated for many years and were knowledgeable, knowing that with Lin Zhen's strength, he would probably arrive at Blue Bay Star sooner or later.

However, none of them expected Lin Zhen to arrive so quickly.

Three minutes after the Asura Arena ended, Lin Zhen's Eternal Crystal Spaceship appeared in the sky above Blue Bay Star.

"Master, we've arrived at Blue Bay Star."

"Call all the important figures on this planet! I want them in front of my ship within ten minutes. Anyone who doesn't arrive by then will be considered a traitor!"

Looking down at the beautiful planet where the ocean area was even larger than the Earth's proportion, Lin Zhen gave the order.

All the call messages within the Dimensional Universe were sent out, and news of Lin Zhen's arrival immediately spread throughout Blue Bay Star.

This news shattered the hopes of those who had been clinging to hope.

A powerful lord who possesses Light-Speed Spaceship demonstrates his immense wealth; such a lord is virtually invincible.

After that frenzied slaughter in the Asura Arena, no one doubted that Lin Zhen a ruthless guy, and at this point, no one dared to disobey his orders.

Within ten minutes, all the people on Blue Bay Star who had been called gathered in front of the Eternal Crystal Spaceship.

As the top expert on Blue Bay Star, Cao Yang stood at the front of the group, looking at the spaceship that was entirely made of Eternal Crystal, and only then did he deeply realize the huge gap between himself and Lin Zhen.

This one spaceship alone may be an immense fortune that he can never attain.

Everyone stood below for a full hour before the spaceship door opened, and the first to emerge were a hundred experts from the Star Stage.

These people stood on either side, and then two Black Wing Clan warriors came out.

"Star Level Nine! Star Level Nine Mind Power Master! That's almost on par with Martial God Cao Yang!"

The people below were whispering among themselves.

Zi Shisan and Zi Shiqi stood at the front of the line, and then a beautiful figure appeared at the entrance of the spaceship.

The beautiful Black Wing Clan princess, Zi Qianxia, stepped out.

"My God! Black Hole Late Stage!"

"She's about to become a Star System Stage expert, and she's not a slave. Who is this person?"

"Does Lin Zhen intend to wipe out our planet? The entire population of our planet combined couldn't stop these hundred-odd people."

"Damn it, how could I have been so blinded by greed to challenge the lord? Could he be jealous that I challenged him and frame me for it?"

"Forget it, he won't remember you. You're just one of those thousands who got headshot and killed instantly. You're not worth him remembering."

Amidst everyone's apprehension, Zi Qianxia bowed slightly and invited Lin Zhen to step out of the cabin.

Lin Zhen held Zi Qianxia's hand and looked down at the dark mass of people below.

"Have you forgotten what I said?"

The king from the Azure Dragon Holy Kingdom, sweating profusely, said, "Your Excellency, we haven't forgotten. It's just that you arrived too quickly, and we haven't had time to transfer the tax payment to you yet. But it would be even better if you came in person, so we could hand it over to you in person."

"Remember, it's double!"

"Yes, yes, absolutely double, not a penny less."

Lin Zhen slowly walked down and stopped at Cao Yang's location. "Do you still want to be a lord?"

Cao Yang gave a wry smile and shook his head, "Lord, please don't ridicule me. I was ignorant and arrogant back then. Cao Yang will personally apologize to you at the welcome banquet later."

Lin Zhen then smiled and patted the other person on the shoulder, "I can hold my liquor, so be prepared."

Seeing Lin Zhen smile, the people of Blue Bay Star breathed a long sigh of relief, as long as Lin Zhen didn't punish them.

At this moment, notifications kept coming from Lin Zhen's Dimensional Universe, and remittances were arriving from all the planets in the Sun Territory!
