A Single Strike Decides Life and Death!

The pirates on the Eternal Crystal Battleship watched the battle unfold with their hearts in their throats.

What was originally thought to be a glorious and destructive journey turned out to be a disaster from the start. Lin Zhen was surprisingly strong and could hold his own against a Star System Stage expert.

They only felt a little relieved when Xi Lan Ke gained the upper hand.

Lin Zhen did not panic when faced with Xi Lan Ke after his transformation.

Having an advantage doesn't guarantee he'll win.

With a thought, the clone that had been inside the Dark Star Space finally appeared.

After the clone appeared, it immediately joined the battle without any hesitation, wielding the Yajiao Spear.

Lin Zhen's technique of combining his main body and clones to attack has reached a level of perfection. The two people with Star Power of 300 joined forces and immediately neutralized Xi Lan Ke's advantage.

The twin pistols moved like Gale and Rainstorm —no, even more violent and swift than a real tempest—instantly turning the tide of the battle.

"So you really do have a clone, Lin Zhen. This must be your trump card!"

Xi Lan Ke was not flustered by the appearance of Lin Zhen's clone. He had expected this all along. He had investigated Lin Zhen before coming, and Tian Ci had also told him that Lin Zhen had a clone whose strength was no less than that of the main body, and that he should be careful.

Xi Lan Ke believed he had achieved a thorough understanding of himself and his enemy, so he was not afraid of Lin Zhen's clone.

He wielded two longswords, one icy and one Blazing Fire. Although this wasn't a clone, it still possessed the ability to fight two people simultaneously.

Moreover, Lin Zhen discovered that Xi Lan Ke's skill with both hands was no worse than when he used only one knife.

The situation, which had just begun to turn around, quickly became passive again.

"Hahaha! Lin Zhen, do you think my Ice and Fire Two-Headed Dragon Transformation is just about casting fire and ice spells? Both of my hands possess the same power. This talent is actually the same as my clone technique, so your clones have no advantage whatsoever!"

Xi Lan Ke's sweeping attacks forced Lin Zhen's main body and clone to maintain perfect coordination in order to withstand them. If they were to separate even slightly, they would be immediately attacked by the opponent's dual swords and fall into danger.

It turns out that Xi Lan Ke had been holding back earlier, and only when Lin Zhen's clone appeared did he unleash his true power!

"Warning! Warning! Master, be careful! Since transforming, Xi Lan Ke's Star Power has been steadily increasing, and it's already approaching 500!"

Chris gave Lin Zhen a timely warning.

"No wonder it was so difficult; I underestimated my opponent from the Star System Stage."

Lin Zhen wielded his twin pistols, finding it increasingly difficult to defend himself. At this moment, he finally realized the true strength of Star System Stage cultivator.

Because he had just broken through, he hadn't had a chance to fight against the Star System Stage in the Simulation Field yet. He never expected that his first battle would be a real, genuine duel.

At this point, Lin Zhen had no choice but to resort to his own methods.

Immovable as a Mountain, Phantom God Strike, Thunder Kill, Meteor Fall – he unleashed a variety of Spear Art, and despite being at a disadvantage, he still posed a significant threat to Xi Lan Ke.

However, the difference in absolute strength cannot be bridged by simple means, especially since Xi Lan Ke, as Star System Stage, also possesses many deadly moves.

As the battle progressed, Lin Zhen's disadvantage became more and more obvious!

When Xi Lan Ke's Frost Blade struck Lin Zhen's clone, the battle seemed to have reached a point of no return!

Amidst Xi Lan Ke's sinister laughter, he launched a relentless attack, each strike faster than the last.

His attack strategy was also very clear: to launch a strong attack on Lin Zhen's main body. The icy and Blazing Fire sword technique was indeed very troublesome. Lin Zhen's main body was Black Hole Beast, a mutated Fire Qilin, which had a strong resistance to fire, but the extreme cold made Lin Zhen somewhat uncomfortable.

The temperature of this ice is close to minus two hundred degrees Celsius, which is tens of degrees colder than the night on Pluto.

Xi Lan Ke also realized that the ice was more effective, so he accelerated the application of the Freezing Qi, making Lin Zhen's battle increasingly difficult.

In order to assist the main body, the clone was stabbed in the waist, and the wound was quite large.

Seeing this, the pirates on the warship cheered loudly, ready to celebrate their victory.

Once Lin Zhen is eliminated, this journey to the Sun Territory will be more than halfway over. Although there are many people left, they have no power to resist the Star System Stage.

Seeing the increasingly arrogant Xi Lan Ke, Lin Zhen felt that the time for the final battle had come.

Clone Armorization!

A layer of fiery red Scale Armor covered the clone, concealing the wounds on its body.

Both the main body and the clone simultaneously unleashed their Star Power, their entire bodies shimmering with starlight that was blinding.

"Xi Lan Ke, let's settle this once and for all!"

After the clones Armorization, the combat power of the main body and the clones increased once again. Lin Zhen seemed to have gone all out and began to launch a fierce attack on Xi Lan Ke regardless of everything.

Xi Lan Ke was nearly two thousand years old and had extremely rich combat experience. Seeing Lin Zhen's offensive, he knew that Lin Zhen was going all out. This should be his last gamble. As long as he could hold out, he would surely win this battle.

Xi Lan Ke's strategy was sound, but this was exactly the moment Lin Zhen had been waiting for.

The main body and the clone attacked from the front together.

The Yin-Yang and World's End spears resembled two intertwined venomous snakes, with a single cold star at their tips never straying from Xi Lan Ke's vitals. The Unstoppable martial arts technique was activated, doubling its destructive power!

"Clang clang clang clang~~!!"

Xi Lan Ke retreated steadily, parrying with his twin swords at a measured pace. His Star Power had now increased to nearly 500, and he was not afraid of Lin Zhen's powerful attack.

Whoosh!

The main body and the clone intertwined, the figure swaying, as if the body was equipped with springs.

For a moment, Xi Lan Ke felt a little dizzy.

Swish swish swish~!

The figures kept flashing and overlapping, and under the cover of the gun's light, Lin Zhen's main body and Xi Lan Ke.

"Lin Zhen! Don't play these childish tricks. Do you think you can fool me?"

His twin blades suddenly accelerated, revealing his Star System Stage level strength. His blade speed far exceeded Lin Zhen's spear speed, and no matter how Lin Zhen used his illusion techniques, he could calmly parry and dodge.

You may have a thousand brilliant plans, but I have a set rules. As long as his speed surpasses Lin Zhen's, Lin Zhen's Spear Art techniques and footwork will be useless.

Time Acceleration!

The Yin-Yang Long Spear suddenly accelerated, thrusting ten times faster towards Xi Lan Ke's throat.

"Buzz~!"

It still blocked!

Lin Zhen's face turned ashen. He hadn't expected Xi Lan Ke to be so strong that he could actually withstand a shot that Time Acceleration while he was covering up his own zigzagging footwork.

"Haha! You really do have the ability to Time Acceleration. Tian Ci didn't lie to me. But Lin Zhen, you're too green. Although my cultivation level far surpasses yours, if I weren't careful, I would have been dead long ago, my Bone rotted away. You think I underestimated you? No, no, no! That was all an illusion I created to deceive you. You little brat, trying to outmaneuver me in skill and intellect? You can train for another thousand years, but I won't give you that chance!"

"I don't believe it! Go to hell!"

Lin Zhen roared wildly, his clone launched another powerful attack, Time Acceleration, Yajiao Spear Meteor Fall!

Xi Lan Ke's face darkened. "Telling you is useless!"

Wielding his twin swords, Lin Zhen seemed to have run out of tricks and was preparing to end the fight.

If you look at it from the front at this moment, you will see that the three people are standing in a straight line, with the clone in the middle, Lin Zhen behind, Xi Lan Ke in front.

From the side, it can be seen that Lin Zhen's main body and his clone are firing their guns at the same time.

The clone attacks head-on, while the main body fires a gun at the clone!

From Xi Lan Ke's angle, he couldn't see the main body drawing its gun.

The clone charged forward with a do-or-die attitude, thrusting out the Cliff Edge Yajiao Spear fiercely.

"Get out of my way!"

With a swift upward slash of his twin blades, Xi Lan Ke prepared to take down this troublesome clone first.

Pfft!

A burst of blood bloomed on the clone's chest, and time accelerated once more!

Lin Zhen actually pierced the clone's chest with a single shot, using the clone as a shield and cover, attacking Xi Lan Ke in such an unbelievable way!

This shot was far beyond Xi Lan Ke's expectations. He never dreamed that Lin Zhen would be so ruthless and decisive, actually disregarding the life and death of his clone in order to assassinate him.

Seeing that cold glint pierce through the clone's chest and approach him, Xi Lan Ke hurriedly dodged.

Although the shot was strange, it was still a little short of being able to hit him, even with Time Acceleration.

At that moment, he saw the cold smile in the clone's eyes.

Mental Evil Spirit Impact!

Lin Zhen's Mental Evil Spirit Impact directly blasted into Xi Lan Ke's mind!

"Oh dear! This won't slow me down, because I have two heads!"

Xi Lan Ke was hit on one head, but his two-headed dragon clones could control his body simultaneously and were able to dodge.

The most incredible thing happened, and that changed the situation.

The space around Xi Lan Ke seemed to freeze.

He saw himself slowly raising his hand, slowly taking a step, and slowly making dodging movements.

But in front of him, Lin Zhen's clone, with the tip of a spear protruding from its chest, approached with lightning speed!

The opponent accelerates tenfold, while he decelerates tenfold; this situation instantly reverses the situation!

Even with his Star System Stage abilities, he couldn't escape this ambush.

The Long Spear pierced his throat, and blood splattered everywhere!

Xi Lan Ke wasn't without ways to save his life; even if he were stabbed in the throat, he still had ways to save himself. Unfortunately, Lin Zhen would never give him that chance.

The deep night sky enveloped the area around Xi Lan Ke, and countless planets appeared.

Let the Tianhe Star Burst!

A series of enormous and dazzling fireworks began to explode, forcing Xi Lan Ke to swallow all his subsequent plans.

The Scale Armor were blasted to shreds, the flesh began to break apart, and the mind began to blur.

He was truly unwilling to accept this; he was a Star System Stage!

Never before in history has Star Stage been known to kill Star System Stage, yet Lin Zhen did it.

Xi Lan Ke died with his eyes wide open in disbelief, but he had lost.

He didn't lose because of a lack of ability, but because of a lack of mental strategy.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhen feigned weakness and lured the enemy in, even more unexpectedly, Lin Zhen was able to decisively shoot at the clone, and even more unexpectedly, Lin Zhen still Time Deceleration the attack.

Lin Zhen watched as Xi Lan Ke was blasted apart in mid-air and said expressionlessly, "Xi Lan Ke, you are still too superstitious about your strength. In the face of absolute strength, all Ketu useless, but when the difference in strength is not that great, wisdom is also a decisive factor."

"You've lived for almost two thousand years, and I'm about the same age too."

The Star River Domain dissipates, Xi Lan Ke dies!
