White Magnolia Star's Great Manhunt

Batch after batch of Star Power identification instruments were transported from Kirin Saint Star to White Magnolia Star.

This identification device can determine whether a certain animal or object possesses Star Power.

The Five Ghosts have already found out how Lin Zhen disappeared. The Shapeshifting Art is not some great secret, and they discovered it very quickly.

However, Lin Zhen, that bastard, has very strong Star Power. Even if he transforms into some object, these Bao Zi from White Magnolia Star would have no chance of discovering him, right under their noses.

Only this Star Power Identifier can search for anything with Star Power. The Five Ghosts ordered everyone to conduct a full-scale search, ensuring that Lin Zhen had no chance to hide.

The White Magnolia Star is connected to the universe. Although the inhabitants of the planet are not particularly strong, they are mostly martial artists, with many at the God of War Level or Stellar Realm.

They are capable of leaping and flying, and with this identification device covering a range of hundreds of meters, their search area is extremely large.

Under the threat of the Seven Great Fiends in the arena, the White Magnolia Star was unable to put up any resistance. All the residents who were able to leave carried Star Power identification devices and launched a massive manhunt across the entire planet.

In deserts, grasslands, mountains, and Gobi, crowds of people with identification devices are searching everywhere. This carpet search leaves no corner unchecked.

Even in rivers, divers roam, and ships sail everywhere on the ocean, with trawl nets carrying identification instruments sweeping in circles.

Various aircraft flew back and forth in the air, not missing a single bird, a cloud, or a drop of rain!

The Five Ghosts didn't believe that Lin Zhen could escape under such circumstances.

Whenever any substance with Star Power is discovered somewhere, he and Ying Huo will rush there immediately to see if it is Lin Zhen in disguise.

The massive net-sweeping operation has entered its twentieth day.

"Mommy, Mommy! I don't like this thing, I want to go home!"

A little girl with two pigtails followed behind her mother, holding a Star Power detector in her hand, pouting as she walked along unhappily.

Her mother turned around and said, "Ya Ya, after we finish clearing this field today and meet up with the people clearing it on the other side, we can go home. You must be good and listen to your earphones. If you hear a beeping sound, tell your mother where you see a red dot."

"Mom, why are we looking for the red dots?"

"Because that red dot is a bad guy, and we can only go home if we find him."

"But Ya Ya thinks those who forced me to come here are the bad guys!"

Her mother's face changed in fright, and she quickly covered Ya Ya's mouth. "My dear daughter, you must not say anything like that. It would be terrible if someone heard you."

Ya Ya nodded slightly, knowing that the situation was serious; the people surrounding White Magnolia Star all looked very fierce.

After distancing herself from her mother and returning to her assigned area, Ya Ya walked slowly across the grass.

Not long after I started walking, a beeping sound suddenly came from my earphones.

The sound was inaudible to others. Everyone had something like a visor in front of them, which indicated their range of vision. Ya Ya immediately saw a red dot right in front of her.

Ya Ya squatted down, looked down at the little thing in front of her.

It was a Little Green, pitch black, without a single impurity.

Its eyes were open, and it seemed as if there were Xinghe spinning inside, making it look very mysterious.

This is the thing that emitted the Star Power.

Ya Ya looked down at the Little Green, and the Little Green looked up at her too; neither of them moved.

"You're so ugly! You're all black, like a piece of charcoal."

Ya Ya stretched out her finger and gently pressed the Little Green. The Little Green was cold and smooth all over, like a piece of marble.

"But looking at you closely, you're actually quite cute, hehe!"

After touching you a couple of times, Ya Ya became conflicted. "They're supposed to report immediately if they find someone with Star Power, but if I report you, you might get arrested. What should I do?"

The Little Green stuck out its bright red tongue and gently licked Ya Ya's palm, as if begging her not to betray it.

Ya Ya looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to her, then took some clumsy little steps, picked up a few pieces of mud, and built a small house.

"You can stay here. If you stay here, you'll have a house, and you won't have to worry about being discovered by others."

After putting the Little Green inside the house, Ya Ya clapped her hands and stood up.

"Sister's leaving now, bye-bye little one!"

After saying that, Ya Ya took small steps, caught up with the group ahead, and followed her mother into the distance.

"Mom! I did something meaningful today."

"Really? What did Ya Ya do?"

"Hehe. This is my secret."

*********

The Little Green squatted inside its mud house, watching the crowd gradually disappear into the distance, secretly feeling fortunate.

This Little Green is Lin Zhen. Knowing that he cannot leave for the time being, Lin Zhen Xuan Ze to focus on his cultivation. His Dark Star Power is slowly increasing, and his physical realm is also improving.

Lin Zhen could even transform into sand and vegetation, making him even harder to spot. However, sand and vegetation have a drawback: they cannot move. If he were to encounter someone searching for him, transforming into something else would be too conspicuous.

So Lin Zhen decided to transform into an animal so that she could quietly escape if she discovered the searchers.

Too big won't do, too small won't do either, so Lin Zhen finally Xuan Ze to become a frog, black and inconspicuous.

However, after turning into a frog, he felt much less comfortable hiding in the mud, and due to his cultivation, he didn't notice the crowd until they were right in front of him.

The crowd formed a circle, and they needed to close in before they could finish. There were also people searching from the sky, and the identification device was a hundred meters in diameter, so it couldn't be hidden even underground. For a moment, Lin Zhen had nowhere to go, no matter where he went.

Until this little girl named Ya Ya walked up to her.

Lin Zhen was prepared. If the little girl revealed her location, he would immediately kill everyone there and then quickly find another place to lie in wait.

However, Lin Zhen didn't want to do that unless absolutely necessary, as the chances of being exposed were too high. He could easily be entangled by the Five Ghosts Ying Huo, and might even be captured.

Moreover, Lin Zhen didn't want to kill ordinary people; they were pitiful people too.

But unexpectedly, the little girl named Ya Ya didn't report it to him, and instead built him a small hut out of mud.

Watching Ya Ya skip away, Lin Zhen let out a deep breath.

If he can get through this ordeal, he will give Ya Ya a future, a future with infinite brightness.

***********

After this search, Lin Zhen enjoyed three months of quiet life.

After all, searching for a planet is not a simple task. Once this place has been searched, people will have to search for other places and will not be returning for a while.

Lin Zhen stayed quietly on this grassland, living as a Little Green, but his cultivation never stopped.

By the third month, Lin Zhen's Dark Star, driven by the power of the Heart of Plants and Trees, made another breakthrough and reached the late Mesozoic Era.

This advancement brought Lin Zhen another 1,200 Star Power.

After the Original Star Power increased by 1200, it has now reached 9000!

The clone also increased its power once again, reaching Star Power of seven thousand.

Using Star Power Transfer, Lin Zhen's total strength has reached 16,000!

This Star Power value is basically on par with Five Ghosts or Ying Huo. In a one-on-one fight, Lin Zhen is confident of victory, but in a two-on-one fight, Lin Zhen is not so confident.

Therefore, Lin Zhen did not act rashly. If he did not appear, he would not do so. If he did appear, he must have an absolute advantage, otherwise going out would be suicide, because the enemies here were not only the Five Ghosts and Ying Huo.

His physical strength was still slowly increasing, moving towards the Black Hole Late Stage realm. Only after his physical strength advanced could Lin Zhen be confident of leaving White Magnolia.

After three months of this, Lin Zhen knew he couldn't stay in this wilderness any longer.

Five Ghosts and his group had lost patience. They no longer believed in the strength of White Magnolia and the other residents, and instead began to send people here from the arena.

The power of the Seven Great Fiends is immeasurable. They control the entire Star System Arena of the 68th War Zone, and finding allies would be incredibly easy for them.

This time, a whopping 100 million Star System Stage powerhouses have arrived!

Among them, there are more than 10,000 great gods with Star Power exceeding 10,000, such as Xuan Jiang!

Each powerful being with over 10,000 Star Power led a team of 10,000 Star System Stage cultivators. A total of 10,000 such teams once again began a massive search on White Magnolia Star!

Seeing this situation, Lin Zhen knew he had to change his hiding method.

"To hide perfectly, I must become a smaller object. Except for things like dust and microorganisms that I cannot change, I can change into other small things."

"Living objects pose too great a risk; they're prime targets for the enemy, so we can't change them. But small, non-living objects can't move, which is also a drawback. What isn't a living thing, yet can move?"

Lin Zhen's gaze fell upon a large river in the distance.

The Nalan River is the largest river on the White Magnolia Star, flowing vastly across the continent and into the ocean.

"I've got it! I can turn into a grain of sand, a grain of sand in the Nalan River, mixed in with countless other grains of sand. I don't need to move; the river will carry me forward, and I won't be easily detected."

"Even if someone discovers the faint Star Power here, it will definitely not be an easy task for him to find me among countless grains of sand. Moreover, he will have to be careful of my counterattack."

Having made up his mind, Lin Zhen left his mud hut and hopped towards the distant Nalan River.
