Chapter 590: Chapter 491: The Same Race

Si Renjie also clapped his hands: “That’s right, both of you have the Fire Kirin Bloodline, and when you reach the Original World, you will be together.”

Lin Zhen sat next to Tian Haoyu: “Brother, what’s the situation of the Kirin Clan in the Original World?”

Tian Haoyu is a World King, an experienced one at that, having lived for seven to eight thousand years. Moreover, he is the emperor of an Advanced Cosmic Nation, so his knowledge about the Original World is undoubtedly far more than Lin Zhen’s.

Tian Haoyu started: “The situation is not too complicated. Within the Original World, the Star River Giant Beast Alliance is just a loose alliance. The tribes are quite scattered, currently, it seems like the Chief of the Dragon Clan is serving as the alliance leader.”

“We in the Kirin Clan are divided into several tribes, each of which is quite large, consisting of high-ranking members and ordinary members. High-ranking members must have the Fire Kirin bloodline, and there’s an innumerable quantity of ordinary members. As for all those beasts you can see at our rear, they are under the jurisdiction of the Kirin Clan.”

Lin Zhen turned back to look. Among all the Galaxy Beasts, the beasts were the most numerous. Even if only one in a thousand of these people could enter the Original World, the number would still be incredible.

“So, the Kirin Clan is the biggest tribe in the Star River Giant Beast Alliance, even more numerous than the Dragon Clan, but there’s a wide gap in quality. The Dragon Clan has members like the Golden Dragon, Black Dragon, White Dragon, as well as Flood Dragons, Pythons, Earth Traveling Dragons etc. They might have fewer members, but their overall quality is stronger.”

“To vie for the leadership of the Star River Giant Beast Alliance, the clan puts great emphasis on the training of key members. Take this Heavenly Gate challenge, if you are the first to pass through at a certain Realm, you will definitely get the highest reward from the clan. That’s why I said your competition is Ke Xiangnan, because we both share the Fire Kirin Bloodline.”

Si Renjie chimed in: “I originally thought that Ke Xiangnan would definitely be the best in the Kirin Clan, even being the first in the Black Hole Period Stage, but I didn’t expect that Lin Zhen would make a surprise move halfway. I guess Ke Xiangnan must be troubled now.”

Tian Haoyu also let out a slight sneer: “Not only will he be troubled, Ke Xianglong of the Sorcerer Empire will also be troubled. Thinking of how that old fellow is scratching his head right now, I feel quite pleased.”

Si Renjie laughed loudly: “Tian Haoyu, it’s because Ke Xianglong grabbed your first place in the World King Stage of the Fire Kirin Clan, right? He ascended to the Original World before you did. He’s likely to reach the Longevity Realm in the future.”

Tian Haoyu snorted: “Just because he reached the Original World first doesn’t mean he can upgrade to the Longevity Realm. When he left, he was worried about his son’s situation, hoping his son could ascend to the Original World as the first in the Black Hole Period. If that happens, he would have no worries and might really have a chance to upgrade to the Longevity Realm. But if his son doesn’t take first place, he may not be able to upgrade at all. His son is his weakness!”

As he spoke, Tian Haoyu clapped Lin Zhen on the shoulder: “Little brother, whether for your own sake, for the Fire Kirin Empire, or to help your big brother, can you help me snatch the first place from Ke Xiangnan? Particularly the first place in the Black Hole Period Stage.”

Lin Zhen smiled bitterly: “Brother, no one can guarantee that. After all, I only reached 420,000 kilometers for the first time, while Ke Xiangnan reached 510,000, a difference of almost 100,000.”

“Don’t play dumb with me, kid. I know you’re hiding your strength. Anyway, I’m counting on you whether you agree or not. From today on, I’ll be with you every day, supervising your practice so you don’t slack off. Little brother, whether your big brother can upgrade to the Longevity Realm, I’m counting on you!”

Lin Zhen, rendered speechless, looked at this stubborn emperor and thought to himself that appearances can be deceiving. Even this once mighty emperor, who communicated with trillions of subjects, has such a side to him.

Si Renjie also spoke up for Tian Haoyu: “Little brother, you really have to help with this. Tian Haoyu and Ke Xianglong are direct competitors. They’ve been at odds with each other since childhood, both are emperors of Advanced Cosmic Nations, both have the Fire Kirin Bloodline, and they each regard the other as their biggest enemy. If one of them upgrades to the Longevity Realm, the other might never be able to upgrade out of disappointment. You can’t leave him in the lurch.”

To make matters worse, Tian Haoyu grabbed Lin Zhen’s robes, like he wouldn’t let go if Lin Zhen didn’t agree.

Lin Zhen was speechless. He patted Tian Haoyu on the shoulder: “Brother, even if you didn’t say it, I, Lin Zhen am not the kind of person who tolerates defeat. I promise you, I will get that first place!”

“Great! I knew you wouldn’t let me down, little brother. From today onwards, you’re my true brother! Let’s call each other brother from now on!”

Si Renjie also clenched his fist, shouting: “Oh yes!”

Lin Zhen was dumbfounded, looking at Si Renjie: “Senior, what did you just shout?”

Si Renjie was also taken aback, “I don’t know what it means, but I’ve heard people shout it when they’re excited. I learned it because it seems to have momentum. I wonder which planet it came from? Little brother, what does it mean?”

Lin Zhen scratched his head, he found the phrase familiar but couldn’t recall the exact meaning.

Watching Si Renjie and Tian Haoyu high five each other in celebration, Lin Zhen knew their relationship was very strong.

Quite quickly, the two World Kings further refreshed Lin Zhen’s impressions. They sat on both sides of Lin Zhen, their shoulders interlocking like close friends. Tian Haoyu even took out a large amount of delicious food and fine wine, and they started drinking on the spot.

“Come on, try this. This is a fruit I grew in my internal world. It’s called Dragon and Phoenix Fragrance. It’s delicious to accompany with wine. Try some.”

“I have something too. This is wild Demon Pig Meat. I caught a bunch and raised them in my internal world. Even though they pee and poop every day which is a bit annoying, the taste of the meat is extraordinary.”

Seeing the two of them conjuring things from their internal worlds like magic, Lin Zhen recognized the usefulness of a World King’s internal world.

It’s not just for cultivation, it can also be used to raise pigs. This truly shattered his worldview.

The wine of Tian Haoyu was very powerful, making all of them a little dizzy. After they had finished drinking, their relationship had significantly deepened.

The two World Kings fell asleep right where they were at, reminding Lin Zhen before they slept not to slouch off and to start practicing immediately. He absolutely cannot lose to Ke Xiangnan.

Lin Zhen wanted to start cultivating too. Now that things have changed, his cultivation plans need to be altered accordingly.

Lin Zhen’s original plan was to enter the Star System Stage as soon as he ignited Ying Huo. With the power of 100,000 stars, he should be able to resist the force of the Black Hole transformation.

However, after passing through the Heavenly Gate, Lin Zhen found out that the Star Power gained from Star Energy Transfer was not omnipotent.

If Star Energy Transfer cannot be used while passing through the Heavenly Gate, it is possible that it wouldn’t be helpful while breaking through the Star System Stage either.

In such a case, not only would Lin Zhen be unable to enter the Star System Stage, but he may also fall into oblivion.

The most secure method was to let his body’s Star Power exceed one hundred thousand, only then could he ensure a smooth transition through this ordeal.

Especially since Lin Zhen had agreed to compete with Ke Xiangnan for the top position in the Black Hole Stage, he couldn’t afford to advance any longer.

“My current body’s Star Power is seventy thousand. There’s still a deficit of at least thirty thousand. To bridge this gap, I must awaken the Yue Bei Star.”

“It’s been less than half a year since I last expanded my Dark Star Space. To do so again, it might not even be possible in a hundred years. There’s no way around this. I’ll just have to train harder.”

The expansion of the Dark Star Space could be achieved by Lin Zhen’s cultivation, but it wasn’t the same as cultivating the Dantian Qi Sea. Usually, it did not add to Star Power, but only increased the size of the space slightly.

Since the growth of the Dark Star had already reached its limit, only by awakening Yue Bei could he increase his Star Power.

And so, the long days of cultivation began….

**********

Far from the Life Pillar, there is a large group of spacecraft, like a city, all parked by Martial Artists.

In the clusters of spacecraft, a flying palace was particularly conspicuous—it looked like a villa.

Inside the cabin, there was a massive swimming pool with crystal clear water.

By the poolside, a group of slender servants held towels, Red Wine, and other items, waiting by the water.

“Splash~!”

A water wave soared into the sky. A behemoth emerged from the pool.

With a mane as flaming as fire, golden scales over its body, and chilly gleam in its monster eyes.

Its giant head swayed, spouting Mars from its nostrils, spreading a sulfuric smell.

Over ten meters long, it was a Fire Kirin that had entered its growing period!

The Fire Kirin crawled out of the pool to the shore, where the servants immediately came forward to wipe its scales and hair.

The Fire Kirin spoke in human language, “Xiangnan, it’s time to come out. How much longer do you plan to stay in there? Remember, you’re a Fire Kirin, not a Water Kirin. It should be our habit to dwell in volcanoes.”

Gurgle~!

A chain of bubbles rose from under the water, and another creature appeared.

This creature seemed also to be a Fire Kirin but hadn’t fully evolved yet. To become a real Kirin, it needed to reach the growth stage which it currently wasn’t. It was still in the Infant Stage.

However, it wasn’t far away from the growth stage. Its level of Kirin Transformation was already 70% complete.

Unlike the previous Fire Kirin, it didn’t maintain the Kirin form after getting out of the water. Instead, it became a burly youth laying there, allowing the servants to dry him and massage him.

“Bro, even the Fire Kirin need to take a bath, not to mention we are bloodline awakeners, not naturally born. There should be no issues if I keep some human habits, right?”

The massive Fire Kirin, enjoying the massage from the servants, squinted his eyes, “Of course, there’s no issue. You can bathe however you want, but I hope you don’t get too disheartened. If mere trifles upset you, I would seriously doubt if you still hold any hope to pass the Heavenly Gate.”

Ke Xiangnan snorted coldly, “Bro, you are underestimating me. Don’t forget I’m currently the number one in Black Hole Stage. I only have one competitor now. You’d better worry about yourself. The competition at your Domain King Stage is intense.”

“Ho Ho! Many competitors are not scary. In fact, they make dominating easier. However, having just one competitor can be frightening. Given your current state, Xiangnan, that Lin Zhen is not easy!”

The huge Fire Kirin shook its fiery mane, splashing water droplets around. Several servants’ thin bath towels got soaked.

He shook off the water droplets and transformed into a man.

One of the princes of the Sorcerer Empire, a formidable fighter at the Star Domain Stage, a member of the Fire Kirin Clan—Ke Xiangdong.
