Chapter 230 : Chapter 230 : The Battle of Sunflower (Update
“Hahaha! You’re still putting up resistance, Lin Zhen. Today, unless you commit suicide, I’ll tear you to shreds. Lanslow, cut off Lin Zhen’s retreat for me while I kill him!”
Lanslow immediately moved along the edge of the sunflower, planning to intercept Lin Zhen from another direction.
You should know, the center of the sunflower is all seeds. The gaps between each seed are not small, and the tapered part of the seeds are even smaller than the human foot. Any attempts to walk smoothly there would be virtually impossible, and once you’re surrounded, there’s no way to escape.
Lin Zhen was aware of this. He had no plans to escape anyway. Since he had encountered the toughest of the War Gods, he had to test his opponent’s strength.
Mental shock!
The spiritual power in the Dark Gold Late Stage roared out, directly targeting Huo Luofu’s Spiritual Consciousness Sea.
“Boom!”
Lin Zhen felt as if his spiritual power had hit an invisible wall, and was immediately rebuked without causing any harm to Huo Luofu.
“Hahaha! Didn’t I tell you my Spiritual Consciousness Sea had undergone variation and solidification? Any kind of spiritual attack is useless against me, Lin Zhen. Are you still struggling beyond your abilities?”
Seeing that spiritual power was indeed ineffective, Lin Zhen gripped the Tyrant Spear and thrust it with all his might.
Storm!
The spear shadows filled the sky like a rainstorm, enveloping vast stretches of space.
Huo Luofu sneered and walked large strides towards Lin Zhen, oblivious to the storm of spears.
As soon as Lin Zhen’s spear rain entered inside the five-meter radius around Huo Luofu, Lin Zhen suddenly felt that the spear weighed tons. An invisible pressure descended from the sky, making it difficult for him to even hold the spear, let alone stand upright!
“Gravity Field ! ”
Lin Zhen exclaimed, startled by the revelation that Huo Luofu was not only an Innate Power King, he also mastered Gravity Field.
Gravity Field is a rather unique method of attack. It can be achieved just by manipulating the Dantian Qi. Huo Luofu was at the center of an invisible pressure field spreading out, spanning several meters; everything within was subjected to his gravity suppression.
Lin Zhen felt as though he had a mountain on his shoulders. Lifting the Tyrant Spear for an attack was wishful thinking. His muscles and bones screamed from the immense pressure suddenly bearing down on them.
“Hahaha! You’re observant. Right, this is the Gravity Field. Lin Zhen, right now, I’ve activated ten-fold pressure. Within ten meters around me, every square centimeter is subjected to a pressure ten times heavier than usual. For instance, if your spear weighs 500 kilograms, now it’s 5,000 kilograms. Lin Zhen, can you still swing it?”
“Your weight has increased ten-fold under my pressure. It becomes very difficult for you to even straighten your back. Lin Zhen, do you still want to fight?”
Lin Zhen used the Tyrant Spear to prop himself up, refusing to let his body fall, bearing the immense pressure with gritted teeth.
“Don’t resist anymore. Be a good boy and let me catch you, then I’ll tear you apart like a rag doll.”
Huo Luofu stepped forward, extending his huge palm, ready to grab Lin Zhen’s neck.
Lin Zhen hung his head low while amassing power within his body.
“No wonder Tong Yuehu had no means to resist. This guy is immune to spiritual attacks and also has the Gravity Field. Any object in the Gravity Field will suffer immense pressure, making it impossible to move. To break the Gravity Field, the only method is the energy body!”
“Only energy bodies aren’t affected by gravitational suppression. I need to counter-attack!”
Huo Luofu was about to approach, Lin Zhen’s Tyrant Spear suddenly disappeared.
Raising his hand was extraordinarily difficult, but Lin Zhen still persisted in making a move.
He raised his head, two rays of light emanating from his eyes as his body’s electrically charged particles shimmered, shooting out from his eyes! “Ah!” Huo Luofu instinctively felt the glare and raised his hand to shield his eyes.
This small diversion gave Lin Zhen a brief respite. As his palm flipped over, an energy ball erupted and slammed into Huo Luofu.
“Boom!”
The optical and electrical energy exploded on Huo Luofu’s chest. Energy bodies are not affected by Gravity Fields and move quickly. But Huo Luofu didn’t manage to evade.
The explosion set the sunflower swaying slightly, but the result left Lin Zhen aghast.
A High Grade Astral Armor appeared on Huo Luofu’s chest. The optical and electrical energy made him sway a bit, but he still stood firm, his balance undisturbed, without a scratch.
“Kid, you indeed have some abilities. No wonder you could defeat Adolf. But meeting me marks the end of your good luck. This time, you won’t have any opportunity!”
Huo Luofu raised his hand, ready to release the Gravity Field again.
Lin Zhen felt the danger. Before a larger Gravity Field could take effect, he leapt backward onto the seeds at the center of the sunflower.
The seeds’ sharp ends pointing upwards, each of Lin Zhen’s steps landed on a seed. He advanced rapidly and soon reached the center of the sunflower.
This distance was already out of Huo Luofu’s Gravity Field’s range. He couldn’t suppress Lin Zhen’s movement from the edge.
Lin Zhen once again pulled out the Tyrant Spear, pointing it at Huo Luofu,
“Huo Luofu, I’ll wait here. Do you dare to come up and fight me?”
“Damn rat, you think you can get away just like that?”
Hu Luofu seemed very dismissive of Lin Zhen’s actions, striding rapidly onto the sunflower seeds.
As he stepped on them, he instantly felt something was wrong.
The tips of each seed were about a meter apart, a misstep could easily cause him to fall. Battling on such terrain was truly a technical challenge.
After taking a few steps forward, he realized that the gravity field didn’t seem to work so well on this surface.
Reducing gravity won’t work on Lin Zhen. Whenever he enveloped Lin Zhen under his gravity field, the first things to fail would be the sunflower seeds, cracking under the pressure.
Lin Zhen took advantage of these moments to collect three yellow gemstone fragments continuously. This guy was very slick, and never stayed in one place for long. As soon as the gravity hit, he’d dodge using the force of the shattered sunflower seeds. Not only was Lin Zhen not suppressed, several times Huoluo was blocked by his own route.
Hu Luofu simply stopped using the gravity field. Protected by the High-Grade Astral Armor, he wasn’t afraid of Lin Zhen’s attacks and began to pursue him in large strides.
“Lanslow! Block him for me!”
Walking on the sunflower seeds was so difficult that Hu Luofu couldn’t help but call for Lanslow’s help.
Lanslow loudly agreed, entered the central area of the sunflower, and carefully walked on the sunflower seeds, approaching Lin Zhen.
Seeing Lanslow come in, Lin Zhen, who had been playing a guerrilla game with Hu Luofu, finally started to counterattack!
This ground is challenging for Huoluo and Lanslow, but not so for Lin Zhen. To him, it was a standard Plum Blossom Piles exercise.
When he learned spear techniques from Zhang Guanyue, Lin Zhen walked on the Plum Blossom Piles with expertise. His guerrilla battle with Hu Luofu was to draw Lanslow up to the sunflower.
As one of the top three warriors in Sand Russia, it wouldn’t be easy to eliminate him after Lin Zhen had already eliminated Adolf. But on this sunflower, Lanslow had no choice!
“Lanslow, be careful!” Hu Luofu, struggling to walk, saw Lin Zhen suddenly accelerate, running towards Lanslow as if he was running on flat ground and shouted out a warning.
“Relax, I’m about to take him down!” Lanslow didn’t take Lin Zhen too seriously.
The two met and engaged in battle.
The Overlord Spear in Lin Zhen’s hand was like a venomous dragon, launching surprise attacks from various angles, instantly putting Lanslow into a flurry.
It wasn’t that Lanslow was inferior, but that turning to face his enemy was incredibly difficult, not because it was hard to unleash an attack, but because of the difficulty in not falling after turning.
“Clang, clang, clang!”
After three consecutive spears, Lin Zhen jumped twice lightly to Lanslow’s back and stabbed three times continuously from behind!
Lanslow turned around in a panic, and Lin Zhen delivered a mental shock!
Lanslow had a mental defense star artifact, but he inevitably slowed down a bit.
A delay of less than a tenth of a second caused him to misstep.
As his body fell awkwardly, Lanslow tried to maintain his balance. But Lin Zhen did not give him that opportunity and attacked repeatedly with great force!
“Puff, puff, puff!”
Blood spurted into the air, and Lanslow screamed. His body turned into light particles and dissipated, eliminated from the game!
Not far away, Hu Luofu was still struggling to move forward, roaring in anger as he traveled.
Lin Zhen sneered, “You big bear from Siberia, take your time climbing. I’ll collect the gemstone fragments first.”
He took advantage of his speed to circle around, avoiding Huoluo’s gravity field. Moreover, Lin Zhen also had gravitation, so he could strike from over ten meters away. His golden energy broke the sunflower seeds, and the gravitational force attracted the yellow gemstone. In a few moments, he took away all the nearly twenty yellow gemstone fragments from the sunflower seeds.
Although someone was occasionally eliminated on the big screen outside, there was no news about Lin Zhen.
After five minutes, someone else was eliminated, bringing new news. A big battle was taking place on a sunflower in the Sea of Flowers, where Lin Zhen was fighting against Huoluo and Lanslow from Sand Russia. He was observing the battle from a distance when he was ambushed and killed by Chris from the European Union.
No one cared about the fate of this unlucky guy, the important thing was the news he brought – Lin Zhen was fighting.
And he was facing Huoluo and Lanslow, a deadly pair. Lin Zhen was as good as dead!
Lin’s haters began to hope expectantly for the moment when Lin Zhen would be eliminated. In fact, many people had already typed insults on their keyboards, waiting for the moment when Lin Zhen was eliminated to post a lengthy derogatory article to provoke those Hua Xia martial artists.
Time ticked away, and another five minutes passed.
Just as people were getting impatient, the scrolling news finally appeared on the big screen.
“War God Lin Zhen from Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall, Ice City Base City, Hua Xia, has killed War God Lanslow (Hall of Fame) from Leningrad, Sand Russia…..”
