Chapter 1067
Chapter 1067: Chapter 1070: Sixth Level of Heavenly Platform_1 Chapter 1067: Chapter 1070: Sixth Level of Heavenly Platform_1 Upon seeing such a mark, Lin Zhen frowned.
After killing a Lower God from the Eight Great Hammers, he knew they wouldn’t let it go, but he didn’t expect them to have such significant influence.
A mere mark had managed to make bank workers believe that his loan was risky, enough to demand early repayment.
This showed the Eight Great Hammers’ status within the Witch Star.
A gang organization possessing this kind of power was indeed astonishing.
Nevertheless, the existing problem still required resolving.
Lin Zhen negotiated with the bank worker, and they reached an agreement.
…
Lin Zhen was to pay back 500,000 immediately, and over the next three years, repay the remaining 500,000.
As of now, Lin Zhen didn’t have much money, only 600,000, and he planned to keep 100,000 as reserve.
Being able to recover 500,000 at once, the bank workers agreed to Lin Zhen’s request.
After having paid back 500,000, with only 100,000 remaining, purchasing items to resist the Heavenly Tribulation was no longer possible.
It seemed he would have to venture into the Earth Core Purgatory again to kill Fierce Beasts for money.
Lin Zhen checked his current situation.
Besides refining the Nine Tribulations Stellar Codex nearly to the peak of the first level, he was also cultivating his Soul Guardian.
Lin Zhen’s Heavenly Platform had already reached the fifth level.
If he advanced one more level and entered the sixth, all four of his dark matter attributes would surpass 200.
His current quantities of the four dark matter types were as follows: 238 gravitons, 225 weak bosons, 214 super quarks, and 200 super electrons.
According to the Soul Guardian, once all his dark matter attributes surpass 200, he could cultivate a second separate identity.
But since Lin Zhen’s total super-electrons were precisely 200, he was uncertain if that count belonged to the “over 200” or “not over 200” category.
He already has a Water Element identity, which used 100 units of super electrons.
If he were to cultivate a second one, he would be left without any super electrons, and he has no idea what that would bring about.
So for now, he dare not cultivate a second identity.
Only after climbing to the sixth level of the Heavenly Platform would he do so.
“If only I could reach the sixth level now.
By thoroughly comprehending another elemental truth, I could create another identity.
Once my Star Power returns, I might even possess strength almost equivalent to a Middle-Level God, no longer fearing the Eight Great Hammers.”
“Moreover, with a second identity, my chances of enduring the Heavenly Tribulation would increase significantly.
With the return of Star Power, I estimate even the first-level Chaos Airflow wouldn’t be a threat.”
Lin Zhen checked his progress on the Heavenly Platform.
He was close to penetrating the sixth level.
With another year or two, he should crack it.
However, there wasn’t any progress in comprehending the truth of elements so far.
It was still undecided between choosing Light, Fire, or Thunder as his focus.
After some contemplation, he halted his step of leaving the tent.
Lin Zhen decided to reach the sixth level of the Heavenly Platform within the next three years, as per the timeline set by the bank.
Deciding to act, Lin Zhen outright remained in his tent, grabbed a quick meal, and once again began his cultivation.
Two years passed in this diligent cultivation.
********
Having waited for three years, Fiery Ancestor, received news that Lin Zhen had finished his cultivation and logged into the Dimensional Universe from the bank.
The Fiery Ancestor immediately informed his immediate superior, Charlie.
Charlie, who was close to reaching the rank of a Two-Star Purgatory Warrior, instantly returned with his team upon receiving the news.
However, after waiting over ten days, Lin Zhen went into cultivation again.
An irritated Charlie said to Fiery Ancestor, “Fiery, remember, you are not alone in the Original World anymore where you were able to move freely.
Now, you belong to the Eight Great Hammers, and all actions should align with the gang’s interests.
The gang members are not obliged to assist in your revenge at any time.”
“If you want to deal with Lin Zhen, please be cautious.
Make sure to open your eyes wide and check your moves thoroughly.
Don’t drag us back at the slightest turbulence.
This is a safe zone.
Even if he comes out and stays within this safety zone, what can we do?
Don’t call me until you are absolutely sure next time.
If you repeat such a mistake, you will have to sort your issues on your own.”
Fiery didn’t dare to retort despite being scolded like a grandson, watching Charlie and the others leave.
Now, he didn’t have any interest in other matters because the Sovereign Weapon was on Lin Zhen, something Fiery yearned for.
At any cost, he wanted the chance to become a sovereign disciple, even if it meant leaving the Eight Great Hammers.
Fiery continued to wait patiently for the day Lin Zhen would come out again.
Time passed, two years later…
*********
“Finally, I did it!”
After two years of intensive cultivation, Lin Zhen had finally reached the sixth level of the Heavenly Platform!
Now, Lin Zhen’s Spiritual Power was equivalent to the limit of a Lower God.
If he advanced one more level, he would reach the level of a Middle-Level God.
His four dark matter attributes had been upgraded once more.
248 gravitons, 235 weak bosons, 224 super quarks, and 210 super electrons!
Now that he had reached this level, Lin Zhen was certain that as long as he comprehends one more elemental truth, he could again cultivate a second element identity.
“Previously, when I entered Earth Core Purgatory, I entered the Thunder Zone.
I should go there again and hope to comprehend something in an area with higher-level Fierce Beasts.”
Although this time he didn’t improve his strength directly, his potential was enhanced.
As long as he succeeds in cultivating the second identity, he is confident to withstand the first Heavenly Tribulation.
He had one more year before the bank’s repayment deadline.
Lin Zhen must repay the loan within a year; otherwise, he would lose his credibility on Witch Star, a rather troublesome consequence.
As he exited his tent, sunshine poured in, and Lin Zhen took a deep breath.
Stretching his limbs, Lin Zhen stepped out.
“Hmm…
is this the campsite of the Eight Great Hammers?”
Lin Zhen noticed that within a radius of tens of meters, only his tent and another one were standing alone.
Upon scanning with his spiritual power, he found somebody in the other tent.
A glint of smile hung at Lin Zhen’s lips.
Paying no attention to it, he strode towards Earth Core Purgatory.
As soon as Lin Zhen stepped out, Fiery Ancestor followed him from the other tent.
This time Fiery Ancestor had become smarter.
He didn’t make any commotion but quietly followed Lin Zhen to Earth Core Purgatory.
Upon reaching the entrance of Earth Core Purgatory, without stopping in the safe zone, Lin Zhen once again headed straight towards the seventeenth entrance.
Fiery Ancestor followed from a distance.
He was carrying a metallic compass that looked like a wristwatch.
This was something he had purchased at a high price of 150,000; a high-level Positioning Compass.
With this compass, he would be able to remotely observe the nearby people or Fierce Beasts, making it possible for him to track Lin Zhen without being noticed.
Indeed, Lin Zhen hadn’t noticed Fiery Ancestor tagging along.
After entering the First-Level Ferocious Beast Zone, he didn’t stay but quickly traversed along the mountain wall.
