Chapter 581: Chapter 582: Battle of Uranus

Uranus is located on the edge of the Solar System, with the entire planet covered in ice and snow. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Here, the lowest temperature can reach minus 220 degrees Celsius, making it a complete forbidden zone for life.

Even if Martial Artists came here, they would likely be frozen stiff in an instant; thus, formidable firepower is necessary to provide support.

Once Lin Zhen became the Sun Lord, the many planets in the Solar System were developed one by one. The Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth planets have all become habitable, but this place has never been exploited.

The reason is simple. It’s too damn cold!

However, it doesn’t matter much to powerful Martial Artists. As long as their Star Power is abundant, they can withstand the severe cold by releasing it.

Staying on Uranus, Lin Zhen quietly awaited the arrival of Lord Tianfang.

Looking up at the direction of the sun, it was different from Earth. Here, the sun was just a distant bright spot in the sky, not much larger than a star.

“If we were to talk about seasonal changes, it’s now deep autumn on Uranus. It’s not even the coldest time. I wonder how cold it will be in wintertime… I’m afraid survival will be a problem for anyone, especially when their Star Power is insufficient.”

Lin Zhen sensed that the current temperature was minus 150 degrees Celsius.

A vague idea emerged in his mind.

About three hours later, a spaceship approached like a ghost from the depths of space.

The guards, who had already received Lin Zhen’s instructions, promptly reported the information about the spaceship to him.

“Lord, the spaceship you asked us to keep an eye on has arrived. They refused to answer our questions and just barged in. Should we intercept them?”

Lin Zhen shook his head slightly: “No need, as Domain King Strong, you can’t stop them anyway.”

After cutting off communications, Lin Zhen waited until the spaceship passed just outside Uranus’s atmosphere when suddenly, a gravitational explosion occurred!

After the ignition of the Ying Huo star, Lin Zhen could now manipulate the gravity of two stars.

If the gravity of the Dark Star was one, the gravity of Ying Huo would be three. It was difficult to resist such intense gravity.

Lord Tianfang was piloting the spaceship and traveling at sub-light speed when suddenly, a strong force pulled his ship downwards. Harsh alarms sounded instantly!

Tianfang tried to escape from the spaceship, but there wasn’t enough time. The powerful force, like a rubber band, instantly smashed the spaceship harshly into the ground of a distant planet.

At this moment, the ship’s internal control was completely interrupted. Tianfang could only helplessly suspend his body in mid-air, trying his best not to touch anything.

Boom!~

In just two seconds, the spaceship had crashed from space onto the surface of Uranus.

The ground shook, glaciers cracked, and the spaceship plunged straight into the ground tens of meters deep, becoming completely junk.

Just as the spaceship shattered, Lord Tianfang broke out of it!

“Who’s there?!”

Tianfang’s face was full of fear. As a Domain King, there were few who dared to ambush him. Those who dared to ambush him must be strong foes.

Lin Zhen waved his hand and emerged from the heavy snowfall.

“Tianfang, do you know that you’ve intruded a private territory? Shouldn’t you ask for the opinion of the landowner, such as myself, before barging into my domain?”

“Lin Zhen! You’re audacious!”

When he saw it was Lin Zhen, Lord Tianfang’s heart felt relieved.

Even though Lin Zhen was strong and talented, he was incapable of fighting Lord Tianfang. Lin Zhen hadn’t even reached the Star System Stage, while Tianfang was already a Fifth-level Domain King.

Although Lord Tianfang’s strength was not prominent among the Domain Kings and can even be described as average, he didn’t need to worry about facing a Black Hole Period cultivator.

There were some precedents for Black Hole Stages successfully challenging a Star System Stages, but as far as he knew, none had ever successfully challenged a Star Domain Stage.

“You killed my son, Tianci. It’s been a hundred years since I came to take revenge. It’s been cheap enough for you to have a hundred years of extra life. You must have enjoyed everything you wanted to by now, so prepare to accompany my son in death.”

“Tianfang, do you believe I can predict the future?”

“Predict? What can you predict?”

Lin Zhen chuckled, “I figured out that you’ll never have a chance to pass through the Heavenly Gate. Do you believe me?”

“Bullshit!”

Tianfang’s face changed. Passing through the Heavenly Gate was his obsession. Being a Domain King, he had already experienced the charm of wealth and power. How could he give it up? As for the Heavenly Gate, without it, there wouldn’t be longevity. He had to pass through it. He didn’t want to die!

“What can a brat like you predict? People say that those who predict others’ fortunes are unable to predict their own. You’d better figure out when you’ll die instead!”

“I won’t die.”

“Ridiculous! Let me predict your future for you. Tomorrow, it’ll be your anniversary!”

Whoosh~!

His words had barely left his mouth when a breaking sound rang out. Tianfang made his move!

His weapon was a golden longsword. With a slash, the sword light turned into a whip-like form, tearing through the snowstorm on Uranus, and instantly arrived above Lin Zhen’s head!

Clang~!

Armorization and Star Energy Transfer were instantly completed, and Lin Zhen’s Yin-Yang Spear met the attack head-on!

This was not a battle of illusory energy bodies, but a genuine clash of weapons. Lord Tianfang’s longsword struck the spear, causing the entire planet of Uranus to tremble!

With Lin Zhen’s feet as support points, the ground spread out like a spider web, forming a series of cracks extending to the edge of his sight!

The blast wave rolled outward like a nuclear explosion, piling up the surrounding icebergs into massive piles that rolled away like snowballs in the distance.

At the core of the clash between forces, Lin Zhen remained unmoved!

Lord Tianfang’s pupils dilated in this instant. In his view, killing Lin Zhen was just a matter of a single strike, but he never expected their powers to be evenly matched!

Both individuals did almost the same thing, which was to check each other’s star power at that moment.

Lord Tianfang had gone all out with this strike to avenge his son, and Lin Zhen, facing a Domain King for the first time, did the same. Both had not held back, so this showdown had undoubtedly reached the highest star power value.

The result shocked both of them.

Tianfang was astonished, while Lin Zhen was pleasantly surprised.

That’s because both of their star powers were exactly 135,000 and not a single point less!

“Hahaha! Tianfang, I never thought your star power would be the same as mine. Wonderful! I’ve been looking for an evenly matched opponent to fight for years, but I never found one. Today, your arrival is perfect, let’s fight until one of us is dead!”

Lin Zhen’s fighting desire was fully ignited by Lord Tianfang. It was too rare for him to encounter an enemy with the same power level at his current state, let alone an enemy.

Even if Lord Tianfang would not spare him, Lin Zhen would never let him off the hook for sending someone to ambush his family.

With a roar, the spear lunged out like a dragon, spinning!

If Lin Zhen’s spear strike could be played in a thousand-times slow-motion at this moment, a miraculous scene would be visible.

The space rippled like water, slightly undulating at the passing of the spear tip, but space cracks did not appear.

This was the performance that would only happen when speed surpassed sub-light. Once there were no more ripples, it would mean that the object had exceeded the speed of light and would no longer cause a reaction in space.

Tianfang blocked with his blade, and after the clash of the sword and spear, a red dot appeared on his forehead.

It was an injury caused by the spear aura. Lin Zhen’s sub-light speed spear attack combined with time acceleration nearly took Tianfang’s life!

Taking the initiative with one strike, Lin Zhen lowered his body, following up quickly like a wraith. His spear trembled continuously, and a series of spear shadows erupted, covering all the vital spots on Tianfang’s body!

Every attack targeted critical points, and Lin Zhen knew that fighting Lord Tianfang would not be easy, so taking the lead was crucial.

Tianfang was ruthless enough, seeing Lin Zhen’s fierce spear technique, he made a decision right away!

Dodging with his body movement to avoid vital spots, he let Lin Zhen’s spear pierce through his shoulder while swinging a lethal slash at Lin Zhen’s chest!

Lin Zhen easily injured Tianfang. He immediately sensed something amiss, so he withdrew after only piercing through half of Tianfang’s shoulder, simultaneously using time deceleration!

Tianfang’s slash left a string of blood beads across Lin Zhen’s chest – a superficial injury!

After just one exchange, both of them were injured!

However, with their strength, they both had healing methods, and these injuries meant nothing. The two men fought again.

Both of them were at the peak of their star power, making forcefields useless. It came down to actual combat prowess. Lin Zhen had many skills, but Tianfang had even more, even to the point of using time acceleration!

“Tianfang! You damn bastard who set a trap against my family, do you dare to fight with me on this planet to the death today? Whoever runs first will never make progress again!”

Lin Zhen’s eyes were filled with bloodshot veins as he roared at Lord Tianfang.

Lord Tianfang hated Lin Zhen to the bone. Lin Zhen killed Tianci in front of him, which was a thorn in his heart that had to be removed.

Moreover, this youngster’s encounter allowed him to challenge Tianfang even before reaching the Star System Stage. If Lin Zhen were to break through to the Star System Stage, Tianfang would have no way to survive. So to kill Lin Zhen, now was the best opportunity.

“Good, good, good! I, Tianfang, swear upon my Heart of Warrior, only one of us will leave this planet alive today. Victory or death!”

“Splendid! I thought the same thing, whoever runs away is a loser!”

“Bring it on!”

“Come on!”

“Boom!”

Above the Uranus, a scorching, world-shaking battle had begun.

There were no spectators, only two strong men fighting fearlessly. The air currents here rolled and churned, clouds turning around and unable to approach. Snow was fluttering hundreds of kilometers away, unable to enter this Asura Arena.

This battle lasted for an entire month!

During this month, the two men fought in every corner of Uranus.

From the Eastern Hemisphere to the Western Hemisphere, from the Southern Hemisphere to the Northern Hemisphere, sometimes fighting in space, and sometimes going deep into the planet’s core!

Both were fighting with their lives on the line. Lin Zhen had been injured more than 6,000 times during this period, and Lord Tianfang had been injured nearly 6,000 times as well, covering their bodies with wounds.

Both men had exhausted all their trump cards and had a thorough understanding of each other’s abilities.

Since their star power was equal, and their skills were not much different, killing each other wasn’t that simple.

But if one had to be strict about it, Tianfang had a slight advantage. After all, he had lived for more than a thousand years, his battle experience far exceeding Lin Zhen’s.

After a month of fighting, Tianfang believed that if the battle continued for another month, he would be the last one standing.

But a month later, a slight change occurred in the battle.

Lord Tianfang’s blade repelled Lin Zhen’s attack, and he involuntarily shivered.

Raising his head, the wailing cold wind swept by, the chilling currents churned, and the temperature had dropped to minus 200 degrees.

Winter had come to Uranus!

Fighting for such an extended period had caused both of them to deplete more than half of their star power. Their range of output had also shortened considerably, and gradually, it became difficult to withstand the cold wind’s assault.
