Age of Evolution# Chapter 242 – Promotion, Level 7 War God!

Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Promotion, Level 7 War God!

Fire Burning Mountain is located between Crane Lake Volcano and Ruyi Lake Volcano, at a distance of nearly ten kilometers.

Thick smoke and fierce flames form a natural barrier around it, while poisonous mist from White Dragon Lake acts as a blockade. Basically, it is impossible for people to come here.

It is unknown what kind of tonic Fire Burning Mountain has consumed, but for countless years, it has been continuously erupting. It is as if lava from the Earth’s core is constantly surging upwards without an end.

It can be said that the formation of the Five Connected Pools Ancient God Ruins can be largely credited to Fire Burning Mountain.

Looking from afar, the sky is filled with thick smoke, and streaks of lightning occasionally flash across. Fiery light and lava, accompanied by heavy volcanic ash, seem like a giant natural chimney, spewing trash into the sky.

Lin Zhen took a few steps upward and then slowly stopped.

“In my previous life, all the special meteorites within the Five Connected Pools were obtained by extraterrestrial civilizations, making the place famous. However, there is a legend about Fire Burning Mountain.”

“The reason why Fire Burning Mountain keeps erupting, forming the Ancient God Ruins, is that during the arrival of the Leonid meteor shower, a meteorite had penetrated the Earth’s crust, causing magma to surge upwards, thus creating an almost incessant volcano.”

“But later, I studied and found that no meteorite could penetrate the Earth’s crust. The long-lasting volcanic eruption must have another reason.”

Memories floated through Lin Zhen’s mind. When the extraterrestrial civilization almost ruled the world, an unusual change occurred in Fire Burning Mountain.

An unknown creature charged out from the mountain, and despite Earth being under the blockage of extraterrestrial civilization, it rushed towards space. Along the way, its fierce fire destroyed two starship battleships, causing significant losses to the extraterrestrial civilization.

After destroying the starships, the creature left. It was not from Earth and had no intention of resisting invasion.

Later on, people finally reached a consensus: there was a Galaxy Beast within Fire Burning Mountain!

Galaxy Beasts are creatures that lived in the cosmic starry sky. Once they grow up, their potential is almost limitless.

Upon birth, Galaxy Beasts have Star Realm-level power. As they grow, they can even reach the Comet Stage during their youth.

Once they enter their growth phase, their strength will advance rapidly. Just entering their growth phase, they already have Satellite Stage strength, and at the peak of the growth phase, they possess Constant Star Stage strength.

Upon maturity, they can even achieve Star Domain Stage strength, which is a supreme gift.

At first, Lin Zhen did not include the Galaxy Beast in his plans, as it was still too powerful for him to face even if it was only recently born.

However, since he was here, Lin Zhen wanted to have a look and see what the legendary Galaxy Beast looked like. After all, no one had actually seen the real face of the Galaxy Beast inside Fire Burning Mountain.

But upon reaching the foot of Fire Burning Mountain, Lin Zhen did not rashly go up. Instead, he stayed at the foot of the mountain, deciding to practice here first.

As for the Galaxy Beast, it was too distant a goal. Only strength was the key.

Lin Zhen stayed at the foot of the mountain and took out Crystals from his Space Ring.

He had collected many Crystals, so advancing to the Sixth-level Peak was not a problem; it just required some time.

First, he settled in a secluded spot, and then Lin Zhen began to recover his Spiritual Power. His Spiritual Power had suffered some losses while passing through the poisonous mist and needed some time to recover.

The Lightning Wings flapped on his back again, and the power of Lightning Ions continued to nourish them. This object needed to rely on constant nourishment to advance. For now, it was only at twice the speed of sound and still far from reaching the second stage.

In the following days, Lin Zhen was completely immersed in his training. When tired, he would lie down for a rest or meditate.

When hungry, Lin Zhen’s Space Ring contained crabs, and he would eat some crab meat to satiate himself.

There were many molten rocks around Fire Burning Mountain, and many stones were still hot. Lin Zhen used gravity to grab one, and the crab meat was easily cooked. Once the shell was removed, the taste was not bad.

Days went by like this, and Lin Zhen had been staying in the Five Connected Pools for two and a half months already.

By now, it had been almost four years since Lin Zhen’s rebirth, and another winter was approaching.

Outside, the world was changing. Since the secret of Poison Insect Crystals was exposed, many War Gods had made significant progress.

Especially the participants of the War God’s Knockout, these people were the best among the War Gods, and they were advancing rapidly at this time.

Bogba from the African Union, who was originally an Eighth-level War God, had advanced to a Level 9 War God. Together with another African Union War God, they jointly killed an S-level Mutated Lion that had attacked Cape Town Base City.

When they brought back the three heads of the Mutated Lion, the African Union was shocked.

Another War God claimed that he had contributed little; most of the credit went to Bogba. This made people believe that Bogba was getting closer to Huo

Luofu’s level and might even win the championship in the War God’s Knockout.

Later, it was revealed that Sang Ji, a War God from Rio de Janeiro Base City in Brazil, had single-handedly killed an S-level Forest Serpent in the rainforest, which was even more shocking.

He had single-handedly killed an S-level Mutated Beast and was now comparable to Huo Luofu.

Then news followed one after another. From India District, Omar and Shah joined forces and killed an S-level Mutated Beast in the suburbs of Mumbai!

U.S. War God Duke heads into the wilderness, slaying the S-level Mutated Beast American Lion, aiming for the War God’s Knockout Championship!

Hua Xia Martial Artists Tang Wenbo and Feng Ni each kill the S-level Mutated Beasts Huanan Tiger and Northwest Wolf King, becoming rising stars in Hua Xia.

Then came the news that European Union War God Ai Er had killed the S-level Mutated Beast Brown Bear.

Just when people were becoming numb to slaying S-level Mutated Beasts, the news of European Union War God Chris killing the S-level Mutated Beast Great White Shark in the Mediterranean sent shockwaves through the world.

The Great White Shark is not an ordinary S-level Mutated Beast; it has incredible power in the ocean, which is unmatched by any land-based S-level Mutated Beast. Chris instantly became a top contender for the championship.

People were even more amazed by her talent, considering she was only twenty years old.

Just when many people thought Huo Luofu had no chance of winning the championship, he shared a photo from the North Pole Area.

Under the arctic sky, three S-level Mutated Beast corpses lay at his feet: a mutated polar bear, a tiger shark, and a walrus.

Huo Luofu also said, ‘You guys are just playing with leftovers. I’m now on the verge of entering the Star Realm, and the championship is mine. No one can take it away.”

Huo Luofu’s advancement to the Star Realm caused a sensation, as the War God knockout didn’t allow those in the Star Realm to participate, right?

When people questioned this, the World War God Alliance gave a reply.

While those in the Star Realm indeed cannot participate in the War God knockout during registration, breakthroughs made during the knockout are allowed, and they can’t disqualify a War God just because they’ve made a breakthrough.

At present, the World War God Alliance only has three countries: the European Union, Sand Russia, and the United States, so whatever they say goes.

Later, more news came out that people like Duke from the United States and Ai Er from the European Union had also advanced to the Star Realm. It was evident that the decision came from negotiations among the three parties, and everyone else had no choice but to accept it.

Among the contestants, Su Mingyue, the Saintess of the Divine Sect, and Lin Zhen were probably the most low-key.

Su Mingyue disappeared for more than two months, only appearing when there was just one week left until the start of the War God Knockout. No one knew where she went, but they could only see her becoming increasingly indifferent and pure, gracefully compelling, yet no one knew her strength, nor witnessed her in action.

The only exception was Lin Zhen, who had been stuck in the Five Connected Pools for two months due to Yue Zhenhua’s blockade. There has been no news about him, as if he had evaporated from the face of the Earth.

Many War Gods here at the Five Connected Pools were not only gathering crystals but also paying close attention to Yue Zhenhua’s situation.

Yue Zhenhua, with Ma Yao and Wei Li, was blocking the edge of the poisonous mist of White Dragon Lake. During this time, his realm had reached the edge of breakthrough, feeling as if he could enter the Star Domain at any moment. However, he couldn’t break through, and the frustration in his chest made him extremely uncomfortable. Only by eliminating Lin Zhen could his troubled mind be eased.

As they ate, drank, and cultivated, they waited impatiently for Lin Zhen to appear, like eager beavers.

Not only them, but many people were also paying attention to Lin Zhen’s fate, wondering if the genius had a chance to participate in the War God Knockout.

At Lin Zhen’s home, his father Lin Liye and mother Li Qin had already reached the Fifth Level as Warriors. However, they had also lost the desire to cultivate in these past few days, waiting for news about their son.

At the bottom of Fire Burning Mountain, an object covered in thick dust, no longer resembling a human, moved slightly.

“Crack! ”

A piece of dust fell off.

As more and more dust fell, Lin Zhen shook his head and staggered to his feet.

“Whew! This place is really dirty. If you don’t move for a day, your whole body is covered in dust. Compared to this, the Star Fruit Tree is heavenly.”

Lin Zhen clenched his fist, and the Lightning Wings behind him flapped twice, dispersing the dust.

“What a thrill! After two months of hard cultivation, I not only broke through to the Sixth-Level War God but also, after using up all the Dark Energy Stones I collected, unexpectedly reached the middle stage of the Seventh-Level War God!”

“I am now an Advanced War God!”

With a flap of the Lightning Wings, Lin Zhen soared into the air. At this moment, his Spiritual Power had also improved. He was previously in the Dark Gold Late Stage, but now he was close to the Peak of Dark Gold.

Moreover, the Lightning Wings also received an upgrade, now reaching a speed of three times the speed of sound. He could fly 1020 meters per second, which is basically one kilometer per second.

“Yue Zhenhua, if you dare to chase me again, I guarantee you won’t even see my taillights. But I believe you won’t have any chance to chase me. I am no longer afraid of you.”

Flying at high speed in the air for two laps, Lin Zhen looked left and right.

With one week left before the War God Knockout began, he had several choices:

try to challenge the Poisonous Scorpion in Crane Lake, confront Yue Zhenhua, or visit the never-before-seen Galaxy Beast in Fire Burning Mountain.

After some thought, Lin Zhen turned left, wanting to see what the Galaxy Beast really looked like first..
