Chapter 179 - 179: 179: Lightning Photon, Regaining Freedom! (6 more updates)

“What should I do? What can I do? Am I really going to be trapped here till I

After some futile efforts, Lin Zhen’s dantian energy had been significantly depleted, forcing him to sit down and rest, allowing his dantian energy to recover a little.

As he was recuperating, he suddenly noticed the Dark Star inside his dantian.

The Dark Star still floated there, as if it didn’t exist, merging with the dantian.

The Dark Star was now providing Lin Zhen with gravitational force, but this wasn’t its most important function. Its true power would only be demonstrated when Lin Zhen reached the Star Realm.

At this moment, wisps of electric current surged on the Dark Star. It was originally condensed from a Thunder Core, imbued with the power of thunder and lightning. Now that it had been supplemented with the power of heavenly lightning, the current on its surface had become even stronger, as if brewing a Lightning Storm.

“Lightning! ”

A flash of insight struck Lin Zhen. When he entered the spatial crack, it was lightning that had split it open, proving that the instantaneous force of lightning was enough to break through space.

Of course, it could also be that the spatial crack had been opened multiple times and was no longer as stable as before, but Lin Zhen saw a glimmer of hope.

“I can now use Lightning Ions anytime, but ultimately, Lightning Ions represent the speed of lightning. The true destructive power of lightning comes from photons. I can only resonate with the ions, but I haven’t been able to resonate with the photons.”

“If ions and photons were combined, it would almost be equivalent to emitting real lightning, at least with much greater power.”

I never thought about absorbing Lightning Photons immediately before, but now that I’m at the end of my rope, why don’t I give it a try?”

With this thought, Lin Zhen made up his mind, sat cross-legged, and let his dantian energy slowly circulate, causing the Dark Star to rotate as well.

The ions dispersed throughout his body’s meridians and bones were also mobilized, resonating with the lightning power between them and the Dark Star.

Soon, Lin Zhen entered a mysterious state.

His Spiritual Power entered the interior of the Dark Star, where he could clearly see the world within the Dark Star.

This world was composed of energy bodies, dark matter, Lightning Ions, Lightning Photons, Lightning Atoms, and some freezing air.

Lin Zhen knew that the freezing air was formed when he absorbed too much stormy snow energy in Zhao Dong and was now deeply ingrained within the Dark Star.

When Lin Zhen’s Lightning Ions entered, they could only resonate with the ions inside the Dark Star, while the larger Lightning Photons and the small golden dots of Lightning Atoms remained completely unmoved.

“These things have not resonated with me yet. The Lightning Atom represents the fundamental force of lightning, and I currently lack the ability to affect it. I need to progress gradually and try to resonate with the Lightning Photons first.”

With a single thought, Lin Zhen’s spiritual power covered a Lightning Photon.

That Lightning Photon was like a slippery eel. Just as Lin Zhen’s spiritual power was about to cover it, it suddenly slid to one side, its speed incredibly fast.

“You little thing. You actually know how to dodge! I don’t believe I can’t catch you.”

Amused, Lin Zhen’s spiritual power formed an invisible net and lunged at the Lightning Photon once more.

However, just as he was about to seize it, the Lightning Photon miraculously evaded him again, as if a high-speed bullet could change its course mid-flight, not allowing Lin Zhen to touch it at all.

Lin Zhen refused to give up, repeatedly trying and failing. After more than a dozen attempts, he finally dejectedly realized that the Lightning Photons were part of the lightning and trying to catch it through speed alone was impossible.

It could easily seize and evade any small opening.

“It seems this method won’t work. I need to try something else.”

“Covering them with a net of spiritual power is useless; there can’t be any gaps.

The only method I have left is the soul-binding technique: Soul Lock!”

“Soul Lock is intangible and can restrain the soul. A soul is formless, but spiritual power can still affect the Lightning Photons and capture them with spiritual power. So why not try a Soul Lock?”

When Lin Zhen thought of this, he quietly executed the Soul Lock.

Soul Lock uses spiritual power to form a constraint, tightly binding a person’s sea of consciousness. Martial Artists believe that a person’s soul exists in their brain, so as long as their consciousness is constrained, their soul cannot escape.

As a matter of fact, Soul Lock should also be effective for Lightning Photons since it’s a form of spiritual power usage.

Indeed, the Photon didn’t detect the approaching Soul Lock and began to struggle violently when it was executed but couldn’t move at all!

“Haha! Great! It works! As long as I can restrain you, I can make you resonate with me. Being able to resonate with a single Lightning Photon means that the other photons will automatically resonate, and everything will fall into place.”

Lin Zhen’s spiritual power began to envelop the Lightning Photon, tightly wrapping it up without any gaps this time.

With the Soul Lock removed, the Photon lost its means of escape and could only be enveloped by Lin Zhen.

However, Lin Zhen did not expect that resonating with the Lightning Photon would be such a lengthy process. His spiritual power met strong resistance as it injected, resulting in a prolonged tug-of-war that lasted an entire day.

Fortunately, this Photon was completely separated from the others and could not move or receive reinforcements. In the end, it was successfully resonated with by Lin Zhen.

One day later, the Lightning Photon finally stopped resisting.

Lin Zhen could even feel the slight joy radiating from the photon, just as the Lightning Ions within him, it had become a part of him.

“Come out, little darlings, and join your comrades!”

As Lin Zhen gave the command, the Lightning Photon within the Dark Star displayed an explosive tendency, fiercely gushing out, like a continuous burst of fireworks.

Countless Lightning Photons wandered around every corner of Lin Zhen’s body, and their power was once again infused into him, merging with the Lightning Ions.

The mingling of Photons and Ions already formed the rudimentary shape of lightning, but still lacking the basic atoms, Lin Zhen couldn’t summon the Heaven’s Thunder at will. However, he could unleash both Photons and Ions simultaneously through his weapon, although not as mighty as the Thunder, it was still very powerful.

Another day passed, and Lin Zhen’s body was finally strengthened by the Photons.

He opened his eyes and clenched his fist.

“Phew! Such an incredible power! I originally thought that the Nine Layers Compression Dantian Qi was already enough, and there wouldn’t be much improvement before reaching the tenfold compression. But after obtaining these Lightning Photons, my power has surged again as if from a geyser! My pure strength is already enough to crush ordinary Primary War Gods and even weak Intermediate War Gods!”

With a clenched fist, tiny explosions like bursting beans emerged from Lin Zhen’s palm, emitting golden electric arcs— the power of lightning!

Slowly standing up, Lin Zhen first walked a circle in this extradimensional space, then approached the little tree.

“Perhaps I’ll be leaving soon. I want to thank you for surviving in the shattered space and nurturing many Star Crystals and a Space-time Wandering Flower, allowing me to find a glimmer of hope in a difficult situation.”

Gently stroking the tree trunk, Lin Zhen raised his finger, releasing a golden ray about an inch long, and gently engraved a few words on the tree.

“Lin Zhen’s Little Tree.”

“If one day the situation here changes, I hope you’ll return to your original space and the world that you belonged to, no longer having to dwell in a foreign land.”

After accomplishing all this, Lin Zhen walked down the hill.

He arrived in front of the space rift and picked up the shield marking it.

“If I can escape, it will be used as my flying vehicle. If I can’t leave, there’s no use in keeping it. I might never be able to leave.”

With that said, Lin Zhen took out the silver spear again.

He circulated his Qi, infusing it with golden energy, enveloping the silver spear in a golden hue, making it look like it was made of gold.

Then, Lin Zhen cycled his Dantian Qi again, gathering the ninefold compression energy.

Stronger and stronger, his Qi grew until it reached its limit!

“I’ve never felt so powerful, but this alone is not enough to break open the space rift.”

“Come out, my Lightning!”

The Dark Star within his body rapidly spun, countless Lightning Ions and Photons infused into Lin Zhen, enveloping him in numerous flashes of electric light, silver snakes danced around the surface of his body.

With his foot on the shield, Lin Zhen’s psychic power propelled him into a high-speed flight around the extradimensional space.

Faster and faster, by the time Lin Zhen charged towards the space rift, his body had already reached its maximum speed.

Stretching a long string of afterimages in the air, Lin Zhen aimed the silver spear in his hand, golden currents flowed fiercely!

“Shatter! Break through the space barrier that blocks me and let me return to the outside world!”

“Ha! Open!”

The spear thrust forward, using the simplest spearmanship, Valentine’s piercing attack.

Yet, this simple move executed by Lin Zhen was brimming with murderous intent!

“Zzzzzz!”

An intense collision occurred at a single point in the space rift!

The tip of the spear struck that point, and countless electric snakes spiraled, resembling a spinning golden windmill.

The Dantian Qi surged out relentlessly, the speed of the Lightning Ions and the power of the Lightning Photons combined, allowing Lin Zhen to launch an unparalleled fierce attack!

It felt as if something shattered at that moment.

A tiny glimmer of light, a ray symbolizing hope and freedom, streamed in from the tiny hole. The Star Fruit Tree outside opened its doors to Lin Zhen once again after three months!

“Everyone outside, Lin Zhen is coming back!”

His figure flickered, and with psychokinesis teleportation, Lin Zhen vanished from the extradimensional space!
