Age of Evolution#-Chapter 522 - 523: Returning to the Suspended Island
Chapter 522: Chapter 523: Returning to the Suspended Island
Lin Zhen thought of a place, and that was the Suspended Island.
Within the entire Chaotic Star River, there was no safer place than that, for a simple reason – it was the most dangerous place, where most people couldn’t reach.
Dense asteroid belts and space storms could stop almost everyone, but Lin Zhen still had hope to make it through.
Because he had learned Planetary Instantaneous Movement!
He had crossed that asteroid belt before, with a width of about 120,000 kilometers, slightly nearer than the Earth to the Moon.
Lin Zhen’s current Planetary Instantaneous Movement distance was about 100,500 kilometers. He discovered that the distance entirely depended on how much Star Power he had. With his current 1,050 points of Star Power, the distance was about 100,500 kilometers.
“I still need 150 more points of Star Power to pass through the space storm in one go. My current Star Power level is not enough, and my realm has reached the peak of the Constant Star Stage. If I want to increase my Star Power, I have to rely on the Dark Star.”
Lin Zhen was currently in the peak realm of the Constant Star Stage, but there was still a slight gap to the Black Hole Realm, and he didn’t dare to rashly advance to the Black Hole Realm.
He always felt that the Black Hole was crucial for him. If he didn’t make full preparations, rushing into it could lead to disastrous consequences.
The Black Hole of his previous life put a lot of psychological pressure on Lin Zhen, so he wasn’t afraid, but he would only try to break through after full preparation, and his current strength was insufficient.
Aboard the spaceship, Lin Zhen started to focus all his attention on the Dark Star.
Currently, the Dark Star was in the early stage of the Mesozoic Era. At this stage, it was not easy for the Dark Star to grow rapidly.
The power of the Heart of Star Plants had gradually been digested, and if the Dark Star wanted to advance further, it had to absorb enough nutrients to make its vitality even more prosperous.
Lin Zhen had already found a source of nutrients – the 100,000 Insect Clan members devoured by his avatar transformed into the Fire Kirin during the Innate Devouring process!
If these Insect Clan members were slowly digested by Lin Zhen’s avatar, the avatar’s Star Power might reach 1,500, but that would be useless, as he still needed to enter the Suspended Island with his main body.
Lin Zhen had always been thinking about the Spiritual Power Heaven Stele and Time Heaven Stele on the Suspended Island. Since he decided to hide inside the island, he had to enter with his main body to comprehend them.
So, these 100,000 Insect Clan warriors could only serve as fertilizer for the Dark Star.
It had to be said, the vitality of these Insect Clan members was incredibly strong. Once they were buried deep in the soil of the Dark Star, their flesh and blood power began to be absorbed by the plants of the Dark Star.
The land started to become fertile, the number of microorganisms in the rivers increased, water plants swayed in the water, and Lin Zhen even saw small trilobites appearing.
Lin Zhen slowly cultivated on the spaceship, keeping the spaceship circling the Insect Clan while waiting for the growth of the Dark Star.
His Star Power increased day by day. In the beginning, he could gain about one point of Star Power per day, but in the later stage, as the nutrients began to evaporate, he could increase two or three points per day. freewёbnoνel.com
Two months passed!
Under the nourishment of 100,000 Insect Clan members, the Dark Star advanced from the early stage of the Mesozoic Era to the mid-stage before the nutrients were fully consumed!
This small improvement in realm had given Lin Zhen 100 points of Star Power. With the increase over these two months, his Star Power reached 1,280 points!
“It’s enough now!”
Lin Zhen was overjoyed when he tested his Star Power.
With this Star Power, he could traverse the asteroid belt of the Suspended Island!
He had had enough of nearly four months of interstellar exile, and he couldn’t wait to give it a try.
“Master, there is a broken asteroid ahead. You can let your avatar leave here and fly to that asteroid to hide. Then continue to attract the Insect Clan army with your main body, and after the storm has calmed down, the avatar can go to the Light Tunnel and find an opportunity to leave.”
“Alright, let’s do it.”
The cabin of the small spaceship opened, and Lin Zhen’s avatar left the spaceship, entering the starry sky and quickly flying to the asteroid.
Then, Lin Zhen intentionally did not enter the sub-light speed state for a certain distance, attracting the Insect Clan spaceship to chase after him, and then accelerated away, heading straight for the Suspended Island.
His avatar was crouching in a valley on the asteroid, watching the massive Insect Clan centipede warship fly by in the distant sky with its teeth bared and claws dancing, unnoticed by anyone.
Not until the starry sky was completely calm did the avatar follow the original route back to the Light Tunnel.
Having been away from the Suspended Island for nearly half a year, it had become a forbidden area.
The howling space storm and asteroid belts prevented anyone from approaching the Suspended Island, and even spaceships dared not pass through here for fear of being caught in the chaos and becoming fertilizer in space.
The Mantis Commander stood in front of the control console on the spaceship, his face filled with murderous aura as he stared at the radar screen.
“Great! This Lin Zhen must be dizzy. He actually ran to the Suspended Island. Our pursuit seems to have worked. This guy must be running out of Energy Blocks and rushed here in desperation. There is an asteroid belt blocking his way ahead, and we might be able to catch him.”
As he spoke, there were still traces of burns on his body, which were from Feng Qingluan’s final attack. They hadn’t healed yet, which showed the power of the Phoenix’s true essence flame.
Groups of Star System Stage Insect Clans around them were also rubbing their hands together, eager for action. The long pursuit was torture not just for the fleeing person, but also for the pursuers.
They all hoped to end this situation as soon as possible, kill Lin Zhen, and return to their good lives.
It was unknown to them why the supreme Mantis Commander had such great resentment towards Lin Zhen. They only knew that during the last great battle, the Insect Clan had suffered losses, with the loss of six commanders who were all elite figures within the Insect Clan.
In this Star Domain Stage area, which was almost unreachable within the Chaotic Star River, the Insect Clan commanders were the strongest!
“Commander, look, his spaceship has stopped!”
As the radar screen showed Lin Zhen’s ship had stopped, the Mantis Commander was overjoyed: “Quick! He must be out of energy, hurry up and catch up!”
The Centipede Warship accelerated, rapidly approaching the Suspended Island.
“Lin Zhen has been spotted, and his power fluctuation has been detected. His Star Power index is… nearly 1,300!”
The Mantis Commander frowned slightly, wondering how this guy was still at the peak of the Constant Star Stage and how his strength increased so quickly. He absolutely must not let this kid live any longer; otherwise, he would sooner or later seek revenge for his little girlfriend. He would settle this matter today.
Seeing the Insect Clan’s Centipede Warship arriving in the distance, Lin Zhen didn’t look at it but turned and faced the Suspended Island.
“Chris, calculate the distance!”
“Master, the straight-line distance from here to the Suspended Island is 119,500 kilometers, and the internal diameter of the island is about 1,000 kilometers. If you use Planetary Instantaneous Movement at your current level, you may end up in the space storm on the island’s surface. So, be cautious about where you land and not use too much force.”
“Don’t worry, if I were stupid enough to rush over, I might as well die.”
Lin Zhen glanced back at the rapidly approaching Insect Clan Warship, then gestured a middle finger towards it.
“Fuck! This kid is cursing at you, Commander!”
“This ignorant fool! I’ll cut off that finger of yours and eat it like candy!”
The Insect Clans all cursed, but the Mantis Commander felt something was wrong. Why was Lin Zhen so calm?
“Prepare the Energy Cannon to fire. I want to see what tricks this kid is playing.”
The Mantis Commander ordered, and a ball of energy shot out from the Centipede’s mouth.
But as the energy ball approached, Lin Zhen suddenly disappeared!
Instantaneous Movement!
“Ah! He escaped with Instantaneous Movement. That kid is such an idiot. Where can he go within this vast starry space using Instantaneous Movement?”
“Quickly use the radar to search; he must be nearby!”
The radar wave covered the area, but found nothing within 1,000 kilometers, 10,000 kilometers, or 50,000 kilometers!
“Expand the range to 100,000 kilometers!”
The Mantis Commander was furious and yelled. They expanded the radar range to 100,000 kilometers, but within that range, there was not a single life form.

Watching the prey slip through their fingers, the Mantis Commander was furious. He quickly logged into the Dimensional Universe: “Tianci, locate Lin Zhen’s position right now!”
After a while, Tianci responded: “I have locked onto Lin Zhen’s position. He’s on… he’s on the Suspended Island across from you.”
“What? You’re saying he entered the Suspended Island? How did he pass through the asteroid belt?”
The Mantis Commander was dumbfounded, unable to figure out the reason.
“I can’t give you an answer to that. You’re at the scene, so you should know more than me.”
“Spatial Secret Skill! It must be the Spatial Secret Skill! That kid must have mastered the ability he learned on the Suspended Island. I can’t believe he dared to go back there.”
The Mantis Commander was trembling slightly, feeling bitter that their long pursuit had resulted in this. Lin Zhen actually entered the Suspended Island.
Even if his strength were stronger, he wouldn’t be able to pass through that asteroid field. He could only stare helplessly at the island.
However, he did not want to waste all of their hard work. So, he issued a bold order.
“Bring the remaining Insect Clan Nests to this location and breed warriors here in this starry space. Have the newly born warriors surround the Suspended Island. If Lin Zhen doesn’t come out for a day, we’ll siege him for a day. If he doesn’t come out for a year, we’ll siege him for a year. If he doesn’t come out for a hundred years, we’ll siege him for a hundred years. I refuse to believe he can stay here forever!”
Now that he was the only commander of the Insect Clan in the Chaotic Star River, all of the Insect Clans reported directly to him, so his word was law.
Thus, the massive migration of the Insect Clan began, with the remaining four Nests starting to relocate, all near the Suspended Island, belonging to the An family.
All the Insect Clans gathered here, above and below ground, covering a full 360 degrees with no dead angles, completely besieging the Suspended Island.
The Mantis Commander himself set up camp here, determined to wear Lin Zhen down to the end!
