Chapter 344: 344: Hundred-fold Gravity
Translator: 549690339
With ten times the gravity pressing down on Lin Zhen’s body, he still tried his best to keep his back straight. If he couldn’t even withstand ten times the gravity, there was no point in participating in this special training.
He picked up the rope gun in his hand and thought, the Unbreakable Mind opens!
Similar to being immovable like a mountain, Unbreakable Mind is also about mental training. While being immovable like a mountain is about seeing oneself as a mountain peak, able to withstand powerful attacks in the mind.
Unbreakable Mind, on the other hand, is about having a great offensive mindset that can break through anything in front of it.
With a fierce stab of the rope gun, it hit a wooden board squarely!
“Plink!”
The rope gun sank five centimeters into the wood.
“Sure enough, the ten times gravity has an effect. I have to endure a great pressure, and even my movements have distorted.”
“Exactly because of this, only if I could successfully use Unbreakable Mind under pressure, once the gravity is lifted, I might actually make another breakthrough and reach the stage of Minor Success.”
Harboring such thoughts, Lin Zhen put everything aside and began to attack the wooden board one shot after another.
About twenty or so minutes passed, almost half an hour, and he could finally withstand the ten times gravity, stabbing the rope gun to a depth of ten centimeters.
However, soon after, the gravity increased to eleven times, and his depth of penetration decreased again.
“I’m glad I have experience in practicing gravity. Adapting gradually is the way to go. If you increase the gravity too much at once, it will crush you. Now I need to adapt to eleven times gravity.”
The training continued, and when Lin Zhen pierced the first wooden board into a sieve, he began attacking the second one.
Whenever his physical strength was about to be exhausted, Lin Zhen would take some high protein food and high vitamin drinks to replenish his strength quickly.
He knew that he couldn’t rest at this time. Only by exercising when he was the most exhausted could he achieve the best results.
Only when he could no longer hold on, being pressed down by the gravity, would Lin Zhen lie down for a minute or two and then immediately stand up.
If he didn’t get up, the gravity would only get stronger, and he wouldn’t be able to get up later.
Time gradually passed, and Lin Zhen’s gravity increased from ten times to twenty times, then from twenty times to thirty times, and when he reached fifty times, twenty hours had already passed.
When the fifty times gravity pressed down, it became extremely difficult for Lin Zhen to even thrust the rope gun.
His legs were trembling non-stop, and his body felt as if it was carrying a huge mountain, even the simple action of raising his arm became incredibly difficult.
“I can’t give up; the more difficult it gets, the more I have to persevere.”
His clothes were soaked with sweat. Lin Zhen staggered to the wooden board and, with strong willpower, raised his hand and stabbed.
He still had two or three hours left. He had to make a breakthrough within this time. However, he didn’t feel optimistic. Up until now, he hadn’t felt any hint of a breakthrough, and he might fail this time.
Shu Mingxuan’s aircraft landed outside Langfang City. He entered the city in just a few teleportations and went straight to Lin Zhen’s hotel.Rêađ lat𝒆st ch𝒂/p/ters on n𝒐/v/𝒆/l(b)i𝒏(.)c/𝒐/m
The receptionist looked at the man with long hair and wearing an odd uniform but still greeted him with a sweet smile, “Hi, sir, do you need a room?”
Shu Mingxuan expressionlessly walked up to the receptionist. “Which room is Chen Fan in?”
The receptionist hesitated for a moment, “I’m sorry, we have to keep our guest’s information confidential… Ah!”
Shu Mingxuan had already teleported into the reception area, stunned the receptionist with a chop, and directly checked Chen Fan’s information on their computer.
“Room 309.”
Next moment, Shu Mingxuan appeared on the third floor and kicked open the door to room 309.
The room was empty except for the usual hotel items.
Shu Mingxuan immediately flew out of the window, and in twenty seconds, he arrived at the gym.
Zhang Ye was giving a lecture when suddenly another person appeared in the room.
Zhang Ye wanted to scold him, but Shu Mingxuan’s terrifying aura emanated from him, his eyes staring intently at Zhang Ye. “Where is Chen Fan?”
Zhang Ye immediately knew this man was a martial artist, and a terrifying one at that.
Since he already knew Lin Zhen’s identity, Zhang Ye couldn’t reveal it. Faced with Shu Mingxuan’s powerful mental aura, he struggled to hold on. “Chen Fan left a long time ago.”
Shu Mingxuan scanned the gym with his spiritual power. Seeing that Lin Zhen was indeed not there, he instantly vanished from the spot.
His figure flickered, moving hundreds of meters at a time, like a ghost. In no time, he arrived at the virtual training facility.
There were no ordinary people in the virtual facility. Everyone was a martial artist. As soon as Shu Mingxuan appeared, a martial artist approached him. “Hello, sir, would you like the virtual space or the gravity space?”
“Where is Chen Fan?” Shu Mingxuan’s eyes had a hint of blue, not the sea blue of Westerners, but a rich deep blue unique to the people of Tianhe Empire.
The staff member hesitated for a moment, “Sir, it’s the rule here…”
“Speak, or die!” Shu Mingxuan was getting impatient since he couldn’t find Lin Zhen.
The staff member’s face changed. “Sir, we belong to Gale. Although your strength is impressive, but…”
A War God Period staff member fell silently, his body dropping limply to the ground, life taken by Shu Mingxuan’s mental shock.
Shu Mingxuan’s continuous mental shock attacks killed all the martial artists in the room, and he went to the computer to look for information about Chen Fan.
He quickly found it, instantly teleporting to the virtual room.
“No one’s here?”
Shu Mingxuan looked around and then appeared outside the gravity chamber next door, where the guard was stationed.
Shu Mingxuan approached him: “You have three seconds to tell me whether Chen Fan is cultivating here. If you dare to lie, death awaits you.”
Shu Mingxuan directly restrained the war general martial artist with his spiritual power, giving him no chance to resist.
The terrified war general hurriedly nodded, “Yes, Chen Fan is here.”
Shu Mingxuan released him and pointed at the gravity chamber before asking, “You’re saying he’s inside?”
“That’s right.”
“Open the gravity chamber and bring him out for me.”
The guard quickly said, “Senior, I can’t do that. The chamber’s timer was set in advance, and it can’t be opened until the time is up.”
“How much longer until he comes out?”
The guard checked and replied, “He set the timer for 24 hours, and it’s been 22 hours and 40 minutes, so he’ll be out in 80 minutes.”
Shu Mingxuan looked at the network and realized that it was now the second day of the Northwest Battle Situation. The Star Realm experts from the Northwest had voluntarily left the city to fight the ascetic monks, putting them in a critical situation.
According to the current situation, Hua Xia’s martial artists would be annihilated within the next three hours.
Lin Zhen must have entered the gravity chamber to cultivate, and although Shu Mingxuan didn’t know what he was cultivating, he instinctively felt that Lin Zhen’s success could not be allowed to happen.
Once Lin Zhen succeeded, it was highly possible he would disrupt the Northwest Battle Situation.
Whether it was the hatred towards Lin Zhen in his heart or the general situation, Shu Mingxuan couldn’t allow Lin Zhen to succeed.
“Is it possible to break this gravity chamber? I have to break it now. I can’t wait for him to complete his cultivation.”
The guard shook his head, “That’s impossible. Even an average Comet Stage martial artist can’t open it. Don’t waste your energy.”
“You underestimate me; I’m a Comet Stage martial artist.”
Shu Mingxuan’s Star Power surged, and a huge comet with a long, bright tail appeared, leaving the guard dumbfounded.
This was the first time he’d encountered a Comet Stage expert. Where did this guy come from? Was he from the Heavenly Ranking?
Shu Mingxuan took out a sword and fiercely swung it at the gravity chamber!
Under the enhancement of the Star Power, strands of Sword Light formed a ribbon-like Sword Qi, heavily striking the chamber door.
“Boom!”
The gravity chamber only shook slightly, Shu Mingxuan’s Sword Qi left a minor indentation on the alloy wall, but it didn’t break the chamber.
“Damn it! I can’t believe it actually resisted my Comet Stage attack.”
Shu Mingxuan’s face was a bit ugly, and his gaze fell on the trembling guard.
“The gravity chamber…”
Shu Mingxuan muttered and then suddenly remembered something: “How much gravity did Chen Fan set inside?”
“Senior, he… he set it at a maximum of 50 times gravity.”
The guard didn’t dare to confront Shu Mingxuan and truthfully told him about Lin Zhen’s gravity settings.
“Oh! You said that you couldn’t sense any Dantian Qi from Chen Fan at all?”
“Yes, he’s just a Level Nine Warrior.”
Shu Mingxuan slowly rubbed his chin, “Could it be that his Dantian Qi hasn’t recovered yet, and he came to the gravity chamber to train in relation to that?”
“If that’s the case, I absolutely cannot let him succeed. This Lin Zhen has some tricks up his sleeve. Fifty times gravity must be his limit, and it’s hard to say what kind of breakthrough he could make under this pressure.”
“I must stop him no matter what.”
Shu Mingxuan strode to the control panel and said to the guard, “You will now increase the gravity to 100 times immediately!”
The guard was frightened and waved his hands, “Senior, suddenly increasing the gravity to 100 times could kill someone!”
“Don’t waste any more time; if he doesn’t die, you will. Adjust it to 100 times immediately. Even if he calls for help from inside, do not open the chamber. He wants to cultivate using gravity, right? Then let him cultivate to his heart’s content!”
The guard was still trembling and didn’t dare to move forward. Shu Mingxuan’s gaze turned cold, and he killed the guard with a mental shock.
Although it was his first time operating the control panel, adjusting the gravity to 100 times wasn’t difficult to find, and he figured it out soon.
Grasping the lever, Shu Mingxuan sneered, “Farewell, Lin Zhen. This time, you’ll die without knowing how.”
He pushed the lever to the top, and 100 times gravity crashed down inside the gravity chamber!
