Chapter 456

As he moved across the plain, Lin Zhen realized that it was basically deserted.

There were only a handful of solitary martial artists scattered around. Lacking the strength to compete in the Six Dao Reincarnations, they could only hunt for Cosmic Crystals in the outside world.

Lin Zhen did not linger in the wasteland, he continued to the entrance of the Six Dao Reincarnations.

The Six Dao Reincarnations were six immensely sprawling and colossal paths.

Danger lurked in this vast, infinite chasm akin to a desert canyon.

The six paths were respectively: the Heavenly Path, Human Path, Asura Path, Animal Path, Hell Path, and Hungry Ghost Path.

The types of ghosts in each path were different. Lin Zhen noticed there were still many martial artists congregating here when he arrived.

The most eye-catching amongst them was a group wearing the uniforms of the Dimensional Universe Company. They had set up a stall and were openly buying Cosmic Crystals.

No one dared to mess with the people from the Dimensional Universe Company. Known as the largest conglomerate in the universe, the Dimensional Universe Company had an unfathomable background. It was rumoured that they had amassed two-thirds of the entire universe’s wealth, an immeasurable amount.

Without a large number of super-expert backers, the Dimensional Universe Company would not have survived to this day.

And it required a large number of Cosmic Crystals to keep the Dimensional Universe Company operational.

They purchased Cosmic Crystals here, and could procure whatever you wished. Such was the power and confidence of the Dimensional Universe Company.

Lin Zhen arrived at the stall and read the openly displayed buy-back information.

One Cosmic Crystal for a hundred thousand Kirin Coins, paid in cash!

If you didn’t want money, they could provide whatever you needed right away.

Even if they didn’t have it, they could acquire it through other means, as long as you gave them some time.

Seeing Lin Zhen coming over, an employee from the Dimensional Universe Company said: “Young man, do you have Cosmic Crystals to exchange? As long as you have enough, we can get you anything you want.”

Lin Zhen smiled and said, “What if I want the legacy of Yan Jun, the World King? Can you get that?”

Although it started as a joke, the employee took it seriously. “You’re not the first person to ask for this. Over three thousand people have asked the same question before you, but I will still give you a serious answer.”

“Oh! Let’s hear it.”

“The legacy of Yan Jun, the World King is not a single part. Your questions suggest you want to be sure of what you need to ensure you’re not wasting my time. Once you state what you want, we can discuss the price.”

Hearing this, Lin Zhen’s face grew serious. Could the Dimensional Universe Company truly be so powerful as to know everything?

Just a few days ago, he learned that the legacy of Yan Jun, the World King, was divided into seven parts. He got the cover of the golden book, but there were still six golden pages inside. Could they know about this too?

Lin Zhen was skeptical yet felt compelled to ask, “I need the first page of Yan Jun, the World King’s golden booklet.”

The employee took a note seriously, then told Lin Zhen, “Please wait, we will verify your information.”

He picked up a communicator and began speaking to his superiors in a place Lin Zhen could not see.

About ten minutes later, the employee came back and took Lin Zhen to a room they had prepared. He solemnly told Lin Zhen, “The information you provided is true. We can find where the first golden page is. However, you need to pay a sufficient deposit of Cosmic Crystals, and then we can help you find it.”

“How much do I need?” Lin Zhen’s eyes sparkled.

The first three pages of the golden paper recorded Spirit Wicked Shock, which was what Lin Zhen longed for most. The indispensable part was undoubtedly the first page. He was determined to get it.

“For this golden page, you need a total of twenty million Cosmic Crystals. If you can pay half of it as a deposit, we promise to find it within three days. Then when you pay the remaining half to us, the transaction can be completed.”

“Ten million…”

Lin Zhen hesitated for a moment. Ten million Cosmic Crystals was a large sum, equivalent to a trillion Kirin Coins!

If this was when he just got the World Stone, he could manage to pay, but now he only had a hundred billion in hand.

The number was ten times short!

Lin Zhen asked, “Can I ask where the most Cosmic Crystals in the World Stone are?”

“This question costs one hundred Cosmic Crystals.”

Lin Zhen immediately took out the slightly over one hundred Cosmic Crystals he had, showing no hesitation.

“The place with the most Cosmic Crystals is the Earth Palace Temple, but you have to go through Six Dao Reincarnations to get there. And with your current strength, it’s basically suicidal. Even if you survive, your life would be hanging by a thread. It’s quicker to search within the Six Dao Reincarnation.”

Lin Zhen was taken aback for a moment when he realized he had asked a foolish question.

What he required were the Cosmic Crystals from the Six Dao Reincarnations, his actual question was which path within the Six Dao Reincarnations had the most Cosmic Crystals, but he had ended up asking which place within the World Stone had the most.

“Oh, what I meant to ask was, which path within the Six Dao Reincarnations has the most Cosmic Crystals?”

The staff member laughed, “To answer that question will require a hundred cosmic crystals.”

Lin Zhen felt his pocket, finding only fifty-one cosmic crystals. He was immediately hesitant.

Did he need to go back into the wilderness to find more cosmic crystals and then return? That would be too troublesome.

Seeing Lin Zhen’s indecision, the staff thought for a moment, “How about this? You give me fifty cosmic crystals, and I’ll give you a half-price answer.”

Lin Zhen had no other choice at this point, so he handed over the fifty cosmic crystals, leaving him with only one remaining.

“The most dangerous areas have the most cosmic crystals. All you need to do is find the most dangerous area among the six paths of reincarnation.”

Lin Zhen wanted to ask which one was the most dangerous, but he held his tongue. Never mind, this Dimensional Universe Company was like a vampire, charging for every little question.

A hundred cosmic crystals might not seem like a lot, but when converted to Kirin Coins, it is ten million.

Converted into Sanjiang currency, it’s ten billion. With such expensive questions, Lin Zhen could not afford to inquire further.

After saying goodbye to the staff, Lin Zhen left the room and once again arrived at the entrance to the six paths of reincarnation.

There were six teleportation arrays at the entrance, which were free to enter, but if you wanted to come back out, you needed cosmic crystals to activate it.

A hundred cosmic crystals each time!

“What a place that’s not playable without money! I wonder who will benefit from these activation cosmic crystals in the end? This teleportation array should have been set up by Yama World King, but he’s dead. So what happens to those cosmic crystals?”

Lin Zhen had no answer to this question, but he had to pick a destination.

It wasn’t easy choosing the most difficult among these six paths of reincarnation.

He had hoped to ask someone, but there were no martial artists coming out for a long time.

Finally, the teleportation array for the Hungry Ghost Path flashed, and an independent martial artist emerged.

Lin Zhen immediately approached him, “Hello, do you know which of these six paths is the hardest and most dangerous?”

The freelance martial artist immediately responded, “Do you even need to ask? The Hungry Ghost Path I went on is the most dangerous. Several of my brothers died inside. After much hardship, I managed to obtain a batch of cosmic crystals and am on my way to get my rewards.”

Having said that, the martial artist left in a hurry to go to the stall of the Dimensional Universe Company. Lin Zhen had no clue what he was going to exchange for.

Lin Zhen was unsure whether to believe his words. Shortly afterward, another martial artist emerged from the Animal Path.

Lin Zhen asked him the same question, only to receive the same answer – he believed the Animal Path was the most dangerous.

The so-called Animal Path was where all kinds of beasts and demons ended up after death, really dangerous according to him.

Having asked two people and received two different answers, Lin Zhen lost hope in finding a definitive answer.

No one had conquered all six paths of reincarnation. Whoever he asked wouldn’t be able to provide a standard answer. He would have to figure it out himself.

“Heavenly Path… this should be the highest level, definitely difficult.”

“Human Path… It’s hard to say about this one. There’s a saying ‘man can conquer nature’, human potential is also infinite, perhaps Human Path is super hard as well.”

“Asura Path… Asura means demon, in some worlds, the existence of Asura is for the purpose of combatting god. This surely is difficult.”

“Animal Path, Hungry Ghost Path, Hell Path, these three are hard to rank. Hell Path seems a bit more difficult, but Hell’s brutality seems to top even the Heavenly Path.”

After some thought, Lin Zhen finally approached the Asura Path.

“Asura is a bred race for battle. Here, there must be endless battles, and it must be the most dangerous area. I will venture into the Asura Path and hope to gain something.”

Lin Zhen had made up his mind. If he couldn’t find information on the golden paper for now, then he would focus on finding more cosmic crystals here. As long as he collected enough crystals, he could get the golden paper through the Dimensional Universe Company.

He wasn’t worried about the Dimensional Universe Company playing tricks. For a company considered the best across the universe, a single World King’s treasure wouldn’t mean much. They wouldn’t tarnish their name for it.

Having chosen the Asura Path, Lin Zhen stepped onto the teleportation array.

The light in front of him flickered, the teleportation array activated, and Lin Zhen disappeared.

The next moment, he appeared within a vast canyon.

Before he could take a good look at the canyon, figures flashed in front of him. He was surrounded!

“Heh! This hasn’t been easy. We didn’t expect people to still come here after such a long time. We didn’t wait in vain.”

“Boy, we are from the Earth Core Jade Tower! Give us the cosmic crystals you have obediently, or else…”

A sinister man made a throat-slitting gesture at Lin Zhen.

Upon seeing these gangsters, Lin Zhen realized why so many people entered yet so few came out. The entrances were all blocked off!
