Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

Chapter 271 Immortal Altar

Core members can easily enter the three major planes: the Bridge to Heaven, the Altar of Immortality, and the Sea of ​​Illusions.

The Immortal Altar Plane.

Before Jiang Chen lay a vast, black mountain range that stretched as far as the eye could see, with peaks upon peaks, each topped with a golden altar.

At a glance, thousands upon thousands of golden altars dot the mountain peaks, drawing the eye.

brush!

A black-haired youth appeared at the foot of one of the golden altar steps.

"Hmm?" Jiang Chen felt uncomfortable all over as soon as he appeared in the Immortal Altar plane space.

"It's a strange feeling; I can't sense the fluctuations of the universe's origin, nor can I sense any external energy."

"The primal energy within my body is completely gone, and my mental power is extremely scarce, barely enough to sustain a sliver of consciousness."

Having lost its primal energy, mental power, and the ability to sense the fluctuations of laws, all energy is now restricted.

Here, all that everyone can use is their physical strength.

This place is purely for testing physical energy.

Jiang Chen looked up. There were 99 steps in total, with the top platform representing the 100th step.

"Only when the body exerts 100 units of force can it be considered that the body can be perfectly controlled."

Stepping up the stairs, we soon arrived at the altar.

On the altar of the Immortal, there is a human-shaped target. Next to the target is a screen with text on it, which translates to: "Please strike the target with your fist, elbow, head, knee, and foot within one second. Your strength will be calculated based on the lowest of these five strikes."

Five hits in one second.

Unlike on Earth, where you can test your strength by throwing a punch and hitting a target, this place tests the power of your entire body, so you can't be lazy.

First, there is a time limit: you must perform five attacks within one second, including attacks on five body parts such as fists and elbows.

"I've been cultivating secret techniques that allow me to exert power since I was at the Hengxing level. Although I valued the understanding of laws in Chaos City, it should have improved a bit by now. Let's give it a try."

Jiang Chen twisted his neck, swung his fists a couple of times, loosened his muscles and bones a little, and tried to get into the swing of things.

Snapped!

boom!

"Alright, come on!"

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up, and he instantly launched an attack on the humanoid target in front of him.

In an instant, Jiang Chen's entire body was like a bent bow, and his right fist slammed into the head of the human-shaped target like an arrow released from a bow. The first attack!

Then, he spun around again, concentrating his strength into a single point, and delivered a powerful kick to the chest of the humanoid target, causing it to cave in. This was his second attack!

As soon as he landed, he suddenly leaped forward, his knees slamming upwards, unleashing the full force of his body to strike the human-shaped target's abdomen. This was his third attack!

Then, he bent down slightly, his body like a cheetah about to pounce on its prey, then suddenly bent down, then sprang up, his forehead slamming hard into the chest of the human-shaped target—the fourth attack!

Finally, he leaped up again, his right elbow abruptly bending, his muscles bulging like an engine starting up. Then, bursts of power were instantly transmitted to his right arm, accompanied by a fierce elbow strike.

The fifth attack is complete.

One second, five hits, done.

"How is it?" Jiang Chen looked at the screen next to him.

The screen displays the data: "51 units, 58 units, 66 units, 69 units, 55 units. The score is '51 units,' earning 1000 points."

"Hmm? Only 51 units of power?" Jiang Chen frowned.

Back on Earth, the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade at its highest level was only 7 times the power, while the World-Destroying Spear Technique hadn't even reached 7 times the power.

However, Jiang Chen's current level is completely different. He can easily create thousands of secret techniques that are far superior to those like the "Ninefold Thunder Blade" and "World Destruction".

"Oh right, I almost forgot. I'll write up some secret techniques later and put them on Earth, where people can exchange them for contribution points. That way, our fellow Earthlings will have a good starting point and lay a foundation for their future."

This idea suddenly popped into Jiang Chen's mind; he simply hadn't had the time before.

During my time in Chaos City, I spent thirty years laying a solid foundation, during which I had little interaction with my family.

There is no room for waste, so where would we find the time to waste writing up secret techniques?

Although I can also write many secret techniques that are much better than "Ninefold Thunder Blade" and "World Destruction", it still takes a lot of time.

Things are different now. We have much more time, so when we have time we can write some secret techniques, and once we've written a lot, we can send them back to our hometown.

"I'm overthinking it again. I should try this more now. I shouldn't be this weak!"

"However, this altar of immortality has very demanding requirements."

Jiang Chen tried it once and understood why this requirement was made.

Only when all parts of the body can be attacked to a value of 100 units in a short period of time can one truly have perfect control over their body.

"Again!"

Five consecutive impacts, and five more results: "65 units, 60 units, 66 units, 59 units."

65 units, score '59 units', earn 1000 points.

"Again!"

The score is 58 units.

"Again."

The score is 60 units.

"Again!"

The score is 62 units.

After countless attempts, Luo Feng's best score was 62 units, his worst was only 51 units, and his highest score was 2000.

You can earn points at the Sky Bridge, the Illusionary Sea, and the Immortal Altar.

The Sky Bridge awards points based on the number of levels: 100 points for the first level, 200 points for the second level, 400 points for the third level, and so on, with each subsequent level awarding double the points of the previous one.

There are islands in the Illusionary Sea. From the outermost islands, we fly deeper and deeper into the Illusionary Sea, entering one island after another.

The scoring system in the Mirage Sea is somewhat similar to that of the Sky Bridge.

There are 21 islands in the Mirage Sea, from the outside in.

The first island is worth 100 points, the second island is worth 200 points, the third island is worth 400 points, and so on. The deepest part of the Illusionary Sea is the 21st island.

The Illusionary Sea and the Bridge to Heaven are places where immortal powerhouses and even Venerables venture, resulting in extremely high scores.

However, the Altar of Immortality is different.

Perfect control over one's own power is one of the prerequisites for becoming immortal. Basically, even in the outside world, the peak powerhouses of the realm lords can perfectly control the exertion of their body's power, let alone in the virtual universe company.

Therefore, the Immortal Altar has the lowest score among the three.

Exert 50 units of force to gain 1000 points.

Exert 60 units of force to gain 2000 points.

Exert 70 units of force to gain 4000 points.

Exert 80 units of force to gain 8000 points.

Exert 90 units of force to gain 16000 points.

Exert 100 units of force to gain 5 points.

(Any score below 50 units will be 0 points)

"Exerting more than 50 points earns 1000 points, exceeding 60 points earns 2000 points, and um---3000 points."

It wasn't a complete waste of time, was it?

"I need to find a secret method that emphasizes the application of force to continue training."

Exerting your strength is one of the hurdles to achieving immortality, and you cannot be careless.
