"If I could live my life again, there'd be nobody in this world who could stop me." Although Lin Zhen was a Star Realm Warrior, he had led a stifled and frustrated life. Starting from the Earth era, up until humans migrated beyond the Solar System, he never made a name for himself. In his lifetime, countless grudges went unavenged, and countless desires were left unfulfilled. As he approached death, he summarized his life's experiences, thinking that if he could start again, he would use his foresight to reach the peak of his life. Holding on to this fantasy, he closed his eyes. Then, a cosmic black hole appeared. Time and space collapsed, and when he opened his eyes again, he had returned to Earth during the great catastrophe... PS: Readers can join the group "613961070."

Chapter 4 Spiritual Power Awakening

Lin Zhen's eyes lit up instantly, and in that moment, a flood of memories washed over him.

No one initially knew if the deal had actually gone through. Most people assumed that the poster had taken the item down after taking a screenshot, a process that could be completed in under a minute.

For a forum post to become successful, there would have to be a delay between the time a screenshot was taken and when it was posted, as per the hard rules of the internet. This delay lasted a minute, and only after this period could the item be taken down. Within that minute, it was impossible to do so.

The post had just been made and Lin Zhen saw it only seven seconds in. Others might struggle to find the stall because the person who posted it used a pseudonym.

Lin Zhen's online name was his real name because he had not changed it. In addition to using your real name, you also had the option of using a pseudonym.

People often posted under a pseudonym and ran their stalls under their real name, a common trick that made it hard for others to quickly locate your stall.

Lin Zhen later found out that Ouyang Yu's pseudonym was "Meteor shower," but he never associated it with this incident.

In retrospect, it wasn't surprising at all that Ouyang Yu would do something like this.

Ouyang Yu went to great lengths to pursue An Ning. He strutted around like a peacock, showing off his muscles, flaunting his family's wealth and power, all in hopes of winning An Ning's favor.

In his past life, Lin Zhen had failed to win An Ning over, but so had Ouyang Yu. An Ning didn't even see Ouyang Yu; he was just a fool persistent from start to finish.

While Ouyang Yu was good at showing off, he was not an idiot. At this moment, Lin Zhen was sure that Ouyang Yu would remove the item from the stall soon. Even the name "Meteor shower" might have been created at the last minute to prevent anyone from buying the potion within this one-minute period.

Without any hesitation, Lin Zhen immediately opened the campus communication group and located Ouyang Yu's avatar.

Clicking the avatar instantly showed the location of his stall, which was tucked away in a hidden corner of the marketplace.

But for Lin Zhen, who knew the location, this posed no difficulty. Three seconds later, he found Ouyang Yu's stall.

He clicked, opened it, and the items on the shelf appeared.

Among a row of useless potions, there was a bottle of Spiritual Power Potion, priced at a hundred dollars. It was placed alongside the other bottles and was not easy to spot unless one was really looking for it.

Purchase.

Instant purchase!

The buyer requested for a web-inspector to collect the item on their behalf!

Online shopping was protected. Even Martial Artists could not violate this rule. Once purchased, the purchase was final. The codes for the potion were automatically recorded. Once the buyer paid the fee, they could ask a web-inspector to collect the item. The web-inspector would arrive at the specified location within three minutes and deliver it to the buyer within ten minutes. This service, of course, came with a fee.

Web inspectors were part of a global organization, an independent body jointly organized by Base City, the military, and the top world-ranking martial academies. It was incredibly powerful, and assured that neither the buyer nor the seller could default on payments, ensuring that your interests were protected.

After all that, Lin Zhen checked the time. It had only taken him thirty seconds!

"Snap!"

Lin Zhen snapped his fingers. Perfect!

He had originally intended to deal with Ouyang Yu anyway, but he didn't expect fate to be so accommodating by providing him with such a great opportunity. This made Lin Zhen feel very satisfied.

Serve you right for showing off!

While five million was not a particularly large amount, Ouyang Yu's family were government officials, not businessmen, and five million was not a small sum. This would certainly give him a headache.

However, Lin Zhen was extra cautious. He gave himself another pseudonym, "Galaxy," and then displayed it as his pseudonym. In this way, Ouyang Yu wouldn't know who bought his Spiritual Potion.

The web inspector who delivered the goods arrived quickly. Eight minutes later, there was a knock at Lin Zhen's door and he went to receive the goods.

His parents looked at it but didn't ask much. In their eyes, Lin Zhen, who was about to graduate from high school and had good grades, was the true head of the family and the future of it. They, on the other hand, were simply living in their son's shadow.

Lin Zhen brought the item back to his room. It was a simple small box containing a ten-centimeter glass bottle.

The unopened glass bottle was vacuum-sealed, with tamper-proof coded seals.

"Spiritual Power Potion, an essential item for the awakening of a Spiritual Mind Master. It is extracted from the genetic refinement of various Mutated Beasts that excel in mental control. The price of this bottle is currently five million, but to my knowledge, it's bound to increase. In a fortnight, it will be seven million."

"Awakening Spiritual Power not only significantly enhances neural responsiveness, but also slightly increases strength and speed. This is the quickest way to elevate your abilities before the graduation exam."

The process of enhancing spiritual power took some time. Before he started, Lin Zhen made sure to inform his parents that he would need two days to cultivate in his room during this period, asking them not to worry.

After his parents agreed, Lin Zhen had a good sleep, ate a hearty breakfast the next morning, and felt better than he had in a long time. Only then did he pick up the Spiritual Power Potion and gulp it down.

A chill ran down his belly, quickly turning into a heat that surged through his limbs and shot straight up into Lin Zhen's mind!

Lin Zhen had experienced the increase in spiritual power before and was no stranger to this sensation. He just gritted his teeth and tolerated the piercing pain that felt like a needle prick.

The Spiritual Power Potion was also a type of Genetic Potion, a product of high tech. Its aim was to continuously stimulate a person's brain, awakening the hidden spiritual power. For those with higher talent, the process could be completed in a few hours.

Those with lower talent might take three to five days to fully awaken.

In his previous life, Lin Zhen spent a full 48 hours to awaken, indicating average talent.

However, this time, during the awakening process, Lin Zhen found that his spiritual power seemed to have increased a bit compared to his previous life, probably because of something related to his soul's rebirth.

Within his mind, a cluster of energy appeared, consisting of a blue color interwoven with strands of silver. Lin Zhen knew that this was his spiritual power.

The strength of spiritual power was divided into several stages. The initial stage was blue, classified as Bronze Level spiritual power. With continued cultivation, it would evolve to the Silver Level, then the Gold Level, the Dark Gold Level, and finally the Diamond Level.

Lin Zhen did not know what lay beyond the Diamond Level. In his previous life, the highest he had seen was the Diamond Level spiritual power.

In his previous life, he had only reached the high Silver Level spiritual power. When he awakened, he was at the low Bronze Level.

But in this life, at his awakening, he already possessed high Bronze Level spiritual power and was starting to transition towards the Silver Level. This was undeniably a significant improvement. He could be called a genius Spiritual Mind Master now.

"I have high Bronze Level spiritual power, even showing signs of Silverization! Given such a high starting point, I'm sure I'll become a powerful Spiritual Mind Master in this life!"

When his spiritual power was completely awakened, and the effects of the medicine completely disappeared, Lin Zhen opened his eyes.

If someone were facing Lin Zhen at this moment, they would find his eyes exceptionally bright, bright enough to hurt their eyes and impossible to look at directly!
