Chapter 157 (Two years later)
After listening to Zhang Sicheng's introduction, Lin Zhen finally got a basic understanding of the situation here.
Lin Zhen still knows about the compression of Dantian Qi, but he did not have this opportunity in his previous life. The warriors who can compress Dantian Qi are all elites and geniuses, and he is not qualified.
There are three major areas in the Star Fruit Tree, the sky is the strongest, the beehive is second, and the ant cave is the worst.
Lin Zhen wanted to go to the sky to save Su Mingyue, but it was not possible yet. He still needs time to practice and settle down.
Without asking Zhang Sicheng what he had, Lin Zhen let him go.
But shortly after Lin Zhen came back, when he saw Brother Guang go out, Lin Zhen knew that Zhang Sicheng was probably finished.
After a while, Brother Guang came back. He looked at Lin Zhen and did not speak on his own initiative. Lin Zhen did not talk to him. The two of them were strangers.
It occupied the third place in the central group, and the next day was the day to pick it up. This time, Lin Zhen, Jiang Huai and Lou Qingfeng went to the ant hole together. It turned out that the harvest was huge. The comet crystal alone brought more than 20 satellite crystals, five or six satellite crystals, and three planet crystals.
It was distributed to Ma Mingxing and Sun Tie, and the remaining comet crystals were absorbed by Lin Zhen, and their strength increased a lot again.
Jianghuai and Lou Qingfeng are also making progress. Jianghuai is a level 9 general, but it has not reached its peak yet. It cannot compress the Dantian Qi for the time being and is not suitable for absorbing star crystals.
After that, everything gradually calmed down.
People would not mention Su Mingyue in front of Lin Zhen. Lin Zhen seemed to have forgotten this person and devoted himself to cultivation.
A week later, someone challenged Lin Zhen’s team and failed.
Three weeks later, Lin Zhen advanced to the mid-stage of Level 5 Generals, challenging the group ranked second in the Central Branch, and also failed.
Three months later, Lin Zhen advanced to the level 6 general and successfully challenged the second-ranked group, with two days of picking time a week.
Generally speaking, it will be almost the same for a warrior to pick the star crystals one day, because absorbing the star crystals is similar to eating. You cannot eat too much at a time, and it always takes time to digest it.
But this kind of thing is not a problem for Lin Zhen. There are dark stars in his dantian, which can absorb and accommodate more dantian energy and can even be stored in the dark stars, so he absorbs star crystals and is simply life-threatening.
Among the few people, although Lin Zhen had the lowest realm, his progress was also the fastest. He surpassed Sun Tie in three months.
There was another third-ranked group challenging Lin Zhen and the others, but without exception, they all failed because not only Lin Zhen was improving, but Jianghuai reached the peak of level 9, and Lou Qingfeng also advanced to the peak of level 8.
By six months, Lin Zhen successfully broke through the boundary of the sixth-level general and advanced to the seventh-level general. He was already on par with Ma Mingxing in realm.
After advancing, Lin Zhen chose to challenge the team that ranked first, but failed.
After the failure, Lin Zhen was not depressed at all. Before Friday and Saturday, Lin Zhen almost fought in the ant hole. The central branch is indeed unique here, and the number of star crystals obtained is quite rare, but Lin Zhen only needs satellite crystals at present, which is enough.
Occasionally, a star crystal can be obtained in the team, which is absorbed by Jianghuai, so that he can compress the Dantian Qi earlier.
A year later, Lin Zhen was almost 18 years old and he finally advanced to level 8 on this day of the New Year.
At this time, Ma Mingxing also reached level 8, Sun Tie had just advanced to level 7, Jianghuai alone captured all the star crystals in the team, and the Dantian Qi finally completed a layer of compression.
Lou Qingfeng also advanced to level 9 at this time, and all of them began to need planetary crystals.
This time, Lin Zhen once again proposed to challenge the team ranked first. This time, Lin Zhen used his courage and used all his methods in the battle. Among them, the mental impact knocked down the opponent's number one master, which made people also feel afraid of Lin Zhen.
In the team, Lin Zhen, Jiang Huai and Lou Qingfeng are all spiritual masters, but Lin Zhen’s realm is already the highest, and he actually reached the peak of the golden in one year!
Taking the first place in the central branch, Lin Zhen's team is already the most powerful team among the ant holes, and has four days a week to pick star crystals. At this time, Lin Zhen's dark star power began to highlight, and he could absorb star crystals almost every day, and his realm improvement speed began to far exceed that of others.
In a year and a half, Lin Zhen advanced to the ninth level general, almost the same as Lou Qingfeng.
When it was almost two years ago, Lin Zhen reached the peak of the ninth-level general, and had reached the verge of compressing the Dantian Qi, which was exactly the same as Lou Qingfeng.
At this time, Jianghuai also compressed twice the Dantian Qi, Ma Mingxing's peak at level 8 and Sun Tie's eighth level.
During this period, they often saw the golden light in Lin Zhen's eyes fading. When they glanced at it, their souls would tremble uncontrollably, making people afraid to look at it.
At this time, even in the central area of the ant hole, there were not many star crystals to be picked. The progress of several people slowed down, but compared to other teams, they were still fast, and Jianghuai and Lou Qingfeng were quite satisfied.
It has made such progress in two years, and they don’t ask for too much.
In the past two years, two new groups of students have entered the Star Fruit Tree and began to explore this mysterious world.
For them, Lin Zhen and others are powerful and mysterious seniors. They can occupy the first place in the central branch. What strength should they have?
This day has come again for a challenge.
Sun Tie stretched out: "Oh! Life is so boring. No one comes to challenge us at all. With you three here, Ma Mingxing and I have become idle people."
Lin Zhen absorbed a planetary crystal and opened his eyes: "You just need to practice more every day. At the beginning, your realm was ahead of me, but now I am left behind. Why don't you work hard when you have boring time?"
Lou Qingfeng next to him glanced at Lin Zhen, trembled and said, "Lin Zhen, are you practicing some evil skills? Why do I feel like I want to pee at the first glance?"
Lin Zhen laughed silently: "Is it like I want to pee?"
"Lou Qingfeng is right. Although I have compressed twice the Dantian Qi, I still dare not look at your eyes. Your eyes are sometimes too scary." Jiang Huai also agreed with Lou Qingfeng's opinion.
Ma Mingxing even exaggerated: "Lin Zhen, you practice all day now, and you don't know how famous you are now. Those new students take a detour when they see you and call you the big devil behind their backs. Can't you be a little human? It's so boring to practice all day, it's useless to lose your handsome face."
Lin Zhen said: "That's because you are not working hard."
Ma Mingxing immediately interfered, "We can't compare with you. You are a lunatic. You are so fast that you practice. You are not twenty years old yet. You are now at the peak of level nine. It's probably enough for you to advance to the God of War. But you can't do that. You have to compress the dantian energy, so you have a long life in the Star Fruit Tree. You should be even more bored than us."
"It seems like you are a little older than me." Lin Zhen smiled.
"It's not that big. I'm twenty-two years old this year, Sun Tie is twenty-two. Although the boss of Jianghuai is twenty-one, he is not a few days apart. He is two years older than you, and that guy Lou Qingfeng is already twenty-five, so he's the youngest."
"You can't stay there if you are only in your twenties. In the long years from now on, won't you die of boredom?"
Ma Mingxing yawned: "You can't say that. This is the star fruit tree. I thought it was fresh when I first came. But after a long time, there are only leaves and branches here, and there are also insects. I finally waited for a group of new students, but even women were rarely seen."
Sun Tie Interview: "Didn't there be two women here in this class? There were two in the previous class."
"Don't mention those dinosaurs. If someone could grow up to half as beautiful as Su Saint Su, I wouldn't be so bored."
"Haha! Saint Su is the only beauty in the world. If you look for her according to her standards, you may be bored to death."
"You two have said enough, shut up!" Jiang Huai scolded him, and Ma Mingxing and Sun Tie immediately realized that they had lost their words.
Looking at Lin Zhen again, I saw Lin Zhen close his eyes and slowly open it.
"I'm bored, too, so I'm looking for something to do." Lin Zhen clapped his hands and stood up.
"Why are you doing?" several people asked Lin Zhen.
"I'm leaving the ant hole, are you leaving?" Lin Zhen asked.
"Leave? Why do you have to leave? Isn't this place very good?" asked Ma Mingxing.
Hearing Lin Zhen's words, Jiang Huai and Lou Qingfeng's eyes lit up: "It's okay to leave, we really need a new environment. Lin Zhen, where are you going, we'll go with you."
Lin Zhen thought for a moment: "I want to go to the hive, but before I go, I have to do one more thing. You don't have to follow me. After a week, we will go to the hive to gather."
Jianghuai and Lou Qingfeng both nodded. The number of star crystals here is too small, and the special star crystals cannot be found at all. The conditions in the honeycomb are better and should be gone.
Ma Mingxing and Sun Tie were a little hesitant. Their strength was not strong and they were quite satisfied with the comfortable environment here. Going to the honeycomb means new competition, and they were a little worried.
Lin Zhen comforted them and said, "You don't have to follow me, just stay here. I promise you will often have star crystals to use."
Sun Tie shook his head: "Brother Guang won't agree, he has the final say here."
Ma Mingxing also said: "Yes, Lin Zhen, even if you are the number one in the central group now, Brother Guang will not give you this face to support us both for nothing, so you can leave with confidence. We are not rookies now, and we can still be self-reliant."
"Yes, we are not wasteful anymore. Ma Mingxing is almost level 9, and I am level 8. Even if I don't become the first, occupying the third in a group is enough for us to practice."
Unexpectedly, Lin Zhen shook his head: "No, he will give you this face, this is what I want to do."
As he said that, Lin Zhen did not let anyone follow him, and told Jiang Huai and Lou Qingfeng to go to the beehive to find him in a week, and then left alone.
Chapter completed!
