Chapter 147 New Year's Eve (fourth update)

Lin Zhen also raised his glass and clinked it with Su Mingyue: "I am also very happy to have a friend like Su Shengnu."

Lin Zhen drank the red wine in one gulp, Su Mingyue took a sip, and then they both quickly started eating the delicious barbecue.

Lin Zhen ate like a whirlwind, while Su Mingyue ate in small bites. She had received an upbringing that many people could not imagine since she was a child. Her every move was beautiful, and she would not lose her composure even when she was very hungry.

By night, the two of them had devoured more than 20 kilograms of barbecued meat and drank three bottles of red wine. Lin Zhen himself ate more than 18 kilograms of meat and drank two bottles of wine.

Su Mingyue had a small appetite, but she still ate almost two kilograms of meat.

After tidying up and taking back the liquid metal, Lin Zhen tidied up his nest and prepared for Su Mingyue to live in. He spread a layer of flower petals not far away and prepared to rest.

However, Su Mingyue did not let Lin Zhen leave immediately. Slightly drunk, she insisted on holding Lin Zhen to chat, saying that they had to stay up on New Year's Eve and she wanted to chat all night.

The two of them lay side by side in Lin Zhen's little nest, looking up at the sky and chatting casually.

"Lin Zhen, do you have any specific plans during your time here?" Su Mingyue asked.

She only calls Lin Zhen "idol" when she is extremely happy, otherwise she just calls him by his name.

"I'm not asking you to capture that guy today. He told me some news. There are three places in this bush with the most star crystals, but they are all very dangerous. I plan to practice for a while to improve my strength, and then go to those places to find more star crystals."

"Then can I go with you?" Su Mingyue asked Lin Zhen with her head tilted, and a fragrance like orchid and musk filled her face.

"Of course. Our class is now divided. I think we will have to fight against other classes in the future. One more person means more strength."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Su Mingyue is actually still feeling vulnerable right now, and Lin Zhen saved her, so she instinctively relies on Lin Zhen. These unintentional words coming out of her mouth are extremely damaging to men.

Even Lin Zhen felt a little swelled in his heart. This was not because he was childish, but because it was a man's nature. Being able to be relied on by such a peerless beauty was a kind of luck in itself.

Lin Zhen stretched his body vigorously, threw away these emotions, looked at the sky and said: "It would be great if I could see the starry sky now. I haven't seen any stars since I came here."

"I have a plan."

Su Mingyue smiled, gently reached into her arms, and pulled out a stargazing telescope from her clothes. As her fingers moved, a breathtaking whiteness on her chest quietly caught Lin Zhen's eyes, making him a little dazzled.

The slightly drunk Su Mingyue hadn't noticed yet and handed the stargazing mirror to Lin Zhen: "This thing has a wonderful use. You can inject Dantian Qi into it and see the depths of the starry sky. The stronger the Dantian Qi, the farther you can see. My master's master is said to be able to see the depths of the Milky Way."

"So magical?" Lin Zhen was surprised. He took the stargazing telescope and looked inside.

The Qi from Dantian was injected, and soon a sky full of stars appeared on the stargazing mirror.

Unlike the star cores we usually see, the planets above can be vaguely seen with some outlines, rather than just small spots of light as we usually see.

Lin Zhen became more and more interested and increased the amount of Qi injected into his Dantian. Soon, he even saw the craters on the moon, the sand dunes on Mars, the dazzling rings outside Jupiter, and even in more distant places, he even saw Pluto silently wandering at the edge of the solar system, but it was just a vague shadow.

He had already injected the maximum amount of energy into his Dantian, but he couldn't see any further.

"It's amazing! This treasure is so important!" Lin Zhen looked at it for more than half an hour before putting down the stargazing telescope, his heart surging.

As long as he had this thing, as long as his realm was raised a little, he would be able to see the situation outside the solar system. If he reached the level of a god of war, he would be able to see even further. What if he entered the star realm? Would he be able to see the situation a few light years away from the Milky Way? If that were possible, then when an extraterrestrial civilization invaded, would he be able to detect it in advance and be prepared? For the first time since Lin Zhen's rebirth, he saw hope in fighting against extraterrestrial civilizations.

Just as he was about to say something to Su Mingyue, he felt his shoulder feel a little heavy. Turning back, he saw that Su Mingyue had fallen asleep at some point. Her long hair was disheveled, her jade-like face was resting on his shoulder, and her breathing was even.

Lin Zhen gently touched Su Mingyue's long hair, and his heart softened. It would have been fine if they had not met, but since they had met, he could not let Su Mingyue go down the same path as in her previous life.

Taking Su Mingyue's little hand, Lin Zhen placed the stargazing telescope in her palm, then gently moved it away. Su Mingyue seemed to sense Lin Zhen's departure and twisted slightly, with an unhappy expression on her little face. Lin Zhen smiled and patted her shoulder gently, and she calmed down after a while.

Covering her with the flower petals, Lin Zhen left his nest and came to the edge of the pond.

Today he didn't want to continue practicing the River of Lightning. He had basically mastered this gun technique and would slowly become proficient in it in the future. Now he had more important things to do, which was to absorb the second planet core.

He already has a dark star in his body, so it is impossible to form a second one. However, the cold air contained in the core of the planet is what he values. Absorbing it this time should not be as difficult as last time.

There was silence all around. Lin Zhen sat by the pond and took out the planet's core.

The metallic smell contained in the core of this planet is extremely strong. It is not any kind of metal, but it is better than any kind of metal.

Lin Zhen felt that his condition was perfect at this time, so he placed the planet core in his dantian.

He slowly circulated the Qi in his Dantian, and a golden light appeared from the core of the planet and entered his Dantian.

"Oh!"

Lin Zhen raised his head and groaned, it was so painful!

Although the sharp metallic aura would not harm his body, it acted on his dantian, causing Lin Zhen to feel unbearable pain.

It felt like his dantian was stabbed hard by a sharp knife, and sweat broke out on Lin Zhen's body.

"Not good! I took it for granted. The strength of this gold energy is far beyond my imagination. This is just one metallic aura, and within the core of this planet, I conservatively estimate that there are nearly ten thousand metallic auras. If you want to absorb them one by one, it will definitely not be completed in a day or two."

"But no matter what, I must absorb this gold energy core. If I can't finish it in one day, I'll take two days. If I can't finish it in two days, I'll take a month. Sooner or later, I'll finish absorbing it."

After finally absorbing the first ray of golden energy into the dark star, Lin Zhen took a long time to relax before starting to absorb the second ray.

The second time, Lin Zhen was prepared and felt a little better, but not much better. He was still shaking in pain, and it took him a long time to recover.

"My goodness, why is it always so self-torturing to absorb the core of a planet? Even if I'm prepared, the pain is still so unbearable."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This time, Lin Zhen took a long time to calm down before he mustered up the courage to start absorbing the third golden energy.

After absorbing the three energy, he wanted to try out the effect of the gold energy.

He raised his finger and aimed at a tree trunk in front of him.

According to Lin Zhen's prediction, the golden energy would shoot out from the fingertips and easily penetrate the tree trunk, but in the end the golden energy did not successfully shoot out and still existed quietly in the dark star.

"I understand. The amount of gold energy is too small to form a cycle. We must absorb all of the core of this planet. Then the gold energy will form a cycle and be endless. We can use it at will."

After understanding the principle, Lin Zhen practiced by the pond for a whole night.

Only someone with an extremely strong soul like Lin Zhen could endure tremendous pain, from absorbing one by one, to absorbing three by three, and finally even absorbing five by five.

In one night, Lin Zhen absorbed a total of 300 golden energies! In the early morning, he stopped absorbing them, but his muscles were still throbbing uncontrollably, and they were all painful.

After a night of absorption, about one-thirtieth of the gold core was absorbed.

"It's exactly as I estimated. The total amount of gold energy in the core of this planet is about 10,000. I will proceed step by step. Even if the progress is getting faster and faster in the later stages, it will still take about ten days or even half a month to complete."

"Once the absorption of the gold energy core is complete, I estimate that my gravity will be able to reach a higher level, which is also a benefit."

Lin Zhen rubbed his muscles and tried to stand up but found it a bit difficult.

At this moment, he suddenly heard Su Mingyue's somewhat anxious voice: "Lin Zhen, Lin Zhen, where are you?"

"I'm here."

Lin Zhen answered and tried hard to stand up.

A fragrant breeze blew over, Su Mingyue ran over and supported Lin Zhen: "What's wrong with you?"

Seeing the saint's anxious expression, Lin Zhen smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just practiced a little too much and my body hurts a little."

"You can't rush into practicing. I was drunk yesterday and fell asleep in a daze."

Su Mingyue felt a little embarrassed. She was also a spiritualist and didn't need too much sleep. It was just that she slept for such a long time last night because she was drunk.

Lin Zhen gently tapped her jade-like forehead with his finger: "Go wash up, your hair is disheveled."

Su Mingyue was stunned for a moment. She was not used to other people's intimate actions. Her position as a saint made her feel superior, and even women did not dare to get too close to her. But now she was supporting Lin Zhen, and Lin Zhen was tapping her forehead lightly. She did not feel anything unnatural about these actions, as if it was supposed to be this way.
