Chapter 136 Breakthrough, Level 4 General! (Update 7)
Lin Zhen really wanted to slap Zhang Yue to death at this moment. You are so fat that you can fall down while running. Just fall down. Why are you calling me? But Lin Zhen was not the kind of person who would abandon his companions at will. In desperation, he grabbed Zhang Yue, and the hydraulic metal turned into a shield. He quickly passed through the bushes, turned seven or eight times, and disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.
This is the advantage of a psychic, being able to fly. However, flying among the bushes is a very dangerous thing. Not only may you fail to turn in time and crash into a tree trunk, you may also be killed by insects lurking in the dark.
If the other side's two high-level generals had not been chasing closely, Lin Zhen would not have been willing to take the risk of using this trick, but now there was no other way and he could only take the risk.
Fortunately, they were lucky this time and did not encounter any insects. With Lin Zhen's extraordinary performance, it was almost impossible to catch the psychic in the dense forest. Finally, they escaped safely.
Finally, the two people fell into a tree pit. Lin Zhen found a leaf and let it fall freely, and used mental power to control it to cover the entrance of the hole.
This place was very secretive and would basically not be discovered by anyone, so the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hehe! Idol, you are really my idol. You can actually snatch food from the tiger's mouth and grab all three star crystals. Following you is the wisest choice I have ever made in my life."
Zhang Yue also knew that he had done something wrong, and now he hurried to flatter Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen let out a long sigh: "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be in such a mess."
"Yes, yes, it's all my fault." Zhang Yue nodded quickly and admitted his mistake.
“But I don’t feel sorry for the death of my idol Tang Yu. But Su Mingyue is so beautiful. Wouldn’t it be tragic if she fell into the hands of those beasts?” Zhang Yue was still a little worried about Su Mingyue. After all, it was hard not to like a girl who looked like a fairy.
Lin Zhen shook his head gently: "Don't worry about it. Among the three groups, the strongest ones are the two warriors who are chasing us. We have helped Su Mingyue by leading them away. Otherwise, Su Mingyue would be in big trouble. In this way, although Su Mingyue and the others will have a harder time, they should still be able to win."
"Oh! So my idol has already figured it out. He is really a master at planning. Hey! Is it for me?"
Lin Zhen handed a star core crystal to Zhang Yue, and he immediately shut up.
"Take it. We two are in urgent need of improving our strength. We can't always do such sneaky things. Hurry up and absorb it. The more strength we have, the more protection we have."
Zhang Yue nodded hurriedly, stopped talking nonsense, took the star core crystal and began to absorb it.
Lin Zhen still has two star crystals in his hand, one of which is at the star core stage. The energy contained in this star crystal is more than twice as strong as the one Lin Zhen absorbed before, which is enough for him to break through to the fourth-level general in one fell swoop.
And the meteor crystal in his hand is even better. It has been more than a month since he entered the meteor week, which can allow Lin Zhen to make a big step forward on the road to the beginner level of level four.
Without doing anything unnecessary, Lin Zhen placed the two star crystals on his dantian at the same time and began to absorb them.
Lin Zhen was extremely eager for strength. He felt okay outside before, but when he got into the Star Fruit Tree, anyone he called out here was an elite general, a strong one among the generals. Challenging opponents of higher levels was something that almost everyone had done.
Especially those high-level generals, some of whom can even challenge the God of War above their level, which makes Lin Zhen feel a little powerless.
There are also those old students who have been stranded in the fruit trees for several years. Each of them has abnormally strong fighting power. Even if Lin Zhen wants to compete for the star crystals, he can only do it secretly and cannot go out to fight head-on.
He needs strength, even stronger strength. If he wants to seize the star crystal, he must defeat his competitors and fight to support himself. Without strength as capital, it will not work.
He had already thought about it. After breaking through to the intermediate level of general, he would take some time to calm down and practice his skills. He still had a long time to spend inside the star fruit tree and there was no need to rush.
The Dantian Qi began to circulate, and the two star crystals simultaneously emitted strands of white airflow, penetrating deep into Lin Zhen's skin and injecting into his Dantian.
Five minutes later, Lin Zhen felt that the thin membrane that was preventing him from breaking through was about to be broken, and the boundary of the junior general was about to be opened!
"Break it for me!"
A torrent of energy was injected into the Dantian. At this moment, the boundaries of Lin Zhen's Dantian were expanding rapidly.
There is only one level difference between a level three general and a level four general, but there is an essential difference between them. This is the boundary from elementary to intermediate level. Whether it is upgrading from level two to level three, or from level four to level five, the power increased by the upgrading from level three to level four is not as much.
The edge of the dantian rumbled forward, Lin Zhen's lower abdomen contracted and expanded, and the breath began to collide at this moment. Under the injection of external energy, the airflow rolled like a tide.
This process lasted for a full ten minutes, until the two star crystals were completely absorbed, and Lin Zhen's Dantian expansion finally stopped.
“Okay, great!”
Lin Zhen used his mental power to look inward at his Dantian and was surprised to find that he not only broke through to the fourth-level general in one fell swoop, but also reached the peak of the early fourth level!
The power of this meteor crystal is indeed strong. It is the best star crystal that a junior general can take. It is estimated that it will not take long for him to enter the comet week. However, junior generals cannot take crystals in the comet week. Lin Zhen is about to break through, and this meteor crystal comes at the right time.
If his Dantian Qi storage capacity was 100 before, it has now reached 150! His strength has increased by one third.
"This is quite interesting. With this powerful Dantian Qi as a foundation, I can truly have a place in the Star Fruit Tree."
"Of course, this level of strength is still not enough. At least I am not suitable for wandering around. I should find a place to practice my skills properly."
"At this stage, in order to improve my strength, in addition to cultivating my mental power, what I should do more is to cultivate my fourth level of spearmanship, Changhe!"
It has been some time since Lin Zhen got Changhe's secret book, but he has never had the time to practice properly. Now that he is inside the fruit tree, he has plenty of time.
After making up his mind, he opened his eyes, and there was a flash of gold and silver in his eyes, which made Zhang Yue, who had been waiting nearby, feel a little nervous.
"Idol! Your strength has improved by leaps and bounds. Just now your mental strength was overflowing uncontrollably. I think your Dantian strength has surpassed mine."
Zhang Yue had just broken through to the fourth-level general a few days ago, and had just absorbed a star core crystal, but his dantian was still not as big and strong as Lin Zhen's at the moment.
Lin Zhen glanced at Zhang Yue, thought for a moment and said, "Zhang Yue, I want to find a place to practice for a while. Do you want to come with me?"
When Zhang Yue heard Lin Zhen's words, he hesitated for a moment.
It is certainly safer to follow Lin Zhen, but from what Lin Zhen said, this training will not take one or two days. Zhang Yue has a keen sense of smell. If he uses this time to look for star crystals, wouldn't he improve his strength faster?
But he couldn't make up his mind to leave Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen smiled and said, "Don't hesitate. It's too boring for you to go out and practice with me. It's better for you to find star crystals by yourself. How about this, we separate for now. Anyway, this star fruit tree is not so big that it is boundless. We will meet again."
Zhang Yue was not a person who would drag his feet. After hearing Lin Zhen's advice, he knew that this would benefit both of them, so he smiled and said, "My idol, I will just wander around outside. When you have mastered your magical skills, we can travel together."
"Okay, it's a deal!"
"It's a deal!"
Without much words, the two chose to part ways here.
After Zhang Yue left, Lin Zhen had already decided where to go.
He wants to find water!
If you want to practice the Changhe Spear Technique, you have to find a river or a place with water, which will be more conducive to the comprehension of the spear technique.
If you were to ask where the most water source is in the entire Star Fruit Tree, it would undoubtedly be the Tree Heart Lake. However, the Tree Heart Lake is the center of the entire Star Fruit Tree, and people often go there, which is not conducive to cultivation.
Moreover, Shuxin Lake is a lake, not a river, which is inconsistent with the artistic conception of Changhe's spearmanship.
There are also rivers above the star fruit trees. Although there may not be any big rivers, the dew in the past few days reminded Lin Zhen that as long as he finds a place with abundant dew and has thick tree trunks, the water will flow to the lower places and naturally form rivers.
After all, the star fruit tree covers such a large area and absorbs enough water. If there were no rivers, there would not be a lake as huge as the Tree Heart Lake that never dries up.
Although Lin Zhen did not plan to practice in the Tree Heart Lake, he still had to go to the Tree Heart Lake to find the river that flowed into the Lake, and then walk upstream along the river. He would definitely be able to find a place suitable for practice.
After leaving Zhang Yue, Lin Zhen set out on his journey alone and began to move downward along the tree trunk, looking for the lake in the heart of the tree.
Lin Zhen walked forward alone with a clear goal in mind. After two days of walking, on the morning of the third day, he finally saw the Tree Heart Lake.
Walking out from among the branches and leaves, a vast expanse of mist appears before one’s eyes.
The lake is ten miles long, and above it are leaves that block out the sun. The scene here is truly a wonder on earth.
After looking around and seeing that there was no one around, Lin Zhen walked out of the bushes and carefully observed the situation in the tree heart lake.
After careful observation, Lin Zhen discovered that there were about six or seven rivers flowing into the Tree Heart Lake. The lake water was seeping into the tree trunks every day. Without the continuous influx of rivers upstream, the lake would have dried up long ago.
Among these six or seven rivers, the flow of one river in the north seems to be the largest.
This is because the south faces the sun, the east and west sides are also exposed to sunlight for some time, and the river water evaporates. The north side is not exposed to sunlight, so naturally the amount of water in the river is larger.
"I followed the river to the north and found a secluded spot to practice my Long River Spear Technique."
Lin Zhen made up his mind and started walking north.
As he walked, he discovered that the north side was actually closer to the platform area, but Lin Zhen didn't care. There shouldn't be anyone on the platform, so he shouldn't meet anyone.
But just as he was about to lower his head and dive into the bushes, a soft female voice suddenly came from behind him.
The voice is clear and pleasant, like pearls falling on a jade plate. One can imagine that the owner must be a beautiful woman.
But the tone was not so pleasant, and he asked with a hint of sarcasm: "Idol, where are you going?"
