Chapter 173 Tang Yu Appears (5th update)
As soon as Dong Shencai's ice knife appeared, Lin Zhen knew that this battle was doomed.
Since the mental shield couldn't withstand the attack, Lin Zhen simply gave up on defense and concentrated all his strength on the bright silver spears. At the same time, five of them flew into the air to intercept the opponent's ice knives, and he rushed towards Dong Shencai with all his strength!
The spear turned into bright gold, and the sharp edge even caused the space to vibrate slightly. Lin Zhen's body was covered with a layer of frost, but he rushed forward without hesitation!
Dong Shencai was like an ice cellar, with cold air gushing out from his every move. The two swords in his hands did not stop, and he launched a fierce attack at Lin Zhen! Attack for attack!
After the violent shock, the cold disappeared and Lin Zhen's body flew out of the ring. His whole body was white, with several wounds on his chest.
If it lands, it means failure.
But Lin Zhen did not fall down. He moved his arms twice to remove the layer of frost on his body, then turned to Dong Shencai and said, "I have learned your lesson. We still have time to fight again."
After saying that, Lin Zhen walked back to his own camp.
On the ring, Dong Shencai's face turned blue, and finally, under the gaze of the crowd, blood began to flow from one of his arms. It was a wound caused by Lin Zhen's gunshot, and the bone was visible.
White cold air gushed out, and the wound stopped bleeding immediately. Dong Shencai slowly walked down the stage.
Captain Wang walked over at this time and said in a tactless manner: "Ms. Dong, you are really amazing. You defeated Lin Zhen in three minutes."
"Get out!" Dong Shencai spat out a word coldly, and Captain Wang was suddenly speechless.
The battle was over and there was an uproar all around.
"Sure enough, I was right, Lin Zhen lost."
"Everyone knows he can't win. Do you need to tell me that?"
"But I don't think Lin Zhen lost. That woman has compressed her Dantian Qi to the sixth level, and she has also absorbed special star crystals. It's amazing that Lin Zhen can beat her to this level. He has only compressed it to the first level. If Lin Zhen can reach the fourth level, I definitely think Lin Zhen will win."
"I think so too, but Lin Zhen probably has no chance. With the third group blocking him from now on, he won't be able to obtain star crystals. How can he make progress?"
"Boss Zhou's plan to wipe out the entire family is too cruel. It directly cuts off the retreat of the people."
Lin Zhen returned to the team, sat there, took out medicine and took it. Fortunately, he robbed Brother Guang's space ring, otherwise it would be difficult to treat the injury.
Zhao Xiaoman asked with concern: "Brother Lin, how are you?"
"Fortunately, it's nothing serious. It's just a superficial wound. It will heal in ten days or half a month."
Jiang Huai came over and gave Lin Zhen a thumbs up: "I admire you. Boss Lin is indeed my idol. If I go up there, I might not be able to last even a minute."
Li Changying added: "Half a minute is enough. This woman is even stronger than Hua Cangtian."
Lin Zhen took a breath and said, "Who's next? Go ahead!"
Jiang Huai straightened his clothes, stood up and stepped onto the stage.
The second person to appear on the opposing team was Li Xuanqiong. Encouraged by Lin Zhen, Jiang Huai was not afraid of Li Xuanqiong at all. Although he was always suppressed by Li Xuanqiong in the fight between the two, he lasted for two minutes before being defeated, and was only slightly injured.
Afterwards, Li Changying came on the stage and faced Hua Cangtian again. This time, Li Changying's performance was much better than last time. With some preparation, Hua Cangtian was no longer able to defeat Li Changying in three moves. The fight lasted for two minutes.
The score is now three to zero, and Lin Zhen's team's challenge has failed. Tong Huan was about to announce the result, but Lin Zhen's side insisted on fighting, and Lou Qingfeng continued to appear on the stage.
Facing Zhang Sihai, Lou Qingfeng fully utilized his advantage as a spiritual master. They flew and fought each other. The fight between the two lasted for one and a half minutes, but Lou Qingfeng was still defeated because of the huge gap in strength.
Zhao Xiaoman finally took to the battlefield. Her opponent was the former captain. The disparity in this battle was not that great. Zhao Xiaoman fought with Captain Wang for five minutes, and finally lost due to a mistake.
After stepping down, Zhao Xiaoman pouted and said, "I'll wait for the next time. I'm going to practice hard and I'm sure I'll defeat him in half a year."
At this point, Lin Zhen's challenge ended in failure, but the four gods of the sky on the winning side were not very happy, especially since Dong Shencai, the top master among the four gods, was actually injured in the battle with Lin Zhen, which cast a shadow on their victory.
Zhang Sihai said to Dong Shencai, who had a very grim expression, "Shencai, you don't have to be too depressed. After all, Lin Zhen is their top fighter, and he only lasted three minutes under your hands. He is far from being your opponent."
Dong Shencai said coldly: "Right now, Lin Zhen is indeed not my opponent, but if I give him time to grow up, I think in just over a year, he may be able to surpass me."
"This is easy to handle. Why are we here? Isn't it just to strangle Lin Zhen and the others? It won't take a year, just half a year. After half a year, Ye Lanshan will have to leave the Star Fruit Tree. At that time, our mission will be completed. Without Ye Lanshan's restraint, the Overlord will not only be able to get the beauty, but also take action himself. By then, Lin Zhen will be dead for sure."
Hua Cangtian also added: "That's true. Although their team has good potential, it has not yet grown up. As long as we firmly hold the third position, they will never be able to cross the line or get a star crystal. After half a year, they will be indistinguishable from the crowd even if they don't disband."
Dong Shencai nodded: "Okay, we will stay here for half a year, and then we will complete Overlord's mission. However, there will be no need for Overlord to take action at that time. I will deal with Lin Zhen myself."
After Lin Zhen's team was defeated, they did not appear in the hive for many days in a row. Everyone was recuperating in the tree hole. Until a whole week passed, the fifth-ranked team seemed to see an opportunity and brazenly challenged Lin Zhen's fourth team and chose a team battle.
This time, Lin Zhen led his team to appear. Although his injuries were not fully healed, the battle took less than a minute and he swept the challenger off the ring with ease.
At this time, those who were making weird remarks shut up.
Lin Zhen’s team was indeed no match for the Four Gods of the Sky, but it was still effortless for them to deal with some of the lower-ranked teams. If anyone thought that they were pushovers, they were very wrong.
In fact, Lin Zhen has not been idle during the past week. He heals his wounds during the day and goes out to collect star crystals at night.
However, it was no use going out during the day, as the Four Gods of the Sky were blocking the third group. Lin Zhen and his teammates would not get any star crystals. The teammates had no source of star crystals, which made Lin Zhen unable to eat alone anymore. Instead, he began to distribute the star crystals to his teammates.
However, Lin Zhen did not give them stellar crystals directly. Instead, he asked Brother Guang from the Ant Cave to send some planetary crystals to them every day, mixed with a few stellar crystals.
This also surprised Jiang Huai and the others. They didn't know how Lin Zhen could make Brother Guang so obedient, but with star crystals to absorb, they couldn't do much about it.
However, the warriors at the hive were having a hard time. Every morning when they went to the hive, they found that there were only one or two star crystals on it. This made them feel very strange and they thought that there was some problem inside the hive.
Since no one could pick them at night, no one thought about it.
More than a month passed like this, and Lin Zhen's Dantian Qi compression finally reached the fourth level.
In addition to him, Jiang Huai and Li Changying are about to reach the third level of compression, while Lou Qingfeng has also completed one level of compression, and Zhao Xiaoman is about to enter the second level.
Lin Zhen once again challenged the Four Gods of the Sky, attracting a large crowd of onlookers.
The two sides had a tacit understanding and did not even change the order of appearance. The result was the same. Lin Zhen's side lost, and the time they lasted did not change. The only difference was that Lin Zhen's side was not injured this time.
After this failure, Lin Zhen seemed very depressed. He left with his members in a dejected manner, and it was obvious that they had lost confidence.
People left with some boredom. It seemed that Lin Zhen's team had not made any progress in strength in the past month or so. There was no point in watching any further.
When they returned to the tree hole, Zhao Xiaoman asked in confusion: "Brother Lin, this time you asked us to challenge again, but we are not allowed to go all out. The only requirement is not to get hurt. What's the point of doing this?"
Lin Zhen smiled and said, “This way people will think that we have completely given up, and others will not pay much attention to you. You should know that in a few days, you will all have a breakthrough. If you don’t keep a low profile, you will definitely be discovered by someone with ulterior motives.”
"So what should we do next?" Lou Qingfeng asked.
"Stay here, don't go out or see anyone, just practice honestly, and let people think you are waiting for the Four Gods of the Sky to leave, and for me to come back."
"Brother Lin, are you leaving? Where are you going?" Zhao Xiaoman asked in surprise. Although she could not go to the hive anymore, Brother Guang still sent her star crystals every day. She felt that this life was pretty good. Her cultivation was not slowing down at all. In another year or so, she might be able to defeat the Four Gods of the Sky.
Lin Zhen thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to go out for a walk. Maybe I'll be back in a few days. Don't worry."
Several team members stopped talking. Lin Zhen was a competent captain and they did not want to interfere with Lin Zhen's actions.
Lin Zhen didn't want to leave on a whim, but for two reasons.
The first one is just as he said, continuing to stay in the hive will also attract attention. In this way, if he leaves, no one will pay attention to his teammates. At most, he can quietly come back at night to pick up the star crystals, which will not affect the progress of his realm.
The second reason is that Lin Zhen simply cannot afford to waste time with the Four Gods of the Sky. Although Lin Zhen is confident that he can defeat the Four Gods of the Sky in half a year, can he wait half a year?
If he really waited for half a year, Su Mingyue would definitely be in trouble, and Lin Zhen himself would be in danger of losing his life. Even if he defeated the Four Gods of the Sky, he would not be able to defeat the Little Bully Yue Feng.
So he had to go out there, and he already had a goal.
Yesterday he saw Tang Yu appear on the locator!
Today I will add the third chapter for the leader of this book (Tian Haoyu).
