Chapter 179 Three months later,
inside the tree hole in the sky, Jiang Huai and his companions were still practicing.
Brother Guang in the Ant Cave has tried his best and sent almost all the star crystals that the Ant Cave could collect here, which allows Jiang Huai and the others to still practice at a fast speed.
Li Changying opened his eyes and let out a long breath: "Huh! Done! Fifth level. I finally completed the fifth level of Dantian Qi compression!"
Jiang Huai smiled and patted Li Changying on the shoulder: "Congratulations, even though you are one day slower than me."
"Hmph! There is no end to the road of cultivation. What's the point of a mere one day's difference? I will definitely surpass you next time." Li Changying was dissatisfied.
"Okay, I'll wait, but let's take a look at the two of them first. They should have made a breakthrough by then."
At this time, Lou Qingfeng also opened his eyes: "I am not as perverted as you two. The triple compression is completed, but the quadruple compression will take a few days. This is also thanks to Brother Guang who sends the stellar crystals every day."
"Not bad, you will be at the fourth level in a few days, not much different from us. I wonder how Xiaoman is doing."
As he was talking, Zhao Xiaoman walked out from the tree hole inside: "I have reached the fourth level of compression, which is a few days faster than Lou Qingfeng. This guy was so far behind me at the beginning, but now he is catching up with me."
"This is normal. After all, Lou Qingfeng is also a spiritualist. It is understandable that he is faster."
Jiang Huai said, and then leaned against the tree hole: "Although it's very fast to practice like this, I'm still a little worried. Lin Zhen has been gone for three months, and there has been no news until now. I don't know where he is. I hope there will be no accidents."
Li Changying shook his head: "There won't be any accidents. The insects in this star fruit tree are no longer able to harm Lin Zhen. Even if we go out now, as long as we don't encounter enemies or go into a swarm of insects to seek death, there will be basically no danger."
Zhao Xiaoman also nodded repeatedly: "Brother Lin will definitely be fine. He may be back soon. He won't abandon us."
Lou Qingfeng heard what several people said, and hesitantly said: "It's been very noisy outside these days. I vaguely heard some people talking, and it seems that the matter over at Tianqiong is about to come to a conclusion."
Several people looked at Lou Qingfeng, knowing that he had something else to say.
"I think the Four Gods of the Sky may be leaving soon." Lou Qingfeng expressed his judgment.
After a brief thought, several people nodded. Everyone knew the purpose of the Four Gods of the Sky, and it was indeed time for them to leave.
Seeing Lou Qingfeng's worried look, Zhao Xiaoman said, "Brother Lou, what are you worried about? Isn't it just right that they left? We can go out now."
"I'm not worried about that, I'm worried about..."
Before Lou Qingfeng finished speaking, several people suddenly looked stern.
Because there were footsteps outside, someone was coming.
Lou Qingfeng smiled bitterly: "This is what I am worried about. It seems that we are still hidden dangers after all. Someone is going to attack us."
******** The sky is located on the upper level of the star fruit tree, close to the treetop.
This is a large open area. Because it is close to the treetops, there is not much difference between here and the outside world.
In the early morning, you can see the rising sun, and at night, you can also see the starry sky.
People here can even see the moon and enjoy the gentle breeze, rain and water, and the clear sky, which are things that warriors from other places cannot enjoy.
Moreover, with the nourishment of sunshine and rain, and being closer to the outside world, the star crystals here grow the best and most.
In places where star crystals are abundant, pieces of flowers are swaying, and there are star crystals from the star core stage to the stellar stage everywhere.
Of course, those in the stellar stage are the least, and most of them are low-level star crystals.
The star crystals here are distributed according to a system, and who each star crystal is allocated to is decided by the top leaders here, so there is no fighting in Tianqiong.
Although going out is not prohibited, few warriors are willing to leave the Sky and go to other places. The training here is fast and the environment is good. Why bother to go outside to fight insects and compete with other warriors?
In the very center of the sky, there is a house built entirely of wood, or to be more precise, a palace.
This palace has been under construction for many years. Every ruler of the sky would repair the palace. Over the hundreds of years, the palace has not only not been decayed by wind and rain, but has become better and more magnificent.
All the Sky Warriors live in this palace complex, which makes them linger and never want to go anywhere else.
The main hall of the palace is where every ruler lives. The person living here now is Yue Feng, the little tyrant from the base city of the capital, who is said to have a powerful background.
Behind the main hall, there is a beautiful palace where the wife of a ruler once lived. Its environment and location are even better and more beautiful than the main hall.
People call this place the Sky Harem.
Entering the harem, there is a river winding among the trees. The water in the river is formed by the morning dew. The river will have a high tide once every morning, and the water level will drop a little at night.
There is an exquisitely carved wooden bridge over the river. After walking across the bridge, an ivy-covered path leads to the entrance of the harem.
No warrior dares to come here casually. This is a forbidden area. Only the overlord and those who live here are qualified to enter and exit.
Walking through the flower path, you will see a wooden door in the style of the Gregorian calendar period. Pushing open the door, you will see a beautiful square table, a comfortable rocking chair, an exquisite bed carved from the wood inside a fruit tree, and even hanging gauze curtains.
There is a faint fragrance here, the smell is fresh and pleasant, and you can tell at a glance that the owner is a beautiful woman.
A faint voice could be heard from above the big bed.
"Mingyue, how's your progress?" The woman's voice was very attractive, deep and gentle.
"Senior Sister, I'm fine. I've reached the peak of the late eighth level, but I think my ninth level compression is the limit."
Su Mingyue's long-lost voice rang out, and a breeze blew across the gauze curtains on the bed. She was dressed in white, sitting on the bed with her knees hugged, her long hair falling like a waterfall, her eyebrows drooping.
"Master really didn't make a mistake in choosing you. You are a natural prodigy. Senior sister's aptitude is pretty good, but at most she can only reach the eighth level. Moreover, I am more than eight years older than you. You are only twenty-one, but you have already surpassed senior sister. It will take a few more days for senior sister to reach the eighth level."
"Senior Sister, are you really leaving? I don't want you to leave."
"There's really no other way. If you don't leave, your journey as a warrior will end. But don't worry, you still have Yue Feng. He's actually quite good to you. Almost all the star crystals here are given priority to you. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to advance from the ninth level to the eighth level in two and a half years, and even advance to the ninth level soon. Your progress is faster than my progress."
Su Mingyue lowered her head and said nothing.
Opposite her, a woman in brocade clothes was whispering to comfort her. The woman looked to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, but in fact she was already twenty-nine and would soon be thirty. This was her senior sister Ye Lanshan.
Su Mingyue raised her head and looked at Ye Lanshan: "Senior Sister, I don't care. I try my best to absorb the star crystals so that I can get rid of him sooner."
"Mingyue, people always have to be more realistic, right? Are you still thinking about Lin Zhen?"
Su Mingyue still didn't answer, her beautiful red lips stubbornly pursed into a line.
"You have been staying here and don't know what is happening outside. Do you know how Lin Zhen is doing now?"
Su Mingyue looked up at Ye Lanshan, but still didn't say anything.
"If you don't want to know, then I won't tell you. I'm leaving in a few days anyway." Ye Lanshan said indifferently.
"I I want to know." Su Mingyue lowered her head, her voice barely audible.
"Haha, I guess you wouldn't want to know, but Senior Sister has to tell you first. Don't be too disappointed after hearing it."
"Senior Sister, please speak." Su Mingyue looked up.
"I got the news that Lin Zhen left the hive three months ago and disappeared. He hasn't appeared in three months."
Hearing this news, Su Mingyue's eyes suddenly lit up: "Did Lin Zhen leave the Star Fruit Tree?"
"No, there is no news that anyone has left the platform. Lin Zhen is still in the fruit tree, but no one knows where he went."
Su Mingyue blinked, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Mingyue, do you think he will come to save you? But I advise you to give up. Do you know how strong Lin Zhen is now?"
Su Mingyue shook her head to indicate that she didn't know, but she felt that Lin Zhen must be very strong. When she and he parted, his fighting ability was almost surpassing hers, so he should be very strong now.
"Three months ago, Lin Zhen was just a warrior who hadn't even completed the first level of Dantian Qi compression. How strong can he be three months later?"
"Impossible, Lin Zhen can't be that weak." Su Mingyue said firmly.
"Don't disbelieve me. Do you think everyone has such a unique condition like you? The star crystals in the sky are freely available for you to absorb. Lin Zhen has to fight with others outside, and he has teammates, and the star crystals have to be distributed. In the two years in the ant nest, he didn't even compress the Dantian Qi at all. He only started to compress it when he arrived at the beehive. And now that he has left the beehive, there is no more room for star crystals in the star fruit tree, so I guess he has given up."
Although what Ye Lanshan said made sense, Su Mingyue still shook her head firmly: "Senior sister, you don't understand Lin Zhen. He is a man with extraordinary willpower. He never knows how to give up. He taught me this truth."
"Silly girl, people will change. The cruelty outside is enough to destroy people's will." Ye Lanshan advised earnestly.
"No!"
Su Mingyue stood up and slowly walked to the window. A breeze blew her long hair. When she looked back, her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting. More than two years had made her even more beautiful. She opened her mouth slightly, but her tone was extremely firm: "Even if the world turns upside down, Lin Zhen will never change. I believe in him more than I do in my faith."
