Originally, hearing such a beautiful voice in this desolate forest would be an enjoyable thing, but Lin Zhen suddenly felt his scalp tighten.
Fiercely turning his head, as expected, Su Mingyue was standing not far away, wearing a white robe. Her face was cold as she looked at Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen didn't need to pay attention to normal students, but Su Mingyue was different.
It wasn't because Su Mingyue was a super beauty, nor was it because she was the Divine Sect's Holy Maiden, respected by tens of thousands of people.
It was because of Su Mingyue's bravery in his previous life. At that time, Lin Zhen had personally seen Su Mingyue die in battle for the people of Earth, but he didn't have the courage to save her. Although he didn't have the corresponding strength at that time, there was still a trace of guilt in his heart.
Su Mingyue was without a doubt a good girl. She was beautiful and had a sense of justice. However, she was currently brainwashed by religion, so Lin Zhen couldn't do anything to her.
Moreover, the current Lin Zhen really wasn't Su Mingyue's opponent.
For Su Mingyue to be able to say, "Idol, where are you going?" meant that she had heard Zhang Yue's call that day, and knew who he was.
Lin Zhen cursed Zhang Yue in his heart. He really knew how to find trouble for himself, but he had to deal with Su Mingyue first.
"Ha! What a coincidence, Holy Maiden Su is also here. "
"En, sometimes there are coincidences in this world." Su Mingyue indifferently replied.
Lin Zhen sternly said, "Although I'm very happy to meet Holy Maiden Su, this is the wilderness. After all, there are differences between men and women. If we stay together, I'm afraid people will gossip. I'll leave first."
Su Mingyue's expression was calm, "I'm the Divine Sect's Holy Maiden. Everyone in the world is God's people. We should be together. What gossip? Idol, you're thinking too much."
Lin Zhen's mouth twitched, "Although I think I'm handsome, I've never been a star. Especially in Beijing, I'm not famous. Holy Maiden Su, it's better if you don't call me idol. I really don't deserve it."
"We're all students of the same year. If others can call you that, can't I?" Su Mingyue looked down at Lin Zhen from her vantage point. She could clearly see the embarrassment on his face. She felt a tinge of pleasure in her heart. This damned thief. She should have teased him properly.
"If you really want to call me idol, I can't keep you company."
As he spoke, Lin turned to leave.
Su Mingyue spoke again, "Idol, why are you in such a hurry to leave? I know a place with three Star Crystals. Don't you want to go and see if you have a chance? "
"Ha! Well, I don't have time right now. Since you found it, it's yours. I won't fight for it. "
"Since you know this, why did you try to steal it in the first place? Lin Zhen, to think that I thought you were a genius. Have you never read the teachings of the gods? First, you disrespected God. Then, you ignored the plight of your classmates and only focused on stealing the star crystals. Do you know why I'm here on the platform? "
Lin Zhen shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
"Xiao Wei, Xiao Yu, the two of them were seriously injured in the battle. They can no longer continue exploring. They can only return to the platform and choose to withdraw. It wasn't easy for them to join the training camp. If they withdraw like this, they can only be ordinary people. I'm here to send them away."
"Is that so? That's a pity." Lin Zhen smacked his lips. He looked left and right, looking for a place to quickly escape.
Su Mingyue was a bit excited, but she quickly calmed down. She took a deep breath and said, "I want to save you. Join the Divine Sect."
"Join the Divine Sect?" Lin Zhen was stunned.
"That's right. Join the Divine Sect. Otherwise, with your temperament, you'll cause trouble sooner or later. But you're a rare talent. After all, not everyone can steal the star crystals in that situation. But you did it. I told you before that I'll save you. Now, it's time for me to fulfill my promise." Su Mingyue said seriously. She was indifferent by nature. No matter what she said or did, she wouldn't be excited.
Lin Zhen thought for a moment and said, "Divine Sect … Oh, I know. It's that religion that says' Amitabha 'before you do something."
Su Mingyue's watery peach blossom eyes carried a trace of anger, "How can you be so ignorant? You're talking about the Buddhism of the Gong Yuan era. Don't you know anything about the teachings of the Starry Sky True God? It's like this. "
As she spoke, Su Mingyue closed her eyes. One of her hands covered her towering chest. She opened her mouth and said, "I can live under the starry sky. I can bathe in the night. My soul …"
After saying more than ten sentences, Su Mingyue finished the opening speech of the Divine Sect's believers. She opened her eyes and said, "It's like this. In the future, you … Damned thief!"
When she opened her eyes, she saw the corner of Lin Zhen's clothes disappear into the depths of the tree.
This brat didn't listen to what she said at all. Instead, he deliberately tricked her into reading the opening speech. This was because the opening speech of the Divine Sect required one to be read with their eyes closed. Moreover, he was a spirit reader master. He could silently start and quietly leave.
"You want to leave? Not so easy! Let's see how far you can go! "
Su Mingyue had been the Saintess since she was young. She had always been respected by others. When had she ever met someone like Lin Zhen who didn't give her, the Saintess, any face? Even though she already felt that it was very difficult and took the initiative to ask to save Lin Zhen, not only did he not appreciate it, he even made a fool out of her, the Saintess.
A rare expression of anger appeared on her face. She didn't even care that Tang Yu was still waiting for her to return. At this moment, she just wanted to catch Lin Zhen and teach him a lesson. She wanted to let this disrespectful guy know that the Gods didn't only have God's grace to save the world. Towards blasphemers, there was also God's might to punish you.
However, the trees were deep and dense. Lin Zhen still managed to run far away. It was very difficult for Su Mingyue to chase after him.
However, she still stepped on the flying shuttle and chased after him with her sword. She believed that as long as she didn't give up, she would definitely find Lin Zhen.
Retreating at this level of difficulty wasn't her Divine Sect Saintess character.
Lin Zhen shook off Su Mingyue and ran. Then, he turned a corner and purposely left a few traces along the way. Then, he quietly returned to the river and followed it upstream.
This was a huge tree trunk. Its width was even wider than the Yangtze River. In the middle of the tree trunk, there was a river that gathered rainwater and dew as it meandered down the tree.
The river was ten meters wide and the current was rapid. Occasionally, it would cause waves to splash against the shore.
"Yes, this river isn't bad. Moreover, the depth is quite suitable. As long as I follow this path, I'll definitely find a hidden spot."
After following the river for about three hours, Lin Zhen finally found a suitable place.
Above the river, there was a fork in the trees. Water flowed down from above into the river and formed a waterfall.
The branches below the waterfall were very steep. The river water was turbulent. It was here that the amount of water in the river started to increase.
Behind the branches, there was a gentle slope that formed a small pool. It was about thirty to forty meters in diameter. The water was incomparably clear. Moreover, it was rare that there weren't any insects here.
Below the pool was a river that flowed downwards. Previously, there were countless branches and leaves there, making it very difficult to approach. If it wasn't for Lin Zhen looking for water, he wouldn't have found this pool.
"Good! There's a waterfall, a river, and a pool. This is the place! "
Lin Zhen decided to settle down here. Looking around, he found that there was an open area by the pool that was suitable for living.
However, Lin Zhen didn't plan on building a thatched cottage. That would just provide a target for other martial artists.
After finding a hole in the open area, Lin Zhen found some flower petals and laid them down. He repeatedly laid down several layers until he felt comfortable enough.
After making a simple nest, it was already night time. Lin Zhen rested here.
Lying in the nest and looking up, Lin Zhen was surprised to find that he could see the sky through the cracks.
Although he could only see a small part of the sky, this was the first time Lin Zhen had seen the sky since he came to the Stellar Fruit Tree.
It was late at night, and the night was cold. A crescent moon appeared in the sky. The crescent moon was like a hook, faintly discernible in Lin Zhen's line of sight.
"This is really a good place. If only I could find more star crystals here. Unfortunately, my nose isn't as sensitive as Zhang Yue's."
"There's no way to leave the Stellar Fruit Tree for now. I wonder how things are going back home?"
Lin Zhen thought for a while and suddenly thought of a problem. Calculating the time, there were still four to five days until the new year.
It had been a few months since his reincarnation, and the new year was about to arrive.
In his previous life, he had no one to accompany him for the new year. That was because it was very difficult for him to meet people from Earth in the universe. After the great migration era, people from Earth had left the solar system. Many of their customs had become similar to those of other races in the universe. On the contrary, the customs of Earth had been gradually forgotten.
Moreover, even if he met people from Earth, they might not necessarily be Chinese.
Apart from the Chinese on Earth, no one would celebrate the new year. Later on, Lin Zhen had almost forgotten that there was such a festival.
"I'll forget about the new year this time. When things are more stable in the future, I'll try to spend every new year with my family."
After resting for a while, Lin Zhen stood up and walked to the edge of the pool.
Bending down, he scooped up a handful of water. The water was very cold, but it was nothing to a martial artist.
"If I want to cultivate the Long River Spear Art, the first thing I need to do is to grasp the profound meaning of the river water. Look at this water, it surges for a long time without stopping. As soon as one wave passed, the next wave would immediately follow. If this wave was used in a real battle, it would definitely be difficult for the enemy to withstand."
"Whoever grasps this profound meaning will be the king of protracted battles. Once the attack is unleashed, no matter who the opponent is, they will eventually be defeated by this endless stream of attacks. This is the Long River!"
"First, let me feel the power of the river's waves!"
