Early in the morning, Lin Zhen crawled out of the river. He was so tired that he was almost exhausted.
Lying on his back on the riverbank, his chest heaving up and down violently, Lin Zhen was in a very good mood.
After a day and night of experimentation, he had gone from being able to launch 30 waterfall attacks in a row to 300. This had increased by more than 10 times.
"Every attack is like a waterfall. Ordinary warlords would definitely find it difficult to resist such an attack. My Long Lightning River has already formed a preliminary combat power."
"However, I don't have to leave in a hurry. I'll stay here and cultivate for a while. At the very least, I have to let the two meteor crystals mature before I leave."
As he thought about the meteor crystals, Lin Zhen's spirits were lifted a little. Calculating the time, the meteor crystal on the right should be about to mature.
After adjusting his breathing for a while, Lin Zhen felt that his condition had recovered a little. He got up and left, once again heading to the location of the meteor crystals.
When he got there, Lin Zhen climbed up, lifted the cover he had set up, and saw that both meteor crystals were there.
The one on the right had already grown a lot. It should become a comet crystal in a few hours.
"Great. With this comet crystal, my strength will improve further. Although I can't enter the late stage of a fourth-grade warlord, I can take a big step forward on the road to the middle stage."
Seeing that the meteor crystals were about to mature, Lin Zhen didn't want to go back to his nest. He simply sat there and adjusted his breathing.
After a night of hard training, his dantian Qi had basically been exhausted. The adjustment just now was just a drop in the bucket. He needed some time to recover.
However, before he could do it once, Lin Zhen suddenly opened his eyes!
Danger!
A telekinesis master's five senses were very sharp. Even his sixth sense was sharper than that of ordinary people. He felt that something was staring at him.
"What is it? It seems to be some kind of predator. "
Lin Zhen's eyes looked around, trying to find the killer lurking in the dark among the green trees.
The surrounding verdant leaves swayed gently in the breeze. Lin Zhen looked for a while, but he didn't find anything.
He turned his head and looked behind him. There was nothing behind him, but the feeling of danger was getting stronger.
"It must be some kind of mutated insect, but what kind of insect can give me such a dangerous feeling? It's hiding nearby. Why can't I find it? "
While thinking, Lin Zhen's mind flashed with inspiration. He suddenly remembered the knowledge introduced in the survival manual.
Some insects could use the color of their bodies as camouflage and hide in places that were similar to their color. This way, it would be difficult for their prey to discover their presence, and it would be convenient for them to launch sneak attacks.
"I'm surrounded by green leaves, so this insect must be green as well. I overlooked this just now. Let's look again."
This time, Lin Zhen's attention was on these leaves. His Spiritual Reading Power began to spread out and the five throwing knives were all in the air, ready to face the sudden appearance of the predator.
"Over there!"
Suddenly, Lin Zhen saw a green tree-like object less than five meters away from him.
Its green body was almost merged with the leaves. Its length was more than five meters, and there was a pair of two-meter-long sharp knives on its forelimbs. Its black eyes would only blink occasionally.
It was a mutated mantis!
Among insects, mantises were definitely at the level of fierce generals. Its serrated mantis knife was definitely a killing machine. It could even easily dismember other mutated insects, let alone humans.
Just as Lin Zhen discovered this mutated mantis, the mantis also moved!
It moved silently, and its long body dismembered in front of Lin Zhen. A mantis knife was waved and slashed fiercely at Lin Zhen!
If Lin Zhen was cut by this knife, he would definitely be cut in half. Lin Zhen didn't dare to be careless. He quickly bent down and the mantis knife swept over his head.
The bright silver spear appeared in his hand. Lin Zhen immediately launched a counterattack!
"Torrential Rain!"
A wave of spear light rained over, but the mantis only used its mantis knife to block most of Lin Zhen's attacks. Some of the spear light hit the mantis' body, but only left a faint white mark.
"This thing's shell is so hard. Torrential Rain is useless!"
Seeing that the spear didn't succeed, the mantis swung its other mantis knife again. This time, its attack was as fast as lightning. This was the mantis' hunting instinct, speed!
Lin Zhen didn't even have time to dodge. Helplessly, the liquid metal instantly turned into armor. A large bulge appeared on his shoulder and blocked the mantis knife.
The powerful impact directly cut Lin Zhen off the branch. A large part of the liquid metal also caved in, but it quickly returned to its original state.
Lin Zhen only felt the blood in his chest churning. He couldn't help but bleed. Although his bones weren't broken, the impact still hurt his internal organs.
"What a strong mantis. It looks like I won't be able to defeat it without using the newly learned Long River."
Lin Zhen's five throwing knives clanged as they attacked the mantis. However, they couldn't even break the mantis' shell. These five throwing knives were bought by Lin Zhen a long time ago. They cost 200,000 each. Now, they couldn't keep up with the times.
The mantis nimbly jumped down from the tree and rushed towards Lin Zhen again.
"Beast! You really think I'm easy to bully! Come on! "
Lin Zhen was ruthless. His body was like a mountain. The bright silver spear in his hand drew a mysterious arc, and the spear rushed out like a waterfall!
"Dang!"
A loud crash echoed in the forest. The tree trunk under Lin Zhen's feet let out an unpleasant groan. It actually cracked open.
Although it was a small branch, it was still more than a meter thick. It actually couldn't block the mantis' attack!
The praying mantis also let out a shriek, and its body flew backwards.
The knife chopped down, but it didn't push Lin Zhen back at all!
Lin Zhen's attack succeeded. He didn't show any mercy. He took a big stride forward. Long River of Lightning!
A golden light flashed through the forest. The long spear's light was like the Milky Way hanging upside down, crashing down.
Although the mantis's knife blocked Lin Zhen's attack, it couldn't resolve the impact. It was once again sent flying by Lin Zhen, crashing into a tree trunk.
"Again! I'll take your life while you're down! "
Lin Zhen revolved his dantian Qi and attacked again.
After a dozen attacks, Lin Zhen finally found a flaw in the mantis's defense. He pierced its head with his spear!
With a flick of his spear, a crystal flew out of the mantis's head. It was about to fall down the tree, but Lin Zhen sucked it into his interspatial ring.
After losing the crystal it relied on to survive, the mantis could no longer stand. It twitched a few times before dying completely. It went from being a predator to being Lin Zhen's prey.
"I've finally dealt with this troublesome fellow. This is the scariest insect I've ever encountered in the forest. If I hadn't just learned Long River, I wouldn't have been its opponent."
Lin Zhen tore off his tattered clothes. This mantis was too difficult to deal with. His clothes had been torn apart during the battle.
After throwing away his clothes, Lin Zhen sat on the ground. He felt his limbs go soft and his chest was very uncomfortable.
Although the mantis's knife didn't give him a serious shock, he still needed some time to recover.
After lying on the tree trunk for a full three hours, Lin Zhen stood up and meditated for another two hours. Only then did he recover half of his strength.
"Looks like I won't be able to practice Long River tonight. I'd better hurry up and collect the star crystals. As long as I absorb the energy in the star crystals, I'll be able to fully recover. My realm will also improve a lot."
Lin Zhen climbed up. He was only wearing a pair of boxer shorts. He was too lazy to change his clothes from his interspatial ring. He climbed up the blossoming tree trunk again.
When he returned, one of the meteor crystals had indeed evolved. It had just evolved into a comet crystal. It dragged a long tail and floated above the stamen.
"Great, this is my second comet crystal. I'll take it back to my nest to absorb. After all, this place isn't very safe."
Lin Zhen didn't immediately collect the comet crystal. Instead, he dismembered the mantis's corpse. He used liquid metal to turn it into a saw. First, he cut off the mantis's two giant knives and stored them in his interspatial ring.
The mantis's knives didn't have a single crack even after he hit them with Long River. This was the hardest part of the mantis's body. Its quality was much better than the Bright Silver Spear.
In addition, Lin Zhen also removed one of the mantis's legs. This leg was as thick as a pillar. He could use it to make a barbecue. Although there was no seasoning, it was still better than eating beef jerky and compressed biscuits every day.
After doing all this, Lin Zhen collected the comet crystal.
After collecting the comet crystal, it had to be absorbed within ten minutes. Lin Zhen immediately carried the mantis's legs and quickly returned to his nest.
After passing through a few tree trunks, the sound of water splashing could be heard. Lin Zhen waded across the river and returned to the nest.
However, as soon as he climbed out of the river, he saw something that shocked him.
Su Mingyue was wearing a white Divine Official dress with a golden ribbon tied around her waist. Her delicate body was slightly squatting as she inspected her nest.
Lin Zhen didn't have time to tidy it up when he left. The nest was still covered with flower petals. It was obvious that someone was living there.
Su Mingyue heard the sound and looked up. Immediately, her beautiful face turned red. She turned her head and said, "Shameless!"
Lin Zhen was stunned. His first reaction when he saw Su Mingyue was to run, but where could he run to? It wasn't easy to find such a place. He didn't want to leave.
Just as he was thinking about how to deal with it, he heard her call him shameless. Lin Zhen looked down and immediately felt awkward.
