After chasing for about an hour, the GPS showed that the target was only 30 meters away. Lin Zhen put away the GPS and took out his Bright Silver Spear.
After crossing a branch, there were a few leaves in front of him, but nothing else.
However, Lin Zhen still noticed that the leaves were placed in an unnatural position. There should be a tree hole behind it.
Quietly approaching the leaves, Lin Zhen held his breath and listened carefully. As expected, he heard Fu Haisheng's cursing voice.
This person was quite depressed after being chased away by Lin Zhen, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could only vent his anger here. It probably hadn't been long.
"Damn Lin Zhen, you actually chased me out. Let's see how long you can stay there."
"Su Mingyue, that little bitch, what's so great about being a Saintess? She used her beauty to seduce other men, but she actually looked down on me. Don't you know that in this Stellar Fruit Tree, only Heaven's people are the true kings? "
"I'll go join Heaven's people and find someone to destroy you. Even if I have to tell them the location of the special star crystal, I'll still destroy you! Lin Zhen, just you wait, I'll cut you into pieces! "
"And Su Mingyue, wait until I catch you, I'll keep you by my side and play with you until you can't get out of bed for ten years. Let's see if you still remember your Lin Zhen …"
Lin Zhen's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. This Fu Haisheng actually found a special star crystal!
A special star crystal was something that could only be found by chance. It was also something that every martial artist in the Stellar Fruit Tree dreamed of. He didn't expect Fu Haisheng to find one.
However, from what he said, it was obvious that he didn't have the ability to obtain it. He was prepared to use this information as a price to lure Heaven's people back to deal with him.
Of course, Lin Zhen wouldn't give him the chance. He suddenly pulled away the leaves outside and shot out like lightning, nailing Fu Haisheng's shoulder to the inner wall of the tree hole.
"Ah …!" Fu Haisheng screamed in pain.
Lin Zhen grabbed his collar and looked him in the eyes. "Tell me, where is the special star crystal?"
Under the intense pain, Fu Haisheng's eyes shook. Obviously, he didn't want to tell the truth.
Lin Zhen didn't waste any time talking nonsense with him. He sent a mental attack into his mind and said again, "Tell me, where is the special star crystal?"
"In the middle of Tree Heart Lake."
Lin Zhen raised his hand and chopped at Fu Haisheng's neck with a hand chop. His hand chop was as hard as metal due to the Gold Qi, and it instantly severed Fu Haisheng's neck.
Fu Haisheng didn't even make a sound before he died on the spot.
After dealing with Fu Haisheng, Lin Zhen discovered that the brat did not even have a spatial ring. Lin Zhen placed his body in the tree hole, not even leaving any leaves for him. He believed that tonight, he would become a delicious meal for some mutated insect.
After dealing with Fu Haisheng, this hidden danger, Lin Zhen returned to the Ant Nest.
After returning, Su Mingyue had basically finished recuperating. However, her complexion hadn't completely recovered. Obviously, she hadn't completely recovered.
After seeing Lin Zhen, Su Mingyue said with some embarrassment, "Lin Zhen, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the Ant Nest with you tomorrow to pick the star crystal."
Lin Zhen walked forward and gently stroked her hair like a friend. "It's okay. You just have a good rest. I'll pick the star crystal alone."
Su Mingyue nodded and turned away with a slight blush. When there was no one else around, she wouldn't continue to play the role of Lin Zhen's girlfriend. Something like hugging her to sleep last night probably wouldn't happen again.
Of course, Lin Zhen never had such thoughts. It was just a temporary measure.
Seeing Su Mingyue blushing, Lin Zhen was shocked for a moment. Then, he chuckled. After getting familiar with Su Mingyue, he sometimes forgot that she was a girl. It seemed that he needed to be more careful.
They rested in the tree hole and didn't speak for the whole night. The next morning, seeing that Su Mingyue was still resting, Lin Zhen left the tree hole alone and went to the left branch.
Sun Tie and Luo Zhen were tactful and didn't follow. They also knew that it was useless to follow. The Ant Nest was a dangerous place. If they went there, they would die.
When Lin Zhen appeared, he attracted a lot of attention. People didn't tease Lin Zhen like they did yesterday. Yesterday, Lin Zhen had proven his strength in the arena. Although his victory was strange, people who couldn't see through people were even more fearful.
However, there were also a lot of bored people who followed behind. They wanted to see how Lin Zhen would pick the star crystal.
Lin Zhen didn't pay attention to anyone. He went along the left branch and soon came to the end.
The branch was about 50 meters above the ground of the Ant Nest. There was a vine on the side for people who weren't spirit readers to climb.
At the bottom of the branch, there was a large patch of purple flowers. It wasn't the same kind of flower as the star crystal, but another kind of strange flower. This flower emitted a strange fragrance. No insects wanted to get close to it, so there weren't any ants in the surrounding dozens of meters.
Further ahead was the Ant Nest. From this angle, the Ant Nest was made up of three small mountains piled up with dead branches and dust. The middle one was the largest, and the left and right were slightly smaller. The leftmost mountain was their territory. There was a clear dividing line in the middle of the mountains. No one was allowed to cross the line and go to other people's territories to look for star crystals.
On the left mountain, there were no more star crystals near the branch. They had all been picked by the previous people. If one wanted to pick star crystals, they would have to go further.
Lin Zhen looked around. The nearest star crystal was about 200 meters away. There were countless ants in the way. It wouldn't be easy to pass through.
Just as Lin Zhen was looking around, a warrior next to him said, "Lin Zhen, I advise you to be careful. This is not a place to play around. If you are not careful, you will die."
"That's right. This is the place with the most star crystals. It's also the place where most of the martial artists' bones are buried. I've been here for three years. Every year, hundreds of people come in. However, less than ten people leave every year. You should be careful."
"When you go down to pick star crystals, try to pick star crystals that you can use. Don't pick those that are not suitable for you to absorb. For example, you are now a fourth-grade warlord. It is best to pick comet crystals. Wait until you reach the intermediate fifth-grade before picking satellite crystals. This way, the effect will be maximized."
"Let me tell you a way to preserve the star crystal for a short period of time. That is, cut down the tree trunk where the flower blossoms and bring it back along with the star crystal. This way, the remaining energy in the tree trunk will allow the star crystal to exist for two to three hours."
"Do you see those piles of stones in the mountain? Those are actually caves. If you encounter danger and can't avoid it, you can go to the caves and hide. "
These people were kind-hearted. They told Lin Zhen some knowledge. Lin Zhen nodded and agreed. Of course, there were also many people who mocked and ridiculed him. Lin Zhen didn't listen at all.
Lin Zhen didn't plan to fly. It was his first time going down, so he would do it step by step.
After packing up the necessary things, he carefully observed the terrain for a while. After drawing up a route, Lin Zhen began to slide down from the tree vines.
The tree vines were very thick, but they were also very smooth. Lin Zhen easily slid down 50 meters and landed on the ground.
The ground was different from the hard tree trunks. It was filled with dust that had accumulated over the years, so it was soft when stepped on.
After smoothly descending, Lin Zhen tried to walk forward. When he looked back, he realized that Su Mingyue had followed him. She was dressed in white and stood in the crowd. She stared at Lin Zhen without blinking. When she saw Lin Zhen turn around, she waved her hand.
Lin Zhen smiled and turned to walk towards the ant nest.
After walking for about 20 meters, the ants in and out of the nest began to become restless.
After Lin Zhen walked for another 10 meters, the first ant finally launched an attack at Lin Zhen.
It was a flying ant. It flapped its huge translucent wings and opened its mouth as it swooped down from the sky!
Lin Zhen didn't panic. When the flying ant approached, the bright silver spear in his hand stabbed out like lightning!
Black blood splattered in the air. The flying ant's head was shattered by Lin Zhen's spear, and its body heavily slammed into the ground.
"Luckily, these ants aren't strong individually. As long as I don't attract a large group at once, there shouldn't be any danger."
When he arrived at the foot of the mountain on the left, Lin Zhen resolutely stepped on it.
He had already chosen the route. He would go from the mountainside. As long as he crossed this hill, there would be star crystals on the other side.
The moment he stepped onto the ant nest, four or five worker ants rushed at him from the left and right.
These worker ants weren't very aggressive. As long as one didn't get too close to them, they wouldn't attack.
Lin Zhen didn't put these four or five ants in his eyes. His bright silver spear shot out like lightning, easily taking them down one by one.
Just as he took another two steps forward, several more flying ants rushed down from the sky. Lin Zhen once again entered battle mode.
The ant nest was like this. The ants were almost endless. At the beginning, ordinary martial artists could still fight, but as they went on, the number of ants would increase. That was when the martial artist's strength was tested.
Lin Zhen took a few steps forward, and a group of ant corpses would fall beside him. Although he killed many, his speed wasn't fast.
Moreover, when Lin Zhen fought, not only were his moves fierce, causing the surrounding dust to fly, but he would also shout from time to time, attracting more and more ants.
"This brat is crazy. He doesn't know how to keep a low profile after coming to the ant nest. If this continues, he'll die of exhaustion."
"Who knows? He doesn't look like a reckless person. Why is he so brainless? "
"Miss, this is your boyfriend, right? I advise you to change your boyfriend soon. There's no future for you if you follow him."
Su Mingyue didn't even turn her head. She only lightly said, "I want to be with him even if I die."
The surrounding people were suddenly speechless. They thought to themselves, 'This girl is so beautiful, but she's a bit stubborn. She wants to hang herself on a tree. That silly brat has really found a treasure. If it were any other man, having such a beautiful girl so unswervingly in love with him, he would die of happiness.'
There were more and more ants, especially flying ants. A large group of them came, surrounding Lin Zhen from the sky and on the ground.
Just as everyone thought that Lin Zhen was about to die, Lin Zhen suddenly attacked!
"Torrential rain!"
