Walking alone on the frozen snow mountain, Lin Zhen was deep in thought.
He still remembered, when he met Adams and the others, someone said that his parents were captured by the Church, and Yue Er even agreed to Yan Huang's proposal.
Lin Zhen didn't believe that Yue Er would agree to such a thing, but what about his parents? Were they captured by the Church or not?
Unfortunately, there was no internet here, so Lin Zhen couldn't verify this matter.
This matter couldn't be confirmed, and Lin Zhen couldn't leave the City of Ancient Gods for the time being. If he went to the Church now, he definitely wouldn't be able to return.
Feeling a few burning wounds on his body, Lin Zhen thought about how Yan Huang immediately fought with Holof after being fully equipped with Holy Artifacts. He deeply felt the importance of Holy Artifacts.
If he also had a full body of Holy Artifacts, then the battle wouldn't have ended like that.
After searching inside the Interspatial Ring, Lin Zhen found another top quality Astral Spear, but he felt that it wasn't very convenient. He needed a Holy Artifact now.
After climbing up the vast snow mountain, the temperature here had already dropped to negative 80 degrees.
Lin Zhen's Astral Artifact had already been changed to a Flame Armor Set, and he released firepower to block the bone-piercing cold.
Lin Zhen encountered a quasi-SS Rank Snow Demon. Lin Zhen didn't know how this thing mutated, but it definitely shouldn't have appeared on Earth.
A minute later, this almost humanoid Snow Demon was stabbed to death by Lin Zhen, and the crystal was taken out.
"I can already fight a quasi-SS Rank Mutated Beast, but this isn't enough. My goal is to be able to kill an SS Rank."
Lin Zhen released Xiao Nuan. Xiao Nuan was of the fire attribute, so it couldn't adapt to the extreme cold, so it could only release firepower continuously.
After Xiao Nuan swallowed the Snow Demon's corpse, its body grew a little longer. Lin Zhen looked at its shivering appearance, and put it away.
When they first entered the South Pole, they could still see some people. However, as Lin Zhen went deeper into the South Pole, there were fewer and fewer people in the South. Later, they could not be seen at all.
After climbing the highest peak of the snowy mountain, Lin Zhen suddenly felt a bone-piercing cold that almost froze him.
He thought that the snow mountain was cold enough, but now he knew that it was still warm because the cold air from the South Pole was blocked by the snow mountain.
Looking south from the top of the snowy mountain, streaks of light fell from the sky in the southernmost area, forming a curtain of light that looked like the Milky Way hanging upside down.
Clusters of jellyfish-like clouds floated in the air. These kinds of clouds could only be formed when the temperature was below -83 degrees Celsius.
Now that night had arrived, the jellyfish clouds were still illuminated by the sunlight. It looked a little strange.
Lin Zhen's Dark Star spun, and streaks of firepower entered his astral weapon to resist the extreme cold. His eyes did not blink as he looked at the sunlight and jellyfish clouds.
"I'm almost there. The sunlight there is the Aurora Australis. The place where the Aurora Australis falls is the South Pole. I just need to get there and I can go to the third floor."
Large amounts of snow and wind blew in his face, and Lin Zhen found it difficult to move forward. Step by step, he left a footprint in his wake.
After walking for a while, Lin Zhen's armor was covered in a layer of frost. It could not resist the extreme cold.
Lin Zhen did not use Flame Heart. Instead, he let the Dark Star's firepower out again, slowly melting the frost on the armor.
He walked from the snowy mountain to the plains in front of him. He crossed a frozen river, and a house made completely of ice appeared in front of him.
The house was piled up like a small villa, and the words "Ice Palace" were written on it.
Lin Zhen knew that this was the Ice Palace that Dongfang Jun mentioned. It was the territory of the Hua Xia martial artist, Luo Yun. However, he did not want to go in. He was anxious to find the sacred weapon and the Earth Elemental Crystal.
However, just as he passed by the entrance of the Ice Palace, the door suddenly opened.
Dongfang Jun stood in the Ice Palace and smiled at Lin Zhen. "Brother Lin, why don't you want to enter? You're making me lose face. "
Seeing Dongfang Jun, Lin Zhen naturally couldn't continue walking forward. He could only smile and walk over. "Brother Dongfang, I'm just anxious to go to the third level. I don't want to disturb you if I can."
Dongfang Jun came over and pulled Lin Zhen into the Ice Palace. "There are still many things to take note of when going to the third floor. Come in and talk. People can freeze to death outside."
Lin Zhen followed in. After entering, he immediately felt his body warm up.
The temperature inside the Ice Palace was about -30 to -40 degrees Celsius, but compared to outside, it was like heaven.
There was a living room inside. After entering, there were seven or eight people inside. They were all Star Realm experts.
"Everyone, I'm sure everyone knows of his great reputation. However, I still have to solemnly introduce him. This is a good friend of mine, Dongfang Jun, a genius martial artist from the Fierce Gale Academy, Lin Zhen. He's the first expert in history to advance to the Stars Ranking with the strength of the Quasi-Star Realm. He's currently ranked 51 on the Meteor Ranking.
After hearing Dongfang Jun's introduction, everyone in the room revealed respectful expressions.
The Stars Ranking was a symbol of strength. Lin Zhen was now a Star Realm expert. If he did not enter the Stars Ranking, no one would respect him too much even if he defeated a Star Realm expert. After all, he was not on the Stars Ranking.
However, it was different if he was on the Stars Ranking. There were 18 people on the Heavenly Star Ranking, 36 on the Dark Star Ranking, and 72 on the Meteor Ranking. These 126 people represented the strongest people in the world. Lin Zhen was currently ranked 51st on the Meteor Ranking. His strength was about to enter the world's top 100.
Moreover, he was only a Star Realm expert. Once he advanced to the Star Realm, he would definitely enter the top 100, or even the top 50.
A person sitting in the middle stood up. "Dongfang, we all know about Lin Zhen. Not long ago, Brother Lin actually eliminated three Stars Ranking experts in a row and jumped to the 51st position. In my opinion, Brother Lin already has the strength to enter the top 30 of the Meteor Ranking."
Dongfang Jun laughed loudly. It was obvious that he had a good relationship with Lin Zhen, which made him feel proud.
He turned to Lin Zhen and said, "Lin Zhen, let me introduce you. This is Luo Yun. I'm sure you've seen him on the Meteor Ranking. He's a super expert ranked third on the Meteor Ranking. He's very likely to enter the Dark Star Ranking."
"Hehe, it's not that easy to enter the Dark Star Ranking. Come, let's not talk about this first. Today is the first time I've seen Brother Lin. Moreover, he's also a Chinese martial artist. Let's do our best as hosts."
As he spoke, Luo Yun looked at the surrounding Star Realm experts. "Brothers, have the food and wine been prepared?"
"It's been ready for a long time. Dongfang said that Lin Zhen would definitely come here, so we prepared it early."
"Alright, let's begin!"
Luo Yun waved his hand, and Dongfang Jun pulled Lin Zhen into the dining room.
The dining room was also a room carved out of ice. There was actually a hotpot on the table in the center, causing the temperature in the room to rise by a lot. Even a normal person could barely eat.
Everyone was a martial artist, and an expert at that. Naturally, they didn't care about the low temperature and took their seats.
This time, the seating was a bit more particular. Luo Yun was the strongest person present, and he was also the host. Naturally, he sat in the middle. On his left was Dongfang Jun, and on his right was Lin Zhen.
Dongfang Jun was also on the Stars Ranking now, ranked 33rd. He was older than Lin Zhen and used to be the Hall Master of Fierce Wind, so it was no problem for him to sit here.
As for Lin Zhen, a young man who had just turned 21 years old, he sat in the third position. The other Star Realm experts felt that it was only natural.
He was an expert on the Stars Ranking, and his status was definitely different from those of them who weren't on the Stars Ranking. This position was definitely his.
Someone took out a large bottle of strong wine and filled everyone's cups. Then, he put down his cup and said, "Come, everyone, welcome Brother Lin to the Ice Palace. It's fate that brought us together. From now on, we'll all be friends. Cheers!"
"Cheers, cheers!"
Everyone raised their cups and drank it in one gulp.
To be able to eat hotpot and drink strong wine in this world of ice and snow was indeed a kind of enjoyment. Lin Zhen felt warm and comfortable.
After eating something, Luo Yun said, "Brother Lin, we've heard about you. Although there's no network here, you can still use the walkie-talkie to communicate on the second level. Moreover, there's a network signal on the third level. We've all watched your video. To be able to fight with Yan Huang on the Dark Star Ranking to such an extent, I can only say that I'm impressed."
Lin Zhen smiled and nodded. It seemed that the upper part of the ship could receive the signal. This was quite convenient.
Luo Yun continued, "But let me give you a suggestion. Brother Lin, although your strength is strong enough, your equipment is still lacking. If you had a full set of Sacred Equipment, then no matter if you were facing Yan Huang or that strange looking Holof, you wouldn't be in such a sorry state like you were at the end."
Lin Zhen nodded. "That's right. I only have one Sacred Equipment armor. If I had a full set of equipment, even Yan Huang would have a hard time shaking my defense."
Luo Yun clapped his hands. "That's right. That's why I want to discuss something with you."
"What is it?" Lin Zhen was stunned.
"It's very simple. You, me, and Dongfang. The three of us will go to the third level and have some fun. At the very least, we'll try to get a full set of Sacred Equipment. How about it?"
"The three of us will go to the third level?"
"That's right. Don't be fooled by the fact that I've occupied the ice palace on the second floor. That's because I'm unable to gain a foothold on the third floor, so I had no choice but to stay on the second floor. Recently, Dong Fang came over and the two of us joined forces to pass through the third floor. However, there's an SS rank Cerberus at the entrance to the third floor. The two of us have tried to pass through it several times, but to no avail. Furthermore, my subordinates aren't on the Stars Ranking, so they don't have the qualifications to enter the third floor. This time, Brother Lin, you're here.
Now that Brother Lin is here, Brother Lin, we should give it a try. If we don't deal with this Cerberus, we won't be able to enter the third level. We won't be able to obtain the treasures there. Without Sacred Equipment, we won't be able to compete in the Stars Ranking. It will be very difficult for Brother Lin to save his parents. "
