Age of Evolution# Chapter 139 – Shameless Lin Zhen (Fourth Update)

Chapter 139: Chapter 139: Shameless Lin Zhen (Fourth Update)

In the early morning, Lin Zhen climbed out of the river, exhausted and almost completely drained of strength.

Lying on his back on the riverbank, his chest heaved violently, but Lin Zhen’s mood was very good.

After a day and night of testing, he had gone from initially being able to launch only thirty consecutive waterfall attacks to now three hundred, a full ten times increase.

“Each strike is like a waterfall, such an attack strength is definitely difficult for ordinary War Generals to resist. My Lightning River has initially formed its combat power.”

“But I don’t need to leave in a hurry. I should continue training here for some time and at least let both meteorite crystals mature before leaving.”

Thinking of the meteorite crystals, Lin Zhen’s spirits lifted a bit. Calculating the time, the meteorite crystal on the right should be about to mature.

After performing breathing exercises on the spot for a while, Lin Zhen felt a little more recovered, so he got up and headed to the location of the meteorite crystals again.

When he arrived, Lin Zhen climbed up, lifted the cover he had laid down, and saw both meteorite crystals present.

And the one on the right had grown quite a bit larger, as it should become a comet crystal in a few hours.

“Great! With this comet crystal in hand, my strength will increase even further. Although I still can’t enter the late stage of the four-level War General, I can take a big step forward in the middle stage.”

Seeing that the meteorite crystal was about to mature, Lin Zhen no longer wanted to return to his small den and simply meditated on the spot to adjust his breathing.

After a night of hard training, his dantian was almost entirely depleted. The earlier breathing exercise was just a drop in the bucket; he would need more time to recover.

But before he could even practice once, Lin Zhen suddenly opened his eyes!

Danger!

The senses of a Spiritual Mind Master are extremely keen, and their sixth sense is even more sensitive than ordinary people’s. Lin Zhen felt as if something was watching him.

“What is it? It seems to be some kind of predator.”

Lin Zhen’s eyes scanned his surroundings, trying to find the lurking killer amidst the green trees.

Surrounded by lush green leaves swaying gently in the breeze, Lin Zhen looked around for a while but found nothing.

He turned his head to look behind him, where there was also nothing, but the sense of danger grew even stronger.

“It must be some kind of mutant insect, but what kind of insect could give me such a dangerous feeling? It’s lurking nearby, but I can’t find it.”

As he thought, a flash of inspiration crossed Lin Zhen’s mind, and he suddenly remembered the knowledge introduced in the survival manual.

Some insects can use the color of their bodies as camouflage, lurking in places with similar colors, making it difficult for their prey to detect them, and facilitating their sneak attacks.

“All around me are green leaves, so this insect must be green as well. I overlooked this point just now. Let me look again.”

This time, Lin Zhen focused his attention on the leaves, and his mental power began to spread out. The five flying knives also took to the air, ready to face the suddenly appearing predator at any time.

“There!”

Suddenly, Lin Zhen saw a green, tree branch-like creature less than five meters away from him.

Its green body almost blended in with the leaves, stretching more than five meters in length, with a pair of sharp blades over two meters long on its forelimbs. Its black eyes would occasionally blink slightly.

It was a mutant mantis!

In the insect world, the mantis is undoubtedly a fierce general. Its serrated mantis blades are lethal weapons, capable of easily dismembering even other mutant insects, let alone humans.

Just as Lin Zhen discovered the mutant mantis, it made its move!

With a silent leap, its long body swiftly approached Lin Zhen, and a mantis blade swung fiercely at him!

If struck by this blade, Lin Zhen would surely be cut in half. Not daring to be careless, he quickly bent forward, and the mantis blade passed over his head.

The bright silver spear appeared in his hand, and Lin Zhen immediately launched a counterattack!

“Storm!”

A rain-like burst of spear light shot towards the mantis, but it only used its mantis blade to block most of Lin Zhen’s attacks. Some of the spear lights hit the mantis’s body, leaving only shallow white marks.

“This thing’s shell is so hard, the storm is useless!”

After missing the first attack, the mantis’s other mantis blade swung over with a speed that was like lightning. This was the mantis’s hunting instinct: speed!

Lin Zhen didn’t even have time to dodge. Out of desperation, the liquid metal instantly formed a suit of armor, and a large bump on the shoulder blocked the mantis’s blade.

The powerful impact cut Lin Zhen from the tree branch, and the liquid metal was dented by a large chunk but quickly restored its original shape.

Lin Zhen felt his chest churning with blood and energy, and blood couldn’t help but seep from the corners of his mouth. Although his bones weren’t broken, the internal impact had injured his internal organs.

“What a powerful mantis, it seems I’ll have to use my newly learned Long River skill. ”

Lin Zhen’s five throwing knives clinked and struck the mantis, but they couldn’t even break its shell. These five throwing knives were bought by Lin Zhen a long time ago, at the cost of 200,000 each, but they are now outdated. The mantis quickly leaped off the tree trunk and rushed towards Lin Zhen again.

“You beast! You think I’m easy to bully? Come on!”

Lin Zhen gritted his teeth, and the mountain-like realm instantly opened. The bright silver spear in his hand drew a mysterious arc, and the Waterfall attack burst out!

“Clang! ”

The huge impact echoed through the woods, and the tree trunk under Lin Zhen issued a harsh groan, actually splitting from the force of impact.

Although it was just a small branch, it was over a meter thick and couldn’t withstand the mantis’ attack!

The mantis also let out a scream, its body flying backward.

Lin Zhen didn’t get pushed back at all with one strike!

Lin Zhen immediately followed up with his successful attack, not giving the mantis any chance. He performed the Lightning River!

A golden lightning flashed through the forest, and the spear’s aura was like an upside-down Milky Way crashing down.

Though the Mantis blade managed to block Lin Zhen’s attack, it couldn’t withstand the impact and was sent flying once more, smashing into a tree trunk.

“Again! I’ll end you while you’re weak!”

Lin Zhen unleashed his remaining Dantian energy, striking fiercely.

After more than a dozen continuous attacks, Lin Zhen finally found a weakness in the mantis, puncturing its head with a spear!

With a flick of his spear, a crystal flew out of the mantis’ head and was about to fall to the ground but was caught mid-air by Lin Zhen and directly stored into his Space Ring.

Without the crystal to rely on for survival, the mantis couldn’t stand up anymore, convulsed a few times, and died completely, turning from a hunter into Lin Zhen’s prey.

“Finally, I’ve dealt with this troublesome guy. This is the most terrifying insect

I’ve encountered in the jungle. If I hadn’t just learned the Long River technique, I wouldn’t have been a match for it.”

Lin Zhen ripped off his tattered clothing, leaving him nearly naked. The mantis had been extremely difficult to deal with, and his clothes had been torn to shreds during the battle.

After throwing away his clothes, Lin Zhen sat down on the ground, feeling weak in his limbs and extremely uncomfortable in his chest.

Though the shock from the mantis’ attack wasn’t severe, he needed some time to recover.

After lying sprawled out on the tree trunk for three hours, Lin Zhen stood up and spent another two hours adjusting his breath and meditating, only managing to restore half of his strength.

“It seems I won’t be able to practice Long River tonight. I’d better collect my Star Crystals quickly and absorb their energy. As long as I absorb the energy within the crystals, my strength will be fully restored, and my realm will progress quite a bit.”

Lin Zhen got up, wearing only shorts, too lazy to change into new clothing, and climbed the flowering tree trunk again.

Upon returning, he found a Meteor Crystal on the tree had indeed advanced and evolved into a Comet Crystal, dragging its long tail while floating above the flower bud.

“Great, this is my second Comet Crystal. I need to bring it back to my nest to absorb it, as this place still isn’t very safe. ”

Instead of picking the Comet Crystal immediately, Lin Zhen came down to dismember the mantis’ body first. He used liquid metal to turn his spear into a saw and removed its two large Mantis blades, storing them into his Space Ring.

With this done, Lin Zhen picked the Comet Crystal.

After picking the Comet Crystal, it needed to be absorbed within ten minutes. Lin Zhen immediately picked up the mantis leg and quickly headed towards his nest.

He crossed a few tree trunks and waded through a river before returning to his nest.

However, as soon as he climbed out of the water, he saw something that stunned him.

Su Mingyue was wearing a white priestess long skirt, her slender body slightly crouched, examining Lin Zhen’s nest. The nest was still covered in flower petals, and it was obvious that someone had lived there.

Hearing the noise, Su Mingyue looked up and her beautiful face turned bright red. She turned away and muttered, “Shameless!”

Lin Zhen hesitated for a moment. His first reaction when he saw Su Mingyue was to run, but he couldn’t find a place to run to. Finally, he settled on a relatively good place, and he didn’t want to leave it.

While thinking about how to deal with her _ he heard her call him shameless

Lin Zhen looked down and suddenly found himself in an awkward situation.

He had thrown away his clothes and hadn’t changed into new ones, leaving him wearing only a pair of shorts. Moreover, he had just waded through a river, making his wet shorts cling to his body, and a certain large part of him was as clear as a snake. It was almost poking out from the shorts’ edge..
