Chapter 184: Chapter 184: Gale Young Master (Guaranteed 2nd Update)

Within the beehive, Lin Zhen sat near the huge mound of soil, never leaving it, day or night.

Whenever a Constant Star Crystal appeared, Lin Zhen would pick it first. The mutated bees had already lost their ability to pose a substantial threat to him.

In the extradimensional space, he had compressed the Dantian air to half of the ninefold. He aimed to compress the Dantian air even further in the next few days, reaching a level ten times its intensity.

About 25 to 30 Constant Star Crystals could be produced by the mound of soil each day. Although they were not as good as those in the extradimensional space, at least they could still improve his skills.

Apart from here, Constant Star Crystals were also continuously sent from the Ant Nest. All the crystals harvested from these two places were now provided for Lin Zhen’s use.

Lin Zhen had made a rough estimate, he would need about 500 Star Crystals to advance to ten times compression.

Within ten days, at most 300 could be produced by the Beehive and about 100 from the Ant Nest. It was challenging to promote oneself in ten days by combining both places’ output.

At this moment, however, they had no other choice. Many martial artists went into the forest, hoping to find new Constant Star Crystals for Lin Zhen, aside from these two places.

After all, Lin Zhen’s breakthrough would determine the outcome of the counterattack on Sky Dome. These martial artists didn’t dare to slack off, hoping to completely change the situation within the Star Fruit Tree by taking advantage of Lin Zhen’s rise to power.

On the first day, the beehive produced 27 and the Ant Nest produced nine; in addition to three collected from the outside, Lin Zhen absorbed a total of 39 crystals.

On the second day, the harvest was good, with 31 from the beehive, twelve from the Ant Nest, and seven collected from the outside, amounting to a total of 50 crystals.

The third day was similar to the second day, with 48 crystals in total.

On the fourth day, although the production from the beehive and Ant Nest was still good, only one Star Crystal was collected from the outside, totaling 40 crystals.

On the fifth day, 35 were produced by the beehive and Ant Nest combined, but not a single Star Crystal was collected from the outside.

Not only were the crystals not collected, but many martial artists who went out to collect Star Crystals did not return either.

Originally, after Lin Zhen’s integration, there were 82 people in the beehive and 103 people in the Ant Nest, totaling 185 people.

Apart from Lin Zhen’s cultivation and Jiang Huai and others’ collection efforts, the remaining 180 people were all sent out to collect Star Crystals. Yet, five days later, the total number of people had dropped to 140!

It meant that within these few days, 45 people had already left.

On the evening of the sixth day, after absorbing 37 Star Crystals and counting the number of people, the total number of people in the two places had dropped to 105.

40 more people had disappeared!

When Jiang Huai and Lou Qingfeng came to give Lin Zhen the Star Crystals, they approached him, “Idol, there seems to be something wrong.”

“What’s the situation?”

“The Little Overlord of Sky Dome has sent out the news, announcing that he is going to hold a wedding with Su Mingyue. Anyone who’s willing to send their blessings can join Sky Dome and immediately receive five Constant Star Crystals and 500 million in cash. This temptation is too huge, and many people have already joined them due to the temptation.”

“That means those people who went out may not even think too much about collecting Star Crystals and are contemplating joining Sky Dome.”

“It should be like that. Now, there are only 100 people combined in both places.

If another two days pass, I’m afraid there won’t even be 50 left.”

“Haha! That Yue Feng sure is generous. Can he actually afford that much money? 80 people have gone, that’s 400 billion in cash. I don’t believe he can fit that much money into the Star Fruit Tree.” Li Changying interjected, obviously despising the actions of the other martial artists.

Zhao Xiaoman also said, “Yeah, it’s just empty talk. Those martial artists who went can’t even get the money, and at best, they only get a few Star Crystals. How can they be so foolish?”

To their surprise, Lou Qingfeng shook his head, “You’re all wrong. As long as the Little Overlord agrees, the 500 million cash is nothing. Even billions can be offered. He won’t go back on his word afterward.”

“Oh! Why do you say that?” Jiang Huai asked.

“Haha, I just heard about it as well. You might not know the Little Overlord’s true identity yet. But with this alone, let alone billions, he won’t tarnish his reputation.”

“What kind of identity is so powerful?”

“The son of the master of the Capital City Liefeng Martial Hall. You tell me, is it powerful or not?” Lou Qingfeng finally revealed the truth.

“Liefeng Martial Hall? Isn’t that the number one martial hall in the whole country? The Capital City Liefeng is the headquarters of Gale, and the master of it is the master of the entire country….Yue Feng is actually the son of the national Liefeng leader?” Jiang Huai was suddenly stunned. He came from the Demon Capital Gale. In this case, wasn’t he also a member of Yue Feng’s family martial hall?

Everyone, including Lin Zhen, was shocked. Yue Feng was actually the son of the head of the Gale Martial Arts Hall?

Zhao Xiaoman asked doubtfully, “Isn’t Chen Fenglie the head of the Gale Martial Arts Hall? The number one master in the world, could he be Yue Feng’s father? But why do they have different surnames?”

There was no need for Lou Qingfeng to answer this question, as Jiang Huai directly said, “Chen Fenglie is the founder of Gale, and he is indeed the number one master now, but he is only the honorary head of the hall. He has long stopped handling affairs to wholeheartedly pursue the peak of the Martial Way. The head of the Capital City Liefeng Martial Hall is Chen Fenglie’s good friend

Yue Zhenhua, who took over more than a decade ago.”

After finishing, Jiang Huai sighed, “Some people may be able to resist the temptation of money, but who would dare to oppose the Little Overlord once they hear his identity? After all, we still have to leave the Star Fruit Tree and return to the outside world someday. Offending Gale isn’t looking for death. Let alone killing our way to the Sky Dome, it’s already good enough if they don’t immediately counterattack us.”

Zhao Xiaoman looked at Jiang Huai at this moment and asked, “You are also from Gale, do you have this idea?”

Jiang Huai quickly raised his hand, “Don’t falsely accuse me, but honestly, if it wasn’t for being with Brother Lin, I might also stand by and watch. But now that it’s him, I’ll fight alongside him no matter what, until the end.”

Lin Zhen nodded slightly, then asked Jiang Huai, “What is the current situation outside?”

“What else could it be? People’s hearts are unsettled; seeing that no Star Crystals have been collected in the past few days, it’s clear.”

Li Changying said, “These people are also conflicted; they want to overthrow the rule of the Sky Dome but fear the power and influence of the Overlord and are tempted by money. Even if these people take the stage, it’s hard to say how much power they can exert.”

Lin Zhen thought for a moment, then stood up, “In that case, it’s necessary to go out and talk to them.”

As he finished speaking, Lin Zhen got up and left the beehive, with Jiang Huai and the others following closely behind, not knowing his intentions.

They walked all the way to the tree hole area of the beehive, where the remaining dozens of beehive martial artists were gathered, talking in small groups about who knows what. Seeing Lin Zhen arriving, they all got up, but their expressions were somewhat awkward.

Lin Zhen stood in front of the crowd and cleared his throat, “Everyone, I know what has happened these past few days. I won’t say more than that. Everyone’s character is different, their pursuits are different, and the paths they must walk are different. I respect each of your choices.”

Some martial artists seemed to want to say something but were stopped by Lin Zhen waving his hand, “No need to say anything, now I give you all a choice; those who are willing to go to the Sky Dome can leave now. I, Lin Zhen, will never stop you.”

The martial artists in the field looked at each other, hesitated for a while, and then someone made a move.

After someone left, others followed in droves.

Some martial artists came to Lin Zhen when they left, “Lin Zhen, it’s not that we don’t support you, it’s just that this matter has exceeded our capabilities. You should continue to cultivate in the beehive; we won’t go to the Sky Dome when we leave, and we’ll come back after you leave.”

Lin Zhen nodded slightly, thinking it was quite good that they had such a mindset of not wanting to harm either side.

Many martial artists chose to go to the Sky Dome, but about thirty-four people left the beehive, either going outside or going out to wait for the matter’s results. No matter the outcome, they should still have a place to cultivate.

Whether it was Little Overlord Yue Feng or Lin Zhen, their cultivation had almost reached its peak, and their davs at the Star Fruit Tree were limited.

Within ten minutes, all the martial artists in the beehive had left.

At this time, Lin Zhen looked at Jiang Huai and Lou Qingfeng, “You guys go to the Ant Nest again and repeat my words verbatim. It’s estimated that Ma Mingxing might not want to let anyone go there, but forcing them to stay is useless.”

Jiang Huai and Lou Qingfeng nodded, stood up, and headed for the Ant Nest.

Later, Li Changying and Zhao Xiaoman stayed with Lin Zhen, worried that he might be unhappy.

However, Lin Zhen didn’t care at all. Instead, he returned to the beehive and continued to absorb Star Crystals.

The next day, Jiang Huai came back and told Lin Zhen that the people in the Ant Nest had left too. At the moment, only Lou Qingfeng, Ma Mingxing, and Brother Guang were still at the Ant Nest. Even Sun Tie had left.

Lin Zhen nodded, finished absorbing a Star Crystal, and then looked up.

Above the layers of tree branches was the Sky Dome.

“Today should be the day when Yue Feng holds the banquet to see off Ye Lanshan, right?” Lin Zhen suddenly spoke.

“Yes, it seems to be quite lively over at Sky Dome now; I guess the banquet should be starting soon.” Jiang Huai sat beside Lin Zhen, and inside the beehive was empty, with only the bees buzzing tirelessly.

“After this meal, Ye Lanshan would probably leave the Star Fruit Tree tomorrow, or at the latest, the day after.”

Lin Zhen said and then turned to face his teammates, “Tomorrow, I will leave the beehive and head for the Sky Dome.”

“Good; we’ll go together!” Several people said one after another.

However, Lin Zhen waved his hand, “You all stay; this time, I will go alone..”
