A Risky Gamble
Yue Feng was also startled by Lin Zhen's unpredictable Teleport, but fortunately, he was protected by the armor he was wearing, which could even make him invisible.
"Haha! Didn't expect that, did you? Not only do I have Star Artifact Long Spear, but I also have Star Artifact Armor protecting me. Lin Zhen, let's see how you can still use your Teleport. Prepare to die!"
Seeing Yue Feng's Star Artifact Armor, Lin Zhen immediately felt a headache coming on.
Star Artifact are weapons used by Star Crystal Warrior. Occasionally, some may end up in the human world, but they are usually in the hands of experts.
Take Li Tianhao for example. His father, Li Wanfeng, was barely considered a master, and he was able to obtain a Star Artifact for his son.
But compared to Yue Feng's father, Yue Zhenhua Li Wanfeng nothing.
Yue Zhenhua is the owner of the Raging Wind school in Capital City. He was already a peak War God level expert a few years ago, and some people even say that Yue Zhenhua may have reached the Stellar Realm.
Lin Zhen doesn't know if Yue Zhenhua is Stellar Realm now, but he knows that Yue Zhenhua was indeed a Star Realm Warrior later on.
The War God masters rarely operate in other places; they all go to explore the Ancient God Ruins, so it's normal for some of them to have Star Artifact.
As one of the best among the War God, Yue Zhenhua naturally possessed Star Artifact. To ensure his son's safety within the Star Fruit Tree, he not only had Ding Sheng and the Four Gods protect him, but also gave his son Star Artifact. This Long Spear and armor were enough to give ordinary War God a headache.
Although Yue Feng's head and feet were not protected by the Star Artifact Armor, it was unrealistic for Lin Zhen to use Teleport to strike his weak points while he was moving at high speed.
After all, Lin Zhen still needs a little reaction time after Teleport to a certain space, and this time is a fatal weakness.
Therefore, Teleport is not omnipotent and is not enough for Lin Zhen to crush Yue Feng, who has completed Ninefold Compression, consumed four Special Star Crystal, and advanced to the War God.
Left with no other choice, Lin Zhen raised his Bright Silver Spear and unleashed his full power, engaging Yue Feng in a fierce battle.
The Rainstorm Long River unleashed their skills in succession, sometimes flying and sometimes Teleport, sometimes bursting out Gold Qi rays, and sometimes defending with Immovable as a Mountain. The battle between the two was so intense that it was unimaginable.
The battle raged from outside the hall into the hall, with continuous booming and colliding sounds. Strengths of energy emanated from the hall and relentlessly struck the main structure. The wooden structure could not withstand such impacts and began to collapse.
Rumble!
A burst of energy struck a wooden pillar, and the main hall finally collapsed with a roar.
"Lin Zhen! Come up to heaven!"
Yue Feng got carried away with the killing spree, stepping on his shield and rising into the air. He was also a Mind Power Master and had even consumed Mental Power Star Crystal. Now that he had advanced to the War God, his Mental Power level was exactly the same as Lin Zhen's, both at the Early Dark Gold.
Under such circumstances, Lin Zhen dared not use his Mental Impact rashly, and instead stepped on his shield to ascend into the air.
The two transformed into streaks of light, constantly battling and circling above the palace complex. Occasionally, they collided, producing deafening booms. Their battle was even more awe-inspiring than the large-scale battle involving hundreds of people below.
After fighting for a while, Ye Lanshan felt that she was running out of breath.
Although she and Dong Shencai had killed many martial artists together, these martial artists had all compressed their Dantian Qi. In addition, she had been inside the Star Fruit Tree for two days, and her qi was being rejected by the tree, and her meridians were not smooth. She could no longer stay.
"Shencai, this won't do. We can't stay here any longer. No one else can get involved in Lin Zhen and Yue Feng's fight. Let's go."
"Yeah, I can't hold on any longer either."
Although Ye Lanshan was unable to kill the group of compressed martial artists in front of her, no one could stop her from leaving if she wanted to.
With Dong Shencai by her side, she fought her way out and escaped from the Sky Dome.
Dong Shencai also completed the seventh compression and didn't want to stay here any longer. He followed Ye Lanshan straight to the platform, ready to leave the Star Fruit Tree.
These martial artists were powerless to stop Ye Lanshan, and unable to intervene in the battle between Lin Zhen and Yue Feng, so they could only watch helplessly from below.
"Clang!"
After a loud crash, Lin Zhen's Bright Silver Spear finally completed its mission, unable to withstand Yue Feng's Star Artifact Long Spear, and was shattered in two from the center.
"Haha! Without weapons, let's see what you can do now!"
Yue Feng was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Lin Zhen, thrusting his spear like a poisonous dragon!
Whoosh!
Lin Zhen's figure disappeared from the spot and appeared behind Yue Feng. Yue Feng actually had a follow-up move. He suddenly thrust back with his tail, a move that was so strange that Lin Zhen didn't have time to dodge!
"Clang!"
The Liquid Metal transformed into an arm shield, forcefully blocking Yue Feng's thrust.
However, the Liquid Metal ultimately could not withstand the Star Artifact Long Spear and was pierced through. Lin Zhen had a tiny cut on his arm, and blood stained the Long Spear.
Yue Feng glanced at Lin Zhen's blood at the rear of the spear and sneered, "Lin Zhen, have you run out of tricks? Your Teleport speed is much slower than before. It seems you're tired too."
Lin Zhen was indeed exhausted. He had killed two hundred people at the Heavenly Gate, then used all his strength and Dantian Qi to break through the Heavenly Gate and enter, then fought Ding Sheng, and then faced Yue Feng, who was stronger than him. It was remarkable that he had been able to hold on until now.
"You're bleeding. I had a trump card to deal with you, but it seems I won't need it now. I can easily defeat you with my own methods. Lin Zhen, don't try to use Mind Power Teleportation to leave. You're not the only one who can do that."
Lin Zhen looked up at Yue Feng, "At least you wouldn't."
"That's right, I don't know it, and I don't know how you learned this ultimate move that only Star Realm Warrior can use, but I do know its weakness."
Lin Zhen's expression shifted. Once a martial artist reaches the Stellar Realm, the Qi in their Dantian Qi into Star Power, allowing them to use this powerful force to break through space and Teleport short distances.
Although Star Power Teleport and Telekinesis have differences, they are essentially the same, and both can be interrupted.
When Mind Power Master performs Teleport, it is driven by Mental Power. When you are particularly weak, it becomes difficult to perform. At this time, if there is Mind Power Master of the same level nearby, they can interrupt your Teleport by using Mental Power to strike.
While Yue Feng may not be able to Mind Power Teleportation, as a Dark Gold-level Mind Power Master, he is capable of Mental Impact. Now that Lin Zhen's Mental Power is greatly depleted, there will definitely be mental fluctuations when he tries to Teleport again, which Yue Feng can interrupt with Mental Impact.
Sure enough, Yue Feng continued, "When your Mind Power Teleportation was at its peak, I might not have been able to do anything about it, but now, Lin Zhen, you'd better stop showing off. You don't even have a chance to escape now."
Lin Zhen let out a long sigh, "That's not necessarily true."
"If you're not convinced, you can try and see if you still have a chance."
Lin Zhen looked around. He Mental Power that he couldn't fight Yue Feng head-on anymore. Although he could still hold out for a while, if he continued to fight, he might not be able to run away when he was too exhausted.
"I need to find a place to rest. The previous battles have taken a toll on me. Ideally, I should find a Star Crystal to advance to the War God, otherwise I will still be unable to defeat Yue Feng after his advancement."
Thinking of this, Lin Zhen suddenly plummeted downwards, heading straight for the group of martial artists on the ground.
"Not good!"
Yue Feng was immediately alarmed. If Lin Zhen entered the crowd, it would be difficult for his Mental Power to lock onto him in the chaos. If Lin Zhen used Teleport, wouldn't he have a chance to escape?
Thinking of this, Yue Feng chased after the crowd without hesitation.
"Get out of my way!"
People scattered in a flash, and Lin Zhen instantly Teleport to Heavenly Gate.
"Don't even think about running away!"
Yue Feng had already advanced to the level of War God, and his speed, strength, and explosive power had all reached an incredible level. In the blink of an eye, he caught up with Heavenly Gate.
Lin Zhen Teleport away again, covering several dozen meters, but Yue Feng caught up quickly.
Lin Zhen Teleport teleport for the third time, but was interrupted by Yue Feng.
The two fought again and soon returned to Heavenly Gate.
Lin Zhen finally sensed the danger. If things continued like this, it would be really dangerous. But right now, he couldn't shake off Yue Feng's pursuit. Where should he go?
"Clang!"
Lin Zhen's Liquid Metal transformed into an arm shield, blocking another upward thrust of the Long Spear. However, the impact sent him flying into the sky, his arm going numb.
Looking up at the treetops that were getting closer and closer, Lin Zhen had a sudden thought.
Since things have come to this point, there's no other option but to take a gamble.
Lin Zhen believed there was one place Yue Feng could never pursue, and that was the outermost layer of the Star Fruit Tree, specifically the outermost layer of Leaf with strong corrosive properties.
This layer of Leaf is very thick, reaching tens of meters in length, with layers intertwined, allowing sunlight to occasionally filter in.
Even if Lin Zhen Teleportation, he couldn't possibly pass through this layer of Leaf in one go. If he rushed in, he would definitely be tightly wrapped by these Leaf.
Ignoring the numbness in his arm, Lin Zhen suddenly kicked the shield at his feet, sending it hurtling towards Yue Feng who was chasing after him. Taking advantage of the moment Yue Feng dodged, Mind Power Teleportation!
When the body disappeared and reappeared, the Liquid Metal had transformed into a shield, heading straight for the Leaf at the top of the Sky Dome Fruit Tree.
"This kid's gone mad! You're asking for it!"
Because Yue Feng was dodging the shield, he didn't have time to interrupt Lin Zhen's Teleport and was put a little distance away. He hurriedly chased after him again, but could only watch as Lin Zhen flew for a while and then Teleport again, directly entering the layer of Corrosive Leaves!
As soon as he entered, the Leaf immediately came to life, completely enveloping Lin Zhen without leaving a single gap, making it impossible for him to Teleport anymore!
Yue Feng chased to the edge of the Corrosive Leaves layer, but dared not follow any further. He circled back and forth outside, and finally simply found the nearest tree branch to sit on.
"Lin Zhen, let's see if you can survive here. The metal inside the Corrosive Leaves can melt. The Leaf won't open until you're completely rotten into juice. Let's see how long you can hold out!"
Today, I'm adding a sixth chapter as an extra chapter to celebrate the book's new Helm Master (Silent Doc) and to settle accounts.
