Blizzard

The fight between Lin Zhen and Li Huainian lasted for five minutes. Li Huainian stopped, panting heavily, his whole body drenched in sweat.

A relentless offensive would only drain more of his energy. In contrast, Lin Zhen found it much easier to defend himself by using his long weapon. Five minutes later, Lin Zhen only had a little sweat on his head, which was just enough for a warm-up.

"Hehe! Brother Li, you flatter me. Looks like I'll have someone to provide lunch for me."

Li Huainian failed, but he didn't care. "Cheng, Lin Zhen, I admire you. I used my pair of Golden Mace to my fullest extent, but I still couldn't force you to take a step back. Just based on this, you truly deserve the title of the Ice City First Warrior."

Li Huainian down from the arena, some War General laughed at him, saying, "Old Li, you're no good either. You didn't even manage to defeat a single warrior."

"Tch! Lin Zhen is indeed powerful. If you're not convinced, you can go up and try. I doubt your short sword could possibly force Lin Zhen to back down."

The War General chimed in, "You're wrong. A shorter weapon is more dangerous. If I bring my short sword up, Lin Zhen will have a hard time defending against it unless he uses his Long Spear to counterattack. Simply defending won't be enough to hold out."

"Then you go up and try. If you lose too, this meal is on us."

The War General originally wanted Lin Zhen to rest for a while, but Lin Zhen didn't feel tired and took the initiative to invite him to the stage.

When this person stepped onto the stage, his short sword attacks were indeed more ferocious. Because the weapon was short, he could strike faster. Waves of sword light attacked from all angles, not seeking to kill, but only to force Lin Zhen out of the circle.

Ke Lin Zhen's immovable stance had become increasingly refined, so he would Immovable as a Mountain let him succeed. Driven by Lightning Ions, his Long Spear was even faster than his opponent's short sword, flying up and down to block all of his opponent's attacks!

Five minutes later, the martial artist had no choice but to admit defeat and leave the stage.

After defeating two War General in a row, a third person came up on stage, and the result was the same: he was unable to force Lin Zhen out of the circle. However, this person did make Lin Zhen move his feet a little, which is the best result so far.

These War General, having suffered repeated defeats, were losing face and hoped someone could help them regain their honor. So they took turns going up on stage, and Lin Zhen accepted all of them. With a Long Spear in hand, he defeated seven Beginner War General in a row!

These War General tried every possible method to defeat Lin Zhen, but Lin Zhen, with his Long Spear in hand and a heart of stone, remained steadfast and unmoved no matter how ingenious their schemes. No one could break Lin Zhen out of his circle.

It was almost noon when the War General finally stopped. The seven losers collectively invited Lin Zhen out for a big meal, thus fulfilling their promise.

They were happy to invite Lin Zhen to dinner; it was definitely not a bad thing to be able to establish a relationship with such a promising martial artist.

In the afternoon, Lin Zhen returned to the Martial Arts Hall and practiced with several Beginner War General for several hours. This time, three of them forced Lin Zhen to take a step back, but he still couldn't break through the circle.

The next morning, Lin Zhen returned to the Martial Arts Hall. After a full day of sparring, only one person managed to force Lin Zhen to take a step back.

By the third day, none of the Beginner War General in the Raging Wind could force Lin Zhen to retreat even half a step, let alone leave the area.

Lin Zhen had now fully grasped the essence of the Spear Technique Like a Mountain, and his training was almost over.

On the morning of the fourth day, the Cyber Police came to deliver the goods. Lin Zhen discovered that he had acquired a total of two kilograms of Liquid Metal, for which he had paid 440 million yuan.

"This is really expensive; we can't live without making money."

Lin Zhen put away the Liquid Metal and discovered there were other goods; it turned out that the Qi Booster Potion he had ordered had finally arrived.

This bottle of Qi Booster Potion was custom-made for Lin Zhen, worth 200 million, and can ensure that he can awaken his Dantian Qi to the maximum extent.

At this point, Lin Zhen has met all the basic requirements for advancing to the War General.

The largest Dark Energy Stone in history has been prepared long ago, which can greatly enhance Lin Zhen's power.

The Star Core containing lightning energy allowed Lin Zhen to condense Dark Star and cultivate Gravity.

With this bottle of Qi Booster Potion, Lin Zhen should be able to advance to the rank of War General in about a day.

Lin Zhen originally planned to wait until he got the potion, successfully advance to the rank of War General, and then set off for Zhaodong. However, after looking at the sky, he felt that his plan had to be changed.

The air outside became exceptionally cold, and a biting wind began to blow. It seemed that Zhang Guanyue's words were about to come true; a once-in-a-century Blizzard was about to arrive, perhaps even today.

If Lin Zhen Xuan Ze to break through to the General Stage today, then Li Tianhao and the others, seeing the snow, will likely not stay in Zhaodong and will probably rush back quickly. After returning, he will spread rumors that Lin Zhen is a coward who dares not go to Zhaodong, which will be very disadvantageous for Lin Zhen.

In the past few days, Lin Zhen has noticed that when the War General of Raging Wind Lin Zhen practice with him, they often hesitate to speak. They don't want Lin Zhen Lin Zhen to stay here and hope that he can completely resolve Li Tianhao's matter and not tarnish Raging Wind's reputation.

Even the newcomers to the Martial Arts Hall would sometimes ask Lin Zhen, "When is Brother Lin going to Zhaodong?"

Therefore, Lin Zhen couldn't wait any longer; he absolutely couldn't let Li Tianhao and the others come back.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhen immediately went online and posted a message.

The post was extremely arrogant, stating. "Anyone who challenges me in Zhaodong, better wash your necks and wait to be slaughtered! Lin Zhen is setting off now!"

Lin Zhen posted the message and quickly received a response from Li Tianhao.

"Haha, Lin Zhen, you cowardly bastard, you finally dare to crawl out of that dog hole? I'll be waiting for you in Zhaodong. Whoever doesn't come or goes back can get out of Ice City!"

There were many comments below Li Tianhao's post, and Lin Zhen even saw many familiar faces, such as Zhang Huai and Ouyang Yu, who were all currently in Zhaodong.

Lin Zhen turned off her phone, then drove her Raptor away from home, first going to the supermarket to buy a lot of necessities.

Thick cotton-padded clothes, matches, food, and other items to keep warm.

With these items in hand, Lin Zhen left the Base City.

Zhaodong is located about 200 kilometers northwest of the Base City. However, there are no satellite cities in this direction, and the road conditions are not good. This 200-kilometer journey is very difficult.

Lin Zhen drove for more than two hours and covered more than 100 kilometers. By then, the sky was already very gloomy.

It looks like it's about to snow, but for the people of Ice City, snow is nothing special, as simple as eating and drinking. However, no one realizes yet that this Blizzard will be bigger than ever before!

********

Zhaodong County is known as the Martial Artist Graveyard" by martial artists, meaning that countless martial artists have perished here.

But this place also has another name, the Martial Artist Treasury, because high-level Mutated Beast often appear here, and if you're lucky, you can even find Meteorite or legacies left by senior martial artists. After all, many people have died, and many good things have been left in the wild.

The urban area of Zhaodong Area is also relatively well preserved. At least it can still be seen that this is a city. Many buildings are still standing tall. Occasionally, the roars of monsters and the sounds of warriors fighting monsters can be heard in the urban area.

Inside a middle school's Laboratory Building, Li Tianhao and his group were all in one room.

There were four people around Li Tianhao. Two of them were tall men, Xiao Tianzuo and Xiao Tianyou. One was a man with a full beard, Lao Hu from Raging Wind. The other was a thin middle-aged man, Lou Qingfeng.

Li Tianhao put down his phone and exclaimed excitedly, "He's here! Lin Zhen is finally here! The Base City has also confirmed that he drove away in this direction, hahaha! That bastard has finally taken the bait. Once he gets to Zhaodong, he won't be going back alive!"

Lao Hu shook his head. "Lin Zhen is still young, he actually dared to come."

"Hmph! Can he not come? I've done so much work and used so many resources during this time. I've mobilized all the resources around my dad. Many people are smearing him online, and the Raging Wind Martial Hall is under a lot of pressure. He has no choice but to come, even if he has to bite the bullet."

Xiao Tianzuo, "But I reckon Lin Zhen isn't stupid either. He must have done his research before he came. I bet he's already found out about my and Tianyou's information."

Li Tianhao sneered, "How could I not have thought of that? But Lin Zhen can only find your information; he can't find Mr. Lou's."

Lou Qingfeng nodded. "He can't find my information, but it's hard to guarantee that he won't guess something. We still need to be prepared. Once he comes, we can't give him a chance to turn things around."

"Don't worry, Mr. Lou, I have other arrangements in place. I'm just afraid he won't dare to come. As long as he comes, that's fine."

Li Tianhao turned to Lao Hu and said, "Lao Hu, search for all martial artists in Zhaodong, except for Lin Zhen. Issue Wilderness Hunt Order for everyone else!"

"A Wilderness Hunt Order?" The group was all taken aback.

"The so-called Wilderness Hunt Order is to use the internet to find martial artists in this area and send a message to all martial artists within this range, offering a bounty for the capture of a certain person. Generally, unless it is a hatred that is irreconcilable, very few people will do this."

"That's right, it's the Wilderness Hunt Order. Set the bounty at three billion. I want anyone who encounters Lin Zhen to think that it's worth three billion. Let's see who won't be tempted then. I'll make sure Lin Zhen has nowhere to run and nowhere to hide!"

The group was secretly shocked. Li Tianhao was being incredibly generous, offering a bounty of 3 billion. Even the War God probably wouldn't let such a prize go easily.

"Don't think that 3 billion is a lot. With Lin Zhen around, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to win An Ning's heart. Once Lin Zhen dies, An Ning will definitely not escape my grasp. Do you know how much the entire An Corporation is worth? 300 billion! As the sole heir of the An Corporation An Ning, won't all this money be mine then? This mere 3 billion is nothing. My father also agrees with my approach."

"Lin Zhen, Lin Zhen, this Zhaodong is your graveyard!"

Li Tianhao stood up, looking quite smug, and strolled to the window, where he suddenly sneezed.

"Damn! It's so cold, it's snowing outside."

A biting northwest wind swept in through the window, and heavy snow swept in, turning the northern land into a pristine white landscape in a short time.
