• Lin Zhen flew to the Beehive at night, fought through the Bees and Wasps, and took three Star Crystals from the mound.
• Lin Zhen hid beneath a leaf and began absorbing the three Star Crystals to improve his strength.

Lin Zhen gathered a five-person team with Zhao Xiaoman, Li Changying, Jiang Huai, and Lou Qingfeng, then challenged Fifth Team to individual battles at the Beehive.

• Lin Zhen faced the captain of West Fifth Team, who attacked him with a halberd while Lin Zhen stood with his hands behind his back.

• Lin Zhen wounded Dong Shencai before losing their duel, and his teammates also lost their matches against the Sky Dome Four Gods.

• Over the next month, Lin Zhen reached Fourth Compression and his teammates advanced, but his team staged another defeat against the Sky Dome Four Gods without getting injured.
• Lin Zhen told his teammates to stay and cultivate in secret, then left after seeing Tang Yu appear on the Locator.

Lin Zhen left the Beehive to track Tang Yu and discovered him waiting with Zhou Butong at the edge of the Star Fruit Tree for a Special Star Crystal. As a thunderstorm began, the crystal had yet to appear.

• Captain Wang mocked Lin Zhen, but Dong Shencai slapped him and warned the others not to interfere in her conflict with Lin Zhen.
• Lin Zhen left the Beehive and followed Tang Yu east using the Locator.
• Lin Zhen found Tang Yu with Zhou Butong at the edge of the Star Fruit Tree, where they discussed their agreement to divide a Special Star Crystal and ordinary Star Crystals.
• Zhou Butong told Tang Yu that he had seen the Special Star Crystal appear during rain and thunder, so the two waited for a storm.
• Dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed, and heavy rain began over the Star Fruit Tree.

Tang Yu and Zhou Butong found a Space Crack containing hundreds of mature Star Crystals and Space Wandering Flowers, but it vanished before they could enter. Tang Yu manipulated Zhou Butong into drawing down more lightning, reopening the crack as Zhou Butong was killed by the bolts.

• Zhou Butong recalled finding a tree of Star Crystals inside a crack and helped Tang Yu locate the spot where lightning had opened it before.
• Tang Yu, Zhou Butong, and Lin Zhen saw a Space Crack reveal hundreds of mature Star Crystals and a Special Star Crystal among Space Wandering Flowers.
• Tang Yu and Zhou Butong tried to fly into the crack, but it vanished; Lin Zhen recognized that it was unstable and understood how the flowers had empowered Tang Yu.
• Tang Yu persuaded Zhou Butong to use another electric sword to attract lightning, then directed him to raise it beneath the storm.
• Seven or eight bolts struck Zhou Butong through the sword, killing him, while the Space Crack opened again.

Lin Zhen killed Tang Yu, crossed the lightning-filled Space Crack, and found a tree bearing hundreds of Star Crystals in a Different Dimension Space. After taking the Space-Time Wandering Flower, he realized it was causing the crack to close and raced toward the exit.

• Tang Yu reached for the Star Crystals, but Lin Zhen stabbed him with a Liquid Metal knife and killed him.
• Lin Zhen crossed the Space Crack despite its intensified lightning and entered a small Different Dimension Space.
• Lin Zhen found a tree holding around three hundred Star Crystals and decided to absorb as many as possible before the crack closed.
• Lin Zhen climbed the tree and took the Space-Time Wandering Flower, the special Star Crystal.
• The Space Crack began closing after Lin Zhen removed the flower, so he stored it and raced toward the vanishing exit.

After lightning drove Lin Zhen back into the Different Dimension Space, he absorbed a Space Star Crystal and comprehended spatial power until he mastered Mind Power Teleportation. He used it to reach more Star Crystals and decided to absorb all the mature crystals before attempting to leave.

• Lin Zhen tried to escape through the Space Crack, but lightning struck his metal shield and blasted him back as the crack closed.
• Lin Zhen absorbed the Space Star Crystal, resisted its illusions, and followed its power through the universe into Hyperdimension.
• Lin Zhen realized he could cross Hyperdimension to traverse space and stepped back into the Space Crack inside the Star Fruit Tree.
• Lin Zhen tested Mind Power Teleportation, reaching a branch and catching it after it snapped beneath him.
• Lin Zhen found six Star Crystals on the branch and began absorbing three, recognizing that mature crystals held far more energy than those from the Beehive.

Lin Zhen remained trapped in the Space Crack and absorbed Star Crystals until he reached the fifth level of Dantian Qi compression, while the Beehive’s leaders assumed he had disappeared for good. As Ye Lanshan’s breakthrough and Yue Feng’s wedding approached, Tong Huan persuaded the Sky Dome Four Gods to attack Lin Zhen’s teammates so Dong Shencai would have no reason to stay.

• Lin Zhen absorbed fifteen Star Crystals and reached the fifth level of Dantian Qi compression, then prepared to continue absorbing the hundreds still on the tree.

• Hua Cangtian, Zhang Sihai, and Li Xuanqiong urged Dong Shencai to leave the Beehive, but she refused to go while Lin Zhen’s teammates remained there.
• Tong Huan suggested killing Lin Zhen’s four teammates to remove Dong Shencai’s reason to stay, and the Sky Dome Four Gods agreed to attack them at dawn.

Jiang Huai and his companions advanced their Dantian Qi compression while worrying about Lin Zhen’s disappearance and an approaching threat. In Sky Dome, Su Mingyue learned that Lin Zhen had been missing for three months, but she remained certain he would never give up.

• Li Changying completed fivefold Dantian Qi compression, while Jiang Huai said he had finished a day earlier.
• Lou Qingfeng reported that Sky Dome’s Four Gods might soon leave and warned that someone was approaching to target their group.
• Ye Lanshan told Su Mingyue she would have to leave Sky Dome soon and that Yue Feng had been supporting Su Mingyue’s cultivation.
• Ye Lanshan said Lin Zhen had disappeared inside the Star Fruit Tree three months ago and suggested he had given up.
• Su Mingyue rejected Ye Lanshan’s doubts and insisted that Lin Zhen would never change or abandon her.

• Ye Lanshan warned Su Mingyue that Tyrant had absorbed three Special Star Crystals, wielded Star Artifact weapons and armor, and possessed the single-use Star Strike that could target a person’s Mental Sea of Consciousness.
• Su Mingyue insisted that Lin Zhen could defeat Tyrant and said she would see Ye Lanshan off when she left the Star Fruit Tree.
• Lin Zhen absorbed the last of the Star Crystals and completed Ninefold Compression, though he realized he had no crystals left to attempt Tenfold Compression.
• Lin Zhen tried to cross the Space Crack by stepping through and using Teleport, but both attempts left him inside the Different Dimension Space.
• Lin Zhen struck the Space Crack repeatedly with his Bright Silver Spear and Lightning Long River, but could only make it ripple.
• Lin Zhen concluded he needed an attack as powerful as a late-stage or peak War God’s to open even a tiny passage, then searched for a way to increase his strength.

Trapped in the Different Dimension Space, Lin Zhen resonated with Lightning Photons and combined their power with his Lightning Ions. He used the resulting lightning-enhanced strike to break through the Space Barrier and escape after three months.

• Lin Zhen realized that lightning might break the Space Barrier and decided to try resonating with the Lightning Photons inside his Dark Star.
• Lin Zhen used Soul Lock to restrain a Lightning Photon and spent a day resonating with it.
