Li Wanfeng and Zhao Siqing followed closely behind Li Yao, looking around before taking out a phone: “Are you saying that Lin Zhen didn’t come this way?”
A man walked out from a distance and approached Li Wanfeng and his wife: “He was indeed in this area buying something just now, but disappeared in a blink of an eye.”
“Useless fool, can’t even keep an eye on a person.”
Li Wanfeng cursed, then turned to Li Yao and said, “Father, it’s possible that Lin Zhen sensed something and fled.”
“Where would he go?” Li Yao asked.
“I estimate he might go to the Five Connected Pools. He has practiced there twice before and is very likely to return there.”
“Fine, it does not matter where he practices. Since the Five Connected Pools is also an Ancient God Ruin, I’ll practice there. If I encounter him, I’ll kill him immediately.”
“But father, what if Lin Zhen doesn’t go to the Five Connected Pools, but goes to the Ancient God Ruins in Changbai Mountain instead? Then we’d be searching in the wrong place.”
Li Yao chuckled coldly: “Even if he goes to Changbai Mountain, it will be futile. This time, I have contacted several Star Realm experts who live in Ice City Base City. They all have a grudge against Lin Zhen. Their usual training grounds are in Changbai Mountain, so I will call them. If they see Lin Zhen in Changbai Mountain, his demise will be even more miserable.”
“What if he goes to other Ancient God Ruins?”
“You don’t know this, an Ancient God Ruin is not somewhere a single person can explore, especially someone as famous as Lin Zhen. I’ve made quite a few like-minded friends during my years in the Star Realm. No matter where he goes, he’ll be noticed. As long as I get the information, I’ll immediately get rid of him!”
“Haha, with father’s words, I can be relieved. If Lin Zhen has the guts, he wouldn’t go to any Ancient God Ruins at all, otherwise, there would be no place for him to hide no matter where he goes.”
With Li Wanfeng’s praises, Li Yao proceeded to make a phone call and then, they left.
At this moment, Lin Zhen who was not far away within the crowd gave Li Yao and his people a glance, a sense of frustration brewing within him.
Offending these Star Realm experts was indeed troublesome. He could not go to the Five Connected Pools and even Changbai Mountain was off limits.
There weren’t many Ancient God Ruins in the world, apart from the Five Connected Pools and Changbai Mountain, the only choices left were to head south or even go abroad.
Watching Li Yao and his people leave, Lin Zhen made a round and unconsciously found himself at Millennia Time Bar.
This was a gathering place for martial artists. Since no one could recognize him with a mask on, Lin Zhen entered the bar.
The main hall on the first floor was filled with low-level martial artists. Most of them were at the Warrior Level, a few were War Generals, all feasting and drinking, the atmosphere was lively.
When Lin Zhen walked in, many people diverted their gaze.
Because of the presence of the Dark Star within Lin Zhen, unless he wanted to reveal his level, others wouldn’t be able to see it.
Yet, at this moment with the mask on, Lin Zhen blithely opened his realm. The aura of an advanced Elite War God was evident to everyone.
No one wanted to voluntarily provoke an advanced War God. Who knew if they had any eccentric temper. It wouldn’t be good if they brought trouble upon themselves.
Presently, Lin Zhen was wearing a tight black outfit that showcased his physique. The silver metallic mask and slightly tousled long hair gave him an intense charisma. Upon seeing him, the bartender immediately greeted with a smile: “Good afternoon, sir. Would you like a drink?”
“Sure.”
“Sir, please come to the third floor. That’s where the War Gods drink.”
Lin Zhen followed the bartender to the third floor, meeting some martial artists along the way, all of whom made way for him.
On the third floor, there were about twenty to thirty War Gods drinking and discussing topics.
Lin Zhen ordered two bottles of high-proof liquor. With his current physique, as long as he didn’t intentionally get drunk, it wouldn’t be possible.
With a few side dishes to go with the liquor, Lin Zhen listened to the discussions around him.
At a nearby table, several War Gods were holding a discussion.
“Brother Liu, why haven’t we seen you at the Ancient God Ruins for quite some time?”
“Isn’t it just because I’ve been watching the War God’s Knockout recently? I haven’t had time to go out. But now that the Knockout contest is almost over, it’s about time I get active.”
“Planning on going to the Five Connected Pools or Changbai Mountain?”
“There’re too many people at the Five Connected Pools presently, it’s not quick to harvest crystals there. A few Star Realm bullies are in Changbai Mountain too. I am thinking of going somewhere further.”
“Oh! Where to?”
“I haven’t quite decided yet, can you give me some advice? Should I head towards the North Pole or the South Sea?”
Lin Zhen knows the two places Old Liu mentioned, one is an ancient god site in the northern region of Sand Russia, and the other is an island in the South Sea of Hua Xia, which also houses an ancient god site.
Another War God said: “Do we have to go there? I heard that a spaceship-like ancient god site has been recently discovered in the Arabian region of Central Asia. It’s filled with alien beasts, and you can not only obtain crystals that can replace dark energy stones, but also find a lot of Star Artifacts. That place is truly a treasure trove.”
Old Liu gave a wry smile: “You mean the Ancient God City? That place is not easy to get to. It’s a intersection point for our Hua Xia, the European Union, the African Union, and Sand Russia. Also, people from India and the United States have arrived there. The warriors going there are at least Elite War Gods and many are on the brink of entering the Star Realm. Quite a few Star Realm Experts have gone there to explore. I have only condensed two folds of Dantian Qi and if I go there, I will simply be delivering myself to them on a silver platter. Not just me, even if Lin Zhen went there, I fear he would find it difficult.”
“Is it really that dangerous?” another War God asked, surprised.
“Of course, it’s dangerous. They say there are four layers to the Ancient God City. The layout is like a giant ship, but it should not be a spaceship. The place extends for tens of kilometers – there’s no spaceship that big. Besides, the city is overrun with alien beasts. S-level mutated beasts haunt even the first layer. If you want to go there and you don’t have superior power, then you must form a team. With my level of skills, ordinary teams might not even want me.”
“Are you going there to find a team? I also want to go to see.”
“There’s a forum online. The Ancient God City is quite popular lately. War Gods can log in to check. There’s quite a lot of team formation information on it. But make sure you’re mentally prepared; the requirements are quite demanding. ”
Several War Gods picked up their phones and started flipping through, Lin Zhen also pulled out his phone to search for the forum.
He quickly found the login account. Prominently on the webpage was: “New discovery, Ancient God City located in the Saudi Arabian desert, limitless alien beast crystals, top quality Star Artifacts, waiting for martial artists to explore and conquer!”
After opening it, there were many posts about the Ancient God City.
At this moment, Lin Zhen remembered that there was indeed such a place in his previous life. However, only War Gods could log into this forum. In his previous life, Lin Zhen was just a low-ranking figure, ineligible to enter for a look. He only knew that a lot of good things had come out of here, but it was also one of the most dangerous ancient god sites.
“A ancient god city like a spaceship… How can there be such a place?”
Lin Zhen read through the posts one after another. War Gods from all over the world had logged into this forum, even there are loads of experts not limited to only War God Level but also on the verge of entering the Star Realm.
There are about over a thousand Star Realm warriors worldwide, but the number of War Gods definitely exceeds two hundred thousand. Didn’t you see at the beginning of the War God’s Knockout, there were over thirty thousand War Gods recommended by their respective martial arts schools? This is only a small group among War Gods. The majority of War Gods did not participate in the War God’s Knockout.
Between War Gods and the Star Realm, there is also a huge group of those on the verge of entering the Star Realm.
Advancing from the verge of the Star Realm to the Star Realm is definitely the most important step in a martial artist’s journey, and not every individual on the verge of the Star Realm can successfully advance. In fact, most War Gods who have entered the cusp of the Star Realm get stuck there, unable to take that crucial step forward.
According to Lin Zhen’s estimation, the number of individuals on the cusp of the Star Realm worldwide is at least several tens of times that of Star Realm warriors, possibly between thirty and fifty thousand.
The reason these individuals on the cusp of the Star Realm seldom appear is because they all hope to take that important step, so they are each diligently practicing. People like Yue Zhenhua who are on the cusp of the Star Realm and still lingering in the mundane world are absolutely rare.
The forum is full of posts about the Ancient God City.
“European Union small team recruiting, experts on the verge of entering the Star Realm will lead the team, we have two Level Nine War God teammates, looking for two new teammates. Requirements: Level Nine War God, Dantian Qi condensed at least four-fold, Spiritual Mind Masters are prioritized….”
“Indian group recruiting, two individuals on the cusp of the Star Realm leading the team, looking for one Spiritual Mind Master above Level Eight.”
“Hua Xia North West military martial arts group recruiting, the War God’s Knockout expert Feng Ni leads the team, seeking two Level Nine War Gods, individuals on the cusp of the star realm are given priority, nationality unrestricted. ”
“Level Eight War God leading the team, looking for Intermediate War Gods or higher, preferably Elites, division of loot to be discussed in person… ‘
“Third Level War God, late-stage silver Spiritual Mind Master looking for a team of Intermediate War Gods, is anyone interested?”
Following the standard configuration for martial artists, a team of five is considered optimal. This has already been acknowledged by everyone. Besides, in an ancient god site, if you act alone you will definitely be a target for other martial artists. Even if you are powerful and reign supreme on the first level, you would still be unable to handle the second level on your own.
Therefore, very few people will choose to enter an ancient gods site on their own. That would definitely make one a noticeable target.
After seeing the news about the spaceship, Lin Zhen had already decided to go
there.
The place is a mix of fish and dragons, it’s the best place to hide. Since he can’t enter Ruyi Lake at Five Connected Pools for now, why not go to other places to gain some experience?
As for the issue of forming a team, Lin Zhen quickly chose a target.
A small team from Hua Xia, led by an expert on the cusp of the Star Realm. Everyone in the team was an Elite War God, and their combat power was passable. Their requirement was a high-level Spiritual Mind Master as a War God.
The team leader was named Wu Hai, from the southern Base City. The recruitment post had just been hung up not long ago.
It’s not easy for them to recruit people. Spiritual Mind Masters are definitely in high demand, especially high-level Spiritual Mind Masters who are War Gods. Once they reach this level, Mind Masters are sought-after commodities. Since their team only has Wu Hai, who is on the verge of entering the Star Realm, they don’t have much of an advantage.
“Let’s choose this team, then. It has average strength and it isn’t too conspicuous, which is perfect for hiding my identity for the time being and still allows me to explore the Ancient God City.”
After Lin Zhen made his decision, he left the bar and immediately called Wu
Hai..
