Chapter 476: The Mutated Star Fruit Tree
Translator: 549690339
Seeing Chen Fenglie looking so frustrated, Lin Zhen couldn’t help but find it amusing.
“Brother Chen, it doesn’t need to be this way, shall we take it slow and discuss? How about you co over to my house, I’ll ask Yue’er to cook so dishes, we can have a chat while eating and drinking?”
Chen Fenglie was clearly tempted: “Going to your house…that might work. Not everyone gets a chance to taste Su’s magnificent cooking skills. Fine, I’ll co over in a bit.”
With that, he imdiately logged out of the Dinsional Universe.
Lin Zhen smiled, closed his eyes, and savored the peaceful tranquility.
About ten minutes later, Chen Fenglie arrived.
Su Mingyue and An Ning had just finished their cultivation session. Seeing Chen Fenglie arriving, Lin Zhen said to Su Mingyue, who loved to cook: “Yue’er, Brother Chen is here, make a couple of dishes for us. Rember to add more at.”
“Uh huh, I know. You all can’t enjoy your al without at.”
Su Mingyue greeted Chen Fenglie and then went out to prepare.
Shortly afterward, she served pan-fried golden gunfish from Blue Bay Star, a plate of grilled wild beef, a pot of stead crab, and stewed Earth Dragon tail. All four dishes were at dishes.
“Here you go, Brother Chen. This is Hundred Flowers Brew, a unique creation by our Ling’er from the Elf Clan. It’s one of a kind in the entire universe, consider it your good fortune to have a taste.”
They poured so liquor, took a few bites, and clinked their glasses together. Chen Fenglie sighed, “Lin Zhen, you are really living the life of a king. Surrounded by ultimate beauties every day, eating food that I’ve never even heard of. This al might cost several hundred thousand, right?”
“Ha ha! Let’s not talk about money when we’re together, right? Besides, who can resist our charming ladies?”
“Alright, enough with the boasting. I ca to discuss sothing serious with you.”
“Go ahead, what’s really happening here? You seem quite flustered.”
“Well, I guess I have to bla you after all. You’re the one who forbade high-level warriors from hunting Mutated Beasts.”
“Exactly, this was also for letting Earth Warriors grow quickly. You can also see that now everyone is practicing martial arts, so they are making great progress. Walk on any street, any random person you run into, be it an elderly man or woman, anyone could be a War General.”
Chen Fenglie nodded: “You are right. However, this has also given the Mutated Beasts a chance to breathe and grow. Do you know how I ended up like this?”
“What happened?”
“I went to the Star Fruit Tree and got attacked by mutated insects. I nearly died out there.”
“Star Fruit Tree!”
Lin Zhen was surprised. He had not returned to the Star Fruit Tree since he left. But there should be repulsion to those under the War God level. It is the God Generals Training Camp, only those under War General can enter. How could Chen Fenglie, who’s at Satellite Stage, go to the Star Fruit Tree?
Seeing Lin Zhen’s doubt, Chen Fenglie said: “I guess you haven’t been paying attention since you’re living so high and mighty. The God Generals Training Camp has been cancelled for several years. After the conflict with the extraterrestrial civilizations, Guo Mo and his team were all killed in action. The Star Fruit Tree then was left abandoned. Without any external interference, the already superior environnt allowed the originally mutated insects to mutate again. In addition, the uncontrolled growth of the Star Fruit Tree is not the way it used to be when it was the God Generals Training Camp.”
Chen Fenglie took a sip of the wine: “It’s no longer a place to train. Let alone War Generals, even those at Star Realm level won’t be able to cope. You see now, and I can’t manage there. Besides you and Yan Qiyue, probably nobody on Earth could survive there.”
“Is it that terrible?”
“Indeed, besides, the insects from the Star Fruit Tree have started to leave the tree. The Capital Base City has already been under attack several tis. That’s why I went there. Now that I can’t handle it anymore, you, as the Lord, can’t just sit idle.”
Lin Zhen nodded seriously: “Indeed, I can’t just ignore it. Let’s finish our al and then go check out the Star Fruit Tree imdiately.”
“Great! Now that you’ve said so, I can have peace of mind. Let start eating then, you have these dishes every day, leave them for today.”
After saying that, Chen Fenglie started eating passionately, gulping down everything on the table like a tornado.
“Eh! It’s so delicious, I can’t taste anything else after eating your food.”
“Well, co over for a drink whenever you have ti. Let’s get back to business first.”
The two of them cleaned up and got ready to leave. An Ning walked over: “Are you going out again?”
“Haha, darling, don’t worry. I’m just going to check out the Star Fruit Tree with Brother Chen. We won’t leave Earth for now.”
Without leaving the house, they boarded the spaceship in the yard. The spaceship took off and three minutes later, they arrived at the outskirts of Capital Base City.
“Look, there is the Star Fruit Tree. It’s hardly recognizable now.”
Looking down from the spaceship, the Star Fruit Tree was almost reaching out of the atmosphere. The treetop covered hundreds of miles, a green ocean as far as the eye could see.
“Has it grown this big?”
“Yes, it seems normal from the outside, but the real wonders are inside.”
“Then let’s go down and take a look.”
As the perpetual crystal spaceship landed, Lin Zhen got off the spaceship and looked up at this enormous tree, feeling an overwhelming sense of vitality.
“Such intense vitality, this fruit tree is extraordinary.”
“I’ve also done so research. This fruit tree is a star space variant, also known as a World Tree. If left unchecked, it might grow infinitely. If it grows for a few hundred more years, I’m afraid it will absorb all the nutrients of the Earth.”
“Could it be that serious?”
“Absolutely correct. Once it absorbs all the nutrients of the Earth, our ho will be ruined. Lin Zhen, we must completely resolve this issue this ti.”
Lin Zhen nodded, and the two approached the Star Fruit Tree. Under the tree, they no longer felt the repelling force.
“Indeed, it’s gone. Even at the War God Level, one couldn’t stay here for a long ti. Things have really changed.”
Before Lin Zhen could reply, Chen Fenglie suddenly shouted: “Watch out~!”
A green shadow rushed forward. Lin Zhen flicked his hand, and the Yin-Yang Spear fiercely thrust out!
“Ga~~~!!”
With an unpleasant scream, blood splattered, and an unknown giant insect crashed to the ground, writhing frantically.
Lin Zhen thrust his spear several tis in quick succession, completely killing this resilient insect.
“That’s just a common leaf insect, having such a strong power! I feel like its strike just now was nearly on par with those at the Planet Stage.”
Chen Fenglie, standing nearby, was equally astonished: “Little brother, your strength is incredible. You hastily killed that insect with a casual attack. The last ti I dealt with them, it took a lot of effort.”
“Are there more powerful ones than this?”
“Not just more, they’re everywhere. These insects are the lowest level ones in the Star Fruit Tree. The higher-level ones stay deep in the trees without coming out. If they do co out, we Earth residents won’t have peace.”
“If that’s the case, Brother Chen, you shouldn’t stay here. Leave this to .”
“Then I’ll wait for you here. This place can now be connected to the Dinsional Universe. If anything happens, tell imdiately. Otherwise, I will be worried. If sothing happens to you, I can’t explain it to your siblings.”
Lin Zhen nodded, leaving Chen Fenglie at the bottom of the tree. Then he alone began to climb up the spiral staircase.
Lin Zhen even rembered the place where he had battled with Yue Zhenhua. Above it were tiered platforms, which is where he t Su Mingyue.
Upon reaching the fifth platform, the Lake Heart Tree appeared before him.
But after stepping onto the platform, nurous insects were swarming towards him.
Flying ladybugs, powerful beetles, swift mantises, spiders setting up formations… All of these insects held incredible strength, sothing ordinary warriors couldn’t face.
“This is going to be fun.”
Lin Zhen’s avatar appeared beside his main body. With his twin spears ready, he plunged into the swarm of insects.
Initially, Lin Zhen thought that no matter how powerful the insects, they couldn’t be a match for him. But when the fight began, he discovered that the insects were not only strong but also nurous.
So nurous they could hardly be killed off!
For a whole day, Lin Zhen managed to advance from the platform to the shore of Lake Heart Tree, leaving a field of insect corpses in his wake.
The vast number of insects instilled a sense of despair. Lin Zhen had to retreat for a rest.
Such high-intensity battles tested a warrior’s physical and ntal endurance. Any warrior with a slightly weaker will would lose confidence when they saw the dense swarm of insects, leading to despair.
But Lin Zhen wouldn’t. Neither his willpower nor sense of duty would allow him to do so.
However, a consolation was that the strongest insect here had not surpassed the Constant Star Stage yet, and their intelligence was low. They were not as difficult to deal with as humans.
After a three-hour rest, Lin Zhen re-entered the Star Fruit Tree. This ti it was sowhat easier. It took him another day to reach the center of Lake Heart Tree.
“Star Crystals!”
Just as Lin Zhen was about to exit, he saw a hint of light flashing before his eyes.
“That’s a Satellite Crystal! But why does it feel so powerful? Much stronger than before.”
Taking advantage of the mont when surrounding insects were fewer, Lin Zhen quickly moved forward to the location of the Cot Crystal on the edge of the lake.
The dazzling Satellite Crystal, resembling a large diamond, was quietly floating on top of the petal.
“This… this is actually effective for those at the Satellite Stage!”
Feeling its aura, Lin Zhen’s eyes widened in surprise!
The Satellite Crystals and Cot Crystals he had seen earlier could only be useful for warriors at the War General Stage. However, trendous changes have taken place over the years. Not only has the fruit tree grown much bigger and the insects beco stronger, but even the Star Crystals have mutated!
He plucked the Satellite Crystal, Lin Zhen disappeared in an instant, and quickly returned to Chen Fenglie: “Brother Chen, absorb this quickly!”
The mont Chen Fenglie received the Star Crystal, he knew it was a treasure. Without a second thought, he began ditating on the spot to absorb it.
A while later, Chen Fenglie opened his eyes: “Little brother! This thing is fantastic. It’s comparable to almost a month of my cultivation. I’ve taken a big step towards the Satellite Level 7. If I can get a few more, I could reach Satellite Level 8!”
Lin Zhen smiled and nodded: “That’s good. I hope there won’t be too few fruits on this tree.”
