With each strike of the alloy chisel, layers of the outer stone skin peeled off.

Gradually, a dark color appeared in Lin Zhen’s eyes.

“Mother-child Stone! It’s actually a Mother-child Stone!” Even with Lin Zhen’s vast knowledge, he couldn’t help but get excited at this moment.

A Mother-child Stone is a stone that contains two Dark Energy Stones, one large and one small, hence the name Mother-child Stone.

These stones are extremely rare. Compared to the child stone, the energy in the mother stone is more pure, and much larger.

Based on the size of the stone just now and the part exposed now, there’s no doubt that the previously revealed one was the child stone, while this one is the mother stone.

Lin Zhen carefully spent about three hours before finally revealing the true face of the mother stone.

If the previous one was the size of a goose egg, then this one was almost the size of a small ball, more than seven or eight times larger!

“What a big guy, the rumor was indeed true. The power contained in this stone, even if it’s not a thousand kilograms, it’s definitely more than eight hundred. There has never been such a large Dark Energy Stone on Earth. Even in the interstellar space, only a few legendary stones can compete with this one.”

“Very rare, with this stone, after I advance to War General Level, my strength will surely undergo a earth-shaking transformation!”

However, Lin Zhen did not immediately absorb the Dark Energy Stone. After absorbing it, he would have to prepare for supplementary elixirs for his spiritual power. Since he plans to customize his own elixir, he doesn’t have it for now.

With the Dark Energy Stone in his bag, Lin Zhen felt very satisfied.

“Although I haven’t been in Yi Lan County City for a long time, this trip has been incredibly fruitful. Although there are still many beasts here, there is no need for me to stay any longer. It is the safest and most prudent to take the Dark Energy Stone back as soon as possible.”

Looking at the sky outside, it was getting brighter again. The night went by as he worked on the Dark Energy Stone.

Lin Zhen took a nap on the spot, meditated and rested for a while. By the time it was broad daylight, he opened his eyes, feeling refreshed and energetic. After cleaning up the debris from the Dark Energy Stone, he left the area.

After leaving, Lin Zhen cautiously moved forward. Since he was a Spiritual Mind Master who could fly, he could easily avoid some dangerous areas. As long as he didn’t fly too high to invade the territory of mutated birds, there would be no danger.

Upon reaching the edge of Yi Lan County City, Lin Zhen found that the situation was a bit different.

At the edge of Yi Lan County City, there were military personnel setting up a checkpoint at the Blue River Bridge. This was the only way in and out of Yi Lan and a must-pass area if one wanted to return to Base City. Otherwise, one had to take a detour for thousands of miles, probably all the way to the Russian border.

Lin Zhen even saw Bai Feng among the crowd, who was with another military War God, checking everyone entering and leaving Yi Lan.

“As expected, the energy of War God Powerhouses is extraordinary. They can actually ask the military to help set up a checkpoint. In this way, whoever obtains the Dark Energy Stone will have to face their inspection.”

“It’s easy for me to return to Base City. I just need to bypass a certain distance and then fly directly over the Blue River. However, in that case, I can’t explain how I got back.”

“I can imagine that they will investigate everyone who stays in Yi Lan. Any hint of suspicion will make someone a target, and the secret of the Dark Energy Stone may not be safe.”

After thinking for a while, Lin Zhen decided to stay in Yi Lan County City. The county city was full of dangers, and the military couldn’t search it. Even if Bai Feng had enough power, he couldn’t have the military stationed here for a long time. After a while, they would naturally leave.

Lin Zhen was still weak, unable to conflict with these War God Powerhouses. At most, he could break through to War General later, and this period could be used for training in Yi Lan County City, to collect more monster crystals and earn more money.

Moreover, having more time for buffer would also be a good explanation for how his strength improved so quickly. Otherwise, it would certainly be suspicious if he went from Level Eight Early Stage to the Peak of Level Nine in just a few days.

Not bothering to look at the army again, Lin Zhen turned around and returned to Yi Lan County Town.

Upon his return to the county town, Lin Zhen found himself another shelter on the top floor of a shopping mall in Yi Lan County. From here, he could see the whole county town, and only he could come and go, as he flew straight in and out of the window on the top floor.

Every day after that, Lin Zhen hunted and killed monsters nearby. The number of monsters in Yi Lan soared as the Human Bear finished its evolution. Every day, many monsters came from the Lesser Xing’an Range, densely covering the county town, and they seemed to be unending.

Lin Zhen now possessed a Golden Level Spiritual Power, mastered Storm Gun Art, and reached the peak of a Level Nine Warrior. His strength was comparable to that of an Intermediate War General, so he faced no danger as long as he didn’t provoke the two Human Bears or challenge a large group of B-level Mutated Beasts on purpose.

Moreover, general dangers couldn’t stop Lin Zhen, as he could just fly away.

Observing the situation from the high-rise building every day, Lin Zhen could directly fly to where C-level Variant Beasts were, or to B-level Variant Beasts that were isolated. He could kill them without having to go through layers of low-level Variant Beast groups. This increased his hunting efficiency significantly, and he received a large daily income of crystals, showcasing the advantages of a Spiritual Mind Master.

On the first day, Lin Zhen harvested eleven C-level Variant Beast Crystal Nuclei and one B-level Variant Beast Crystal Nucleus.

On the third day, Lin Zhen had forty-five Variant Beast Crystal Nuclei, including five B-levels.

On the seventh day, Lin Zhen received one hundred and twenty Crystals, with sixteen of them from B-levels.

Half a month later, Lin Zhen had three hundred crystals in his hands, with forty of them from B-levels.

During this time, Lin Zhen also consolidated his strength, further understood combat, and began trying to practice the third layer of Nine Layers Spear River – Waterfall.

Moreover, his Mental Power had truly entered the Golden Early Stage, and the proportion of golden aura in his mind had reached ten percent.

During the day, he hunted monsters, and at night, Lin Zhen would sometimes go online.

Todav’s mobile Dhones are solar-Dowered. and the batterv can last for a month after a single charge, so there’s no need to carry a charger. Lin Zhen could always stay informed about Base City’s situation.

He knew that during this period, Base City had also encountered many incidents.

Firstly, outstanding students from various martial arts schools had also joined the Martial Artist Squads. For example, Fu Chengya and Shen Yuhua from Gale, Chen Jingchou from Changfeng, and Lei Ming from Dragon Slayer began to make their mark in the wilderness.

People like Meng Dong and Ouyang Yu had also entered the Wilderness Area to try and fight the monsters.

Half a month ago, the tragic incident in Yi Lan, yes, it was a tragedy, led to the annihilation of multiple Martial Artist Squads. For example, only Li Mengxi and Ruoruo from Demon God Squad returned to Base City.

Also, only Zhao Liang and Gao Yan from Demon Hunter Squad returned to Base

City. Lin Zhen couldn’t go back for now, and he didn’t know where Shi Lei and Ye Tiancheng had gone. He hadn’t spoken to them, but Zhao Liang had contacted them ten days ago, and they had lost contact since.

Old Hu from Gale Squad left the martial arts school and formed a small team called Chaotic Heroes with Li Tianhao and three other Advanced War Generals.

This team was very strong, with three Advanced War Generals, Old Hu as an

Intermediate War General, and Li Tianhao, who had been promoted to a Level Eight Fighter. They were considered top-notch among War General-level squads.

However, anyone who sees it clearly would know that these Advanced War Generals were bodyguards assigned by Li Tianhao’s parents to protect their young master’s safe and smooth growth and to prevent him from any danger.

Rumors were spreading in Base City about the various squads. Among which, the most talked-about was that Lin Zhen, the once top genius, had fallen in Yi Lan and would never return.

Many people even started a ranking of warrior-level fighters online, evaluating who was the best fighter in Ice City. Li Tianhao, Lei Ming, Chen Jingchou, and Fu Chengya all made the list, while Lin Zhen was unnoticed..
