Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Ming Yue's Gift in the Desperate Situation (Nine More Updates)

Lin Zhen dove headfirst into the leaves, originally hoping to teleport away continuously. However, he did not expect the leaves to wrap around him so quickly, as if they were alive. In the blink of an eye, he was tightly wrapped up with no gaps to be found.

Even the smallest gap to the outside world would have allowed Lin Zhen to leave by continuously teleporting. But under the completely isolated situation, he could not find another spatial coordinate to teleport to, so there was no way for him to leave.

Moreover, there was an even more dangerous situation. A drop of green liquid dripped from the leaves and landed on Lin Zhen's clothes.

“Zzzla!”

Lin Zhen's clothes instantly tore open a big hole, scaring him into throwing them off. If this green liquid got on his skin, just one drop could expose the bones underneath.

When the second drop of liquid fell, Lin Zhen tried to block it with a liquid metal shield, but as more and more liquid fell, he simply couldn't block it any longer, and even standing became impossible due to the water pooling underneath him.

During this time, he tried using liquid metal as a sword to cut through the leaves, but it was impossible. The toughness of the leaves was on par with the spatial barrier. It truly was an exotic species of extraordinary wonder.

Wrapped in a faint golden light, Lin Zhen sat cross-legged within the light sphere, allowing the acidic liquid to fall on him.

As the acid fell, it slid off the spiritual barrier like harmless rain. The spiritual barrier was indeed able to defend against the acid, saving Lin Zhen's life for the time being.

“What good is it to survive temporarily? In the end, I'll still die here when my spiritual power is exhausted. I can only maintain this barrier for at most one day and night. Before that, will there be any miracles?”

Lin Zhen racked his brains for a long time but couldn't find the means to break through the acid and leaves.

Maybe at his peak power, he could have evaporated the acid with the force of his lightning photons and ions, but now, he could not.

Perhaps if he could advance to become a War God, he could break the leaf ball.

However, he no longer had any Star Crystals. If only he had known earlier that Ming Yue had left, he would have absorbed another Star Crystal, advanced to become a War God, and then come here.

But that's how the world works, with such coincidences. He missed advancing by just one Star Crystal, and that might be an eternal regret for him.

However, Lin Zhen was not one to give up easily. He rummaged through his space ring, hoping to find a glimmer of hope.

After searching for a while, he didn't find any methods. He had even lost his Shiny Silver Spear; what more could he do?

He even found several crude Marching Stone rings in the space ring, obtained from defeating other Martial Artists.

He had already looked through the contents of the rings and found nothing of value, but he still searched with a glimmer of hope, only to end up disappointed.

Finally, he saw a ring.

This was also a Marching Stone ring. He had forgotten about it. It was the one Ye Lanshan had given him earlier, saying it was left behind by Su Mingyue.

“Ming Yue is truly smart and capable, thinking of a way to swap places with her senior sister behind the scenes. She must have returned to the Capital Base

City, as long as she is safe.”

“What could be inside this ring, something delicious or some secret technique?

Unfortunately, I don't have time to practice any techniques now.”

“Just take a look, maybe Ming Yue will give me a surprise.”

With that thought, Lin Zhen opened the ring…

Inside the ring was soil, filled with fresh green, bright light, star fire, silver glow, and unbelievably pure light flooding out…

The Martial Artists down below were cheering loudly, “Overlord has won!”

“Lin Zhen is finished. No one who enters the corrosive leaves has ever come out alive. He will absolutely rot until not even bone fragments remain.” “That's what you get for challenging the Overlord – this is the end!”

“Overlord is invincible, long live the Overlord!”

Yue Feng sat high up on a tree branch, not bothering with the martial artists below. In his eyes, they had no value.

He had already advanced to become a War God. He absolutely could not stay within the Star Fruit Tree for more than three days, or he would undoubtedly die. Before that, he absolutely needed to see Lin Zhen die.

Su Mingyue probably went back to the Capital Base City, back to God's Grace Cathedral.

If there was anyone who Yue Feng or his father Yue Zhenhua needed to be wary of, the Great Divine Sect in God's Grace Cathedral was undeniably one of them.

The Great Divine Sect was a Star Realm Expert, a contemporary figure with

Chen Fenglie, the number one expert, and was an old acquaintance of Yue

Zhenhua. With inscrutable power and the protection of the Great Divine Sect,

Yue Feng would not dare to run wild in the church even if Su Mingyue had truly returned to God's Grace.

In order to obtain Su Mingyue, he must get rid of Lin Zhen first, otherwise, he, Yue Feng, might not have any chance.

So he must see Lin Zhen die. He believed that no matter how, Lin Zhen could not possibly stay inside the Corrosive Tree Leaves for three days; maybe he would rot away in a while.

Those Corrosive Tree Leaves were incredibly tough, their strength was even close to that of Star Device Armor. Once wrapped inside, corrosive acid would automatically fall, and no one could last long inside. It was even more wishful thinking to try to break open the leaves. Only when the life inside had completely disappeared would the leaves open on their own.

This was also why the insects inside the Star Fruit Tree never ventured outside the tree; they simply couldn't leave.

He would watch right here, and only when he saw Lin Zhen die would he feel at ease.

But he had been waiting for an entire hour, and Lin Zhen still hadn't come out. Deep in the bushes, the ball of leaves encasing him still remained unchanged and hadn't dispersed.

Yue Feng couldn't sit still any longer and began pacing back and forth on the tree branch, wondering, “What's going on? What the hell is happening? Why hasn't Lin Zhen been corroded by the leaves? How did he manage to hold on?”

At this moment, a martial artist, who was also a spiritual mind master, flew up to the branch beside Yue Feng to comfort him, “Overlord, don't worry. These Corrosive Tree Leaves are incredibly terrifying. No matter if it's a person or any other object that enters, they'll never make it out alive. Lin Zhen might have some means to persist for a while, but he definitely won't last long.”

Yue Feng took a few deep breaths, “But it's already been an hour. No one has ever been able to persist inside for so long.”

This martial artist had originally intended to flatter Yue Feng, but he couldn't answer this question. After hesitating for a moment, he scratched his head, “Could it be that this batch of leaves doesn't have any corroding effects?”

Yue Feng's eyes lit up, “That's a real possibility… But we can find out by testing it.”

“That's a good idea. How do we test it?” The martial artist looked up and asked.

“Hehe! You volunteered to come here. Are you planning on sacrificing yourself for the Overlord and taking the initiative to become the test subject?”

The martial artist's face paled instantly, “No, no, no! Don't joke, Overlord. I'll go down and bring up a dead body for you to test.”

“But the Overlord can't wait any longer. Just go!”

With that, Yue Feng forcefully grabbed the spiritual mind master's clothes and threw him into the Corrosive Tree Leaves.

The man screamed, but before his scream could finish, he was wrapped up by the Corrosive Tree Leaves, with his cries muffled inside.

The leaves kept wriggling, and in less than a minute, they automatically dispersed, revealing a puddle of foul-smelling pus.

A five-fold compressed spiritual mind master was just used by Yue Feng as an experimental subject and reduced to nothing but bones.

The martial artists below saw this scene and were horrified.

At present, Yue Feng was like a barrel of gunpowder ready to explode. Moreover, he would soon be leaving the Star Fruit Tree, making him even more unrestrained. Everyone was silent, not even daring to flatter him.

No one dared to move or leave. They all stared dumbfounded at the ball of Corrosive Tree Leaves, praying in their hearts that the leaves would open sooner.

Once Lin Zhen was dead, Overlord Yue Feng's temper would probably subside, and they could be released sooner.

After killing someone and testing that the Corrosive Tree Leaves were still as deadly as before, Yue Feng felt somewhat relieved, knowing that Lin Zhen wouldn't be able to escape.

The fight earlier had also drained him, so he simply sat there to slowly recover while waiting for the results.

As he waited, time passed slowly…

Two hours, and Lin Zhen still hadn't come out.

Three hours, and still, there was no movement from Lin Zhen. The ball of leaves seemed dead there, unmoving, as if it had encased a stone.

After five hours, Yue Feng became as restless as ants on a hot pot. Night had fallen, and there remained no sign from Lin Zhen. What if he escaped during the night?

Fortunately, the weather was on his side. The bright moon that night cast silver moonlight on the ball of leaves, making it still clearly visible.

Yue Feng stayed awake, staring at the ball of leaves until midnight. His eyes were sour and his legs were numb, but he still didn't see any signs of Lin Zhen coming out or any evidence of decomposition.

“What's going on? I'm even getting sick of staying here. The atmosphere of the Star Fruit Tree is repelling me. It seems that the saying that three days is enough to kill someone is definitely true. I just became a War God this morning and spent a long time adjusting my breath. It's been a day and a night since then, and this uncomfortable sensation has only gotten heavier. I probably won't be able to last three days.”

“At most, two days. Regardless of whether Lin Zhen comes out or not, I must leave. After all, my own life is most important.”

At this moment, Yue Feng didn't even have the energy to be angry. Every extra minute he spent here was torture. If not for the need to wait for the results, by now he would have returned to Capital Base City.

He rubbed his space ring, the snake on it hissing.

Time flowed by slowly. The once clear night sky gradually became overcast, obscuring the bright moon, and another thunderstorm was approaching within the Star Fruit Tree..
