Chapter 995: Chapter 998 Buddhist Light Zen Temple_1 Chapter 995: Chapter 998 Buddhist Light Zen Temple_1 The distinction between Napolet and Earth lies in the fact that the cities here are not as modern.

The highest building in the entire ruins of Sanjiang City is the Buddhist pagoda of the Buddhist Light Zen Temple.

There are surprisingly few mutated beasts along the way, but many corpses of mutated beasts can be seen.

It is obvious that many people have already arrived here before.

“Make way, make way!

My hovercraft doesn’t watch where it’s going!”

Lin Zhen moved aside, and a figure soared past him, foot on a shuttle-shaped weapon.

A nearby War General Level sneered: “What’s the big deal, he’s just a Spiritual Mind Master.

…

I’ve seen a dozen of them.”

“You’d better keep your voice down.

This is a War God Level Spiritual Mind Master who cultivates both Dantian Qi and spiritual power.

We can’t afford to provoke him.”

“I know…

But when I think of so many people coming to the Buddhist Light Zen Temple to snatch the crystal nucleus from the monk zombies, I feel blocked, fearing we won’t achieve much.”

“Yeah, the Buddhist Light Zen Temple was initially overlooked because it was too hard to fight.

Now because of Ancestor Fierce Fire’s demand, people are swarming here.

There might be some fights.”

“Fights can happen.

As long as we don’t engage with War Gods and those Spiritual Mind Masters, I believe we will still gain something.”

By the time Lin Zhen arrived at the gate of the Buddhist Light Zen Temple, there were already quite a few people here.

The towering gate plaque still stood tall after a thousand years, but the blotchy blood stains on it and the pile of white bones on both sides made the Buddhist gate appear terrifying and eerie.

Inside the Sanjiang urban area, mutated beasts rampage, but strangely, none appeared around the Buddhist Light Zen Temple.

There were conflicts between mutated beasts and zombies.

The zombies at the Buddhist Light Zen Temple were too powerful, and even the mutated beasts didn’t want to provoke them.

So, there was a narrow strip of land around the Buddhist Light Zen Temple, which can be considered a safe zone.

By the time Lin Zhen arrived, there were already dozens of people in the safe zone.

Some were contacting others to form a team to enter the temple, while some were just observing.

Lin Zhen didn’t want to form a team, nor did he pay attention to the people around him.

Instead, he stepped forward and arrived at the gate plaque.

The eyes of the people around followed Lin Zhen, watching him walk into the temple.

A one-eyed war general martial artist licked his lips, and said to his companions, “Look, an arrogant high-level warrior.”

A War General beside him said, “He’s too low-level, not much of a big catch.

Following him might not yield much.”

“Let’s see how it goes first, such a person doesn’t interest me.”

“I bet ten thousand, he won’t last five minutes before he comes running out.”

“Ha!

I bet a hundred thousand that he will never come out.”

The others were also indifferent.

In the eyes of ordinary people, a high-level warrior didn’t value much, and it was not worth fighting over him.

*********

After passing through the towering stone stairs behind the gate plaque, Lin Zhen finally entered the temple.

“Master, I have now fully researched the interior of the Buddhist Light Zen Temple.”

“Let’s hear it.”

“The Buddhist Light Zen Temple was originally Napolet star’s martial arts Holy Land.

All monks here are highly skilled in martial arts and are mainly divided into four levels.”

“The monks in this front courtyard are all novice monks, disciples per se, basically at the Warrior Level, led by a single War General Level monastic from Arhat Hall.

They are quite numerous.”

“Beyond the front yard is the Arhat Hall with monks of some skill, all at the War General Level, with a leader at the War God Level.”

“In the back courtyard is the Prajna Hall.

There are not many monks there, but all are at the War God Level, led by a Dharma Hall’s Star Realm monk.”

“Finally, there’s a small courtyard, the Dharma Hall, where a few Star Realm Monks and the Abbot reside.

The Abbot seems to have a Meteor Stage cultivation.

And he has the ability to resurrect other monks, which is why the Buddhist Light Zen Temple has not been eliminated after all these years.

This Abbot proves to be quite challenging.”

Lin Zhen nodded, “No matter how challenging, we have to confront him one way or the other.”

Moving forward, Lin Zhen soon saw the first monk zombie.

This was a young monk in a grey robe, shambling forward.

If not for the terrifying face after mutation, this zombie could be considered relatively intact.

To deal with a zombie of warrior level, even though Lin Zhen’s current level was not high, it did not require much effort.

He lunged forwards, a simple thrust of the spear!

When the tip of the spear penetrated the body, there was a slight resistance.

Lin Zhen even saw a faint golden light flashing on the monk’s forehead when the spear pierced through it.

This was probably the effect of the Gold Body Decision that the monks of the Buddhist Light Zen Temple had practised.

But such a level of resistance could not change anything.

Lin Zhen killed the zombie with one spear and took out the crystal nucleus from its body.

After holding the crystal nucleus in his hand, Lin Zhen felt a slight agitation in his Origin.

“Activity…

The crystal nucleus of this humanoid zombie does indeed have activity, which is beneficial for the fission of the Origin.”

“But the energy contained in this tiny crystal nucleus is too little to have any substantial change on the Origin.”

At this moment, Lin Zhen saw a golden light shooting from afar, falling on the body of a zombie on the ground.

The zombie’s crystal nucleus began to heal slowly under the golden light, and it was estimated that it would resurrect within a day.

“Sure enough, there’s some trick to it.

These zombies even retain many of their habits and abilities from when they were alive.

The crystal nucleus of that Meteor Stage’s abbot must be very powerful!”

Lin Zhen continued to move forward.

There were not a lot of zombies in this first courtyard, but there were bodies everywhere.

Apparently, it had already been swept by someone.

He didn’t bother to stay here and passed through the gate, heading straight for the next courtyard.

Past through a moon-shaped archway, he quickly reached the next courtyard.

There was a grand hall called Arhat Hall ahead, and inside the courtyard, there were many martial arts weapons for practicing.

Just as Lin Zhen stepped into the courtyard, several topless zombies turned their heads.

Upon seeing Lin Zhen, these zombies immediately let out a howl from their throats and charged at Lin Zhen with their weapons.

“As expected, the higher-level zombies are more unusual.

These zombies actually know how to use weapons!”

Lin Zhen flicked his spear, took an arrow step forward, and launched a thrust at one of the incoming zombies!

Lin Zhen’s thrust was the simplest but also the most practical spear technique.

It brought out the sharpness and invincibility of the spear to the utmost, making simplicity as complexity!

A War General-level zombie facing Lin Zhen’s spear couldn’t resist much and was pierced through the throat by Lin Zhen’s spearhead!

However, this zombie grabbed Lin Zhen’s spear when it was pierced into the throat!

With a large open mouth, it howled but didn’t move.

“Damn it!

These guys actually know how to cooperate.

It’s stalling for its companions!”

Seeing the other zombies approaching, Lin Zhen decisively gave up the spear, a flash of light in his hand, and with one long sword strike, killed the two zombies approaching him.

He didn’t know when he had learned sword skill, but he instinctively knew how to.

Once again, with a sword, he killed the zombie that was holding onto the spear, took back his spear.

“These War General-Level zombies don’t pose much of a threat to me.

The only concern is their cooperation.

I should be more careful in the future.”

After extracting several crystal nuclei from the War General-level zombies, they were much stronger than those of the Warrior-level, but they still couldn’t satisfy Lin Zhen’s original requirements.

With a thought, an aura emanated from the origin, directly absorbing and dissolving the crystal nuclei.

Despite a few surges of vitality input, the origin only showed slight changes.

“If you say that 100 points of energy are needed to fully activate the origin, these active energy can’t even reach 0.1 percent.

I need to find more crystal nuclei.”

Lin Zhen looked down on Warrior and War General-level crystal nuclei.

He wanted to go to the third courtyard and find the War God.

Although there was still a big gap between his current strength and the War God, Lin Zhen believed that with his extraordinary martial skills and combat experience, the War God was not unbeatable.

********

Lin Zhen escaped into the river.

Two people stood by the river, one of them, a metal life-form had red light in its eyes, scanning carefully.

“Beep beep beep….”

After a series of alarms, the metal life-form stopped.

“Sharang, have you found anything?”

“Yes, I found something.

According to previous photo comparisons, there was a stone here that was swallowed by a fish and then taken downstream.”

The metal life-form said, passing the picture of the fish to the long-haired man next to him.

The long-haired man immediately remembered what the fish looked like, then covered the river with his spiritual power and searched for this specific fish from the numerous school of fishes.

“Found it!

7,000 meters downstream!”

The two people teleported and arrived directly 7,000 meters away.

The long-haired man raised his hand, and a fish was already in his hand.

It was the fish that Lin Zhen had used to escape with.

With a sweep of spiritual power, he easily found the scar that had been in the fish’s belly.

“The Ancestor guessed right.

Lin Zhen must have thought of a way to escape.

That’s why he asked us to come and help look for him.

Look, there was something that left this fish’s stomach.

That’s undoubtedly Lin Zhen.”

The long-haired man said to the metal life-form: “Sharang, can you find Lin Zhen based on this trace of Qi?”

The metal life-form carefully scanned inside the fish’s stomach and nodded, “Definitely.

I’m not a flesh and blood life-form, regardless of how Lin Zhen changes, he and I are different.

I can find him based on this trace of Qi, but it will take some time.”

“Good, as long as you can find him.

I’m certain Lin Zhen is still on this planet.

I estimate his current Realm is World King.
