"Exert your body skills upwards, the speed is a little slower."

It took Su Xiaofan a little longer to get to the top of the peak, because there were many places where it was difficult to rely on strength. It took Su Xiaofan a few minutes to reach the top of the peak.

But if it were an ordinary person climbing to the top, it would probably take two or three hours if they were in good physical condition.

As for the cultivators, it will take more than an hour for the cultivators of the Little Zhoutian to climb up. As for the cultivators of the Great Zhoutian, it may take about ten minutes to climb up.

Standing on the open platform at the top of the peak, Su Xiaofan felt that the meeting time was set so early.

In Su Xiaofan's view, the relevant departments just want to dominate people like him.

Qingcheng can be accessed by cableway, but at 6:30, the cableway will undoubtedly not be open.

Depending on the level of cultivation, if you want to attend the meeting on time, your climbing time will naturally be different.

People like Dong Dong who are in the early stage of Qi training will probably have to get up at five o'clock to climb the mountain. Otherwise, according to the rules set by the relevant departments, if they are late that day, they will not be able to participate in the exchange that day.

At this moment, a venue has been set up on the main peak. There is a high platform that looks like a ring, and there are more than ten rows of seats guarding the high platform.

Su Xiaofan made a rough count and found that it could seat more than two hundred people. It seemed that this was the number of people attending this exchange meeting.

"The Qingcheng restricted area should be over there."

Su Xiaofan stood on the top of the peak and looked around, with a panoramic view of the surrounding scenes.

Tens of kilometers to the west from the main peak, there is a place where there are mountains of fog. If Su Xiaofan guessed correctly, that place should be the Qingcheng restricted area.

"Let's go..." Su Xiaofan called Duobao and left the main peak.

Before returning to the hotel, Su Xiaofan received a call from Master and asked for his room number.

"Master, Aunt Mei, and Uncle Liu'an are here too."

When Su Xiaofan returned to the hotel, he found several people waiting at the door of his room. He quickly swiped his card to open the door and let them in.

"You kid, your apartment is more spacious than mine."

Entering the suite, Jing Shizhen immediately expressed his dissatisfaction. The place where he and Aunt Mei lived was a one-bedroom and one-living room suite, but Su Xiaofan's place was actually a two-bedroom and one-living room.

"Master, I paid for it myself!"

Su Xiaofan smiled and brought bottles of water to several people, then returned to the sofa and sat down.

Duobao lay down next to Su Xiaofan, slapped the remote control of the TV, and then clicked the button with his little paw to change the channel.

"You...you tiger cat, are you already an extraordinary creature?"

Seeing Duobao's actions, Uncle Liu'an's eyes almost popped out of his head. This cat is so spiritual.

"Probably not yet, it's only been about half a year since it was born."

Su Xiaofan shook his head. Duobao now only possesses some characteristics of extraordinary creatures, but its overall strength is still far behind.

"Did you get it from Shuangmen Village?"

When Lu'an asked, his eyes turned to Jing Shizhen.

"Yeah, how about it? Do you still want to go back?"

Jing Shizhen curled her lips and said: "Who said there are no extraordinary creatures in Shuangmen Village? If you make a mistake, don't blame me for taking advantage."

"Okay, you old guy, I'm not here to quarrel with you."

Lu'an's fiery temper actually didn't get angry when he heard Jing Shizhen's push, which made Su Xiaofan quite interesting. The relationship between the two did not seem to be as tense as it appeared on the surface.

"Two old men have been arguing for a lifetime. Xiaofan, please don't laugh."

Aunt Mei came out to smooth things over and said with a smile: "Don't think they will quarrel as soon as they meet, but if something happens to one of them, the other one will be willing to risk his life to help."

"Bah, who would?"

Jing Shizhen and Lu'an stared at each other with disdain on their faces.

"Okay, just hold on."

Aunt Mei smiled, the two brothers quarreled as soon as they met, but they were true life-and-death friends.

Jing Shizhen is unwilling to join the relevant departments, but Lu'an has always been thinking about helping him get an inner elixir for extraordinary creatures. However, in recent years, the relevant departments have not been able to successfully hunt extraordinary creatures, so this matter has never been done.

success.

But what Aunt Mei knew was that Lu'an and Jing Shizhen went to the restricted area more than once in private. Once, Lu'an was seriously injured and almost lost half of his life. After returning, he spent two years recovering.

"Master, Uncle Liu'an..."

"Call me Uncle Master. He is three days older than me. What do you call me Uncle Master?"

"Isn't it big enough to be three days old? Who followed me and called me brother after me when I was a kid?"

Before Su Xiaofan could finish his sentence, the two of them started arguing again, and it sounded like Su Xiaofan's head was not as big as usual.

"Okay, Xiaofan is a junior, you don't mind being embarrassed." It was Aunt Mei's words that made both of them shut up.

"Ahem, I wonder, Master, why do you want to see me when you come here?"

Su Xiaofan finally said a complete sentence, "If you have anything to do, just call me and I'll be there, so there's no need for all the elders to come here."

‘I’m not looking for you, this old guy is looking for you.”

Jing Shizhen shook his head and pointed at Liu'an.

"Master, what's wrong?" Su Xiaofan looked at Lu'an.

"Well, Xiaofan, are you really a foundation-building cultivator?"

Lu'an said with a solemn expression: "This is your master's three-flower gathering state. Have you really reached it?"

The relationship between Lu'an and Jing Shizhen was different from others. He knew Su Xiaofan's true cultivation level, but during this meeting, Lu'an could not feel any fluctuations of true energy from Su Xiaofan.

This can only explain two problems. The first is Su Xiaofan's skill in practicing the breath gathering technique.

The second thing is that Su Xiaofan's cultivation level is still better than his own, otherwise the breath gathering technique alone would not be able to hide his cultivation level so deeply.

"Yes, uncle."

Su Xiaofan glanced at his master and released a bit of energy helplessly. The realm of three flowers gathering on top of the second layer of earth flowers was immediately revealed.

"Good boy, take it seriously!"

Lu'an protested, "Back then, your master and I were pretentious, but we were trapped in the realm of the Great Zhoutian for decades. I didn't expect you to break through at such a young age. This is really better than the master!"

Lu'an and Jing Shizhen are both the most dazzling geniuses of their generation. When they were in their twenties, they had already reached the Great Zhoutian realm.

However, the shackles of heaven and earth that prevented them from cultivating since the Ming Dynasty have kept the two from being able to break through.

In the end, Lu'an joined the relevant departments, completed many tasks, and obtained the inner elixir of extraordinary creatures twenty years ago, which was a breakthrough.

But with greater ability comes greater responsibility. After his breakthrough in cultivation, Lu'an was seriously injured in several subsequent missions, causing his cultivation to remain at the early stage of foundation building.

"How about it? Do you want to join the relevant department? The resource problem for your future cultivation will be solved."

Lu'an looked at Su Xiaofan eagerly. He was now one of the top decision-makers of the relevant departments. It was only natural to recruit Su Xiaofan for the department.

"Just join."

Su Xiaofan shook his head and said: "Uncle, Master and I have the same temperament. When the country calls for something, I have no obligation to refuse, but I am still used to being lazy..."

The resources Su Xiaofan needs are different from what others imagine. He does not need restricted areas to practice, nor does he need pill skills.

Su Xiaofan only needs cultivation points, or rare meteorites that can be recharged. As for other things, they are not of much help to Su Xiaofan.

"Lu'an, don't come here to confuse my disciples. I don't want to see what you are like now."

Jing Shizhen said angrily: "You have seven injuries and eight tuberculosis, and your cultivation level has almost fallen back to the Great Zhoutian. They are using you until you die, so you are stubborn!"

"Uncle's injuries are quite troublesome."

Su Xiaofan carefully looked at Lu'an using the technique of observing Qi, and found that the fluctuations of Qi on his body appeared to be very disordered, and his breathing was somewhat uneven. Logically speaking, these conditions should not appear in a high-level cultivator.

"Alas, there is no other way. There was a riot in the restricted area of ​​Dayun Province some time ago. Extraordinary creatures came out and we could only fight for one."

Lu'an smiled bitterly, looked at Su Xiaofan and said: "Xiaofan, there is no such thing as peaceful years in this world. The reason why you think so is because someone is carrying a heavy burden..."

"Bah, you're uneducated and you still speak so politely."

Jing Shizhen didn't give Lu'an any face, "Did I just go on a trip when I was at the border? Who stopped those surrendering troops? Don't just take all the credit for yourself."

"Uncle, what happened to the riot in the restricted area? How could an extraordinary creature come up with it?"

Su Xiaofan had no interest in the chicken soup for the soul instilled by Master Lu'an. Every loss must be rewarded. Wang Yangming, the last sage in China, had died long ago.

The reason why Lu'an is so exhausted is that he certainly has a sense of responsibility, but the inner elixir he received back then was not for nothing. It was an exchange of equal value, but Lu'an had to pay a little more.

Su Xiaofan's focus is still on what Master Lu'an said above. It is a big deal for extraordinary creatures to riot in the restricted area and want to come out.
