"Xiao Xiao, come to Senior Lu'an's room and bring Mo Zixuan and Zhao Qingyao."
Su Xiaofan took out his cell phone and called his sister. With those two drops of monkey wine, the spiritual stone was dispensable to Lu'an.
After giving out her room number, Su Xiaofan hung up the phone before her sister could reply, so as not to shock the girl.
"Are you a maniac about doting on your sister?" Lu'an said with a smile, and also used a fashionable Internet term.
"I'm just a sister, I always hope she can be safe."
Su Xiaofan smiled bitterly and shook his head. In fact, he doted on his sister, not in that way, but in cultivating his sister's independence.
Su Xiaofan did not let his sister know about many things he did.
Just like raising tuition for Su Xiaoxiao, including improving her cultivation, Su Xiaofan did it in his own way. He didn't want his sister to feel dependent and lose her independence.
"This girl is quite thick-skinned. Master, you will scare her later."
Su Xiaofan knew that even though he was a cultivator in the Three Flowers Gathering Realm, even if he was a Yang Shen cultivator, his sister would not be afraid of him. His words were not very effective with Su Xiaoxiao.
This is also the sequelae of Su Xiaofan deceiving his sister too much. Now Su Xiaoxiao is always suspicious of his brother's words.
"Brother, you are back!"
A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door. Su Xiaofan opened the door and Su Xiaoxiao jumped in, followed by Mo Zixuan and Zhao Qingyao.
"Hello, Senior Lu'an."
As soon as the three of them entered the room, they greeted Lu'an first. After all, Lu'an was considered Mo Zixuan's boss in the relevant departments.
"Brother, why did you call us here?"
Facing Su Xiaofan at this time, both Mo Zixuan and Zhao Qingyao felt an invisible pressure, but Su Xiaoxiao still looked unrestrained.
This is the pressure that status brings to people. Even if Su Xiaofan has restrained his energy at this moment, Mo Zixuan and Zhao Qingyao, who know his true cultivation level, will still feel psychological pressure.
In addition, Mo Zixuan doesn't want to talk to Su Xiaofan now. After giving a few people a lesson that day and running away, Mo Zixuan felt that something was wrong the more he thought about it, as if he had been tricked by Su Xiaofan.
"You guys have improved your cultivation too quickly, which has led to an unstable foundation. There will be great disadvantages in your future cultivation."
Su Xiaofan said with a serious face: "You are all my close friends and relatives, and I can't just ignore it, so I discussed it with Uncle Lu'an to see how to help you eliminate this hidden danger."
"Brother, isn't there the Peiyuan Pill?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.
"Peiyuan Pill can only strengthen the foundation and strengthen the essence, but it still cannot completely make up for the damage to the foundation and meridians."
Lu'an said: "I got a spiritual stone before. This thing is extremely rare, much rarer than the inner elixir.
The spiritual energy in the spiritual stones is extremely refined and pure, which can help you repair the damage to your foundation and meridians, and the spiritual energy can also help with your cultivation.
But the spirit stone is a consumable item. After absorbing the spiritual energy inside, the spirit stone will be useless. If Xiaofan hadn't come to beg me, I wouldn't be willing to take it out for you to use!"
"Is there such a thing?"
Mo Zixuan was stunned when she heard Lu'an's words. She had never heard of spiritual stones before.
"The entire relevant department has no more than three spirit stones. Of course you don't know."
Lu'an waved his hand and said: "This spirit stone is my personal belongings. It's okay to give it to you, but you must not let others know."
"Yes, we won't talk nonsense."
Mo Zixuan hesitated for a moment and said, "But Senior Lu'an, we can't afford to redeem this thing."
"Exchange? Check the exchange album. Are there any spiritual stones that can be exchanged?"
Lu'an was amused by Mo Zixuan's words, "You don't need to exchange it. Shi Xiaofan helped you out. That's a matter between him and me, so you don't have to worry about it."
"ah?"
When the three girls heard this, they immediately looked at Su Xiaofan. At this moment, the image of her brother became radiant in Su Xiaoxiao's mind.
Mo Zixuan's previous anger towards Su Xiaofan naturally dissipated at this time.
It was something that Senior Lu'an regarded as a treasure. It showed how much Su Xiaofan had to pay to get Senior Lu'an to take it out. They owed this favor a lot.
"Ah, what, you have to practice hard in the future, you know?"
Lu'an put on the air of an elder, "Su Xiaoxiao's cultivation is the most frivolous. When you practice in the future, you will use spirit stones to assist you for three days, and both of you will use one day each. Do you understand that you use them alternately?"
The spirit stone belonged to Su Xiaofan, so Lu'an naturally had to take more care of Su Xiaoxiao, but he was telling the truth. Su Xiaoxiao's cultivation had improved the most, and her foundation had been damaged the most.
"You should go back to school tomorrow. Don't come out this year. Practice hard."
Lu'an waved his hand and said: "I will say hello to the school. After one year, I hope you can lay a solid foundation instead of improving your cultivation!"
"Yes, Senior Lu'an!"
Lu'an's words put a lot of pressure on several girls. Su Xiaoxiao took the spirit stone from Lu'an and kept it tightly in her hands for fear of dropping it.
"Okay, you can go back." Lu'an issued an order to expel guests.
"Brother, I have something to tell you." Su Xiaoxiao was a little afraid of Lu'an and pulled her brother out of the room.
"Xiao Xiao, let's go back first."
Mo Zixuan and Zhao Qingyao saw that the brother and sister seemed to have something to do, so they left first.
"What's the matter?" Su Xiaofan looked at his sister strangely.
"Dad called. He couldn't find you, so he called me."
Su Xiaoxiao curled her lips and said, "Dad said he would come back during the New Year and asked me to tell you."
"He didn't say where?"
Su Xiaofan felt angry, took out his cell phone and dialed his father, but the voice that came over there was that he could not get through.
"Said it was at sea, near Bermuda."
Su Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and said: "Brother, do you think my father is like you? In fact, he is a great master who has been pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger?"
"When did I pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger?"
Su Xiaofan rolled his eyes, "I was keeping a low profile. Do you understand? Dad is really pretending to be a pig. He didn't leak any news to us."
Su Xiaofan became very angry when he mentioned the father who cheated his son. He ran away for more than half a year without even a call, and he didn't know what he was up to.
Over the past ten years or so, my father has stayed at home for less than three months in total. I really don’t know if my sister and I are his biological children.
"Okay, you go back and practice hard."
Su Xiaofan waved his hand and said: "Don't promote your cultivation, you must suppress your realm. I have a lot of things in the past few months. Let's see you again when I go home during the Chinese New Year."
"Oh, brother, be careful."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Sister Zixuan keeps mentioning you these days. Is there something wrong with you?"
"Mo Zixuan?"
Su Xiaofan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, "What do I have with her? We are just friends. Haven't you seen that she is being mean to me all day long?"
"Hey, you're just going to be a bachelor." Su Xiaoxiao looked at her brother and sighed. I'm afraid this steely man is hopeless.
"Bah, I know how to beat up your brother?"
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao running away, Su Xiaofan muttered, "What I'm looking for is a Taoist companion. What do you know?"
"Uncle Liu'an, if you want to laugh, don't hold it in."
Back in the room, Su Xiaofan felt more and more depressed when he saw Lu An's constipated look.
"Master, did you hear what Xiao Xiaoxiao said just now?"
Su Xiaofan turned his hand and took out the purple gold gourd, sucked it with his palm, wrapped a drop of monkey wine with real energy, flicked it with his finger, and shot it into the tiger cat's mouth.
As early as when Su Xiaofan gave Liu'an the monkey wine, Duobao was jumping up and down, saying that he could not give it a drop of wine to improve his life.
"What a waste."
Seeing Su Xiaofan's actions, the corner of Lu'an's mouth couldn't help but twitch. Su Xiaofan actually fed Su Xiaofan this spiritual wine that no one could break his head to grab.
"Why waste it? Duobao can evolve again."
Su Xiaofan curled his lips. The physical bodies of extraordinary creatures are much stronger than humans, but their spiritual consciousness is weaker than humans.
Su Xiaofan gave Duobao this monkey wine in order to improve his consciousness so that he could communicate with him using his consciousness like the monkeys in the restricted area of Qingcheng.
"Meow..." Duobao happily rubbed his head against Su Xiaofan, then tilted his head and lay down directly.
"Uncle Liu'an, you should know something about my father, right?"
Su Xiaofan changed the topic, knowing that Lu'an must have heard the conversation between him and his sister.
"I know a little, but not much."
Lu'an thought for a moment and said: "I only know that there was a genius cultivator in Sujiacun back then, but he went abroad, but few people in the country knew about it."
"Is it my father?" Su Xiaofan's eyes flashed.
"Nine times out of ten it will be."
Lu'an nodded, "Actually, there are far more folk cultivators than the ones you have seen during this period. There are many, and they are all abroad..."
"What's out there?" Su Xiaofan asked in a deep voice.
"restricted area!"
Lu'an said: "There is a pattern in the restricted areas. The more desolate the area, the larger the restricted areas appear. So, speaking of it, the restricted areas in our country are not very big."
"A restricted area with a radius of hundreds or even thousands of kilometers is not that big?" Su Xiaofan raised his eyebrows. Lu'an's words were a bit unexpected.
"The Qingcheng restricted area is actually a small restricted area."
Lu'an smiled bitterly and said, "Do you know how big the restricted area we are planning to conquer is?"
"That restricted area covers six thousand square kilometers!"
Lu'an didn't wait for Su Xiaofan to speak, and continued: "And do you know how big the restricted areas in the oceans are? Some are even as large as one hundred thousand or even hundreds of thousands of kilometers!"
"There is such a large restricted area? How is this possible!"
Su Xiaofan took a breath. Several hundred thousand square kilometers were equivalent to the land area of a small country.
"How is it impossible? Our earth's ocean area is hundreds of millions of square kilometers."
Lu'an said: "In those restricted areas, extraordinary creatures abound, and some seem to have formed extraordinary forces, but I don't know the specific situation. The department has blocked this type of information very tightly."
"Does my master know?"
Su Xiaofan said: "Master said that he knows the restricted areas at home and abroad very well."
"He knows shit!"
Lu'an said angrily: "All he knows are the restricted areas in the interior. How are they different from those in our country? With his cultivation, he can't enter the real restricted areas at all."
"There are restricted areas abroad, so there are also practitioners, right?"
Su Xiaofan continued to ask. He found that his understanding of space cracks and restricted areas was still too superficial.
"Of course, but they call themselves evolvers."
Lu'an said nonchalantly: "These people are generally weak, and only very rare individuals are very powerful, but people like that should be in the restricted area."
"What is in the restricted area that will attract people to go there?"
Su Xiaofan also couldn't figure out why his father stayed abroad all year round. He wanted to get the answer from Lu'an.
"I don't know this either. Minister Hua must know it, and your father also knows it. You can ask them later."
Lu'an shook his head. The country has a department that is responsible for foreign affairs. The level is even higher than the relevant departments, but its whereabouts are quite mysterious, and Lu'an has never been in contact with it.
"Okay, I will ask my father when I see him."
Su Xiaofan nodded. Over the years, he always felt that his father had something on his mind. He used to think that his father was just running around to make money, but now it seems that is not the case at all.
"Where are you going these days?"
Lu'an said: "If you are fine, just protect me here. I plan to refine the monkey wine."
"Take it so soon?" Su Xiaofan didn't expect Lu'an to be so impatient.
"Why keep it? What if someone robs it?"
Lu'an glanced at Su Xiaofan and said, "Your master is not a good person. He will definitely rob it if he sees it!"
"Okay, uncle, you can go into seclusion and I'll guard you!" Su Xiaofan smiled and shook his head.
If there were only those two drops of monkey wine, the master would definitely snatch it away, but he still had dozens of drops in his gourd, so it was impossible for outsiders to forget about his own.
Su Xiaofan is not in a hurry to leave now, because Lu'an has said that there are still some meteorites being collected and they will be delivered in about a week.
After refining monkey wine in Lu'an, Su Xiaofan carried the sleeping tiger cat back to his room.
Su Xiaofan had already said hello over at the hotel, and no one would disturb Lu'an. Even if they did, Su Xiaofan, who lived upstairs in Lu'an, would be able to hear it in time.
During the days of seclusion in Lu'an, Su Xiaofan had been trying to figure out the art of weapon refining and sword control. Although he was still unable to practice it, he basically mastered the steps involved.
Especially the weapon refining technique, which is a completely different system from the cultivation method, but it also requires cultivation. Some advanced weapon refining techniques also opened Su Xiaofan's eyes.
Just like after reaching the Yangshen realm, you can use real fire to refining your own natal flying sword, and use spiritual thoughts to engrave magic circles on the flying sword. After being tempered by real fire, the flying sword can be directly upgraded to one level.
.
In other words, if the natal flying sword originally refined by Su Xiaofan was a magical weapon, then the flying sword refined by Yang Shenhou could become a treasured weapon, and its power would naturally be different.
However, these are still far away from Su Xiaofan. He couldn't even find all the materials for the flying sword, let alone refine it.
On the fifth day, the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo in Su Xiaofan's mind was successfully cultivated, and it appeared in Su Xiaofan's hand from the cultivation pool.
[The best Heavenly Thunder Bamboo: a tool-refining material that cannot be cultivated or repaired!]
"Item refining materials? Why have they become so small? Is this considered purified?"
Looking at the green bamboo in his hand, Su Xiaofan was a little surprised. He clearly remembered that the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo was only a foot long before it was sent for cultivation.
But the Thunder Bamboo that appeared on the palm was only two inches long. The original three bamboo sections were reduced to one, and it was about the same size as a pen in the hand.
Trying to look at Tianleizhu with his spiritual consciousness, Su Xiaofan suddenly felt a connection with his heart and soul, as if with just a thought, Tianleizhu could become what he wanted.
Su Xiaofan also discovered that the power of thunder and lightning wandering in the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo no longer seemed to reject him, and there was a faint feeling that it wanted to merge with him.
"It is said in the art of weapon refining that when refining the natal flying sword, the thunder bamboo needs to be dissolved. Can I just dissolve it directly without using the earth fire?"
Su Xiaofan used his spiritual consciousness to control the Thunder Bamboo, thinking about what it would look like after it melted.
Something happened that surprised Su Xiaofan. The Thunder Bamboo in his palm actually slowly dissolved and turned into a small ball of dark green liquid.
But when Su Xiaofan withdrew his consciousness, the liquid returned to the form of Thunder Bamboo.
"Can the accumulation pond also help refine refining materials?"
Su Xiaofan found that he still knew too little about the accumulation pool. The accumulation function of the repair system was far more than the accumulation skills and magic weapons. It seemed that there were more functions that had not been developed.
"With the help of the nurturing pond to refine the materials, the certainty of refining the natal flying sword can be increased to at least 80%!"
Su Xiaofan was also very happy to get the new function of repairing the system.
Because the most difficult part of making a weapon is the decomposition and fusion of materials. If these two steps go wrong, all previous efforts will be wasted. On the contrary, it is easier to form a flying sword.
Su Xiaofan should focus more on the weapon refining technique every day, because the sword control technique given to him by the ancestor of the Sword Sect directly controls the flying sword, and Su Xiaofan is not able to practice it now.
On the seventh day, Lu'an had refined and absorbed both drops of monkey wine, and Jing Shizhen also returned to the hotel.
When the two met, Jing Shizhen and Luan looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. They originally wanted to give each other a blow, but they didn't expect that both of them had made great progress.
After Lu'an refined the two drops of monkey wine, all the old diseases in his body were gone, and his whole body showed a surging vitality. His cultivation reached the peak of the early stage of foundation building, and he was only one step away from breaking through to the foundation building stage.
It's mid-term.
Although due to his limited qualifications, Lu'an is afraid that his cultivation in this life will be over until the Yin Shen leaves his body.
But compared to the previous tragic situation where lifespan was short and could even fall out of the foundation building stage at any time, Lu'an can be said to have regained a new lease of life.
Jing Shizhen has practiced in the restricted area for more than ten days, and the hidden danger of unstable foundation caused by forced advancement has been eliminated. His upper limit is similar to that of Lu'an, and he can practice to the point where the Yin Shen can leave the body.
After the two brothers stared at each other for a while like cockfighting, they each found a step and came down by themselves. They couldn't really go out and have a fight in front of Su Xiaofan.
The meteorites collected by people from Lu'an were also delivered. Among the forty-eight meteorites, twenty-six were rare meteorites that Su Xiaofan could absorb.
After absorbing all these meteorites, the repair value in his mind became 3300 points, which made Su Xiaofan smile constantly throughout the day and feel happy in his heart.
But Su Xiaofan's bottomless pit-like absorption made Lu'an collapse a little. This was all the meteorites he could find, but he still couldn't let Su Xiaofan advance.
After taking advantage of Su Xiaofan, he failed to feed Su Xiaofan. Lu'an also became angry. He planned to go to Yanjing to search for the meteorites there.
After Jing Shizhen got three drops of the monkey wine brewed by the old monkey, she decided to go back to Qingcheng restricted area for retreat, and then go with Zhao Yijian to complete the task of the relevant department.
Su Xiaofan also drove away, but instead of going to Luochuan, he drove directly to Kunlun Mountain.
In order to refine the Heavenly Thunder Stone for his natal flying sword, even if he had to bite the bullet, Su Xiaofan had to meet the giant ape again.
