"I said I wanted to come back to help in the battle, do you believe it or not?"
Su Xiaofan said with a sad face: "I'm sorry that I couldn't fight side by side with everyone..."
"Xiaofan, I can't blame you for this, and you have no obligation."
Yang Xiu really believed Su Xiaofan's words and quickly offered words of comfort.
"You kid, after being sold by him, you still have to help him count the money."
Yang Lao smiled bitterly and shook his head. If Su Xiaofan wanted to participate in this war, he would not have left more than two months ago.
He had also spent some time with Su Xiaofan, and Mr. Yang knew something about his character.
Su Xiaofan can't be said to be a person who can't afford to get up early without any advantage, but if it were really unprofitable, Su Xiaofan would probably have to sleep until noon before thinking about getting up.
To be precise, Su Xiaofan should be the kind of person who has his family, country and world at heart.
Yes, you read that right, it’s the family, the country and the world.
First of all, family is definitely the first priority in Su Xiaofan's heart. The interests of the family are considered first, and then the interests of the country.
As for the world, it must be considered incidentally after Su Xiaofan has considered the first two, and it also depends on his mood.
"What on earth are you doing here?"
Yang Lao glanced sideways at Su Xiaofan, "Now the Glacier Restricted Area is really inaccessible. Although your flying sword has a strong attack, it may not be able to break through the extraordinary polar bear's vital defense."
Now the king of the restricted area of the glacier, that is, the holy polar bear, is already extremely violent. He doesn't even need the core circle, and just stands guard at the entrance of the restricted area, preparing to kill the human cultivators.
"Mr. Yang, are there any beings beyond the Yangshen realm in the restricted area of the glacier? Are there any human cultivators?"
Su Xiaofan asked: "Those holy polar bears should also be at the evolutionary level of the Yang God Realm, right?"
Regarding the combat power of both sides, Su Xiaofan felt that there was a big discrepancy. There were only four holy-level polar bears, but they could actually defeat dozens of Yang Shen cultivators.
"Yes, they are mainly because their defense and attack are too strong and they have almost no weaknesses, so they are difficult to kill."
Mr. Yang nodded, "But it must not have exceeded the Yangshen realm, otherwise the cultivators in the restricted area would not be enough to see."
According to Mr. Yang, realm is not completely equivalent to combat power. Polar bears' own defensive talents are too strong, and cultivators of the same level can hardly do anything against them.
But if you are a cultivator in the realm above Yangshen, it will be completely different.
Starting from the Foundation Establishment stage, cultivators above Foundation Establishment are actually considered to have made a high-level life transition, but with each higher level, their strength will undergo earth-shaking changes.
Although I haven't heard of any cultivators with Nascent Soul strength on Earth, there is no doubt that no matter which level you really want to jump to, no matter how many Yang Shen cultivators there are, they won't be able to shake it in the slightest.
Regardless of whether it is a human being or an extraordinary creature, once an evolver of this level appears, it will undoubtedly defeat all creatures below the realm of the Yang God, including holy-level polar bears.
"There are absolutely no cultivators above Yangshen among the cultivators in the Glacier Restricted Area."
Mr. Yang's tone was very sure, "But I'm a little confused about Tieguaixian's cultivation. Maybe he has touched the threshold of the realm above the Yang God..."
Mr. Yang admired the boss of the Eight Immortals Sect very much, and this person did not leave the restricted area this time. After killing the holy polar bear, he fled towards the entrance of the restricted area.
"Xiaofan, if you really go to the Glacier Restricted Area, be careful not to get close to the core circle."
Mr. Yang's expression suddenly became solemn, "You know, there is a human force there, or those people are not human beings..."
"Huh? Mr. Yang, I don't quite understand what you are saying. Isn't he a human? Is he a ghost?"
Su Xiaofan was stunned for a moment after hearing this. People are people, and there are no ghosts in this world. Is it still a polar bear in human skin?
"There are no ghosts, but where is the Nascent Soul?"
Mr. Yang's face looked a little unsightly, "The current cultivation system is divided into two types, Yangshen and Jindan. Above Yangshen, there is a saying of ascension in the daytime, but where did those who ascended go? Can they come back again?
Woolen cloth?"
"Even now, you can see the remains of cultivators who ascended during the day. Do you know what these remains look like?"
"have no idea."
Su Xiaofan shook his head. The remains were corpses, something similar to mummies. He had no interest in this thing.
"On the spine behind the body, there is a hole about a foot long. In other words, only the spiritual consciousness has ascended, but the physical body has remained.
These bodies will not decay for thousands of years, are stronger than fine steel, and no sword can harm their bodies. Why would they leave such bodies behind?"
Mr. Yang's eyes were very complicated, as if he had thought of something, but was not sure.
"Mr. Yang, what do you want to say?" Su Xiaofan was still shaking his head, and Yang Xiu next to him also looked confused.
"I suspect that cultivators of the Yangshen system will no longer be able to stay in this space after breaking through the Yangshen system."
Mr. Yang took a deep breath, "But the place they left may not be passable by the physical body, so they can only abandon the physical body and go there with spiritual consciousness, which is the so-called ascension in the daytime..."
"Actually, Yang Shen has gone astray. The physical body and spiritual consciousness are equally important. Breaking the elixir and becoming a baby is the correct path for cultivators."
When Mr. Yang was talking, he looked a little confused, because although they were both Taoists, the internal debates had never stopped.
Therefore, the division of realms is very confusing now. Some people call themselves Yang Shen cultivators, while others call themselves Golden Pill cultivators.
But in the Yangshen and Jindan realms, there is not much difference between the two. It is only at the next level that the differences really appear.
Before the pre-Qin Dynasty, in the ancient times, there were thirty-six caves and seventy-two blessed lands, and there were countless powerful cultivators, and there was no such thing as the Golden Dan Yang God.
This difference appeared after the Pre-Qin Dynasty, because after the Pre-Qin Dynasty, the Age of Dharma Ending actually arrived, and the cultivators in the Cave Heaven Paradise left one after another without a trace.
As for the period after the end of the Ming Dynasty, it can actually be called the Forbidden Dharma Era, which means that the only three or five remaining cultivators have all left.
From the pre-Qin period to the late Ming Dynasty, the difference between Yangshen and Jindan appeared.
After the pre-Qin Dynasty, some great virtuous people often claimed that their time had come, and then they would find a secret place to leave their remains and die, claiming to ascend in the daytime.
Yang Shen cultivators, after breakthrough, you will reach the realm of ascension. It doesn't matter whether you want to ascend or not, there is a force in the dark that will take you away.
Several remains of this kind have been discovered in Zhongnan Shengxian Cave, and they are all well preserved to this day.
However, there were still several practitioners at that time, such as Dongfang Shuo in the Han Dynasty, Chen Chuan in the Five Dynasties, Zhang Sanfeng in the Ming Dynasty, and some other practitioners who left their names.
What they practiced was the golden elixir path, and in the end it was said that the physical body ascended, not the daytime ascension of Yang Shen cultivators.
However, although these cultivators who broke the elixir and became infants have saved their physical bodies, they seem to be unable to appear in this world again, and they don't know where they ended up.
The inheritance was cut off, and there were no more cultivators after the late Ming Dynasty. No one knew what happened, and no one knew what deviations had occurred among the cultivators after Yang Shen Jin Dan.
As far as Mr. Yang is concerned, he still prefers the path of breaking the pill and becoming a baby.
Because the physical body is the foundation, without the physical body, the spiritual consciousness is rootless duckweed, and there will definitely be big problems.
"Mr. Yang, do you mean that those people you are not sure are human beings are actually Yuanying or existences after ascending during the day?"
Although Su Xiaofan's words were difficult to pronounce, he made his meaning clear. Yang Xiu, who was standing by, also understood and couldn't help but change his expression.
"It's just suspicion. This suspicion comes from Tieguaixian."
Mr. Yang nodded with a solemn expression, "According to what Tieguaixian said, those people can enter the space crack at any time, but they seem to be unable to leave the vicinity..."
Tieguaixian has a feeling that those human bodies seem to be formed from a very pure energy body, but once this energy body leaves the space crack, it seems to collapse.
Therefore, Tieguaixian suspected that these people most likely had no physical bodies and came from the other side of the space rift.
But what puzzled Tieguaixian was that Tieguaixian had secretly transmitted messages, but those people seemed to be extremely frightened and immediately hid in the space cracks.
"Could it be that after passing through the space cracks and arriving in the restricted area, those people not only lost their physical bodies, but also lost the power of their spiritual consciousness?"
Su Xiaofan thought for a moment and then said: "They dare not touch the cultivators because the cultivators can bring them harm? And it is harm that extraordinary creatures cannot inflict?"
"It's possible, because if they still have the power of their spiritual consciousness and their cultivation is higher than that of the Yangshen, the pressure of their spiritual consciousness alone will make the cultivators unable to resist."
Su Xiaofan's words were exactly what Tieguaixian and others were suspicious of, so Tieguaixian did not leave the restricted area this time, but wanted to get in touch with those existences again.
What exactly happened in the Age of Ending Dharma, where did the cultivators at that time go, and whether the spiritual energy will return now that it has revived.
These are all unknown mysteries, and perhaps the answers can be obtained from those people.
"In short, the current restricted area of the glacier is very dangerous. Whether it is extraordinary creatures or other beings, you'd better not come into contact with them."
Mr. Yang finally gave Su Xiaofan a piece of advice. If their guess was correct, then no one knew whether those old monsters who had lived for many years had other methods.
"Okay, I came to Green Island this time to dig for treasures, and I definitely didn't go to the restricted area."
Su Xiaofan nodded and stated the purpose of his trip.
"Digging for treasure?"
Mr. Yang and Yang Xiu were stunned for a moment. What kind of treasure were they digging for? Is there an ancient monk's cave on Geling Island?
"It's a meteorite."
Su Xiaofan's words immediately relieved the two of them. They all knew that Su Xiaofan could absorb the energy from some rare meteorites to practice.
However, this is Su Xiaofan's unique talent, which others cannot envy. The only drawback is that he has to search for meteorites all over the world.
In front of the two of them, Su Xiaofan called Victor.
Upon hearing Su Xiaofan's self-introduction, Victor immediately shouted excitedly on the phone.
It could be heard that Victor was very happy for Su Xiaofan's trust.
Victor told Su Xiaofan that he still had some preparation work to complete, and in about three days the two of them would be able to embark on a treasure hunting journey.
After telling Victor where he was, Su Xiaofan asked him to come directly to him in three days.
Yang Lao and Yang Xiu left the next day after Su Xiaofan arrived.
Traveling with them were many cultivators who came out of the restricted area, and the plane to Damai Country and Green Island was almost completely full.
Su Xiaofan did not go to see him off because he also knew some forbidden cultivators.
If he didn't participate in the war when it started and only came here after it was over, people would think that he was here to pick up the slack.
…
"Hey Tom, nice to meet you my friend!"
Early on the third day, Victor came outside the villa where Su Xiaofan lived and greeted Su Xiaofan in an adult tone.
"I'm glad to see you too. The way you appear is so cool!"
Su Xiaofan stared blankly at the helicopter landing outside the yard and Victor who had just jumped out of the helicopter. His mind was a little confused.
Su Xiaofan seemed to remember that Frank told him that Victor was either sixteen or seventeen years old. By the way, did he have the qualification to pilot a helicopter?
Although this helicopter is not very big, with only room for two people, and looks like a large dragonfly, it is still something that can fly into the sky.
"Victor, when you talk about preparation, aren't you just preparing for this guy?"
Su Xiaofan walked out of the yard and patted the helicopter with his hand. Yes, it was a metal guy, not a big toy.
"Of course not. There was something wrong with my drilling rig. I sent it for repair and I just got it back yesterday."
Victor shook his head. He seemed to notice Su Xiaofan's doubts and said somewhat unhappily: "You don't think I can't drive it, do you?"
"Of course not. You have proven with your actions that you can completely control this guy."
Su Xiaofan knew Victor's character. The young man longed to be recognized by others, so he gave him plenty of face.
"But the cost of renting this big guy must be quite high, right?"
Su Xiaofan said, "How much does it cost? I can afford half of it, but I can't ask you to pay for it all. You know, we are partners digging for treasures together."
"This is the reward for a winter's work."
Victor said with a proud face: "I have been helping out at home for more than half a year, and the reward is that I can use it for a week..."
For a veteran like Su Xiaofan to trick a big boy like Victor, it would be so simple that all he had to do was start a conversation, and Victor would explain everything in a non-stop manner.
On Green Island, the main means of transportation is not a car, because many places are frozen all year round and there is no way to build roads.
The most convenient means of transportation on Green Island is the helicopter, so the best business on Green Island is the rental of helicopters.
Victor's family is engaged in the business of helicopter Zulun, and the business is quite large.
It is no exaggeration to say that Victor grew up on helicopters. At the age of fifteen, Victor obtained the helicopter piloting certificate.
After hearing what Victor said, Su Xiaofan felt that the thinking of foreigners was really a bit different from that of domestic people.
If Su Xiaofan guessed correctly, Victor seemed to have sold the few things given to him at the last flea market, with a total income of one hundred dollars.
For the sake of an income of one hundred dollars, Victor actually went to dig for treasure again. Not to mention anything else, the cost of the helicopter flight alone was probably several thousand dollars.
Even if the helicopter belongs to Victor's own family, the fuel cost is many times one hundred dollars.
"Come up quickly, haha, I'm very well prepared this time, we will definitely gain a lot."
Victor jumped onto the helicopter and waved to Su Xiaofan.
"I have a backpack to get."
Su Xiaofan went back to the house and got a backpack. This backpack was purely for cover, so that Su Xiaofan could easily take things out of the space bag.
"Victor, I think I should pay my share of the fees."
Su Xiaofan took out a stack of U.S. knives and said seriously: "I don't know how much this helicopter costs. Is three thousand U.S. dollars enough? You can't refuse. This is the cost I need to pay to dig for treasure!"
Su Xiaofan really couldn't take advantage of a child, let alone if he really dug something, his harvest would be far greater than Victor's.
"Well, Tom, you are right. Digging for treasure requires costs."
Hearing Su Xiaofan talk to him in an adult way, Victor was very happy. He pretended to think about it for a while and said: "I decided to accept the fee you paid, and we will share the treasures dug out equally!"
Although the family is quite wealthy, it has nothing to do with Victor. Three thousand US dollars is already a big sum for him.
This also made Victor more and more excited. Regardless of whether this trip was fruitful or not, with these three thousand dollars as a base, he would be able to brag to his friends when he returned.
It can be seen that Victor is very skillful in flying the helicopter, and the fuselage does not vibrate badly from starting to taking off.
This made Su Xiaofan think that the helicopter he built last time in China must have been flown by an armed helicopter pilot, and his movements were much wilder than Victor's.
The flying height of the helicopter is not high, only a few dozen meters above the ground, and there are no very tall buildings on Green Island, so this flying height is very safe.
In a short time, the helicopter sailed out of the town and arrived at the no-man's land of Green Island. Victor looked at the navigation system on the helicopter familiarly and adjusted the direction.
Compared with dog sledding, a helicopter can fly the same distance that a dog sled can cover in a day in just ten minutes. The speed between the two is completely incomparable.
Therefore, the dog sledding on Green Island is only one of the Eskimo tourism projects and cannot be used as a long-distance means of transportation.
The place Victor wanted to go was probably far away. After more than an hour of departure, the helicopter stopped in another town on Green Island.
It's time to refuel. The one-way distance of this small helicopter is about 300 kilometers, which is exactly one hour of flight time.
The gas station in this town was obviously owned by Victor's family, because when Su Xiaofan saw him filling up the gas, he didn't pay him at all and just drove away in the helicopter.
This time, Victor obviously wanted to ensure the fuel consumption of the helicopter's return flight. After driving more than a hundred kilometers, he landed the helicopter on the ice.
"It's right here, yes, it's right here!"
Jumping off the helicopter, Victor said excitedly: "This time I must dig out a big guy and show it to those people!"
"Is it here?"
Su Xiaofan also got off the plane, frowning slightly because he found that the aura of this place was a bit chaotic, and he couldn't see what was going on underground with his spiritual consciousness.
"Yes, it is said that a huge meteorite fell down here tens of millions of years ago. What we are looking for is that meteorite."
Victor returned to the helicopter and said, "Tom, help me take down the tools. This is the drill, the engineer shovel, and this metal detector. Be careful not to drop it."
It was obvious that Victor had made a lot of preparations for this treasure hunt and was very professional. At least Su Xiaofan had never seen the metal detector.
It was originally a joke trip, but after being treated so badly by Victor, Su Xiaofan started to take it seriously.
Apart from anything else, at least Victor behaved very professionally.
Su Xiaofan feels that those people in China who are also looking for food in the soil with Luoyang shovels must also keep pace with the times, and metal detectors must also be installed.
