368: Take a two-year break and then go back

Eighth War Zone, Tianhe Pass.

There's an old, vine-covered house here, one of many such houses in Tianhe Pass, just as many houses in Shanhai Pass are uninhabited.

A gentle warm sun shone through the glass window onto a man so old he looked like he could die any second.

The old man sat at a clean and tidy desk, with a confidential letter and a cup of light green drink by his hand.

Xiao Fan held Chen Changsheng's confidential letter, which contained many things.

"The confrontation between the Super God Class and the Demon King Group this time exposed the Ghost Race as an internal spy."

"Furthermore, since you, the one with that flame, are now dead, there will be many major movements among the alien races, and the border might actually be stable for a period."

"Let Helden handle these matters himself. That's right, Helden's stance is with the Planet Will."

"Old Ke and I have already left Blue Star. We have more important things to do and cannot stay by your side for too long. Also, there's a chance someone might discover you're not dead, so we couldn't wait for you to wake up to tell you these things personally."

"Don't worry, I know what you want to ask."

"Shao Yan is right by my side."

"Her Fusion with the Alpha Armor is about to enter its most difficult stage because Shao Yan told us that the Alpha Armor has a Will, is a living creature, and is also a powerful alien race."

"Now, the alien race has been strongly stimulated and woken up. The two are fighting for control of the body, absorbing each other's memories."

"If Shao Yan can completely Fuse with the Alpha Armor, we will be able to know many enemies and secrets from the Universe in advance, which is truly an unexpected surprise."

"The reason the Alpha Armor came to Blue Star has now also been confirmed. This mysterious substance can bring powerful strength to anyone of any Realm, including Martial Emperors, and it does not conflict with other powers."

"Therefore, its purpose is to become the weapon of Blue Star's strongest, and then control this strongest person on Blue Star."

"Speaking of which, you should be asking about another alien creature."

"Xie Linqing!"

"With our help, she has gradually recovered some memories. She seems to be the empress of an ancient great clan from outer space, and then, in order to enter the Galaxy, she paid the price of losing all her power, but she didn't expect to lose even her memories."

"But these memories are still very vague and need to Awaken slowly."

"At least it can be confirmed that her background is also extremely extensive."

"And after discussing these matters, it's time to talk about your situation."

"Two years!"

"For at least two years in the future, Xiao Fan cannot appear before the world. This time might even be longer."

"We cannot let the alien creatures among the foreign races know that you are still alive, otherwise many things will fall short, and you will once again fall into those conspiracies."

"Now, besides Helden, me, the Priest, Zhuge Tianming, and the Great General, no one knows you are still alive, including Lin Xianhuo, the Demon War God, and so on…"

"During this time, no matter how much those old friends miss you, you cannot appear, absolutely not!"

"Okay?"

"Okay!"

"I answered for you."

"Then, your current identity, information, etc., I have already arranged for you. They are in the desk drawer."

"The reason I sent you to the Tianhe War Zone is because an old man named Zhou lives here. He possesses the only set of Martial Arts in the Galaxy that can train Mental Energy, but this set of Martial Arts seems to have a very big drawback. He cannot take it out, nor is he willing to share it with us."

"I know that flame is closely related to Mental Energy."

"So, the path is laid out for you; you figure it out yourself."

"Next, let's talk about the Super God Class's upcoming matters."

"Things like team battles and individual battles will definitely be canceled. Then, your team members will go to various Secret Realms outside Blue Star to Cultivate, and confrontations with the alien races will be inevitable."

"Now, the number of people in the Demon King Group is almost half that of the Super God Class, so you don't need to worry about the safety of your team members."

"Moreover, the Dignity Battle still has to be fought. This was proposed by the alien races themselves. Even at this point, they still want to fight, which can only mean they still have cards to play. However, everything will also accelerate; it will start in at most two more years."

"Finally, let's talk about your physical condition."

"In the right drawer of the desk, there is a Storage Ring containing over 700 bottles of Life Liquid, made from the roots of the Life Tree."

"The Priest added some soda water and fruit juice to this Life Liquid. He said it would taste better that way. It sounds like he used to drink it often."

"Anyway, there are over a dozen flavors, you can change them daily."

"And these more than 700 bottles of Life Liquid are completely sufficient to replenish all your lifespan."

"But!"

"Now your body is like a shattered straw hut, collapsing with a gust of wind. Even if you want to repair it, you cannot touch it too hard; you must do it slowly, bit by bit."

"Currently, you can drink at most half a cup a day. After half a year, you can drink one cup. After a year, you can drink two or three cups."

"Even if the drink is delicious, don't be greedy, or there will be danger."

"Furthermore, activities like Cultivating your Realm, elements, etc., cannot be done. At least half a year later, you can engage in some weak activities."

"As for Cultivating with the Martial Arts 'Beyond,' that will be at least a year later, when your lifespan has recovered by sixty to seventy percent."

"So, I suggest you rest for two or three months, and then go to Tianhe City to find that old man Zhou. Perhaps, you can even hire a servant with money?"

"You don't need to worry about money either. Your original card definitely cannot be used anymore. In the drawer where you keep your ID, there is a card with a lot of merit. As for how much, I'm not sure, because it's linked to the Great General's main card."

"You probably won't be able to spend it all."

"Last but not least."

"The Dao ahead is long and arduous; let us encourage each other!"

"PS: There are many clothes in the wardrobe, you should like them."

Xiao Fan read this and subconsciously wanted to burn the letter in his hand, but he found that he couldn't even mobilize the fire element.

Hmm…

He sighed helplessly, then opened the cabinet where his ID was kept.

Inside, there was a lighter, it seemed his elder brother had anticipated this.

Xiao Fan smiled wryly, burned the letter, took a sip of plum-flavored Life soda, stood up with difficulty, and opened the wardrobe next to him.

There were more than a dozen sets of clothes inside, but Xiao Fan couldn't help but laugh.

All shirts paired with beach shorts.

Orange, blue, yellow, and even pink…

How much did he love this combination?

After shaking his head, Xiao Fan happened to see a line of small text carved next to the wardrobe.

"Don't laugh, try it, it's really comfortable."

Xiao Fan: "…"

Finally, he put on an orange beach set, looked into the full-length mirror by the door, and ran a hand through his hair.

Although the figure in the mirror was incredibly old, with a head full of white hair and a face mottled with wrinkles.

But his eyes were still full of spirit.

For the next year, he could hardly do any Cultivation or progress.

But it didn't matter.

Since he could Beyond once, and crush once.

What was so difficult about a second time?

Finally, Xiao Fan revealed a confident smile.

He softly said, "Rest for two years, then return."
