Set up a funeral service team in a foreign land

Chapter 115 Exploration, Deep in the Cave

The group slowly walked to a nearby teahouse.

In the private room, the boxes of pastries were piled high in front of the young man in white. Xi Sui'an, who was standing opposite him, could only see a few of Xuan Lin's hair tips.

She propped her chin up and took a sip of tea, then asked curiously, "What do you mean by saying that the opportunity to become an adult is in the human world?"

Xuan Lin paused, raised his head from the snack box, and his eyes revealed a trace of grief and anger: "Actually, I also want to know what this is."

The two guys in front of him are from the External Relations Department. If he exposes his shortcomings in front of them and Li Qing finds out later, will he laugh at him again?

Xuan Lin gritted his teeth or changed his expression hesitantly for a moment, and finally sighed deeply.

“Forget it, everyone knows it.

"For us Qilin people, the time it takes to grow up and become adults varies. The reason is that the opportunities for us to become adults are completely different. For some, it's so easy that we can just change our names, while for others, it's so difficult that we die as teenagers."

"I'm a typical example of the difficult situation." Xuan Lin put a spoonful of sticky red beans into his mouth and said reluctantly.

Xi Sui'an was stunned. She had always thought that Xuan Lin's adolescence was very long. Could it be that his way of adulthood was so idealistic?

"I have traveled all over the foreign lands but have not sensed the so-called opportunity. Later, I heard that Damocles' divination department is very powerful, so I came to the academy to study and ask for a divination."

"In the end, once a month, it was not allowed." Xuan Lin said angrily, "This time I specifically asked Professor Agatha for help, and the result was the three words 'human world'."

"Then why are you here?"

"I only know about the human world, but I don't have a specific address. So I'm just wandering around to see if I can sense anything."

Xi Sui'an couldn't help but frowned slightly with some confusion. Why would Ying Longwei be so...indulgent towards him?

"Why haven't you returned to school yet?" Xuan Lin raised his eyebrows, revealing a hint of gloating. "I advise you to go back early, otherwise the members of the Discipline Department will punish you."

"Well, I've asked for leave." Xi Sui'an thought to himself, it shouldn't be a problem if it's a little late, right?

"We are now investigating the earth veins in the human world." Xi Sui'an pondered for a moment. This matter should have nothing to do with him. Xuan Lin himself passed the inspection of Yinglongwei, so even if something happens later, it should be within controllable range.

"Leyline?"

Xuan Lin was quite curious: "Is there something wrong with the ground veins here?"

"We're not sure, so we came to take a look." Xi Sui'an shook his head and said softly.

He touched his chin, a thoughtful look on his slightly round face: "Do you mind if I get involved?" Since he was wandering in the human world anyway, it wouldn't be a bad idea to get involved in such an interesting thing.

Xi Sui'an and Zhong Heng looked at each other. Zhong Heng nodded, then cleared a space on the table and put down a map.

Zhong Heng pointed to a certain place on the map: "If nothing unexpected happens, it might be here." It was the closest to the location in his memory.

The entire terrain of X City is like a basin, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and it is a picturesque place. The place Zhong Heng pointed to was a mountain peak facing east.

Xi Sui'an was silent for a moment. It was indeed too much time that had passed. The Feng Shui treasure land in his memory had now turned into mountains.

"A mountain...it doesn't look anything strange." Xuan Lin glanced at the place Zhong Heng pointed and was slightly puzzled to find that it seemed a little ordinary.

"Let's go there first." Xi Sui'an said in a serious tone, "You can only see something when you are there." There is really too little information on the paper.

Xuan Lin swept his hand across the table and put away a pile of pastry boxes, with a hint of excitement on his face: "Finally it's not so boring anymore. It turns out that you guys in the External Relations Department are good at having fun. Let's go!"

Xi Sui'an said nothing, and followed Zhong Heng slowly behind him.

They avoided the crowds, walked out of the bustling city and went to the secluded mountains.

Zhong Heng looked at the clear blue sky and towering mountains in front of him and couldn't help but sigh silently. To him, the scenery seemed extremely unfamiliar. To humans, it was even more of a world of change.

"This mountain is not very famous. It is called Dragon Ridge Peak by the locals because of its terrain. The terrain is dangerous and sparsely populated." Xi Sui'an said without raising his head.

"?" Xuan Lin turned back in surprise, "How did you know?"

Xi Sui'an shook his phone and said, "I searched it."

"..."

Xuan Lin was silent for a second. He glanced at Xi Sui'an and suggested seriously, "To be honest, you and Yi Luowen should update the college's communicator and promote it outside the college. I think it's a good idea."

Xi Sui'an blinked. What kind of Internet thinking is this?

Xuan Lin turned his head and thought: "If this is the case, maybe I can take down the dragon clan's richest man."

"?" Xi Sui'an was a little surprised. "The richest man in the foreign land is not a mermaid?" She always thought that the mermaids were very rich.

"The mermaids and dragons are equally powerful." Xuan Lin curled his lips coldly and said indifferently, "It's just that during the Age of Strife, the dragons invaded the dwarves' territory. Now two-thirds of the entire Isolde Mountains belong to the dragons. If the dwarves hadn't won over other races in the end, even that one-third of their territory would have been swallowed up by the greedy dragons."

Xi Sui'an rested his head with one hand and brushed away the weeds and branches in front of him with the other hand: "Is that so... It seems that the dwarves hate the dragons to death." Two races with a feud for generations living next to each other, tsk.

"We can't help it. It's all about the Age of Strife. Besides, the dwarves can't compete with the dragons, who are among the top tribes in the foreign lands." Xuan Lin said with a smile, "The Isolde Mountains produce all kinds of rare raw ores needed for alchemy. If it weren't for the dwarves, the dragons would have monopolized at least half of the alchemy materials in the foreign lands."

He laughed with gloating smile: "Professor Iloven from your department curses the dragon clan every now and then, haha."

Xi Sui'an felt as if an arrow had stabbed his heart. According to this statement, if alchemists wanted to obtain top-notch materials in foreign lands, they would have to deal with dragons and dwarves.

Tsk, she is just an unlucky alchemist.

Xi Sui'an sighed and said, "I'll ask Professor Ilowen later." There are too many alien races, some of which may be taboo and completely different from the human world. It is estimated that the alien encyclopedia is unlikely to be circulated. As for the dragon race, the richest man can only dream about it.

Looking at Xi Sui'an who looked calm, Xuan Lin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "If you have a chance, you can go to the Isolde Mountains to have a look. There are really big dramas going on there every year. It's really exciting."

Xi Sui'an glanced at him calmly and said, "If they expand the fight beyond the Isolde Mountains, you won't be able to laugh anymore."

When Xuan Lin heard this hypothesis, his smiling face froze instantly. This hypothesis was really terrible!

"Stop chatting for now." Zhong Heng suddenly interrupted their conversation and pointed at the mountain wall in the distance: "Look over there."

Xuan Lin and Xi Sui'an were both stunned. They looked in the direction Zhong Heng pointed and saw a cave several meters deep in the woods. The entrance of the cave looked extremely deep, like a huge mouth eager to eat.

-

Chao Xi climbed out of the backpack and clung to Xi Sui'an's shoulder, looking at the dark corridor in front of him in confusion: "Original power..."

Xi Sui'an silently twisted his fingertips, feeling the seemingly invisible Chaos Origin flowing into the Origin Core, and his brows slowly frowned: "It's still a rare Chaos Origin."

She has not fully recovered her strength since the battle with Carlisle Nolan. This shows that the origin of the human world is thin. How can there be condensed original power here?

Zhong Heng was also slightly stunned: "Back then, the origin here didn't seem to be as strong as it is now."

Xuan Lin touched his chin as he listened to their words: "Is there no original power of division and division? It seems to be older than I thought, but it has changed in this era. It sounds interesting. Let's go and take a look."

Colorful stone pillars and bizarrely shaped stalactites weave together to create a dreamlike world underground.

Zhong Heng transformed into a "朏朏" and nimbly jumped onto the stone pillar in front. His bright eyes were extremely eye-catching in the dark cave.

"There are traces of human activity." He turned around and pointed ahead seriously, saying, "Look, there is a symbol there."

Xi Sui'an looked away from Xixi's furry tail and ears and coughed softly: "This place is close to human cities, so it's normal for humans to come here."

"What symbol?"

“…I don’t understand.” Zhong Heng was silent.

"..." Xi Sui'an walked forward a short distance, and then the scarlet rune came into view.

The red lines seemed to form a talisman-like shape. When Xi Sui'an approached, the talisman lit up slightly, which seemed to be a warning.

"This seems to be... a restriction?" Xuan Lin looked at the rune and turned to look at Xi Sui'an, "Can you tell what it is?"

Xi Sui'an fell into deep thought and searched through her memory for a long time: "It looks like a formation that contains souls." She had used similar alchemical runes before, but the one in front of her was obviously much more advanced.

Xuan Lin stepped forward tentatively and thought for a moment. The origin power flowed at his fingertips. The light blue origin power impacted the restriction. The scarlet restriction dream fluctuated violently. The red and blue powers intertwined, distorting the original pattern. The origin power deep in the cave became more and more vivid.

Xi Sui'an felt that countless original forces were drilling into his body. The core of the origin was spinning rapidly, constantly swallowing and absorbing the external force.

"There is such a strong power in the human world?" Chao Xi said with great interest, "Without the lost origin, humans do have many means."

Zhong Heng looked down at their actions from the stone pillar and said, "It's a bit strange. There were no such changes when we left the human world."

She thought to herself, this place seems to have been developed, which force could be responsible...

“Beep, beep—”

The sudden ringing of the phone woke Xi Sui'an up. She was stunned for a moment and took out her cell phone.

The caller was Jingci, a customer service guy from Yinglongwei.

Xi Sui'an couldn't help but feel moved. Could it be that this Dragon Ridge Peak was related to Yinglongwei?

As soon as the phone was connected, Jing Ci asked a series of questions before Xi Sui'an could say anything.

"Why haven't you returned to Damocles yet? What are you doing in City X? And did you go to Dragon's Back Peak? Get out now!"

Xi Sui paused and said, "Watching me?" He knew where she was so quickly?

"Do we still need surveillance? With such a huge fluctuation of the origin suddenly appearing, there's no way we can detect something unusual!" Jing Ci said unhappily. Ying Longwei is not there to eat for nothing.

Xuan Lin turned his head suddenly and asked anxiously, "What's inside Dragon Ridge Peak?"

“Huh? Xuanlin, why are you there too?!” Jing Ci’s voice made him feel a little nervous. “No, although you are allowed to move around in the human world, you can’t go anywhere! Longji Peak is the territory of Yinglongwei, you guys hurry out, Qiuqiu, don’t increase my workload!”

Jingci's voice clearly sounded a little sad.

Xuan Lin looked deep inside, his expression excited and thrilled. He covered his madly beating heart and said, "I seem to feel... that kind of... very strange attraction. Is it an opportunity?"

“That’s where I became an adult!”

Xuan Lin ran inside without looking back.

“?!” Xi Sui’an’s pupils trembled.

The turning point for Xuan Lin to become an adult is there? Is it such a coincidence?

Jing Ci paused when he heard the noise, then said anxiously: "Xi Sui'an, stop him, don't let Xuan Lin in yet!"

Xi Sui'an was startled and looked up at Zhong Heng. Zhong Heng also heard Jing Ci's words. He hesitated for a moment, jumped from the stone pillar and chased after Xuan Lin.

Xi Sui'an frowned and asked in a serious tone: "What is going on here?"

"It's a long story. Don't do anything rash. I'll be there soon. Don't touch anything in there! Don't touch anything in there!" Jing Ci felt a little headache. "You Damocles are so good at getting into trouble. You even found such a remote place!"

"Everything will be discussed after I arrive!"

Jing Ci hung up the phone.

Xi Sui'an looked at his phone doubtfully, then dialed another number while walking inside.

"Hey, Sui'an, you haven't returned to the academy yet?"

"Li Chu, I want to ask, do you know Dragon Ridge Peak?" Xi Suian went straight to the point.

Li Chu on the other side was slightly stunned, and then his voice became more serious: "What are you doing there?"

Xi Sui paused and said, "I just investigated a few things and ended up here."

Li Chu seemed to be in hesitation. After a moment, a new voice came from the other end of the phone, and the old voice of Li Yuan came over.

"It's fate, Xi Sui'an, bring him to Wangjing Tower. This will be your first mission in cooperation with Yinglongwei."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Xi Sui'an was slightly stunned. He actually alarmed the envoy Li Yuan?

She frowned. "What's in there?"

Xi Sui'an quickly followed them.

After breaking through the outer soul-enriching restriction, several offensive and defensive restrictions appeared inside, which looked to be of high grade.

Xuan Lin bit his fingertips and pulled off the necklace on his chest. Glowing blood dripped onto the necklace. Powerful force poured into his body as if it was unleashed. Xi Sui'an could feel that Xuan Lin's strength was rapidly rising.

Xuan Lin stepped into the restriction, and his black eyes gradually turned blue, becoming a pair of vertical pupils with obvious racial characteristics.

His voice was steady: "Broken."

Cracks appeared on the ban and it gradually broke apart.

Chao Xi was a little surprised when he saw this: "A secret method to improve your strength?"

Xi Sui'an pursed his lips, stepped forward to stop Xuan Lin and said in a deep voice: "Don't barge in, this is the place of the Yinglong Guards in the human world, you need to be cautious."

Xuan Lin paused, hesitation appeared in his pupils, and after a moment he shook his head: "I'll go in and take a look first, that kind of feeling is very obvious, I can't miss it."

Xuan Lin walked around Xi Sui'an and continued walking inside.

Zhong Heng stood beside Xi Sui'an and hesitated for a moment: "We can't stop him, why don't we follow him first?"

Xi Sui'an tilted his head to think for a moment and sighed.

"We can't let him lose the chance to become an adult... Let's follow him and see for ourselves."
