"Okay, lead the way."
Wu Ao was stunned for half a second.
"Leave now?"
"What if?"
Li Zhengyang raised his wrist.
"I've collected the 5 billion deposit and are you still here waiting for you to take care of the food?"
"Whatever!"
Wu Ao hurry up and follow.
"The association has prepared a reception banquet."
"Then we can't delay."
Li Zhengyang Click on the communication Terminal and dial the duty room Northern Frontier Branch.
As soon as the communication rang twice, the loud voice of Zhang Tie came out.
"Minister! Is the awarding of honors over? The brothers are planning to serve you a celebratory drink. When will you come back?"
"The celebration drinks will be postponed."
Li Zhengyang walked towards the west side of the square.
"I have some personal matters and I have to be away for a few days. The branch is operating as usual, and patrols cannot be stopped. If there is something serious, please contact Lei Sheng first. If that doesn't work, then contact me."
"Should we send a squadron over?"
"No need."
There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds.
"Minister, have you taken on private work again?"
"What are you talking about? This is cross-departmental technical support."
"Is there a difference?"
"Stop talking nonsense and stay safe Northern Frontier."
Li Zhengyang hangs up directly.
Wu Ao's face tensed up a few times.
On the west side of the square, a silver-black floating spaceship has been waiting for a long time.
There were more than a dozen association members standing on both sides of the hatch. As soon as Li Zhengyang approached, everyone lowered their heads at the same time.
"Welcome Ultimate Martial Saint!"
Li Zhengyang didn't stop and went straight up the gangway.
The interior of the spacecraft is fully functional, the ground is paved with Spirit-Gathering Stone Slab, and several Mental Stabilization Arrays are embedded in the bulkhead.
Li Zhengyang found a sofa and sat down.
"Tell me about that door."
Wu Ao sat down opposite and started to explain.
"Ten years ago, the president led a team to explore an ancient ruins. The main body of the ruins has collapsed and the interior has been evacuated, leaving only the deepest stone door."
"The instrument cannot detect the internal structure, and there is no response when Blood Qi is injected."
"The association initially thought that the material of the stone gate was special, so it invited two Martial Saint to take action, one specializing in boxing and the other good at swordsmanship. The two attacked one after another without leaving any trace."
"Later, the president accidentally released Psychic Power, and the totem on the door lit up for a few breaths, but did not open."
"The Association then determined that it would only respond to spiritual power."
Li Zhengyang grabbed a piece of fruit and took a bite.
"Has anyone died on the door in the past ten years?"
"No."
Wu Ao paused for a moment.
"But I've been hurt a lot."
"After the mental power comes into contact with the stone gate, there will be no reaction below Fifth-Rank Martial Artist. Above Fifth-Rank Martial Artist, some totems can be lit up. The more precise the control, the more lights up."
"There was once a senior who lit up one-third of the totems. He only lasted less than five seconds. Sea of Consciousness was severely injured and had to rest for two years before recovering."
Li Zhengyang continued to eat fruit and did not answer the call.
Wu Ao can only identify the most critical risks.
"Minister Li, that door will swallow telepathy. The more input, the more severe the backlash will be. Once telepathy is out of control, Sea of Consciousness is likely to be permanently damaged."
"You know there will be backlash, but you still spend money to treat me?"
"What the president values is your ability to control."
Wu Ao When I said this, my ears felt hot.
Back at Soul Demon Abyss, he even laughed at Li Zhengyang in person, saying that there was no future in developing spiritual power the day after tomorrow.
Now the association has made a special trip to invite Li Zhengyang.
As he spoke, his voice became quieter.
Li Zhengyang leans into the sofa.
"Set the rules first."
"When I get to the place, no matter if the door is open or not, I won't give back five billion."
"Okay."
"If the door is open, there will be another charge."
"The president has prepared the reward."
Wu Ao immediately added.
"Definitely not less than the deposit."
Li Zhengyang lay back.
"Call me somewhere."
The suspended spacecraft accelerated into the sky and quickly passed through the clouds.
Two hours later, a warning sound sounded in the cabin.
"Raven Headquarters has arrived."
Li Zhengyang stood up and came to the observation window.
A giant island hovers high in the sky.
There are hundreds of anti-gravity bases installed at the bottom of the island, and twelve black towers on the periphery are continuously operating.
The cruise ship goes back and forth around the island, and there is a ring-shaped building in the center of the island.
After the spacecraft entered controlled airspace, nearby escort ships immediately gave way to the main channel.
Wu Ao stood next to the hatch.
"Minister Li, please."
The hatch opens.
Blackstone Avenue extends from the apron to the main building of the association.
On both sides of the avenue, hundreds of the Raven Association members were waiting in line.
The minimum for these people is Fourth-Rank Psychic Master.
There are more than a dozen old men at the front of the queue. They rarely appear in the outside world on weekdays, but they have names in the Psychic Master circle.
Li Zhengyang As soon as he stepped off the gangway, everyone on both sides leaned forward at the same time.
"Welcome Ultimate Martial Saint!"
The sound drowned out the sound of engines on the tarmac.
Li Zhengyang stopped for half a step.
This scene is not much worse than the Army-Breaker Bureau Medal Ceremony.
Psychic Master has always been proud.
Even if Martial Saint lands on the island, there is usually only one Deacon who comes to receive him.
Today, almost all the top leaders of the association were present, and even several elders who had been in retreat for many years were standing at the front of the queue.
At the end of the avenue, a gray-haired man walked over.
He wore a pure black robe and no badge on his chest.
Several nearby elders took the initiative to retreat to both sides, giving up the space in the middle.
Wu Ao Lower your voice.
"This is our president, Shen Yuan."
Shen Yuan came closer and raised his hands to clasp his fists.
"Ultimate Martial Saint came to visit in person, Raven Association is honored."
"Forget the polite words."
Li Zhengyang reached out and shook his hand.
"The deposit of 5 billion has been received. The remaining remuneration will be discussed after the show is completed."
"It should."
Shen Yuan Turn sideways and give way.
"Please come with me."
A group of people entered the main building.
There are permission gates every 100 meters along the way.
Shen Yuan personally verified his identity, passed through six layers of blockades, and finally came to a rotunda.
The hall was empty, with only a stone door standing in the center.
The stone gate is entirely gray in color, with sunken totems covering its surface. There is no energy fluctuation, and no abnormalities can be seen from the material.
Li Zhengyang walked around the stone gate.
"That's it?"
"That's it."
Shen Yuan walked to the stone gate and pressed one of the totems with his right hand.
Seventh-Rank Martial Artist The power of thought poured into the stone door from the palm of his hand.
The totems on the door light up one after another.
Ten ways.
Fifty.
One hundred ways.
When the light reached the 127th channel, Shen Yuan's arm trembled.
Several newly lit totems quickly dimmed, and the remaining totems also began to flash.
He immediately withdrew his hand and took two steps back.
All the lights on the door went out.
Shen Yuan Closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, and the headache eased a little.
The chief Old Ma next to him handed over a mental stabilizing potion.
He waved his hand and refused.
"It took me ten years, but I could only light up one hundred and twenty-seven channels at the same time."
"There are three hundred and sixty totems in the entire door."
"We speculate that the stone gate will not open until all three hundred and sixty totems are activated."
Shen Yuan Get out of the way.
"Li Zhengyang, Sea of Consciousness As long as there is tingling pain, withdraw your telekinesis immediately."
"Shimen's backlash cannot be counteracted, so don't hold on."
Li Zhengyang has no answer.
He walked to the stone door, raised his hand and knocked twice.
Boom.
The sound is dull.
When the knock fell, a wisp of telepathy had already swept across the surface of the stone door, and the positions of all three hundred and sixty totems were transmitted back to Sea of Consciousness.
Not a single totem lit up.
An elder nearby couldn't help but remind him.
"Li Martial Saint, knocking has no effect."
"Ten years ago, the two Martial Saint have verified it. The stronger Blood Qi is, the defense of Shimen will also improve simultaneously."
"Please also use Psychic Power."
Li Zhengyang Take half a step back.
Shen Yuan and everyone present stopped talking, waiting for him to release his telekinesis.
Li Zhengyang raised his right hand and held Abyssfall Dragon Spear behind his back.
Lightning exploded from the tip of the gun.
"I'll try a shot first."
