An Old Acquaintance
Chen Feng looked toward the north side of Mount Tai.
That area had been off-limits to tourists for many years, and with his eyesight, he could naturally see all the terrain in the northern area.
A new military base was built there, surrounded by heavily armed soldiers on guard.
Ordinary people might not be aware of the situation there, but Chen Feng was quite clear about it.
Li Xiaorou had mentioned to him some time ago that the country had established a martial arts training base in the northern part of Mount Tai.
This base only recruits Dragon Country exceptional martial arts talent to be trained as national reserve talents.
These people will undergo systematic training after entering the base.
The base will also provide the best elixirs and Cultivation Method.
Of all the countries on Earth, only the Dragon Country currently has the largest number of martial artists.
This is naturally due to the resources and support Chen Feng has consistently provided.
Chen Feng gave the Dragon Country the best of everything: elixirs, Cultivation Method, and even some technologies.
Without further observing the base, Chen Feng then released his Primordial Spirit from within the mustard seed bead.
In an instant, hundreds of Primordial Spirit appeared before Chen Feng.
These Primordial Spirit were all bound by his power of stars, unable to move an inch.
"Where's Wang Ping? Where am I? Who are you?!"
"Wang Ping, release me at once, or the Blood Demon Palace will never let you off!"
"Fellow Daoist, spare my life! If you release me, I'll give you anything you want!"
"."
A cacophony of insults, threats, and pleas for mercy filled the air; most of these cultivators were captured by Chen Feng from the Xuanhuang Realm.
There are only a few cultivators at the Void Refinement stage.
However, there were as many as two hundred people who Spirit Transformation.
Chen Feng completely ignored what these people were saying and used the power of the stars to press down on these Primordial Spirit!
In an instant, hundreds of Primordial Spirit in the arena exploded, and all the pleas for mercy and curses ceased.
At the same time, a large amount of Primordial Spirit energy spread across the top of Mount Tai.
These Primordial Spirit energies transformed into a golden ocean, completely obscuring the sky above Mount Tai.
Tourists on the top of Mount Tai noticed the unusual situation immediately.
The Primordial Spirit energy blotted out the sky, and all the tourists were bathed in golden light.
With the appearance of golden energy, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in Mount Tai surged dozens of times in an instant!
"What's going on? What are those golden things in the sky?!"
"I don't know! Call the police immediately!"
"I've broken through! I've actually broken through to the Xiantian!"
The noise of the tourists was deafening; everyone was awestruck by the golden energy spreading through the sky.
But soon, the tourists noticed something was wrong.
After they felt themselves enveloped by this golden energy, not only did their breathing become exceptionally smooth, but their spirits also became incredibly high.
Some people whose legs and feet ache from climbing mountains also no longer feel the pain.
"Fortuitous opportunity! This is an fortuitous opportunity that you only hear about in novels!" shouted a martial artist from Mount Tai.
Everyone was taken aback by what they heard, but they quickly realized what was going on.
Everyone present was from the Dragon Country, Dragon Country steeped in myths and legends since ancient times.
With the popularity of movies, TV series, and novels, people also know what fortuitous opportunity represents.
Soon, the tourists quieted down.
They all began to sit cross-legged on the ground and take deep breaths.
Although they didn't know what this golden energy was, they understood that it would bring immense benefits, so naturally, no one wanted to miss this opportunity.
Northern part of Mount Tai.
Inside the martial arts training base.
This area was also covered in golden energy, and all the martial artists training there immediately sat down cross-legged and began Cultivation Practice Method.
These martial artists knew far better than ordinary people how beneficial this change in the natural environment was.
After all, there is Spirit Vein next to the training base, and they often cultivate next to the Spirit Vein.
On the training field, a short-haired youth stared in shock at the golden energy above his head.
The young man's name is Ye Bei, and he is currently the head instructor of this martial arts base.
Ye Bei is also one of the three top martial artists in the Dragon Country. His strength has reached the peak of the Transformation Realm.
A Dragon Country artist at the Transformation Realm is only found in China, besides the Xingfeng Group.
Even in the Eagle Sauce Country, there are currently only Xiantian martial artists.
Ye Bei reached the Transformation Realm at the age of less than thirty, which speaks volumes about his exceptional martial arts talent.
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked over from a distance, accompanied by several men in military uniforms.
Upon seeing the middle-aged man, Ye Bei immediately saluted. "Greetings, sir!"
The middle-aged man nodded, then asked with a serious expression:
Do you know what this golden energy is?
Ye Bei shook his head. "I don't know, but this should be a type of energy that surpasses Spiritual Qi energy, and it would be very beneficial to both martial artists and ordinary people."
Upon hearing Ye Bei's words, a high-ranking military officer standing next to the middle-aged man said:
"Sir, I've already ordered the sealing off of Mount Tai, but given the rate at which this golden energy is spreading, it probably won't be long before it reaches the entire country. Perhaps we could contact the Xingfeng Group and see if they have any explanation."
These men were all high-ranking officials from the capital. They had come to the Taishan base by chance for an inspection and unexpectedly encountered this situation.
The middle-aged man standing in the middle nodded. "I'll contact Mr. Li later."
The middle-aged man had just finished speaking
A figure suddenly descended from the sky and appeared before everyone.
This is a man dressed in white, with a handsome face and deep-set eyes.
The man's mere presence alone instilled a tremendous sense of oppression in everyone present.
This sense of oppression didn't come from the man's aura, but rather from his unique aura.
Upon seeing this, the surrounding soldiers immediately surrounded the man and pointed their guns at him.
Some martial artists who were practicing stopped and watched the man warily.
The man ignored the others and looked at the middle-aged man surrounded by the crowd, smiling as he said:
"Boss, it's been a long time."
The person who arrived was none other than Chen Feng.
After crushing the Spirit Transformation energy, he was about to leave, but he suddenly spotted an acquaintance, so he came over to check on him.
The middle-aged man before me was none other than Liu Mu, who had represented the country in his contacts years ago.
Liu Mu stared blankly at Chen Feng, and called out uncertainly:
"Are you... Little Chen?"
No wonder Liu Mu was somewhat uncertain; the Chen Feng before him was completely different from the Little Chen he remembered.
If it weren't for the slight resemblance, he wouldn't have dared to speak.
Chen Feng smiled and said, "It's me."
"It really is you, Little Chen!" Liu Mu excitedly walked up to Chen Feng and gave Chen Feng a hug.
Ye Bei and the others standing nearby were all completely bewildered.
Liu Mu had always given them the impression of being very composed, so why was he acting so out of control? Just who was this young man?
At this moment, many speculations arose in the minds of everyone present.
"Come on, let's talk in my office. You've been gone for so long, and you haven't even come back to see me. You have to have a drink with me today!"
With that, Liu Mu pulled Chen Feng and walked into the base.
Before leaving, Liu Mu said to Ye Bei and the others:
"Everything as usual, let's lift the lockdown on Mount Tai."
When Chen Feng appeared here, Liu Mu understood what had happened at Mount Tai; it was clearly related to Chen Feng.
Then there's naturally no need for further lockdowns.
After Liu Mu left with Chen Feng, an officer asked the others:
Do you know that person from earlier?
Everyone shook their heads; none of these people had ever seen Chen Feng before.
Back then, Chen Feng was a top-secret figure in China, and only a few people in the upper echelons of the Dragon Country had contact with him.
"The other party can descend from the sky, so they must be at least a martial artist at the Transformation Realm. Could they be from the Xingfeng Group?" someone speculated.
Ye Bei shook his head:
"He is not a martial artist at the Transformation Realm."
Everyone looked at Ye Bei, who said with a solemn expression:
"I didn't sense any martial artist's Qi and Blood fluctuations from him. There are two possibilities: either he's hiding his aura, or his strength far surpasses mine, which is why I can't sense him."
Everyone was shocked. If he was even stronger than Ye Bei, what terrifying strength must he possess?
At that moment, a high-ranking military officer seemed to realize something. "I just heard the commander call him 'Little Chen,' could it be that person?"
"Who?" Everyone else looked at the person who spoke.
The high-ranking military officer seemed to realize something, then shook his head and said:
"I'm sorry, I signed a confidentiality agreement. I can't disclose any information about this person casually. If you want to know, you can apply to your superiors."
Seeing this, no one asked any further questions.
If even their name can't be revealed, then this person's security level must be at the highest level.
People couldn't help but start speculating again.
Meanwhile, inside the base office.
Liu Mu and Chen Feng sat on the sofa, and Chen Feng briefly explained to Liu Mu about the situation on the top of Mount Tai.
Liu Mu's face lit up with joy. "So that means that golden energy will continue to spread throughout the country?"
"Yes, it will take about seven days for this golden energy to cover the entire country, and then continue to spread to the rest of the world. It should reach the whole planet within a month."
"At that time, the Spiritual Qi on Earth will be at least fifty times higher than it is now. Martial artists on Earth will cultivate at a faster pace, and immortal cultivators will also emerge."
Chen Feng tried his best to explain the benefits of increased Spiritual Qi to Liu Mu in simple and easy-to-understand language.
"A cultivator? Little Chen, you must be a powerful cultivator as well." Liu Mu looked at Chen Feng.
In fact, Liu Mu had known for several years that Chen Feng was the person behind Xingfeng Group.
He had already guessed who X, who had always been shrouded in mystery, was.
Although Liu Mu knew this, he didn't point it out; in fact, he even helped Chen Feng conceal many things.
After Chen Feng suddenly disappeared a few years ago, Liu Mu was also responsible for handling the aftermath.
"Yes, I am indeed a cultivator now." Chen Feng didn't hide anything; at his level, there was no need to hide anything.
We used to hide it to avoid trouble, but now there's no need for that anymore.
Liu Mu nodded, and then said:
"Little Chen, if you need any help in the future, please feel free to let me know. The country will do its best to help you."
Chen Feng smiled and said, "Okay, I'll contact you if I need anything. By the way, you can send a group of researchers to the Golden Triangle in a while. I'll have someone prepare some technical data on aerospace carriers and weapons."
Upon hearing this, Liu Mu immediately gave a wry smile:
"Little Chen."
At this moment, Liu Mu didn't know what to say.
He was the one who offered to help Chen Feng, but Chen Feng directly offered to give them technical data about space carriers and weapons.
He knew very well what Xingfeng Group's space carrier and weapons represented.
That's a technology that's ahead of all other countries in the world.
In fact, over the years, Xingfeng Group has already provided them with a lot of technology.
Otherwise, Dragon Country wouldn't have been able to gain the upper hand over other countries in the space race.
However, they didn't give Xingfeng Group and Chen Feng anything, which made Liu Mu feel a little guilty.
Chen Feng said, "We're all on the same side, so let's not say anything sentimental. Aren't we supposed to be drinking? I don't see any alcohol."
Liu Mu laughed heartily:
"Okay, I'll go get the wine!"
After that, Chen Feng and Liu Mu started drinking.
Liu Mu did most of the talking, and Chen Feng listened, and they talked about mostly trivial things.
Liu Mu didn't say anything, like telling Chen Feng to go back to work in the country.
Because he knew very well that, given Chen Feng's current status and position, it was impossible for him to stay in the Dragon Country.
Moreover, Chen Feng has already done enough for the country. To ask Chen Feng to do anything more would seem greedy.
Liu Mu understood this perfectly, so he simply didn't bring it up.
After drinking for half an hour, Chen Feng left.
Before leaving, Chen Feng also helped Liu Mu improve his health.
With Chen Feng's current level of cultivation, simply improving Liu Mu's physique would be enough to extend Liu Mu's lifespan by several decades.
After Chen Feng left, Liu Mu's smile immediately vanished, and he promptly summoned his secretary.
Liu Mu said coldly to his secretary:
"Make a list of everyone who met Little Chen today; all of them must sign the highest level of confidentiality agreement."
Upon hearing this, the secretary immediately became serious:
"Yes, sir, I'll arrange it right away."
"Okay, go and call Ye Bei over for me again," Liu Mu instructed.
The secretary nodded, then quickly left the room.
Liu Mu wanted everyone to keep it a secret because he was afraid that some people would have ulterior motives if they knew about Chen Feng's affairs.
The country doesn't belong to him alone.
There will always be people who, for their own benefit, choose to use moral blackmail to approach Chen Feng Chen Feng, trying to get him to do things unconditionally.
Although the probability of such a thing happening is very low, he still can't afford to be complacent.
Before long, Ye Bei entered the office.
"Sir!" Ye Bei gave a military salute.
Liu Mu said, "Go and select twenty martial artists with good talent. We'll go to the Golden Triangle together in three days."
Ye Bei was taken aback. "To the Golden Triangle?"
Liu Mu nodded. "Yes, you'll be going there to train for a while. Work hard; there are very few people in the world who get this kind of opportunity."
During their conversation just now, Liu Mu mentioned Ye Bei to Chen Feng.
Ye Bei has great talent, and he doesn't want Ye Bei's talent to be wasted, so he wants Ye Bei to go to the Golden Triangle for training.
The martial arts level there is much higher than in the Dragon Country, and there are even experts above the Transformation Realm. If Ye Bei trains there for a period of time, his strength will definitely increase again.
Upon hearing this, Ye Bei became excited and immediately shouted:
"Please rest assured, sir, I will train hard and never let down the country and you!"
Ye Bei was well aware of what training in the Golden Triangle meant.
He also knew that this was an opportunity that Liu Mu had secured for him.
"Alright, you can go now. I have other things to take care of." Liu Mu smiled and waved.
Ye Bei didn't linger and quickly left.
Liu Mu wasn't idle either. After learning about the changes in Earth's environment from Chen Feng, he needed to prepare.
In this Spiritual Qi revival of the Earth, the country that can plan ahead will gain an advantage in the future.
In particular, Liu Mu paid special attention to Chen Feng's mention of cultivators.
