"Oh?" Xiao Chen was slightly surprised. He immediately closed the door and invited Xia Zhili in. He asked him to sit down and was about to pour tea for him.
"Don't bother. You can sit down first!" Xia Zhili pointed to the seat beside him, indicating that Xiao Chen should not sit down.
"Alright." Xiao Chen looked at Xia Zhili's expression and knew that he had something important to say. He quickly sat down and asked, "Deputy Bureau Chief Xia, you were looking for me …"
"It's like this. Recently, there has been a mission. However, it is not a mission from the Supernatural Investigation Bureau. It is a mission from the Warrior Guild Headquarters," Xia Zhili said.
"Oh? Can I participate in this mission? "Xiao Chen was slightly surprised after listening and could not help but ask.
"Of course you can. The Supernatural Investigation Bureau can also accept the missions from the Warrior Guild Headquarters. However, the points obtained are counted as points for the Supernatural Investigation Bureau's public account and cannot be owned by individuals. Therefore, there are contributions to the Bureau. However, usually, not many people are willing to accept the mission because there are no benefits!" Xia Zhili said. "Everyone has to accept the missions that we issue. However, the Warrior Guild's missions can be done at will. In this way, no one is willing to take the initiative to do it. In fact, if the mission is successful, the contribution to the Bureau is greater than other missions. After all, points are also an important way for us to exchange for cultivation resources!"
"So that's how it is." Xiao Chen came to a realization and said, "In that case, this mission must be related to the Hakunamata Desert?"
"Yes!" Xia Zhili nodded. "Your mission this time is to go to the Hakunamata Desert and explore the ruins of the Bubble Li Clan's Cultivation City!"
"Bubble Li Clan? Cultivation City Ruins? "Xiao Chen nodded after listening and noted it down." Then, what is this mission for? "
"It's like this. The ruins of the Bubble Li Clan's Cultivation City. Legend has it that they have a lot of Spiritual Stones there! As for spirit stones, you also know that they are a type of energy that can be used to power a formation. Although they are not as useful as spirit jades, a large number of spirit stones can be as effective as spirit jades! " Xia Zhili said: "I don't know if you have heard, but Wulin has been collecting a lot of spiritual jades recently. It seems that they want to open some kind of formation, but they don't have enough spiritual jades in their hands, so they have turned their attention to spiritual stones, and spiritual stones are not so easy to find. The ruins of the cultivation city of Pao Li Clan have been annihilated for many years. Their clan has migrated to an unknown place, so it is very difficult to find them. Everyone's contribution is related to the number of spiritual stones found."
"Aren't the Spirit Stones placed together?" Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"That was true in the past, but it has been so many years. The earth's crust has shifted, and there are frequent hurricanes in the desert. The spiritual stones have long been scattered to who knows where, so we need everyone to search for them! Otherwise, there wouldn't be this mission. "Xia Zhili explained.
"So that's how it is." Xiao Chen understood, but no matter what the mission was, he had to go to the Hakunamata Desert, so he accepted it: "Okay, I will accept it. When will we leave?"
"Naturally, the sooner the better. I heard that the ruins exploration is about to start, don't be late!" Xia Zhili said.
"Okay, then I will leave immediately." Xiao Chen made a decision. He also wanted to leave as soon as possible and go to the desert, and he was also concerned about the news of his father.
"Well, but … there is one more thing." Xia Zhili hesitated for a moment and looked at Xiao Chen.
"Oh? Deputy Director Xia, if there is anything else, please let me know. If I can do it, I will definitely help! " When Xiao Chen saw Xia Zhili's expression, he knew that he had something to ask of him. It was probably similar to the last time. It was a private matter, and it should be a very important private matter. Otherwise, he wouldn't have such an expression.
"It's like this … You also know that I have been stuck at the tenth level of the Martial Master Realm for many years. I want to advance further, but I don't have suitable cultivation resources, so my progress has been slow." Xia Zhili sighed and said: "You can be considered one of my people, so I won't hide anything from you. Although I am disabled, I wholeheartedly pursue martial arts. I want to advance to the next level. Now that I have stepped into the peak of the tenth level of the Martial Master Realm, I am only one step away from the Martial General Realm. I want to break through, but the current resources of the Supernatural Investigation Bureau are not enough for me to do so …"
Xiao Chen was shocked. He didn't expect that above the Martial Master Realm was the Martial General Realm, and Xia Zhili had already begun to break through. This was not easy, but what was the use of saying this to him?
"It's like this, Jiannan, didn't you see the ruins of the Pao Li Clan? I actually heard of a legend before … "Xia Zhili hesitated for a moment, but still said:" You have heard about this matter. Whether you have it or not, whether you have it or not, it is best not to spread it, understand? "
"I understand, Deputy Bureau Chief Xia, please speak!" Xiao Chen said solemnly.
"En, it's like this. I heard that the Pao Li Clan is not human, but another race. They might be a spirit beast clan, or they might be extraterrestrial visitors!" Xia Zhili said: "In short, there is no way to verify it. It has been thousands of years, and they have long moved away. However, I know of a legend. When the Pao Li Clan settled in the Hakunamata Desert, they brought with them something called the 'Extraterrestrial Ink Meteorite'. This thing can help me break through the Martial Master Realm and become a Martial General. Of course, this is only a legend. Whether it can be found or not is another matter. When you go, if possible, help me look for it!"
"Oh?" Xiao Chen was a little surprised: "There is such a thing? However, what does it look like? Deputy Bureau Chief Xia, you told me the name, but I don't know what it is! "
"Naturally, I heard that not only can it help martial cultivators break through the Martial General Realm, but it can also help them become the strongest Martial General, so it is quite precious. As for what it looks like, I am not too sure. I heard that it is a black meteorite." Xia Zhili said.
"Okay, I will pay attention. If there is, I will help you bring it back." Xiao Chen nodded and agreed.
"En, so you accepted this mission? Then I will sign you up in a while! " Xia Zhili said: "However, you should also think about it. All the points you get in the mission have nothing to do with you personally. The Supernatural Investigation Bureau can only help you count it as a credit, but they will not give you any points!"
"I know, it doesn't matter." Xiao Chen said.
"En, also, because this kind of mission is quite special, the Supernatural Investigation Bureau will not provide you with travel expenses and material support. You will have to rely on yourself." Xia Zhili said: "But I can personally pay for your travel expenses."
"Then there is no need." Xiao Chen smiled. Xia Zhili would probably only give him a few thousand yuan for the plane ticket, which Xiao Chen had himself.
"En, then I will wait for your good news." After saying that, Xia Zhili stood up and left to help Xiao Chen sign up.
What is the Extraterrestrial Ink Meteorite? What Xiao Chen was interested in was this. Could it be that his father had also gone to look for this thing in the past? Xiao Chen knew that as long as it was something helpful to cultivation, Xiao Feng would search for it at all costs. Needless to say, this was very possible!
Not long after, Xia Zhili returned. The moment he opened the door, he happily said to Xiao Chen: "Okay, Jiannan, it's done. You can head directly to the border town of Hakunamata Desert, Yu Town. There is a Warrior Guild branch there. Go there and register, then you can head to the desert for an adventure."
"Okay." Xiao Chen noted it down: "Then I will go and book the plane ticket now."
"No need, I have already booked it for you. Originally, you have to pay for the travel expenses yourself, but I have settled it for you." Xia Zhili smiled: "You can just go to the airport."
Xiao Chen nodded and told Song Huawu and Xia Xibin about it. Song Huawu replied: "Be careful, I support you." As for Xia Xibin, he wanted to go with Xiao Chen. However, Xiao Chen rejected him. This trip might be quite difficult, and Xiao Chen had his own plans. Xia Xibin wanted to go with Xiao Chen.
For a good thing like the Extraterrestrial Ink Meteorite, if he found it, he could naturally go first. As for Xia Zhili, if there was an extra one, Xiao Chen would find one for him. If there wasn't, then he could only apologize.
But if Xia Zhili went, it was hard to say. For this kind of thing, the fewer people who knew, the better. Although he had expressed his position, in the face of great benefits, it was hard to say whether he could stick to his original heart.
After packing up, Xiao Chen went to the airport. He didn't want to stay in Tianfang Province anymore. The Wang Family might come to find him at any time. He had to hurry and take refuge.
After a few flights and a few long-distance buses, Xiao Chen arrived at the border town of Yu Jia Town in the Hakunamata Desert. However, this was no longer the territory of the Great Xia Kingdom. This should be the territory of the martial arts circle.
Many people here retained the custom of ancient clothes, but there were some modern people. Xiao Chen followed the road map that Xia Zhili gave him and didn't stop. He went all the way to Yu Jia Town's Warrior Guild.
"Hello, I am here to sign up for a mission." Xiao Chen found a staff member and said to him. There were very few people here. There were no people coming and going like the other city's Warrior Guild. There were only a few people.
There were a few unknown martial artists and two or three staff members. It was a desolate scene.
"Mission? How can there be a mission here? Where are you from? "The staff member looked at Xiao Chen impatiently.
"I am here to participate in the Spirit Stone Exploration Mission of the Bubble Li Clan Cultivation City Ruins in Hakunamata Desert." Xiao Chen was stunned and asked curiously.
