The next day.
Eight Ancient Continents, Heavenly Strange Sect.
Heavenly Strange Sect was located in the center of the west of Eight Ancient Continents. This was the famous Boson Plateau. The lowest altitude of Boson Plateau was three thousand zhang. Ordinary people couldn't live here, so there were no ordinary people or strange beasts. To live here, one must have a certain level of strength.
Boson Plateau was very big. It was at least the size of four middle-sized countries put together. With such a big area and a low altitude, it was the best location for Heavenly Strange Sect.
Heavenly Strange Sect needed to raise and tame strange beasts. The strong strange beasts were usually huge. A normal sect headquarters couldn't accommodate them, let alone train them. But there was no problem in Boson Plateau. They could train the strange beasts as they wished without disturbing anyone.
In fact, a long time ago, before Heavenly Strange Sect appeared, even before the Eight Ancient Eras, Boson Plateau used to be a famous habitat for birds and strange beasts. But after the Eight Ancient Eras, there were fewer birds and strange beasts here. And after Heavenly Strange Sect set up camp here, the birds and strange beasts basically went extinct.
If they didn't run, they would be caught by Heavenly Strange Sect.
Boson Plateau was so big, but Heavenly Strange Sect couldn't use it as much. It was basically the size of a small country. To Heavenly Strange Sect, Boson Plateau had another great advantage. Because it was high enough, they could dig out a huge underground space.
The lowest point of Boson Plateau was three thousand zhang, and the highest point was seven or eight thousand zhang. The underground space could be used to imprison untamed strange beasts or to raise strange beasts. Heavenly Strange Sect even dug out a huge lake on Boson Plateau to train water type strange beasts.
With such a big Boson Plateau and the underground space that couldn't be explored, it was a mystery how many strange beasts Heavenly Strange Sect had. Even the sect didn't have a definite answer. Some people said that Heavenly Strange Sect had more than three hundred strange beasts, and more than forty rank eight strange beasts. Others said that there were more than five hundred strange beasts, and more than one hundred rank eight strange beasts. But no matter what it was, they were just guesses. Heavenly Strange Sect had never announced the number of strange beasts they had.
Since it was impossible to estimate the number of mystical beasts, the ranking of the Heavenly Strange Sect's strength had been fluctuating. But no matter what, the Heavenly Strange Sect's strength was at least above average.
The headquarters of the Sky Strange Gate was built in the center of the Boson Plateau. Just like the Boson Plateau, the area of the headquarters was very spacious, much larger than the headquarters of other sects. However, it was only big. It looked a little spacious as far as the eye could see, but because it was really too big, its aura was also very strong.
In the morning, a teleportation array opened outside the headquarters, and a group of people walked out from it.
They were led by Lu An and Liu Yi.
There were twenty people in total, but at least half of them had been replaced. Among them were many Level Seven Heavenly Masters, such as Princess Yan Yi, Xu Yunyan, Bian Qingliu, and so on. They were all people in the think tank.
As soon as everyone walked out of the teleportation array, they felt a gust of wind. The strength of this gale was very strong. If it was an ordinary person, they would be blown away by this strong gale. They wouldn't even be able to stand steadily. Of course, it didn't affect them much. The surrounding air was obviously cold. Even though it was midsummer, it felt like autumn and winter.
The entrance of the headquarters was not far ahead. At this moment, there were already many people waiting respectfully. When they saw the people from the Ice Fire Alliance arrive, they immediately went forward to greet them. The person leading them was the core elder of the Sky Strange Gate, Liu Zhong.
"Alliance Master Lu! Madam Lu! "Liu Zhong cupped his hands and said very warmly," Long time no see! "
When they were fighting for the Regeneration Crystal Cores, Liu Zhong and his people attacked crazily. Lu An saw it clearly. They really killed all the sects indiscriminately. If someone saw Liu Zhong for the first time, they would think that he was a man who was easy to talk to. However, Lu An knew how cruel this person was.
Since he was a guest, Lu An naturally wouldn't show any dissatisfaction. He smiled and cupped his hands. "Elder Liu, long time no see."
"The Sky Strange Gate has always wanted to invite Alliance Master Lu to a banquet, but you've been too busy! Today, we're finally able to invite Alliance Master Lu to a gathering. It's really an honor! "Liu Zhong said warmly," Everyone, please follow me. Our Sect Master has been waiting for a long time! "
"Please," Lu An said politely.
Immediately, the people from both sides walked side by side into the huge sect's interior. It took a long time to walk from the entrance of the headquarters to the center. If they didn't fly, it would really take a lot of time.
However, Liu Zhong obviously had no intention of flying. He talked and laughed with Lu An as they walked forward step by step. Naturally, Lu An couldn't take the initiative to ask to fly forward. The group could only move forward slowly.
Liu Yi looked at this scene and sneered in her heart.
It seemed that … the Sky Strange Gate wanted to take advantage of this journey to find out something.
There were more than twenty people behind Liu Zhong and twenty behind Lu An and Liu Yi. The forty people in total started chatting very quickly. In fact, this was very against the rules. Logically speaking, when the leader in front spoke, the people behind could only follow quietly. However, Liu Zhong's accompanying elder spoke and took the initiative to talk to the twenty people from the Ice Fire Alliance. The people from the Ice Fire Alliance couldn't just ignore him.
The people from the think tank were very smart and immediately realized the other party's purpose. They could beat him at his own game and retreat in order to advance. Perhaps they could lead the Sky Strange Gate's elder to say something they wanted to hear. However, they couldn't make it too obvious. Along the way, they focused on getting to know the elders and didn't take the initiative to ask questions.
Liu Yi heard all the conversation behind. Liu Zhong kept talking to Lu An, which gave her a lot of time to analyze and think.
Finally, after walking for a long time, they finally arrived at the huge square in the center of the headquarters. The palace was located in the center of the square. It was a square palace with three doors. The two side doors were relatively smaller. Liu Zhong and Lu An were walking on the main road in front of the main door.
When they were about to reach the main hall, they saw a group of people walking out of the main hall. They stood on a platform and looked down at the people walking on the main road.
The three people on the platform were the three sect leaders of the Sky Strange Gate. The real sect leader was called Moqiliang. He had an extremely rare surname. He was tall but thin. From afar, he looked like a tall bamboo pole. The other two vice sect leaders were called Fang Shang and Jiang Hua. Their strength couldn't be underestimated.
The group walked up the stairs and stood on the platform. Immediately, the three sect leaders and the elders behind them came forward to welcome them. Moqiliang said with a smile, "I've long heard of Alliance Master Lu's name. Now that I've met you, you're indeed a young talent!"
Hearing the other party's praise, Lu An smiled politely and cupped his hands. "You flatter me. Compared to Sect Leader Moqiliang's reputation, I'm still far from it."
"Ever since the battle at the wetlands, who hasn't heard of Alliance Master Lu's name? Don't be too humble! "Moqiliang said with a smile." Don't talk about it outside. Alliance Master Lu, please come in! "
Immediately, everyone walked into the main hall. However, the Sky Strange Gate didn't treat the Ice Fire Alliance as well as the Yin Yang Divine Sect and the Misty Rain Sect. They didn't invite Lu An and Liu Yi to sit on the platform. Of course, Lu An and Liu Yi didn't care about that. After all, they didn't really come here to befriend the Sky Strange Gate.
Both sides had their own ulterior motives. However, the Ice Fire Alliance still had the upper hand because the people of the Sky Strange Gate didn't necessarily know that the Ice Fire Alliance was here to inquire about the Black Bear Tribe.
Because it took a long time to walk to the main hall, Moqiliang thought that it was close to noon. He ordered people to start the banquet. Immediately, many delicacies were placed on everyone's table.
The banquet officially began. After a while, the greetings were finally over and they began to talk about some seemingly irrelevant topics.
"Ever since I heard of the Sky Strange Gate, I've been very respectful." Lu An looked at Moqiliang on the platform and said with a smile, "All the sects say that the Sky Strange Gate is the Sect of Strange Beasts and has many kinds of Strange Beasts. I've seen very few Strange Beasts and know very little about them. May I ask Senior Moqiliang to explain?"
