There is a pagoda of light on the summit of the Strange Peak, and the people around it can often see it shrouded in a mysterious halo when the weather is clear, but no one has been able to solve the mystery of this halo for countless years, and it can only be attributed to miracles. As soon as Qi Xiaoyang arrived at the bottom of the tower, he felt that the whole person was immersed in the cool sweet spring, which was indescribably refreshing. He first asked Qiao Ya and Tao Hua to try to see if they could absorb the aura here, but the two of them still couldn't even sense the aura, let alone absorb it.

I don't know how long the confrontation between the fleet and the devils of the island country can last, Qi Xiaoyang didn't dare to delay any longer, let Qiao Ya and Tao Hua stay next to him as protectors, and sat quietly in the open space in front of the tower, and began to absorb it with all his might, and the rest box was also placed on the stone slab in front of him, allowing it to absorb naturally. Qi Xiaoyang could feel the surrounding spirit yuan pouring into the breath box like a long whale absorbing water, and the speed was several times faster than his own absorption.

Fortunately, this aura is thick enough, and the breath box does not affect Qi Xiaoyang, and under the simultaneous absorption, the aura erupts from the mountain, and it is endless, and there is no problem in increasing the absorption amount several times in time. Qi Xiaoyang could clearly feel that the aura poured into the second spiritual sea after the first spiritual sea condensed into a spiritual element, accumulating at a speed of a hundred times faster than usual cultivation, according to this process, he estimated that it should be able to accumulate in five to seven days.

Not to mention that Qi Xiaoyang was hurrying to absorb the aura on the top of the mountain, but it was said that Song Shiyue's negotiations with the government of the island country were terrifying every step on the first day! The navy of the island country sent the most powerful aircraft carrier fleet, which was 100 nautical miles away from the landing island, and the fighter group was constantly patrolling the sky visible to the naked eye.

According to the plan discussed with Qi Xiaoyang, Song Shiyue thought of it as a snake with the island * Fang on the phone, and repeatedly stated that as long as the missing child was found, the prisoners would be released immediately and the island would be withdrawn. As soon as the island country came to throw a rat trap, it was frightened by the Neil carrying a nuclear bomb parked near Dongjin Port, and did not dare to do it for a while, but repeatedly urged Song Shiyue to make a specific time commitment to withdraw troops.

At noon the next day, the island nation issued an ultimatum, demanding that Qijiang complete the search and withdraw from the outlying islands within 24 hours, otherwise a military strike would be taken. Song Shiyue is as big as a fight, not forced to the end of the mountains and rivers, the nuclear bomb of the Neil does not dare to use, then the result is the same end, the island country is also aware of this, only dare to call for the use of force to solve the problem; if the devil is really no more than the life and death of these more than 300 people, brazenly launched an attack, although the Qijiang fleet has a strong defense system, but after all, the disparity in strength is too great, and it can run if it really fights, but Qi Xiaoyang's hard work for so long will all be in vain!

Song Shiyue hadn't thought of a feasible way yet, and there was a major development on Qi Xiaoyang's side the next evening-the rest box was full of spiritual energy and stopped absorbing it! Qi Xiaoyang stopped his meditation and shouted Tao Hua in front of him: "Xiaohua, sit down here, stick this thing to your temples, and guide the spiritual power inside to rush to the end of the spiritual sea!"

Tao Hua did as he said excitedly, and unsurprisingly, it only took a few minutes for him to feel a sharp pain coming from the location of the second spirit gate. "Master, it hurts!" Tao Hua couldn't help but cry out.

"Do you want to travel to space in the future and go to the moon to see Chang'e? If you want to, hold on to me, if you can't pass this level, I'll throw you into the sea and feed Wang Ba!" Qi Xiaoyang was afraid that he would give up halfway, so he hurriedly encouraged and threatened.

"I insist, I insist—" Tao Hua gritted his teeth and continued to impact, beads of sweat the size of beans on his little face kept dripping, even his jaw was trembling, and Qiao Ya on the side felt a chill.

Another few minutes passed, and Tao Hua suddenly felt a buzz in his head - the second spirit gate suddenly broke through, but he fainted under the powerful impact, and the rest box fell to the side! Qi Xiaoyang hurriedly helped him up, put his palm on his temple and injected the spirit yuan, and suddenly showed joy: "It's done! Qiao Ya, come and sit down, it's your turn." ”

Qiao Ya hurriedly took the rest box, and began to attack the spiritual gate according to the method taught by Qi Xiaoyang. She is a long-trained special combat team, and her endurance is naturally much stronger than Xiao Taohua, although her face is also sweating like rain, she persevered without saying a word, until the spiritual gate burst through, and she did not faint like Taohua.

"Feel it, can you sense the aura here?" Qi Xiaoyang had already arranged the awakened Tao Hua to meditate on the side at this time, and Qiao Ya should not have any accidents and could absorb the aura. Sure enough, Qiao Ya felt it a little and said happily: "Yes, this is much stronger than your own cultivation!"

"That's good, let's absorb it quickly, I don't know how much time the devil can give us!" Qi Xiaoyang himself also returned to his original position and sat down, and put the breath box in front of him that the halo had completely dimmed and continued to store the spiritual energy, it seems that this thing can be stored once it can allow two people to open the spiritual door! He excitedly called Song Shiyue with a walkie-talkie, and asked him to inform Jiang Shilun to rush to Hawk Harbor as quickly as possible, and ask Commander Luohan to help send a plane to bring Xia Tiantian here. After arranging all this, Qi Xiaoyang continued to meditate, and the time he needed would be a few days.

When the time set by the devil came, Song Shiyue played both soft and hard cards at the same time, and the hard thing was to show the island country on the video the ironclad evidence that had been "found" on the island today, such as the pottery of mobile phones and cameras, and forcefully stated that he must see people in life and corpses in death, and he would be accompanied by Lao Tzu! A soft move was to release dozens of staff members of the research institute on the island, and use them to implicitly express their sincerity in not wanting the war to escalate.

The island side did not dare to force each other too harshly, and no longer mentioned the 24-hour time limit, and when the release personnel were handed over, they proposed that the two sides hold face-to-face negotiations, which was exactly what Song Shi could not ask for, so it was agreed that the two sides would send negotiators to meet on Snake Island the next morning.

Song Shiyue was not worried that others would come forward, and after discussing with Qi Xiaoyang on the island, he decided on further delaying tactics and personally took people to Snake Island. Commander Luohan on Hawke's side was quite righteous, and took the risk of sending a transport plane to cover up the signs and sent Jiang Shilun and Tian Tian to Luli Island.

Jiang Shilun only understood at this time why Qi Xiaoyang spent so much experience and money to build the Qijiang fleet, and at this time, he first let him enjoy the hard-won results, thinking of his own complaints at the beginning, he couldn't help but feel ashamed: "I'm sorry, Xiaoyang, I didn't know you had such a big plan, I misunderstood you!"

Qi Xiaoyang smiled disappreciatively: "What nonsense, I didn't tell you clearly at the beginning, there is trust between brothers, hurry up and sit down, I'll help you." ”

Jiang Shilun and Tian Tian are both ordinary people who do not have the conditions for refining spirits, and the difficulty of opening the spirit gate is twice as great as that of Qiao Ya and them, and the breath box completely loses its halo after Jiang Shilun uses it, and it needs to accumulate spiritual power again, and Tian Tian has to wait for two more days. At this time, Qi Xiaoyang felt that the speed of absorbing spiritual power in the box began to slow down, probably because the spiritual power was not as abundant as it was at the beginning in a few days, and there were three more people added to the ranks of absorption, and at this time, the spiritual strength of Qi Xiaoyang's second spiritual sea was close to half.

Qi Xiaoyang called the four of them together, and solemnly admonished: "The resources here are limited, I estimate that they can support the use of things two or three times at most, you must keep your mouth shut about this matter, otherwise it may cause some big trouble, understand?"

"Understood!" The four of them all nodded in response, knowing that this matter spread out Qi Xiaoyang didn't know how many people he would offend, and the people around him such as Song Shiyue would be worried because they couldn't refine their spirits, and there might be more dissatisfied people on the far side of the Huaxia government!

The negotiations on the Song Shiyue side were very difficult, and after several rounds of saliva, after some concessions were made by both sides, an agreement was finally reached, Qijiang must complete the search within five days, whether no one is found, all of them must be withdrawn from the island, not a single grass or tree on the island can be taken away, and all the captured personnel will be released, and the island country will apologize for the behavior of detaining Taohua and causing him to disappear, and promise to pay 300 million yuan in compensation.

According to Qi Xiaoyang's estimation at that time, Song Shiyue should be able to complete what he was going to do on the island in five days, and returned to Zhendong after signing the agreement.

When Qi Xiaoyang got the result of this negotiation, he couldn't help frowning, the speed of the rest box and his own absorption of spiritual power was slowing down, according to this progress, he would definitely not be able to reach the second spiritual sea consummation within five days, but now that the agreement is signed, if it is not withdrawn by the time, it will really be a big fight!

This time, it took three and a half days for the rest box to be fully filled with spiritual power, and after opening Tian Tian's spiritual gate, the absorption speed became slower and slower, although Qi Xiaoyang's spiritual strength had exceeded two-thirds, but because the progress had slowed down significantly, it seemed that it would not work in more than ten days.

On the fourth day, Qi Xiaoyang made a very risky decision, he asked Qiao Ya to stop absorbing spiritual power, and took dozens of soldiers to the deepest tunnel under the mountain, and urgently dug a hidden branch hole, which contained advanced tunneling machinery left by the devils of the island country, and it didn't take much effort to dig it. He was unwilling to let more than a thousand people risk being involved in an unpredictable battle, and wanted to stay here alone to complete the final aura absorption, of course, he didn't say anything for the time being, but just told Qiao Ya to dig this hole for other purposes, and asked her to pick all the people brought from the special group, and she must repeatedly emphasize the secrecy to them.

On the afternoon of the fifth day, Qi Xiaoyang ordered Song Shiyue to take all the personnel on board and withdraw, and the captured islanders would be handed over on the high seas, and his plan was not specified by anyone, but he vaguely told Tian Tian that he would return to Hawke Port in about ten days.

After seeing everyone get on the boat and leave, Qi Xiaoyang returned to the Tanah Lot Temple at the foot of Guangwei Peak, found a big bag of grain, filled with biscuits, dried fish and other food, and then found two miniature flashlights and drilled into the tunnel leading to the belly of the mountain. According to the marking map left by Qiao Ya for him, Qi Xiaoyang found the newly dug branch hole, and the entrance of the hole had been blocked according to his instructions, leaving only a narrow passage for one person to pass through. There are more than a dozen camouflages in front and back of the cave covered with rubble, and even if the devils come back and find the abnormality, they will only think that the people of Qijiang have dug things here during this time, and they will never think that there are still people who dare to stay here and be caught in the urn. It took nearly two hours for Qi Xiaoyang to block the passage more than ten meters long with the stones left in the cave, and then he began to calm down and absorb the aura.

It may be the reason why this depth is closer to the spirit crystal mine, the aura here has recovered a lot of concentration, Qi Xiaoyang estimates that he can reach perfection earlier than expected, as for the problem of going out, he is not worried, no one can stop him in the case of a person, unless the devil blows up all the tunnels, even then, this risk has to be taken.

Qi Xiaoyang made a lot of calculations, but he didn't calculate that the devil seemed to be accurate and he was still in the cave, and the tricks he used were even more unexpected! At midnight that night, a land battalion of the island country drove to the island, and the first thing he did was to go straight to the mouth of the Tanah Lot Tunnel and use a poisonous trick that would make Qi Xiaoyang die!
