As an important steel base in Xiqin Prefecture, after several heavy snowfalls, the surrounding fields were covered with a thick layer of snow.

Severe beast tide and snow disaster have seriously affected the normal operation of the city. Due to the suspension of production in many mining areas, many smelting factories have to choose to suspend production and maintenance due to raw material supply problems. A large number of troops have gathered here to prepare to clean up the alien beasts that occupy the mining areas.

Some of the barriers outside the city were filled with various military vehicles, and the surroundings of this northern metallurgical city became military camps.

In just three days, Ling Li returned to Xiqin Mansion from the Ice Domain Ice Field.

Ling Li had removed her disguise and restored her true identity at this moment.

After leaving Jieya City, he flew directly over the Tangwu Plateau with an average altitude of 6 or 7,000 meters.

This snowy plateau that lies across the eastern region and the northern region is relatively calm. Most alien beasts and insects are not very adaptable to life on the plateau. Even when migrating south, they try to avoid this plateau. Because the existence of this natural barrier makes the entire eastern region look much safer and not greatly affected.

Even the extraordinary people cannot fly directly in the Yanran Mountains, with an average altitude of more than 8,000 meters. Ling Li spent nearly a day when crossing this mountain range. This made him determined to build a high-end aircraft for himself so that he could move more freely in the future.

Since the Cataclysm, humans have shifted their focus from aircraft to field-effect aircraft. In fact, the most difficult thing to solve is the power problem. As the saying goes: As long as the power is enough, bricks can go to space. In terms of materials and structure, humans still have some problems that cannot be solved for the time being.

The Huer Mountain, Yin Mountain, Heishan Mountain and Langshan in the northern part of the eastern region are now full of military camps. The army has built three blockade lines to prevent the beast tide in the north from spreading to the south again. After all, the threat posed by strange beasts, especially high-level strange beasts, poses too great a threat to the production and life of ordinary people.

When crossing Montenegro, Ling Li saw that almost all the mountain passes had built strong defense fortress posts, and vehicles entering and leaving the mountain were subject to strict inspections.

Ling Li's colonel rank and officer certificate were very effective. He walked smoothly to the Heishan Defense Command, which was located in a barrier north of Heishan City.

He first called Jiang Tianyuan, who was commander-in-chief, and Lao Jiang asked him to report the situation directly to his office.

He was a little surprised when he entered Jiang Tianyuan's temporary office and saw Nie Haiyang also.

After listening to Ling Li's report, there were not many unexpected expressions on Nie Haiyang and Jiang Tianyuan's faces.

"After the catastrophe, most cultivators realized that the changes between the world were not over, but just began." Nie Haiyang said after listening to Ling Li's report, "As the higher the cultivation level, everyone will recognize this view more and more. The history of human beings having written records on this planet is only six or seven thousand years. The longer-lasting history is actually legends, and it is impossible to verify its authenticity. For example, does the mythological era really exist? In fact, our understanding of this world is very limited."

Jiang Tianyuan smiled, "In fact, I still believe in evolution. We humans evolved from apes. We cannot be completely denied whether we have been inspired or pointed out by ancient mythological figures. However, I think that humans on the mainland now have no direct blood relationship with humans in the ancient mythological period."

Nie Haiyang said: "These academic views have always been controversial, but they can't contend with any results... I prefer that humans were enlightened in ancient times, maybe they were real mythical figures, maybe they were alien humans... In fact, the inheritance of human practitioners has always existed, but because the source energy is getting exhausted, the strength of practitioners is getting weaker and weaker. About two thousand years ago, most practitioners were no longer as good as warriors. Some archaeological discoveries show that in an earlier period, the weapons used by some generals or lords were difficult for warriors to wield before the catastrophe... "

Ling Li speculated in this regard that before the Red Flame Continent was sealed, there should be cultivators, otherwise there would not be so many secret realms on the continent. However, the current human beings do not seem to have a direct relationship with the mythological era tens of thousands of years ago. Many evidence from genes and genetics shows that today's human beings are new humans naturally evolved from ancient apes. However, where did the cultivators who lived on this continent go?

Many signs indicate that they should have left this sealed world tens of thousands of years ago.

"Looking at the information from the last catastrophe, the change started from the north and south poles. What changes have happened in the Antarctic this time?" Ling Li asked.

"There is no news yet. The southern polar region is separated from the mainland, and since the catastrophe, the ocean has become a forbidden zone for human beings. Even if a change occurs, it will not affect the Anka continent and the Southern Meccali continent so quickly." Jiang Tianyuan said, "However, the most dangerous thing is actually the coastal areas."

Nie Haiyang briefly mentioned some of the latest situation, and smiled and continued: "Some historical records do not necessarily have no deviations, and new disasters may be very different from the past, so there is no reference. However, since everyone is prepared for this, the losses of this disaster should be much smaller than the last catastrophe period. Our Xiqin Mansion used to have several secret realms, which can accommodate nearly 10 million people. In addition, everyone regards the void battlefield as a refuge when the disaster comes... So over the years, we have tried our best to expand the control range of various cities and treat it as a main retreat. However, you have discovered a new refuge..."

"The other world connected to the Nine Profound Secret Realm is actually much more dangerous than the Void Battlefield. Before I complete the exploration, I do not agree to large-scale immigration to that world. We need to explore the continent first... In addition, Minister Nie, is the Void Battlefield leading to another world?" Ling Li said.

"This... I can't figure it out." Nie Haiyang shook his head, "The range of exploration of the Void Battlefield is very small. I only know that it is a springboard for the other world to the world of the Chiyan Continent. Because there are boundary partitions, it is impossible to judge whether it is a complete star. There are more unknown and uncertain issues in the Void Battlefield, so it is more dangerous. Minister Qin and I are more inclined to increase our efforts to explore the other world connecting the Nine Mysterious Realm."

Ling Li nodded, "Okay, I follow the leaders' opinions and focus on that aspect."

Jiang Tianyuan said: "The greater the ability of a person, the greater the social responsibilities and obligations he has to bear. He only cares about his own practice, but does not care about the life and death of ordinary people. What is the difference between this and those cults? Using the power of the resources of the entire society to cultivate warriors is faster than those sects who are self-confidenced. This is also the main reason why the number of innate realm practitioners in the military palace is far more than those prefectures controlled by sects and families. Now that disaster is approaching, we must improve the strength of the army as soon as possible. Some cultivation resources cannot be grasped in our own hands... Do I understand what I mean?"

"I know that some of the money I earn will be spent on the school and the Jingwu General Association." Ling Li wanted to roll his eyes. The old man was urging around the bush and reminding himself to hand over some of the resources in his hand. How could he know that he still had tens of thousands of witch and demon cultivators under his command to support him?

The sources of information from senior management are actually much richer, with various channels. As for how to arrange it, it is not something he can worry about now. Just do your own thing first.

After exiting the Heishan Command, Ling Li returned to Qingyacheng along the Heishan, Langshan and the northern part of Enshan.

He did not rush to return to the Nine Xuan Secret Realm, but was cleaning up and catching strange beasts above the seventh level.

After all, this level of strange beasts are still too threatening to ordinary troops.

There are not many high-level alien beasts entering this area.

High-level strange beasts are also very intelligent and do not want to follow the beast tide to approach human residential areas. Most of them follow the periphery of the Tangwu Plateau and turn westward to enter the mountains of monsters.

The mountains and wastelands in that area are the real habitats for alien beasts.

Elite students from various universities in Xiqin Prefecture and elite military troops were deployed on the northern mountain range to prevent the beast tide from spreading to the south, and the streets of the Jiuxuan Secret Realm became much colder.

Ling Li has removed the fog array surrounding Jiuxuan City and moved it to the surroundings of Wumo Town.

In the current Jiuxuan Secret Realm, except for Jiuxuan City, all other areas have been basically open. Many collective farms have been built in the secret realm. Due to the abundant source power and the warm climate, around Jiuxuan City, the cultivated farmlands are covered with green wheat seedlings, and rice is also planted in some places close to the rivers.

Under the unified arrangement of Xiqin Prefecture, millions of new immigrants entered Jiuxuan Space and were engaged in various production activities. With the accelerated development of the secret realm, more immigrants will come here in the future.

Ling Li came to Duan's house, but saw Duan Tianya blushing with an old man dressed in a red face in order to regret his move.

Duan Tianya dug up many top federal scientists from the eastern states. After Ling Li met several times, he felt that these old men and ladies seemed straightforward and innocent, and sometimes they were indeed like children. Perhaps it was because they did not have so many scheming and simple minds that these people had achieved great achievements in the field of scientific research.
