It was also because of this that Su Yun could not help but think of those myths and legends. Immortals could fly in the sky, burrow into the ground, and roam the Great Void, although they were all fabricated and did not exist.
However, now that he had already established the path of cultivation, could he reach the level of the legends in the future? Would he have the chance to rely on his own strength to explore the myriad mysteries of this world?
“Therefore, Su Yun, I invited you here because I have a favor to ask of you on behalf of the Chinese military.” Zhao Guofeng’s words interrupted Su Yun’s thoughts. As he spoke, he took out a cigarette. After looking around, he looked at Su Yun and said, “This shouldn’t be considered a public place, right?”
Su Yun smiled and shook his head. He watched as Zhao Guofeng lit his cigarette and took a deep breath. “You don’t understand. China is under a lot of pressure now. Giving up on genetic research was equivalent to giving up the opportunity to compete with other countries. Whether or not we could stand firm in the new century would depend on the results of this exploration of the ruins. The mechanical path was also an important decision that China had made for its descendants. There were tigers and wolves surrounding them outside, and everyone was panicking inside. You should be able to tell from this battle that everyone’s hostility is very strong.”
As Zhao Guofeng spoke, he finished the cigarette in his hand in a few mouthfuls. It was obvious how much pressure he was under. “So, Brother Su, I invited you to the island because I wanted to give the Chinese soldiers a guarantee. Be it geneticists or genetic animals, they had long exceeded the normal understanding of humans. The soldiers could not gain anything from fighting them.
“I don’t expect you to personally participate in the battle. After all, individuals can’t participate in a large-scale firearms war. It’s just like how no matter how powerful those geneticists are, they can’t withstand a thermobaric bomb.”
Su Yun nodded. He agreed with this point. At the very least, in the current era, individual martial strength was not enough to resist high-scale firearms.
After all, everyone was still at the level of carbon accumulation. Even Su Yun, who had embarked on the path of cultivation, could not withstand the coverage of firearms with his current strength.
Ordinary bullets were nothing to be afraid of, but if a fighter jet were to fire, or even a cannonball, they would definitely die.
“However, there will definitely be situations of fighting over the beach later on. Therefore, I only hope that if a genetic animal or geneticist infiltrates your island, you can help.”
Zhao Guofeng did not hide his thoughts at all. Then, he looked at Su Yun and waited for his response.
A few seconds later, Su Yun looked up and sighed. “Old Zhao, I understand what you’re thinking, but I’ve been trying to calm myself down these past few years. There would always be trouble if one’s morals were not compatible. When one’s ability and mental state were not compatible, more problems would arise. I don’t want to be involved in these things anymore. I just want to be a carefree crane in this place far away from human habitation. That’s all.”
It was obvious that after hearing Su Yun’s words, Zhao Guofeng’s eyes flashed with disappointment. However, he quickly adjusted himself and did not show any emotions because of this.
Zhao Guofeng smiled at Su Yun and nodded. He extinguished the cigarette in his hand. “Brother Su, I respect your choice. Since that’s the case, just treat it as me coming here today to make friends with you. I’ll drink a cup of hot tea and I’ll be on my way. Since you don’t want to be disturbed, I understand. I only hope that you can open a new path. I will also do my best to protect this island. It’s just that there might be the sound of gunfire from time to time. I have nothing to say about this.”
Zhao Guofeng stood up straightforwardly, picked up the tea table in front of him, and drank it in one gulp. Then, he turned around and strode towards the helicopter.
Looking at the backs of Zhao Guofeng and the others, Su Yun’s eyes flickered with a thoughtful light.
Zhao Guofeng did as he said and did not disturb Su Yun anymore. He quickly led everyone to take the helicopter and left. On the plane, Old Peng sat beside Zhao Guofeng and said with some concern, “Su Yun didn’t agree to work with us?”
Zhao Guofeng looked at the wooden house that was getting smaller and smaller under the window and said uncharacteristically, “Experts are always incompatible with the secular world. What’s more, what he wants to pursue is to help us. For example, he wants to impart the Dao to the world and help China open another path.”
He looked at the distant sea and said domineeringly, “But no matter what, we have to defend this battle to the end. Who cares what kind of monsters they are? Whoever dares to stop us from seizing the last chance, we’ll make sure that none of them will be able to return!”

Old Peng was excited. He also understood that this battle was far from over. The truth was indeed as Zhao Guofeng had said. Not only was the battle not over, but the heated discussions in the entire world had just begun.
Almost everyone in the country was focused on this battle. The scene that the war reporter sent back to the crowd made them feel as if they were there too. This time, the officials did not deliberately hide this war and tacitly allowed the situation to be made public.
The sky was filled with cannon fire, fighter jets, and warships. These things that were almost impossible to see in peaceful times were now happening in this sea.
“I didn’t expect the first battle after the arrival of the new century to start here.”
“Our country is too domineering. Our firepower covers the entire island. So what if they’re geneticists?”
