Chapter 169 Breaking through the limitations of SSS?
Qicheng.
In some inconspicuous little corner.
The buildings here are not only old, but also very low.
A single-entry courtyard feels a little like a farmyard. In the middle of the courtyard, there is a person sitting on the ground, frowning for a while, stretching for a while, as if he is thinking about something.
It was raining continuously outside, but not a drop fell on the open courtyard.
It's not just that.
Even if you want to look into the courtyard from the tall buildings around you, you can't tell what's going on inside.
It was obviously open, but it seemed to be obscured by a layer of fog, making it difficult to see clearly. Not even a human figure could be seen.
And the person in the middle of the courtyard who was pouring out his thoughts was none other than the strongest person in the city, and even in the entire area.
Li Xiao!
His retreat this time can be considered a protracted one.
He didn't show his face outside for a whole week.
Li Xiao was sensing the energy changes in his body at this time. He had been observing carefully, fearing that something strange would happen in his body.
It's not that I'm afraid something went wrong in my seclusion, it's mainly that I want to lock in all the energy beyond the SSS level absorbed from those beast kings.
It is not easy to kill the Beast King. After all, the number is small. If the opponent is determined to die, it will be more difficult to deprive him of this power.
Fortunately, Li Xiao had always been very decisive in taking action before and was never ambiguous when it was time to take action. This time he absorbed a lot of energy.
It took him a week to absorb the energy beyond the SSS level of the black python, the white tiger and the golden lion.
I originally thought that I could only absorb half of the energy gathered in a hurry, but I never thought that I would unexpectedly gain 70%. This is really an unexpected surprise.
It's just a pity.
It's a pity that I couldn't keep the black bear at that time, so I didn't fully succeed.
If the black bear is left behind, not only will the energy absorption be greatly increased, but all the beast kings in the next area will be annihilated here, and the future security of Qicheng will also be greatly improved.
"It seems like there is a wall in the middle. Even if the black bear's energy is absorbed by me, this wall will not be so easy to break through."
Li Xiao touched his chin and thought.
He seemed to feel that the upper limit of SSS level was like a ban.
Even if you have absorbed all the energy you need, when you really need to make a breakthrough, some unexpected situations may occur.
Well...
But no matter what, you have to find opportunities to try it later, otherwise, you will never know the right way to go.
He stood up, and the tree of mutation was still green and dense.
Each fruit is hidden among the branches and leaves. It is difficult to see it unless you look carefully.
He picked one or two at random, and after strengthening the entrance, they turned into a stream, flowing down the throat, giving people a refreshing pleasure.
The enhancement fruit's help to Li Xiao at this time can almost be said to be better than nothing.
But regardless of its special attributes, even if it is just eaten as an ordinary fruit.
Whether from the perspective of taste or freshness and sweetness, the fortified fruit can be said to be the top-ranked fruit that Li Xiao has ever tasted.
After a short while, after Li Xiao pulled his thoughts away from matters such as cultivation and energy, he finally reacted.
Wrong...
Why do you feel that the surrounding area is too quiet?
It’s not just quiet, it’s a little too quiet!
Not to mention the noisy people who came to visit him in an endless stream, Li Xiao really didn't like this noisy environment.
But neither Chen Xuan nor Yi Xue could be seen. Isn't this a bit strange?
I thought about it a little bit.
It seems that in the past few days, I haven't heard any movement around me. It has always been so quiet.
He quickly scanned his surroundings with his consciousness.
Not bad, not bad.
Although Li Xiao's courtyard is considered very remote in Qicheng, there are still some streets around it.
A little inspection shows that the flow of people on the street is not only not reduced, but also more than usual.
It should be the reason why the satellite city and the main city of Qicheng have been opened to traffic at this time.
It must be so lively because nothing big happened.
Then it doesn't matter.
What made Li Xiao a little bit strange was that Chen Xuan, as the guard of a city, had already repelled the beast tide, and dealt with various post-war disposal issues.
Whether it was rewards based on merit, payment of pensions, the influx of a large number of survivors, etc., it was no exaggeration to say that he was extremely busy.
Chen Xuan didn't have time to come over, and he understood it very well.
But Yi Xue...
What is the situation?
He remembered that Yi Xue was a very introverted person.
Since she is in seclusion, there is a high probability that Yi Xue will also follow her in seclusion. After all, her own yard now has more than ten times the intensity of spiritual energy. With the relationship between Li Xiao and Yi Xue, Li Xiao had already invited Yi Xue before. After snow, you can go to your own yard for retreat. After all, there is more than one room in the yard.
But seeing no sign of anyone entering or leaving the room, it was obvious that even Yi Xue had never been there.
Then why did she go...?
"Hey, little brother."
Courtyard, door.
There were two people standing, looking intently and looking serious.
They work in three shifts, each of which lasts eight hours, and rotate in this way.
In fact, the third shift is already very hard. I stand here without moving for eight hours, and I have to observe the surroundings at all times.
This is a big challenge, both mentally and patiently.
But even so, none of them complained about suffering, and they were all vying to come here to stand guard.
If you say you won't let him stand guard, then he will have to make a fuss to show you.
Because they know that they are standing guard for Lord Li Xiao, the hero of all humans in this area!
Let alone eight hours, they are willing to work two shifts for twelve hours!
At this time, a superpower who was standing seriously on guard suddenly heard someone calling him.
Um?
Without moving his body or even moving his head, he scanned the surroundings with his eyes.
No one passed by?
The road leading to the courtyard where Li Xiao was located was blocked, and no one could walk through it.
Not to mention this road, even in the alleys closer to the courtyard, if you want to pass by, you will be searched by plainclothes superpowers, and they are not careless at all.
He thought he heard it wrong, but the voice called him again.
Is this haunted?
He was stunned for a moment, but his clever heart instantly turned into ecstasy.
There is only one possibility, that is Lord Li Xiao is calling him!
Master Li Xiao is out of seclusion!
He didn't care whether he was standing guard or not. He immediately turned around and saw that the door had been opened.
There was a young man looking at him with a smile.
Then he said something that made him stunned again.
"Where is Yi Xue? Do you know where it is?"
