National Security Bureau, an enclosed internal location.
The area is roughly the size of a soccer field.
At this moment, hundreds of people are densely standing on the field, and they are none others but the soldiers and police officers elected from local military districts and municipal police departments across the country.
"Judging by your uniforms, you must be from the military district?"
"Are you from the municipal bureau?"
"Both military and police personnel, why has the National Security Bureau gathered so many people here?"
"What we don’t know is why we are here, but what we do know is that it must be a big operation."
This is their first meeting.
Seeing so many people around them, from both the police and military, they become increasingly confused and curious about why they have been called here.
The door of the closed venue slowly opens.
The scene falls silent.
No one continues to speak; they quickly straighten up, standing at attention with eyes looking straight ahead.
A figure steps into their view.
Song Xiangdong walks in slowly.
"Welcome everyone to this place."
Song Xiangdong scans around before continuing, "I know you are all wondering why you have been brought here. I will tell you, but before that..."
Upon saying this, he gestures with his hand.
Countless agents enter the enclosed area in sequence and distribute the documents they are holding to the soldiers and police officers.
Almost simultaneously.
The soldiers and police officers take the documents from their hands.

With just one look, they are all shocked.
The highest level of secrecy agreement?!
The soldiers and police officers certainly know what the document in front of them is. They involuntarily glance around.
Eyes meet with eyes...
Their gazes are filled with gravity and seriousness.
"Are we going to carry out a top-secret mission?"
At this thought, no one shows a trace of panic or fear on their faces. Instead, they exude a spirit of readiness to sacrifice their lives.
This is the essence of the soldiers and police officers of Great Xia!
Song Xiangdong’s voice continues to echo in their ears, "Before proceeding, you must sign this secrecy agreement."
Without the slightest hesitation.
To hesitate even for one second would be disrespectful to themselves.
The soldiers and police officers immediately sign their names on the sss-level secrecy agreement and solemnly hand it to the agents beside them.
They see this as not merely a secrecy agreement but also as a pledge to Great Xia, even as their very lives!
Soon, the agents, holding the signed agreements, exit the enclosed area.
The door closes slowly.
It is only now that Song Xiangdong starts to speak again, "I know all of you are outstanding, but being called here does not mean that everyone will be involved. We will select among you."
Upon hearing this, the soldiers and police officers instantly stand tall, fearing they might be overlooked.
They are the most exceptional members of their respective military districts or municipal bureaus.
Not being selected would be a disgrace.
They are not afraid of dying; they are afraid of not qualifying!
Song Xiangdong continues, "The reason for possibly involving you in this matter can arguably be said to be the most important event in Great Xia’s history, even without exaggeration, one that could overturn the entire world!"
His words leave everyone trembling with excitement, constantly speculating in their minds...
What exactly is the mission?!
He doesn’t keep them guessing for long.
Song Xiangdong gives them the answer.
"This mission is cultivating immortality, true cultivation!"
Upon hearing these words, the soldiers and police officers freeze, thoroughly baffled.
They even start to doubt if their ears are malfunctioning, mishearing.
Cu... Cultivating immortality??
They were called here not to perform some task?
Cultivate immortality?!?!
"Is cultivation of immortality actually a thing??"
The soldiers and police officers quickly realize where they are—the National Security Bureau!
Regarding cultivation of immortality...
If such a thing came from anywhere else, it would surely be false news.
But coming from the National Security Bureau...
It’s unquestionably legitimate!
For a moment, their bewildered minds are increasingly shocked.
"Cultivating immortality..."
"How did the National Security Bureau discover this?"
"Do immortals truly exist in this world?"
"How does one cultivate immortality?"
"Will there be an immortal to guide us?"
A series of questions flooded their minds.
The door of the enclosed venue opens once again.
The sound piques their attention.
They instinctively shift their gaze back to the door.
Under their watchful eyes.
A handsome young man, carrying a pitch-black wooden sword, walks in, led by a leader from the National Security Bureau.
And this young man...
Is none other than Lin Beichen, who was brought in by the National Security Bureau to assist in selecting cultivators.
Lin Beichen greets first, "Director Song."
Song Xiangdong displays a faint smile, nodding, and then gestures toward the soldiers and police officers before him, "These are the elite I’ve gathered for cultivation."
His gaze, along with Lin Beichen’s, sweeps over them briefly and then he straightforwardly says, "Take a look and select those whom you deem fit for cultivation."
The conversation between Song Xiangdong and Lin Beichen is not concealed in any way; in the incredibly quiet enclosed environment, it reaches everyone’s ears distinctly.
