With Liu Fang's arrival, the materials for the array plate are finally complete!

As soon as Pretty Country's "textbook-level" scapegoating statement was released, the global diplomatic community instantly understood.

Immediately after, as if they had all communicated in advance, various countries, with a tacit understanding, began a unique game of passing the buck.

"We express our deepest sympathy for Sakura's misfortune, but our country's west coast has recently detected abnormal geological activity, suspected of a large-scale tsunami risk. To ensure the safety of our citizens, we must dedicate all our efforts to disaster prevention and preparation."

"We are deeply sympathetic to Sakura... but our country's northern border has been hit by a rare blizzard, causing traffic paralysis, and rescue forces are completely unable to be mobilized. We deeply regret this."

"We are... but our country's main grain-producing areas have experienced an unknown locust plague, and food security faces a major threat. We are truly willing but unable."

"We... but..."

For a time, the entire Blue Star was filled with "various regrets" and "deep concerns."

No country was willing to get involved in this hot potato of a mess.

And so, Sakura, struggling in the midst of natural disasters, was coldly isolated by the whole world with a series of perfunctory diplomatic statements, left to drift alone in the fiery sea of the apocalypse...

Meanwhile, at Qingxuan Sect.

Lin Mo's quiet room welcomed an acquaintance.

The person who arrived was Liu Fang, the personal guard of Ji Lingxue, the Eldest Princess of the Ancient Spirit Dynasty.

However, at this moment, this Immortal Master of the Golden Core Realm had an indescribable shock written all over her face.

"Senior, long time no see..."

"I never thought this would be the Qingxuan Sect where Senior resides?"

"When I first arrived here, I even wondered if I had come to the wrong place..."

Liu Fang's eyes were full of disbelief as she looked around the overly simple quiet room, her tone filled with bewilderment.

"What? Surprised?"

Lin Mo sat cross-legged on the futon, looking at her with a calm expression.

"Yes... I am a bit surprised..."

Liu Fang nodded, answering honestly.

"I originally thought that with Senior's heaven-shattering power, the Qingxuan Sect where you reside would be some reclusive, hidden great Sect within my Ancient Spirit Dynasty, unfathomable and awe-inspiring."

"Who would have thought... it would be so..."

"Ordinary, right?"

Liu Fang's words were interrupted by Lin Mo's smile before she could finish.

He stood up, his tone indifferent.

"Actually, you're overthinking it. I never said how powerful the Qingxuan Sect is."

"It's just a very ordinary, even somewhat weak, small Sect."

"So, when I leave here in the future, I hope your Ancient Spirit Dynasty can take care of it for me, just don't let it be destroyed by others."

"Senior's instructions, Junior has remembered!" Upon hearing this, Liu Fang's expression became solemn, and she immediately bowed respectfully.

"Please rest assured, Senior, after I return, I will convey your wishes to Your Highness exactly as they are!"

"The Qingxuan Sect will be an ally of my Ancient Spirit Dynasty from now on!"

Lin Mo nodded, then asked about the main matter.

"By the way, why did you come alone this time?"

"Where's Lingxue? Didn't she come with you?"

"Could it be that the Dynasty has encountered some trouble again?"

Hearing this, Liu Fang quickly waved her hand and explained:

"No, no, Your Highness is well, thank you, Senior, for your concern."

"It's just that Your Highness has too many affairs to handle right now and cannot get away temporarily."

"So she entrusted me to specially deliver the items you need to Senior."

As she spoke, Liu Fang carefully took out a Storage Ring from her bosom, holding it with both hands, and solemnly presented it to Lin Mo.

"Oh?"

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow and took the ring.

"Are these the Materials I previously entrusted you to collect?"

"Have they all been found so quickly?"

"Precisely!"

Liu Fang's expression became serious, and she continued:

"After Senior left, Your Highness has been very attentive to your affairs."

"She utilized almost all the royal family's channels and power, and finally, in the shortest possible time, collected all the Materials required on Senior's list."

"Entrusting me to come this time and hand them personally to Senior, can be considered a success!"

"Is that so?"

Lin Mo extended his Divine Sense into the ring, quickly scanning it, and found a large quantity of precious Spiritual Materials neatly categorized and stacked inside.

"Thank you very much, Lingxue, she is thoughtful."

With these Materials, the Formation Plate for the Myriad Origins Return to One Great Formation finally had a solution.

Thinking of this, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

"Senior is too kind. It is an honor for Your Highness and all of us to be able to share Senior's worries."

Liu Fang said respectfully.

Immediately, as if she remembered something else, she again took out another Storage Ring from her bosom.

"Oh, Senior, here is another gift, specially prepared for you by Your Highness. Please be sure to accept it."

Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, taking the second ring with some confusion.

When his Divine Sense probed into it, he was completely taken aback.

Because, within this small Storage Ring, there was actually a small mountain made of Spirit Stones!

Moreover, each of those Spirit Stones emitted an extremely rich Spiritual Qi halo, and they were all High-Grade Spirit Stones!

A full twenty thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones!

What kind of concept was this?

According to the one-to-one hundred exchange ratio in the Cangxuan Great Realm, if converted into Low-Grade Spirit Stones, it would be a staggering two hundred million!

Such a terrifyingly huge sum, even an ordinary Spirit Transformation Realm Cultivator would probably go crazy for it!

"What does this mean?"

Lin Mo looked up, curiously at Liu Fang.

"To thank Senior for helping the Ancient Spirit Dynasty suppress the rebellion of the Heaven-Supporting King and saving the Dynasty from impending collapse."

"Your Highness specially ordered people to take out more than half of the national treasury's reserves and present them to Senior as a thank-you gift."

"We hope Senior will not dislike it."

At this point, she paused, then added another sentence.

"Oh... this is also... the King's wish."

"Thank-you gift? The King's wish?"

Lin Mo keenly caught the keywords.

"Wait, Lingxue's father, the King, is he awake now?"

"Yes, Senior."

A hint of joy appeared on Liu Fang's face.

"Your Highness was extremely lucky. While inventorying the Heaven-Supporting King's Storage Ring, she unexpectedly discovered a Medicinal Pill that could nourish the Divine Soul, which barely allowed the King to awaken from his coma."

"However, the King's condition is still not very good, and his Divine Soul injury has not yet fully recovered, so he cannot personally come to thank Senior in person. Please forgive him, Senior."

"No matter, these are minor matters."

Lin Mo waved his hand, his fingers rubbing the ring containing twenty thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones, falling into a brief silence.

After a moment, he slowly spoke.

"Alright, I'll accept this thank-you gift. Please thank Lingxue and your King for me."

"Understood, Senior! Junior will definitely convey your gratitude!"

Seeing that Lin Mo finally accepted this grand gift, Liu Fang visibly breathed a sigh of relief, unable to suppress the smile on her face.

Twenty thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones, for the current Ancient Spirit Dynasty, almost emptied more than half of the national treasury's savings, which was definitely a significant blow.

However, if this "token of appreciation" could earn a good impression from this unfathomable Senior and strengthen his connection with the Ancient Spirit Dynasty.

Then this deal, for the Ancient Spirit Dynasty, was a huge profit!

"Since the items have been delivered, Junior will not disturb Senior's cultivation anymore."

"Junior bids farewell."

With the matter successfully concluded, Liu Fang very tactfully offered her farewells.

"Mm, take care."

Lin Mo nodded, not retaining her.

Liu Fang bowed respectfully again, then turned and left the Qingxuan Sect directly.

Lin Mo, on the other hand, returned directly to the futon in the quiet room and began to carefully check the Materials in the first ring, confirming if there were any omissions.

After a while.

"Mm, that's right. All the Materials on the list Gu Zhiyun gave me are here."

"Even the quantities of several rare Materials far exceed what's needed."

A satisfied expression appeared on Lin Mo's face.

"It seems Lingxue truly kept my matters firmly in her heart."

"Good, it wasn't in vain that I helped her with such a big favor."

"Now, all the Materials for making the Formation Plate are ready. I just need to wait for Gu Zhiyun to come out of seclusion, and then I can have her get to work."

"I just don't know when she will finally come out of seclusion?"

Lin Mo sighed softly.

It was at this moment.

He suddenly felt the Golden Core within his body tremble without any warning.

Immediately after, a vast and pure energy surged into his Dantian out of thin air.

The originally impregnable Cultivation Bottleneck of Golden Core Realm first level, under the flushing of this energy, shattered instantly like paper.

Crack.

After a soft sound that only he could hear, his Cultivation Qi began to rise steadily.

Breakthrough!

Golden Core third level!

The entire process was smooth and fluid, without the slightest obstruction or strain, as easy as eating and drinking.
