After everyone discussed, Ling Yuling said: "Fellow Daoist Lin, we can provide you with the Yuanci Divine Light Cultivation Method to ask for your help. What do you think?"
Lin Mo pondered for a moment after hearing this. , slowly said: "The Yuanci Divine Light is an important skill of your Star Palace, and I also understand that you A difficult situation. But there is still a gap between the exchange of exercises and the risks I face. I need more protection to help Xinggong." "What do you think we need to provide," Mr. Lin said. What kind of conditions can I get in exchange for your full help?" Ling Yuling asked.
“This.” Lin Mo smiled and said nothing, waiting for Xing Gong’s response.
Everyone fell into thinking and discussion again. After a while, the old man surnamed Zhao said: "Fellow Daoist Lin, we can add the right to use the Yuanci Mountain. As long as you can help us contain Wan Tianming, we can provide both."
Lin Mo pondered for a long time, and finally nodded slowly: "Okay, with Yuanci Divine Light and Yuanci Divine Mountain, I can agree to help Xinggong contain Wan Tianming. It's just that I have to save my life, I hope you can forgive me."
< br>"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lin!" Everyone looked happy, Xing Gong finally found a glimmer of hope.
After Lin Mo said goodbye and left the Star Palace Hall, the old man surnamed Zhao personally sent him to the side hall to rest.
"My star palace is deeply grateful to you, Fellow Daoist Lin, for your help. You can stay here with us for a few days to recuperate, and then leave after your energy has recovered." Elder Zhao greeted him with a smile.
"Thank you, Elder Zhao, for your help. I will be meditating here these days." Lin Mo responded politely.
After watching old man Zhao leave, Lin Mo stood alone in the side hall. He recalled the negotiation attentively, and vaguely felt that Old Man Zhao seemed to be hinting at something to him when he spoke at a critical moment.
"I wonder if Elder Zhao is hiding something fishy, or am I just paranoid?" Lin Mo said to himself. He decided to stay vigilant at all times during his stay in the Star Palace and carefully deal with various variables.
After Lin Mo left, Ling Yuling convened a meeting with several elders of Xing Palace to discuss countermeasures.
"I have reached an agreement with Lin Mo, and we hope to get his help." Ling Yuling said, "We need to formulate a detailed decisive battle plan to completely annihilate the Rebel Alliance."
"The Anti-Star Alliance city defense formation is extremely powerful, we must find a way to break through." Elder Zhao analyzed.
"I think we can ask Lin Mo to help contain Wan Tianming, and then Xinggong will attack the formation with all its strength." Another elder suggested.
"What a good idea. We can divide our forces into two groups. Lin Mo will lead Wan Tianming away on one side, and we will attack the city on the other!" Ling Yuling's eyes lit up.
"How about setting the date of the decisive battle on a full moon night? We must fight quickly."
"Okay, it's settled. We will go all out to defeat the Counter Star Alliance in one fell swoop! ”
Everyone nodded, and the day of the decisive battle in the Star Palace was decided.
Lin Mo was meditating alone in the side hall. Suddenly he opened his eyes, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He got up and went to a secret room, formed a few magic tricks, and projected a tiny point of light into it.
"Old thief Ximen, I finally found you. This time, you can't escape." Lin Mo murmured to himself, with a gloomy look on his face.
He fixed the light spot inside Elder Ximen's body, and when the time was right, he could immediately launch an attack.
“You hide it so deeply, and you seem to be quite wary of me. But it’s all to no avail, I will never let you go.”
The next day, Lin Mo followed Elder Zhao's instructions and went to visit Elder Ximen.
"My fellow Daoist Lin has extraordinary cultivation. It is really an honor for me, Ximen, to be able to teach you the wood-attribute skills." Elder Ximen said politely.
The two exchanged a lot of experiences on the wood attribute mentality, and Elder Ximen became more and more open to Lin Mo.
While listening, Lin Mo silently analyzed Elder Ximen's weaknesses in his heart.
"The old guy is quite enthusiastic and seems to be unprepared for me. He is bound to win this time." Lin Mo thought to himself.
After the two had a cordial exchange, Lin Mo said goodbye and left. He understood Elder Ximen’s habits and laid the foundation for implementing the plan.
In the dead of night, the alarm bell suddenly sounded in the Star Palace, and the disciples were running around in chaos.
It turned out that Elder Ximen suddenly disappeared. His cave was empty, as if he had evaporated from the world.
This sudden news shocked all the monks in the Star Palace, and they all rushed to Elder Ximen's residence, hoping to find out what happened.
"How could this happen? What kind of disaster has Uncle Ximen encountered?" Ling Yuling asked anxiously.
"Why did Elder Ximen suddenly disappear?" A Xing Palace disciple's voice trembled, obviously feeling incredible about this sudden incident.
"Yes, not even a body was left behind. How could this be possible?" Another monk was also discussing.
Ling Yuling frowned and stood among the crowd, her eyes were deep, as if she was thinking about something. The atmosphere inside the Star Palace became tense. Although no one dared to say it openly, many people began to secretly speculate whether there was something fishy behind it. This incident shocked everyone.
"We have sent people to search with all our strength, but we still have no clue." Elder Zhao sighed.
"Could it be done by outsiders? Or is it related to Lin Mo?" someone speculated.
"Stop guessing and search with all your strength first!" Ling Yuling shouted.
Everyone searched all night, but found nothing. Elder Ximen just disappeared without a trace.
"There must be a big problem with the disappearance of the old man Ximen. We must find out the truth." Ling Yuling said in a deep voice.
"Yes, this may have something to do with the Counter Star Alliance. We must be more vigilant."
"And if this person can do such a big thing quietly, his cultivation level must be It’s inscrutable. We need to proceed with caution.”
After discussions among the senior officials of Star Palace, they still could not determine who was related to the disappearance of Elder Ximen. However, among the crowd, suspicion towards Lin Mo seemed to be growing. After all, he only recently appeared in the Star Palace, and his strength should not be underestimated. It is very likely that he is related to the disappearance of Elder Ximen.
Ling Yuling looked calm and stared at everyone with deep eyes. She had already guessed that Elder Ximen's disappearance might indeed be related to Lin Mo, but she could not find any evidence. Under the rules of the Star Palace, you cannot accuse someone at will, let alone accuse someone wrongly.
Besides, the most important thing is that at this time, their star palace can be said to be begging for help, how could they put this matter on Lin Mo's head. If he really did that, he would simply drive Lin Mo away. "We need to stabilize the situation and not let this incident become a disagreement within the Star Palace. At present, the most important thing is to prepare for the Anti-Star Alliance." Ling Yuling said firmly.
Everyone nodded, realizing the emergency situation at hand. The threat of the Counter-Star Alliance is still before us, and whether it is the disappearance of Elder Ximen or other factors, facing this threat must wait a little longer.
Everyone fell into deep thought. The disappearance of the old man Ximen reminded them of the serious situation they faced.
"No matter what, we must prepare as soon as possible for the decisive battle against the Counter Star Alliance. I have sent people to recall all the outgoing disciples." Ling Yuling said.
Everyone in the Star Palace was in a state of tension.
In the Star Palace, senior elders gathered in a gorgeous conference hall, their brows furrowed and their expressions heavy. Ling Yuling was sitting in the main seat. Her expression remained calm, but there seemed to be an imperceptible worry in her eyes.
"The situation in the Star Palace is getting more and more dangerous. Is that Lin Mo possibly related to the death of the old man Ximen?" asked an elder in purple robes.
Another elder frowned and said: "Although we are suspicious, there is no conclusive evidence after all. Lin Mo is a powerful man with profound cultivation, and he always has a full explanation for these things. We cannot accuse him directly, otherwise It will arouse his disgust and may even make him hostile to Xing Gong. "
Ling Yuling. Nodding slightly, he muttered: "Lin Mo's strength cannot be underestimated. He is indeed capable enough to deny this accusation. We must be careful not to offend him."
"But If he is really related to the death of old man Ximen, what should we do?" Another elder said worriedly.
Ling Yuling looked calm and did not ask too much about the old man Ximen. He only ordered: "If you have no clue, just leave it for now. We must concentrate now and prepare for a decisive battle with the Anti-Star Alliance."
The senior officials of Xing Palace were well aware of the silent disappearance of the old man Ximen, but they could only make vague guesses and had no way of holding them accountable.
The elders discussed this matter privately, and all of them hesitated:
"The disappearance of the old man Ximen was too strange, and the timing was too coincidental with Lin Mo's arrival."
"Exactly . After our investigation, it was found that there was indeed no trace of the old man Ximen after Lin Mo left the hall. Coincidence."
"But Lin Mo is very advanced and we have no evidence to accuse him. We can only strengthen our defenses secretly. Don't take his words lightly."
"Exactly. We must unite and let this matter go.”
The elders sighed again and again, knowing how difficult it was. Lin Mo was so powerful that they were unable to investigate and could only suppress the matter.
"Well, if Lin Mo regrets midway, we must have a countermeasure."
A few people discussed in low voices, with solemn expressions. At this time, Lin Mo walked slowly, saw them, frowned slightly, and said: "Do you have anything to worry about? The war is coming, it is better to concentrate on dealing with the Rebel Alliance."
Lin Mo Reappeared in the Star Palace and attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone looked at each other, no one dared to express doubts. Lin Mo smiled, ignored him, and left.
The senior officials continued to whisper, fearing Lin Mo's strength and the city's power. If Lin Mo really wanted to harm them, how could he stop him? He could only secretly be vigilant to prevent Lin Mo from turning against him midway.
At this time, Elder Zhao felt like he was sitting in his heart. When he learned that the old man Ximen had disappeared, his expression changed drastically. He recalled the day before yesterday when he had a closed-door exchange of cultivation experiences with Lin Mo, and then the old man Ximen disappeared silently.
Elder Zhao has always been a careful person, and now he has noticed some abnormalities. Old man Ximen suddenly passed away, and Lin Mo came out of seclusion. These two things seemed unusual. He began to consider escaping, but was worried that he had nowhere to escape.
"Elder Zhao, what's wrong with you?" A monk with an equally keen mind noticed Elder Zhao's expression and asked with concern.
Elder Zhao quickly calmed down his emotions and said with a forced smile: "It's okay, I'm just nervous for a moment. The war is coming, so I'm just a little worried."
Elder Zhao secretly speculated that Lin Mo must have managed to get rid of the old man Ximen. He still remembered the look Lin Mo gave to the old man Ximen when he left the hall, which seemed to indicate something ominous.
Now that the old man Ximen has died, Elder Zhao does not dare to accuse Lin Mo rashly and can only avoid it. He lied that he had something important to do and stopped going to serve Lin Mo.
Lin Mo seemed to notice something strange about Elder Zhao, but did not expose it. He just said lightly: "If Fellow Daoist Zhao has something important, I won't be able to delay you. At the moment, we should focus on dealing with the Counter Star Alliance. "Come on."
Elder Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly said some words and left.
For the next few days, Elder Zhao hid in the cave and stayed behind closed doors. He was always wary of Lin Mo's whereabouts, fearing that he would follow in the footsteps of the old man Ximen.
Lin Mo's strength is unfathomable, so Elder Zhao can only be cautious, avoid everything, and hope that the end of the war will come soon.
Lin Mo reappeared in front of the disciples of the Star Palace. Although everyone was in awe of him, they still had some doubts about his purpose of participating in the war.
"Lin Mo is a great monk. It may be easy for him to face the Counter Star Alliance alone. Why do he have to put so many conditions?"
"I heard that he can only deal with Wan Tianming takes action and doesn't care about other people at all. What should I do?"
Everyone whispered with different expressions. Lin Mo remained calm and said calmly: "I only have grudges against Wan Tianming, and I cannot get involved in your other internal disputes. But being able to intercept Wan Tianming will also be of great benefit to you. Don't be too worried."
< br>
After everyone heard this, they also knew that Lin Mo had a firm attitude, so they could only be wary secretly and no longer questioned outright.
At this time, Ling Yu appeared calmly and pacing, and said with a smile: "Brother Lin has promised, and he will not break his promise. The most urgent thing is for us to put things aside and work together to deal with the outside world."
< br>Lin Mo smiled slightly and nodded. The disciples of the Star Palace finally felt at ease and began to seriously prepare for the battle.
Lin Mo stood aside with an indifferent expression, but he had already seen these people clearly in his heart. He only needs to wait for the retreat to end, so that he can obtain the divine light of Yuanci and successfully achieve the purpose of his trip.
Ling Yuling summoned all the disciples and laid out an attack plan.
Ling Yuling pointed at a red dot on a huge strategic map, which represented the Wind and Fire Pillar of the Counter Star Alliance. This is an important position for the Counter Star Alliance and holds important resources. Breaking it will greatly weaken the strength of the Counter Star Alliance.
"We have received reliable intelligence. The Defense of the Wind and Fire Pillar of the Counter Star Alliance is relatively weak at the moment. We will launch a raid in three days, hoping to break through their position in one fell swoop." Ling Yuling's voice was firm and Be confident.
All the monks were looking at the strategic map, knowing that this battle would determine the fate of the Star Palace. If the pillar of wind and fire can be successfully broken, it will bring a major advantage to Xinggong.
"This battle cannot be underestimated, and we must be fully prepared. Everyone exerts their best strength, and we cannot lose!" Ling Yuling's voice was passionate, conveying firm determination. (End of this chapter)
