Heading to the station of Zhou Xuanmen, Zhou Xuanmen happened to be out, so the disappointed Xiao Mu had to go to the residence of Senior Mei.

Senior Mei was home and upon knowing Xiao Mu's arrival, he immediately let him in. After some pleasantries, Senior Mei invited Xiao Mu to sit down.

"Your strength now..." Senior Mei looked deeply at Xiao Mu for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Xiao Mu's authority had finally surpassed his own.

Although he had long anticipated this day would come, he hadn't expected it to arrive so swiftly.

Xiao Mu guessed Senior Mei's thoughts. Sensitively, he didn't intentionally provoke him. Instead, he took out the Eternal Lamp, "Senior Mei, I'm here to return the Eternal Lamp. After you use it, you can hand it over to Senior Lu the Grand Elder."

Senior Mei's disposition was open and straightforward; he quickly regained his composure, thanked Xiao Mu, and took the Eternal Lamp. Curious, he asked Xiao Mu, "The condensation of the Domain Suppression Platform, while not extremely difficult, isn't easy either. The size of the resulting platform varies according to one's preparation. Xiao Xiao, I'm very curious about how large your Domain Suppression Platform has condensed."

Xiao Mu truthfully told Senior Mei the size of the Domain Suppression Platform he had condensed.

Senior Mei nodded, "One meter tall with a diameter of one and a half meters is quite large. However, I have seen larger ones. In my memory, the largest seems to have reached two meters in height and three meters in diameter, approximately eight times your size."

"Isn't that a bit exaggerated?"

Xiao Mu was taken aback by Senior Mei's words. The size of the Domain Suppression Platform is directly related to the power to suppress the True God Realm.

In essence, the larger the Domain Suppression Platform, the stronger its power to suppress the True God Realm.

"It's true, but that was during ancient times when the other party used the Heavenly God Treasure to condense the Domain Suppression Platform."

Senior Mei fell into deep reminiscence, seemingly nostalgic about his era, but soon his expression returned to normal. He smiled at Xiao Mu, "You need not be disheartened. The size of the Domain Suppression Platform and the level of one's strength are not absolutely proportional."

"The key is to see the level of control one has over the True God Realm and the Domain Suppression Platform. The stronger the control, the stronger the power one can wield. Conversely, if the control is weak, what's the point of a large Domain Suppression Platform? The larger it is, the harder it is to control, resulting in weaker power."

Xiao Mu nodded his head. For some reason, he still felt a bit disappointed inside.

Senior Mei laughed again, "Thinking about these things is pointless. It's better to take this opportunity to quickly use the Domain Suppression Platform to cleanse the divine light in the True God Realm, allowing the divine light to be full of spirituality."

"Remember, the strength of the spirituality of the divine light is not only the key to truly determining one's strength but also a critical factor for the future when condensing a temple in the True God Realm and advancing to the later stages of a True God, and determining the strength at that stage."

"Therefore, quickly enhance the divine light. The divine light is everything, and while the size of the Domain Suppression Platform has a certain effect on the level of strength, it is not the main contributor."

"Senior Mei, your knowledge is truly profound," Xiao Mu casually praised.

Senior Mei didn't know whether to laugh or cry upon hearing it.

After all, I have cultivated for tens of thousands of years, having become a True God back in ancient times. If I didn't know these basic cultivation-related facts, wouldn't my life have been lived in vain?

Xiao Xiao, your words lack sincerity and even your flattery is amiss.

"I heard you killed Chen Ming. While it was a bit reckless, you did well. Unless you use ruthless means to shock the eight Grand Elders, they will never learn to restrain themselves."

Senior Mei changed the subject, "By the way, I heard you encountered a major event in the Ancient God Village, where the grave of the ancient divine being Zhu Qianhao was opened by the Heavenly Court, and even the corpse was taken."

Xiao Mu nodded, acknowledging this matter, which was already well known, so it was impossible for Senior Mei not to know.

Senior Mei continued, "While you were in seclusion, our Headquarters investigated the robbery of Zhu Qianhao's corpse and finally found some leads."

"There are leads?" Xiao Mu was taken aback, feeling a slight sense of joy inside.

Finding leads so quickly shows that the Alliance's efficiency is indeed high.

Seeing Xiao Mu's interest in this matter, Senior Mei explained in detail, "A month ago, at the location of the Great Tang Ruins Headquarters, several Mutated Beings were consecutively killed by strong beings from the Heavenly Court. The identities of these Mutated Beings were strange, and some suspect this matter might be related to the robbery of Zhu Qianhao's corpse."

"The Headquarters sent people to investigate, and as a result, the Heavenly Court dispatched True Gods to descend again, sending over fifteen True Gods at once."

"Knowing this, Zhou Xuanmen has already rushed to the Great Tang Ruins."

"As for the Mutated Beings being killed, it has been left to the eight Grand Elders, with Lei Zhanghua assigned to investigate and handle it."

"Lei Zhanghua?"

Hearing Lei Zhanghua's name, Xiao Mu reacted with disdain, "What can this person investigate? Even in escorting someone up a mountain, he's capable of getting the escorted person killed halfway. Counting on him to investigate the Heavenly Court's conspiracy seems hopeless."

Senior Mei laughed, "Whether it's hopeless or not, the Great Tang Ruins are currently extremely dangerous. With so many True Gods descending from the Heavenly Court, who knows which True God has gone to the Great Tang Ruins."

"Letting Lei Zhanghua go investigate is fine. If he encounters a powerful True God from the Heavenly Court, we don't even have to deal with him; he would have taken care of himself."

From this perspective, there is indeed some truth to it.

Xiao Mu nodded, agreeing, "Senior Mei is right. In the past, we've been handling situations with the Heavenly Court, so it's only fair the eight Grand Elders take their turn. We can't always be the ones fighting with the Heavenly Court while they stand aside and watch for amusement."

"Haha!"

Senior Mei suddenly burst into laughter, "It's great that you understand this. However, being a member of the Alliance, it is our rightful duty to serve the Alliance. We cannot allow our connection with the eight Grand Elders to foster complacency."

Xiao Mu nodded earnestly, "You are right, Senior Mei. We are currently discussing the development of the situation between the Human world and the Heavenly Court. I just came out of seclusion and came to discuss the development with you, Senior Mei. As for the level of attention to the Alliance's matters, those eight Grand Elders can't even compare to me in terms of dedication."

"Haha!"

Leaving Senior Mei's Five Elements Divine Domain, Xiao Mu headed directly to the Logistics Department.

He needed to obtain resources from the Logistics Department for constructing Tai Mie Mountain, and during this free time, quickly transform Tai Mie Mountain into a place suitable for residence and secluded cultivation.

"Hello, Grand Elder Xiao!"

"Greetings, Grand Elder Xiao!"

The workers at the Logistics Department warmly welcomed Xiao Mu as he arrived.

"Xiao Lu."

Xiao Mu called to Lu Yuan, the Logistics Department group leader, just emerging from the office, "I need to construct my Tai Mie Mountain and require some array materials. Do you have any suitable Command Tokens here?"

Lu Yuan promptly replied with enthusiasm, "For the protective Great Array of the mountain, the larger the better. I don't know how many Command Tokens Grand Elder Xiao needs. We have the Thirty-six Tian Gang Array, Seventy-two Earth Array, 108 Array, 180 Array, 360 Array, and even the 365 Heavenly Gods Array. I wonder which one Grand Elder Xiao would like?"

"I recommend that Grand Elder Xiao choose the 365 Heavenly Gods Array. Such an array, to be used as a protective Great Array for the mountain, would definitely offer robust security."

"365 Heavenly Gods Array?"

Xiao Mu pondered intensely.

Soon he felt something was amiss.

The 365 Heavenly Gods Array, while it sounds intimidating and indeed powerful, cannot protect against real formidable beings any more than a standard 108 array or even the Thirty-six Tian Gang Array can.

The disadvantages are obvious: the larger the array, the greater the consumption.

And this consumption would be provided entirely by oneself, not by the Headquarters.

In other words, no matter what kind of Great Array Xiao Mu wants to construct for himself, the Headquarters can provide support. But once the Great Array is built, its consumption is solely his responsibility.

To expend extensive resources every month on a Great Array that can't protect against strong beings, Xiao Mu would have to be out of his mind to choose such a course.

"I don't need it to be that strong; a 108 array will suffice."

Xiao Mu quickly made his decision.
