The ground forces' operations are also nearing their end. The entire Cherry Blossom Country is now basically under the control of Divine Land, and all possible resistance forces have been eliminated.
The bases originally occupied by the Eagle Country military, along with the large amount of supplies they left behind, were almost entirely absorbed by Divine Land.
It can only be said that after this incident, Cherry Blossom Country should henceforth take the surname of Divine Land.
After the ground forces had taken control of all areas, the work on the space carrier was slowed down. What remained were some construction and deployment matters, which, although important, were no longer worth the space carrier's escort.
The missions related to this operation have been completed, and the entire space carrier is ready to return to port.
Li Xingkong also hitched a ride back to Divine Land aboard the space carrier.
The disaster relief operation almost failed due to overexertion, but fortunately, Li Xingkong managed to complete it in the end. Moreover, thanks to this operation, he also realized just how powerful he could be when he went all out.
There were still many troubles to come. At least for Divine Land, the diplomatic disputes, the control of Cherry Blossom Country, and other matters were not easy. But for Li Xingkong, these things did not bother him.
Li Xingkong was more concerned about his own cultivation.
As his cultivation level grew stronger and his actions became more impactful, Li Xingkong increasingly felt that life on Earth Star was no longer suitable for him.
Now, whenever he makes a move, the commotion he causes is earth-shattering. Take this sword strike, for example. Although its purpose was to reduce the threat posed by the volcanic eruption, the area it slashed still suffered enormous destruction and casualties that have not yet been tallied.
Although he didn't care about the lives of the Cherry Blossom Country, this time it happened on Cherry Blossom Country soil, but what about next time?
My current techniques and spells are making too much noise.
Originally Li Xingkong went to the moon simply to find a quiet place to cultivate. But after this incident, he felt more and more that it was no longer appropriate for him to stay on Earth Star and that it was necessary to take a step into the universe.
However, all of this still seems somewhat distant now. Before setting foot in the universe, he still has many things to take care of.
Putting everything else aside, he hadn't even checked whether the Luo Shu he had crafted was effective. After all, it was the first magic artifact he had ever crafted. He had only put it aside before because of this unexpected event. Now that he was back in the Earthly Capital, he would continue to see if it was as useful as he had hoped.
"Beep beep."
Just as Li Xingkong was returning with the space carrier, his communicator rang.
When he answered the call, he found out it was Old Tang looking for him.
" Xingkong, are you feeling any better?"
"He's mostly recovered and there's nothing seriously wrong; he was just a bit overexerted."
During the few days he spent waiting on the space carrier for the ground troops to move out, Li Xingkong had almost fully recovered. Even the weight he had lost due to overload had been replenished through eating.
"This operation was all thanks to you, saving the people from dire straits. You probably wouldn't be interested in the cultivation resources here, but there's something I think you might find interesting."
Old Tang first offered a few words of praise, then spoke to Li Xingkong.
Li Xingkong originally thought that Old Tang wanted to see him about something, but it turned out that he was here to reward him for his contributions.
Li Xingkong had come into contact with most of the cultivation resources available in Divine Land, but they were mostly materials only useful at the Qi Refining stage, and were of little use to him at his current Li Xingkong.
The entire path of cultivation was taught by Li Xingkong, so during this operation, Li Xingkong never considered asking anything from Divine Land. After all, in his view, there was really nothing he could be interested in.
When Old Tang called this time, Li Xingkong really couldn't imagine what Old Tang had prepared.
It couldn't possibly be some kind of meteorite or alien relic, could it?
Since Old Tang had said so, Li Xingkong stopped following the space carrier back slowly and got up directly, heading towards Earthly Capital.
Just a few minutes after making the phone call, Li Xingkong arrived beneath the Earthly Capital.
"I knew that as soon as you made that call, they'd come right away."
In the Earthly Capital, Old Tang was already waiting for him, seemingly certain that Li Xingkong would arrive soon.
That's true. Putting everything else aside, he understands Li Xingkong's personality very well.
"Anyway, my injury has healed, and I happen to have something I wanted to ask you."
Li Xingkong sat down opposite Old Tang and said with a smile.
"Let's not talk about business now, here, take this."
Old Tang handed a small key to Li Xingkong.
"What's this?"
Li Xingkong picked up the key, somewhat puzzled. It looked like an ordinary key, without any Magic Power fluctuations.
"This is the key to the cultivation technique vault."
Old Tang took a sip of tea. "It's been almost ten years since the nationwide cultivation movement began. In these ten years, the entire country has undergone tremendous changes under the wave of cultivation. During this time, many geniuses in cultivation have emerged within the Divine Land Continent. Based on existing cultivation methods, they have also created various different cultivation techniques and spells."
"These spells and techniques are basically all collected in this cultivation manual, and many of them are quite remarkable in terms of both power and design."
"I think these techniques, while not very useful to you, are still somewhat useful. Since this is the perfect opportunity, I'm giving you the key."
"You may freely browse through all the cultivation techniques."
To be honest, Li Xingkong was quite surprised by this gift.
He thought about it for a long time before he arrived in the Earthly Capital, but he really didn't expect that the gift Old Tang would give him would be this thing.
A repository of cultivation techniques built upon the foundation of all cultivators across Divine Land.
Cultivation techniques are the easiest thing for Li Xingkong to obtain because of the system. But don't forget, the system also has its needs. It also needs Li Xingkong to provide some brand-new techniques that the system has not yet included, so that it can share resources with the entire system pool.
Therefore, this cultivation technique library is actually quite useful to Li Xingkong. Who knows if there are any techniques among them that Li Xingkong could compile into a system for inclusion in his cultivation manual?
At least Li Xingkong himself believes that it definitely exists.
After all, people think differently, and everyone's thinking is unique. Who knows, someone might create a unique method.
