Lin Mu looked at the tform and the fine runes that were directly carved into it. They seemed a bit familiar to him and after a few seconds, he realized them to be spatial runes that dealt with the spatial linking of the minor ne.


    "This… so the binding involves not only the control of the formation nexus but also the nes ess coordinates as well?" Lin Mu spoke.


    "This is a rather different way of doing a binding. Usually one would just link directly to the source of the minor ne, but in this case, since Kong Hutao had to prematurely deploy the minor ne, I guess the source was merged with the Xiaofan world as well." Xukong replied.


    More runes started to appear from the tform and arranged themselves into a formation that was different from the others. But this process was also far slower than the one before and it looked like each rune was being made with great precision.


    This gave Lin Mu the time to think more about the minor ne and what it would entail. He already had several ideas of how to make use of it. The biggest advantage was that he could use the resources stored in here for the fight against Gu Yao and the invader.


    But the only problem was that the ess point was limited to one location and if they wanted to procure the resources they would all have to go to the Hong Lin Kingdom. While this was fine on the surface, Lin Mu was sure that it would be quite rming for the sects and other kingdoms, if a lot of cultivators suddenly started to visit the Hong Lin Kingdom.


    These were already troubled times and everyone was getting suspicious about the actions of other powers. The alliances and opposition between the top sects had also split the lower sects into their respective camps.


    The two alliances, the Long Cloud Alliance and the Zither wind alliance were currently growing with wanton speed and it did not look like it would stop anytime soon. The top three sects seemed to be busy among themselves and it looked a bit strange as they weren''t really acting either.


    The only one among the three that seemed to be doing anything at all was the Rainbow pill sect, but even that was just taking advantage of the Emperor right now. It was now no secret that they were looking to create an alliance of their own.


    There were already rumors that the son of the empress consort was willing to marry one of the core disciples of the Rainbow pill sect. The said disciple was actually the daughter of one of the supreme elders of the Rainbow pill sect as well thus her status was no less than that of the prince either.

    In fact, her cultivation base was far higher than the prince right now. She was said to be at the peak of the core condensation realm. Though the only difference was that she was far older than the crown prince, being over fifty years old right now.


    Of course in the case of the cultivator''s age didn''t really matter as much since they could maintain their youthful appearance for hundreds of years. Thus even if there was about twenty five years of difference between the crown prince and the daughter of the supreme elder it was easily eptable.


    All these thoughts went through Lin Mu''s mind as he formted a solution that might help him and his own alliance the best. He knew that the current members were not enough and they would soon be expanding.


    ''Hopefully, the Long cloud alliance joins up with us. But even if they do, fully trusting them might not be the best thing. The resource distributional will probably get skewed if they are the ones providing it.


    Rather than that, I''ll need to find a personal bnce on a different front.? Hmm… perhaps for the smaller but more trustable powers such as King Hong, the Mu n, the Fei n and the Hei corps I can depend on the Minor ne for it.


    But even then the distance between all of them will be far too vast to efficiently take care of the logistics.'' Lin Mu thought.


    More time passed as the formation kept on progressing little by little. This process was sensitive and needed to be done without any disturbance or the problems that arose would be quite devastating to the entire formation nexus.


    As always, anything that dealt with the space and void was something that needed to be very carefully controlled. Anypse of focus could lead to devastating effects and they would not be something that Lin Mu would like to bear.


    "If only there was a way to allow multiple ess points to this minor ne…" Lin Mu muttered to himself.


    <i>~humm~</i>


    The ring on Lin Mu''s right hand hummed slightly bringing his attention to it.


    "Oh? You want to tell me something?" Lin Mu asked lightly.


    He closed his eyes and appeared in the internal space of the ring. The area around him was mostly bare except for the ethereal altar a short distance from him and the Grey egg that rested on a soft cushion near the barrier of the Altar.


    Lin Mu lightly gazed at the egg for a few seconds before heading towards the altar.


    "What is it that you want to tell me?" Lin Mu whispered.


    He knew the ring was sentient and that it was always listening. It had often given him hints and helped him. He didn''t know what the conditions for it to do that were but it didn''t hurt to think more about them.


    Lin Mu came to stand beside the avatar and ced his hand on the altar.


    He expected there to be something that would happen, some information that he would get, but nothing like that happened.


    "Huh? That''s weird… then why was I called here?" Lin Mu questioned as he looked at the altar.
