Seeing that the Great Qian Emperor had permitted it, Lin Xue's expression immediately brightened, and she quickly bowed in thanks.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is wise!"
When entering this city of cultivators, she had been filled with curiosity, eager to see what a cultivation imperial dynasty was like, and now her wish was finally granted.
Lin Zihao's little face turned red with excitement, brimming with enthusiasm.
He was already imagining himself strolling down the street, encountering a cultivator who would take him as a disciple, and thus becoming a cultivator himself.
The others were also moved, their hearts filled with curiosity about the capital city of this cultivation imperial dynasty.
After interrogating these fellow earthlings, Xu Mo prepared to leave.
There was nothing else to ask, and he couldn't possibly keep chatting with his fellow countrymen from China, could he?
That would expose his transmigration identity, and in his opinion, there was nothing much to talk about. He might as well use the time to undergo his Saint Ascension tribulation.
But at this moment, Chen Wu stepped forward and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, your subordinate has something to present!"
He took out the box that sealed the glass bottle, holding it with both hands, and presented it to Xu Mo.
Xu Mo was somewhat surprised, then recalled Fan Cheng's letter mentioning a strange glass bottle that was said to be very peculiar and capable of devouring attacks from the Half-step Divine Rope realm.
Upon seeing this information, Xu Mo was immensely astonished. Treasures in the Great Wilderness were incredibly scarce, and items capable of devouring attacks from the Half-step Divine Rope realm were rarely seen.
Therefore, he believed the glass bottle should be an extraordinary treasure.
However, after meeting his fellow earthlings and discovering the connection between the Great Wilderness and Earth, he had put the matter out of his mind.
"Hmm, well done, you two have done very well," Xu Mo praised, then took the box.
Hearing their Majesty's praise, Chen Wu and Wang Hao were both extremely excited, their faces flushed with emotion.
This was praise from His Majesty himself!
In the Great Qian Dynasty, how many people could receive His Majesty's commendation? Clearly, as of today, they were two of them.
Gongsun Rou looked at the box in Xu Mo's hand, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly, and said, "There are so many restrictions sealed on this box. Fan Cheng attaches great importance to the contents inside!?"
She herself was at the Half-step Divine Rope realm and could sense the strength of the restrictions on the box.
If she were to break them, it would likely take several days.
"Indeed, he attaches great importance to it, otherwise he wouldn't have sent it to the imperial capital for me to inspect its nature," Xu Mo said.
As he spoke, Xu Mo casually wiped his right hand over the box. With two clicks, the restrictions were instantly broken, taking less than a second.
Seeing this, Gongsun Rou's heart trembled, and she thought to herself that His Majesty's cultivation had indeed reached unfathomable depths, which only deepened her reverence for him.
With the restrictions broken, the box became an ordinary container. Xu Mo opened it and then saw the item inside.
"This... isn't this a message in a bottle!?"
Xu Mo's eyes widened slightly, his mind racing with unspoken thoughts.
Inside the box, a glass bottle contained a slip of paper, and its opening was stoppered with a cork. This unique appearance was unmistakably that of a message in a bottle.
Back on Earth, he had even used the message in a bottle feature on a certain app for making friends.
Gongsun Rou saw the item in the box and also heard His Majesty's words, and she was immediately confused, "Your Majesty, what is a message in a bottle?"
"A message in a bottle is when you write your thoughts on a piece of paper, seal it in a bottle, and then throw it into the sea, letting it drift and waiting for someone fated to find it," Xu Mo explained.
Gongsun Rou suddenly understood, grasping the meaning of a message in a bottle.
At the same time, she became interested in the concept, finding the idea of a message in a bottle to be quite intriguing.
Meanwhile, the earthlings nearby were somewhat shocked, looking at Xu Mo with peculiar expressions.
Wasn't this Great Qian Emperor a native of the Great Wilderness?
How could he seem so much like an Earthling, even knowing about things like message in a bottle, and knowing them in such detail?
Lin Xue's beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked at Xu Mo, her suspicion growing that this Great Qian Emperor was remarkably similar to the people of China.
At this moment, Xu Mo had already taken the message in a bottle out of the box.
His brow furrowed, and his heart was heavy.
Fan Cheng had said this item could devour attacks from the Half-step Divine Rope realm, but this was clearly an ordinary message in a bottle, common on Earth, and unlikely to possess any supernatural power.
However, Xu Mo knew Fan Cheng wouldn't joke with him, so what he said was likely true.
As expected, the moment he touched the message in a bottle, Xu Mo felt its extraordinary nature.
He infused his spiritual power to investigate, wanting to see what this message in a bottle truly was, but his spiritual power sank into it as if falling into an abyss, utterly unable to probe its depths!
His spiritual power was directly devoured!
This shocked Xu Mo greatly. He was currently at the Half-step Saint cultivation level, with incredibly powerful spiritual power that had long since materialized. For this message in a bottle to be able to devour it was simply outrageous!
In an instant, Xu Mo attached immense importance to it. This message in a bottle was indeed not simple! It could not only devour attacks from the Half-step Divine Rope realm but also the spiritual power of a Half-Saint.
Xu Mo then turned his gaze to the cork at the bottle's opening, reaching out to try and remove it to retrieve the paper inside.
But no matter how much force he exerted, he could not budge the cork; the message in a bottle remained utterly still!
A piece of information was transmitted from the message in a bottle to Xu Mo's mind.
The general meaning was that to open this message in a bottle, one would need at least Saint-level strength.
This made his pupils contract slightly. This message in a bottle actually required a Saint to open it, and he, a Half-Saint who had one foot in the Saint realm, could not open it!
Gongsun Rou noticed His Majesty's actions, her expression filled with shock, and said, "This message in a bottle cannot even be opened by Your Majesty. What on earth is it?"
Her heart was immensely shaken. In her estimation, His Majesty's strength had already reached the Quasi-Saint realm, also known as the legendary Half-Saint.
Such terrifying strength placed him at the very pinnacle in the Great Wilderness, yet he couldn't even open a bottle? This was somewhat frightening.
"I'm not sure. This message in a bottle requires Saint realm strength to open, it's very peculiar!" Xu Mo said with a grave tone.
According to Fan Cheng, this item had drifted from the sea of Earth and belonged to Earth.
But Earth had no supernatural powers, so why would such a wondrous item as a message in a bottle exist there?
Xu Mo estimated that the message in a bottle in his hand was already close to being a Saint artifact.
"Only Saint realm can open it?!" Gongsun Rou's mouth widened slightly, her expression incredulous.
That was the Saint realm, a realm that had only seen three individuals in the history of the Great Wilderness, an existence of extreme rarity.
This message in a bottle required a Saint to open it. What was recorded on the paper inside? Was it a great secret?
