Collecting the materials for the Origin Pill wasn't easy, but Gu Lan granted General Li Xiong substantial authority to collect them in the name of Lanyan Royal School. With spirit stones not being an issue, this should expedite the process. Given Lanyan Royal School's current rise, most forces in the Six Realms would give them some leeway. Even if someone from the Immortal Realm's seven great Houses was displeased, they'd likely resort to covert actions rather than direct confrontation for the time being.
Once the Great Competition of All Clans' rewards were distributed, Gu Lan didn't linger in the 33rd Sky of Divine Realm. After spending some time bidding farewell to the God's Reign Sect, Beast Clan, and others, he took Mu Yuyan and his faction to the Snow Clan Ruins.
