Two days later.
Li Yun and Ding Bosheng traveled leisurely along the way, but still managed to reach the Royal City of Tian Yue Continent.
"You go in first, I'll find a place to properly contemplate the Dao Scripture you gave me. I feel that this part of the Dao Scripture you gave is unfathomable, with hidden mysteries. Perhaps, thanks to you, I might be able to take another step forward soon."
In front of the West City Gate of the Royal City.
The two stopped their steps.
Ding Bosheng's eyes were shining. Along the way, Li Yun had already passed on the first ten chapters of the Tao Te Ching to him, and after a brief initial contemplation, the Dao rhyme on his body had obviously become richer.
Even his own Law Manifestation seemed to show signs of advancing further.
This made Ding Bosheng realize that the 'unknown Dao Scripture' imparted by Li Yun was probably also extraordinary.
He was eager to find a quiet place to contemplate it properly.
Upon hearing this, Li Yun's eyes also lit up.
Reaching Heaven Nine Realms: the first is Celestial Human, the second is Law Manifestation, progressing layer by layer.
Ding Bosheng was at the Peak of the Dharma Manifestation Realm. If he took another step forward, he would be in the Dao Seed Realm.
Using Law Manifestation as a talisman, condense the Dao Seed.
This step can be said to be extremely crucial, and can be considered a watershed in the Reaching Heaven Nine Realms.
If stepping into the Celestial Human Realm before meant stepping onto the starting point of a path leading to Immortals and Gods, then condensing the Dao Seed using Divine Power Law Manifestation as a talisman meant initially stepping onto the heavenly steps on this Tongtian path.
It also meant that a truly personal Great Dao belonging to the Martial Artist would genuinely begin to sprout.
Everything in the past would be like fleeting clouds, not worth mentioning.
No matter if it's Celestial Human or Law Manifestation, if they dare to obstruct the Great Dao, the result will be becoming withered bones beneath the Great Dao's feet, without exception.
With such a Realm.
Even within the Sky-Splitting Dynasty, they would be qualified to carve out a city and become a king or overlord.
They would truly be worthy of being called a big shot.
On the eve of heading to the Sky-Splitting Dynasty, if Ding Bosheng could truly condense the Dao Seed, it would definitely be a great thing for Li Yun.
Anyone who wanted to deal with Li Yun would have to think thrice and deliberate repeatedly, carefully weighing whether the consequences of offending a Dao Seed Realm big shot were something they could bear.
"Good!"
"Then I wish Brother Ding a successful condensation of the Dao Seed."
Ding Bosheng looked deeply at Li Yun, and once again instructed Li Yun that although he had entered the Royal City and various forces would restrain themselves, and hidden powerhouses would not easily make a move, he still needed to be careful and could not completely rule out the possibility that someone might still take a risk and choose to kill him in the Royal City.
Li Yun indicated that he understood.
Once there were signs of encountering such a risk, he would immediately summon Ding Bosheng.
Only then did the two separate.
One flew away, while the other calmly walked towards the West City Gate.
The guards at the West City Gate were quite strict.
Li Yun secretly released his spiritual sense, and combined with the Heaven's Mansion Divine Power Listening Wind, he immediately knew that there were at least twenty Spirit Cocoon Realm experts and three Soaring Sky Realm experts stationed near the West City Gate at this moment.
This was quite extraordinary.
It was just a city gate, yet there were such experts stationed here.
It was no less than Heavenly Martial Sect's Gu Xiaoxian leading a group of Elders to be in charge. If an ordinary Martial Artist dared to cause trouble at the city gate, they would simply not know what death was.
However, the city gate guards did not stop people from coming and going.
They didn't even check the identities of the people passing through.
This was not because the city gate guards were neglecting their duty.
It was because there was no need.
In the Royal City, the arena built by people sent by Ninth Princess Zhao Ziyue was nearing completion. In a few days, the confrontation with the Peerless prodigies of Wantu Kingdom would officially begin.
This period was when Martial Artists from the Twelve Prefectures of Mystic Moon Kingdom were pouring into the Royal City in large numbers. Some came to watch the excitement, some came to cheer for the Peerless prodigies of Mystic Moon Kingdom, and some came to participate in the martial arts competition.
The number of people was countless.
If every single person's identity was strictly checked, not to mention whether there were enough personnel, the time delay alone would be considerable.
It was better to treat all visitors as guests and let them all in.
However, this would increase the burden on the Royal City guards.
Normally, those Royal City guards only needed to patrol routinely every so often, but now they not only couldn't perform routine duties but also had to increase personnel and strengthen patrols on every street in the Royal City non-stop for twenty-four hours, to prevent those with ulterior motives from taking the opportunity to mix into the Royal City and cause trouble.
After Li Yun entered the Royal City, he clearly felt that the atmosphere inside the Royal City subtly carried a hint of suppression.
Even though the confrontation between the Peerless prodigies of Mystic Moon Kingdom and Wantu Kingdom was being discussed everywhere, it couldn't dispel this suppression that permeated the air and was growing stronger.
Li Yun was new to the Royal City and didn't know where to go for a while.
So he prepared to find a restaurant to rest his feet, eat something, and incidentally inquire about the whereabouts of Zhao Ziyue or Ye Tianxie.
However, all the inns and restaurants were full.
Li Yun changed four or five inns and restaurants but couldn't find a single seat, feeling a bit speechless.
"Young Lord Dongyang... Hey, is that really you?"
Just as Li Yun was about to turn around and continue searching for the next inn, a rather surprised voice suddenly came from the window on the second floor of the inn beside him.
Upon hearing the voice, Li Yun also felt a sense of déjà vu, so he looked up and was immediately surprised. It was indeed an old acquaintance.
The person was dressed in black, with a thin figure, but naturally possessed a fierce dominance. It was none other than Little Fist God He Yiming, who had been defeated by him on the top of Flying Goose Tower.
Li Yun's impression of this Little Fist God He Yiming was eccentric, overbearing, and gloomy.
But looking at him now, he seemed like a different person compared to before.
The current Little Fist God He Yiming was more dominant than before, but his temperament was less eccentric and he no longer had that uncomfortable gloominess.
Instead, he looked more like a sunny youth.
Well, it's worth mentioning that Li Yun also felt Innate True Qi of no low quality on him, at least above sixth grade.
It was clear that after Flying Goose Tower, this Little Fist God He Yiming had also successfully completed the post-natal reversal to Innate, becoming a Transcendent Realm Martial Artist.
Li Yun withdrew his gaze and smiled, "He Yiming, so it's you. Since we parted at Flying Goose Tower, it seems you've made significant progress."
Little Fist God He Yiming's mouth twitched.
He cupped his hands and said, "That's all thanks to Young Lord Dongyang. Young Lord Dongyang is looking for a seat... Haha, the nearby inns and restaurants are all full right now, you won't find one."
"But I still have a seat here. If you don't mind, how about coming up for a couple of drinks together?"
Li Yun agreed without thinking.
"Okay, then I'll shamelessly freeload a meal from you."
After speaking.
Li Yun was not polite and walked directly into this inn.
At the same time, the drinkers in the inn were in an uproar. Many people knew that this handsome young man who had just entered was Young Lord Dongyang, Li Yun, who had been widely discussed in the past two days, claiming he would beat the Peerless prodigies of Wantu Kingdom one by one.
For a time.
There was a lot of discussion.
The attention of many Martial Artists was drawn to Li Yun.
