There was no doubt that Long Yu's strength once again surprised Ye Lun.
When he saw that Long Yu followed him and broke through the twenty-fourth level, Ye Lun was overjoyed.
The stronger Long Yu he brought back was, the better it would be for him.
Even as a friend, Ye Lun was happy to see that Long Yu's strength was stronger than he had imagined.
"Yellow Sand Sky City is located above the twenty-fifth level … I could only break through the twenty-fourth level before. I don't know if I can break through the twenty-fifth level now."
Long Yu thought to himself. He did not ask Ye Lun for help. Instead, he raised his hand and gathered the Divine Light of Heavenly Mandate. With the power of the "You" character, he blasted out!
The twenty-fifth level of the Heavenly Mandate was broken, and Long Yu rose into the air without any hindrance.
"Amazing."
Ye Lun laughed. "Mountain Ghost, this is the first time I have seen a martial arts practitioner in the Initial Realm break through the twenty-fifth level of the Heavenly Mandate."
When he came here, Ye Lun no longer called Long Yu by his real name, but by his code name.
Obviously, above the twenty-fifth level of the Heavenly Mandate was the territory of Yellow Sand Sky City. It was possible to see martial arts practitioners from Yellow Sand Sky City at any time.
Some disciples of Yellow Sand Sky City in the Initial Realm, although they could not break through the Heavenly Mandate, could freely travel between the two levels. For them, this was the whole world they had lived in since they were young.
Originally, Ye Lun did not care much about exposing the identity of Long Yu. Anyway, Yellow Sand Sky City and the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Institute were enemies.
But since Long Yu did not want to make it public, he would use a code name, which was the same for him.
"I just wanted to try. I didn't expect that I would really come up."
Long Yu smiled and said casually.
He glanced around. The upper levels of the Heavenly Mandate were no different from the lower levels. The sky was full of colorful lights. The sky was colorful, and the ground was colorful. They were tens of thousands of feet apart, sandwiching this space in the middle.
In the air not far away, there was a yellow sand building that looked like a sentry tower floating, which made Long Yu a little curious. He pointed and asked, "What is that?"
"It's the Yellow Sand Watchtower."
Ye Lun said, "There are more than a thousand of these sentry towers on the twenty-fifth floor. They are separated by a certain distance from each other and can detect the situation within a certain range. Once a Martial Cultivator comes here, it will trigger the power of the laws in the yellow sand sentry tower and alert us that a guest has arrived."
"Most of the time, it's not a guest, but an enemy."
Long Yu narrowed his eyes.
"That's right. This sentry tower is mainly used to defend against enemies."
Ye Lun nodded.
"If I comprehend the Thundercloud Castle's Hidden divine character, can I avoid the detection of these sentry towers?"
Long Yu asked.
"Hidden divine text?"
Ye Lun was a little surprised. "You know quite a lot. The power of the divine runes is higher than the power of the Laws. Even if you only comprehend one percent of the power of the 'Hidden' divine rune, these sentry towers will not be able to detect you. "
"I see."
Long Yu nodded his head, indicating that he understood. He also felt relieved.
This way, if he wanted to escape, he only needed to activate the 'Hidden' divine rune to avoid these yellow sand sentry towers. To him, these yellow sand sentry towers were useless.
Of course, if he didn't encounter any situations, there was no need for Long Yu to escape. It was just a precaution.
"This is the 121 yellow sand sentry tower. Follow the direction of the sentry tower and you will see Yellow Sand Sky City after passing the first sentry tower."
As Ye Lun spoke, he led the way in the air at an extremely fast speed.
Long Yu followed closely behind him. Even though his martial realm was two levels lower than Ye Lun's, his speed was not inferior at all.
Ye Lun was surprised to find that even if he flew at his fastest speed, Long Yu could extend a pair of pitch-black wings and keep up with him!
This made Ye Lun a little puzzled.
Could it be that Long Yu, who was only at the Initial Human Realm, had the overall strength of a Human Tribulation Realm expert like him? This was too exaggerated!
Soon, the two of them flew through the air and passed by more than 100 yellow sand sentry towers. Then, a floating city formed by yellow sand appeared in front of them.
During this period, Long Yu did not activate the slightest bit of the 'Hidden' divine rune to avoid being seen by others.
When he saw the Yellow Sand Sky City at first glance, even people who had seen the world couldn't help but be a little shocked. That Yellow Sand Sky City was much larger than the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Institute!
The entire Yellow Sand Sky City was connected to the 26th layer of the Big Dipper and the 25th layer of the Big Dipper. It was like a stone pillar that occupied the entire space.
"How is it? Surprised?"
Ye Lun also said with a little pride, "Yellow Sand Sky City actually has two layers. The lower layer is in the 25th layer of the Big Dipper, and the upper layer is in the 26th layer of the Big Dipper. Only the strong can go to the upper layer, and the others can only stay in the lower layer for life. "
Upper layer, lower layer!
Long Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The first city lord of Yellow Sand Sky City was really powerful. He actually expanded Yellow Sand Sky City to such an extent and connected two layers of the Big Dipper. It was amazing.
"Mountain Ghost, can you break through the 26th layer of the Big Dipper?"
Ye Lun asked.
"I don't know, but it's better not to attract too much attention. I'll stay in the lower layer for the time being."
Long Yu said, shaking his head.
"Alright, I'll arrange it for you."
Ye Lun said, then reminded, "You have to be careful. Yellow Sand Sky City is divided into many factions due to the competition between us nine personal disciples. Someone might come looking for trouble with you."
Ye Lun said, then added, "Of course, with your strength, the people in the lower layer can't do anything to you. If someone from the upper layer makes a move, I won't just stand by and watch."
"En."
Long Yu nodded, indicating that he understood.
The two flew towards the huge Yellow Sand Sky City. Soon, they noticed that there were many martial cultivators guarding the entrance of the huge city. Each of them was a Heavenly Realm or Initial Human Realm expert.
When they saw Ye Lun, these guards respectfully saluted, then glanced curiously at Long Yu, but they didn't ask anything.
As one of the young masters of Yellow Sand Sky City, these guards naturally didn't dare to block Ye Lun's path.
As for the people brought by Ye Lun, they also didn't dare to ask too much.
These guards belonged to the neutral forces in the city, so no matter how the nine personal disciples fought, they wouldn't offend any of them.
After entering the city, Long Yu realized how huge this Yellow Sand Sky City was.
After entering the city, the first thing he saw was a bustling street, but there was no sky, only a ceiling that looked like yellow sand. Even the ground was made of yellow sand.
"This is the tenth floor of Yellow Sand Sky City. The whole Yellow Sand Sky City has a total of 108 floors. Each floor is a city street like this. If you want to go to other floors, go to the center of each floor."
As soon as Ye Lun's voice fell, Long Yu saw at a glance that there was indeed a beam of light in the center of the entire city, running from top to bottom.
From that beam of light, one could smoothly go to the entire city up and down 108 floors.
Of course, only those who could break through the 26th floor with their own strength were qualified to enter the top 54 floors.
There were many people in Yellow Sand Sky City. Just like Beihai Imperial City and Soldier's Death City on the Heavenly Mandate Continent, it was just a city, not a sect.
After a hundred years of development, all kinds of martial arts cultivators came to Yellow Sand Sky City, and many people reproduced here, so the whole Yellow Sand Sky City gradually developed and grew.
Because of this, Yellow Sand Sky City didn't need to hold the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection to recruit disciples from the Heavenly Mandate Continent like the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Academy did.
Many of the descendants of the original residents in Yellow Sand Sky City had good martial arts talent. With the strength of Yellow Sand Sky City, it was quite easy to cultivate them.
"Mountain Ghost, in fact, you came at the right time. Soon, the annual Sand City Competition will be held. If you can win, you can get a lot of rewards. I believe these rewards will be very attractive to you."
Ye Lun led the way on the street and said to Long Yu with a smile.
Along the way, people kept greeting Ye Lun, which showed that he, as a young master, was quite important in Yellow Sand Sky City.
"Oh? What rewards are there? "
Long Yu didn't ask what the Sand City Competition was. It was nothing more than a martial arts competition in Yellow Sand City, used to observe the cultivation of the younger generation.
What he cared about was the reward and whether he was qualified to participate in the Sand City Competition.
"There are a lot of rewards, the most important of which is that the top three can get the Sky-level elixir left by the first-generation City Lord."
Ye Lun smiled and said, "The first-generation City Lord returned from the outside world and left a lot of things. The Sky-level elixir is only one of them, and there are thousands of them. Every year, the Sand City Competition is held and three of them are given out. Now, they are almost used up."
Sky-level elixir!
Long Yu was interested as soon as he heard this.
He was now worried that there was not enough Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth for him to touch the bottleneck of breaking through. Since the Sand City Competition had Sky-level elixir as a reward, there was no reason for him to miss it.
"Can I participate in this Sand City Competition?"
Long Yu asked.
"Yellow Sand City not only pays attention to its own inheritance, but also welcomes foreign martial cultivators. Mountain Ghost, since you followed me to the Sand City, you are considered a member of my Sand City. No matter what happens, the Sand City will take care of it for you. Naturally, you can participate in this Sand City Competition."
Ye Lun replied.
"That's good. When does it start?"
Long Yu asked again.
"Half a month later …"
Ye Lun replied while squinting his eyes because he saw someone walking towards him.
Following Ye Lun's gaze, Long Yu saw a group of Martial Cultivators following behind a luxuriously dressed young man wearing a yellow robe. When that young man saw Ye Lun, a fake smile appeared on his face.
"So it is Junior Ye. Is this the prodigy that Junior Ye found from the continent?"
That luxurious youth glanced at Long Yu and didn't conceal the disdain in his eyes. "I heard that the prodigy of the Sky Cloud Sword Nation, Yunyue City, Bai Chenyan, was so infuriated by you that he ran to the Azure Water Sword Sect. Now, he only brought back this plaything to make up the numbers?"
"He is one of my master's nine personal disciples, Seventh Senior Brother, Qi Ziguang."
Ye Lun quietly introduced to Long Yu. He then lifted his head and glanced at the group of martial cultivators. "In my eyes, that Bai Chenyan isn't even comparable to one of Brother Mountain Ghost's fingers."
"Hahaha!"
The luxurious youth, Qi Ziguang, suddenly laughed out loud, followed by the group of martial cultivators behind him.
They all sized up Long Yu. A mere Human Initial Realm martial cultivator, and a nobody at that. How could he be compared to the rumored prodigy, Bai Chenyan?
