The bandits were completely useless without their monsters. Ye Mo and company killed them off with a few moves, taking their Dimensional Bracelets and splitting the items inside them evenly before scouting out the direction to the Seal City.

After that incident, everyone saw Ye Mo in a new light.

Even Wenren Yixiang, who had been completely disinterested in Ye Mo, started to take notice of him. The Dragon's Might that Ye Mo had displayed had shaken her. She didn't understand what kind of technique Ye Mo used to make those monsters lose their battle will.

Li Tianqiong wasn't too surprised. Having lost to Ye Mo once, he was used to the unpredictable Ye Mo. But, having advanced to the Fourth Tier of the Transcendence Realm, his Tianqiong Sword Technique had become even more refined. He believed that Ye Mo wouldn't be able to match up to him.

“According to them, we're quite close to the Seal City. Let's fly over there.”

The eight of them expanded their Caged Dragon Wings again and flew toward the Seal City.

Before long, a huge city appeared in Ye Mo's sights. As they neared the city, only then did Ye Mo realize that the city was a limitless, endless horizon.

A city the size of a kingdom in the Area of Desolation.

The eight of them flew faster. The city doors of the Seal City were big enough for hundreds of people to enter side-by-side.

As Ye Mo and company descended in front of the Seal City, Ye Mo looked up to see a majestic city door similar to the Ghost Axe Deity, and he couldn't help but look shocked.

The Seal City Wall was hundreds of meters tall. Even unleashing the Transcendence Golden Body wouldn't be enough to overcome it.

The city wall had a dark golden surface and glistened, and the walls extended outward to the horizon.

Ye Mo could also see that, above the limitless walls, were seals that floated above the skies of the city. The seals gave off sporadic light as well, giving onlookers the illusion of a shapeless light shield surrounding the city, enshrouding the whole of it.

The hundreds of seals together formed a defensive formation. It would be impossible to fly into the city.

That was the strength of seals and the strength of seal artists.

If one ran in recklessly, they would activate the formation. When that happened, they wouldn't even know it before they were killed.

“Legend has it that the Seal City has the strongest defensive formation on Lingwu Continent – the Tianluo Battle Deity Formation,” Dongfang Hong, the most experienced on in the group, explained. “It uses 9,999,999 Level Four seals combined. Even fighters in the Profound World Realm wouldn't be able to break through it easily. Even the Daluo Deity would end up caught in the Tianluo Web.”

“What arrogance. If the Daluo Deity were really here, a single thought would be enough to destroy this formation.” Ye Mo knew that his Zhu Immortal Magical Formation was already stronger than this Tianluo Battle Deity Formation. It was only because of his insufficient training level – otherwise, if he was in the Transcendence Realm, that Tianluo Battle Deity Formation wouldn't even be worth a mention alongside his Zhu Immortal Magical Formation.

If he wanted to dash straight through the formation, he could do it without being detected at all.

Furthermore, Ye Mo could also make use of seals to conjure up the Zhu Immortal Deity Magical Formation. When the whole of the Tianwu Kingdom was protected that way, no one would be able to invade it easily.

But the idea came with plenty of difficulties. First, drawing the Zhu Immortal Magical Formation using seals was well beyond Ye Mo's skills as a seal artist, unless Ling'er revived and was there to give him a hand.

Furthermore, to protect the whole Tianwu Kingdom would take a huge amount of effort – he'd probably had to reach the Profound World Realm in order to be strong enough to do it.

Entering the city entrance, Ye Mo's eyes swept across the majestic city. The Seal City, the most advanced city in the Area of Seals, was packed with people.

The population of the Seal City reached frightening heights, a level that Ye Mo had never seen before. The scale of the city shocked him.

Li Tianqiong, Wenren Yixiang and the rest were equally overwhelmed.

Walking the street, Ye Mo could see many shops selling seals.

Seals only required True Energy to be activated – it didn't matter if one wasn't proficient in martial arts; they would still be able to utilize the seal.

“How about this,” Shangguan Clan's elder suggested. “We're here in the Seal Capital to buy what we need. Let's gather back here at the city entrance in seven days to return to the Area of Desolation. If anyone doesn't make it back in time, we'll go ahead without them.”

“No way, won't splitting up increase our chances to run into trouble?” Dongfang Xu said.

“We're all looking for different seals, anyway,” Wenren Dashan said. “Furthermore, moving together will inevitably raise the attention of others. How about we go in twos?”

“Ye Mo, what do you think?” Nangong Wushang asked.

“Uncle Nangong, since they've decided to work alone, then let's do so,” Ye Mo replied. “We'll gather back here at the city entrance in seven days.”

After the discussion was completed, the four families went their separate ways.

Ye Mo and Nangong Wushang went together.

“Ye Mo, Big Brother told me that you need to buy a spirit seed,” Nangong Wushang said. “These seeds are said to be made of millions of natural elements. They're extremely rare – I'm afraid it would cost a few tens of thousands of Transcendence Pills. I brought along 100,000 Transcendence Pills this time round, almost a tenth of our family's riches. Big Brother has instructed me to let you buy the spirit seed first, and use the remaining pills to buy other items.”

Ye Mo was rather touched. 100,000 Transcendence Pills was no small figure. Even for Wutian, losing a thousand of these pills would be a significant hit to his wealth, let alone 100,000 of them.

And Nangong Wudi had actually made letting Ye Mo buy his spirit seed a priority.

“Uncle Nangong, I have some Transcendence Pills myself – they should be enough,” Ye Mo said. “If I don't have enough pills, I'll borrow some from you. The spirit seed is of the utmost importance to me, and I have to get it, no matter what.”

Ye Mo was going to get his hands on the spirit seed no matter what. With the seed, Hong Lin would be able to help him rebirth a spirit embryo and revive Ling'er.

“Ye Mo, let's head to the Southern City's Seal Treasure Pavilion,” Nangong Wushang said. “I heard that there are frequent auctions there. Perhaps we'll be able to find a spirit seed there.”

Normal large-scale businesses would host auctions – that was the only way to raise the value of certain items to its maximum.

After that, the two of them managed to find the Seal Treasure Pavilion, after much effort spent asking around.

Ye Mo couldn't help but be wowed by the size of the Seal City. Even though they were walking quickly, by the time they reached their destination, they'd already spent half a day.

Ten days' worth of Treasure Pavilion couldn't match up to the Seal Treasure Pavilion. The Seal Treasure Pavilion was even more popular, huge groups of people moving in and out like waves – it was comparable to tens of streets' worth of Treasure Pavilion, such was its scale.

“Tsk tsk, it's good to come out and broaden your horizons,” Ye Mo commented, overwhelmed. “To be able to have such a huge Seal Treasure Pavilion, the forces behind this must be equally frightening.”
