He became the True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws starting from Liaozhai.

"So you didn't have a goal either!" Liu Cheng had a knowing look on his face. It seemed that Xu Yi had decided to leave on short notice, and he didn't know much about this world.

"In that case, why don't you go to... Liucheng?" Liu Cheng pondered for a while and thought of a large city. Liucheng was actually the city that rose to power from Lion City. Liu Cheng's rise to power was actually due to people from here. The higher level of Wanbaoge was also here. If Xu Yi went here, the two of them might actually meet again in the future.

However, Liucheng is extremely far from Lion City. Even at his peak Foundation Establishment speed, it would take him a month to reach Liucheng.

It's just unknown how long it will take Xu Yi. In Liu Cheng's opinion, Xu Yi's movement technique was already very fast when he was in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, not to mention that he has now advanced to the half-step Golden Core stage. With Xu Yi's talent, Liu Cheng does not believe that he has only improved his cultivation level. If his spells have not improved, it is impossible for Xu Yi to obtain the Blood Lotus in the Blood Lotus Secret Realm.

At least Liu Cheng didn't believe that someone with cultivation could obtain a treasure like the Blood Lotus.

When Xu Yi was telling Liu Cheng about his experiences in the secret realm, he also mentioned that he had fought against four cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Perfection and Half-Step Golden Core levels all by himself. If Xu Yi had only had those few spells, he probably would have been exhausted to death long ago.

Liu Cheng had to admit that Xu Yi's magic was indeed very powerful when they fought. According to him, this magic was very effective in restraining those cultivators who practiced evil magic. Xu Yi killed some of those who practiced evil magic, which made sense.

However, Liu Cheng still believed that Xu Yi had indeed successfully mastered many powerful cultivation techniques and had also made great progress in controlling his spiritual energy.

"Liu Cheng?" Xu Yi was puzzled when he heard the name. It sounded too similar to Liu Cheng, almost like a homophone.

"Yes, Liucheng." Liu Cheng said with a smile. The city's name was exactly the same as his, and it was indeed called that.

"If you want to go, I can give you a map of the city; at your pace, you should get there quickly."

"With a Nascent Soul cultivator in charge, Liucheng is undoubtedly a great city." A hint of longing appeared in Liu Cheng's eyes. He had wanted to go to this city for a long time, but his strength was simply not enough to settle down and build a career here.

You should know that the city lord is a True Monarch level cultivator, not to mention the people working under him. They are all Golden Core stage cultivators, Sword Dao Grandmasters, and Undying Realm cultivators. Only these people are qualified to settle down and build a career in Willow City.

Once the three major systems reach this stage, they will all be called True Monarchs. From this realm onwards, all cultivators begin to cultivate the laws, and the concepts of spiritual energy and blood energy almost disappear. They all have the same cultivation system. Moreover, at this realm, their need for spiritual energy is not that great.

This is the level of true strength. It means being able to leave this city at any time and become a high-ranking member of any sect. This is true strength, and you will be respected wherever you go.

"True Lord..." The Nascent Soul stage is called True Lord, but Xu Yi doesn't know much about the others. He's not even at the Golden Core stage, and he hasn't even figured out the intricacies of the Golden Core stage, let alone understand things at the True Lord level.

"Of course, Manager Liu, thank you for your help!" Xu Yi nodded. Since there was a recommendation, there was no need to waste his own experience searching. Finding a place to develop his business was really troublesome.

Xu Yi had no idea how strong a True Monarch-level cultivator was, or what their supernatural abilities were. However, he was very curious about this True Monarch.

The Golden Core stage has already begun to comprehend the laws, so to what extent can a True Monarch comprehend the power of the laws?

This was Xu Yi's question, and he really wanted to figure it out.

Before that, Xu Yi still needs to advance to the Golden Core stage; that's his current task.

It's also a small goal I set for myself.

Soon, Liu Cheng brought Xu Yi the pointer of Liucheng. This pointer was a transparent sphere about the size of a fist, inside which was a miniature willow tree with branches that moved automatically without wind.

"This is the compass for Liucheng," Liu Cheng said with a smile. The compass was actually quite unique in design. When Liu Cheng took it out, he already knew that Xu Yi would not know how to read it.

"Oh? Such a peculiar design." Xu Yi exclaimed. This pointer from Liucheng was the strangest pointer he had ever seen. It looked really peculiar.

"Manager Liu, how do you tell the direction with this pointer?" Xu Yi was very approachable. Although Xu Yi's cultivation level had far surpassed Liu Cheng's, Xu Yi's tone and demeanor were completely as if he were a junior. In front of Liu Cheng, he was still the same as when they first met, in terms of both tone and other aspects.

Liu Cheng felt that Xu Yi was very sincere, a genuine person who treated everyone equally. Cultivation level didn't seem to be a very important thing to him.

Only when a person's character is truly worthy of Xu Yi's respect can he earn that respect; perhaps that is what makes a true cultivator.

Not only has one's cultivation level reached a certain point, but one's mindset has also reached a certain point; this is what makes a true cultivator.

Liu Cheng sighed, saying that he admired people like Xu Yi. In his opinion, it would be a real good thing if there were more people like Xu Yi in the cultivation world. The cultivation world needs more people like Xu Yi.

But now, Liu Cheng couldn't really comment on anything. He didn't have much of an opinion about the cultivation world. He had no power to change anything. He just wanted to do his job well, do what he needed to do every day, and take good care of all his friends, especially the bodyguards under his command, who all depended on him for their livelihood.

They absolutely cannot be treated unfairly.

These are people who have worked with him for a long time and are already veterans. Naturally, they cannot be treated unfairly. Otherwise, if the old man's heart is chilled, then who will be willing to risk their lives for him? This is a job that requires risking one's life. If a bodyguard does not have the awareness that he will die every time he escorts a shipment, then even if he encounters a robbery, he will not have much courage to resist.

He would be afraid, and only by being prepared to die could he truly achieve full vigilance.

"Hehe, this pointer can only be made in a great city where a True Lord is stationed. It is an exclusive symbol of the great city," Liu Cheng explained, as he was giving Xu Yipu some knowledge.

He was worried that Xu Yi might not recognize the item while traveling, which could lead to some unexpected problems. However, he was, after all, a bodyguard from Lion City, and he couldn't afford to bring shame to Lion City.

"I never thought so!" Xu Yi was very surprised. He was actually shocked. He didn't expect that the pointer of the Great City could be made so exquisitely. The pointer looks really good. In Xu Yi's opinion, collecting pointers is actually a very fun thing.

If given the chance, Xu Yi wanted to collect all the pointers to major cities, as a keepsake.

In smaller cities like Lion City, all the pointers are uniformly transparent, very simple, and without any unique features, unless there are inscriptions on the pointers. Each pointer has the name of the current city engraved on it.

Each compass pointer can remain valid for more than ten years. After ten years, the pointer will gradually become unreliable. At this time, you will need to buy a new compass pointer. Alternatively, if Xu Yi has spirit stones, he can buy a permanent compass pointer, although the price is relatively expensive. However, what he will get is a compass pointer that can always guide him. It is an essential compass pointer for travelers on long voyages. Anyone who is going on a long journey will buy one because they need to guide themselves. It is a must-have.

Moreover, going on a long journey is no joke. A Foundation Establishment cultivator can easily spend a year or even ten years in seclusion. If it is seclusion, it is basically measured in years. Ten years is indeed too short. Therefore, cultivators who travel long distances usually buy their own permanent compass to prevent themselves from not being able to find their way back home after going out. That would be really embarrassing.

This is because such a thing really happened, and Liu Cheng wasn't exaggerating.

"You can use this pointer to determine the direction the willow leaves are blowing in the wind. As long as you pour your magic power into this pointer, it will generate a wind force that will quickly point you in the right direction. The direction the willow branches are pointing is the direction to Willow City!" Liu Cheng slowly explained the function of the pointer. Actually, this pointer is quite simple to use. This is not a permanent pointer. Permanent pointers are relatively expensive, but it's not that Liu Cheng is unwilling to use this permanent one for Xu Yi.

Instead, Liu Cheng felt that this was meaningless and unnecessary. If Xu Yi could stay in Liucheng, and if Xu Yi could stay with Liu Cheng permanently, he would definitely give the permanent pointer to Xu Yi to use. Since Xu Yi had decided to settle down here, Liu Cheng would definitely not be polite to Xu Yi. He would definitely share any good things with Xu Yi.

"Alright! In that case, thank you very much, Manager Liu!" Xu Yi said, as the pointer was quite useful to him.

Now that he had the pointer, Xu Yi felt there was no need to stay any longer; it was time to leave.

"Manager Liu, I...I have to go." Xu Yi didn't know how to say goodbye. This lesson was always difficult for Xu Yi; he didn't even know how to start the conversation.

"Yes, I know, Xiao Xu. I hope to see you in Liucheng sometime!" Liu Cheng smiled, then suddenly remembered something: "You should say goodbye to your friends!"

"Friends?" Xu Yi was clearly taken aback. Since arriving in Lion City, he hadn't actually met or known many people.

"Hmm? That's true. You haven't been in Singapore for very long, so I'll be the only one here to see you off." After saying this, Liu Cheng felt a little sad for Xu Yi. It was really unsettling to leave a place and only have one person to see you off.

He felt somewhat uncomfortable for Xu Yi, but what he didn't know was that Xu Yi didn't care about these things at all. He didn't want to leave much of his emotions in this world.

Once some of the truths have been revealed, there's nothing else to hold onto. Xu Yi only wants to understand the truth about Tianqing.

The sky has fallen, the world has been rebuilt, but Xu Yi still has no clue what happened. He can only improve his cultivation step by step and reach a more powerful stage, hoping to uncover some of the truth from back then.

This was Xu Yi's way of comforting himself. He felt that only by improving his cultivation level would he be qualified to know more information.

For example, when his cultivation level had not yet reached the Qi Refining stage, he had no idea what the so-called "Great Serpent," or Serpent God, was.

Even now, he still doesn't know what it is.

However, Xu Yi already had some understanding of the Snake God, and there were records in the Wanbao Pavilion that this snake was probably a Nascent Soul Realm expert.

After all, he was a wild god, and he didn't receive much incense offering. He only had the opportunity to cause trouble in the local area at that time. On the grand stage of the Southern Region, he, a wild god, couldn't really make any waves.

Although the Southern Region is the weakest of the five major regions, it still has many powerful individuals. However, their numbers are relatively small compared to other major regions.

And so, Liu Cheng led Xu Yi all the way to the city gate.

"Little Xu, I didn't greet you when you came, but today I'm seeing you off as you leave. Little Xu, may we meet again someday!"

Liu Cheng appeared quite composed. People come and go, partings and reunions—he had experienced too much of this before. However, he still felt somewhat uncomfortable. People like Xu Yi were rare; at least, this was the first time Liu Cheng had met one. He also liked Xu Yi's personality; it was easy for people to develop a liking for him.

It's a pity, but hopefully we'll meet again someday!

Liu Cheng sighed, and soon after, he left.

Never looking back.

Seeing this, Xu Yi also left. He poured his magic into the pointer, and just as Liu Cheng had said, an unnamed wind soon blew through the pointer, causing the willow branches to sway.

Soon, Liu Zhi was in position. Xu Yi pointed out a direction, and after seeing it, Xu Yi transformed into a streak of light and flew quickly in the direction indicated by the pointer.

Xu Yi encountered no unexpected events along the way, and things were quite peaceful. Soon, in just ten days, Xu Yi had already reached his destination.

This great city is very prosperous. Just looking at its city gates, it's comparable to seven or eight Lion City.

This is just the facade; it's very impressive.

This place is full of Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, and Qi Refining stage cultivators are even more numerous.
