Thinking about this, Xiao Mu couldn't help but slightly frown.

He hoped that during these months of him avoiding the Undying Evil Ancestor, Jiang Mu didn't blab anything about the Seal of the City God and Yama Seal that Lei gave him before his death to Xuan Mo.

After careful contemplation, Xiao Mu felt he might be worrying too much.

When Lei gave him the Seal of the City God and Yama Seal, Jin Fang and Jiang Mu had already escaped through the pathway. In strict terms, the only person that knew that Lei had given him the Seal of the City God and Yama Seal was the Undying Evil Ancestor.

Jin Fang and Jiang Mu didn't witness Lei giving him the Seal of the City God and Yama Seal; even if they guessed some parts, they could not be sure.

So, even if this secret was leaked, as long as he adamantly denies it, he should be alright.

The Seal of the City God and the Yama Seal were stored in his Earth Seal Space, and he had merged the Earth Seal with his Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, so even if someone wanted to search for them, they could not possibly find them on him.

With this in mind, Xiao Mu felt quite relieved.

As long as he didn't encounter the Undying Evil Ancestor or meet Xuan Mo alone, he should be safe.

Jiang Mu might have spilled the beans to Xuan Mo, so he couldn't go back to the Song Ruins anymore.

Since that's the case, he could only continue with his original plan and head to the Great Tang Ruins.

At this moment, Xiao Mu had enough energy fruits on him to advance to the perfected stage of the Fifth Realm, nearing the True Realm.

However, in order to break through from the Mortal Realm to the True Realm, apart from personal opportunity, it seems that something called the Breaking Reality Pill is also needed.

Xiao Mu didn't have this pill in his possession.

He had not found it in Jiang Mu's belongings either.

In that case, he might as well head to the Great Tang Ruins.

Moreover, the Undying Evil Ancestor was definitely roaming the world searching for him now. Heading to the Great Tang Ruins could provide him some protection.

Deciding this, Xiao Mu activated the Life-Death Step and headed in the direction of the Great Tang Ruins.

The Great Tang Ruins that Xiao Mu wanted to visit were situated in the Ancient Luo Capital, which wasn't too far from the Ancient Daliang City.

However, due to the expansion of the world, the distance between these two places was now almost ten thousand miles.

Utilizing the Life-Death Step, he cautiously journeyed towards the Ancient Luo Capital.

After several days, Xiao Mu finally arrived at the Ancient Luo Capital.

The Great Tang Ruins were located in the western part of the Ancient Luo Capital, a large underground imperial tomb that had mutated into a vast underground world.

"Is it Sir Xiao Mu?"

Xiao Mu had just reached the outskirts of the Great Tang Ruins when someone recognized him and called out his name.

Xiao Mu turned around and recognized the person immediately. Surprised, he said, "Elder Xu Yi, why are you here?"

The man turned out to be Xu Yi, a descendant of City God Xu, who was extraordinarily warm towards Xiao Mu. First thanking Xiao Mu, Xu Yi gratefully said, "Sir Xiao, thanks to you last time. If it hadn't been for you discovering the problem with my family and expelling the demonic creature from the Life and Death sect, my family might be decimated by now."

Xiao Mu smiled and said, "Elder, you're too kind. How are you doing now? Is your strength still dropping daily?"

Bai Luowang's usurpation of the God's throne, formed by the divine blood of Xu Family's ancestor City God Xu, had affected Xu Family's luck. As a result, Xu Yi, a descendant of City God Xu, was losing strength day by day.

Xu Yi sighed, "Since Sir Xiao expelled the demonic creature from the Life and Death sect, I've been much better. Not only did my strength stop declining every day as it was previously, it even slightly increased. Recently, I even broke through to the mid-stage of the Fifth Realm."

"Congratulations, elder, on advancing further in your power."

Xiao Mu promptly thanked Xu Yi and gave a polite bow.

"I'm still far from being compared to Sir Xiao." Xu Yi appeared rejuvenated and radiant; he smiled, modestly saying.

The strength of the mid-stage of the Fifth Realm indeed couldn't be compared to Xiao Mu. Nevertheless, breaking through from the early stage of the Fifth Realm to the mid-stage had certainly surprised and delighted Xu Yi for many days.

"By the way, why is the elder here at the Great Tang Ruins?"

Xiao Mu looked towards Xu Yi in puzzlement.

Xu Yi sighed, "Thanks to Sir Xiao reminding me last time, I realized that Exotic Technique Secret Manual could be obtained from the ancient ruins. Therefore, I'm here at the Great Tang Ruins to exchange for the Exotic Technique Secret Manual."

Xiao Mu nodded, "I see. Did the elder manage to obtain the Exotic Technique Secret Manual?"

Xu Yi said, "Not yet, I've been looking for a friend to help me exchange for the Exotic Technique Secret Manual."

He then sighed in resignation, "Ah! these Secret Manuals aren't something that just anyone can exchange. If it's not for this friend of mine, I probably wouldn't be able to even enter the Great Tang Ruins."

Xiao Mu chuckled.

Whether entering the Great Tang Ruins or the Song Ruins, it required an Identity Badge. Although Xu Yi was a descendant of City God Xu, he wasn't a member of the Alliance, and thus, he didn't have an Alliance Identity Badge.

Without the Identity Badge, entering the Great Tang Ruins wouldn't be easy, let alone utilizing Energy Fruits to exchange for Secret Manuals.

Xiao Mu nodded his understanding, "It is indeed much more convenient with a friend inside the ruins. Is the elder's friend here yet?"

"He'll be arriving shortly. Speaking of which, Sir Xiao, why are you at the Great Tang Ruins? If I remember correctly, you're from the Song Ruins, aren't you?" Xu Yi questioned Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu replied, "I want to exchange for a Breaking Reality Pill. Would the elder know where I could do so?"

Xu Yi shook his head, saying apologetically, "A Breaking Reality Pill? Is Sir Xiao about to break through into the True Realm?"

His eyes widened in disbelief as he glanced at Xiao Mu, but then he shook his head, "I don't know where to exchange for a Breaking Reality Pill. However, my friend will be here soon. I can ask him for you when he arrives."
