After the brief interlude of entering the city, Yi Tian left the small island and flew directly towards the Double Star Main Island. The outer defense was still about five to six hundred nautical miles away from the main island. At this moment, the number of cultivators flying in the air had greatly increased. Looking up at the sky, one could see a thin layer of light film covering a radius of five to six hundred nautical miles from the top of the tallest building in Heaven's Will City.
Needless to say, this was definitely the island protection array of Heaven's Will City. However, just by looking at it, it seemed that the amount of spirit stones required to maintain the array was quite high.
However, the effect was obvious to all. In his heart, he reckoned that if an ordinary Yuanying cultivator wanted to forcefully break through this protective array, it would be no different from a fool's dream.
Even a cultivator like him, who was proficient in array formations, would need to spend some time to find the nodes. If his cultivation reached the late stage of Yuanying, he would be able to win quite a bit.
After thinking for a while, he arrived at the city gate of Heaven's Will City. The cultivators on duty were all at the early stage of Yuanying. Yi Tian was also afraid of exposing himself, so he could only line up with the ordinary Jin Dan cultivators and enter the city in an orderly manner.
Fortunately, the Yuanying cultivator seemed to have only used his spiritual sense to scan him once, then nodded and let him pass. This also allowed him to slowly calm down. He couldn't help but think that everyone with the same cultivation level was actually unable to see through it. It seemed that the Yuanying cultivators here weren't that good either. He had really overestimated the cultivators of Heaven's Will City.
After entering the main city, he hurriedly found a shop and copied a map of Heaven's Will City. After receiving the map, he used his spiritual sense to scan it a few times and found that the Wonderful Treasure House he was looking for had a large branch in Heaven's Will City.
Following the map, he slowly walked onto the main street and began to rush towards the Wonderful Treasure House. From Yi Tian's point of view, the most direct way to return to the southern border was to fly over by himself. However, there were thousands of miles of sea border, and if he encountered any accidents or lost his way on the way, it would definitely not be a good thing.
The best strategy was to find Wonderful Treasure House's fleet and hitch a ride back. That might take some time, but it seemed to be the safest option for now.
The worst plan was to search for some long-distance teleportation arrays left behind by the Heavenly Cloud Pavilion on the islands. In fact, Yi Tian did not believe that the Heavenly Cloud Pavilion would be content to stay in a corner of the sea and not return to the mainland. The Heavenly Cloud Pavilion was one of the great sects of the Middle Ages, so it was inevitable that they would leave behind many hidden cards for their younger disciples to use.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but remember the matter of the Heavenly Cloud Pavilion. Whenever he had the chance, he would go and inquire about the situation of this sect.
After walking a few blocks, they found the Wonderful Treasure House branch in the city. As soon as they walked in, a shop assistant came up to greet them. Yi Tian didn't stand on ceremony. He took out the token that Li Shuilan had given him in Pill City. The servants only recognized the emblem on it, but they didn't know what it looked like.
However, they all knew that the person in front of them was not simple. They immediately invited Yi Tian to the second floor. After waiting for a while, his Divine Sense sensed that someone seemed to be walking towards him. It seemed that the person in question had arrived.
After entering, he discovered that it was Gu Baichuan, who he had met in Dong Ao. Although his eyes were spirited, his face was already showing signs of old age. After not seeing him for nearly 200 years, his strength hadn't improved much. It seemed that he was one of those cultivators who couldn't break through after the Jin Dan stage.
The two recognized each other as soon as they met. Gu Baichuan smiled and said, "I was wondering who it was. So it's the little friend from Chiyang School from back then. To be able to meet again in the sea is quite fate."
Yi Tian also said, "Fellow Gu, how have you been? It's really a coincidence to meet again after so many years."
After the two sat down, Gu Baichuan asked, "Brother Yi's cultivation progress is a bit slow. Back then, I was very optimistic about your cultivation. I didn't think that you'd be worse than my son, Gu Ming."
After hearing this, Yi Tian just laughed and said, "I've been wandering in a foreign land for so many years. In addition, I'm lacking in resources, and my cultivation hasn't kept up. How can I compare myself to Fellow Gu Ming?"
Gu Baichuan understood the meaning behind Yi Tian's words and changed the topic, "It's a blessing to meet an old friend in a foreign land. Why have you come to Wonderful Treasure House?"
"I want to ask if Wonderful Treasure House has a fleet returning to the Tian Lan Continent recently. If it's convenient, can I hitch a ride?" Yi Tian asked.
Gu Baichuan pondered for a moment and frowned. He seemed to have thought of something and replied, "Fellow Daoist, you've come at a bad time. My son, Gu Ming, led a fleet back to the Central Province five years ago."
Yi Tian's mind quickly went through the encounter with Wonderful Treasure House's fleet. He thought to himself, "Looking at Baichuan, the distance between the Ten Thousand Li Sea and the Tian Lan Continent is very far. Gu Ming only set off five years ago, so it must have taken a lot of time for the fleet to cross the Southern Sea."
He continued, "If that's the case, I can also wait for the next fleet. When the time comes, we'll return to the Tian Lan Continent together. I'll have to ask for Fellow Daoist Gu's help."
Gu Baichuan sighed and said, "Then Brother Yi will have to wait for a while. This Wonderful Treasure House's fleet takes about ten years to make a round trip. The next time the fleet returns to Heaven's Will City should be fifty years later. My humble house only has a fleet every sixty years. Is Fellow Daoist sure you want to wait?"
After calculating the time, Yi Tian felt that he could afford to wait. He could take advantage of this time to search for local specialties in the Ten Thousand Li Sea. Then he said, "In that case, I'll book a trip first. How about fifty years later, I'll return to the Tian Lan Continent with Fellow Daoist Gu's fleet?"
Seeing that Yi Tian was insistent, Gu Baichuan also nodded in agreement. He then took out a Communication Talisman and handed it to Yi Tian, "Fellow Daoist, please keep it well. As long as Wonderful Treasure House's fleet docks at the dock of Heaven's Will City, I will inform you."
Yi Tian was also tactful. He took out a storage bracelet and filled it with two hundred thousand Spirit Stones and handed it to Gu Baichuan as the cost of the journey. The other party didn't hold back and directly counted the number. After nodding in satisfaction, he put it away.
Next, the two of them also chatted. Yi Tian just happened to want to understand Heaven's Will City. Now that there was a person in front of him who knew everything, he poured out all the questions in his heart.
From Gu Baichuan's mouth, he learned that there were many merchants in Heaven's Will City. If he wanted to open a shop, he only needed to register with the city affairs office and pay the Spirit Stones. As for the products in the Ten Thousand Li Sea, although they weren't as rich as the continent, they were also unique.
His Wonderful Treasure House mainly operated these products as a source of profit. Many of them were sea beast corpses and mineral deposits purchased from the hands of those hunters.
Hearing this, Yi Tian also had some thoughts. He didn't care about these low and middle level materials, but there was no way to find high level materials. He had to sneak into the circle of high level cultivators before he could exchange for them.
Half a day later, Yi Tian, who had come out of the Wonderful Treasure House, directly walked towards the Cool Breeze Pavilion in the city. He heard Gu Baichuan mention that if he wanted to find high level treasures in Heaven's Will City, he could only go to the treasure store opened by the City Lord.
