The news that there was a treasure in the Blackpool Swamp spread like wildfire. However, the Jin Dan and Foundation Establishment cultivators all knew that it was just the aftermath of a demon beast's tribulation. Moreover, it was a high-level demon beast's tribulation. Thus, everyone tacitly chose to remain silent.
Demon beasts like this would usually head to the Hundred Thousand Mountains to live after their tribulation. It was already rare for a Level 4 demon beast to appear in the Blackpool Swamp, so there was no need to explore it.
On the contrary, a few low-level cultivators appeared in groups near the Blackpool Swamp, wanting to explore it. However, the Level 4 demon beasts in the swamp wouldn't let them have their way. Thus, a new round of hunting and counter-hunting began.
At the same time, Yi Tian, the culprit, was flying towards River Wan Village alone. He still had two Familiar Beast Pouches on his waist. Due to Fat Dog's request, he didn't want to be alone. Helplessly, he could only put Fat Dog and Qing Yu together.
However, Fat Dog's body had grown bigger, almost as big as the Scarlet Flame Stallion. Thus, the Familiar Beast Pouch seemed much smaller.
Moreover, it was troublesome to carry a Level 6 Soul Pet in a Level 5 Familiar Beast Pouch. Yi Tian planned to find some good materials to refine a large Familiar Beast Pouch when he had the chance.
After flying over the mountains, he vaguely remembered the terrain of the past. However, after three hundred years, River Wan County had already expanded to become River Wan City. Yi Tian found a place to rest outside the city and leisurely strolled along the road in front of the city gate.
In the past three hundred years, the small county that originally had a radius of over twenty miles was now surrounded by mountains and rivers. The Evergreen River's water was used as a moat, creating a city with a radius of thirty miles.
Although the inner city was still built on the foundation of the original River Wan County, the expansion of the outer city was quite impressive. It was as if it had become an important stronghold.
Walking on the streets of River Wan City, Yi Tian quickly found the location of the Four Seas Casino according to his memory. It was still a casino, but the banner above had changed. When he raised his head, he saw the words "Three Rivers Casino."
After inquiring, he found out that the White Horse Gang had long since ceased to exist, and the surrounding residents did not know that such a Jianghu sect once existed.
However, some people mentioned that the 'Five Tigers Golden Saber Sect' was the number one sect in River Bend City. In the north of the city, there was also the 'Green Destiny Sword Sect', whose strength was also not bad. Thirty percent of the city's businesses were divided between these two sects.
Yi Tian only curled his lips and smiled helplessly at this. The world was always repeating the same things, just like the White Horse Gang and the Green Bamboo Sect in the past. Although time had passed, the characteristics of the Master of Hell had been completely preserved.
After leaving River Bend City, Yi Tian wasn't in a hurry. He followed the path he had taken to enter the city years ago and headed towards River Bend Village. Although he said he was walking, his Yuanying cultivation allowed him to walk as fast as flying. He only took an hour to cover the distance of a few dozen li.
When he returned to River Bend Village, he was shocked to find that there were still descendants of the Yi family left behind. They were still one of the biggest families in the village. Under the cover of the night, Yi Tian slowly made his way back to his original home. He found that there were already more than ten houses built with green bricks and red tiles.
At this moment, the entire Yi family's elders were sitting behind the guest hall in the middle of the nine halls, as if waiting for something. The servants were walking back and forth in the room as if they were very busy. When he looked inside, he saw a few midwives walking into the Patriarch's room.
A group of elders were happily discussing something when they suddenly heard a loud cry from the back hall. They all went forward to congratulate the Patriarch in the middle.
A deep voice said, "After seeing the child, immediately go to the ancestral hall to pay respects to the ancestors." Everyone nodded in agreement, "Patriarch is right, we have to thank the ancestors for their blessings and ensure the safety of the entire Yi family."
After everyone left, Yi Tian's figure slowly appeared in the main hall before disappearing again. Then, in the inner hall, a green jade pendant appeared around the newborn's neck.
After leaving the Yi family courtyard, Yi Tian set his sights on the heart of Yi Hua Mountain. His fate all those years ago began here. He never had the chance to go back and check it out but this time, he wanted to take the opportunity to go take a look.
The situation in the mountain was as usual, especially at midnight when the cold air rose and the entire forest was wet. Using his memory, he found the large locust tree from back then. The hole in the tree was filled with rocks that he had buried and was now overgrown with weeds.
He extended his right hand and used the Telekinesis Technique to clear away the stones in the tree hole one by one, and found the stone door. Yi Tian opened the stone door and walked in slowly. He searched the place where the two skeletons were and made sure that he did not miss anything.
Back then, he had the guts to barge into the cave abode by mistake. Now, it seemed that the newborn calf was not afraid of the tiger. Usually, these cave abodes would have some defensive restrictions. Once someone barged in by mistake, they would immediately defend themselves and attack.
Sitting on the stone futon, Yi Tian closed his eyes and pondered. He recalled how he had found the Li Fire Sect's Lin Yi and Wu Zhen here years ago. Back then, he was immature and knew too little about the cultivation world. According to his current experience, Lin Yi's cultivation level was definitely much higher than Wu Zhen's.
It was just like his Chiyang School. An outer sect disciple trying to sneak up on an inner sect disciple was no different from a fool's dream. Even if he used poison, it would be very difficult to succeed.
As for the Li Fire Sect, those who could enter the inner sect were Jin Dan realm disciples. For a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator to sneak up on a Jin Dan realm cultivator was like throwing an egg against a rock.
However, Wu Zhen had succeeded. Could it be that Lin Yi was seriously injured back then, which gave him the opportunity to attack?
He used his hand to touch the words he had scratched on the stone futon. Xuan Ling Mountain, Xuan Yang Sect, Ice Soul Cavern's bottom were still there. Yi Tian's eyes immediately lit up. He had formed an immortal fate because he wanted to contribute to the revival of the Xuan Yang Sect and the Li Fire Sect.
His return to Dong Ao was for this matter. The Iron Sword Gate and the Xuan Ling Sect had taken advantage of the fall of their Ancestral Master to chase their descendants to the Crimson Flame Hills. This debt had to be settled properly.
Now that this matter had happened a thousand years ago, only the three sect's Patriarchs could remember it. If he wanted to unify the Xuan Yang Sect without bloodshed, he had to find a way through the three sect's Patriarchs.
With them stepping forward, many of the sect's disciples would have no choice but to submit. Even the new Yuanying cultivators would not dare to act rashly.
Just like that, Yi Tian carefully pondered about the path he would take next. Half a day later, the figure sitting cross-legged on the stone praying mat slowly faded until it completely disappeared.
Following that, the rocks outside the tree hole automatically rolled into the hole until the roots of the locust tree were completely buried.
