The group of five flew in the air on four artifacts. Qi Haosi was in the lead, followed by He Xinsheng and the others.
Yi Tian said that he was not familiar with flying artifacts. Qi Haosi didn't say much and let him get on his flying sword.
There were two other people who were chosen from ordinary cultivators.
One was Dongfang Zhuo from Xuan Ling Sect, and the other was Sun Haojie from Chiyang School.
Yi Tian was also puzzled about the coincidence. However, He Xinsheng and Sun Haojie didn't have any special interactions along the way, so he couldn't find any clues.
Before they left, Qi Haosi had already explained the details of the mission.
On an island about 150 kilometers north of East Sea City, the defensive detection array that was originally set up had lost its effect.
The City Lord Mansion had already sent people to investigate and sweep the surrounding sea area. Now, Qi Haosi was sent to bring people to repair the defensive array.
In East Sea, level four sea beasts were equivalent to human Foundation Establishment cultivators. Level three sea beasts were equivalent to high-level Qi Refinement cultivators.
Level one and level two sea beasts were in the middle to low level. Qi Haosi hadn't seen any sea beasts above level four, so he didn't know where to start.
For this mission, Qi Haosi was afraid that he would have to refine artifacts and set up arrays. That was why he went to the Artifact Hall to look for help.
Yi Tian was happy. So this Chief Steward Qi was a formation expert. He had to take this opportunity to meet him.
He didn't know how the City Lord Mansion arranged the manpower. The four cultivators from Chiyang School and one from Xuan Ling Sect looked awkward.
However, Qi Haosi said that the City Lord Mansion didn't have too many people to arrange because they had been fighting frequently with the sea tribe.
Anyway, he would call whoever he saw who was free.
It took the five of them half a day to fly to the designated island, and the journey was quite smooth and uneventful.
Occasionally, they saw some fish jump out of the water, but they didn't see any sea tribe members.
After they got off the artifact, Captain Qi Haosi began to assign tasks.
Dongfang Zhuo and Sun Haojie were in charge of guarding and patrolling around the island.
If they encountered any unexpected situations, they would use their identity jade tokens to send a message to the three people on the island.
Yi Tian and He Xinsheng, on the other hand, obtained the diagrams.
According to the instructions, he immediately refined the array foundation components. Qi Haosi checked the damaged array formation.
This place was supposed to be the most advanced detection point. There were two formations set up on the island. One was a detection formation, and the other was a fog formation.
A few days ago, the City Lord's Mansion suddenly couldn't receive any probing information. They were afraid that there was a blind spot in the defensive island chain, which would give the Sea Tribe an opportunity to break into the inner sea.
Previously, they had already sent out two groups of people, led by Foundation Establishment cultivators, to sweep the nearby waters.
Looking at the diagram in their hands, Yi Tian and He Xinsheng didn't say much.
After the two of them divided the materials they needed equally, they began to work on their own.
Qi Haosi had dragged two coolies over. He was the one who had personally refined the array disc, and the extraction of the materials for the array foundation was all pushed to the two of them.
Fortunately, these things weren't important. Yi Tian busied himself for a while and spent two hours to prepare all the necessary parts and materials.
He Xinsheng, who was on the side, was actually half a quarter of an hour slower than Yi Tian. Now, looking at Yi Tian's expression, he felt that something was wrong.
Yi Tian could only pretend to be stupid. The next time he refined, he would deliberately slow down by half a beat.
After surveying the array formation on the island, Qi Haosi hurried back. When he saw that the two of them had also prepared the materials, he was delighted.
Then, without saying a word, he took out two array diagrams from his storage bag and began to refine according to the patterns on them.
Anyway, Yi Tian's matter was done. It was a good opportunity to learn from a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so he stood on the side and watched.
Qi Haosi didn't say anything. He let Yi Tian watch from the side. He would even refine a little slower in some details so that Yi Tian could see more carefully.
On the other hand, He Xinsheng didn't care so much and began to cultivate on his own. He was like a cultivation madman.
Half a day later, Qi Haosi finished refining both array discs. After checking that there were no defects, he cast a spell on the fog array disc.
A layer of white fog gradually appeared in a one-mile radius around the island. After a quarter of an hour, the fog became thicker and thicker. It only stopped spreading after covering an area of nearly ten miles.
The two people in charge of guarding the island also hurriedly came down to meet up. With such a large fog without guidance, even their own people would get lost.
Then, they saw Qi Haosi take out another peeping array disc. After injecting spiritual power into it, he placed it under the previous one.
Yi Tian saw a flash of white light, and nothing else happened. He couldn't help but look at Qi Haosi.
After a slight smile, he took out a magic tool and walked up.
He didn't forget to wave at Yi Tian, meaning that the matter was done and it was time to leave.
Although he didn't know why, Yi Tian didn't ask much. He would talk about it when he reached Donghai City.
After jumping on the magic tool, the five of them hurriedly rushed to another point.
Two hours later, the four of them were repairing on another island a hundred miles away from the mission location.
On the way back, Qi Haosi received a message saying that there was another place that needed to be dealt with urgently.
Ignoring the thoughts of his team members, he led them directly to the location after instructing them.
Along the way, Yi Tian saw that He Xinsheng and Dongfang Zhuo were fine, but they looked unhappy.
On the contrary, Sun Haojie whispered from time to time, hoping that they wouldn't encounter any sea beasts.
Since they were familiar with it, after arriving at the location, they followed the old rules. Two people were on guard, and three people were responsible for repairing the array.
This time, Yi Tian learned his lesson and was a little slower when refining the materials. He took 15 minutes longer than the first time.
After that, he looked at He Xinsheng's face and raised his eyebrows, revealing a proud expression.
It seemed that this He Xinsheng was also a narrow-minded person. He was secretly competing with Yi Tian.
Perhaps he thought that it was because flying on the magic tool consumed spiritual power, so Yi Tian took the initiative.
The second time he refined it, his profound skill was fully displayed.
There was no need to tangle with him. In any case, in Yi Tian's eyes, there was at least a 70% chance that this He Xinsheng was a spy from the White Bone Gate.
However, he didn't have any evidence yet, so he could only put it aside for now. As long as he carefully observed him, he wasn't afraid that he wouldn't give himself away.
This time, Qi Haosi didn't delay any longer. The original mission for the day had been completed.
Now that there was an extra matter, staying here for a moment longer would be more dangerous.
He didn't know if the East Sea City's patrol team had completely swept through this area, so Qi Haosi sped up his movements. In less than two hours, he had finished setting up the two formation discs.
After the five of them discussed on the island, they hurriedly flew on their magic tools, trying to rush back to the East Sea City before sunset.
Although cultivators didn't care about day or night, those sea beasts liked to separate in the evening. The later they delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be for them.
After the four magic tools flew in the air for an hour, they suddenly saw a three-foot-tall wave in front of them. About ten sea beasts were faintly discernible in the waves.
Qi Haosi's face sank. It seemed that they were in trouble. There was at least a rank four sea beast leading this formation.
He might not be able to win against a rank four sea beast with his Foundation Establishment cultivation, let alone a group of rank three sea beasts.
He turned around and told everyone to fly as high as possible. If there were any unfavorable situations, they would find their own way back to the East Sea City.
He also turned around and signaled Yi Tian to fly on his own magic tool. He would try his best to stall for time for them.
He obviously thought that Yi Tian was a burden, but he didn't want to abandon his teammates like this.
Without further ado, Yi Tian took out his own flywheel. After a burst of spirit qi, he stood firmly on it.
The five of them began to try to fly around the waves in front of them. Unexpectedly, the waves seemed to have grown eyes and stared at the five of them.
Although they chased for a while on the sea, the distance was getting closer and closer. It was obvious that the leading sea beast wanted to catch them all in one go.
The situation was getting more and more critical. In another 15 minutes, they would be caught up.
At this moment, Sun Haojie shouted to Qi Haosi, "Why don't we split up now? It's better than being caught all at once."
The other two nodded. Qi Haosi turned around to look at Yi Tian. Seeing that he agreed, he waved his right hand and said, "See you in the East Sea City." Then, he sped up and flew forward.
The remaining four people didn't waste any time. Escaping was more important, so they all sped off in different directions.
Yi Tian looked at them and didn't say much. At this point, anyone would want to save their own lives first.
As the saying went, "Dying is better than dying." The spirit qi under his feet suddenly poured into the flywheel, and he instantly sped up toward the inland sea on the other side.
He actually flew faster than the other three. This speed was only a little slower than Qi Haosi's flying sword.
Two hours later, Yi Tian was meditating and resting on a small island. There were no bloodstains on his body.
On the other hand, there were two corpses of sea beasts lying on the beach. They looked completely dead.
The five-man team was being chased by a group of sea beasts. After they split up and escaped, everyone used their full strength, afraid that they would be bitten to death by the sea beasts behind them.
They didn't expect that this group of sea beasts would split up. A few third-rank sea beasts stepped on the three-meter-tall waves and split up to chase after the four of them.
The fourth-rank sea beast in the lead bit down on Qi Haosi, who was flying in front of it. Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals.
After being chased by the two sea beasts for more than an hour, Yi Tian was also anxious.
There was nowhere to land in the vast sea. If they fought in the water, his fire-type magic was obviously at a disadvantage.
Moreover, he relied on his magic tool to fly in the air and couldn't use it to attack directly. Yi Tian wasn't confident that he could quickly end the battle with his magic tool.
Fortunately, he saw a small island in front of him, so he lowered his magic tool and stopped on the beach.
Then, he took out a spirit stone to recover his spirit qi. When he turned around, he saw the two sea beasts chasing after him.
Yi Tian didn't hold back. He poured the spirit qi in his hand into the flywheel and ignited it. When they came ashore, he pointed with his right hand and controlled the flywheel to attack them.
In the blink of an eye, the leading fish-headed monster was split in half. There was even a smell of grilled fish coming from the charred wound.
On the other hand, his left hand wasn't idle. The Chain Fireball in his hand was already ready. He threw it at the bald crab shell monster's face.
Four of the five fireballs hit the target, and the crab shell monster's head was gone. The remaining corpse fell weakly on the beach.
After recovering for a while, Yi Tian felt that the spirit qi in his dantian was full. He got up and ran to the beach to check on the corpses.
Although the sea beasts were all killed, he heard that these sea beasts' bodies were refining materials.
Even if he brought them back to the East Sea City's refining shop, there would be people fighting to buy them. Moreover, he was a refining master and would definitely have a use for them.
After looking around, Yi Tian put the two corpses into his storage bag and prepared to deal with them later.
Unexpectedly, he saw a green light flash in the night sky at this time. It seemed like someone was flying here.
Yi Tian had no choice but to deal with the situation first and then find a hidden place to hide.
