Chapter 707: Chapter 0449: Someone is Following_2 Chapter 707: Chapter 0449: Someone is Following_2 The few Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators all had heated stares, some eyed the flying sailing ship in front of them with envy, while others admired that Liang Yuqi even possessed a Storage Ring that could hold such a large ship. Only Qi Tian seemed rather calm.

Liang Yuqi flew onto the flying sailing ship, followed closely by Wan Xiaolan, who also boarded the flying sailing ship. This scene made Qi Tian and others shudder. It was incredible enough that Liang Yuqi, a cultivator at the Gold Core Stage Level 6, was assigned to collect Stone Milk Liquid. Now, with Wan Xiaolan joined in, although she was only at the First Level of Gold Core Realm, she was nonetheless a strong player in her own right, making her have more capacity than others in the Wanjie City. Were such formidable figures tagging along not just for Stone Milk Liquid and immersion in the Stone Milk Pool, was there something else afoot, likely to be dangerous?

Neither Wan Xiaolan nor Liang Yuqi had any intentions of explaining to Qi Tian and the others. Immersion in diluted Stone Milk wasn’t a treatment that anyone could enjoy; such an opportunity wouldn’t just be given to Qi Tian and the others for free. They were not only supposed to work but also bear a certain risk. However, whether that risk was big or small would depend on their luck.

The flying sailing ship with Qi Tian and others onboard left Wanjie City and headed directly for the southwest.

Wan Xiaolan walked over to Liang Yuqi, and Liang Yuqi asked, “How’s the situation?”

Wan Xiaolan replied, “The Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators that I’ve chosen are all relatively stable emotions-wise and show no abnormalities. However, Elder Liang, I just used the Thousand Miles Mirror on the flying sailing ship to watch the surroundings, and I alone found three potential flying sailing ships that seem to be following us.”

“Three? These people are really persistent in their wrong ways. Do they think they can find the location of the Stone Milk Pool just by tracking us? They’re incredible naive. Let’s ignore them for now and maintain a steady speed. Once we reach Fog Lake, we’ll speed up.” A cool smirk surfaced at the corner of Liang Yuqi’s mouth.

Wan Xiaolan couldn’t help but mourn for the three flying sailing ships trailing them. They chose the wrong person to follow. Tracking Liang Yuqi was just asking for trouble.

About two hours later, the flying sailing ship carrying Qi Tian and the others arrived in a mountain range. The ship did not ascend to a height above the peaks, but rather maintained its altitude at the middle of the mountainside and advanced at a steady pace.

It wasn’t long before Qi Tian understood why the flying sailing ship maintained this altitude. As he stood on the deck and looked ahead, he could see that the mountains in front of him were wrapped in dense fog, with the positions above the mountainside of the mountains disappearing into the fog, and even the positions below the mountainside gradually becoming blurred. If one wasn’t careful here, the flying sailing ship might crash into the mountain, the consequences of which were unpredictable.

The flying sailing ship, carrying Liang Yuqi, didn’t stop here but plunged in headlong. At first, they could barely see the surrounding mountains, but later, they couldn’t even see the mountain peaks in the dense fog. Qi Tian attempted to release his Divine Sense, only to discover that the dense fog outside the flying sailing ship seemed to hinder its deployment, which faced extreme repression once it entered, no longer being able to proceed after leaving the ship’s form in a very short distance. Most relievingly for Qi Tian, the Heavenly Dao Engine did not get affected in this environment and worked as intended. Yet most surprisingly he found out, that the dense fog enveloping everything around them was not just ordinary unbreathable vapor, but was faintly filled with energy. If all this fog were to be absorbed, he didn’t dare to imagine the extent of fuel it would provide for the Heavenly Dao Engine.

Qi Tian didn’t attempt to absorb this fog. With the two Gold Core Stage powerhouses, Wan Xiaolan and Liang Yuqi, onboard the same ship, any sudden behavior on his part might cause considerable trouble for him. So, it’s better not to make such a meaningless attempt.

The two Gold Core Stage powerhouses, Liang Yuqi and Wan Xiaolan, always stayed on the deck of the flying sailing ship with Qi Tian and the others. Liang Yuqi mainly stood at the bow of the ship, while Wan Xiaolan stayed at the stern, with neither of them paying too much attention to Qi Tian and the others.

It was boring for Qi Tian to stay on the bridge deck. After thinking for a while, he walked over to Wan Xiaolan and asked, “Senior, is there anything you need me to do?”

Wan Xiaolan looked slightly surprised as he glanced at Qi Tian, apparently not expecting Qi Tian to take the initiative to seek his assistance. After some thought, he said, “Can you use the Thousand Miles Mirror? If you can, give it a try.”

Qi Tian asked, “Could the Thousand Miles Mirror be used with all this fog?”

Wan Xiaolan replied, “Whether or not it can be used, why not give it a try yourself?”

With that, Wan Xiaolan handed Qi Tian an object resembling a single-tubed telescope, then proceeded to explain how to use it.

Telescopes on earth are made utilizing optical principles. This Thousand Miles Mirror that Wan Xiaolan gave to Qi Tian likewise operated on optical principles. However, this was but one of many fundamental principles it used. Apart from that, several techniques only available to cultivators were also incorporated into this small Thousand Miles Mirror, which allowed one to vaguely see miles away despite thick fog.

“This is truly astonishing.” Qi Tian couldn’t help but marvel with admiration.

“Of course it is,” Wan Xiaolan said with no small amount of pride, “This is the product of Refining Master Huang Feixu. Master Huang is an incredibly capable individual, always full of ingenious ideas and capable of accomplishing what others can’t. This Thousand Miles Mirror is one of his unique masterpieces. It’s not something anyone can just buy. In order to acquire a few of these mirrors, our Wanjie Commerce spent eight million low-grade spirit stones just to book a meeting with Master Huang. Finally, Huang Feixu, moved by the face of our Wanjie Commerce’s boss, agreed to sell us two Thousand Miles Mirrors for the price of ten million low-grade spirit stones each.”

Qi Tian inhaled sharply, remarking, “This Master Huang certainly has quite the reputation.”

“Indeed, Wanjie City has several millions of cultivators, but Master Huang is definitely among the top-notch figures. He is not merely a Refining Master. But also a true Nascent Soul Stage Master. Can you believe it?” Wan Xiaolan commented with a touch of awe.

“A Nascent Soul Stage Master? Well, that explains it.” Learning that Master Huang Feixu was a Nascent Soul Stage Master, Qi Tian could not help but feel a tinge of respect. He now understood how difficult it was to cultivate to the Nascent Soul Stage. For Master Huang to have reached the Nascent Soul Stage and also earned the title of a Refining Master, he was certainly no ordinary individual.

Wan Xiaolan patted Qi Tian on the shoulder, saying, “Didn’t you volunteer for this? Then use Master Huang’s Thousand Miles Mirror conscientiously. If you spot anyone following us, tell me immediately, understand?”

Qi Tian nodded repeatedly. Being tracked by other cultivators in such a visually obstructive environment was far from a cause for celebration. Who could guarantee that there wasn’t someone more formidable than Liang Yuqi among those following them? If such a figure appeared and proved harmful to their party, even possessing the Heavenly Dao Engine, despite its capability to detect Spirit Qi in the surroundings, might not ensure an escape.

The best course of action was to avoid such encounters.

That was Qi Tian’s thinking, though it was merely a hope. He did not possess the capability to make his wishes come true with just his words. For now, he could only hold onto the Thousand Miles Mirror and attentively watch their tail.
