On Tiger's Fury River, a search-and-rescue team composed of twelve speedboats, fishing boats, salvage vessels, submersibles, and armored airships was moving downstream, searching for any trace of Meng Chao.
The official search had already come to an end.
The runoff of the Crimson Dragon River and Tiger's Fury River was simply too great, their tributaries too numerous, and the hydrological environment beneath the rivers far too complex.

But his closest relatives and friends still refused to give up. At any cost, they organized private search-and-rescue teams again and again, hoping to find even the slightest clue.
Even knowing which direction Meng Chao had gone would have been enough.
But this was supposed to be the final private search.

This made the Planetary Magnetic Field here extraordinarily chaotic, with Ling Magnetic Interference as severe as in the depths of the Mist Hidden Forbidden Zone.
Even Peak Heaven Realm experts could have their
