The air in Vast Sea City was filled with the unique salty scent of the Great Sea. After all, it was the first time the Shrek Six Monsters had seen the Great Sea, and they unconsciously wandered around for a while.

Due to the border conflict, the Star Luo Empire has entered a state of war preparedness. As a prince, Dai Mubai should tighten his belt and save funds for war preparations at this time.

Therefore, his monthly salary was significantly reduced. Furthermore, Dai Mubai didn't have a habit of saving money, resulting in the Shrek Six Monsters living a very frugal life during this trip.

If Tai Tan hadn't embezzled several thousand Gold Soul Coin from the disciples of the Strength Clan, they wouldn't even have had the funds to rent a ship, let alone purchase equipment for navigation.

After spending two days in Vast Sea City, the Shrek Six Monsters had a general understanding of the situation within the city.

First, Vast Sea City is far from the center of the continent, and the Two Great Empires do not attach much importance to Sea Transport.

For thousands of years since the establishment of the Two Great Empires, countless border wars have taken place, but the flames of war have never reached Vast Sea City.

In the eyes of mainland Soul Master, the Sea Spirit Master in Vast Sea City are the lowest of the low, so the various forces on the continent have rarely paid attention to this place, let alone made any deployments there.

Inadvertently, this avoided the risk of Tang San and his group being wanted by the police.

But don't forget, every city in the Douluo Continent has Spirit Hall, and Vast Sea City is no exception.

Tang San was like Haozi seeing a cat when facing the Spirit Hall Spirit Hall; he avoided it like the plague and dared not investigate its situation.

However, according to Zhu Zhuqing's understanding, the Spirit Hall here is different from that on the mainland.

The Spirit Hall here does not participate in the city's management and planning; they are only responsible for awakening Martial Soul for eligible children within the city. When necessary, they will participate in some law enforcement work at the invitation of the City Lord Mansion.

This was the original appearance of the Spirit Hall.

Upon hearing this, Tang San couldn't help but sneer, "If all the Spirit Hall on the entire continent were like this, who could shake them?"

Tailong chimed in, "Heh, Bibi Dong is just being greedy. Even if Wu Qi cleans up her mess, it won't change the overall situation. The decline of the Spirit Hall is inevitable."

After a few lighthearted banter, the Shrek Six Monsters finally remembered their business.

Tang San instructed, "Mu Bai, Zhu Qing, keep a close eye on the Auction House and trading posts in the city."

"We are not Sea Spirit Master after all. Once we enter the Great Sea, we lose our means of self-defense. Therefore, we must purchase a batch of life-saving equipment for use at sea."

"Tian Heng and I will contact the shipowner later to find an ocean-going vessel. Tailong and Taila, you two continue to gather intelligence in the city and report back to me immediately if you have any news."

The Icefire Yin Yang Well.

This wasn't Wu Qi's first time here, so he knew the place well.

For Qiangu Changkong and Chen Ping, this was the first time they had seen the place where the Immortal Herb grew. They were captivated by the magnificent scenery and couldn't help but marvel at it.

Even within the Icefire Yin Yang Well, the growth cycle of Immortal Herb still requires decades or even centuries. At this moment, the only mature medicinal materials left are the High-Rank Medicinal Herbs cultivated by Dugu Bo.

Originally, Wu Qi planned to hand over this land to the Breaking Clan to manage in order to cultivate more medicinal herbs. However, they now need to complete their assessment here, so this idea has to be postponed.

Looking at the Icefire Spring at the source, as you approach slightly, waves of heat and extreme cold wash over you.

Qiangu Changkong hesitated, "This Spring Water contains such violent energy. Is it really safe to enter without dying?"

Neither he nor Chen Ping had ever used the power of the Spring Water for training before. This was their first time encountering the Spring Water, and they were unable to adapt to its violent energy in a short period of time.

Wu Qi chuckled, walked to their side, and pointed to the clear boundary between the two Spring Water.

"Entering just one type of Spring Water could indeed be fatal for you. But at the confluence of two Spring Water, the violent power subsides, making it more suitable for forging your physical strength."

Physical strength is extremely important for Soul Master. Ordinary Soul Master can only rely on the enhancements brought by Soul Ring and their own training to hone their physique. However, if they can use pressure training, they can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

The Icefire Yin Yang Well, as well as the Storm in Hurricane Canyon, are the best ways to temper one's physique.

To become a god, it's not enough to just raise your Soul Power Level to level 100; your Spiritual Power and physical strength must also reach the God Tier- level.

The God of Destruction arranged two stress training sessions to bring the three men's physiques to an unparalleled level, so that their success rate would be greater when they received the inheritance in the future.

This wasn't the first time Wu Qi had used the Icefire Spring to cultivate. Combined with the medicinal power of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot within his body, he was now able to easily infiltrate it.

To help Qiangu Changkong and the other person adapt to the power of the Spring Water, he did not attempt to dive down for the time being.

The time for the Divine Trial is indeed very tight, but there's no rush.

Vast Sea City.

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing had funds and purchased the necessary items for their voyage without encountering any problems.

However, things weren't going so smoothly for Tang San.

Finding a boat was easy, but when they heard it was going to Sea God Island, the boat owners avoided it like the plague.

Don't these ship owners want to go to Sea God Island?

The answer is no. As Sea Spirit Master, they all worship the Sea God.

However, to reach Sea God Island, one must pass through the Demon Whale Sea Domain, beneath which lies a great terror— the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.

Crossing the Demon Whale Sea Domain requires more than just Sea Chart; it also demands immense courage and determination.

Unfortunately, these ship owners either had the courage but lacked nautical Sea Chart for the relevant waters, or they had the Sea Chart but were afraid of losing their lives and fortunes and were therefore unwilling to go.

After failing to get the information he needed, Tang San returned to his Hotel and couldn't help but feel a bit irritated.

"Damn it, these ship owners are all unmoved. Even if you offered them ten thousand Gold Soul Coin, they wouldn't budge!"

Vast Sea City is a large city, but because it is isolated from other cities on the mainland, its Commercial Market operates almost entirely within its own borders.

As such, income and expenses within the city are both very low, so 10,000 Gold Soul Coin is definitely not a small sum.

The cost of building an ocean-going vessel is probably not that high.

Unfortunately, ships have a price, but sailors are priceless.

Training an excellent sailor is not something that can be done in a hundred days or so; it requires years, or even decades, of experience.

Buying a ship and the lives of the sailors for 10,000 Gold Soul Coin is definitely a losing proposition.

Dai Mubai comforted her, "Little San, calm down. Tian Heng hasn't returned yet; perhaps he can bring back good news."

Tang San suppressed his anxiety and could only wait for news from Yu Tianheng's side.

Not long after, Yu Tianheng rushed back.

"We've found a boat; a boat owner is willing to give us a ride."

These words were like a timely rain after a long drought.

Tang San quickly asked, "How big is the shipowner's ship? Can it withstand the strong winds and waves of the deep sea?"

These are all things that need to be clarified. If it's just a small boat, it could be capsized by any wave in the deep sea. Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?
