Su Yi's decision to head to the Eastern Sea was not a spur-of-the-moment whim.
First, dark tides were surging through the Immortal Realm, and the situation was turbulent. Only by lying low and staying out of the fray could he avoid being passively swept into all manner of storms.
Second, deep within the Eastern Sea lay many mysterious forbidden regions, and the opportunities scattered within them were of crucial importance to his attainment of the Immortal King Realm.
Third, it was related to Li Fuyou, his fifth life!
Sword-Bearing Old Ape had once mentioned that during the Primordial Era, Li Fuyou had left behind an "Ephemera Boat" in the Eastern Sea. By taking that boat, one could reach Spirit Ruins Mountain, where Li Fuyou had entered seclusion.
Spirit Ruins Mountain held Li Fuyou's lifelong legacy, along with all manner of Daoist collections and inheritances he had gathered.
Back then, Sword-Bearing Old Ape had been fortunate enough to ride the Ephemera Boat to Spirit Ruins Mountain, where he saw inheritance tomes as vast as a sea of smoke.
This time, Su Yi intended to try his luck as well. Perhaps he could find Spirit Ruins Mountain and further uncover the events of his fifth life.

Su Yi was taken aback, but his expression did not change. "Is this auction special?"
With a smiling squint, the goateed old man held out two fingers and rubbed them together.
