Lin Wu saw the end of the gloomy sea of clouds and the plains that extended beyond that. Even farther than the plains, he could see some mountains that blocked the view of the horizon.
Even if Lin Wu could not see past that, he knew what existed there.
"The Great Ocean of the Ming Dao world…" Lin Wu muttered.
The ocean was uniquely shaped in the form of a 'Y' while the continents surrounded it on three sides. Considering the position that Lin Wu was in on the Long continent, he would be just below the center of the 'Y'.
But while the ocean was shaped like a 'Y' it was actually not that narrow. It was still broad enough that it would take years to cross it. And this was only if there was no danger, but that was not so.
The Great ocean was filled with dangers that would threaten even Dao Treading Realm cultivators. The aquatic beasts that lived in the ocean, along with the unique phenomena that occurred there, would spell doom for most people.
If one wanted to cross the great ocean, one needed luck more than anything. Trade between the three continents did happen, but it was quite rare and took a long time to happen. Only the three great clans of the world knew the ocean routes that were considered to be relatively safe.
Lin Wu and the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle watched on as the platform eventually slowed down over some small hills. It then started to descend while pillars rose from the hills.
The hills were pierced through and it was as if they were all built by piling soil on top of these pillars. They were fully covered with plants and vegetation, but the arrival of the platform, disturbed them while uprooting many of them.
~DENG~
Once the platform came to land on the four pillars, Lin Wu and the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle got down from it. Unlike the previous place where the platform had halted, there was no village here.
From the stone feather Lin Wu had gotten from the village, he reckoned that there must be another one here somewhere. Like Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle had said before, they were like keys of some kind.
"What do we do now?" The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle asked.
"Do you sense anything?" Lin Wu asked.
"No… once we went past the limits of the Dread Coil marsh, all of my bloodline resonance stopped. Whatever it is, it's in the Marsh itself." The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle answered.
"Hmm… then why did the platform bring us here, and it's not like it went here on its own, there are these pillars here, which meant that it was supposed to come here." Lin Wu muttered.
He spread his spirit sense around and tried to find the stone feather.
"You go that way and I'll go this way. See if you can find another stone feather somewhere. I think that is the key to getting to the end of it." Lin Wu stated.
The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle simply nodded her head and few to the eastern side while Lin Wu went to the west. For the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle using spirit sense was not even needed as her eyesight could scan everything very well from the skies.
But Lin Wu on the other hand, dug into the ground and moved around at great speed. He first checked the pillars themselves that were in supporting the platform and found nothing attached to them.
They were simple constructs with some formations on them. Even the system did not find anything that was unusual with them. Giving up on them for now, he just went to search for the stone feather.
Since the stone feather was in the village where the platform landed, Lin Wu reckoned that this one should be somewhere nearby too. The first thing he did was to unearth all of the hills here and see if there was anything hiding there.
But it turned out to be a failure and instead, he provoked a few core condensation realm beasts that lived nearby.
~CRUNCH~
"That was a good snack. Back to working." Lin Wu muttered after devouring the three beasts.
"System, scan the area. The interference should be gone, right?" Lin Wu asked.
~DING~

Lin Wu opened the newly updated map and saw the countless new markers that had appeared on it. Since the inference field had stopped after the border of the Dread Coil Marsh, Lin Wu was free to use the system's functions to the max.
He directly filtered out the markers that he did not need, like the beasts below the Nascent Soul realm. In addition to this, he highlighted markers that were unusual and were not particularly recognized by the system.
Lin Wu reckoned that the stone feather was bound to be here. But after going through the many markers, he found it hard to find it.
"Where could it be?" Lin Wu wondered.
And while he was doing this, he found a different colored marker appearing at the very edge of the map.
"Huh? It's moving, so it must be a beast." Lin Wu saw that the color was for the Nascent Soul realm beasts since he had hidden all other markers for beasts.
He continued watching it for a bit and saw that it had gone to one of the mountains in the distance. Since that was the only Nascent Soul realm beast here, Lin Wu reckoned that asking that beast might be a better option for now.
As for whether that beast would comply or not? Lin Wu did not care. The beast would live and answer Lin Wu properly or die and still answer him in the form of its memories.
"Let's go do some good Ol' hunting." Lin Wu said as he approached the mountains from underground.
In less than an hour, he was at the mountains the base of which were covered with blue flowers.
