Gu Shi Yi nodded,
"Yes, Elder Mao!"
"Remember to send messages back often!"
"Yes!"
Gu Shi Yi responded, then his body flickered and he jumped off the flying boat, transforming into a white light and disappearing...
After flying five hundred miles in one breath, Gu Shi Yi looked down to see the previously lush forest below begin to thin out. After flying a few hundred more miles, even the trees were out of sight, leaving only patches of wild grass. Eventually, even the wild grass disappeared, revealing vast expanses of desolate gravelly ground, which soon turned into an endless yellow desert,
"Whew..."
In the high sky, strong winds began to blow, carrying fine sand. Gu Shi Yi disliked the feeling of sand getting into his body, so he took out the Wind-stabilizing Pearl and slightly activated it. The pearl emitted a gentle white light that enveloped his whole body, allowing him to move forward unhindered despite the fierce winds!
