As Pidgeot slowly flew above the island, Mo Hui gradually got a clear view of its full appearance.
The island centered around a large main island, surrounded by many smaller archipelagos. There were also some small towns on those islands, with people dressed in exotic attire occasionally entering and exiting.
"It seems it's not an uninhabited island; I can find a place to rest."
A smile appeared on Mo Hui's face as he looked at the scene below.
Although an uninhabited island wasn't impossible for resupply, Mo Hui's knowledge was quite extensive, so he wouldn't make the mistake of food poisoning.
And with Mo Hui's current strength, unless he encountered a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, it was basically impossible for anything to pose a threat to Mo Hui.
But 100,000-year Spirit Beasts were not that easy to encounter; throughout the first part of Douluo Continent, the 100,000-year Spirit Beasts that appeared could be counted on two hands.
At this moment, Mo Hui noticed that in the middle of these islands, encircled by a body of seawater, there was a mountain-like island enveloped in a faint golden light. At the top of the island, there was a square domed structure, appearing as if carved from white jade. This structure, under the faint golden light, seemed somewhat sacred.
"What a peculiar island! Could this be some kind of treasure trove?"
Mo Hui looked at the bizarre island below, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and a touch of curiosity arose within him.
He had never heard of such a strange island overseas. Could it be that he had flown too far and arrived at some region outside of Douluo Continent?
After all, Mo Hui was now quite well-read, yet in all the knowledge he had acquired, there was no information that corresponded to the island before him.
But then, Mo Hui instinctively felt that something was off. Overseas, islands, palaces—these pieces of information somehow gave him a sense of déjà vu.
However, no matter how he thought about it, Mo Hui couldn't recall it for a moment. So he shook his head and said, "Never mind. I'll find a small town to go down and see. I'll know what's going on once I ask. I just hope there's no language barrier."
Immediately, Mo Hui had Pidgeot descend, flying towards one of the small towns, and soon arrived above it.
Since it was an unfamiliar place, Mo Hui didn't directly enter the island's interior using his 'unity of heaven and man' ability, as that would be too impolite. Instead, he landed in a corner outside the city and then slowly walked towards the city gate with Pidgeot.
"Stop, who are you? Why are you here?"
As Mo Hui and Pidgeot approached them, the Spirit Masters guarding the city gate immediately became vigilant. One of them, a middle-aged Spirit Master in a special yellow robe, even shouted at Mo Hui.
However, upon hearing their words, Mo Hui was not surprised but rather delighted, because he understood what the Spirit Master said, which meant they could communicate. In a sense, he hadn't strayed too far from Douluo Continent; it was possible he was just on a small island at the edge of Douluo Continent.
Mo Hui replied, "I am a lost traveler. I came here to find a place to rest."
"Lost your way here?"
Upon hearing Mo Hui's answer, the yellow-robed middle-aged Spirit Master's expression immediately became strange.
Even if you're making an excuse, you should find a better one. Just getting to this island is a near-death experience for outsiders, let alone reaching this city. You've strayed too far, haven't you?
However, the yellow-robed middle-aged Spirit Master didn't dare to truly do anything to Mo Hui, because it was obvious that no matter how the other party arrived here, his strength was absolutely formidable, not something a lowly Yellow-rank guard like him could contend with.
"Please wait a moment, I cannot make this decision."
The yellow-robed middle-aged Spirit Master bowed slightly to Mo Hui, then instructed a few people beside him and quickly ran into the city.
After the yellow-robed middle-aged Spirit Master left, Mo Hui briefly observed the surroundings and found that this city was even smaller than Nuoding City. Its city walls were only five meters high and looked quite shabby.
However, these Spirit Masters' ranks were quite high. The yellow-robed middle-aged Spirit Master just now actually had the cultivation of a Spirit King, and the other guards also had the strength of a Spirit Ancestor. It seemed he had truly arrived at a magical place, so few people, yet the probability of them being Spirit Masters was so high.
After looking around, Mo Hui asked the remaining guards, "Um, excuse me, where is this place, and in which direction is the nearest continent?"
"This is Sea Horse City. As for the continent, that's far away, outsider!"
At this moment, the yellow-robed middle-aged Spirit Master walked out with a black-clothed Spirit Master who looked slightly weathered. It was the black-clothed Spirit Master who had just spoken.
Sea Horse City!?
Upon hearing this, a bolt from the blue suddenly struck Mo Hui's mind. He finally knew what that sense of familiarity was all about.
He should have thought of it earlier: overseas, islands, palaces—when these pieces of information were combined, where else in Douluo Continent could it be besides Sea God Island?
Seeing Mo Hui's somewhat stunned expression, Sea Horse Douluo frowned slightly, because from his experience, Mo Hui's reaction didn't seem feigned. Could it be that the other party truly got lost and arrived at Sea God Island?
But how was that possible? One must know that Sea God Island is guarded by the Devil Spirit Great White Shark group. Outsiders who try their best to enter face a near-certain death, let alone those who stumble in unintentionally.
Unless the Devil Spirit Great White Shark group went out to forage, but he hadn't heard any such news?
However, after pondering for a while, Sea Horse Douluo still spoke to Mo Hui, "It seems you must have heard of this place. If so, you should know that this place does not welcome outsiders, especially continental Spirit Masters."
"However, given your special circumstances, I will give you two choices: one is that I will arrange for someone to send you out after some time, and the other is to accept the Sea God's trial and become a member of Sea God Island."
"Come, outsider, tell me your choice!"

Spirit Hall, Supreme Pontiff Palace main hall.
Bibi Dong frowned as she looked at Xie Yue and Hu Liena, who were kneeling on one knee below her.
"Do you know what you are saying? Since its existence, only a few people have ever emerged from Slaughter City. You two want to go together? Are you truly not afraid of death?"
Bibi Dong was having a headache at this moment. If it were just Hu Liena alone, she might have agreed. After all, Hu Liena was her chosen successor, and if she was willing to go to Slaughter City, Bibi Dong would only be happy that the person she chose had such courage.
But if it was two people, the situation was different.
She had once braved Slaughter City and emerged from it, knowing how stringent the rules for surviving Slaughter City were. The probability of two people coming out together was minuscule. The Golden Generation were the most outstanding geniuses of their Spirit Hall in this generation, and she did not want to lose them meaninglessly.
