The "fishing nets" spread by the Sea Race Warriors expanded at an extremely fast pace.
Because they, too, were in a rush for time.

The area around Ding province was vast. They focused their search on the zone stretching from Ding province Floating Island to Boundary River, which significantly narrowed down the range but still presented challenges.
In Ding province, two points that are a bit farther apart often lack a direct line of distance between them, since directions could be chaotic and circuitous.
Jiang Wang was able to find his way successfully only by relying on a guiding map.
