After walking in the fog for nearly half an hour, Xi Yunting suddenly said, "No."

Jing Hui was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong? The direction?"

Chen Xiao replied, "I'm watching the direction, there's no deviation."

Xi Yunting said slowly and solemnly: "I'm not saying the direction is wrong, but the situation is wrong. According to what was said before, the island in the lake is very large. At our speed, we should be close to it now, but I don't see any land at this moment."

Jinghui was surprised and suspicious, "Did we miss it?"

Chen Xiao's voice said: "Impossible, the direction is indeed correct, and the place where we enter the water is the most suitable location that the evil cultivator said. If the island in the lake really exists, we can't miss it."

Jinghui once again suspected that it was the evil cultivator who was causing trouble.

Xi Yunting said: "It shouldn't be the evil cultivators who are causing trouble, it should be this Immortal Palace."

Chen Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Let's go first and walk for a while to see how it goes."

Jing Hui had no choice but to follow silently. Now he regretted not paying attention to the information provided by the evil cultivator. Even if he didn't cooperate with the evil cultivator, it would be good to find a chance to get a disciple from those big forces to ask questions...

After walking for another hour, they finally saw the shore. However, they did not feel happy for long as they were shocked to find that this was not an island in the lake but the other side of the lake.

"Well, it seems that there is indeed something wrong with our method of landing on the island." Chen Xiao sighed.

Xi Yunting's face was very cold. He said, "Let's go back."

Under the guidance of Chen Xiao, the group took quite some time to return to the opposite shore of the lake.

Xi Yunting stood by the lake, thought for a moment, and said, "We didn't meet anyone until we reached the other side, which means there is indeed a channel leading to the island, but we didn't use the right method. If floating on the water doesn't work, then let's try wading."

Chen Xiao was a little worried and said, "It's easier to control the distance when floating in the air so as not to get lost, but it's not easy to control the arrangement of movement when entering the water."

Xi Yunting looked back at the disciples behind him and said, "It's okay. They are all experienced elites. Even if they are separated, they know what to do."

Jing Hui said: "Otherwise, just string them together with a rope."

Xi Yunting shook his head in objection: "If something goes wrong, it will easily drag other people into it, and the losses will be even greater."

If you encounter danger in such a place, a rope alone cannot save you. Not only will the rope fail to provide safety, it will become a hazard.

Once again prepared, this time they waded in.

Chen Xiao took out the bead and stuffed it into his mouth. The cold lake water flowed over his mouth and nose. The clothes on his body were not made of waterproof material, so they absorbed moisture and floated with the water.

The lake was covered with thick fog, making the view in the water very dim. However, although it was dim, the vision was much better than in the fog.

Soon they left the shore and entered the deep part of the lake. In order to prevent accidents, Xi Yunting took out the illuminating magic weapon and lit it.

The field of vision became brighter, and with the illumination of this lamp, the team's movement became immediately more convenient.

"Look! In front!" Jing Hui discovered something and excitedly transmitted the message to the two of them.

There was a turbid layer of floating material on the bottom of the water not far ahead. It was caused by someone passing by and stirring up the mud on the bottom of the lake. The dust in the lake water fell slowly, and once it was violently stirred, the floating material would not return to calm for two or three days.

"It seems that this time it is correct." Chen Xiao said in a voice transmission.

"Well, let's walk along the bottom of the lake too." Xi Yunting said.

After finding the right place, everyone was in high spirits and excited, and even the slightly difficult movement in the lake did not seem troublesome.

This time, I walked for an hour before the bottom of the lake began to rise. This time, when I walked up and surfaced, the shore I saw was no longer the other side of the lake.

After a lot of hard work from morning till now, fortunately they successfully arrived at the island in the lake within one day.

The thick fog still shrouded the surroundings and showed no sign of dissipating. Instead, as night fell, visibility became even worse.

Xi Yunting looked around, placed the lamp on a large rock, and said, "Rest for a quarter of an hour, don't go too far."

After walking in the water for more than two hours, everyone felt a little sore, so they dispersed in groups of three or four and sat on the ground to rest.

Chen Xiao sat down next to a big rock, taking the time to drink water and eat something.

He is now in the out-of-body stage. After many baptisms, his physique is almost the same as that of immortal cultivators. However, he still cannot absorb spiritual energy to provide energy for the body like immortal cultivators.

He now has higher requirements for the food he eats and the water he drinks. Only food and water that are grown in places with abundant spiritual energy can provide him with adequate nutrition.

Chen Xiao dug out a piece of smoked meat. This piece of smoked meat was the product of a place in the void where he landed on a celestial realm with many ferocious beasts.

Chen Xiao and Huang Keran did a lot of harm to the ferocious beasts in dangerous places. Their skin, bones, tendons, blood and teeth were all collected for use as materials. Most of the meat was fed to Xiao Ba, and the rest was made into jerky as food.

"Do you want to eat?" Chen Xiao asked.

Xi Yunting nodded: "Give me a small piece." He was not hungry, but he just didn't want Chen Xiao to eat alone.

A warm feeling surged in Chen Xiao's heart, and he cut a small piece for him with a sharp knife.

Xi Yunting put the dried meat in his mouth. It had a salty taste and was very hard at first, but as he chewed it, a fragrance burst out from the meat fibers. The more he chewed, the more fragrant it became.

Even people like Xi Yunting who practice fasting can't help but whet their appetite when they see a piece of dried meat.

Seeing that he seemed to be unsatisfied, Chen Xiao smiled and cut another piece and handed it to his lips. Xi Yunting paused, lowered his eyes, opened his mouth, and ate the piece of jerky.

The way he ate with his hands was so adorable. If it wasn't in front of others, Chen Xiao really wanted to go over and give him a kiss on the lips.

Jinghui was sitting cross-legged on the side to rest, feeling uncomfortable as if she was sitting on caltrops under the two men's disgusting buttocks.

"Hmm." He cleared his throat. "Although we have arrived at the island in the lake, we cannot let our guard down. Ever since we rejected the Equipment Refiners' Alliance, we have been rivals. If they get here first, they will definitely attack us."

Xi Yunting broke down the dried meat in his mouth into energy and swallowed it, saying seriously: "We must not take it lightly at any moment from now on."

He called Zhao Fang over and gave him some instructions, telling the disciples to be more vigilant. Seeing this, Jing Hui also called De Yuan over and made the same request.

A quarter of an hour later, the group continued to move deeper into the island.

"Have you noticed that the fog seems to be getting thicker?" Jing Hui said solemnly.

There was already a lot of fog in the lake, and after we got to the island, it not only did not get better, but became even worse.

"Let the disciples come closer." Xi Yunting said to Zhao Fang.

Soon after Zhao Fang delivered the message, they were attacked without any warning.

The fog was too thick, seriously interfering with perception. Furthermore, the opponent was unintentional, so the disciples of the Chongxuan School and the Jinchan Sect were dispersed in an instant.

"It's the people from Huolian Temple!" Jing Hui was angry. "Well, I haven't even started to pick a fight with you, but you dare to come to me on your own initiative. Let me measure you and see how brave you are!"

An evil cultivator and a Fire Lotus Temple, both were hated by Jing Hui. Without even trying to provoke them, Jing Hui rushed towards the figure.

"Don't fall into the other party's trap!" Chen Xiao shouted in shock, but Jing Hui didn't listen at all and didn't even stop for a moment.

Everyone else knew that it was better not to chase after a desperate enemy. The fog was so thick that once they dispersed, they would not be able to find each other. Even if they were within a hundred meters of each other, they would not be able to find each other.

Chen Xiao looked around anxiously and simply chased after him.

After Xi Yunting killed all the people in front of him, he realized that both Chen Xiao and Jing Hui were missing.

He was startled, a feeling of panic arose in his heart, and a deep darkness emerged in the depths of his eyes.

"Uncle Master!" Zhao Fang ran up to him and asked, "Because the incident happened suddenly, three of us died, five were seriously injured, and the minor injuries were basically not serious."

Xi Yunting took a deep breath and asked, "What about Jin Chan Sect?"

Zhao Fang said: "One of the Jin Chan sect members died, but no one was seriously injured."

Xi Yunting made a prompt decision and said, "Go and arrange for people to escort the seriously injured back to the camp by the lake. Don't stay here any longer. Go find Deyuan and ask him to come see me."

"Okay!" Zhao Fang took the order and left.

Jinghui is missing, and Deyuan is the only one who can control the disciples of Jin Chan Sect. He came over and saluted Xi Yunting and said, "Uncle Xi, Uncle said before that if he is not here, let us follow your arrangements."

Xi Yunting nodded and said, "Next, I will arrange for someone to escort the injured back, and you should also select two people to go back with them."

Deyuan did as Xi Yunting instructed. He burned the dead body on the spot, collected the ashes and the name certificate, and asked the caregivers to take them with them.

After these people walked in the direction they came from, Xi Yunting took out a pointer and stood there watching without moving.

Zhao Fang and Chang Shou didn't know what he was doing. After waiting for a while, Zhao Fang approached carefully and asked, "Uncle Master, what are you waiting for?"

Xi Yunting said in a very light voice: "He knows what to do at this time. He will give me a signal."

Zhao Fang didn't understand. He felt that his uncle's words didn't seem to be spoken to him, but more like to himself.

After an unknown amount of time, Xi Yunting let out a long sigh, "Okay, let's go."

With Chen Xiao's mental power as guidance, Xi Yunting could just follow the direction of the pointer and they would be able to meet up together.

So far, they don’t know how big the island is or the terrain, so they can only grope their way forward.

In front of him was a hill that was not very flat. After walking up and down for a while, Zhao Fang was the first to notice something wrong.

"Hey, why have my clothes become bigger?" He was confused to find that his sleeves had become longer and his pants had also become longer.

When he said this, others also noticed that their clothes had become larger.

But then, they were horrified to find that it was not the clothes that had become bigger, but they themselves had become smaller!

"What's going on? Why are we becoming smaller?!" Chang Shou was shocked.

Xi Yunting released his pressure and shouted, "Calm down!"

The chaotic disciples finally quieted down, and Xi Yunting walked up to them through the thick fog.

Zhao Fang said in horror: "Master, Uncle Master! You are also getting smaller!"
