David's group had no more reasons to wait.

They had learnt their new spells and they had also tested them in private, they were at peak form too, it was time to continue in the exploration.

The azure sand illuminated the environment, the rocky structures in the distance were the only stark change in the scenery, they were the only element that seemed to contrast with the seabed and the many hills placed along the way.

That's why they became the only possible destination in the cultivators' minds, they would just think of something else if even those structures led to a dead end.

The group of five moved slowly, they didn't talk much but they spent time exploring the caves on the surface of the hills that they passed.

Every cave seemed to have a dragon restrained inside it, its kind and aspect always matched those in the trials of the labyrinth.

Noah's hypothesis seemed accurate, even the others in his team were amazed when they learnt about it.
