When the dizziness passed, Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi found themselves on a wasteland.
Everything was engulfed in a white mist as if they were in a forest in the early morning. The air was humid and foggy; they couldn't see anything beyond two meters.
Dressed in the thin Taoist robes, they felt cold. Hao Ren circulated the Spirit Concentration Scroll to keep warm, but Zhao Yanzi, without her Dragon Core, was shivering.
Hao Ren reached out and held her hand. She was about to shake his hand off when a surge of warmth traveled from his hand into her body. Realizing Hao Ren was trying to keep her warm, she nestled her hand into his palm more securely.
In this unfamiliar environment, Hao Ren didn't dare to move aimlessly. Standing at where he was, he took out the map Zhao Hongyu gave him and began to study it.
Looking up at Hao Ren, Zhao Yanzi took out a mini-compass from her bracelet and pointed. "This is east."
