On their way to the Fallen Star Sea, the Black Tide had been consumed, but the Gray Mist remained.
Zhang Chi thought about how the Gray Mist would gradually expand as it consumed more and more, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
There was so much Gray Mist when they had come; by the time they returned, would the mist have joined together into an unbroken expanse, preventing them from going back?
And to say the least, it was a very real possibility.
With that thought, Zhang Chi's entire demeanor soured.
But they had already come this far, and it wasn't a good time to turn back; they could only press on to the Fallen Star Sea with sheer willpower.
He could only hope to find the answers he wanted in the Fallen Star Sea.
The ship continued toward the Fallen Star Sea, and whenever they encountered the Black Tide again, everyone dealt with it in the same way.
By now, the Black Tide was no longer a threat but a significant nourishment for Gu Youyou.
