Towards this question, Sima you Yue temporarily had no answer.

“It’s really strange! We clearly walked towards this direction, so why does it feel like we’re getting deeper in!” Si Yue asked with confusion.

Sima You Yue raised her head and looked in the direction of the sun, staying silent for a moment before musing, “I think that I’ve figured out the reason.”

“What?”

“After setting up camp at that oasis, once night came, the direction slowly changed.” Sima You Yue said, “When we left, we entered from this direction so we naturally thought that this was the exit. We headed in a straight line, but ended up feeling like we were going in deeper. This is the most likely explanation. If not, it means that the space here constantly changes.”

Just like the folding space they had encountered back in the wonderlands.

Apart from these two reasons, she couldn’t think of anything else.

“Should we head backwards?”

“Going back doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s the right way either. Sima You Yue said, “We have already walked for a day and a night, so the direction might be different again. Let’s not panic for now, let me do some tests.”

“What tests?”

“You’ll know when you see it. I’ll look for an oasis for now.”

After half a day had passed, they found an oasis. Si Yue set up camp at the side while Sima You Yue something that resembled a dart and inserted her spirit energy, after which it actually floated into the sky. After this, she took out three different colored little flags and placed them on the ground. In the middle was something that constantly faced the sky.

“If we use this, we can be assured that the direction won’t keep changing.” Si Yue said with understanding.

“Alright, we’ll get the results once tomorrow comes. Let’s head back and rest.” SIma You Yue dusted her hands and said.

On the morning of the second day, Sima You Yue heard Si Yue call out from inside the tent.

“You Yue, it really moves!’

Sima You Yue walked out and saw that the dart that was facing the flags had already turned to a specific direction. The dart was in the middle of it and another little flag.

Sima You Yue walked forwards and kept the flags away. She raised her hand and the dart landed in her palm.

“It seems like my guess was right. This was the result of only a night’s work. When morning came, it would definitely continue to move.” Her expression was rather solemn as she looked at the vast desert beyond the oasis. It was no wonder that many people entered and never got out again.

That was because the direction they headed in was not necessarily the right one!

“We can’t sense its changes because we are inside this place.” Si Yue said, “So that means we can’t get out either.”

“No. If it were anyone else, they might never be able to get out. However, we don’t have to worry about this problem.”

After Sima You Yue finished speaking, she called for a few thousand scarlet bees and got them to fly out in various directions. There would definitely be scarlet bees who would be able to find it.
