Watching the Live Fate Map turning completely black, Ace was ashen because he knew he had entered a fatal area.
Without hesitation, he controlled the sailboat to escape this place post hastily, but to his dismay, the sailboat seed to have lost all its power, and it kept moving ahead.
Ace quickly ran to the edge of the deck, and he was barely able to see the water current had turned up. It was so strong that the boat's formation was not strong enough to go against it.
'Just what kind of place I ended up in? The fate map is pointing in the sa direction as this water current. But this area is completely black, and there isn't even a sliver of Qi present. Should I try to swim back?'
The mont this notion ca to Ace's mind, he threw it away when he rembered the black fate point he saw a few minutes ago.
Furthermore, his thief's sense was still calm, which ant he wasn't in fatal danger yet. Still, this was a black area, and he would be an idiot just to stay still and wait for his demise.
Ace looked at the surroundings enshroud by thick black fog. His vision was obstructed because of this radiation, and he could only see clearly ten ters around him.
The fate map was still open as he watched it for any sign of changes or so other color fate location.
At this mont, the sailboat started to flutter as the water current was getting stronger and stronger, and it was moving forward with a terrifying spell.
Ace looked at the chaotic water flow with a deep frown, 'I can't just stay still, I need to make a decision, or I won't be able to later.'
At this mont, Ace noticed sothing as he abruptly looked at the fate map, and his expression turned pale white like a ghost.
There were eight black fate points with another red circle around them, and all of them were moving in his direction, and they would be here ten seconds from their speed.
This ti, Ace was spooked seeing those eight black fate points approaching in his direction, and his mind raced.
'They are coming right in my direction, or are they just passing by like the last one? No, the red color indicates that they are enemies. It doesn't matter if they are coming toward or just passing by. If they sense the boat, they will definitely attack, unlike the last one, who seed to be not hostile. I need to get rid of this boat. It's too flashy!'
Ace quickly decided while gritting his teeth. The next mont, the entire sailboat vanished under his feet, and he ca in contact with the radiation for the first ti.
Although the feeling was uncomfortable, like so slimy substance all over his skin, overall, he was completely fine.
The next mont, a green wood plank appeared on the chaotic water, and Ace landed on it. This wood plank was a grade-4 material.
But the mont it ca in contact with the radiation fog, it started to lose its luster.
However, Ace's attention is on those eight black fate point as he rides on the plank in those chaotic waves without much difficulty.
As a cultivator, balancing was the last thing he was worried about unless he was riding in the middle of chaotic Qi water; this normal water was far from harmful to him.
Ace was astonished because all of a sudden, the red circles around the black fate point faded away and completely vanished into the black fate map.
Realization dawn upon Ace at this mont, 'Don't tell they were attracted by my sailboat or the Qi undulation created by the sailboat? This place is exempt from Qi, so it's quite possible they were drawn here by the sudden appearance of Qi waves created by the sailboat's barrier.
'Now that the sailboat is no longer here and this plank is too small to create such Qi waves, they couldn't find ? The only way to confirm this is….'
Ace decided to try his theory since it was the question of his survival.
When he put the sailboat away because he was planning to use this thick radiation mist to hide his aura completely, he knew this radiation was completely capable of that as anything with Qi would be useless in here, like the martial sense or soul senses.
Unless soone had an active sense as his Thief Sense, no one will be able to probe within the radiation by using martial sense or soul sense.
However, now, if his theory was right, he didn't need to bother with anything and just make sure he won't use Qi here, and he would be fine in this black fate area.
At least, he hopes so since, in a sense, he can't go back right now and only moved forward.
A formation plate appeared in his hand, which was a grade-5 formation equivalent to the boat's formation. He slowly activated it, and Qi undulation was created.
Almost instantly, Ace saw the eight black fate points appear again with the sa red ring around them, and without hesitation, he quickly stowed the formation plate away.
Just like before, those eight black fate points vanished again, and Ace's eyes shimred with a hint of hope.
'So, it was really about Qi!' He was sure of it.
But it wasn't the solution because he was still moving in an unknown direction, and he was now completely helpless to go back, and he was even regretting sailing in the fog.
Still, he knew he had no choice but to follow the fate map direction since he had no idea where he ended up in the endless sea.
At least he had a direction to follow, or he won't even know where he was heading. While surfing on the water current, the plank, which was filled with Qi a few monts ago, was now turned into a wilted dry plank without any Qi.
However, Ace was bothered by it. As long as it could float over the water and pull his weight, he was fine with it, especially when having Qi could draw terrifying existences.
An hour passed as Ace was still pulled toward an unknown direction, and the cloudy black fag was now even thicker as he could now feel so resistance from the fog as he passed through it.
Right at this mont, Ace's eyes contracted because, in this darkness, he suddenly saw sothing absurd.
He saw the light within the black fog and the silhouette of a mountain range!
