Ye Xiao looked at the other scenes which was not much different from what he saw earlier. Many participants encountered Immortal Beasts and were fighting against them.
He ignored everyone and focused on finding the White Flag, and it didn't take him long before he sensed the direction of the location of the White Flag. But to reach this location, Ye Xiao had to go through a lot of trouble.
What is more, he could not see where the White Flag was even with his Divine Sense, he could roughly sense the location of it. There must be a formation around the White Flag that could block the probing of Divine Sense.
Sensing the direction of the White Flag, Ye Xiao walked ahead. Not long after, he came to a valley. According to what he sensed, the White Flag was somewhere inside the valley.
Ye Xiao leaped up, entering the valley. The entire valley was filled with a sea of thick, white fog so thick that he could barely see his own fingers clearly. Relying on his eyesight, Ye Xiao could only see a hazy twenty meters around him. There was definitely something strange going on if his vision was limited to within twenty meters.
Finding the peculiarity of the surrounding thick white fog, Ye Xiao increased his vigilance. While moving forward with caution, his eyes surveyed the situation around him.
There was dead silence in all four directions, so silent that it felt eerie. From time to time, shrill cries of unknown creatures could be heard coming from the front, sending cold shivers down one's spine.
Ye Xiao moved slowly and cautiously through the thick white fog for an hour. There was nothing in the surrounding area other than the white fog. What was more, the temperature kept decreasing as he moved forward!
Although he had the Ice Elemental Body, it could not help much to Ye Xiao, after all, he only have an ordinary Ice Elemental Body.
It was fortunate that he had the Sun Fire Soul that continued to send warmth to Ye Xiao otherwise, he would have definitely frozen inside this valley a long while ago.

Outside, surrounding the arena, people were watching the scene of participants on the water-screen. There were exactly 120 water screens and people could watch the performance of whoever participants they wanted.
As some of the participants continued to die, along with their deaths, the water screen would also disappear.
On a big water screen, Wu Cheng, Ta Mu, and Huang Daniu were looking at Ye Xiao. They simply ignored other participants and kept looking at his performance. They heard him muttering "Evil-Eyed Panda", they also saw him looking in the direction of the valley before going there.
At first, they were surprised to see that Ye Xiao was directly going in the direction where one of the five White Flags were hidden, but after some time, they realized that Ye Xiao must have evolved his Sea of Consciousness into Divine Sea, otherwise, he would not have been able to sense so far.
But they also knew Ye Xiao must have roughly got to sense the location of the White Flag after all they had built a powerful formation around the White Flag that could block and divert the probing of one's Divine Sense.
Knowing that Ye Xiao had Divine Sea, they became very excited. The more powerful Ye Xiao is, the more decentish it would be.
"This guy's luck is really bad. He actually chose the White Flag which is placed in 'that' place. Acquiring the White Flag from that place is not easy. That is the most dangerous place in the entire Land of Ice. Even we found it difficult to put that flag there." Ta Mu said while taking a deep sigh.
"Yeah! His luck is really bad!" Huang Daniu and Wu Cheng nodded their heads.
Wu Cheng said, "Let's watch his performance first. If his performance will be up to standard, we will immediately save him if he were to fall in great danger!"
Ta Mu and Huang Daniu nodded their heads in agreement. They also didn't want to lose the candidate they had found much difficulty to go to 'that' place with so easily.
Well, they were not the only ones who were watching Ye Xiao's performance. The Sect Leader of the Seven Star Sect was also the one who was watching Ye Xiao. He wanted to see if betting on Ye Xiao was the right thing he had done or not.
.....
It seemed peaceful the entire way as Ye Xiao moved deeper, but the uneasy palpitations in his heart grew increasingly stronger. An innate feeling of impending danger came from the very core of his soul.
This feeling of unease gave Ye Xiao an illusion that he was walking step by step into the deepest part of hell.
Another hour passed.
The only difference from before was that the white fog grew denser the further he went. When Ye Xiao first entered the valley, he could make out at least ten meters around him. Now, he could barely see his own fingers as he stretched his hand out in front of himself.
Ye Xiao continued to walk straight when suddenly, the white fog around him moved like flowing water accompanied by the strange shrieks that started to grow clearer.
When the white fog moved it seemed to trigger the strange cries.
Ye Xiao's nerves stretched thin, a grave expression shown on his face as he readied himself to react to any changes at any moment. The sharp shrieks continued echoing in the valley. Ye Xiao surmised the cries came from some kind of living being that was probably not part of the Immortal Beast races. It sounded closer to an evil fiend from the underworld.
All of a sudden, something powerful lunged at him from the front, piercing through the fog and startling Ye Xiao. Wings of the Divine Dragon immediately grew out from his back before he flapped them as he steered to the side, avoiding the thing attacking him.
A dark black creature with sharp white bones that was growing out from its back in a straight line rushed out from the fog. It was shaped like a human but had four arms and glowing scarlet eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYe Xiao barely succeeded in dodging the collision with that strange creature. The strange black creature brushed past Ye Xiao, sending a wave of chilling aura from towards him that made him feel felt like he was being frozen into an ice sculpture. A strong prickling pain shot through the surface of his skin from the burst of extremely low temperature.
"Sun Fire Soul!"
Ye Xiao's body was immediately set ablaze with the Sun Fire Soul that covered his entire body, making the chilling aura dissipate. Only then Ye Xiao took a deep breath.
The strange creature did not pursue Ye Xiao again. Instead, it ran straight back into the thick white fog as if it did not see him.
But, moments after Ye Xiao avoided the strange black creature's attack, just within a few breaths of time, another strange black creature lunged at him again from the front.
Alarmed, Ye Xiao once again displayed Wings of Divine Dragon, avoiding the attack from the strange creature. The strange creature once again went into hiding inside the white fog.
And the same thing repeated every few breaths' time.
One after another, these strange black creatures seemed endless. When one disappeared into the fog, another would appear almost immediately. And the thing that made Ye Xiao's face turn ugly was that every time a new one appeared, their attack speed and the icy aura became more terrifying.
After dodging more than a dozen of these strange black creatures, Ye Xiao actually felt trepidation when he spotted yet another creature appearing and coming straight at him.
In the blink of an eye, the creature had reached in front of Ye Xiao. Even displaying "Spirit Devour Escape" as quick as he could, one of his arms still caught the chilly aura. A shocking pain washed over him as if every pore and even internal organ has started to freeze.
Ye Xiao again used the Sun Fire Soul to subside this chilly aura from within his body. But this time, even the Sun Fire Soul took a few more seconds before it was able to dissipate the chilling aura that went inside Ye Xiao's body.
Ye Xiao was really shocked. This was the first time something managed to penetrate his physical defense, injuring him to this extent.
Ye Xiao once again started walking deeper but before he could move even a hundred meters further inside, Another strange black creature appeared and rushed at him,
This time, there was a cold light flashing inside Ye Xiao's eyes. He was really pissed of by these strange creature, so without wasting any time, he immediately used the "Soul Destruction", causing the strange creature to suddenly stop. Its soul was destroyed without any warning.
Only then did Ye Xiao neared the strange creature and started studying it. He found that this creature's strength was equal to a Middle-Stage Immortal King Realm martial artist. It was no wonder that its speed was so fast.
