"Hmph, you think you can be let off so easily? What are you thinking? There's no such thing as a free lunch!"

The image of Li Yuan being burned to ashes flashed through Lin Xiao's mind. She snorted coldly and prepared to return the way she came.

Lin Xiao returned along the same route, having just jumped through 57 territories. Just as he was about to step into the fifty-eighth territory, a figure emerged from the opposite side, almost colliding with him.

The person opposite was also startled and stopped in their tracks, looking at Lin Xiao in alarm.

Lin Xiao stopped and began to scrutinize the person in front of him.

"Huh?" Lin Xiao murmured in confusion. He realized that he seemed to have seen the face of the person in front of him somewhere before.

After looking at it carefully for a while, Lin Xiao slapped his forehead.

He is the fourth in region 114514, Sikong Xinyou. When he obtained the Five Elements Positioning Compass, he had glanced at the top ten in his region.

Sikong Xinyou looked at the person in front of him in surprise, not understanding why the other person kept staring at him.

[Divination, S-level talent, seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune]

"Could this person before me be my future benefactor?"

That's right. On a whim, Sikong Xinyou used his talent to divine for himself and learned that he would meet the benefactor of his life in this place.

Before he came to the Misty World, he had already dabbled in divination.

After arriving in the Misty World, his divination skills became even more accurate thanks to his talent.

During those safe days, Sikong Xinyou used his divination skills to find out the location of various resources and successfully raised his strength to the first rank.

Lin Xiao was unaware of Sikong Xinyou's purpose, while Sikong Xinyou was also pondering whether the person in front of him was the benefactor indicated by his divination.

The two looked at each other in thought and fell silent.

Finally, Sikong Xinyou couldn't hold back any longer: "Who are you?"

Upon hearing Sikong Xinyou's question, Lin Xiao didn't answer it. Instead, she countered, "Shouldn't you state your identity before asking others questions, right, Sikong Xinyou?"

"How...how do you know my name?" Sikong Xinyou was extremely surprised, and even a trace of fear welled up in his heart.

This time, however, Lin Xiao did not reply to him. Instead, she lifted her foot and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Sikong Xinyou hurriedly called out, while quickly using divination to calculate.

Ultimately, it was concluded that if he were allowed to leave this time, it would be difficult to meet the benefactor the divination had told him about again.

Sikong Xinyou believed in the results of his divination, but he didn't know how to start a conversation.

Lin Xiao frowned when she saw Sikong Xinyou blocking her way.

"I'm sorry...actually..." Sikong Xinyou was extremely conflicted.

It's not surprising that he's like this. His talent doesn't actually give him much combat power. Although he can divine the existence of treasure chests, all of them are protected by powerful mist creatures.

Given his combat strength, obtaining those treasure chests would be extremely difficult.

Sikong Xinyou glanced at Lin Xiao and noticed a hint of impatience on his face.

"Actually, it's like this... I have a talent for fortune telling. My talent tells me that I will meet the benefactor of my life at this time and place, so..."

"So you think that so-called benefactor is me?"

Lin Xiao took over the conversation, and Sikong Xinyou nodded vigorously.

"A talent for fortune telling..."

Lin Xiao rested her chin on her hand, pondering the matter, while Sikong Xinyou watched her nervously.

"Then... can you calculate the existence of some items?" Lin Xiao suddenly asked.

"Of course, what kind of calculation do you need?"

"I want to know how to obtain items that can raise my strength level to the second or even third tier?"

Upon hearing this, Sikong Xinyou immediately began to perform divination.

First in his heart, then Sikong Xinyou's fingertips twitched slightly, and soon he opened his eyes, a hint of joy on his face.

"I've figured it out! If you trust me, please follow me!"

After Sikong Xinyou finished speaking, he entered the barrier.

Lin Xiao chuckled and slowly followed.

After Sikong Xinyou crossed to the other side, he waited in place for a while. Then, Lin Xiao also emerged from the barrier.

"You...uh...excuse me..."

Call me Mu Ri.

"Um... Brother Mu Ri, my divination tells me that in 10 minutes and 17 seconds, we will find what we need in a random territory behind the barrier in front of us."

Lin Xiao nodded after listening: "Okay, if we can really find that thing, then I'll admit that I'm your benefactor, but if we can't find it..."

Lin Xiao narrowed his eyes, and Sikong Xinyou understood the implication, so he quickly nodded.

Then the two fell silent, and time passed by, minute by minute.

They arrived quickly, within ten minutes. Sikong Xinyou consulted a divination stick and immediately tensed up: "Get ready!"

Lin Xiao also tensed up, waiting for the time Sikong Xinyou mentioned.

"Go in!" Sikong Xinyou shouted and stepped in first, while Lin Xiao also entered the barrier in front of him at the same time.

What appeared before Lin Xiao and Sikong Xinyou was a mountain peak that was only a little over a thousand meters high.

Strangely, even though it was daytime, the mountaintop was shrouded in a thick fog.

Roars echoed from within the mist, as if terrifying creatures lurked there.

"Brother Mu Ri, my talent really doesn't amount to much in combat, otherwise I would..."

Lin Xiao waved her hand, interrupting Sikong Xinyou: "Don't worry, I'll protect your safety. Besides, this mountain is so big, how could I find the item you predicted without your guidance?"

Although she was talking to Sikong Xinyou, Lin Xiao's gaze never left the mountain peak.

He could sense that this was not the territory of ordinary survivors, but rather a special territory like the Wood Soul Domain.

However, the size of this territory is only this one thousand-meter-high mountain peak.

"I really hope I can find an item to improve my cultivation level!" Lin Xiao muttered to himself.

Then, Lin Xiao set up 31 layers of shields on himself, turned around, and was about to set up a few layers for Sikong Xinyou as well.

But then they saw Sikong Xinyou take out a talisman and a pair of blue shoes with a pained expression.

Sikong Xinyou then affixed the talisman to his chest, and a faint golden light surrounded him.

After putting the shoes back on, Lin Xiao immediately felt that Sikong Xinyou's figure became much lighter.

Seeing Lin Xiao looking at him, Sikong Xinyou felt a little embarrassed, but still explained, "I got that talisman from a treasure chest. It can give me a third-level defense boost."
