Lin Qiao spent quite a while swimming downward. She felt that at least a couple of minutes had passed, yet the lake bottom was still nowhere near. She sensed that Viney was pretty close to her, yet she swam for a while but couldn't see the bottom of the lake.
It was so weird!
Holding the energy nuclei, she kept swimming downward. She couldn't tell how long she had swum, but after one hour or two, she finally saw a shred of shadow in the water. As she went further down, the shadow grew more and more obvious.
Soon, she saw something dark-purple.
She didn't think that the lake was actually so deep. It was scary!
As she got close enough, she found that the dark-purple thing she saw was the ground. Soon, she stood on the ground and looked around, but found no bounds.
She didn't see Viney.
She had a sense that Viney was here. Where exactly was Viney?
