Hou Niao continued to circle around Sangmu Island, walking and stopping along the way. After several rounds, he arrived at a tidal reef some ten miles away from Sangmu Island. There were many such reefs surrounding islands, appearing during high tide and emerging during low tide, essentially accessories to the island itself.
This particular reef was slightly different, as it consisted of three uniformly arranged, trapezoid-shaped standalone rocks, making it highly recognizable.
It was now high tide, and the entire reef was submerged under the water's surface, but this posed little obstacle to him now.
He had dived in the Blue Sea, let alone here in the shallow waters about ten fathoms deep near the coast, where the Sea Clan had vanished, making it very safe.
