The information revealed by the Shadow Phantom left Shangguan Linlang momentarily unable to process it, but Shangguan Linlang knew very well that now was not the time to get tangled up in trivial details. With this in mind, Shangguan Linlang directly asked the Shadow Phantom about the secret of the cabin and how exactly she was supposed to leave the Lost Valley.
The Shadow Phantom did not immediately answer Shangguan Linlang's question. He remained silent for a while, seemingly deep in thought.
Shangguan Linlang did not urge him either, just quietly gazing at the void, waiting for someone to speak.
After roughly half an hour, Shangguan Linlang finally received an explanation from the Shadow Phantom.
"Shangguan Linlang, indeed, to leave the Lost Valley, you must first unravel the formation of the waterfall. If you were still at your peak, you could break it with your own power alone. However, I see that's rather unlikely now. So, forget about the waterfall."
