Yuan Ming did not rush back to the Biluo Cave overnight. Firstly, it was unsafe to travel at night, and secondly, he didn't know where he was currently located or if there were any dangers around. He decided to wait until dawn to make a decision.

He set up a simple grass shed by the lake and sat down, reflecting on today's encounters.

Yuan Ming had a good habit of carefully reflecting on his shortcomings after experiencing major events.

The reason why he encountered danger multiple times today was because he didn't consider it thoroughly and was unprepared. Although he knew that Qianlu Lake was vast, he didn't think about the possibility of getting lost. There were also compasses and other things in the Biluo Cave. If he had prepared one in advance, he wouldn't have encountered the subsequent troubles.
