The Mist is a strange area, which technically is not on the map. In order to progress the Mists area, you need to be able to beat the boss at the end of the sequence. Here’s how to get through the Mists in Hollow Knight Silksong.

To escape the Mists, players need to use the Needlevin on the butterflies. These light bugs will eventually react to you after a second or so of playing. They will then fly off in a direct.
You will need to do this on a few different maps before you can reach a checkpoint flat level. After that, do it another one or two times, and you will eventually make your way into the BileWater’s Organ Exhaust area.
When you reach the Organ Exhaust, enter the building, and then get the bench from the left side double jump area. Now, you need to to go through the other vent areas and avoid the air obstacles and get yourself around.
When you’re done getting the flea, you now need to go further up the Exhaust with more air obstacles to dodge. Following up and going left will take you to an Organ room where you fill fight a boss called 
Phantom.

Phantom is a very agile boss which throws her needle towards you. She then drags herself towards it. She does the odd attack, but her special theme is a parry. She will go into a defensive stance, and if you hit it, she will start to combo you. As she enrages more and more, she will starts diving around to slam. Keep moving to avoid being hit and trade when she stops. Eventually, she’ll be defeated and you’ll get her new skill. Moreso, she will then be dead, and the Mists will fade away. You can now move onto Act 2.
