Hmmm, I was at a lake with mine and it got splashed with water but it didn't dive in fully, nothing on mine so far, will try a full dive next time but now I'm scared
Sent from my Mi 11 Ultra.

Well, thats bad luck indeed.... I'd follow the suggestion by @Mark F and use dry rice in a sealed bag over night to remove the last remnants of moisture.
As to the IP68 certification: I am with you that I would have expected that an IP68 rated phone does not develop such an issue in the first place. However it could be that a drop also means some kind of mechanical shock and maybe that water is forced into the phone from the pressure/force of the drop alone - quick search found what Samsung writes on the subject
As an additional comment: I'm not trying to find excuses here (not affiliated by any means with Xiaomi), just explanations

@JensHasselbacher you are playing badge luke, after overheating here it is cooled down by a bath, try to make a call, who knows maybe that will have the effect of drying it out
Completely dry rice or even better small packs of silica gel we help and probably solve the problem

Place it in rice, but IP68 only means water resistant, not waterproof. Also, remove your screen protector.
A foggy screen can also be due water getting under plastic or glass, screen protector. The issue could be as simple as removing the installed screen protector. There may not be anything actually wrong with the phone. In order to save yourself a lot of embarassment, remove the screen protector first. If the situation persists, throw it in rice. If it still persists, take it back, but be forwarned that IP68 merely means water resistant and not water proof. They will not necessarily honor a repair/replacement depending on the circumstances.
