Shu Jianyue nodded without hesitation. She had many of her previous artifact refining experiments in her space. Although they weren't top-notch spiritual artifacts, they weren't bad either.

The lowest grade is a Xuan-level spiritual weapon.

Seeing that she had agreed, Mo Yanfu put away the magical artifact, glanced at Fu Natong, and then got up to lead them to the exit.

"Wait a minute, young lady, where's my spirit boat?" He certainly couldn't go, but he couldn't forget the spirit boat he had been thinking about for so long.

"What spirit boat?" Mo Yanfu turned to look at them.

Fu Natong then recounted what had happened, and Mo Yanfu immediately felt that he had asked for too little and had suffered a huge loss.

"Miss, how about you give me another one?"

Besides her own ship, Shu Jianyue only had the one she helped Fu Natong refine. Yu'er and Xi Xi hadn't reached the level of teleportation yet, so she naturally couldn't give it to them.

Before she could shake her head, Chong Jiu nodded, "Okay."

"Huh?" Shu Jianyue glared at him.

Chong Jiu squeezed her hand, indicating that she should first give the Demon Yan Fuling Boat.

Shu Jianyue snorted and took out the two spirit boats.

Mo Yanfu was the first to take a liking to the spirit boat that had been crafted by the Fu Tong, and he was the first to put the spirit boat away.

“Hey, that ship is mine, I provided the materials.” Fu Natong immediately jumped up.

Mo Yanfu seemed not to have heard him and turned to leave. Only after the man had disappeared from sight did he say, "Hey, it's embarrassing that I, a demon, am worse at it than you. Don't worry, I'll find a way to make it up to you."

As for how to compensate, that's up to him to decide.

Mo Yanfu led everyone to the exit and looked at the stone door, saying, "Only those with strong mental power can open this door. I can only hold out for a breath at most. Who will go out first and get ready?"

Shu Jianyue looked at the door and shook her head, saying, "We don't need you, we can do it ourselves."

As he spoke, with a click, the door slowly opened a crack.

As the door opened wider and wider until it was wide enough for two people to pass through, Mo Yanfu looked at them with surprise.

"Who among you has such strong mental power?"

Shu Jianyue smiled, let the others go first, then waved to him and said, "Until we meet again."

Mo Yanfu didn't come to his senses for a while after the door closed. "Luckily I didn't argue, or I would have been in big trouble."

He glanced at the Soul-Softening Pill in his hand, then swallowed it on the spot and began his breakthrough.

As Shu Jianyue and the others exited the gate, a blinding light illuminated the area, and they found themselves standing on the edge of a chasm, as if a gust of wind could blow them back into the Demon Realm.

Chong Jiu led Yu Chuan and Yan Xi a few steps forward, avoiding the wind.

Shu Jianyue took a few steps but saw that Tiankong was standing motionless on the edge of the cliff, his head bowed and his body trembling.

"Sky?"

Zi Yu suddenly rushed over, "Master, something's wrong with the Venerable One. The spiritual energy around him is surging erratically."

Just as Shu Jianyue was about to approach, the sky suddenly returned to its original shape, pounded the ground, glanced at Shu Jianyue, and then darted to the side.

"Ziyu, protect them well." Shu Jianyue immediately chased after them.

Something was definitely off about the sky; that glance just now seemed to be something it was suppressing.

He was unusually quiet in the Demon Realm before, unlike his usual behavior in Floating Dust Mountain. I originally thought it was because the atmosphere in the Demon Realm had calmed him down, but now I'm afraid that's not the case.

Could it be a lingering effect from before?

Shu Jianyue chased for quite a while before catching up. At that moment, the sky was punching and kicking a giant rock, roaring as it did so.

A tiger-toothed beast was hiding on the ground nearby, its head smashed.

Shu Jianyue glanced at his talisman and saw that there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. But upon closer inspection, she noticed a thin, pink thread wrapped around his body.

Suddenly, the sky turned to look at her, its eyes bloodshot and filled with murderous intent.

Before Shu Jianyue could react, he pounced on her.

Shu Jianyue dodged away and snapped, "Sky, wake up."

Without pausing for a moment, he took out the Vajra Greatsword she had given him and slashed at her.

Shu Jianyue frowned and kept avoiding it, trying to find a way to remove the thread.

Thinking of Chong Jiu, who knew a lot about many things, she transmitted her voice to him: "Chong Jiu, a pink line has appeared on the shadow in the sky. What does that mean?"

Chong Jiu quickly answered her question, his tone slightly urgent, "[Move his contract image into the Qiankun Bowl, and use the bowl to purify that red thread. That red thread should be the severing curse that Le Ya planted in his body.]"

If the color changes from pink to deep red, the image within your consciousness will self-destruct.

[Your consciousness will be injured. At best, your cultivation will regress to zero, rendering you unable to cultivate again. At worst, you will become mentally impaired and die. Even if you are reincarnated, you will be mentally impaired in every lifetime.]

Chong Jiu's voice grew colder and colder as he spoke, even carrying a murderous intent.

If Le Ya weren't no longer in this world, Shu Jianyue would have wanted to drag her out and torture her all over again.

While dodging the attacks from the sky, Shu Jianyue tried to move his symbol into the Qiankun Bowl.

But as soon as Qi Ying moved, the sky howled loudly.

[The moxibustion is too strong; it causes Qi Ying a lot of pain whenever I move it. If I move Qi Ying into the Qiankun Bowl, will it cause him great harm?]

[If you don't move, you'll face the possibility of becoming mentally impaired or even dying in the future, and his self-destruction won't be any better.] Chong Jiu naturally hoped she would move as soon as possible, after all, in his eyes, although the sky was a divine beast, it was nothing special.
