Although Ye Sisi was prepared, she still couldn't help but shiver when she was drenched in thick blood.
Even though she held her breath, the pungent, fishy stench still filled her mind.
Ignoring everything else, she braved the filth and pressure of the blood river, found her place, and began by moving aside the skeletons that were about to be submerged by the blood river.
Then she quickly began to carve runes on the ground without leaving a trace, and even though the blood had already reached her waist, she continued to carve runes.
After doing all that, she felt a metallic taste in her throat. Forcibly using the evil energy here to set up the array still caused a backlash, but she succeeded.
She quickly retreated from the area where the Blood River was tilting. Seeing that Ye Shubai, Su Jiuli, and Sima Rushuang had all retreated, she called out loudly, "Fourth Senior Brother, begin."
Upon hearing the sound, Ye Shubai's fingers flew into hand seals, and Ye Sisi's blood-soaked fingers also began to move rapidly.
The two shouted simultaneously across the mountain of bones, "Reversal of Heaven and Earth!"
No sooner had she shouted than Ye Sisi coughed up a mouthful of blood, and Ye Shubai was in no better shape.
The power of the evil aura was too violent and clashed with their own spiritual energy. The fact that the two of them only coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood was because they had strong Nascent Soul physiques; otherwise, the price they paid would have been much higher.
Fortunately, the result was good. The disc, which had been continuously spewing blood, suddenly began to rotate counterclockwise. Although it was rotating very slowly, a cracking sound could be heard in the air.
The ever-flowing river of blood seemed to be paused instantly.
The eerie blood-red disc also disintegrated with a series of cracking sounds.
Ye Sisi's lips curled up. "Hmph, a bunch of sneaky, stinking rats, always doing shady things. This is the price they pay."
Just as she was feeling smug, the shattered crimson runes in mid-air began to coalesce again.
Ye Sisi frowned, and saw the blood-red runes in mid-air slowly condense into a snake demon with a human head and a snake body.
The snake demon had only one pair of eyes on its face. Although they were somewhat blurry, everyone present could clearly feel the killing intent in those eyes.
Its eerie eyes slowly rotated, scanning each person before finally settling on Ye Shubai.
Ye Shubai stared back at it without fear, even curling her lips in a provocative smile.
The monster seemed oblivious to Ye Shubai's provocation, continuing to turn its face until it finally fixed on Ye Sisi.
Ye Sisi smiled slightly, but her smile lacked its usual sweetness and charm, appearing rather ferocious against the backdrop of blood.
She raised her right hand, firmly pointing her middle finger, and then, under the monster's gaze, used all her strength to smash a dark ball towards its eye.
The black sphere did not explode in mid-air, but disappeared into this space through the monster's right eye, which was a somewhat unstable spatial passage.
Ye Sisi waved her hand dismissively: "You stinky rat, go back and receive the baptism of heavenly tribulation."
The moment she finished speaking, the snake demon in mid-air began to dissipate, but its face, which only had eyes, became twisted and ferocious.
Ye Sisi pursed her lips. This level of skill wasn't even enough to scare her back in kindergarten.
Apart from Su Jiuli and Ye Shubai, everyone stared blankly at the incredibly handsome Ye Sisi, even though they knew that this girl was a ruthless person who dared to use the laws to drag her enemies down with her.
But seeing her in person at this moment, I still think she's so cool. That aura she just exuded was probably at least at the Void Refinement stage, and she could still provoke people without changing her expression.
Ignoring everyone's gaze, Ye Sisi looked down at her disheveled state, frowned in disgust, and then walked towards the bone mountain. Helping her seniors move was the priority right now.
The others also realized what was happening and quickly began digging trenches with their respective weapons; they needed to get rid of so much blood as soon as possible.
Fortunately, none of them here are weaklings, nor are there any scoundrels who deliberately pick fights; otherwise, Ye Sisi might have lost her temper and started hitting someone.
She sighed quietly, feeling inexplicably disappointed. Wasn't it supposed to be that when you go out to explore secret realms or train, you'd usually encounter a few exceptional characters, and then the protagonist would get a slap in the face?
Is it because she's not the main character that she doesn't run into when she goes out?
Lost in thought, Ye Sisi carried the blood-stained skeleton toward a clean place.
She gently placed the skeleton on the ground, sighed as she looked at the bloodstains on it, and thought, "If only I had spiritual power, I could help my seniors take a proper bath."
Although conditions are limited, it is still necessary to wipe it gently with water, otherwise the blood and qi will be too strong and will have a great impact on the remnants attached to it.
The group of twelve moved extremely quickly, and the first mountain of bones was soon emptied.
Just as everyone was preparing to move the second bone mountain, Ye Shubai walked to the empty spot, squatted down, and closed his eyes, as if listening to something.
Ye Sisi noticed his actions, walked over and squatted down beside him, asking curiously, "Fourth Senior Brother, what are you doing?"
Ye Shubai suddenly opened his eyes and pointed to the void in front of him, saying, "There's movement here."
Hearing this, everyone curiously walked over, holding their breath and pricking up their ears, wanting to hear what was happening.
After listening for a while, Ye Sisi realized she hadn't heard anything, so she asked curiously, "Fourth Senior Brother, what did you hear?"
The others, like Ye Sisi, hadn't heard anything, so they all stared intently at Ye Shubai.
Although there's still a lot of work to be done, if we can find clues to get out, everyone will be more motivated to work.
“I just heard footsteps. This was probably a weak point in the space, but then it disappeared.”
Although everyone was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, having a clue was better than having none.
Ye Sisi patted Ye Shubai on the shoulder and said, "Let's get to work first."
Ye Shubai nodded, stood up, and resumed his busy moving work.
After moving all the bones, Ye Sisi felt as if her arms were about to break.
Since she started cultivating, she hadn't felt this kind of pure physical exhaustion in a long time. Sigh, another day of longing for spiritual energy.
But there is something more important to do now.
"Fourth Senior Brother, how many sets of clothes do you have left?"
"What's wrong? I only have two sets left, one for me and one for my senior brother."
"Please bear with me and share a set of clothes with me. I'm so dirty I can't stand it anymore. I need to wash up."
"What about your own? I saw you had installed several sets."
Ye Sisi glanced around and whispered, "They gave it away."
