Su Ye had slain the Sewn Corpse with unstoppable might.
For a brief mont, the courtyard was quiet again.
"Thank you for saving my life, Mr. Su..."
Bai Xiuying’s fair face was as pale as snow, her breathing unsteady.
But she still ca forward to bow and offer her thanks imdiately.
Gazing at Su Ye, an inexplicable look appeared in her eyes.
As a Canghai True Inheritor, Bai Xiuying had been known as a prodigy since childhood.
When she reached Foundation Establishnt, Su Ye was still an unknown Qi Refining cultivator.
And in just over a decade,
this once-obscure Qi Refining cultivator had advanced by leaps and bounds, breaking through two major barriers!
He had beco a Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator, just like her!
Now, he had even revealed such astonishing attainnts in Body Refining...
’If I recall correctly, Mr. Su isn’t even fifty, is he?’
’At his age, with such combat strength... as long as he doesn’t et an untily end, reaching the Core Formation realm is a real possibility...’
At this thought, the way Bai Xiuying looked at Su Ye changed yet again.
’A talent like this... I must spare no expense to win him over...’
...
Next, the group found a clean room.
Bai Xiuying borrowed so healing and energy-restoring pills from Su Ye to recover her Magical Power and heal her injuries.
She was just unlucky.
Normally, as a Canghai True Inheritor, Bai Xiuying would never have been short on dicinal pills.
However, this ti she had just been relaxing in Weiyuan Immortal City... which she considered a ’safe zone’.
So naturally, she hadn’t seen the need to deliberately carry pills with her.
It was like asking: would a normal person carry their entire dicine cabinet with them just to go shopping?
At most... they might bring a couple of bandages?
As a result, after falling into this ’world’ and fighting the Sewn Corpse,
her supply of pills was quickly depleted.
This had left her in a very awkward position.
Fortunately, Su Ye had co prepared, and his supply of various pills was more than sufficient.
Bai Xiuying swallowed the pills and sat down to ditate and recover.
...
anwhile,
Su Ye began to explore the Zhong Mansion.
He was very curious about this ’world’.
’What is this... an inner world? A reverse world?’
Su Ye strolled leisurely, his gaze and Divine Sense scanning his surroundings.
He carefully observed this ’Zhong Mansion’, which was much more dilapidated than the one in the real world.
anwhile, Zhong Qi and Zhou Liangcai followed him closely, nervously sticking to his side.
Even after the Sewn Corpse’s death, the two were still terrified.
They only felt a sliver of safety when they were near Su Ye.
Su Ye didn’t mind. It was like he was walking a pair of cats.
「A quarter-hour later.」
Through his observations, Su Ye discovered that the world outside this ’Zhong Mansion’ was shrouded in a thick darkness and mist.
It was as if it were an independent secret realm!
And in this space, which Su Ye nad the ’Reverse World’, there were certain natural restrictions!
First, it restricted Magical Power recovery.
Within the Reverse World, it was nearly impossible for cultivators to naturally recover Magical Power by absorbing the free-roaming Spiritual Qi in the environnt!
Second, it prohibited flight.
Even Foundation Establishnt cultivators could only float three feet off the ground at a low altitude.
’Interesting... A natural Array? But how could it be so coincidentally targeted at cultivators?’
Su Ye mused, lost in thought.
He sensed the faint traces of a conspiracy.
Just then, Zhong Qi walked up and said in a low voice,
"Mr. Su, are you looking for a way out?"
"Could I... share my thoughts?"
"A way out?" Su Ye raised an eyebrow.
To be honest, he wasn’t in a hurry.
His earlier research and attempts had already confird it.
The distinction between this ’Reverse World’ and the real world was a matter of soul frequency.
With his [Soul-Tracking Grasp], Su Ye had a unique advantage in this regard.
He believed that with a simple attempt, leaving this ’Reverse World’ wouldn’t be difficult for him.
With this confidence, Su Ye naturally wasn’t in a rush.
On the contrary, he was more interested in gaining a deeper understanding of this ’Reverse World’.
After all, the monster corpses from the Reverse World could advance his cultivation and that of the Ghostly Flood Dragon.
Besides...
’With sothing like this appearing in its own jurisdiction, Weiyuan Immortal City must be in a panic, right?’
’Especially since this world suppresses Magical Power recovery, which benefits a Body Cultivator like ...’
Su Ye mused to himself.
As a major trade hub, Weiyuan Immortal City definitely had plenty of good things.
For example: Tier-3 spirit wood and spirit iron—strategic resources that are difficult to acquire in large quantities—and pills that could help a Late-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator advance their Magical Power...
’Perhaps I can reap many benefits from this crisis...’
Under these circumstances, Su Ye naturally wanted to stay a while longer to gather intelligence and increase his bargaining power.
However, he didn’t mind hearing Zhong Qi’s thoughts either.
Especially since, according to Zhou Liangcai,
Zhong Qi’s blood could apparently suppress the monsters of the Reverse World.
And before, this young Patriarch of the Zhong Family had already demonstrated an extraordinary ’spirit vision’ talent.
Plus, he was a descendant of Mr. Zhong.
Therefore, Su Ye regarded Zhong Qi with so importance.
He nodded noncommittally.
"Let’s hear it."
Zhong Qi said, "Based on my observations, this should be so kind of natural Array..."
"And the way out is..." Zhong Qi spoke with confidence and eloquence.
Listening to him, Su Ye’s heart stirred with so surprise.
Many of Zhong Qi’s insights coincided perfectly with his own theories!
And Su Ye was a Tier-2 Array Master, a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, and even had the advantage of his [Soul-Tracking Grasp]...
But Zhong Qi... it seed he had figured it all out based purely on his talent for the dao of arrays.
’This kid is quite the talent...’ Su Ye mused.
For so reason, he felt that Zhong Qi had the face of soone who would be perfect for working for him...
...
Zhong Qi’s hypothesis piqued Su Ye’s interest.
According to his design, by setting up an Array, they could open the main gate and enter or exit the ’Reverse World’ at will!
Su Ye made so calculations, then supplented and corrected the design...
And surprisingly, it actually seed quite feasible.
"Let’s give it a try." Su Ye was tempted.
If they could really co and go from the ’Reverse World’ as they pleased,
then there was no need to stay any longer!
Soon, Su Ye finished inscribing the Array Plate, gathered everyone, and went to the main gate of the Zhong Mansion.
HUM!
The Array Plate lit up.
The black mist shrouding the main gate of the Zhong Mansion slowly dissipated.
On the other side of the gate, a translucent scene of the real world appeared!
"It’s working?!" Su Ye’s eyes flickered.
However, as the black mist receded, more of the ’Reverse World’ ca into view, causing everyone’s pupils to shrink!
Outside the Zhong Mansion, on the dilapidated streets of the ’Reverse World’, a single glance revealed over a thousand pale monsters!
"How can there be... so many?" Bai Xiuying was stunned.
"Let’s go! Now!" Su Ye said calmly.
Because now, with the black mist gone, the Formless Demons had also discovered them!
"ROAR!"
The pale monsters charged crazily toward Su Ye and the others.
Su Ye’s Frost Thorn Spear danced through the air, slaying dozens of the approaching Formless Demons. He cleared an open space and placed their corpses into his Storage Ring.
’They’re a bit weaker, but definitely no less than Late-stage Qi Refining cultivators... And with these numbers...’
"We’ll leave first and talk later." Su Ye’s brow twitched.
There were bound to be even more terrifying monsters lurking in the black mist!
Imdiately after, he led the other three through the gateway and into the real world!
Just before leaving, Su Ye turned his head and stared deep into the black mist.
’That’s...’
He seed to have seen sothing, and his pupils constricted.
With no ti for further thought, Su Ye stepped through the gateway.
