She could not forget how, in her previous life, Lei Ke had decided she was useless upon seeing her and tried to kill her outright.
Although in that previous life, after she gained control of Lost Island’s arrays, she used their power to deal with Lei Ke, there was no reason to show mercy in this life.
Looking at the Hell Mud, now in the form of Lei Ke, Bai Sha gently pinched it, and the head dropped off.
With the head dropping off, Lei Ke—who had been staring at Bai Sha in confusion, completely unaware—had his head detach from his body instantly. His headless corpse fell to the ground with a thud.
This event happened so abruptly that before the Profound Mechanism Tortoise beside him even realized what was happening, it was over.
When he saw Lei Ke’s headless body beside him, the Profound Mechanism Tortoise’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted dead away from sheer fright.
“Such a small courage?”
Bai Sha flew over to examine the Profound Mechanism Tortoise.
She remembered that in her previous life, after Lost Island vanished, all the demon cultivators on it were flung into the sea. During that process, the Profound Mechanism Tortoise seemed to be the only one who fainted from fear.
Truly disgraceful.
After silently ridiculing him, Bai Sha ignored the Profound Mechanism Tortoise and went straight to the next region.
The array present in the Coconut Forest Region was an Illusion Array. The illusions would transform into all sorts of paths, deceiving those who entered and making them circle endlessly in place.
That was only the first layer of illusions. A second layer existed, one that slowly eroded the minds of those inside. Once someone stayed long enough, the second layer would erupt, plunging them completely into the illusion. In reality, they would simply stand rooted to the spot, completely motionless.
As soon as Bai Sha entered, she saw a crab-type demon cultivator lying there motionless, clearly trapped deep within an illusion and unable to escape.
Bai Sha ignored the illusions presented to her, flying straight in a particular direction. Occasionally, she would turn left, turn right, or even retreat backward a short distance, seemingly flying in a completely chaotic and haphazard manner.
Yet through this seemingly random flight, it wasn’t long before she left the Coconut Forest Region and entered the next area, the Lake Region.
Bai Sha was already intimately familiar with the arrays on Lost Island and could naturally navigate them with ease.
Of course, even if she didn’t understand the arrays, Bai Sha had another method: employing the Chaotic Star Hand to break them.
Since she had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, her Chaotic Star Hand had also reached the Foundation Establishment level. Breaking arrays of the Foundation Establishment level was naturally no problem.
The arrays on Lost Island might have been of an immensely high level in the distant past, but now they had declined to the Foundation Establishment level.
However, Bai Sha actually wanted these arrays to trap the other demon cultivators, so naturally, she wouldn’t break them so crudely.
She thus advanced along the safe routes, swiftly passing through the Lake Region, the Rocky Pile Region, and the Gloomy Forest Region. Finally, she once again reached the mountain at the very center of Lost Island.
Flying above the mountain, Bai Sha’s gaze grew dazed for a moment.
What presented itself before her eyes was a collection of collapsed buildings. These ruins and broken walls had existed for who knows how long. Vegetation had overgrown upon them, exuding a desolate feeling that tugged at her heart.
When she overlaid this scene with the ones from the Dream of the Heavenly Cycle Array Sect, Bai Sha felt an even deeper pang of sorrow.
She arrived at what should have been the Disciple Accommodation Area. In the Dream Ruins, she had stayed here before. Her Senior Martial Sister, Zhou Yingying, had lived in this very spot. But where was this senior sister now?
Had she become dry bones beneath the rubble?
After lingering for a while before the collapsed buildings, Bai Sha finally left and headed toward the sole structure still standing—a grand Hall.
It was a hall clearly riddled with cracks, yet which had still managed to remain upright through countless ages, refusing to collapse.
Entering the Hall, as Bai Sha expected, it was exactly like when she arrived in her previous life. There were bookshelves filled with numerous formation manuals, a table, and a skeleton slumped over the table. Clutched within the skeleton’s hand was a Token.
Gazing at that skeleton, Bai Sha’s eyes held an especially complex mix of emotions.
She knew this was Gong Yuxiang’s corpse.
However, this was no ordinary skeleton; otherwise, in the previous life, it would not have been able to leave the Storage Artifact on its own and help her in the final moments.
Bai Sha studied the skeleton intently, but could perceive nothing out of the ordinary. She collected it into the Moon Spirit Pearl.
Of course, she didn’t spare any of the other items within the Hall.
Once the Hall was emptied, Bai Sha held the token and sensed the arrays of Lost Island. She began to manipulate them, forcing all the demon cultivators who had entered to be driven outward to the outermost Beach Maze Array.
