The Water Vortex carried a certain tearing force, enough to shred a weaker being to pieces on the spot.
The Big-Belly Fish was no exception. Right on the spot, it was torn to shreds by the Water Vortex, with only its blood left flowing in the sea.
This was a situation Bai Sha hadn’t anticipated.
What had happened before was far too bizarre, so bizarre that Bai Sha had subconsciously overestimated the Big-Belly Fish. In her perception, the Big-Belly Fish was one with the Eerie strangeness that had occurred.
Casting Water Vortex had only been meant to trap the Big-Belly Fish.
But the Big-Belly Fish had died in a single exchange.
Watching the scene before her, Bai Sha’s expression shifted continuously as she pondered the current situation.
“He was that fragile?”
Yin Sha was also somewhat surprised by this.
After her surprise, Yin Sha asked Bai Sha, “Bai Sha, what do we do now?”
She had never seen this kind of eeriness before. At this moment, she felt somewhat lost and was placing all her hope on Bai Sha.
In her eyes, Bai Sha had always shown herself to be extremely mysterious, possessing deep hidden resources, as if no matter what it was, if Bai Sha put her mind to it, she could definitely accomplish it.
“Let’s try a few more times.” Bai Sha didn’t have any good ideas either.
She had never encountered something like this before. Even though this was her sixth life, she had never run into such a bizarre and strange situation. She simply found it incomprehensible.
Bai Sha could only continue trying to leave Bloodthirsty Territory with Yin Sha.
But no matter what they did next, it was useless. No matter which direction they chose to leave, they would unknowingly return back inside Bloodthirsty Territory.
Upon returning, no more figures of Big-Belly Fish appeared. Only the silent seawater flowed slowly.
Stillness.
Terrifying.
After failing many times, Bai Sha stopped trying.
“Perhaps we can only go deeper into Bloodthirsty Territory to figure out what exactly is going on.”
Bai Sha looked towards the depths of Bloodthirsty Territory and spoke slowly.
There, many Bloodthirsty Bamboo stalks stood tall, their bright red color making the seawater itself seem to have become much eerier, radiating oppression and mystery.
Yin Sha was worried. “Will something happen to us?”
“No, we won’t. Nothing will happen to us.” Bai Sha reassured her.
At worst, I’ll just restart a life… Bai Sha thought to herself.
Although she didn’t want to restart a life for some inexplicable reason, if there was no other choice, then so be it.
If she had to restart a life, then at least in this life, she needed to first figure out the situation unfolding before her eyes. Only by understanding the situation could she know how to deal with it.
“Let’s go.”
Bai Sha took hold of Yin Sha’s pectoral fin and swam towards the depths.
Holding onto Bai Sha’s pectoral fin, Yin Sha’s violently pounding heart gradually calmed down.
She looked at Bai Sha’s profile, amazed by Bai Sha’s calmness.
The eeriness and terror that this place presented made her entire body tremble lightly, made her very soul afraid. Yet after her initial surprise, Bai Sha was actually able to calm down. How did she do it?
‘Compared to Bai Sha, I still have far to go. She has so many, many places worth learning from… Mm, if there’s still an opportunity to learn.’
Yin Sha couldn’t control the many thoughts flooding into her mind.
“Whoosh…”
The water surged. One by one, the Bloodthirsty Bamboo stalks swayed with the flow of the seawater. The bright red leaves growing on them also swayed along. Occasionally, some would detach from the bamboo branches and drift down with the seawater, swaying unsteadily, falling onto the seabed ground. Leaf after leaf, as if splatters of dried blood congealed there, conveying a horrifying feeling.
After passing through a grove of Bloodthirsty Bamboo, Bai Sha heard a bit of noise appearing in the distance.
She pulled Yin Sha, quickening her pace as she rushed over.
When they passed through the Bloodthirsty Bamboo grove, huge shells that looked like buildings appeared in the distance.
The dwellings demon cultivators chose to live in undersea generally fell into three categories. One was undersea caves. Another was inside suitable plants like sea anemones. The last was various types of shells.
Bloodthirsty Territory had collected many shells and stacked them together. Each shell was especially huge, sitting there like individual buildings.
Currently, around these shell buildings, the figures of many demon cultivators were present.
Spike Ghost Fish, Yin Cold Ice Fish, Blade Shrimp, Star River Tortoises, Crescent Moon Sharks… all kinds of demon cultivators were actually gathered in the same place. They seemed to be communicating with each other about something. It looked very lively.
When they saw the scene over there, Bai Sha and Yin Sha couldn’t help exchanging a glance.
“Bai Sha, do you remember what the Big-Belly Fish said when we first arrived?” Yin Sha seemed to recall something.
