Bone-stripping and tendon-pulling? The reborn senior sister becomes the number one cultivator in the

Xie Wanning sneezed. Was it because it was too cold in the cave?

With only half a day left, the exit of the secret realm would be opened, and she needed to find a way to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Xie Wanning took out the stamen of the Spirit Gathering Grass and ate half of it.

"Little Red, protect me." A large amount of spiritual energy will soon gather in the cave. At that time, there may be spirit beasts coming to plunder the spiritual energy. Xie Wanning carefully set up a barrier outside to strengthen the protection.

Before long, spiritual energy from within a five-mile radius converged into the cave, attracting many spirit beasts. Fortunately, the Crimson Flame Bird guarded the outside, ensuring the cave's safety.

……

On the eastern side of the secret realm, the sky was dark and oppressive, shrouding the land.

The silver python darted about like a fish in water, releasing a chilling pressure that rendered all low-level spirit beasts within its range immobile.

The silver python's golden pupils were filled with rage. Its eyes flashed, and all the low-level spirit beasts trembled, their eyes turning golden, like soldiers receiving a command, and all moved closer to the silver python.

The silver python swallowed several spirit beasts with high cultivation levels, and the anger in its eyes was replaced by satisfaction, while the injuries in its body improved.

Next, the silver python and its "army" almost swept across the entire secret realm. All the third and fourth-tier spirit beasts became the silver python's "subjects," and the silver python became the "king" of the secret realm.

It straightened up, glanced at the western part of the secret realm, and then gave the order:

"All spirit beasts, follow me and kill those despicable and shameless cultivators!"

The beasts roared in unison, echoing the silver python's command. Then, the herd marched westward in a mighty procession.

The silver python narrowed its eyes, staring intently in that direction, feeling a mixture of smugness and resentment.

Xie Wanning dares to seriously injure it? Ye Qianqian dares to order it around? Then it will kill all the cultivators and let those two know the consequences of angering it.

It cannot kill Ye Qianqian, and there is also a mental curse binding the silver python.

However, a cunning glint flashed in the silver python's eyes.

Just because it cannot be killed doesn't mean other spirit beasts cannot be killed.

If you dare to take something from it, you must be prepared to pay with your life!

However, the thought that Ye Qianqian could say without any emotion, "Lord Silver Python, I know how to find Xie Wanning. As long as you kill all the Qingyun Sect disciples in the secret realm, Xie Wanning will definitely appear," and then pointing out the direction where the Qingyun Sect disciples were, made her uneasy.

At that moment, the silver python deeply felt that Ye Qianqian was of the same kind as it.

Interesting. Who would have thought that there would be such a ruthless monster in a legitimate sect?

……

"We'll make a judgment when Senior Sister returns," Song Huai'an said before leaving.

Ye Qianqian fell to the ground, and many disciples came to help her up.

"Junior Sister Ye, don't worry, Senior Brother Song will definitely uphold justice for you."

"I never expected that my usually serious and responsible senior sister would be so selfish."

“Indiscriminate killing of fellow disciples is a serious crime, and Xie Wanning cannot escape it.”

……

While comforting Ye Qianqian, everyone cursed Xie Wanning. Ye Qianqian's words were so realistic that everyone believed them to some extent. They both hated and feared Xie Wanning for her two-faced and ruthless nature.

"Something's wrong, Senior Brother Song! We've spotted a silver python leading countless spirit beasts heading our way!" The disciples guarding the outer perimeter rushed back to report, their hair disheveled, clearly having returned at an extremely fast pace.

"What!" Song Huai'an, who was lost in thought, was suddenly startled.

A silver python? Isn't that just a sixth-tier silver python?

How could it have come here? The area is surrounded by a barrier, using a sixth-grade concealment tent given to it by the team leader. Only those with Nascent Soul cultivation can detect it.

The Silver Python, at most, possesses the strength of the peak Golden Core stage.

Unless someone informs on them.

Of those who had seen the silver python, everyone except the eldest sister had returned.

Song Huai'an broke out in a cold sweat without realizing it. He dared not think about it further, but a voice inside his head kept telling him:

Could it be that the eldest sister knew her junior sister would tell them the truth upon her return, and fearing they would steal the treasure, she betrayed them? Could it be that the eldest sister was on the verge of death by the silver python, and resorted to this desperate measure to survive? Could it be that the eldest sister was being chased by the silver python and was seeking help, which is why she rushed towards their location?

Various speculations confused Song Huai'an so much that he didn't even realize he had already taken Ye Qianqian's nonsense as truth and imagined Xie Wanning as an utterly wicked person. Xie Wanning had never been to the camp before, so how could she know its location?

"All array cultivators, form a defensive array! All alchemists, take out your pills! All weapon cultivators, take out your magical artifacts to provide support! Injured cultivators who cannot fight, go to the rear to recuperate! All sword cultivators and body cultivators who can still fight, follow me on this expedition!" Song Huai'an flew high into the sky on his sword and issued the order.

Everyone's lives are in his hands now; we can't think about it anymore.

"Yes!" The resounding response was earth-shattering and awe-inspiring.

Song Huai'an led his disciples into the air, full of fighting spirit, ready to fight.

But then, a dark, dense herd of beasts covered the land. Everywhere one looked, there were spirit beasts with golden eyes. They surged in like a flood, inundating the entire land. A huge silver python towered into the clouds, its golden eyes looking down on everyone.

Some timid cultivators couldn't even hold their swords properly, trembling on the spot out of instinct.

There were too many, too many third and fourth-tier spirit beasts. Their footsteps thundered, their momentum was overwhelming, and they followed the silver python step by step. The immense pressure of the sixth-tier silver python came down, and many low-level cultivators could not resist it.

Most of the disciples were only at the Qi Refining stage; how could they withstand such immense pressure? They coughed up blood, and their internal organs were in excruciating pain.

Song Huai'an could only send the injured disciples back first, while he led a few Foundation Establishment stage disciples to fight against an invincible enemy.

……

"It's bad, Master! The Silver Python has led many spirit beasts from the secret realm westward, which seems to be where the Qingyun Sect disciples are located," the Crimson Flame Bird hurriedly warned.

It had noticed the silver python seemed to be moving around, but wasn't sure what it was doing. It was solely focused on protecting Xie Wanning and didn't bother to observe the python's actions.

Unexpectedly, the silver python was trying to control other spirit beasts to attack the Qingyun Sect disciples.

"What!" Xie Wanning was shocked. She had previously thought that after the explosive talisman injured the silver python, it would be enough to hold out until the secret realm opened, at which point everyone would be safe.

However, she overlooked the fact that the silver python had the ability to control both humans and beasts.

"Let's go to the western part of the secret realm." Xie Wanning packed her things, took out her sword, and prepared to fly on it.

"Owner……"

"I understand, I will cherish my life." Xie Wanning smiled, reassuring the Crimson Flame Bird.

After saying that, the man and the bird flew off to the west.

……

"Senior Brother Song, all the magical artifacts are damaged!"

"Second Senior Brother, we're running out of pills!"

"The barrier is about to give way!"

"Everyone, channel your spiritual energy into the barrier! You must hold on!"

Song Huai'an shouted in a hoarse voice.

Half an hour ago, he and his disciples tried to resist the beast horde outside, but after killing only a dozen or so third-tier spirit beasts, they were all injured and had to return to the formation to defend themselves.

However, the beasts' attacks were too intense and frequent. Although they used various magical artifacts and swords to attack, they could not stop the beasts' fierce offensive.

Now, their only hope lies in the defensive magic array; otherwise, they will be completely wiped out.

The silver python stared at the resisting cultivator with great interest, as if watching squeaking rats in a cage making a futile and laborious resistance.

The silver python sent out low-level spirit beasts as the vanguard, intending to torment these cultivators for as long as possible.

Seeing their desperate expressions reminded the python of the cultivators who had died tragically at its hands a hundred years ago, a feeling that truly pleased the python.

"The barrier has shattered!" A desperate and piercing sound rang in everyone's ears.
