"Senior Sister, don't you recognize me?"
"It's Junior Brother Ye!"
"I devoured the primordial spirit of that fox!"
To convince his Senior Sister, he recounted several matters concerning the Xuan Tian Sword Sect.
"Junior Brother, that's wonderful!"
"I was so worried!"
"You inexplicably fell unconscious yesterday, and I thought something had happened to you!"
The Senior Sister said with lingering fear.
"Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister. I'm fine!"
"Let's find a way to get out of here as soon as possible!"
Ye Fei clutched his chest, feeling the faint stirrings of the demonic poison.
Judging by his appearance, it was indeed urgent to leave and obtain the Heavenly Demonic Flower to refine the Heavenly Demonic Pill and resolve the demonic poison in his body.
"You're right. We've already wasted a lot of time here. We really can't afford to linger any longer!"
The Senior Sister agreed.
"I'll look for a way to get out!"
Ye Fei immediately began tapping and prodding around the palace's perimeter.
However, after searching the entire area, he found no mechanism for escape.
"Where could it be?"
Ye Fei muttered to himself.
After storing the massive fox pelt into his Qiankun Bag, Ye Fei sat down directly on the white jade chair.
Rumble.
The instant he sat on the chair, a circular disc emerged from beneath it!
A casual action yielding an unexpected result!
Ye Fei hadn't anticipated that this single move would reveal the way out!
As long as they solved the puzzle on this disc, they could leave this place.
"Junior Brother Ye, what do these white jade pieces on it signify?"
The Senior Sister, not far away, had rushed over the moment the disc appeared.
"Senior Sister, based on my understanding of formations, what we need to do now is place these white jade pieces in their correct positions!"
"Only then will the exit appear."
"If we make a mistake, there might even be traps triggered!"
Ye Fei furrowed his brow.
"Then what should we do?"
"As your Senior Sister, I'm completely clueless about formations!"
This was a daunting task for her.
"Senior Sister, you still have me!"
"Don't worry!"
"I will definitely solve this disc and lead you out!"
He paused, then continued,
"However, you'll need to give me some time to carefully figure out the correct solution."
Upon hearing that Ye Fei could solve it, the Senior Sister didn't harbor any doubts.
After all, her junior brother had already provided her with numerous surprises.
Moreover, from her understanding of her junior brother, he was not someone who sought acclaim.
"Alright, I'll leave it to you, Junior Brother. I'll stand guard beside you!"
"Don't rush!"
Fearing that Ye Fei might make a mistake due to haste, the Senior Sister cautioned him.
"Thank you for your kind intentions, Senior Sister. I've noted it!"
Ye Fei replied respectfully.
He then devoted all his attention to the disc.
The disc displayed sixty-four white jade pieces, each with a different pattern.
Furthermore, the patterns on the disc were utterly perplexing.
Even Ye Fei, proficient in formations, was momentarily at a loss.
However, the more difficult the challenge, the more excited Ye Fei became.
He sat down on the ground and began to scrutinize the disc.
The patterns on the disc started to flow within Ye Fei's mind.
After a quarter of an hour, Ye Fei had committed all the lines and patterns on the disc to memory.
Ye Fei began to reconstruct the extremely complex imagery in his mind.
Up, down, left, and right corresponded to Heaven, Earth, Qian, and Kun, didn't they?
Four levels, eight trigrams!
It was as if Ye Fei had received a divine enlightenment, his thoughts instantly unblocked!
Simultaneously, he began to arrange the sixty-four white jade pieces in his mind.
As the last piece of white jade fell into its rightful place, the disc finally became complete!
Despite this, Ye Fei dared not be careless and re-calculated everything in his mind.
After verifying it three times, he finally confirmed the definitive answer!
"Senior Sister, I've found the correct solution!"
"I'll start restoring the white jade pieces on this disc now!"
Ye Fei exclaimed with immense joy.
Meanwhile, the Senior Sister was astonished for quite some time.
How much time had passed!
Her junior brother had already arrived at the correct answer!
He was truly monstrously talented!
However, she was also happy for her junior brother!
After all, having such a genius as her junior brother was a matter of great pride.
"Good, Junior Brother, arrange them quickly. I will guard you here. If something goes wrong, I can sense the danger immediately!"
The Senior Sister said earnestly.
Ye Fei didn't say much and began matching the jade pieces to their correct positions.
Soon, many white jade pieces were arranged on the disc.
Only the very center remained empty.
"Hoo!"
Ye Fei took a deep breath and then swiftly placed the last white jade piece into the vacant spot.
The moment the final piece fell into place, a blinding light erupted from the disc.
Underneath this radiance, both Ye Fei and his Senior Sister instinctively closed their eyes.
Then, on the right side, a stone door, just wide enough for two people to pass through, emerged from the walls.
"The exit was in this damned place!"
The Senior Sister exclaimed.
Subsequently, the two of them exited the palace, one after the other.
"We're finally out!"
"Junior Brother Ye, I'll go and pick the Heavenly Demonic Flower for you right away!"
The Senior Sister said eagerly.
Ye Fei did not refuse and began to expertly survey their surroundings.
Having devoured the primordial spirit of the Five-tailed Heavenly Fox, his divine sense was now incredibly powerful.
He could clearly perceive everything within a hundred miles.
However, this also placed an extremely high demand on his vital energy.
"Junior Brother Ye, let's hurry and leave this place!"
The Senior Sister had already plundered all the herbs around the cold pond.
She stuffed them all into Ye Fei's hands before stopping.
The two then swiftly headed out of the mountain.
It wasn't until deep into the night that they finally returned to the Xuan Tian Sword Sect.
"Senior Sister, we part ways here!"
Upon reaching the Xuan Tian Sword Sect, they went their separate ways, heading towards their respective courtyards.
"See you tomorrow!"
Back in his own courtyard, Ye Fei finally relaxed.
This excursion had been quite fruitful for him.
Just as he was preparing to rest, an intense sensation, almost causing him to uncontrollably spasm, swept over him!
It was the demonic poison!
His internal demonic poison had acted up!
Ye Fei stumbled a few steps, knocking over vases and teapots nearby, causing them to shatter with a clatter.
