This was Jia Shuiqing's true purpose in acting: to force the sphere completely out of the Space Sub-layer.
She did not need to attack repeatedly. That one blow was enough—blunt weapons truly could not damage the membrane.
But immediately afterward, another blunt weapon was activated: a massive Grindstone that directly sucked the sphere inside.
Hua Xiezhi was only at the Supreme level, so controlling the Grindstone against the membrane was indeed somewhat strenuous.
Yet her face remained expressionless as she pushed the Heaven and Earth Grinding Disc with all her strength.
The Grinding Disc slowly rotated, crushing the sphere bit by bit.
This method of attack clearly would not produce much effect, yet she continued pouring out spiritual energy as if her life depended on it.
However, her efforts were not entirely ineffective.
Under the Grinding Disc's crushing force, the enormous sphere was flattened considerably, like a balloon squeezed to an extreme degree.
The good news was that the balloon had been somewhat deformed. The bad news was... the force was insufficient, and it was still far from bursting it.
But that was her task, and her objective had already been achieved! The next moment, Qu Jianlei opened his mouth, and a streak of Gray Radiance struck the sphere dead-on.
The Sword Pill's strike instantly tore a sizable opening in the sphere, over two meters long! Yet regrettably, nothing splashed out from the gap. From that point alone, it no longer seemed like a balloon.

Before it had fully hatched, the pressure inside might not be particularly strong. There might be some pressure, but it would not be great.
Qu Jianlei did not mind. His task was simply to
