The Blood Beast's red claws on its feet suddenly extended an inch, tearing towards Li Feiyu's head.
Li Feiyu's face showed no surprise; a yellowish-brown mist spontaneously appeared, blocking the Blood Beast's fierce attack.
The Blood Beast's claws seemed to sink into a quagmire, unable to penetrate further after an inch.
Then, a deep azure lightning arc, as thick as a calf's leg, descended from the sky and struck the Blood Beast's forehead.
It must be said that lightning Spells and Divine Abilities are indeed the bane of Blood Dao, Demonic Path, and Ghost Dao; this level six Blood Beast, with its thick hide and flesh, protected by thick blood crystal scales, was still struck until its skin and flesh split open, leaving it dizzy and disoriented.
Li Feiyu was slightly surprised; this Blood Beast was indeed extraordinary, its defense not weak!
But one strike wasn't enough, so more would come!
After several more thick Yi Wood Azure Lightnings, the Blood Beast finally couldn't endure it and perished under the azure lightning.
Yao'er was once again amazed; the power of this Divine Ability was such that even she would need to use her trump cards to block it.
Ordinary Magic Treasures couldn't withstand it directly, or their spirituality would be greatly damaged, and those that were countered might even be directly destroyed.
Including the roots, Li Feiyu harvested this three-hundred-year-old Bloodred Ganoderma, placed it in a jade box, and then put it into his Storage Pouch.
"A good start, it seems my Opportunity is good," Li Feiyu said, turning with a slight smile.
Yao'er said, "Only someone like Fellow Daoist Li can turn crisis into Opportunity; if it were other Core Formation Cultivators, even if they didn't die, they would be thoroughly battered by this level six Blood Beast, let alone talk of Opportunity."
"Let's keep going."
After taking the Blood Beast's Core, Li Feiyu walked side by side with Yao'er, the two heading deeper into the Blood Mist Forest.
The blood mist that had been dispersed by the azure lightning quickly gathered again, swirling and churning, and their figures disappeared into the mist.
Along the way, Li Feiyu didn't let any Spirit Medicine or Materials he encountered slip by; he even collected a Blood Spirit Fruit sapling, an action that completely stunned Yao'er, who felt Li Feiyu was acting like a wild goose leaving no trace.
They also encountered level seven Blood Beasts, and if Yao'er had been alone, she would never have made it through, possibly even losing her life there.
Even when Li Feiyu didn't use all his trump cards, he had to admit that these level seven Blood Beasts were very troublesome.
Even the Yi Wood Azure Lightning, which countered them, only shattered a few blood crystal scales, while their claws and blood blades penetrated his Profound Yellow Qi.
If he hadn't burst forth in time, releasing the Soul Shocking Needle from his body, the Blood Beast would have almost injured him.
However, he also discovered that the Soul Shocking Needle posed a considerable threat to Blood Beasts.
Li Feiyu felt this was because the Blood Beasts' Divine Souls were weak, making them more susceptible to the Soul Shocking Needle's effects.
If it were any other Cultivator in the late stage Core Formation, they could forcibly suppress this Divine Sense intrusion.
Li Feiyu patted his Storage Pouch, and a black bell flew out, hovering three feet above his head.
Ding-a-ling-ling ~
The black bell emitted circles of colorful, misty light, and its crisp ringing sound, like celestial music, made people involuntarily fall into it.
The Illusion Heart Bell, once activated, would cause all living beings in the vicinity, except for the ancient treasure's owner, to sink into an illusion of desire.
The weaker the Divine Soul, and the stronger the desire, the easier it was to lose control and become lost within it.
Such a special Magic Treasure, though not strong in attack power, was comparable in value to a single top-tier offensive ancient treasure.
If there was a drawback to the Illusion Heart Bell, it was that it didn't distinguish between friend and foe!
The level seven Blood Beast fell into the illusion as Li Feiyu expected, but what he didn't expect was that Yao'er, who was initially at the peak of the Early Stage Core Formation, did the same.
"Logically, a Cultivator of her cultivation should be able to resist for a moment at least; why did she fall so quickly?"
Li Feiyu was puzzled.
He sighed slightly, spread his five fingers, and a burst of suction immediately pulled Yao'er to his side.
He wrapped an arm around her soft waist, then enveloped the surroundings with his Divine Sense, trying his best to block the Illusion Heart Bell's ringing.
Yao'er suddenly awoke and, seeing Li Feiyu holding her, immediately tried to struggle.
At this moment, Li Feiyu said sternly, "I don't know what strong obsession you have that makes you so easily fall into illusions, but prolonged immersion can have a significant impact on your future Dao path."
"If you think you can resist this bell sound, then you are free to resist it yourself."
After hearing Li Feiyu's words, Yao'er finally understood her situation, but this was her first time being so close to a strange man, even with skin-to-skin contact, which made her quite uncomfortable, and two blushes appeared on her jade-like cheeks.
Because the Blood Beast had fallen into an illusion, its own defense was also lowered.
Li Feiyu manipulated a dozen Soul Shocking Needles to attack the Blood Beast, then activated nine Yi Wood Azure Lightnings, combining them into one, completely annihilating it.
After putting away the Illusion Heart Bell, Yao'er saw that Li Feiyu still hadn't removed his hand from her waist, so she broke free herself.
Li Feiyu looked at his hand and smiled slightly at Yao'er, "Feels good."
"You!"
Yao'er was quite helpless about Li Feiyu's rogue behavior, after all, he had ultimately helped her.
No, the Illusion Heart Bell was clearly activated by him, so why am I still defending him?
What a rogue!
All men in this world are the same!
Yao'er grumbled inwardly.
After Li Feiyu separated the Blood Beast's Core and scales, he said, "Don't curse me, let's go."
The Legacy Immortal Cave was deep within the Blood Mist Forest, and the deeper parts were basically the territory of level six and seven Blood Beasts, so the probability of encountering them was very high.
This was why the Star Commerce Alliance had brought an Elder in the late stage Core Formation to escort them.
Half a day later.
"We're here, this is it."
Li Feiyu looked at the small, thirty-zhang wide lake before him, its water blood-red.
He looked slightly stunned and said, "In the lake?"
"It's a wonder you managed to find it; who would dare to easily go down into such a strange lake?"
Yao'er said, "That's usually true, but actually, there are no living creatures in the lake.
At the bottom of the lake is a blood-red grand hall..."
"You lead the way," Li Feiyu said cautiously.
Yao'er pouted, protected herself with spiritual power, and flew directly into the lake.
Li Feiyu followed closely behind.
Before long, they arrived at the entrance of the blood-red grand hall.
Above the hall's door were blood-red ancient characters: Blood God Palace.
The entire grand hall was dark brown, embedded in the rock wall, and covered by a faint white light that could block water flow.
The white light shield had no power, so they easily entered, but there was also a layer of blood-red light screen at the main entrance.
According to Yao'er, this light screen would automatically distinguish the strength of living beings; those below Core Formation or above Core Formation could not enter.
Of course, if one's strength surpassed that of the Blood God Palace's owner, they could naturally force their way through.
The two entered the main sect, passed through a narrow corridor, and entered a large hall.
The hall was very spacious, about a hundred zhang in circumference and nearly thirty zhang high, with twelve giant white jade pillars around it.
Li Feiyu rubbed his chin, wondering in surprise.
This layout felt somewhat like the Void Heaven Palace.
Could it be that the owner of this grand hall was a rival of the Void Heaven Palace's owner, and out of defiance, set up such a Legacy?
Yao'er looked around and then said, "It seems they really haven't arrived here yet."
She pointed to a blood-red jade platform on a one-zhang high raised platform directly in front and said, "That is the Teleportation Jade Platform.
Activating it with spiritual power will teleport you to the trial ground."
"You first, or me first?"
Li Feiyu smiled, "You go first."
Yao'er's expression was calm.
After stepping onto the jade platform, she activated her spiritual power, which surged into the platform below.
With a flash of blood-red light, her entire person disappeared.
Li Feiyu's eyes flickered slightly, and he did the same.
When he reappeared, he was in a stone room with dark black walls all around.
Above, several large luminous pearls emitted a soft glow.
The stone room was quite spacious, no smaller than the previous hall.
Li Feiyu touched the wall; there was a Restriction on it, blocking Divine Sense probing, and it was made of a very rare and hard stone material.
Li Feiyu didn't recognize it, guessing it was some kind of ancient Materials.
