Li Jieqing, who had used the Blood Heart Disintegration technique to save his life, also felt a suction force pulling him away uncontrollably, drawing away the blood he had transformed into.

However, this suction force was much weaker than that outside, and the further inside the cave one went, the weaker the suction force became.

Within that pool of blood shimmering with spiritual light, a blood heart was beating. Li Jieqing originally wanted to try to force his way out, but in the end he gave up and returned the way he came.

Inside the grotto, Li Jieqing appeared.

Surrounded by the boundless depths of the sea, he could not see what was happening outside. When he took out his bronze mirror and looked out, he could only see pitch blackness.

Only the mournful cries of owls coming from outside the cave reached my ears along with the water, making my head throb with pain.

"Judging from this appearance, there's a malevolent acupoint outside..."

"Spirit Devouring Demon!"

Although he couldn't see anything, Li Jieqing was still able to discern what was happening outside using his blood-seeking technique.

The Devouring Spirit Fiend is also described in the seventy-two types of evil energy recorded in the Wanbaoge. It is specifically designed to absorb the energy of living beings. The more it absorbs, the stronger the Devouring Spirit Fiend becomes, leaving behind a desolate wasteland.

Legend has it that one day, when the Devouring Spirit has consumed all things and its malevolent energy spreads to the heavens, its body will reach its limit and vanish with a roar, giving back to the world. It may become a top-grade spiritual vein, a spiritual root of heaven and earth, ascend to become a protective aura, or transform into various other treasures, turning a great calamity into a great fortune.

The scale of the Devouring Spirit Fiend outside wasn't large enough to connect with heaven and earth.

But seeing that the great demon outside was being tormented by the evil acupoint, Li Jieqing had no intention of facing it.

The Devouring Spirit Fiend exists outside, specifically to absorb the life force of living beings. However, the Heavenly Star Grass in this cave still exists and has not been absorbed for hundreds of years. This is by no means a coincidence.

Not long after, the great demon's mournful cries faded from Li Jieqing's ears.

Sensing through the Blood-Seeking Technique, the owl's blood energy stopped leaking into the ground, and the surviving owl hurriedly left, climbing back to the stone pillar.

"it's over?"

Li Jieqing heard another tremor outside, the sound of the ground closing up.

Meanwhile, new activity also occurred within the Azure Grottoes.

Li Jieqing turned his head and saw that on the unremarkable gray stone platform in the cave, the recesses of the two keys were glowing with a spiritual light—far stronger than before.

The great demon outside is used to raise the Devouring Spirit...

And the Devouring Spirit Fiend was actually used to nourish this stone platform?!

Li Jieqing didn't know who was behind it, but he was greatly shocked and knew that he could not stay here for long.

After consuming a bottle of cultivator's blood, Li Jieqing's body, which had been damaged by the Devouring Spirit Fiend, slowly began to recover.

Outside the grotto.

The sunken ground has indeed been restored, becoming exactly the same as when it arrived.

Li Jieqing stepped on it and found it to be perfectly safe.

"I'm the one who eats others all day long, but today you almost ate me too."

Li Jieqing felt that adventure was indeed not quite suitable for him, but at the same time, staring at the dark ground, he was also very tempted by the evil acupoint below.

He had heard that Foundation Establishment cultivators all practiced the absorption of malevolent energy, and it seemed that they could use various kinds of malevolent energy.

This power of devouring spirits suited his taste perfectly.

"Let's go!"

Li Jieqing formed hand seals and once again used the Blood Heart Disintegration Technique to wrap the Water Dividing Flag and other items. Combined with the Blood Escape Flying Technique, his body suddenly rose upwards.

Although I'm tempted by the Devouring Spirit, there's no need to rush into stroking its whiskers.

This malevolent acupoint is visibly more ferocious than the demonic acupoint on Blood Bamboo Island, and its attacks are terrifying.

Li Jieqing's blood form was pushed out by the pressure of the deep sea, and he used Blood Escape to fly faster than ever before, constantly rising upwards.

On the way, they passed the stone pillar, where the chained owl was licking its wounds. It was unclear where it started licking, but suddenly it sensed a ripple in the water. When it looked up with its lantern-like eyes, Li Jieqing had already risen and escaped the deep sea.

Half a day passed after Li Jieqing left.

Another guest arrived above the owl's head. A pale-faced woman dodged the stone pillar and landed on the ground, not even bothering to approach the cave.

Standing outside the cave, I let my divine sense spread out to explore the scene inside.

The cave was indeed spotless, with all the star grass on the ground having been picked.

However, the stone platform in the center was empty, with no key as expected.

"You little thief!"

"Seven Truths?"

As Li Jieqing left the deep sea and traveled submerged beneath the surface, he suddenly saw several streaks of light flash overhead, hovering in the air before disappearing into the open sea.

These are some of the Seven True Men.

These people's magical power was undisguised, and even Li Jieqing, who saw them in the sea, could not see them.

Seeing that no one came out to sea to shout and fight, Li Jieqing lingered for a while before heading towards Xiaoxin Island as usual.

"...Is Fairy Luxurious Colors dead?"

Outside the Immortal City.

After arriving at Bibo Fishing Ground, Li Jieqing first went to ask the fishing ground manager for advice.

The fact that all seven have gone to the outer sea is quite unusual.

"His fate is unknown. Although the telepathic communication has been successful, the city gates of the Immortal City are still closed," the fish farm manager replied.

"His fate is unknown... that means he's still alive!"

Li Jieqing frowned slightly.

This whole mess is unpredictable. We don't know how Fairy Shecai is doing. As long as she's not dead, it's hard to say whether she'll come to her senses.

Either go back to the Seven Immortal Cities to find him, or you have to go back to the Serpent Sea.

He is truly incompetent.

Now he doesn't dare go back to the Snake Sea.

"How is Cheng Wu?" Li Jieqing asked again.

"He's still alive, and Qi Zhen has specially assigned people to guard him, awaiting his fate."

"Kill him!"

Li Jieqing gave the order decisively.

Although he verbally accused Qi Zhen of being incompetent, he was still quite wary of these rough men.

This time, Cheng Wu was used to lure out Fairy Shecai. Cheng Wu is extremely suspicious. This time, even Master Baozhang will not care. He will definitely skin Cheng Wu alive and investigate him thoroughly.

Let's deal with that person once and for all, to prevent our blood slave identities from being exposed.

The fish farm manager, his eyes glazed over, gave a vague agreement and then went to make the arrangements.

There are still several blood slaves in the Seven Immortal Cities, and it wouldn't be a problem for them to get close to Chengwu—in fact, Chengwu himself is controlled by the Blood Fiend.

After making these arrangements, Li Jieqing took a break to recover the magical power he had expended during his hasty trip to the deep sea. Then, he went to the backyard of the fish farm manager's courtyard, summoned Huang Chong'er, and had it dig a hole to build up its business.

Li Jieqing decided not to return to Youshehai for the time being. After much consideration, he feared that if he hid himself well, he would see some unknown form of Shecai flying overhead again.

If they meet again, She Cai will definitely kill him on the spot.

This is the price to pay for obtaining the Celestial Grass.

Li Jieqing even suspected that when Fairy Shecai was surrounded by the Seven Immortals in the Immortal City, she would most likely have exposed him.

Even if their identity has never been exposed.

But with Qi Zhen in the open and Fairy She Cai in the shadows, their alternations will make it increasingly difficult for him to hide.

Even if the Snake Sea hasn't been exposed yet, it's not safe to say that it's safe.

Li Jieqing originally planned to slowly build his foundation.

But now we must speed things up.

Only by breaking through the foundation stage can one truly possess the ability to protect oneself.
