Blood python's double claws rose up and tore forward, tearing open a large mouth in the water curtain of the sea. He stretched his body and drilled out of the cave, in the azure seawater, his body rapidly expanded and grew, transforming into a giant python over ten feet long, with blood-red palm-sized scales covering its entire body, a single horn standing upright on its forehead, and lantern-like huge eyes filled with murderous aura.

  "After catching, although can't kill, must be locked up, confiscate all the magic treasures to prevent escape again. Once things are done, hum..." Blood Jiao swung its tail and rushed towards one direction at high speed.

  Even if separated by tens of thousands of miles, the blood python can still feel the mark it has left behind. However, as the distance grows farther and farther away, the sensation of the mark also gradually fades away. Once a certain distance is exceeded, the mark naturally cannot be sensed anymore.

  But that situation obviously won't happen, at least Blood Jiao thinks so. He is extremely fast in the water, and with his original form transformed, he is many times faster. The greatest innate gift of a Jiao-class demon beast in the water is speed. Relying on his own innate gift, even if he was very far away from Qin Lingyun, Blood Jiao will probably catch up to her soon.

  Qin Lingyun flew a distance, thoroughly exhausted before she would rest for a moment. After recovering some energy, she would continue forward again. In her heart, there was always a bad premonition, a kind of instinctive warning that cultivators had towards danger, so she wouldn't truly rest well until she felt safe.

  There are many dangers in the sea, and after traveling tens of thousands of miles through the seawater, I often sense many dangerous demon beasts. Although there aren't any three-stage demon beasts like the Blood Python, there are quite a few two-stage ones. Qin Lingyun's divine sense surpasses that of ordinary Qi Refining Cultivators and is roughly on par with ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators, so she can usually detect the tracks of demon beasts beforehand and avoid them, thus avoiding many dangers.

  But the blood python behind was different, it had locked onto Qin Lingyun's direction and charged through the sea, its massive body stirring up the water and causing a huge commotion. The other sea monsters that sensed the blood python were so frightened that they scattered and fled in all directions, not daring to block its path.

  The Blood Python was a ferocious and powerful top-tier demon beast in the Blood Refining Sea, and when it came to absolute strength and cultivation, those trivial concerns were naturally ignored.

  The distance between Xue Jiao and Qin Lingyun was constantly narrowing, with one pursuing with all her might at an astonishing speed, while the other was hesitant and dodging monsters everywhere, her own speed far inferior, a difference that would only lead to one outcome.

  "It's another second-rate inferior demon beast, Blood Fog Shark." Qin Lingyun couldn't help but sigh.

  All the way, there are more and more blood fog sharks. The blood fog shark is a red-blooded shark that usually gathers in groups, with varying strengths. When encountering an enemy, they attack together, making them difficult to deal with. Moreover, their speed of swimming in the water is very fast. Whenever Qin Lingyun encounters blood fog sharks, she immediately avoids them.

  Qin Lingyun immediately adjusted her direction and moved forward along the other side where there was no Blood Fog Shark, her feet treading on the dark vortex as she broke through the seawater.

  Using a spiritual tool in seawater can still speed up the flight, but due to the resistance of seawater, its speed is at least several levels slower.

  During this period, the consumption of spiritual stones was also very rapid. The constant urging of spiritual power formed a spiritual barrier to block the seawater. In addition, during the flight, it was necessary to continuously consume spiritual power. The Rejuvenating Pellet that could quickly restore spiritual power had been used up long ago. When Qin Lingyun and others were about to run out of spiritual power, they would have to find a hidden place to absorb the spiritual power from the spiritual stones.

  The spirit stones in her storage bag basically came from the magic path old man she killed at first and later the hegemonic mice, these low-grade spirit stones although there were more than three hundred pieces, but they couldn't withstand such consumption, now they are almost used up.

  Once the spiritual stone is used up and the spiritual power is consumed again, the only way to recover the spiritual power is to meditate on one's own. This process is very slow, and for Qin Lingyun's current cultivation level, if her spiritual power is completely depleted, it would take at least a whole day of meditation to naturally recover.

  "What if the blood python catches up?"

  Qin Lingyun was about to fall into a desperate situation when suddenly a large black shadow appeared in front of her eyes.

  "What is this?"

  Qin Lingyun was somewhat surprised, the building that appeared in front of her was a pagoda-shaped structure, covered with moss, seemingly very old. What surprised Qin Lingyun was not the tower itself, but that her divine sense had not sensed it beforehand, even though it was right in front of her. This tower still couldn't be detected by her divine sense, yet it existed.

  "Could it be that this tower is blocking the divine sense's effect?"

  The tall tower is about twenty or thirty zhang high, looking very majestic. The entire tower body is a deep green color, with moss and various aquatic plants covering the top, showing its age.

  Qin Lingyun didn't think much about it, and she didn't have much time to linger now. The farther she could escape, the safer she would be.

  Just as she was about to pass by the high tower, her eyes were suddenly drawn to a structure on the ground. On the left side of the high tower's base, there was a low, altar-like building.

  Qin Lingyun arrived nearby, and her eyes lit up instantly: "This must be a teleportation array, but I don't know where it will transport us to."

  The altar is built with special crystal stones, on which are carved intricate patterns, and there are six recesses in the six directions, exactly similar to the shape of the prismatic spirit stone.

  Qin Lingyun judged that this was a transmission formation through the shape of the altar, but whether it was true or not was unknown. At this time, Qin Lingyun faced a choice: whether to use the spirit stone to activate the formation?

  The spiritual stones in the storage bag are no longer many, and the time that can be supported is naturally not long.

  "There are just six spirit stones left, even if all of them are used to replenish spiritual energy, it's unlikely that they can fly far away. They won't have a fundamental impact on their current situation. If they're used to activate the spell array, maybe they can be transported back to land."

  Qin Lingyun now had a deep longing to return to land, after all humans were not sea creatures and even the body of a cultivator would feel like it was being corroded by the seawater after staying in it for too long.

  Qin Lingyun bit her lip, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.

  "Alright then, let's activate the Law Array and take a gamble!"

  Suddenly opening a law array may encounter unpredictable dangers, but it's better than being caught up by the Blood Python.

  Qin Lingyun walked up to the altar and took out six spirit stones, one by one inserting them into the six recesses.

  A faint blue light slowly lit up on the formation, followed by a series of lights that swirled like silver snakes, converging on Qin Lingyun who was in the center of the formation. A white light flashed, and Qin Lingyun's body eerily disappeared. At the same time, the six spirit stones shattered with a loud crack, and all the spiritual energy dispersed.

  Qin Lingyun's body shook, and her vision quickly turned from black to white. As she slowly appeared, what entered her line of sight were three extremely shocked faces and a gigantic excited spirit beast.

  Those three faces were so familiar, and they turned out to be Mei Han's three friends who had lost contact for a long time. And that spiritual beast was actually the Bloodthirsty Lion Beast.
