Qin Lingyun sat on the back of the Bloodthirsty Lion Beast, flying rapidly through the air. The beast's two pairs of wings also spread open, but it wasn't relying on its wings to fly - they were used for acceleration.

  So after spreading its wings, the speed of the bloodthirsty lion beast accelerated again. In less than half a time, Qin Lingyun had crossed over a vast expanse of crimson mountains and saw a vast crimson lake in the distance.

  "That's the Blood Lake, and you must land on the ground immediately by its side, or else you will be sealed away and erased." The Star Emperor floated amidst the bloody light, with specks of starlight swirling around his body, giving off a dreamy feeling. Qin Lingyun felt that this scene was very familiar.

  "You look very similar to Miao Yi'er, her body is also surrounded by a halo of fine starlight." Qin Lingyun said with a smile.

  Xingdi's eyes narrowed: "She cultivates the Stellar Domination Technique, and I also cultivate the Stellar Domination Technique. Do you think they will be similar?"

  "Aren't you from the Ice Jade Magic Palace? Didn't you cultivate the Ice Jade True Magic Technique? How did it become that you cultivated the Dominating Stars Technique instead?"

  "Think about it, why do others call me the Star Emperor Ancestor? It's because I cultivated the Group Star Domination Technique, and the starry spiritual power that was cultivated. As for the Ice Jade True Devil Technique, of course, this is not a technique I practiced, this is the inherited technique of the master of the Ice Jade Demon Palace, without the ice spirit root talent, it cannot be cultivated." said the Star Emperor.

  "I see." Qin Lingyun nodded and said.

  Although Qin Lingyun understood some of it, she felt a little surprised that Miao Yi'er was practicing the same Qun Xing Ba Shi Jue as Huang Xing Emperor. After thinking for a moment, Qin Lingyun asked: "Could it be that Miao Yi'er is one of your disciples from some generation?"

  Xingdi shook his head and said, "It's impossible. At that time, I didn't have any disciples, and I hadn't taught the Stellar Domination Technique to anyone. However, the Stellar Domination Technique wasn't a technique I created myself, but rather the top technique of the Qiongqiu Great World Central Continent's great sect, the Stellar Gate. I think Miao Yi must have some connection with the Stellar Gate."

  Qin Ling let out a sigh of relief: "As long as it has nothing to do with you, that's good. The humiliation Miao Yi gave me will be repaid sooner or later. If it had something to do with you, I'd be in trouble."

  "Even if you have a relationship with me, don't worry about it. Do whatever you want to do, I'll support you." Xingdi said calmly.

  Qin Lingyun cast a grateful glance at Emperor Chaoxing, and immediately, the bloodthirsty lion fell to the edge of the Blood Lake.

  The edge of the Blood Lake was soft crimson sand, and when stepped on, it left shallow footprints. Qin Lingyu gazed out towards the center of the lake, vaguely seeing several blood-red light pillars, but they were not very clear.

  "When crossing the Blood Lake, one's feet cannot leave the lake surface, and the body must not be dragged into the lake. That is to say, one must step by step walk across the lake surface." said Xingdi.

  "It's not that hard to get there." With Qin Lingyun's current cultivation level, walking on the waves was a very casual thing, so she felt puzzled, because it couldn't be that easy, otherwise entering the fifth floor wouldn't be worth boasting about.

  "Of course, it's not as easy as it looks on the surface. This Blood Lake is formed from a drop of blood from the ancient Blood Demon God, and inside it nurtures extremely powerful Blood Demons. The closer you get to the center of the lake, the stronger the corrosive power of the blood energy becomes. If your mental state is even slightly unstable, you will be corroded by the blood energy and fall into madness, leading to your demise. This trial tests not only one's magical powers but also their Dao heart." said Xing Emperor Dao.

  Qin Lingyun no longer asked Xingdi how he knew these things, everyone has their own secrets that they don't want to reveal, Xingdi was like this, and so was she.

  Qin Lingyun no longer hesitated and tentatively stretched out a foot to tread on the Blood Lake.

  Then stood steadily on the surface of the blood lake, the rippling water underfoot immediately stopped undulating, calm like a smooth mirror.

  Qin Lingyun waited for a short while and found nothing wrong, then stepped step by step towards the center of the Blood Lake.

  As I walked further and further away, the blood-colored light in front of me grew thicker and more intense, and an invisible force was born out of the bloody glow.

  This resistance directly prevented Qin Lingyun from approaching the center of the Blood Lake. At first, Qin Lingyun did not use her spiritual power and relied solely on her self-cultivated Ice Crystal Demon Body to break through this intangible resistance. As time went on, however, the resistance grew stronger, and the effect of the Ice Crystal Demon Body became increasingly smaller.

  Under the lake water, there was no breath of life, only a strong bloody smell. Just as Qin Lingyun continued to move forward, the lake water in front of her suddenly became turbulent, and several blood-red things splashed out from under the lake.

  A blood-red body, with no feet on the lower part, but a curved snake's tail, an upper body that is sturdy and strong, a large mouth from which emerges a snake-like tongue, forked tongues making hissing sounds, small eyes revealing fierce venom, the entire body also being blood-red in color.

  "Beware, those are Blood Devil Heads." Xing Di reminded.

  Qin Lingyun slapped the storage bag, and a orange light flashed by. The Qu Yin Zhong hovered above her head, and before the Blood Demon could pounce on her, the Qu Yin Zhong emitted layer upon layer of tangible blue ripples in all directions.

  The blue ripples kept hitting the four or five Blood Devil heads, and the Blood Devil heads only slightly resisted before being shaken into several segments by the blue ripples, falling into the blood lake and instantly turning into crimson foam.

  "Don't be careless, this is just a low-level Blood Demon Head, its power is not strong. The deeper you go inside, the stronger the Blood Demon Heads become, and there are even evolved Blood Demon Heads that turn into Blood Demon Generals."

  Qin Lingyun carefully enveloped her entire body with the Qu Yin Zhong, a rare defensive and offensive treasure that was among the best in mid-grade spiritual artifacts, whether it was for defense or attack.

  Moreover, when attacking the Blood Demon Head, Qin Lingyun discovered that Qu Yinzhong had a special restraining effect on this evil thought aggregate born from blood energy. Qu Yinzhong was able to produce a killing sound through a special sound wave transformation, which happened to restrain the Blood Demon Head.

  "It's fortunate that the instrument being played is the Qu Yin Bell, if it were one of the other few types, perhaps it wouldn't have this special restraining effect on the Blood Demon Head." Qin Lingyun thought to herself.

  With the sound of Qu Yin's bell, the strength of Xue Mo Tou was suppressed by at least a third. Qin Lingyun urged on the sound of killing and went all the way to kill.

  Qin Lingyun had never met other cultivators and demon beasts, probably because they hadn't found this Blood Lake yet. This world was vast, and even for those with high luck and fortune, it wasn't easy to find the Blood Lake smoothly.

  Even if you accidentally enter the Blood Lake, under the constant attacks of so many blood demon heads, if your strength is slightly inadequate, you will be swallowed by the blood demon head. At that time, both your physical body and your primordial spirit will be swallowed, without even a chance to reincarnate.

  "What about Blood Demon?"

  Right in front of Qin Lingyun, a dark red giant demon head suddenly appeared. It still had the body of a snake and the upper body of a human, but it was wearing dark red armor. Its height was at least twice that of an ordinary blood demon head.

  An ordinary Blood Demon Head is just a bit taller than Qin Lingyu, but this Blood Demon Head is so tall and majestic that Qin Lingyu wonders if it's the Blood Demon General mentioned by Xing Di.

  "This is a Blood Devil General, be careful, the Blood Devil General's IQ is much higher than that of the Blood Devil Head." Xing Di's words confirmed Qin Lingyun's judgment.

  The Blood Demon's head was attacking Qin Lingyun with its sharp claws, although the speed was extremely fast and fierce, but it was chaotic and disorderly, and its ability to dodge was very weak. This Blood Demon held a dark red trident in its hand, and its two bronze bell-like eyes were filled with cruelty and cunning.

  Qin Lingyun didn't say another word, and directly urged the murderous sound wave to attack the Blood Demon General. Just as the blue sound wave was about to hit the Blood Demon General, the figure of this Blood Demon General suddenly sank into the blood lake, causing the murderous sound to strike empty air.

  Qin Lingyun activated the Melodic Bell, forming a semi-transparent cyan shield around her body. Her white jade small shield had already been damaged, and now her defensive magical tools were limited to the Melodic Bell and the pure black dress she wore.

  As expected, Qin Lingyun had just activated the defense shield when she heard a loud crash. The cyan shield shook violently, distorted and deformed, almost shattering. Qin Lingyun's figure flickered as she rapidly moved across the lake surface. This rapid movement would make it difficult for the Blood Demon hiding underwater to determine her exact location for a while.

  In an instant, another dark red light wave came towards Qin Lingyun. Qin Lingyun bent her fingers and pointed, a white light flashed by, and on the surface of the lake, a broken arm appeared.

  A white jade ruler floated in front of Qin Lingyun, with a silver-white aura flickering unsteadily.

  "After being hit by my Nine Underworld Feet, will you still have the ability to fight back?" Qin Lingyun said slowly, her body still moving rapidly. Having been hit by one of the Nine Underworld Feet, Blood Demon might be forced to go all out and use an even stronger method.

  The arm that broke off on the lake surface slowly turned into foam, and the Blood Devil General never appeared again, as if hiding at the bottom of the Blood Lake, not daring to come out again. However, Qin Lingyun didn't think that the Blood Devil General would give up this hatred, and was definitely hiding underneath waiting for a better opportunity to strike.

  Qin Lingyun had no choice but to continue walking forward, waiting for the Blood Demon Emperor to appear.

  On the Blood Lake, the divine sense was greatly suppressed. Even Qin Lingyun's extremely strong divine sense could only reach a little over two meters in front of her, not as far as the eyes could see. However, the divine sense's probing was much more subtle, and many spiritual power fluctuations couldn't be seen with the naked eye. What the divine sense saw was much more real than what the eyes saw.

  As Qin Lingyun advanced gradually, three figures appeared before her eyes.

  "Mo Binglan, Wei Tianwei and Hei Jiaolong, the three of them have actually arrived at Blood Lake already, and have reached this location."

  Mo Binglan and Wei Tianwei were both shrouded in a halo of light on their bodies, and they were now struggling to move forward, while the Black Python was also treading on the surface of the Blood Lake.

  Feeling Qin Lingyun's arrival, Mo Binglan was very surprised and turned her head to glance at him, saying: "I didn't expect your injuries to recover so quickly, and you even found the Blood Lake."

  Mo Binglan had never made a move on her, and she didn't have much hostility towards her either. Since Mo Binglan didn't have any hostile intentions, Qin Lingyun smiled and said, "You arrived even earlier than me."

  Wei Tianwei, who was beside Mo Bingyue, merely let out a cold hum and didn't say anything else, while Hei Jiaolong didn't even turn his head back.
