Chapter 88: Blood Crystallization, Dangerous Environment
“Brother Ye, give it to me!”

After the battle, Yang Luoqi came to Li Ye's side. He spread out his fair palm, and several small blood-red crystals, as big as the size of a little fingernail, appeared in his hand.

"This is?"

With a gleam in his eyes, staring at the blood-colored spirit, Li Ye could feel the pure blood power in it. It seemed that his own blood was boiling under the pull of this blood power.

"I got the essence of blood and energy from this strange fish."

A hint of complacency flashed across Yang Luoqi's beautiful face. After she refined the enormous power of blood and energy, her perception of blood and energy became sharper than she could imagine. She also sensed the blood-colored spirit hidden in the body of the strange fish inadvertently.

Regardless of the reaction of the body or the trust in Yang Luoqi, Li Ye picked up a blood crystal and swallowed it into his mouth without hesitation. A sickly flush appeared on his face and disappeared in an instant. At this moment, Li Ye clearly felt that the blood and qi power that had been absorbed to saturation in his body had grown a little, and his physical strength became a little stronger.

This is not the growth of the power of qi and blood, but a qualitative growth. It seems that under the influence of this blood-colored crystal, the qi and blood in the body have become purer.

"Where did you get this from!"

There was a hint of excitement in Li Ye's voice, and his eyes lit up as he looked at the blood-colored crystal in Yang Luoqi's hand.

"That's it!"

His eyes focused, and surging blood and energy surged all over Yang Luoqi's body. Under the vast blood and energy, the bodies of the monsters that had originally fallen dead floated up strangely. From their corpses, blood-colored crystals floated into the air and fell into Yang Luoqi's hands.

"Good job!"

The excitement was palpable.

After swallowing a blood-colored crystal, Li Ye knew very well how powerful the effects of these blood-colored crystals were. They could refine the purity of one's own qi and blood, and completely absorb the strange blood energy into the body. This could not be achieved by simple absorption and refining.

Refining blood and qi can make one's own blood more active, but the power of blood and qi is, after all, an external alien force. No matter how much it is integrated, it is not as good as the qi and blood power that one has nurtured and cultivated. There will always be a certain gap between them, just like the difference between a brick house and a high-rise building made of concrete today.

Although the bricks and mud in the brick house fit tightly together, there are still gaps. It is far worse than poured concrete, which is a seamless whole!
Now, the power of the blood crystal can make the blood in the body purer and more integrated into one's body, just like the transformation between a brick house and a high-rise building.

How could Li Ye not be excited?

You know, these blood-colored crystals are condensed from the bodies of strange fish, and there are countless strange fish in this swamp alone. This is just the periphery of the blood-colored space. Who can say that there are no other creatures in its depths, and how huge are the blood-colored crystals contained in those creatures?

Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. With such a huge blood-colored crystal, it is hard to imagine how powerful one's body would become if all of it was absorbed?

"Is this thing as weird as you say? Are you so excited?"

Diao Lingyun looked at Li Ye's excited expression and was very surprised. She took the blood-colored crystal from Yang Luoqi's hand, looked at it carefully, and then swallowed it in one gulp!
"boom!"

In an instant, Diao Lingyun's expression changed and became extremely painful. Her eyes were round, and cold sweat broke out on her face and forehead. She was in great pain, and her breathing was extremely chaotic.

"Sister Diao, you?"

Yang Luoqi never expected that Diao Lingyun would have such a big reaction after swallowing the blood crystal, and his face was filled with worry.

"Don't worry, he'll be fine!"

Li Ye comforted.

The power contained in the blood-colored crystal is not too strong, but it is extremely pure. He and Yang Luoqi can absorb it easily because they have refined enough blood-colored energy in their bodies, but Diao Lingyun has not. When this pure blood-colored energy enters her body, she naturally has to refine it and suffer a bit.

Having said that, there was a hint of anticipation in Li Ye's eyes.

"How about it, do you have any other feelings?"

Seeing that Diao Lingyun's face had calmed down, Li Ye asked anxiously.

"I don't feel anything. It's better to refine my blood and energy. I suffered in vain."

Diao Lingyun's face turned bitter. You know, refining the blood-colored crystal in his body just now had consumed a lot of his spiritual power, but the result was no change at all, which made him somewhat resentful.

"It really has no effect?" Although he had some guesses in his mind, Li Ye was still somewhat disappointed. The blood crystal can purify the blood energy in the body, but you also need to have blood energy in your body to make the blood crystal work. Because he and Yang Luoqi have refined a lot of blood energy in their bodies, they can easily feel the effect of the blood crystal, but Diao Lingyun does not have enough blood energy, so naturally there is no effect!

Originally, I wanted to spread this huge blood-colored crystal among my own forces, but now it seems that there is no possibility at all.

However, another way of thinking about it is that now, of the blood crystals in the entire blood space, only himself and Yang Luoqi can absorb them. To a certain extent, this can be said to be the only one!

After all, if it weren’t for Yang Luoqi, we might not have known that there were blood crystals among these strange fish!
"There's a big guy coming!"

While he was lost in thought, Li Cunxiao's slightly solemn voice woke up Li Ye and the other two.

……

The weak will eat the strong, and the strong will be respected!
In this bloody space, Li Ye truly witnessed the cruel law of the jungle. In the progressive food chain, only the strongest can escape from it, while the weak can only become food for the strong.

In Li Cunxiao's perception, the big guy he mentioned did not make them wait for long. In just a few breaths, it appeared in the sight of the three people. It was an octopus-like creature covered with blood-red scales that broke into the swamp.

Then, dozens of steel whip-like tentacles sprang out of its body and fiercely wrapped around a bloody fish. In the end, the bloody fish was crushed alive. The other bloody fish, instead of resisting, were frightened and panicked, and fled into the swamp lake, sinking deep to the bottom of the lake!

With just a slight pinch, the bloody monster fish's body, which was as hard as steel, was crushed to pieces.

The three of them looked at each other, and they all saw surprise in each other's eyes. They knew the power of the bloody fish. Unless they attacked the vulnerable abdomen, they would not be able to kill them with one blow unless they were a humanoid beast like Li Ye! But this octopus actually killed the bloody fish easily, which shows the strength of this octopus!

But just as the three were shocked by the strength of the bloody octopus, the creature that appeared afterwards broke their cognition.

It was a bloody giant python, its body was as thick as a bucket, its huge snake head was terrifying and ferocious, its bloody tail swept lightly, causing a piercing air explosion sound, and the powerful octopus was swept away by the force of the tail. Then, the giant python's huge body, not at all clumsy, swam towards the octopus, and swallowed the octopus in one gulp with its exaggerated huge mouth!

There is no way to fight back!
The powerful octopus already had the strength of a general scorch, but under the attack of the python, it was as fragile as a strange fish and was defeated in one blow. The powerful and terrifying force made the three people's scalps tingle.

In this blood-red space with an almost complete food chain structure, Li Ye and the other two became more and more cautious in their progress. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they concealed their own auras, for fear that the fluctuations in their own auras would attract more powerful creatures.

During this process, Li Ye and the other two learned more about this bloody space.

In a complete food chain, the strong prey on the weak. After killing the prey, the predator will not eat the prey's flesh and blood, because every blood-colored creature has an extremely amazing recovery speed. Instead, it will specifically look for blood-colored crystals in the prey's body to devour, just like the blood-colored crystals that Li Ye and his three friends found in the blood-colored fish. The stronger the blood-colored creature, the larger the blood-colored crystals in its body, and the more pure the power it contains.

The most crucial thing is that once the blood crystal is swallowed, no matter how powerful the creature is or how amazing its recovery ability is, it will die instantly and there is no chance of survival!

On the outskirts of the bloody space, the monsters in the swamp can be said to be the lowest creatures in the entire space. Whether it is the octopus or the giant python, they are much stronger than them. In addition, there are creatures shaped like cheetahs, lions and tigers. Each of them exudes a powerful aura that is not weaker than that of the giant python.

In terms of the strength of Zhenhun Street, the creatures in the entire space, the weakest of which have the strength of being comparable to or greater than Huo Huo, and the creatures with the strength of Jiao Re are everywhere among them, there are even Big Jiao Res. As for whether there are creatures with stronger levels, the three of them have not seen them, but they cannot confirm whether there are any.

At this moment, they have only reached the middle of the bloody space.

"Tsk tsk, these monsters are so powerful! I wonder how many of those who came in can get out alive!"

Having witnessed the power of the creatures in this space along the way, Diao Lingyun was full of admiration.

Among the many Soul-Suppressing Generals who entered the bloody space, Li Ye and his group could be said to be the last batch. However, in the process, they did not encounter even a single Soul-Suppressing General. This meant that those Soul-Suppressing Generals who entered it either went deeper or were swallowed by the bloody creatures.

Li Ye is not naive enough to think that everyone who enters the Zhenhun Street has reached the depths of space. There are so many powerful monsters wreaking havoc that even if there are people who can enter the depths, they are only a very small number. Most of them will probably become food for these monsters.

"The loss of so many soul-suppressing generals will be enough to give those old guys a headache for a while."

Li Ye's face was full of sarcasm.

The Spirit Controllers had long been dissatisfied with the humans guarding the Soul-Calming Street. Given the attitude of the human Soul-Calming Generals, it was difficult for people to have any good feelings towards them. Li Ye was more or less happy to see the Spirit Controllers causing trouble.

As for those dead Soul-Suppressing Generals, Li Ye did not feel much. It was all because of his inner greed. Without sufficient strength, they wanted to swallow such a big cake. If they did not covet the treasures in the bloody space, how could their lives be in danger!
Fortunately, under the constraints of the Li family, almost no one from their family's Zhenhun Street or the spirit-hosting people came.

You are courting death, who can you blame?
