The lake surface may appear calm, but the chilling power emanating from its waters should not be underestimated.

Countless restless souls seemed to slumber beneath the water, and every touch of spiritual energy felt like stirring up blood and fire from millions of years ago.

Li Guang remained motionless for half an hour before regaining her senses. Perhaps she was rational enough that the illusion did not trap her.

She didn't see Shen Ci nearby, and without further hesitation, she added several layers of defense to herself and jumped into the water.

The further downstream you go, the more resistance you feel.

Not only was she being eroded by the chilling power, but also by countless blurry figures—armored soldiers and sword-wielding cultivators—who fought and roared in the waves, only to dissipate in an instant, turning into bubbles.

The battles on the battlefield are so realistic, the murderous aura so intense, that if you get caught up in it, it's dangerous.

She remained calm, brushed aside the obstructing water plants, and continued to sink.

Not all souls can find peace. Li Guang encountered the vengeful sharks underwater. They resembled fish skeletons stripped of their flesh and blood, with ghostly flames burning in their eye sockets. Upon seeing someone intrude, they immediately roared and pounced.

Perhaps due to the passage of time, the strength of the Vengeful Shark had diminished. With a flick of her wrist, she sent out several thin silver threads that precisely wrapped around the Vengeful Shark's skeleton, turning it to ashes with a gentle pull. However, the sheer number of Vengeful Sharks and the prolonged duration of the encounter also caused her to tire.

After swimming for most of the hour, we reached the depths and indeed saw a water-blue building with faded mermaid runes carved on its top.

Her gaze swept across the silt at the bottom of the lake, where rusty armor and broken weapons lay scattered, clearly indicating a fierce battle had taken place.

Looking around, there were palaces everywhere, but they were all tightly closed.

She took out the key, and the heavy main hall door opened automatically, releasing an even stronger wave of resentment.

She walked in cautiously.

On the stone platform in the center of the hall, a bead the size of a fist floats, pure white and radiating a soft light.

The stone palace suddenly shook violently, the ground cracked open, and a giant claw covered in black scales burst out from the ground and slammed towards her!

"It's a Bone Shark!" Without thinking, she conjured an ice spike from her fingertip and shot it towards the Bone Shark King's eyes, while simultaneously rushing towards the stone platform.

Those beads look like good stuff, of course I have to get them.

It was this five-meter-long bony shark that kept bothering her, and she managed to get rid of it by making a feint.

"Got it!" The moment she grasped the Moon Soul Pearl, the pearl suddenly burst forth with a dazzling light, illuminating the entire hall, and the Bone Shark King automatically dispersed.

Just then, a dark figure darted out from the door and attacked her directly, trying to snatch the bead.

It is Shen Ci.

He was still wearing that gray cloth robe, but now there were several deep, bone-revealing wounds on the robe, and black blood had congealed on the cloth like dried ink.

"Fellow Daoist Qingli, you've finally come. I need this. Give it to me; we can discuss any conditions."

"No, you should look for something else. This is mine."

"Then please enlighten me."

Li Guang didn't underestimate him, but she was no pushover either, and the two fought for half an hour.

They fought to the death for half an hour without a clear winner, and their relationship had completely broken down.

The two stood facing each other, each occupying one side.

"You actually have a key to enter the main hall? Aren't you a half-merman without any foundation? Could it be that you came from the East Sea? Did the Merfolk Queen give you the key to the Inheritance Hall?"

"So what?"

“There are many rare treasures in the East Sea, no wonder I suddenly couldn’t sense your location.” His voice was hoarse, as if it had been sanded.

"And what about you? You told me about Falling Star Lake, were you testing me? You're just a Nascent Soul half-mermaid, and your cultivation has dropped to this level. You came here to repair it, didn't you?"

"Of course, it's a godsend that I've encountered a Merfolk here, one with royal blood. I can use you to start the inheritance."

"The Mermaid Queen thinks highly of me. Are you going to become an enemy of the Mermaid Clan?"

"Ha, so what if you're royalty? You still have to cultivate alongside others. How is your bloodline any more noble than mine? My birth mother abandoned me, preferring to return to the East Sea with her own kind! Hahaha, you appearing in such a faraway place, you must be a child abandoned by the Empress. You can't fool me!"
