In fact, the truly important first volume of the Heavenly Book in the Dripping Blood Cave, as well as the treasure Hehuan Bell, have already fallen into Li Ling's hands. Now, it's just a few members of the Demonic Sect who are active here.
Li Ling thought for a moment and said, "There are eight of us in total. I think we four should explore one cave entrance and the other four should explore the other. If we encounter any demonic cult members, we can just kill them!"
Fa Xiang thought that Li Ling and Li Xun had clashed quite a bit along the way, and he didn't know if they would have conflicts again when they were together. So he nodded in agreement and said, "Junior Brother's opinion is quite reasonable. Then let's go this way. You must be careful!"
As Faxiang, Fashan, and Yan Hong headed towards the cave on their right, Li Ling said, "Alright, let's go too."
As the leader of the four, Li Ling naturally took the lead and walked ahead. After an unknown amount of time, the sound of countless crows cawing suddenly rang out in the cave!
Seeing the anomaly, with three crisp clangs, Zhang Xiaofan, Zeng Shushu, and Lu Xueqi all drew their weapons, ready for battle! (The rest of the text appears to be unrelated and likely refers to a separate event or command.)

Chapter 351: Do you know who my uncle is?
Despite the unusual noises around him, Li Ling let out a cold laugh: "Hmph, finally couldn't hold back, huh?"
He then made a fist with his right hand and reached out to grab the stone wall beside him. With a loud rumble, the stone wall shattered and pieces of rock flew everywhere. Li Ling pulled out an extremely beautiful young woman.
Li Ling said, "Your magic that allows you to hide in the stone wall is indeed ingenious, but you left a trace as soon as you made a move."
Despite being caught by Li Ling, the beautiful young woman remained unfazed and said with a charming smile, "Little brother, you're really something, you actually found your sister's trail. But you didn't think I was the only one here, did you?"
Li Ling chuckled, "Hehe, it's good that you're all here. It's dark and the terrain is complicated. If you hadn't come looking for me, it wouldn't have been easy to find you!"
"Hmph, you've got quite the nerve at such a young age, thinking you can wipe us all out? I'm not playing with you anymore!"
With a laugh, the beautiful young woman suddenly produced a black rope from her sleeve, wrapping it tightly around Li Ling's arm. In an instant, Li Ling was firmly bound!
Easily freeing herself from Li Ling's grasp, the beautiful young woman looked at Lu Xueqi and the others, and laughed, "Now, who has been caught in a trap by whom?"
"Ah Ling!" Zhang Xiaofan exclaimed in surprise. Without the slightest hesitation, he joined forces with Zeng Shushu to attack the beautiful young woman.
Lu Xueqi retaliated with her sword, the Tianya Sword striking the ropes binding Li Ling. However, the ropes were made of superior material, and the sword could not break them with a single strike.
However, given the sharpness of the Heavenly Sword, even though it was unbroken, a visible crack appeared on the rope. Clearly, if a few more sword strikes came, no matter how miraculous the rope was, it would inevitably break!
"Tianya?!" The beautiful young woman's expression finally changed. She looked at the divine weapon in Lu Xueqi's hand with a look of shock and greed: "Hmph, it seems that heaven is truly helping us! This divine weapon is going to be ours!"
As she was about to step forward and seize the divine weapon, her expression suddenly changed drastically. She fell to the ground with a thud and couldn't help but scream loudly. It was as if tens of thousands of ants were crawling all over her body. The beautiful young woman kept scratching herself all over.
In no time, the woman who had been alluring just moments before was covered in bloody welts all over her body. Even so, she couldn't stop scratching herself, yelling, "What...what did you do to me?"
Bound by the enemy's magical artifact, Li Ling laughed and said, "It's just a self-created 'Life and Death Talisman,' of course, an enhanced version cast with spiritual power. This is the first time I've tried it out in this world. How does it feel?"
In the world of "Young Zhang Sanfeng", Li Ling comprehended the concepts of Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and Chaos, and created the "Seven Injury Fist" which contained the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. In his spare time, he also tried to create the "Life and Death Talisman" which was very powerful in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".
The Life and Death Talisman contains Yin and Yang energies. It is attached to clear water and activated by internal force, with three parts Yang and seven parts Yin; or six parts Yin and four parts Yang.
Although there are only two energies, Yin and Yang, their order of precedence and their quantity are different, and they can change in countless ways at will.
Those struck by the Life and Death Talisman will have their Yin and Yang energies in disordered. Once the attack begins, it will become more severe day by day, with the intense itching and pain increasing for 81 days. Then it will gradually subside, only to increase again after 81 days, and so on in an endless cycle.
After numerous attempts, Li Ling finally created this method. Now, in this world of immortals and heroes, activating it with the spiritual power within his body is even more powerful than activating it with internal force.
As they were talking, Lu Xueqi swiftly swung her sword several times. The "Binding Immortal Rope," which had shone brightly in the original work, had not even had a chance to unleash its power before it was cut into several pieces, its precious light dissipated, and it was completely useless.
The beautiful young woman, no longer caring about her heartache, cried out, "Brother Nian, come out and save me! These young Qingyun disciples have treasures in their hands. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several people appeared in the darkness. The leader was a burly man with a thick beard. When he saw the beautiful young woman covered in blood and still scratching herself incessantly, he couldn't help but change color slightly.
But the next moment, one of the people suddenly stepped forward and chuckled, "Good sister, you've lost so much blood, don't waste it, let me have it instead."
After saying that, the man disregarded the fact that the enemy was nearby and pounced on the beautiful young woman, licking her body.
A moment later, the beautiful young woman couldn't help but scream in agony. It turned out that the man wasn't satisfied with just licking the surface of the blood, and suddenly opened his mouth and tore a piece of flesh off her body.
"Hmph, as expected of a demonic cultist!" Lu Xueqi said disdainfully!
The eldest brother, frowning, shouted angrily, "Jiang Laosan, you better watch yourself! We have a formidable enemy at hand, you're not allowed to fight amongst yourselves!"
The eldest brother seemed quite authoritative that year. Even though Jiang Laosan was extremely greedy for blood, he couldn't help but shudder when he heard his angry words. He licked his lips a few more times before reluctantly retreating!
At this moment, the beautiful young woman was already on the verge of death. Her body, lying on the ground, twitched from time to time, indicating that the Life and Death Talisman was still in effect. However, she didn't even have the strength to scream. She just murmured, "Kill me, kill me quickly!"
With a snort, the eldest brother's right eye suddenly swelled several times larger, resembling a cyclops. A red light flashed within his eyeball and struck the beautiful young woman.
With a muffled groan, the beautiful young woman died instantly, but there was a look of relief in her eyes.
Then the eldest brother turned to look at Li Ling and the others, his red eyes were extremely ferocious, and he said in a gloomy tone: "I advise you to surrender and avoid suffering more!"
Lu Xueqi stepped forward, holding the Tianya Sword to her chest, and said sternly, "Demons and monsters should be killed by everyone!"
"Tianya!" A look of surprise flashed across Elder Nian's single eye. He looked at Lu Xueqi, a hint of apprehension in his eyes.
Suddenly, a frivolous laugh came from the side: "What a beautiful young lady! Even I am mesmerized. Little sister, obediently offer up the Tianya Sword and become my concubine. I can decide whether you live or die today, how about that?"
The speaker was a young man holding a gold-threaded folding fan. He was pale-faced, frivolous in demeanor, and his eyes were full of covetousness and greed as he looked at Lu Xueqi.
A flash of displeasure crossed Lu Xueqi's face, but for some reason, she couldn't help but turn her head slightly and steal a glance at Li Ling!
Li Ling stepped forward and said coldly, "You are Elder Nian, the leader of the Blood Refining Hall, right? If you skin this little bastard alive, dismember him, and dismember him in front of me, and then cripple your own cultivation, then I can decide to spare your life today!"
Lu Xueqi still had a cold face full of murderous intent, but after Li Ling stepped forward, for some reason, she couldn't help but feel a surge of joy in her heart.
The old man, enraged, laughed: "Arrogant and ignorant! When my Blood Refining Hall once dominated the world, even your Qingyun Sect had to give way. Today, you juniors are not to be underestimated. You have brought this upon yourselves, so don't blame me!"
As he spoke, a red light gathered in his large eyes, clearly indicating that he intended to kill the four juniors in front of him with his ultimate move.
