Lu Li went on an outburst. He pulled the coffin and ran like h.e.l.l, as if the 3300-pound Ancient Coffin was just a toy in his hands. He did not even need to put the chains on his shoulders anymore, nor did he need to take off his jacket. He could wildly run in strides with only his two hands dragging on the cold iron chains.

"Young man, slow down or you will fall."

Lu Li surpa.s.sed one elderly after another. The latter, after seeing Lu Li was running like a wild horse, the hearts of the elderlies were filled with mixed feelings. Some of the elderlies secretly felt remorse. They should have asked for the Body Refinement Pellets in the first place…

Lu Li had pulled six coffins today. Even though he was carrying coffins with him, he was just a bit slower than the normal walking speed. He was so fast that some of the elderlies secretly got jealous. For them, these coffins were equal to the Mysterious Deity Pellets and Lu Li had taken the pellets from them.

The sun was sinking down; there were glaring rays of twilight in the west sky. Lu Li had finished on his sixth coffin and started to breath heavily on the top of the ridge. He had been hurrying all day on his way, so he had already exerted a huge amount of physical strength, yet there was no trace of exhaustion on his face; instead, there was only excitement.

Today, Lu Li could get six Body Refinement Pellets. Even though he had two pre-paid pellets yesterday, deducted from the today"s payment, there would still be four pellets for him. It would be enough for him to increase his strength to more than 11,000 pounds.

Lady Yi had not come yet. It could be because there were still some coffins left behind. Lu Li could not do anything but to wait. After a couple of hours, the sun had completely sunk down, with only traces of twilight left in the sky.

"Why haven"t they got here yet?"

Lu Li had grown a bit impatient and anxious. Lady Yi should have come to the top a while back. He stood up and started pacing back and forth on the top of the ridge.He was secretly praying that everything was fine.

"Roar~"

Right at that time, there came a loud beast roaring from thousands of miles away in the north. The roaring was even louder and scarier than the one that happened days ago. It was so loud that it shook Lu Li and the elderly coffin carriers, and even the escorts of the Liu Family had almost fell to the ground in a moment of weakness.

Qi and energy of utmost fierceness came from the north. It was indeed from a long distance, but nonetheless Lu Li and the others felt like coldness was spreading over their body as well as fear in their hearts.

An elderly was trembling as he mumbled, "This must be a Xuan Beast of at least more than the sixth rank."

Xuan Wu Realm, Spirit Sea Realm, Soul Pond Realm, Fate Wheel Realm, Eternal Realm, n.o.ble Lord Realm, Human Sovereign Realm!

The ranks of Xuan Beasts corresponded with the realms of warriors, so a Xuan Beast of a level higher than six could compare to a warrior of n.o.ble Lord Realm and above. Should the Xuan Beast be of the seventh rank, it could amount to the strongest of a human warrior—the Human Sovereign Realm.

Human Sovereign Realm!

That was the Human Sovereign! However, there seemed to be not a single Human Sovereign who had appeared in the vast land of the Northern Desert. So, one could imagine how powerful the Xuan Beast that was roaring must be.

"Howl-howl~~" "Chirp-chirp!" "Roar, roar…"

Sounds of Xuan Beasts call came one after another. These were weaker than the first one, yet closer. It seemed like they only came from a place like 60 or 90 miles away from Lu Li"s location.

"How terrible!"

One of the escorts of the Liu Family seemed to be in shock, and he screamed in fear, "The King of the Xuan Beast in the Ice Abyss roared, and the Xuan Beasts on the outside seemed to be in a riot. Please don"t let a Beast Upheaval to occur!"

"Beast Upheaval?"

All escorts and coffin carriers had their continence changed. Once a Beast Upheaval happened, one could not dare to think about the grave consequences.

15 years ago, Beast Upheaval once occurred at the Ice Abyss. That time, hundreds of thousands of people of the villages affiliated with the Wu Ling County got torn apart. Were it not for the fact that the Super Families set out to fight, the entire Wu Ling County would see no living things spared…

Speaking of the devil!

With the sounds of beasts roaring and fowls crying coming in waves, there appeared in the distant mountains tides of fierce qi and energy. Many gigantic creatures flew into the heavens to the north, covering half of the sky. Numerous terrifying flying beasts screamed in a sharp voice, which could pierce through gold and stones, vibrating throughout the wildness.

"d.a.m.n…"

Lu Li showed signs of impatience. It looked like a Beast Upheaval was likely to happen, which could mean that disasters could be brought along to the Di Long Tribe. He was utterly worried about his sister, however, he still needed to acquire several pieces of Body Refinement Pellets before he could leave this place.

"Wait for a bit longer."

Di Long Tribe was located about nine miles to the south of the Black Hawk Ridge. Even if the Beast Upheavals were to spread this way, it would reach the Black Hawk Ridge first, meaning, he could have enough time to return quickly.

Moreover, there were many powerful warriors from Super Families over at the Ice Abyss, and countless people from tribes were stationed there. Powerful warriors like Liu Wu hadn"t shown in a couple of days; it could be that they were stationed over there as well. They might be able to stop the Beast Upheavals from spreading out.

"Shriek, Shriek~"

The fowl crying in the north had become even more furious. Confronted with the dark shades of the night and seeing the sky in the north was covered up by the ferocious beasts, Lu Li and the others were all panic-stricken and frightened.

The dozens of escorts of the Liu Family were also secretly surprised and scared, but they did not dare to show it. Liu Wu had brought along with him all the powerful warriors of the Liu Family, and the escorts that stayed on the Black Hawk Ridge were all from the Xuan Wu Real. However, there was not a single warrior that came from the Spirit Sea Realm. If a large group of powerful fowls or Xuan Beasts would spread this way, there would be a big trouble.

"Prepare to open the Grand Formation!"

A team leader at the peak of the Xuan Wu Realm deeply shouted. The Black Hawk Ridge was the ice burial ground of the Liu Family, and the construction of the Grand Formation had started a long time ago, and this project was finished a couple of days ago. When put into use, it could easily withstand the attack of Xuan Beasts of the third or the fourth rank.

However, the qi and energy of the ferocious beasts in the north were so adamant that they must have come from Xuan Beasts of the fourth or the fifth rank. Let alone a whole group of them, even if there were only two or three of them were to come here, all the warriors would be buried at the Black Hawk Ridge

"Swish~."

Right when a lot of elderly was ready to leave beforehand, there came a noise piercing through the sky, and they saw a chariot glowing with a golden radiance flying over from the heavens of the north.

The chariot shone in all its golden splendor. Numerous rays of mighty qi and energy came from inside the chariot, so powerful that Lu Li and the others had a hard time breathing under the stress.

"They are the powerful warriors of the Eternal Realm. It should be okay now. There will be no more trouble."

The team leader was relieved. The powerful warriors of the Super Families had set out to fight, and they could suppress the ferocious beasts. The Super Families would not allowed the savage beasts to wreak havoc everywhere.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Powerful warriors in golden armor consecutively flew up to the sky. They were s.h.i.+ning bright like a sun. Lu Li could see them as shadows giving out a golden glow, but it was too far away for him to clearly see their faces.

The golden-armored powerful warriors had made their moves, waving strains of golden satins [1] which lightened up the northern sky. The ferocious beasts were consecutively knocked down as waves of loud voices had shattered the heaven and earth. Mountains were smashed, and rivers were cut off as noises of boulders rolling down came one after another.

"They are the real powerful warriors. They could rave the mountains and rivers to the ground, smash boulders and suppress the Xuan Beasts, all with a lift of a hand."

Lu Li was excited by what he saw. Unfortunately, he was too far away from the powerful warriors, and they were too quick for him to clearly see their moves. All he could see were just rays of shadows and huge satins.

"Shriek, shriek~"

Several hundreds of black dots suddenly spread over the sky, and cries of fowls became closer. The elderlies were frightened as they rushed down the mountain, disregarding everything else. They did not even bother to worry about their payments.

"Open the Grand Formation!"

The escort"s team leader shouted. Lu Li also started to crazily run downhill.

The Black Hawk Ridge was too high that it made the it an easy target. Judging by the sound of the fowls, people could tell that these ferocious beasts were not of high ranks, however, there were just too many of them. On top of that, once the fight started here, it would attract more Xuan Beasts.

Eventually, a blue glow on the peak of the ridge appeared, and a s.h.i.+eld was formed that covered the Black Hawk Ridge, protecting all the Ancient Coffins within it.

"Swish, swish, swis.h.!.+"

Three Liu Family Escorts hurriedly came down from the top of the ridge on their Silver Wolves. At the same time, a deep cry from the Escort Team Leader came from the top of the Ridge, "We will try to hold out against the beasts first. You go and find Lady Yi, and tell her to go back to the family to ask for rescue."

"Lady Yi?"

Lu Li paused on his way hurrying down the mountain. Recently, the pellets were distributed by the elderly at the side of Lady Yi. Should these escorts happen to find Lady Yi, did it mean that he could get his Body Refinement Pellets?

Without the Body Refinement Pellets, it would be difficult for Lu Li to reach the strength of 11,000 pounds. If he couldn"t reach it, then he could not awaken his bloodline. He was too close to reaching 11,000-pounds of strength, so letting this opportunity go would certainly make him feel bad.

"Move!"

After a short while, Lu Li had made up his mind and decided to follow the escorts to find Lady Yi.

There was a distance of a bit over nine miles between the Black Hawk Ridge and the Di Long Tribe, with two large tribes located between the two. It would take some time for the Beast Upheaval to reach the Di Long Tribe before it actually happened, so Lu Li still had enough time to make his way back.
