"Saint Lord, no!"
Meng Zhi was terrified by the proposal. He was not clear about Lu Li"s true abilities. In his mind, Lu Li was too young and he was only at the middle stage of the Fate Wheel Realm. How could Lu Li be a worthy opponent of Meng Huo? Meng Huo could just stand there and let Lu Li hit him without getting hurt. Meng Zhi knew the defensive power of the Mammoth Race and the t.i.tan Race too well.
Ye Cha was worried as well. He had lost track of the development of Lu Li"s abilities. After Lu Li came back to the Northern Desert, he only fought twice. When he fought against Du Heng, Ye Cha was not around. When he was fighting with Chee-ker, Lu Li only used his Blood Claw but nothing else.
Bai Qiuxue was nervous as well. She whispered to him, "Lu Li, let me go. I can confuse his mind."
"No!"
Lu Li could not let others fought for him this time. He must give the t.i.tan Race a reason to trust him and prove to them that he could bring them back to their ancestral lands. If Bai Qiuxue helped him out, then his intention could not be met.
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Meng Huo laughed. Looking at Lu Li with deride, he said, "Very good. Human, you have got b.a.l.l.s. If you want to have fun, then I will play with you. But I cannot speak for the t.i.tan Race. That being said, if you can live for the time for one incense stick to burn under my fists, I will bring our Clan Leader here."
"Alright. Deal!"
Lu Li nodded with confidence and then said to Chee-ker, "Find an open land for us. Don"t say anything else. I have made up my mind."
Ye Cha and Meng Zhi looked at each other and nodded. If Lu Li was in fatal danger, they would have to intervene to save him.
Bai Qiuxue was thinking about the same thing. Chee-ker brought them to a big valley and she asked all the Hags there to leave. Also, she ordered that no Hag was allowed to spectate.
Lu Li and the others stood on the mountain next to the valley. Meng Huo stood in the middle of the value and the other t.i.tans moved to the other side of the valley with clear sarcasm on their faces. Their presence resembled the appearance of five giant stone pillars.
"Little White, wake up!"
Lu Li tried to wake Little White up who had been sleeping for a long time. It ate up a lot of Soul Crystals on their way back from the eastern Central Plains to the Northern Desert and it had been sleeping since then.
This fight allowed for no failure which was why Lu Li tried to wake Little White up to help him. However, Little White was still soundly asleep even after Lu Li took it out from his sleeve.
"Never mind…"
Lu Li handed it to Bai Qiuxue, released his Fate Wheel and flew up.
He had consulted Ye Cha who said that t.i.tan Race didn"t have strong souls. Much like the Mammoth Race, the t.i.tan Race had strong bodies but simple minds. Naturally, their souls were not particularly strong.
"Start timing!"
Lu Li took a deep breath and released Burning Blood. He threw a look to Ye Cha and others before he cupped his fists to Meng Huo and said, "Patriarch Meng, please!"
"Okay!"
Meng Huo shouted. His dark golden skin started to glare and then a surge of horrifying qi came out from him. As of this moment, Lu Li no longer felt he was faced with a t.i.tan, but a Beast King, a Beast King from ancient times.
"Boom!"
With a backward kick on the ground from Meng Huo, the ground cracked and two deep pits emerged. Meng Huo leaped up and his G.o.d-like dark golden hand reached at Lu Li.
"So fast!"
Lu Li was taken aback by the speed and he controlled his Fate Wheel to fly back at once. At the same time, he began to generate clones. In an instant, the s.p.a.ce was filled with more than 10 Lu Li and all of them were on Fate Wheels. All the Lu Li were everywhere, flying and moving.
"Wow…"
It was the first time for everyone here to see this. They were shocked by the view. Ye Cha and his patriarchs were surprised to see that they could not tell which one was the real person.
"Profound Meaning!"
Ye Cha murmured. He was excited by this. Profound Meaning was the only explanation. Not even ancient spells could prevent n.o.ble Lord Realms from detecting the real person.
Ye Cha remembered that Lu Li had just learned a new Profound Meaning a while back and now he was using a different one?
The several patriarchs were both envious and happy. None of them had learned any Profound Meaning, but Lu Li had the chance to learn two. Comparisons were obvious.
Bai Qiuxue"s eyes glowed. She could tell from the reaction of Ye Cha and the others that Lu Li"s skill was a powerful one. Secretly, she felt proud. The man of her dreams was outstanding…
Meng Huo"s big eyes were filled with shock. He could not tell which one was the real one, either. He had to resort to the simplest means to deal with all the Lu Li.
"Hoy!"
He smashed at one of the clones with his huge fists. He used so much strength that s.p.a.ce trembled and there were even some ripples in the air.
With the spread of the ripples, two more clones shattered.
The patriarch of t.i.tan Race was uplifted by the prospect. He jumped up and smashed the air with his fists. He managed to shatter all the clones of Lu Li with the ripples in the air.
"More!"
Once again, Lu Li generated clones. He became more cautious. Meng Huo was huge in size but he was very flexible. He was even faster than Ming Yu which made it difficult for Lu Li to move closer.
The time for one incense stick to burn was fast and Lu Li could survive that easily.
But what he was looking for was not surviving Meng Huo after the time for one incense stick to burn, but to hurt Meng Huo which was the only way to strike some awe in the Clan Leader of the t.i.tan Race.
Otherwise, even after the Clan Leader was here, it would still be difficult for Lu Li to convince him. Then the trip to the Deserted World would be meaningless and Lu Li would lose his chance to conquer it.
However, Meng Huo was too fast and too ferocious in his attacks. How could Lu Li move closer? Even if he did, he might be killed by Meng Huo with one fist.
"Speed, I am too slow!"
Lu Li kept on generating clones and controlled them to move closer to Meng Huo while the real Lu Li kept a distance to avoid being hit. He began to ponder about how to speed up. Only when he was fast enough could he have a chance to move close to Meng Huo and hurt him with the Blood Claw.
"Speed Profound Meaning!"
The more he thought about it, the more Lu Li was convinced that speed Profound Meaning was the only way. However, he had just scratched the surfaced of it and he had no idea of how to use it.
"Hoy!"
Meng Huo kept on smas.h.i.+ng and shattering the clones. With time pa.s.sing by, Meng Huo was getting anxious as well. The time was almost up but he still could not lay his hand on this young human. If words were sent back to his clan, his authority would diminish.
He thought about it and realized that all the clones close to him could be shattered easily but one of them had been flying at a distance. He had an idea. With a golden glare on his legs, he sped up and tried to smash at the one in the distance.
"Um!"
This one was, of course, Lu Li himself. He had been thinking about how to use the Speed Profound Meaning and he got distracted. From the depths of his soul, there came a sense of fatal danger. A pot-sized fist was enlarging and closing up in his eyes.
The fist was getting closer. The ripples in the air were spreading out. Even if this was only a clone, it would be shattered. There was not enough time for Lu Li to run…
"No! Meng Huo, stop!"
Meng Zhi and Ye Cha were terrified. They also realized that this one was the real person when the ripples in air could not shatter it. How could Lu Li survive the attack from Meng Huo?
"Whoos.h.!.+"
Almost simultaneously, Ye Cha and the others flew up. Bai Qiuxue was frightened as well. The Sindoor mark lit up and she released her Fate Wheel and moved to Lu Li.
"Don"t!"
At that moment, Lu Li shouted. He didn"t move and instead stared at the ripples in the air. Suddenly, he cracked a smile.
