For the first couple of days Lu Li was back at the Northern Desert, he had been staying at the Deserted World. It might be because he felt guilty for Bai Qiuxue or he was using this time to think about his future path.
Grand Master had straightened the matter for now but there was a time limit of 10 years.
Lu Li had accepted this result. If it were not for the fact that the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse showed strange signs, he would have been slayed right now. All his families and friends at the Northern Desert would have been wiped out as well…
Lu Li was still too naïve…
In the small world, he thought that he could put pressure by threatening with Ji Mengtian and the other four"s lives and make the matter worse so as to settle it once and for all.
But when he left the small world, everything span out of control. He finally understood that the four forces were not to be challenged easily. It was a miracle that Lu Li was still alive now.
Lu Li didn"t regret imprisoning Ji Mengtian, Yang Ji and the gang.
There were some things in life that must be done without considering the outcomes. If one was to be overly cautious about everything, then what was the point of living? If Lu Li would accept and put up with everything, then he wouldn"t have to be the Emperor of Northern Desert. He could just live his life in vexation.
What had been done could not be undone. To worry about that was meaningless.
Lu Li had to think about how to deal with the future. Since Grand Master said he would protect Lu Li for 10 years, then during this time, it should be fine. Yet after 10 years, the four forces would have to win back their honor.
Lu Family, Hades Society, Pavilion of Blossoms and the Samsara Palace!
Those were the four most powerful forces at the Central Plains. Among the four, Lu Family should be the weakest. That being said, Lu Family already had two Earth Immortal Realm warriors and the Chief Patriarch was likely to be on the verge of reaching this realm as well.
Samsara Palace!
As the most powerful at the Central Plains, how many Earth Immortal Realm warriors did they have? Lu Li did not know the answer. Given that the Samsara Palace was the most powerful, they must have at least four or five Earth Immortal Realm warriors. Putting together, the four forces must have more than 10 at this realm. As for the number of Human Sovereign Realm warriors…it would be much greater.
With what the Northern Desert got, two Human Sovereign Realm warriors could wipe it out, not to mention when Earth Immortal Realm warriors came. It would seem that 10 years was a long time but what could be achieved during that time? How many Human Sovereign Realm warriors could there be? What was the point even if four or five warriors could reach the Human Sovereign Realm?
Lu Li was forced into a conundrum. If worst came to worst, he would have to relocate everyone from the Northern Desert to the Deserted World and hide in there for the rest of their lives. He would have to destroy all the pa.s.sages. If people from the outside could not come then, how would they kill him?
"I must cultivate hard for 10 years and find the Bodhi Fruit. I will try to locate my sister. If I can get my parents rescued, it would be the best!"
Lu Li had made up his mind. He was p.r.o.ne to swift actions. After he reached a decision, he walked out of the castle and told a patriarch of the Cyan Phoenix Race, "Get G.o.d of Meng here."
Third Patriarch of the Cyan Phoenix Race nodded. He went to send the message to Chee-ker and came back.
Lu Li asked casually, "Where is Ye Cha? Why isn"t he here? How are the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race doing this half a year?"
"Clan leader has gone back."
Third Patriarch reported, "Our princess is trying to reach the Eternal Realm. Clan Leader is worried so he has gone back to check. Our two races have been quite good. With the Mystical Materials you gave us, we have another four warriors reaching the n.o.ble Lord Realm. They have all entered the Deserted World."
"Princess?"
Thinking of that tough and unruly girl, Lu Li pouted. He nodded and said, "Princess Xi is talented. I think she is only 13, right? She is about to reach the Eternal Realm. She is as talented as the young masters and young ladies from the 12 royal families."
Third Patriarch smiled fondly and said, "That kid is a good kid. She is just a bit rude and unruly."
"Bang, bang, bang~"
While they were chatting, some m.u.f.fled sounds of footsteps came from afar. A giant had come. It was G.o.d of Meng. There were many Teleportation Formations built in the Deserted World so it was convenient for G.o.d of Meng to come.
At the small battlefield, Lu Li had seen quite a number of barbarians so he was used to the size of the t.i.tan Race now. He didn"t feel stressed in front of G.o.d of Meng. Nevertheless, G.o.d of Meng was a Human Sovereign Realm with powerful qi and energy. He could strike awe in people from afar.
"Saint Lord!"
G.o.d of Meng bowed. Looking at Lu Li for a bit, G.o.d of Meng nodded and said, "Saint Lord you seem to have made progress?"
"Eh?"
Third Patriarch looked at Lu Li curiously. He was still at the initial stage of the Eternal Realm. Why did G.o.d of Meng say Lu Li had made progress?
"Human Sovereign Realm warriors do have acute senses."
Lu Li nodded. He thought about it and said, "I indeed have some progresses in my abilities. I have learned a form of soul attack. I can defeat any warrior at the peak of the n.o.ble Lord Realm if the warrior doesn"t have soul protections! I think I can kill an average n.o.ble Lord Realm warrior instantly."
"Soul attacks?"
Third Patriarch"s eyes were wide open in shock. It had only been half a year and Lu Li had become a soul warrior? He could shock souls of warriors at the peak of the n.o.ble Lord Realm?
"This is incredible!"
G.o.d of Meng exclaimed in sincerity. He didn"t misjudge Lu Li who turned out to be really a strong talent. Right at that time, Little White rushed down from a mountain and hopped onto Lu Li"s shoulder.
Lu Li patted Little White"s head fondly and said, "My progress is nothing compared to Little White"s. Little White can destroy Quasi Relic now. I think it can also survive Human Sovereign Realm warrior"s attack."
"What?"
Even G.o.d of Meng was shocked. Lu Li said to Little White with a smile, "Take out the Ding of Barbarian G.o.d. Let them have a look."
"Buzzing~"
Little White"s horns glared as the Ding of Barbarian G.o.d appeared in midair. Little White discharged some thunderbolts and the Ding of Barbarian G.o.d lit up with a layer of black air circulating. Runes were glistening. A primitive and awe-inspiring qi spread out.
"Quasi Relic!"
Both G.o.d of Meng and Third Patriarch recognized it. Their eyes glared.
Lu Li was happy to see their faces. He was the Saint Lord of the Cyan Phoenix Race, the Mammoth Race and the t.i.tan Race. When he could make fast progress and have powerful means, he could hold powerful warriors of the three races in awe. Or else, even if Ye Cha, G.o.d of Meng and Meng Zhi were convinced by Lu Li, the others might not.
It was because of this that Lu Li had mentioned he could conduct soul attacks and asked Little White to take out the Ding of Barbarian G.o.d. Otherwise, he wouldn"t have mentioned it.
"Okay, there is that!"
Some things didn"t have to be spilled out in full. Lu Li asked Little White to put away the Ding of Barbarian G.o.d. He asked G.o.d of Meng, "How many pa.s.sages there are connecting the Deserted World to the outside?"
"Pa.s.sages?"
G.o.d of Meng thought about it and said, "Three. There is one connecting to the Northern Desert, one to the Central Plains and another one to the Serenity Plains. I have closed off the two pa.s.sages to the Central Plains and the Serenity Plains. n.o.body there knows about the two pa.s.sages. They are very secluded."
"Serenity Plains?"
Lu Li frowned. He took out a map from his ring and began to read it carefully. He knew that the Great Land was divided into nine plains. But he only knew about the Central Plains, the Cyan Plains and the Northern Desert and was unfamiliar with the other places.
"Central Plains, Cyan Plains, Wings Plains, the Yan Plains, Frost Plains, Northern Desert, Clouds Plains, Ocean Plains and the Serenity Plains. The Serenity Plains is to the southwest of Central Plains and it is far away."
Lu Li read the map closed and found the Serenity Plains. He had purchased the map from Central Plains but had never read it carefully before.
Great Land had nine plains among which Central Plains was the largest. The other eight combined was still smaller than Central Plains. Northern Plains was very small, only a little bigger than the Ocean Plains.
Looking at the map, an idea sprang to Lu Li"s mind. He murmured, "I have been looking for my sister at the Central Plains. Is it possible that she has been taken to the other plains?"
The more he thought about it, the more his eyes glared in excitement. Pavilion of Delicacy had been investigating in the Central Plains and when Lu Li posted the mission at the Sanctuary, it was still within the bounds of the Central Plains. He didn"t realize he could search in other plains.
Looking at the map, Lu Li realized the Clouds Plains, Wings Plains and the Serenity Plains were quite large, dozens of times larger than the Northern Desert. There must be a number of powerful warriors in those three regions. There might be one that had mastered the Holy Light Profound Meaning.
