At the onset, not many n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors could be found at the Northern Desert. The total number was merely above a dozen, counting the ones of the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race. During the past two years, however, with Lu Li purchasing many rare materials, many warriors had made the breakthrough. Bai Leng and some other Eternal Realm warriors of the Zi Family and the Yu Family had accomplished this.
Similar situation was happening in the Deserted World as well. The Deserted World lacked certain Mystical Materials. After Lu Li bought them back from the Central Plains, the number of warriors reaching the n.o.ble Lord Realm had witnessed steady increase.
Lu Li made a rough calculation and believed that there were at least 50 that were at the n.o.ble Lord Realm now. Of course…this was only a small number compared to the Clouds Plains. The Drifting Cloud Hall alone had hundreds of n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors. But it was dictated by reality. The Northern Desert was a remote area that had always been in want of Mystical Materials. It was difficult for even one to grow into a n.o.ble Lord Realm warrior before.
G.o.d of Meng was having some worries. The Clouds Plains boasted strong forces. If one or two thousand n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors came from the Clouds Plains, would the Clouds Plains get the lion share of the Mystical Materials?
Lu Li was not worried about that. In fact, the thought never crossed his mind.
To him, Lu Ling was everything. If she said the word, he could give her everything he already had, not to mention the resources of the small world.
Lu Li asked Ye Cha to go back and send his orders. Apart from Yu Huashen and Lu Feixue, all the n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors were to come to the new world.
One or two n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors must stay in command outside. Also, Lu Li still didn"t trust Yu Huashen enough, which was why he was not brought in. With Yu Huashen, Lu Feixue and Madam Yan staying outside, the Northern Desert should be peaceful.
Currently, one of the major families from the Central Plains dared to go the Northern Desert in broad daylight. They would only send over some scouts, the most powerful of which should only be of the Eternal Realm. Yu Huashen and Madam Yan were more than enough to deal with them.
What was more, the Northern Desert didn"t have many secrets. As long as the Deserted World was protected, the scouts could learn everything else of the Northern Desert and it would still be fine.
Lu Li told Yu Huashen to guard the exits of the Deserted World if he was not busy. So long as the Deserted World was without outside scouts, the other places could be swarmed with scout from the Central Plains and it still wouldn"t bother Lu Li.
As soon as his orders were spread out, all the powerful warriors of the Northern Desert began to take actions. Zi Huanqiao and Bai Leng were getting excited. Deserted World had been a forbidden land for them. How come Lu Li finally allowed them in?
Lu Ling told Hu Lang to mobilize n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors from the Clouds Plains in person. Of course, not all had come. All of them coming would cause unwanted attention from the forces of the Serenity Plains. Only half of the n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors would have a number of more than 1000.
Teleportation Formations were being constructed quickly. By the time n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors from the Clouds Plains had arrived, the Teleportation Formation at the crater was complete.
"So many n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors? There are Human Sovereign Realm warriors, too?"
When Zi Huanqiao, Bai Leng and Ming Yu arrived, they were scared by the fact. They were the ones standing at the peak of the Northern Desert, but in here, faced with the powerful warriors from the Clouds Plains, they felt they were at the bottom.
"Go into the Inferno!"
Lu Li and Lu Ling were staying in the new world that they had named "Inferno". They had left the other matters for Ye Cha and G.o.d of Meng to handle while they guided warriors to enter the Inferno.
Zi Huanqiao, Zi Huanyu, Bai Leng and Ming Yu went through the tunnel one after another. Tents were being built in the Inferno. At the entrance to the valley there was a divine formation. The place now could be used as a base camp for them to rest, cultivate or recover from injuries.
"Emperor!"
After the n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors of the Northern Desert came, they immediately knelt and saluted Lu Li. He asked them to forgo the formalities and let them rest in the tents without explaining too much. They must wait for the arrival of other warriors.
Almost all the n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors from the Northern Desert were here. Half of those from the Clouds Plains had arrived with the other half en route.
After half a day, they were all here. The Clouds Plains had sent over more than 1000 n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors. In comparison, the number from the Deserted World and Northern Desert was small.
Many n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors from the Clouds Plains were confused as to why they were asked here but they were afraid to ask questions when not allowed with Hu Lang, Qu Cheng and Lu Ling"s presence.
Lu Li looked at Lu Ling. She walked out, looked at the big crowds and said, "This place is called the Inferno. It is a small world. We have asked you to come to conquer the small world. There are more Mystical Materials than we can count and more treasures. Of course…there are horrifying beasts."
"It is a dangerous place. Maybe in a year"s time, half of you will lose your lives here. But I can a.s.sure you—if you can survive, you will make big progress and your abilities will be transformed. Also, the Mystical Materials you can get will be more than enough for you to spend in this lifetime."
"Now, I have some rules. You must listen to order. You must not turn against each other. If you have some disputes, we shall make the call. Anyone that dare to resort to violence and kill your brothers and sisters shall be punished with death!"
With that said, Lu Ling turned to Hu Lang and shouted, "General Hu Lang!"
Hu Lang stepped out. He looked at the crowd with a fierce expression and said, "What Saintess has said is our decision. The four of us will stay in command here. We will slay anyone that dare to misbehave!"
They were even afraid to breathe in the face of the four Human Sovereign Realm warriors. Lu Ling could not say that she was the master of the Clouds Plains in front of the powerful warriors there. She would have to need the Human Sovereign Realm warriors to deter them.
Those from the Deserted World were led by G.o.d of Meng. All from the Northern Desert would obey Lu Li. Of course, the number from the Deserted World and Northern Desert was small. They wouldn"t ask for trouble when there were so many from Clouds Plains. They actually were afraid that their Clouds Plains counterpart would bully them.
Lu Ling was outstanding in strategies and resourceful. Lu Li had asked her to command. He wanted to partic.i.p.ate in the fight himself to improve his abilities. Besides, given that the major of the warriors were from the Clouds Plains, it was not his place to order them around.
Those from the Clouds Plains were actually looking at Chee-kar and G.o.d of Meng with confusion and hostility. After all, they were from ancient races. Humans and the ancient races were feuds. How could the two sides fight together?
But they could not voice their doubt in the presence of the Human Sovereign Realm warriors and they were afraid to reveal their hostility.
Lu Li divided the warriors into 10 group and those from Deserted World and Northern Desert were in one group in case they would conflict with the Clouds Plains" worries. At the beginning, no tactics were used. The mission was to clean the nearby territory of Fire Leopards.
"Gather at the entrance of the valley!"
Lu Ling ordered. More than 1000 warriors went as she said. Ye Cha went to lure a group of Fire Leopards over.
The warriors were not familiar with Fire Leopards yet. Lu Ling planned for the Human Sovereign Realm warriors to fight some Fire Leopards for a while so the others could learn. In this case, a huge casualty from unpreparedness could be avoided.
The warriors crowded at the valley entrance. Soon, Ye Cha lured over hundreds of Fire Leopards. He had been slowing down and only picked up his speed again when he arrived at the valley entrance.
The divine formation was quite miraculous. From where the warriors were standing, they could not see the illusion. They watched as the Fire Leopards rushed over and they sensed the Fire Leopards" energy. The warriors held on tight to their weapons, ready to engage at any time.
But they didn"t take actions now that Lu Ling hadn"t given the order yet. They were also rea.s.sured by the presence of Human Sovereign Realm warriors in the front.
The warriors were stunned by what happened next. After making their way to near the opening of the valley, the Fire Leopards began to wander around. In their vertical eyes there were deep-rooted terror. A Fire Leopard was only 3000 feet away but it seemed like the Fire Leopard hadn"t seen the warriors. It just kept circling around the valley opening…
"Hu Lang, Qu Cheng, G.o.d of Meng, Lian Yi, He Ni, you are up!"
Lu Ling waved her hand. Five Human Sovereign Realm warriors rushed out, alarming the Fire Leopards. Then they surrounded the Fire Leopards up.
