There were Teleportation Formations in the Inferno and the Prison of Wood, which didn't cost Lu Li much time. In the Prison of Earth, Lu Li had to rely on the Wicked Bead to travel.
That being said, the Wicked Bead was fast. It would only take him four or five days to get to the entrance of the Prison of Water and another four or five days to get to the Paleo-beast Realm from the Prison of Water. The round trip would take him one month at most.
In the Prison of Earth, Lu Li confirmed the direction and flew the Wicked Bead in a straight line.
Regardless of the fact that his body had not recovered yet, he entered the Transcendent State to study the Slayer's move.
Previously, he had used the Slayer's move many times. Theoretically speaking, there was a good chance that he could learn the Slayer's move.
Of course, there was no guarantee. After all, the Slayer was a super warrior in the Divinity. No matter how simple the move he created was, it would not be easy for someone to learn it.
Four or five days passed by in a blink. In the Transcendent State, time passed quickly. When He Yue woke him up, Lu Li thought it had only been half a day.
"Five days?"
Lu Li was surprised. He used psychic power to check. In the distance, he could faintly see a huge mountain. He smiled a bitter smile.
He had learned nothing during the five days. How could it be so fast?
At the towering mountain, Lu Li dashed out and entered the Prison of Water. He confirmed the direction and let the Wicked Bead fly on. Only then did he have the time to ask, "How is the Great Land?"
"Not bad!"
He Yue's answer was a relief to Lu Li. He Yue said, "The Semi-God Realm warriors have split up. They have taken control of many warriors and armies to gather the civilians.
The Red Lunar City, the City of Mystic Armor, and the City of Immortals Inquires have gathered tens of millions of people. In a month or two, hundreds of millions of people will be gathered. "
"Those bastards!" Lu Li cursed, clenching his teeth. He clenched his fists and his face was twisted.
He Yue paused for a moment. She did not withhold any information. "Lord, the Semi-God Realm warriors at the City of Mystic Armor and the City of Immortals Inquires are violent. They have killed many people. Some small cities were leveled to the ground. At least tens of millions of people have died …"
This time, Lu Li did not curse. He was just more ferocious, and he was filled with killing intent.
Master of Haechi and He Yue were terrified. They were afraid that Lu Li would lose control of himself and kill them.
Ke Mang pulled a long face as well. After all, he was from the Heaven Reverse Universe. Those Semi-God Realm warriors slaughtered at will in the Heaven Reverse Universe. He was furious.
"Hu hu!"
Lu Li took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He entered the Transcendent State directly to cultivate.
Those who complained were cowards. True experts would only work hard to become stronger and rely on their own strength to solve problems.
The world didn't believe in tears, it only believed in fists and strength.
Another four to five days passed. Lu Li was woken up again. His face was gloomy. Clearly, the several days of cultivation had not yielded any results.
He used his psychic power to scan the surroundings. It took him half a day to find the entrance to the Paleo-beast Realm.
"Ke Mang, open the seal!"
The entrance was sealed off by Ke Mang, which was why Lu Li brought him here.
After Ke Mang was teleported out, he easily opened the seal.
"Go in!"
Lu Li and Ke Mang stepped into the passageway and appeared in the dragon fortress.
He let Master of Haechi and He Yue out to deal with the situation outside. He didn't want to see any beasts in the Paleo-beast Realm.
"Ke Mang, I will cultivate for 10 more days. Wake me up in 10 days!"
It was too dangerous to consume the headless body. One mistake and he might end up as the headless body's companion.
Yan Gu and the others had not started a large-scale slaughter yet. Lu Li still had some time. He wanted to see if he could learn the Slayer's move in 10 days.
Lu Li went back to the Wicked Bead with Ke Mang guarding him. Master of Haechi went out to meet the higher-ups of the paleo-beasts who stayed to guard the Paleo-beast Realm.
The powerful ones in the Paleo-beast Realm were all killed and the major species were wiped out. But there was no turmoil. It was peaceful.
Ten days later, Ke Mang attacked the Wicked Bead and woke Lu Li up. He came out from the Wicked Bead. He was neither happy nor sad, but in the depth of his eyes, there was disappointment and bitterness.
"It seems that I am not destined to learn the Slayer's move!"
Lu Li sighed. This time, he had been studying for 20 days, but he had gained nothing.
Either he was not destined to learn the Slayer's move or he could not learn it at his current realm.
"Forget it!"
Lu Li shook his head. He put the Slayer's move aside and pinned his last hope on the headless body.
He turned to Ke Mang and asked, "Have you collected the skills of refining corpses that I asked you to?"
Last time when he came back from the Paleo-beast Realm, Lu Li told Ke Mang that he remembered some paleo-beasts had such skills.
Ke Mang did not disappoint him. He took out two books from his Interspatial Ring and handed them to Lu Li. Then, he looked at Lu Li with concern and asked, "Saint Lord, are you really going to take the risk?"
"I have nowhere else to go …"
Lu Li forced a smile. He waved his hand to stop Ke Mang from saying more. Lu Li focused on the two books of refining corpses, which were developed by the ancient races.
Neither of the two books was complicated. Refining corpses was no different from making puppets. Corpses were just a special kind of puppets.
Lu Li chose one that seemed to be of an advanced level. This secret skill required Dead Soul Charms to be made.
The charms could be inserted into the corpse. When 108 Dead Soul Charms were inserted and a spiritual connection was established, the corpse would be under Lu Li's control.
Lu Li chose this skill for the sake of safety.
He could use the Dead Soul Charms from a distance. In this way, he would not have to be too close to the headless body and he would not be crushed to death by the strong energy of the corpse.
Lu Li thought for two hours. Then, he shouted, "Master of Haechi, come in. Help me collect some materials."
Dead Soul Charms required some special Mystical Materials. If the Paleo-beast Realm did not have such materials, then it would be troublesome. Lu Li would have to go back to the Prison of Wood and ask for more from Patriarch of Law Enforcement or Lu Zhengyang.
Fortunately, even though the materials needed to make Dead Soul Charms were special, the Paleo-beast Realm was vast. Master of Haechi went out and brought back all the materials Lu Li needed in four hours.
"Dead Soul Charms!"
Lu Li locked himself in the castle. He decided to make as many Dead Soul Charms as he could in three days. Three days later, he would go down to the Pond of Dragons to consume that headless body.
The Dead Soul Charms were easy to make, but it consumed a lot of Lu Li's spiritual energy. He spent two days making many Dead Soul Charms. Then, he rested for a day. On the third day, he set off.
"Ke Mang, I am going down!"
In the Path of Rising Dragons, Lu Li asked Ke Mang to deactivate the Inhibition Formations. Then, he said, "If something horrifying happens down there or if my jade talisman of soul breaks, you must leave the Paleo-beast Realm at once and destroy the passageway.
Go back to the Prison of Wood and tell Patriarch of Law Enforcement to live a good life in the Prison of Wood … "
"Whoosh!"
