"Buzzing!"
Lu Li took out the Wicked Bead, wanting to go in at once. What happened next shocked him.
The Wicked Bead glowed, but he could not go in. Clearly, the space here was confined.
In Lu Li's Soul Pond, the silver dragon began to move around, consuming the energy that came in.
The soul attacks here seemed ferocious, but for Lu Li, it was not too stressful.
The blue flames enveloped him. Lu Li felt the heat was unbearable. Luckily, the Relic armor could stand it. It would take several days and nights for Lu Li to be burnt to death.
The immortal's body was fine as well. Neither the soul attacks nor the flames could harm him. The immortal's body kept on attacking Blazing Huo.
Lu Li and the immortal's body were fine, but the Deaf Taoist seemed to be losing.
The Deaf Taoist was strong, but he did not have a Relic armor. He was made of flesh. Soon, he would be burnt to death under such horrifying flames.
"Swish!"
Lu Li could not sit around and wait for death. The immortal's body was chasing after Blazing Huo. Lu Li swung his Relic weapon and smashed at the walls.
As long as the formations on the walls could be broken, at least the Deaf Taoist could escape, or Lu Li could use the Wicked Bead.
"Boom!"
The blood-red ray of sword light landed on the wall. Once again, Lu Li was astonished.
The Slayer's move was powerful, but it did not inflict any damage on the walls.
"The underground palace has a strong defense formation!"
Lu Li had an idea. This formation must be similar to the one protecting the Demon-slaying City. It must have been built for many years and had absorbed and stored a lot of energy. To crack it in a short time would be difficult.
"Charge —"
Lu Li reacted quickly. If he could not crack the formation, then he would kill Blazing Huo first. After all, they could not leave and Blazing Huo could not run away.
As for … whether the Deaf Taoist could survive would depend on his luck.
"Swish!"
Lu Li aimed at Blazing Huo. Blazing Huo still had black flames and he could gather the blue flames around him to form a shield.
However, Lu Li and the immortal's body worked together and kept attacking. Blazing Huo's black flames were being consumed and he was smashed away again and again.
"How …"
Blazing Huo saw that Lu Li was standing in the flames as if nothing had happened. More importantly, his soul was not affected at all. Blazing Huo was taken aback. His face paled.
The Soul Divine Array here was not set up by him, it was formed naturally. He set up the Fierce Flame Array here because he valued the Soul Divine Array here.
But Lu Li was not affected at all.
According to his original plan, as long as Lu Li's soul was affected, Lu Li would die.
Then, he could burn Lu Li down with the flames. By then, the three Relics would all be his.
"Boom, boom, boom ~"
After being sent flying again and again, Blazing Huo grew anxious. There was not much black flame left in his body. At most, he could withstand a few hundred attacks.
Without the black flames, he would not be able to condense the [Li Fire Shield], and that would be the end of him.
"How can Lu Li's soul be so strong?
This doesn't make sense, right?
Could it be that he has a soul defense divine artifact? "
Blazing Huo remembered that in the Nightmare of Darkness, Lu Li woke up as well. Blazing Huo had a bad feeling.
Blazing Huo made up his mind. He released what was left of the Corpse Flame and the Ghost Flame.
As soon as the two types of flames were released, the temperature in the underground plaza was raised by several times. The Deaf Taoist rolled around on the ground in pain. His skin was burning. A smell of burnt flesh spread in the underground plaza.
"Ghost Flame, Ghost Flame, go!"
Blazing Huo controlled the Ghost Flame and the Ghost Flame to fly toward Lu Li. If the two types of flames could not burn Lu Li to death, then there would be nothing Blazing Huo could do.
"Well …"
The two types of flames came. Before they were close, Lu Li already felt it.
The Relics were strong. However, when the strength reached a certain level, the Relics would not be able to stand it. Inevitably, the heat of the flames seeped in and burned Lu Li's body.
However!
Lu Li's physical body was strong and he had the Dragon Armor on. His skin was covered with dragon scales that kept the heat away.
He felt much better. Painful as it was, he could not be burned to death.
"Whoosh!"
His body flashed and made an arc, striking at Blazing Huo in the distance.
Blazing Huo felt hopeless when he saw the blood-red ray of sword light. He had used his two strongest types of flames, but they could not burn Lu Li to death. Blazing Huo could not escape this time.
"Lu Li, stop!"
When Blazing Huo came back to his senses, he shouted, "Do not push me too far or I will activate the formation and explode it. This formation has been accumulating energy for decades. By then, we will all be killed. If you don't want to die, we will talk."
Lu Li stopped at a distance from the Corpse Flame and the Ghost Flame. He could protect himself with the Dragon Armor. Looking at Blazing Huo coldly, Lu Li asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
"Simple!"
Blazing Huo wiped off the blood on the corner of his mouth. Then, he built a wall of fire to stop the immortal's body. Blazing Huo said, "I did murder your father. But in the end, your father was fine.
But four of my men died.
You have been hunting me down for a long time. I have lost all my dignity. We are even now.
I promise that I will not be your enemy. You can leave now. What do you say? "
"Even?"
Lu Li sneered. "You are overthinking. If you are not sincere, then don't say it."
"Wait!"
Blazing Huo was about to attack again. Blazing Huo was anxious. "What do you want?
Name your terms! "
Lu Li thought about it and said, "It is simple. Surrender to me and come with me to attack the Yan Family.
After I level the nine universes, I will set you free. Also … I will spare the Huo Family. "
"Surrender?"
Blazing Huo was enraged. Who was he?
He was one of the most powerful warriors in the nine universes, the forefather of the Huo Family, the No. 2 of the Purgatory's Top 10. How could he surrender to a kid like Lu Li?
Would this be more painful than killing him?
"You wish!" Blazing Huo yelled without hesitation, "You want me to be your slave?
Are you out of your mind? "
"I don't care. The Deaf Taoist will be my slave all the same.
To tell you the truth, Chen Tianxian is my slave as well! "
Lu Li said coldly. Waving the Relic weapon in his hand, he said, "If you cannot let go of your dignity, then go to hell.
Later on, I promise I will send all your Huo Family disciples to hell so that your family can be reunited! "
As for soul slaves, Lu Li didn't care too much about them.
Having too many soul slaves might affect his cultivation. He could not learn the Map of Fundamental Principle. He was not sure if it was because of soul slaves.
Blazing Huo was powerful, especially when it came to flames. He might be able to break the Divine Imperial City.
Therefore, Lu Li gave Blazing Huo a chance. Also, he did not want the Deaf Taoist to be burned alive.
Since Blazing Huo would not come to his senses, Lu Li did not want to talk anymore.
"Swish!"
The blood-red ray of sword light whooshed on. On the other side, the immortal's body broke through the wall of fire and began to attack again. Blazing Huo was smashed away again and again.
Blazing Huo was in despair. He was struggling inside.
He did not have much time left in his life. One or two hundred years at most.
He could not make the final step in this lifetime. He had known this for many years.
He was not afraid of death. Dying with dignity was better than living like a dog.
The problem was, what would the Huo Family do after he died?
Apart from him, the Huo Family had no other powerful warriors.
Over the years in the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos, Blazing Huo had offended many people. If he died, Lu Li would not have to do anything for the Huo Family.
"Stop it …"
