Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
Lu Li never came out after he entered the Wicked Bead, nor did he make any noise. It was as if he had vanished.
If it were not for the fact that the Wicked Bead was floating in the air, many would have forgotten about Lu Li.
During the three months, nearly a hundred Semi-God Realm warriors had been attacking day and night. Many of them had been attacking with all their might.
However, the result after three months frustrated many people. The Divine Imperial City showed no reaction. Every time they attacked, the glow would not brighten, just like the first time.
Even the Deaf Taoist and Blazing Huo were getting impatient. That being said, they dared not to disobey Lu Li's orders. That being said, they did not take action against those who were slacking off. Instead, they would use warning looks from time to time.
Not only the others, but even Lu Renhuang was doubting himself.
Was this city something that could be breached by humans?
Not even an Immortal could break it. How could a group of Semi-God Realm cultivators?
He and many others had pinned their hopes on Lu Li. After all, Lu Li had killed Yan Zhen who was wearing a Relic.
Maybe Lu Li had made a breakthrough after some time of closed-door cultivation. Or … Lu Li had studied for a while and figured out a way to break the Relic's city.
Due to the presence of Blazing Huo and the Deaf Taoist, none of the Semi-God Realm warriors dared to leave. Even though their attacks were weak, they would not slack off all the time.
Lu Li stayed in the hall of the Wicked Bead. He had been so absorbed in the study of Inhibition Formations that he had forgotten about time and everything in the outside world.
In the past, he was very disgusted with things like Array Formations and Restrictions. Otherwise, he would have already started studying them.
Recently, however, he discovered that he had fallen in love with this thing. The more he delved into the study of array formations, the more unfathomable and addictive he felt.
He had now completed the accumulation of the simplest basic knowledge, but he did not immediately look at the three books on breaking arrays. Instead, he began to systematically study from simple to complex.
He even had the urge to refine some basic tools. He definitely wouldn't be able to refine divine tools, but it wouldn't be bad to be able to refine some profound level tools.
However, he knew that he didn't have that much time now. If he had time in the future, he could slowly explore it.
If they could craft a Legendary Weapon and leave it for the Lu Family, they would have more backing.
He didn't look at the three books on breaking arrays because he knew that with his current knowledge, he wouldn't be able to comprehend them.
Restrictive Array Formations were too profound, complex, and mysterious. It was impossible to reach the heavens in a short period of time.
Right now, he was only learning about the basics of formations and restrictions. Once he grasped the basics of formations and restrictions, he would be able to further study the knowledge of divine formations.
Only by comprehending part of the knowledge of divine arrays could one study how to break them.
If you don't understand something, how can you decipher it?
Lu Li planned to study for another three months to see if he could master the basic knowledge of formations from the Divinity. After that, he would spend several more months to figure out how to crack formations from the Divinity.
He Yue had been monitoring the situation outside. She had subsidiary bodies in the Prison of Gold, the Prison of Water, the Prison of Earth, the Prison of Wood, the Heaven Reverse Realm and the Water Plain Region. Nothing could escape her detection.
Since He Yue didn't remind him, Lu Li chose to forget about what was going on outside. He immersed himself in the study of Inhibition Formations.
…
Lu Li had thought that after three months of study, he would have some basic knowledge of Inhibition Formations and Inhibition Formations.
Three months later, he realized that he was wrong, ridiculously wrong.
In the first three months, he had read at least one hundred books. In the next three months, he had read another one hundred books. Even so, he realized that what he had learned was still limited.
The study of Inhibition Formations was broad and profound. The more he studied, the more abstruse and mysterious he found it.
He had a feeling that he would have to read at least one-third of the tens of thousands of books here to master the basic knowledge of Inhibition Formations.
He picked up the three books on cracking formations from the Divinity and read them for several days to verify his theory.
However, after three days, he was defeated. He was right. Formations from the Divinity were too complicated. Given what he had learned, he could not understand the three books …
In six months, he had read less than three hundred books.
There were twenty to thirty thousand books here. To study the three books on cracking formations from the Divinity, he would have to read at least ten thousand books!
By the way …
To read ten thousand books, it would take him at least 20 years.
After all, he was not just reading. He had to study the contents in the books. The later books would be more and more difficult to learn.
In 20 years, all the Semi-God Realm warriors out there would have run away.
Who would attack the Relic City for 20 years?
Lu Li stopped. He decided to go to the Prison of Wind to see if he could become an immortal.
Twenty years was a long time. Not even he could wait that long.
He came out from the Wicked Bead. He took a look and noticed that the others were attacking feebly. Less than half of the nearly one hundred Semi-God Realm warriors were attacking with full strength.
The others were putting on a show. As a matter of fact, they were not doing much.
Lu Li took another look at the Imperial City. Nothing changed, just like the first day. It was as if the city would never be breached.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Lu Li's appearance attracted many people's attention. Many people's eyes glowed.
They wanted to see if Lu Li had made any breakthrough after cultivating for half a year or if he could find a way to crack the Divine Imperial City.
"Blazing Huo, Deaf Taoist, come here!"
Lu Li shouted and nodded to Lu Renhuang. The three of them flew over at once.
Two miles later, Lu Li explained, "I need to go to the Prison of Wind to see if I can become an immortal."
The Deaf Taoist and Blazing Huo did not have the courage to ask questions. Lu Renhuang asked, "Lu Li, you cannot crack the Divine Imperial City now?"
"Yes!"
Lu Li nodded. "Formations from the Divinity are too complicated. It will take me at least a dozen years to learn a way to crack them. I want to try to become an immortal."
Lu Renhuang's eyes glowed. "Are you confident that you can become an immortal?"
"Yes!"
Lu Li said with certainty, "I am confident. It is only a matter of time before I become an immortal."
"Okay. Off you go. We will take care of this!"
Lu Renhuang was exhilarated. Lu Li becoming an immortal was more delightful than breaking the Divine Imperial City.
Lu Li did have some confidence that he could become an immortal. He had gained some new insights from the study of Inhibition Formations.
Even though it did not seem to be of much help at the moment, it could give him a hand at critical moments and help him become an immortal.
"Whoosh!"
After a moment of discussion with the three, Lu Li flew back. He glanced at the others and shouted, "Thank you for your hard work. I have seen what you have done.
I am confident that I can break the Divine Imperial City. What I lack now is a critical material. Keep it up. When I come back, we will break into the Divine Imperial City together and divide the Yan Family's wealth. "
With that said, Lu Li glanced over to everyone with dignity and added, "I hope you will not slack off when I am not here.
Blazing Huo and the Deaf Taoist are short-tempered. Do not make them unhappy. "
