Lu Li did not want to rely on the immortal's body or the Deaf Taoist for the rest of his life.
He had just entered the Divinity and had no place to settle down or means to protect himself.
Lu Li was happy that the Deaf Taoist and the immortal's body had improved. At the very least, his safety was guaranteed.
Especially when Yan Tiangang was concerned about Lu Li's life. Now that there was the first ambush, there would be more to come.
Both open and covert attacks would come. Without the immortal's body and the Deaf Taoist, Lu Li would not be able to survive.
"Bang, bang!"
Not long afterward, the other two immortals were killed as well.
The Deaf Taoist's attacks were too ferocious. The two immortals could not get away.
"Cremate the bodies!"
When the five immortals were killed, Lu Li dashed over and put away all the Relic armors and weapons.
The two small round tripods were put away just like the five's Interspatial Rings. The immortal's body was put away in the Wicked Bead at once. The immortal's body could not be exposed to the outside world or else it would be a disaster.
The Deaf Taoist poured out black flames and burned the five immortals together. The Deaf Taoist dug a hole to bury the ashes.
"Let's go!"
With that done, Lu Li and the Deaf Taoist ran away. They found a small tunnel and went in. Then, they dug a tunnel and hid.
…
"What?"
In a castle in the Valley of Vicissitudes, a bird-eyed prefecture warrior was holding five jade talismans that suddenly exploded. His bird-eyed prefecture warrior was shocked.
"What is going on?"
Next to him was a prefecture warrior who was also wearing a blue armor. He should be a prefecture warrior of the Vicissitudes House.
"Dead. The five I sent out are dead!"
The bird-eyed prefecture warrior said with doubt, "How can this Lu Li be so powerful?
The five of them are experienced.
They have been at the Mountain of Vicissitudes for nearly ten thousand years and never left. They have been plundering and bullying newcomers. How can they die in the hands of Lu Li?
Long Shan … who is this Lu Li? "
The prefecture warrior shook his head. "I don't know. Someone asked me to capture or kill him. How can a newly ascended immortal be so powerful?
Li Qiang, let me make it clear … if you cannot capture or kill Lu Li, you will only get 10 percent of the reward. "
"I know the rules."
The triangular-eyed Li Qiang sneered a few times. The muscles on his face trembled as he patted Long Shan's shoulder and said, "Long Shan, don't be anxious. I will arrange for a few more ruthless characters.
How dare the laborers in the Valley of Vicissitudes disobey me?
If there is no other way, I will think of a way to do it myself. I will definitely get these one million divine roots! "
"It would be best to capture them alive!" Long Shan thought for a moment and said, "If we capture them alive and send them out of the Valley of Vicissitudes, the price will be five times higher.
Why don't you … take him out by force?
He dares to disobey the order of the Official Army? "
"This won't do!"
Li Qiang shook his head and said, "It's not like you don't know Commander Ye's character. It's fine to do some little tricks in the dark, but if things get out of hand, I won't be able to bear the consequences of Commander Ye's wrath."
"Alright, alright."
Long Shan nodded and said, "Then I'll leave the valley first and wait for you outside for a while."
"Don't worry!"
Li Qiang revealed a sinister smile and said, "He's just a newly ascended god. Isn't it easy to play him to death?
If I don't kill him, my name isn't Li Qiang. "
…
Lu Li did not know that the bird-eyed man was plotting against him. Lu Li and the Deaf Taoist dug deeper. They only stopped after they had dug for over a hundred miles.
"Deaf Taoist, take care of your wounds first."
The Deaf Taoist was injured when he was risking his life. Lu Li protected him so that he could recover.
Lu Li even gave the Deaf Taoist two pieces of Spring Gold so that the Deaf Taoist could consume them.
The Deaf Taoist recovered after half a day. This time, it was the Deaf Taoist's turn to protect Lu Li because Lu Li was going to take control of a Relic armor.
Lu Li's physical body was not weak. But with the Relic armor, his defense would be stronger.
It seemed that the Relic armor was hard to destroy. Not even the immortal's body could crack the Relic armor.
Relic armors and weapons were not that valuable. Of the five immortals, five had Relic weapons and armors. Lu Li got five sets of Relic weapons and armors and two artifacts at once.
"Deaf Taoist, do you need to take control of a Relic weapon?"
Lu Li remembered something. The Deaf Taoist's stone column was too long. It was not easy to wield it in the cave.
The Deaf Taoist thought of the same thing. He nodded and Lu Li gave the sawtooth saber to the Deaf Taoist.
Using Divine Energy to take control of Relic weapons and armors was fast. In the past, it would take Lu Li several months to take control of a Relic armor. This time, it only took him half a day.
"Buzzing ~"
Lu Li's body glowed as a silver armor appeared. Together with his white skin, he looked awe-inspiring.
Lu Li took out another saber. This saber was thick and heavy, and the lines were not to Lu Li's liking.
That being said, the other weapons were not suitable for him. Lu Li decided to take control of this one.
After a day or two, Lu Li and the Deaf Taoist had both taken control of the weapons. Their abilities were enhanced again.
"Right, the Interspatial Rings!"
Lu Li remembered the five's Interspatial Rings. He wondered if there were more Relic weapons, armors, or skills.
He took out the five's Interspatial Rings and took a look. Lu Li's pupils contracted. He was overjoyed!
There were not many Relic weapons and armors in the five's Interspatial Rings, only two. There were not many skills, either. There was only one sheepskin scroll. What surprised Lu Li was — Spring Gold!
There was a large amount of Spring Gold in the five's Interspatial Rings, over a thousand pieces in total. Lu Li only had to hand in 10 pieces every month and he could only get over a hundred pieces in a year.
Now, he had over a thousand pieces of Spring Gold. That was to say, from now on, he didn't have to dig for Spring Gold anymore. He could just hand in the required amount every month.
"Let's go back!"
Without any hesitation, Lu Li decided to go back to the Valley of Vicissitudes because it was absolutely safe there.
Who dared to start a fight in the Valley of Vicissitudes?
Not even prefecture warriors could give him trouble for no reason. He just had to cultivate in the castle and wait for a year to pass. Then, he would be qualified as a prefecture citizen and could leave the Valley of Vicissitudes.
Lu Li told the Deaf Taoist about the situation. The latter agreed. There were over ten thousand slaves in the Valley of Vicissitudes.
The immortal's body was powerful. However, if the bird-eyed prefecture warrior sent more powerful immortals or even dozens of immortals, Lu Li could be killed.
"Here is one hundred pieces of Spring Gold. Consume them all."
Lu Li gave the Deaf Taoist one hundred pieces of Spring Gold. The latter was overjoyed.
After refining these 100 pieces of Azure Sun Gold, his battle prowess would probably increase by a large margin.
"Take care of Little White!"
Lu Li gave all the Divine Sources to the Deaf Taoist and let him into the Wicked Bead. Then, he rushed out of the mine.
He had encountered many slaves along the way. Lu Li had been on guard in case he was assassinated.
Luckily, nobody tried to harm him. He returned to the castle in the Valley of Vicissitudes safely and activated the Inhibition Formation to cultivate.
"You are back?"
Not long after Lu Li came back, bird-eyed Li Qiang received the news. Li Qiang pulled a long face. If Lu Li never went down the mine, Li Qiang would have a headache.
