With the Golden Ancient Coffin as a weapon, Lu Li could hurt the Red Phosphorus Hawks much faster. Every time, he could smash away one or two Red Phosphorus Hawks.
Within the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the surrounding mountains and fields were filled with injured Red Phosphorus Hawks.
Many of the vicious birds had their wings broken, unable to fly. They could only flap their wings on the ground, rolling and crying out. Many of the surrounding stone peaks were knocked down, and the ground was full of scratch marks. It was a complete mess.
After the time it took for three sticks of incense to burn, there were less than ten Red Phosphorus Hawks left in the sky. The danger was almost over.
Lu Li was so tired that he was gasping for air. He put down the coffin and stopped attacking. Those Red Phosphorus Hawks were scared out of their wits and no longer dared to approach him.
The Golden Ancient Coffin crashed heavily onto the ground, causing the ground to tremble. The corner of Young Mistress Yi's mouth twitched.
The wreckage inside had probably been completely shattered, right?
That was her ancestor …
"Ha!"
After Elder Hong sent a Red Phosphorus Hawk flying, he glanced around and decisively ordered, "Prepare to retreat. We can't stay here any longer. The cries of so many Red Phosphorus Hawks will attract more Xuan Beasts."
"What about the ancestral coffin?"
Young Lady Yi was anxious. If they retreated, there would be no one guarding the Ancestral Coffin. They couldn't possibly leave the Ancestral Coffin here, right?
"Don't worry about it. The Ancestral Coffin is protected by restrictions. Xuan Beasts can't destroy it."
Old Hong pondered for a moment and waved his hand.
Lu Li had an idea. He quickly pulled the Coffin of Ancestor to a small hill. Then he jumped up and kicked at the coffin.
The hill cracked and the soil slid down, burying the coffin. Lu Li jumped down and said, "Now, no Xuan Beasts will notice your coffin."
"Alright, retreat!"
Lady Yi took a few glances and waved her saber to repel a Red Phosphorus Hawk. She signaled the escorts to retreat. However, Lu Li became anxious and shouted in a deep voice, "Wait, Lady Yi, you haven't given me the Body Refinement Pellet yet."
"…"
Lady Yi rolled her eyes, stared at Lu Li, and nodded to Patriarch Hong.
The latter took out a small bag and threw it over. He also threw a guard's saber over and said, "Brat, there are ten Body Tempering Dans in here. I'll give them all to you. Take this saber to protect yourself."
"Thank you, my lord."
Lu Li took the saber and opened the bag to have a look. His eyes were filled with joy.
He cupped his hands in greeting and turned to leave. He was very worried about his sister's safety because of the Beast Tide.
"Wait!"
Lady Yi called out. Lu Li turned around in confusion.
After a pause, Lady Yi said, "Today, you have helped us. If you want to join the Liu Family, you can come to the Wu Ling County to look for me after the Beast Upheaval is over."
Lady Yi used to look down on Lu Li because he could not cultivate Xuan Energy.
Today, Lu Li had demonstrated powerful combat capacity, especially his sword skills that were as fast as lightning. Lady Yi had a whole new level of respect for him.
Furthermore, he had saved her life, so she extended an olive branch to him.
"Alright, thank you, Miss."
Lu Li was delighted again. The Liu Family was the Overlord of the Wu Ling County, a Third-rank Family.
Once he joined the Liu Family, even Di Ba would have to bow his head to him. He could bring his sister to live in the Wu Ling County and he would not have to worry about Di Ba making trouble for him.
Elder Hong and the guards forced the last few Red Phosphorus Hawks to retreat, and immediately retreated with Miss Yi.
They didn't go to the Black Hawk Ridge. There was a shield there that ordinary mystical beasts couldn't break through. If a powerful mystical beast appeared, they would just be sending themselves to their deaths.
Lu Li ran wildly into the night. He didn't dare to go to the Black Hawk Ridge either, so he had to run towards the south.
There were no mountain paths in the south, so he could only climb over the mountains and move forward with great difficulty.
"Roar ~"
From time to time came the loud roars of the mystical beasts from the north. Fortunately, the distance was quite far, so the threat couldn't reach here.
Lu Li didn't care about it anymore and focused on his journey.
He carried his saber and ran like a wild beast in the wilderness. After more than three miles, he found the mountain path back to the tribe.
After the time it took for several incense sticks to burn, he passed by a tribe. Although the tribe was a bit noisy, there were no Xuan Beasts attacking. Lu Li was relieved.
This tribe was to the north of the Di Long Tribe. It was safe here, so the Di Long Tribe must be fine.
Lu Li strode forward. After an hour, he finally arrived at the outside of the tribe.
The tribe was brightly lit, and it was chaotic and noisy. Obviously, the roars of the mystical beasts in the north had startled them.
Lu Li saw a familiar figure outside the fence. He immediately shouted, "Sister!"
"Phew ~"
Lu Ling, who was standing in the corner, let out a sigh of relief when she saw Lu Li coming back safely.
Many old women outside cursed Lu Li in a low voice when they saw him. They looked at Lu Li with cold eyes. No matter how they looked at Lu Li and his sister, they didn't like him.
"Let's go home."
Lu Ling saw that Lu Li's face turned gloomy. She smiled and didn't mind at all.
After entering her own stone house, she asked, "Why are you so late today? Is there a beast tide in the north?
I heard the roars of many Xuan Beasts. "
"Yes!"
Lu Li nodded and explained the situation to her.
He was afraid that Lu Ling would blame him, so he didn't mention that he went to rescue Lady Yi and the others. He only mentioned that he encountered some low rank Xuan Beasts which delayed him.
However, he told her that Miss Yi was willing to recommend him to join the Liu Family.
"You got the Body Tempering Pill?
Miss Liu also said that she could recommend you to join the Liu Family? "
Lu Ling's pale face became rosy. She nodded and said, "After you finish your meal, go and consume the Body Refinement Pellet. When the Beast Upheaval is over, we will go to the Wu Ling County to awaken your Bloodline."
"Alright!"
Lu Li walked to the table and started wolfing down his food. He thought about it and asked, "Sis, will the Beast Upheaval spread over here?
Should I refine the Body Tempering Pill tomorrow? "
"I'm fine."
Lu Ling said disapprovingly, "There are so many super powerful warriors in the Ice Abyss. The Beast Upheaval might have been triggered by them. How could they just stand by and watch people being plunged into misery and suffering?
Don't worry, they will definitely suppress the beast tide. "
"That's true …"
Lu Li remembered the Ancient Chariot he saw at the Black Hawk Ridge and the several powerful warriors in golden armors. He was a bit relieved.
Since the powerful warriors of the Super Families had taken action, they would definitely get involved. At the very least, they would suppress the powerful Xuan Beasts.
After the meal, Lu Li quietly went out to observe the tribe. After making sure that there were no Xuan Beasts nearby, he went back to his room to consume the Body Refinement Pellet.
He consumed five Body Refinement Pellets at once. He dared not to consume more. Five pellets was enough for him to increase his strength to more than 11,000 pounds.
While he was consuming the pellets, he heard another loud roar coming from the north. From time to time, there would be noises in the tribe. It seemed that the people in the tribe would not be able to sleep peacefully tonight.
"Sis, I will sleep for a while. Wake me up if anything happens."
After consuming the Body Refinement Pellet, Lu Li was too sleepy to keep his eyes open. He walked out of his room and called out to Lu Ling. After Lu Ling responded, Lu Li climbed into bed and soon fell asleep.
After a while, Lu Ling limped in with a book in her hand. She sat by Lu Li's bed.
It was too noisy outside. She did not want to sleep. She planned to spend the night reading.
For the first half of the night, there were constant roars of beasts in the north. The tribe was never quiet, and children were crying.
Lu Li was really tired. He had pulled six coffins and fought with a flock of Red Phosphorus Hawks while wielding the Golden Ancient Coffin. He had consumed five Body Refinement Pellets. Even thunder could not wake him up …
The animal tooth pendant on his neck was glowing, blinking. Lu Ling was not worried.
This thing was left to Lu Li by her father. Lu Li had been in good health recently. The animal tooth pendant glowing was clearly beneficial to Lu Li.
"Di Huo and Di Han are back with their men!"
"Okay, let's go back to sleep. Huo, Han, and Tian are here. Nothing will happen."
"Okay, we can rest assured now that Di Huo is back …"
In the middle of the night, there was a noise outside. Lu Ling stopped flipping through the book and frowned.
Because of the Beast Upheaval, Di Huo had brought his men back?
Would he fly into a rage when he saw Di Hu and Di Gu's injuries and go to Lu Li's door to make trouble?
Di Huo was the most powerful warrior of the young generation in the tribe. He was at the peak of the Xuan Wu Realm. Lu Li had not cultivated his Xuan Energy yet. He was no match for Di Huo.
"Hmm!"
