Lu Li had always been kind to his subordinates, including his soul slaves. Lu Li believed that he had been kind to the Deaf Taoist. He had offered to let the Deaf Taoist go many times and even gave him many materials for cultivation.
But the Deaf Taoist was using him.
What Lu Li hated the most was being threatened, betrayed, and lied to.
Even though the Deaf Taoist was not completely betraying him by using him, Lu Li was still angry.
Fortunately, when the Deaf Taoist reported to the Ancient Demons Dead Ground, he did not instigate Lu Li. Instead, he told Lu Li about the situation objectively. What the Deaf Taoist said was basically true.
Otherwise, Lu Li would not show any mercy and would have killed the Deaf Taoist.
The Deaf Taoist was frightened. For years, this was the first time that Lu Li had lost his temper. He was like a furious beast king.
This reminded the Deaf Taoist of the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos. Back then, Lu Li was just as horrifying as he was right now.
"Master, please calm down. I was wrong …"
The Deaf Taoist kept kowtowing. Lu Li did not look at him. He turned to the forest of stones. The Deaf Taoist did not say another word. He knelt on the ground. Since Lu Li did not say anything, the Deaf Taoist had to stay on his knees.
He knelt for two hours. Finally, Blood Fairy responded. She said to Lu Li, "Okay, master, I think I have figured it out. If everything goes well, I can promise you that you can go through the forest of stones easily."
"Okay!" Lu Li nodded. He glanced at the Deaf Taoist and said, "Do you want to kneel here for the rest of your life?"
With that said, Lu Li strode forward. The Deaf Taoist kowtowed three times in joy and followed Lu Li. Two people and one dead body entered the forest of stones.
"Buzzing ~"
As the two people and the dead body entered the forest of stones, the peaks outside gave out a dim glow. Then, the two people and the dead body vanished into the forest of stones. From the outside, it was impossible to see them.
…
Six hours after Lu Li entered the forest of stones, a flying bird whooshed over from outside the Ancient Demons Dead Ground.
The flying bird vanished from the Ancient Demons Dead Ground, and Yu Qingtian came down.
It was not because Yu Qingtian's flying bird was fast, nor was it because he was close to the Ancient Demons Dead Ground. It was because Yu Qingtian was in a hurry to find another monster. He traveled through space and time and arrived in a couple of days.
He was familiar with the Ancient Demons Dead Land. The deeper they went, the more complicated the terrain became. It would be harder to find Lu Li and the others.
Moreover, there were many places that he did not dare to enter. Or rather, he could not enter. Hence, he spent a lot of Divine Roots to ask the demon race for help.
Divine Sources meant nothing to Yu Qingtian. Nothing was more important to him than killing Lu Li.
As long as he could kill Lu Li, he would be willing to give up his only Holy Grade Relic weapon, let alone some Divine Sources.
In the future, he could think of ways to buy a saint level divine weapon, he could think of ways to snatch it away. If he lost his face, how could he continue to live in the Land of Youyan?
After he arrived, he did not immediately walk into the Death Zone. Instead, he took out a wooden token and crushed it.
He waited quietly at his original spot. Half an hour later, a figure floated over from afar. That person's body was translucent and he had a typical aquiline nose. He was a member of the Wandering Falcon Tribe.
"Greetings, Mansion Master Yu!"
Warriors of the Wandering Falcon Race dropped to one knee. Yu Qingtian waved his hand and asked, "Where is Lu Li now? Have you found him?"
"I don't know!"
The answer from the Peregrine Falcon Race disappointed Yu Qingtian. The Peregrine Falcon reported after a pause, "But half a day ago, someone tracked Lu Li to the Quicksand River.
Lu Li has noticed the man behind him. He doesn't dare to keep chasing. Now, Lu Li must have crossed the Quicksand River or he is still in front of it. "
"Quicksand River?"
Yu Qingtian's eyes glowed. He knew about the Quicksand River. This place was a bit far away from the Quicksand River but not too far.
If he went after Lu Li at full speed and Lu Li hadn't crossed the Quicksand River, there was a good chance that he could catch up with Lu Li.
"This part of the Quicksand River!"
The Peregrine Falcon Race warrior took out a map and circled it. A glint of coldness flashed in Yu Qingtian's eyes. He took out an Interspatial Ring and threw it to the Peregrine Falcon Race warrior. He grabbed the map and flew away.
"Thank you, Mansion Master Yu!"
The Peregrine Falcon Race warrior used psychic power to check and found 100 million Divine Sources in the ring. He was overjoyed and thanked Yu Qingtian.
Yu Qingtian had flown to the distance. He sent back a message, "Keep searching around for me. If you can find Lu Li's exact location, I will give you five billion Divine Sources."
"Okay!"
The Peregrine Falcon Race warrior was overjoyed. He flew to the distance, ready to gather his people to make arrangements.
Yu Qingtian was so generous. They would be happy to do this even without the Family Patriarch's order. Yu Qingtian would remember this favor if they could find Lu Li for him …
"Ha, ha, Lu Li, right?"
While running, the Peregrine Falcon Race warrior sneered and murmured, "Why didn't you leave? Why did you come to the Ancient Demon Dead Land?
Is this a place where a warrior of your level can come?
A supreme warrior from the Divinity is hunting you down. Even if you are extremely lucky, you will not escape death. "
…
Lu Li was in the stone forest. He did not know that Yu Qingtian was here. Blood Fairy was almost certain that she could crack the stone forest. Therefore, Lu Li was at ease when he came in.
He looked around. He was not in a hurry. Instead, he observed and learned the Inhibition Formations here.
Lu Li did not find anything special in the stone forest, nor did he sense any danger. The only thing he felt was that this place was like a maze. He almost lost his way as soon as he came in.
It was easy to understand that there was a maze in the stone forest. Lu Li did not care about the maze. What he cared about was the formation of destruction.
He wanted to see how the formation of destruction was set up. After walking around for two hours, he had a rough idea.
The stone peaks here were of various shapes. Some were like humans, some were like trees, and some were like beasts.
There were Inhibition Formations in the stone peaks. Attacking them by force would cause the formation to backfire.
The formation could sense automatically. The more powerful the warrior was, the more powerful the formation would be and the more powerful the backfire would be.
Lu Li and the Deaf Taoist walked quietly. They did not touch any of the stone peaks. Therefore, the formation of destruction was not activated.
"Wait …"
After Lu Li wandered around for another two hours, he found some clues.
He realized that the stone peaks were set up in a strange angle. Once they were activated, everything would be activated.
Attacking any stone peak would be attacking all of them, and all of them would come to "life"!
In other words — the stone peaks were not stone peaks, but puppets!
Powerful puppets. Once the entire formation was triggered, all the puppets would come to life.
The puppets were a single entity. Any one of them could mobilize the strength of all the other puppets and the horrifying energy stored in the pond.
"Impressive, impressive!"
The more Lu Li thought about it, the more shocked he was. The ancient Inhibition Formations were indeed mysterious. They were much more powerful than the formations built by Tian Lingzi and the others. They were even more powerful than the Inhibition Formations built by Master of Ghost.
That was to say, in the ancient times, the Fey King was more capable than a master craftsman when it came to Inhibition Formations. It had reached an unimaginable level …
