The speed of the mountain was good, comparable to supreme warriors in the Divinity.
But there was still some distance between the mountain and the Space-time Office. If Lu Li could fly in the void, he could arrive in half a month. But if he were to rely on the mountain, it would take him at least two months!
Lu Li didn't worry about that. He was waiting for Ling Qingyan to send him a message or when he arrived at the central part of the Divinity.
If Ling Qingyan didn't crush the jade talisman, Lu Li would go down after two months.
Time flew by. Soon, a month had passed.
Ling Qingyan hadn't crushed the jade talisman yet, which worried Lu Li. Were the warriors of the Hall of Black Flames still here?
Or was it because Ling Qingyan was killed so suddenly that he didn't have the time to crush the jade talisman?
"I will fly for another 10 days. If I can't get any information in 10 days, I will go down and have a look!"
Lu Li made up his mind. He was almost fully recovered. However, due to the excessive loss of life energy, he still looked pale and sickly. He was also afraid of the cold.
But there was nothing he could do. Life energy could not be replenished in a short time. It would take several years or unless he took some special pellets of the Second Plane.
As for Lu Li's abilities and soul, it didn't affect him too much. Of course, he could not take such pellets again. If his life energy was damaged again, nobody would be able to save him.
"Boom, boom, boom ~"
The mountain flew on with tens of thousands of thunderbolts chasing after them. Lu Li and Little White were absorbing thunderbolts all the time.
During these months, Lu Li felt his body had grown stronger. But by how much, he didn't know.
That being said, he believed average supreme warriors in the Divinity wouldn't be able to kill him even if they just stood there and let them kill them.
Little White had been sleeping. Was it because it had absorbed too much energy of thunderbolts and needed to digest?
Or was it because it hadn't woken up recently?
Time moved on. Soon, nine days had passed. When Lu Li was ready to go down the next day, the jade talisman on his waist suddenly cracked.
"They are here?"
A glint of coldness rose in Lu Li's eyes. He was relieved. The broken jade talisman meant that warriors of the Hall of Black Flames had come down and that Ling Qingyan and the others were fine.
As long as they were fine, Lu Li was confident that he could deal with the Hall of Black Flames.
"Let's go down!"
Without any hesitation, Lu Li flew the mountain downward. A moment later, he stopped and looked at Little White that was sleeping soundly on the mountain.
Little White was strong enough to deal with average supreme warriors in the Divinity. That being said, Lu Li could kill average supreme warriors in the Divinity easily. It was pointless for Little White to tag along.
This time, there were experts from the Black Flame Hall. It would be dangerous for Xiao Bai to follow them. Thus, it was better for Xiao Bai to cultivate here.
"Little White!"
Lu Li woke up Little White decisively. Little White was only sleeping, not unconscious. Soon, it woke up and made some noise.
"Xiao Bai, I need to go down and do something!"
Lu Li pointed down and said, "I will be gone for a year at most. You can go down there and cultivate here. It is safe here. Don't run around and wait for me to come back for you."
Squeak, squeak ~
Little White shook its head and grabbed Lu Li with its paws. It was clear that it wanted to go down with Lu Li.
But Lu Li said with determination, "I will need your help in a while. You are still weak. Cultivate here for a while. When you are stronger, you can help me. Do you understand?"
Little White was intelligent. It could understand Lu Li's words.
This time, Little White said nothing. But its eyes were filled with reluctance. It waved its paws and screamed.
Lu Li could not understand Little White but he had a general idea. Lu Li said with a smile, "Don't worry. I will not leave you behind. As long as you don't run around, I will come and find you.
Your task now is to cultivate here. The stronger you are, the better. Then, you can help me kill my enemies. Do you understand? "
"Squeak, squeak ~"
Little White nodded. Lu Li did not hesitate any longer. He patted Little White's head, put away the mountain and flew down.
Little White screamed and wanted to follow Lu Li, but it stopped in the end.
Lu Li slowed down a bit when he was in the Trials of Wind and Fire. That being said, he didn't feel much pressure so he sped up at once.
After he rushed down, Lu Li took a healing pellet. When the efficacy of the pellet spread, he found that the efficacy was greatly reduced.
The healing pellet could only heal superficial wounds. Even so, it was limited.
It seemed that the damage to his life force had a great impact on his body. He must be careful not to get injured or it would be difficult for him to recover.
Lu Li flew down quickly. Down below was a barren mountain, uninhabited. The population of the Divinity was decreasing. It was unlikely that he would run into anyone in a barren mountain like this.
Lu Li used the Cloaking Armor, picked a random direction and snuck in. In the time for three incense sticks to burn, he found a city.
It was a small city that had been damaged in the past. It had not been completely repaired. It seemed to be in a dilapidated state.
The city was empty. Lu Li sensed that there were only thousands of people in the city …
"Cangyun City?"
Lu Li took out a map to check. Soon, he was sure of his location.
He had reached the central part of the Divinity. He was 70 or 80 prefectures away from the Space-Time City and more than 100 prefectures away from the City of Divinity.
"Let me get some information first."
Lu Li snuck into the city. The most powerful ones in the city were three mighty warriors. They could not find him.
Lu Li hid near a tavern and eavesdropped on the conversations in the tavern, hoping to glean some useful information.
A moment later, Lu Li was disappointed. He did not know if it was because the information in this small city was blocked or that the warriors of the Hall of Black Flame had blocked the information. Nobody was talking about the Hall of Black Flame.
"I think they will block the information!"
Lu Li thought about it. Back when the Slayer was killed, there was no information.
What happened at the Second Plane was something that only the most powerful warriors were qualified to know.
It was the same this time. The news that warriors of the Hall of Black Flame had come to the mortal world would be blocked.
"Let's go!"
Lu Li left the city and flew across the void. He wanted to go to a place near the Space-Time City. He had to be there either to gather information or to attack.
Lu Li flew across the void several times without running into anyone.
Once, he was near a city, but no one in the city was alerted. It was not hard to imagine how much the population of the Divinity had dropped.
Two and a half days later, Lu Li arrived at a prefecture near the Space-time Office. He went into a small city, trying to get some information. Unexpectedly, he ran into an acquaintance, Jian Xilai!
"Eh!"
Jian Xilai was a super mighty warrior in the Divinity. He was hiding in the city as well and he could see through the Cloaking Armor.
Jian Xilai was shocked to see Lu Li in the city. Lu Li winked at him and left the city quietly. Jian Xilai followed him in a hurry.
In a valley, Lu Li stopped. Jian Xilai rushed over, dropped to his knees and said, "Young Master Lu!
Young Master, how come you are here?
The warriors of the Hall of Black Flame have gone to the Land of Youyan. Without you here, Young Lady and Prince of Yan are in danger … "
Lu Li did not panic. He asked leisurely, "How long have they been gone?"
Jian Xilai answered, "Five days!"
