Lu Li ran like crazy. The Worms of the Void did not go after Gong Zizai and the other three. Instead, they had been following him and protecting him.
In this way, Gong Zizai and the other three would not dare to get close to him.
Lu Li sped up to the extreme and went back the way he came. Gong Zizai and the other three were hot on his trail.
The mirror in Gong Zizai's hand kept shooting out white light. Every time, there would be a line of light that could kill at least tens of thousands of Worms of the Void.
The speed was neither fast nor slow. That being said, there were only so many Worms of the Void. At this rate, in a day or two, Lu Li's hundreds of billions of Worms of the Void would be wiped out.
The others were still trying to kill the Worms of the Void. However, the Worms of the Void were in a state between tangible and intangible.
At the moment, the Worms of the Void were intangible. Their attacks could not inflict any harm on the Worms of the Void.
An hour later, Lu Li arrived at the battlefield. That warrior was sitting on the ground, suppressing the Worms of the Void.
Lu Li checked with psychic power and checked the Worms of the Void. This warrior did have some skills. The Worms of the Void that entered his body were suppressed and could not move.
"Whoosh ~"
Lu Li rushed over as fast as lightning. Gong Zizai shouted at once, "Old Gu, move!"
The warrior who was sitting with his legs crossed opened his eyes. Seeing Lu Li rushing towards him, a dagger appeared in his hand. Ruthlessness appeared in his eyes as he dashed towards Lu Li.
"Worms of the Void, gnaw!"
Lu Li gave the mother worm an order. The golden Worm of the Void moved at once. Gu, who was flying up, stopped. There was a trace of pain on his face.
"Whoosh!"
Lu Li's body flew over like a stream of light as he punched Old Gu's head forcefully. The violent force surged and sent Old Gu flying. Although his head wasn't broken, it was still concussed.
"Help!"
Gong Zizai shouted. They could all tell that Old Gu was badly injured. If Lu Li kept on attacking, Old Gu would be killed.
The warriors launched long-range attacks at once. They were not aiming to hurt Lu Li, only to interfere with his attacks.
Four streaks of Xuan Energy came. However, they didn't dare to go into the range of the Worms of the Void. Therefore, they kept some distance from Lu Li.
When the four of them attacked, Lu Li dodged at once. He barely dodged their attacks. Then, he dashed over and got close to Old Gu.
"Boom boom boom!"
This time, Lu Li grabbed Patriarch Gu's arm with one hand while he punched Patriarch Gu's face with the other hand in a frenzy. In the time for one breath, he had punched Patriarch Gu more than a dozen times.
"Ah, ah!"
Old Gu had lost his mind as well. His arm was tightly held by Lu Li and he could not get rid of it. He had to desperately swing his other hand and stab at Lu Li's chest.
He was fast as well. In the time for one or two breaths, he had stabbed Lu Li more than a dozen times with his dagger. Lu Li's chest was badly mutilated. But … Lu Li's body was strong. The dagger only managed to pierce into his skin, and only one or two inches.
The broken blade could not pierce through the heart and lungs, let alone break the bones.
"Chi, chi, chi, chi ~"
Gong Zizai and the others were all attacking fiercely. This time, Lu Li could not dodge. He was hit by four attacks. Blood spilled out of his mouth. One of his hands was still holding on to Old Gu, and the other hand was punching again and again.
His gaze was as determined as steel. Although there was no malevolence on his face, Old Gu's heart was filled with despair.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Lu Li kept on punching like crazy. After more than 50 punches, Old Gu's head was finally broken. Lu Li punched in and killed Old Gu.
Even though he had killed a warrior at the peak of the Second Tribulation, Lu Li was not feeling good himself. His chest was stabbed for dozens of times, and there were holes everywhere.
His back was badly mutilated by the attacks from the four men. His mouth was full of blood, and Old Gu's brains were splattered on his face …
"Phew, phew!"
Lu Li put away the Spirit Heaven Treasure dagger and turned around to look at Gong Zizai and the others. He was breathing heavily, and his eyes were like that of a wolf. Gong Zizai and the others were alarmed.
It was mainly because Lu Li's appearance was so frightening. His ferocious attack just now had frightened them.
"Swish!"
Lu Li didn't bother to tend to his wounds. He dashed toward the others. He wanted to get close to them and kill one more when they were frightened.
Unfortunately …
Gong Zizai and the others were wily old foxes who had been around for many years. They were not foppish young masters with no practical experience.
They had climbed out from the pile of corpses. Lu Li's ferocious attack was frightening. That being said, they came to their senses soon and scattered.
They were faster than Lu Li. It was impossible for Lu Li to get close.
They had seen through Lu Li's tactics and they knew how Lu Li killed Old Zhao.
Lu Li could only kill the warrior at the peak of the Second Tribulation with the help of the Worms of the Void and close combat.
As long as they could not let Lu Li get close, Lu Li would not have any chance to kill them.
The group of wily old foxes looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths curled into cruel smiles.
They had all the time in the world. They could spend 10 days or half a month to kill Lu Li slowly.
Lu Li's physical defense was strong, but wasn't he badly wounded?
The four of them spread out and began to blast at Lu Li. They were all outside the coverage of the Worms of the Void. In this case, they might not be able to hit Lu Li. That being said, Lu Li could dodge one of them, but not four.
Gong Zizai kept killing the Worms of the Void with his mirror. The number of Worms of the Void was decreasing, and so was the coverage.
When all the Worms of the Void were killed, what else could Lu Li do?
"Alas …"
Lu Li dashed to the left and right several times, but the four of them retreated at once. Realizing that he could not get close, Lu Li gave up.
He swallowed two healing pills and dodged to the left and right, dodging the streams of light that kept bombarding him.
He thought about it, trying to figure out a way!
The Worms of the Void were being consumed fast. He could only dodge two or three attacks from the four of them at the same time. One of them was bound to land on him. If he could not figure out a way, he would die sooner or later.
"I have to think of a way to attack, to defend, or to increase my speed!"
After a while, Lu Li figured it out. Gong Zizai and the other three were too smart. It would be hard for him to get close to Lu Li if he attacked.
It would be difficult to increase his speed as well, unless he could learn a high level Speed Fundamental Meaning right away, which was almost impossible.
Then, there was only one way left, to improve his defense. As long as he could do that, the four would not be able to hurt him.
"I have to find a way to mobilize energy from my acupoints to increase my defense!"
Lu Li forced himself to calm down. While he was dodging, he focused on his body. He didn't even mind Gong Zizai and the other three. He was trying to mobilize energy from his acupoints.
"Eh … what is he doing?"
Gong Zizai and the others noticed that Lu Li's eyes were blurred and his reaction was slowed down.
Almost three of the four's attacks could land on Lu Li.
If this went on, Lu Li would probably be killed in half a day at most.
"Faster!"
