Time flies like a shuttle, a white horse galloping past.
Soon, three months had passed. The disappearance of Lu Li and Uncle Shan didn't cause too much of a stir. There was no response from the Cloud Mountain. After all, nobody knew Lu Li was missing.
The Family Master of the Yu Family came with several patriarchs. But they just checked and didn't do anything.
He once tried to enter the stone temple but failed. This time, he was even more cautious.
Uncle Shan's life was coming to an end. He couldn't take the risk.
Yu Feixiang was brought back and locked up. The Family Master ordered him to be locked up for 100 years so that he could settle down and not stir up trouble all day and bring trouble to the Yu Family.
Three months was too short for Uncle Shan and the others. It was quiet in that pitch-dark dungeon.
The bearded bald man and Li Huo had been studying Sacred Glyphs. They were fond of Sacred Glyphs. They were delighted to see such complicated Sacred Glyphs.
If they could understand them, they could not only escape but also increase their divine powers.
Sacred Glyphs were the traces left by the Great Dao in the world. Some people could understand the Great Dao from Sacred Glyphs.
Sacred Glyphs could not only be engraved on weapons, armors and even the body.
Someone engraved a powerful Sacred Glyphs on his arm so that his arm could be indestructible. Even Chaos Spirit Treasure armors could be torn apart.
Someone engraved powerful Sacred Glyphs on his feet so that he could be as fast as the wind and be 100 times faster.
It was said that someone engraved Sacred Glyphs on his life root, which made him more powerful and wonderful.
The bearded baldy and Daoist Li Huo were very clear that with their talents, it would be very difficult for them to become stronger. Therefore, the two of them came to Demon Mountain.
They wanted to learn from the old demon and use the Sacred Glyphs to become stronger and dominate the Second Heaven.
The old demon had lost his physical body and was only left with a remnant of his soul. Yet, he could use the power of Sacred Glyphs to dominate the Second Heaven. If he hadn't offended a powerful warrior, he would still be dominating the Demon Island.
In this world, everyone wanted to become stronger and to have more power.
Everyone wanted to be an overlord, to dominate the world and to build a foundation for their families and descendants. They didn't want their lives and freedom to be controlled by others.
Since it was so difficult to strengthen oneself, one could only rely on external forces. Divine Imprints were one such external force, and an extremely powerful one at that.
Uncle Shan was also studying it, but he didn't do anything. He just sat there quietly.
Spiritual will couldn't be used here, so how was he going to observe the Divine Inscriptions here?
Lu Li had been cultivating for three months. He did not study Divine Inscriptions. Instead, he entrusted this important task to Blood Fairy.
He had a spiritual connection with Blood Fairy. Blood Fairy had a strange ability. She could transmit her learnings to Lu Li, just like how Lu Li was learning on his own.
Blood Fairy was talented in formations. Since Lu Li did not have the time to study Divine Glyphs, he left the work to Blood Fairy.
Three months ago, Blood Fairy had swallowed a lot of crystals, but she did not evolve. She reached out with her tentacles and studied the Divine Inscriptions around her.
During the three months, Lu Li did not make much progress in his cultivation of Fundamental Principle.
He had yet to find a way to merge the Ice Frost Sword Intent with the Kill Emperor Ghost Chop. One was a physical attack, while the other was a soul attack. If he wanted to merge them, he had to find a point.
"How can I merge physical attacks and soul attacks?"
Lu Li had been thinking about this. Back in the days, he had a way to attack. The Soul Shattering skill was to launch physical attacks and soul attacks at the same time. Dozens of physical attacks and soul attacks would be launched at the same time, which could catch the enemy off guard.
But that was a simultaneous attack, not a fusion!
In essence, Lu Li had released two kinds of attacks at the same time. The two attacks did not interfere with each other. They were just supporting each other. They were not really integrated.
Now, the Slayer's Ghost Chop was about to reach the third stage. The big pot was inside the small pot. The two were going to be integrated.
Therefore, the previous experience was meaningless. Lu Li had been stuck in this bottleneck.
"Physical attacks are tangible while soul attacks are intangible. How can the two be integrated?"
Lu Li was in deep thoughts. He had been thinking about it. Time flew by so fast that Lu Li barely noticed.
He had nothing to do in the prison. If Blood Fairy made any progress, she would let him know.
Uncle Shan and the others did not take any action. For them, cultivating for eight to 10 years was a piece of cake.
Lu Li had been cultivating in the space-time tunnel for decades. He had a steady mind. He was not in a hurry to come out and ask Blood Fairy.
Soon, a year had passed!
Lu Li came out and rested for two days. He asked Blood Fairy and went back to cultivation after confirming that she did not make much progress.
Similarly, Uncle Shan and the bald bearded man did not make any progress. The runes in the dungeon were so strong that they could suppress a Heaven God of Three Trials. How could they be solved so easily?
Lately, Mount Cloudy was stirring. Lu Li had been away for over a year without any news. Fairy Tian Yun ordered Patriarch Chen to send scouts to investigate.
Lu Li was valued by Fairy Tian Yun. She hoped that Lu Li could help her kill Yun Kaiyue. It had been a long time since Lu Li left. Fairy Tian Yun had to ask.
She seemed to know that Lu Li was going to the Mountain of Demon.
Patriarch Chen sent some scouts to the Mountain of Demon to gather information.
After spending two months going back and forth, the two scouts returned with some inaccurate information.
Lu Li did go to the Mountain of Demon. Some old warriors saw him.
But only one of them saw Lu Li running toward the Eagle Beak Mountain. No one else saw him after that.
That being said, there was one piece of information that caught Patriarch Chen's attention!
Yu Feixiang went to the Mountain of Demon with the bald bearded man and Li Huo. Later on, the Yu Family Patriarch came as well. Later on, the Yu Family Patriarch went back to the Mountain of Gods with a group of warriors.
"Can it be …"
Patriarch Chen's heart skipped a beat. He knew clearly about the feud between Yu Feixiang and Lu Li. Now that the bald bearded man was involved, Patriarch Chen had a bad feeling.
He hurried to Fairy Tian Yun's palace and reported the information. Then, he cupped his fists to the sky and said, "Fairy, is it possible that Lu Li was killed by the powerful warriors of the Yu Family?"
"He is not dead!"
A faint voice came. Fairy Tian Yun did not show up. She just said, "I can feel the presence of life from the jade talisman I left him. He is still alive."
"Alive?"
Patriarch Chen frowned. He thought for a while and said, "The two scouts have searched almost the entire Mountain of Demon. They did not find Lu Li, nor did they find any trace of him."
"It is easy to know where Lu Li is!"
Fairy Tian Yun said after a while, "You go to the Mountain of Gods in person and ask Yu Feixiang about it.
Tell the Family Patriarch of the Yu Family that if Lu Li dies, let Yu Feixiang die with him! "
"Eh …"
