The next day, Lu Li went on stage. This time, the opponent that Patriarch Two arranged for him was even more famous. It was a strange race that was born with powerful flames. The flames that they released were so horrifying that not many people could stand it.
This powerful warrior had a winning streak as well. Therefore, even though Lu Li had defeated Tian Zhen, there were still more people who chose to bet on the warrior from the exotic races.
After all, Tian Zhen was strong in defense, while this guy was strong in offense. Most people would not even be able to last one or two incense sticks of time in his flames. If they did not admit defeat, they would be burned alive.
This expert was called Xing Rui. His clan was called the Yan Clan, and they were once a famous clan in the Third Heaven. They even had a Great Emperor.
Unfortunately, they offended an even more powerful Great Emperor in the end, and their tribe was annihilated. Only a few of their tribesmen were left to wander and hide.
After Xing Rui released the flames, Lu Li sensed the overbearing power. The flames were horrifying. They were not like the regular red or blue flames, but black flames.
After the flames engulfed him, he felt as if he had disappeared, as if he had been burned to ashes.
Smoke began to rise from Lu Li's body. His skin was burnt and his muscles were roasted.
Lu Li didn't make a move. Instead, he mobilized the energy in his acupoints to protect his body and let the flames refine his body.
Lightning and flames could temper one's body. This flame was so domineering that it was a good opportunity to temper one's body.
Lu Li kept howling, but he did not move. He sat on the ground with his legs crossed, refining his body.
From time to time, his hand would shoot out waves of divine power. It looked like he was fighting back.
"If you can't take it, tell me."
Xing Rui sent a message to Lu Li. He had been ordered to let Lu Li win. Therefore, Xing Rui actually had more horrifying flames, but he didn't release them.
He was worried that Lu Li would die so he sent a message at once.
"Alright, I can still hold on. I'll try my best to hold on for a while longer!"
How could Lu Li let go of such a good opportunity to refine his body?
Then, he continued to scream and temper his body.
The people outside could not see what was going on inside. They could only hear his screams. Countless people placed their bets.
The Second Master would take as many as he could. After all, Xing Rui was one of their people.
However, Second Master didn't dare to be too obvious. After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he didn't accept any more bets.
Many people were filled with regret. If they had known earlier, they would have placed more bets on Xing Rui.
When Lu Li was enveloped by the flames, nobody could see him. They could only hear his miserable cries and some booming sounds as if Lu Li was struggling on his deathbed.
The noise was getting louder, but Lu Li did not move. He sat on the ground and kept releasing divine energy.
At the same time, he asked Blood Fairy to set up a powerful illusion formation that could not be used to attack.
He had to act more realistically. Otherwise, the people outside would not be convinced, and he wouldn't be able to explain it to the Second Master.
Lu Li struggled for a while. He noticed that his body was injured but his resistance to fire was growing.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, his body was able to withstand this kind of flame.
"Xiu!"
His body flew up, flashing and moving around inside, so that others could vaguely see his figure moving inside.
After a while, Blood Fairy finished setting up the illusion matrix. A thick white fog emerged, and then dragons of thunder, fire, and earth flew through the fog. The sound of wind and thunder could be heard.
Those outside sensed something was off. Normally, someone would have been burnt to death in the time it took for one incense stick to burn. However, Lu Li was still alive and kicking.
Furthermore, he had released such a terrifying killer move. One had to know that Tian Zhen had been defeated by such a killer move.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Lu Li also used the Ghastly Slash. Rays of crescent-shaped ray of sword light turned around in the air and hacked down. The might in heaven and earth came down, and those outside could feel it clearly.
Those who placed their bets felt their hearts weighed down. Were they going to make a mistake again?
Was this puny second tribulation Heaven God going to turn the tables?
"Boom!"
After the time for another incense stick to burn, those outside felt their hearts were weighed down. The most powerful move of the Fire Race was fire. If the fire could not burn Lu Li to death, then there was nothing they could do to Lu Li. Lu Li was likely to win this fight.
"Boom!"
After the time for half an incense stick to burn, the flames died down. Xing Rui was smashed away. Half of his body was smashed into pieces. He was lying in a pool of blood.
Lu Li seemed to be in a worse state. He was charred and his muscles were smoking as if he was burnt.
But Lu Li was still standing, holding the saber that the Cauldron of Thousand Transformations had transformed into.
His eyes were filled with fighting spirit. Miserable as he was, he could still fight.
"I admit defeat!"
Xing Rui had put on a good show. Now that he was seriously injured, he would not go on. Xing Rui shouted. People were cursing outside.
Many people were looking at Xing Rui with unfriendly looks. Some of them were looking at Lu Li with hatred as well. Lu Li sighed. Even though many people hated Xing Rui, it was inevitable that he would be hated.
"One more to go!"
Lu Li walked out with difficulty. He would leave after one more fight. Patriarch Two would give him 30,000 Ice Crystals, which was a lot of Divine Stones, enough for the three of them to teleport away.
As long as they were far away from the Ice Valley, there was nothing they could do even if they wanted to kill them.
Supported by Gan Lin, Lu Li walked out of the arena. Along the way, many people looked at him as if he was a monster.
Lu Li paid no attention to them and went back to his cave. Qin Zhan hadn't come back to gather information yet.
Lu Li took some pellets and sat with his legs crossed to heal his wounds. After a day and a night of healing, he was more or less healed.
Patriarch Two sent someone to urge him to go but he was not in a hurry. He had been refining his body in the flames for a long time. His physical body had been improved and he needed to stabilize it.
After the third fight, he would leave immediately. Therefore, he needed to be in the best condition.
If he were to be badly injured in the third fight and he was chased after by someone, all three of them would die.
After another day of healing, Lu Li walked out. Qin Zhan had come back. Before Lu Li could ask, Qin Zhan took out a map and said, "I have found out everything. After we leave the valley, we can reach a city if we fly towards the north for half a day.
Once we are in the city, we can teleport more than 100 times with our Divine Stones. After that, nobody will be able to track us down. "
"Fly for half a day?" Lu Li raised his eyebrows and said with a straight face, "Can't we teleport to the city from the valley?"
"No!"
Qin Zhan shook his head and said, "There is a Teleportation Formation in the Frozen Valley, but only for sergeants. This is an internal Teleportation Formation!"
"Can't we make some connections?
For example, give a commander some Divine Stones and teleport us once? "
Lu Li asked, unwilling to give up. It was too dangerous to fly for half a day to get out of the valley.
If someone wanted to hunt them down, they would be targeted as soon as they left the valley. Half a day was enough for them to be doomed eternally.
"No!"
Qin Zhan sighed and said, "I have thought about it. I even asked a sergeant. But the Teleportation Formation is too strict. Only the army of the Frozen Valley can be teleported."
"Then there is no other way!"
Lu Li's eyes flickered and he said, "Tomorrow, I will fight the last fight. If there is no problem, we will leave.
If things go wrong, we will stay in the valley for a while until people forget about us and then we can sneak out. "
