They moved on for another half a month. Still, they could not find the exit or the border, nor did they run into Cang Long and the others.
They did not know how many small beasts they had killed. Conservatively speaking, they must have killed at least one hundred thousand. They had harvested many elixirs. Another seven or eight hundred were harvested.
They gave all the elixirs they had to Lu Li. Without him, many would have died.
As a matter of fact, there was a way to avoid risks, which was to go into someone's interspatial artifact and let Lu Li or Yin Tianfan take them.
Lu Li's defense was exceptional. He alone could fend off tens of thousands of small white beasts. The others could cultivate in the interspatial artifact and Lu Li could take them on.
But none of them chose to do so. Many would rather die than to go in.
Those that could come here were the elites of their families, the most powerful of the young generation.
They had their pride. The moment they came in, they were ready to die.
If they were afraid of danger and death, then what was the point of coming here?
They might as well stay in their families. They would never be in danger.
They were a group of blessed sons and daughters. Their families had given them strict education since they were young.
They all had their dignity. If they hid in Interspatial Rings like dogs, they would be belittled by others. They would never be able to live with their heads held high.
What was more, the formation was in place. Basically, they wouldn't run into too much danger. Besides, they had Lu Li with them.
They didn't have to worry too much. They just had to focus on attacking. Lu Li was the best firefighter.
"How big is this place?"
This was what Lu Li, Yin Tianfan, and Yin Ruolan were thinking about. It was strange that they had not run into Cang Long and the others after so many days.
However, since they could not find them or find the exit, they had to keep on looking.
They pressed on. This time, after five days, they found another good place. Up ahead was a cold pond. In the pond, they found many elixirs.
When the scouts came back to report, Lu Li sent Blood Fairy to have a look.
As he had expected, there were many small white beasts at the bottom of the pond. Finally, there were other beasts.
A fish!
There was a type of fish in the cold pond. It was a fish with legs, and its body was covered in scales. It didn't look like a fish, but more like a strange beast.
These fish were very large, reaching a length of 300 meters. Their mouths could swallow a castle. They had four legs, two long feelers, and a long tail. The tail had sharp spikes that reflected a dazzling cold light.
There weren't many of these fish-like beasts, only a few dozen of them, scattered around the cold pond.
There were forty to fifty thousand little beasts, and all of them were in the cave at the bottom of the cold pond.
There were indeed a lot of divine medicines here, and it was not just four to five hundred of them. Conservatively speaking, there were over a thousand of them.
Lu Li recognized some body-tempering divine herbs now. He found that there were more than three hundred of them at the bottom of the cold pond.
When Blood Fairy came back, Lu Li left quietly and went back to the team. He entered the interspatial artifact with Yin Tianfan and the others to discuss.
"This is a little tricky!"
Yin Chengrui frowned and sighed, "Why don't we just forget about it? There are divine medicines everywhere. There's no need to take the risk. We can just search elsewhere."
Yin Ruolan said nothing. She could tell from Lu Li's expression that he was not inclined to take the risk.
Lu Li could survive the white beasts. Those strange fish-like beasts must be terrifying. However, this was the first time he had seen another kind of beast.
The temperature of the cold pond was low, but it did not freeze. Judging from the fact that the beasts could survive in the pond and the white beasts at the bottom, they could not be weak.
Lu Li and Yin Tianfan, on the other hand, were unwilling to give up. There were over a thousand divine medicines and more than three hundred body-tempering ones.
Lu Li had consumed too many body-tempering herbs. He could not be so thick-skinned as to keep asking for more from the Yin Family.
What was more, he might have to leave the Yin Family for the Wind Land soon. Naturally, he must prepare more body-tempering herbs.
Lu Li had achieved a minor success in the Dragon Wrestler and the Void Traversing skill. Not only had his abilities improved, but his ability to escape had improved as well.
Lu Li no longer had any concerns about going to the Wind Land. He would leave after this trip.
"Lu Li, how about this?"
Yin Tianfan pondered for a moment and said, "You lure all the small white beasts away. I will bring a few of our strongest warriors to see if we can kill those fish-type monsters. If we can't kill them, we will give up."
The white beasts must be lured away or else Yin Tianfan and the others would not be able to stand it.
If the white beasts were all lured away, Yin Tianfan and the others would be able to fight against the fish beasts alone. After all, Yin Tianfan and the others had Saint Weapon fragments, and they were all disciples of famous sects. They knew many powerful secret techniques, and their battle prowess was very formidable.
"I will be fine!"
Lu Li shrugged. For him, luring away tens of thousands of small beasts was a piece of cake. He did not feel any pressure.
But could Yin Tianfan and the others stand it?
"Don't worry about us!"
Yin Tianfan could tell that Lu Li was worried. He said with a smile, "I will ask Lu Hai to build some powerful runes. Even if he cannot defeat us, he can at least run away. Don't underestimate us."
"Alright!"
What else could Lu Li say when Yin Tianfan had said so?
Yin Ruolan and the others could not say much. Lu Hai could build some runes. It would not be difficult for them to run away.
They had to try whether they could succeed or not. Otherwise, they would be looked down upon by Lu Li.
After a moment of discussion, they left. Yin Tianfan went to Lu Hai to make arrangements while Lu Li went to check again.
According to Blood Fairy, Lu Li noticed that the white beasts were at the bottom of the pond for thousands of miles. In other words, as long as he was careful, he would not alarm the fish-like beasts above.
Lu Li asked Blood Fairy to do some work. After all, the fish-like beasts were too strong. It was better to be safe than sorry.
After a whole day, the two sides were finally ready. Lu Li left with a group of warriors to wait nearby. They could not be involved in the battle. Staying here might be a burden.
Yin Tianfan asked seven warriors to stay, the seven most powerful ones. If the seven could not kill the dozens of beasts, then all of them would not die either.
Lu Li led a group of warriors across hundreds of thousands of miles and found a secluded valley. He also searched around. Making sure that the white beasts were not around, he came back with a peace of mind.
"Are you ready?"
He looked at Yin Tianfan and the others. They nodded. Lu Li took out his weapon and dashed into the ground. Under Blood Fairy's guidance, Lu Li went underground.
Lu Li went down for thousands of miles in one go. Under Blood Fairy's guidance, he went to the bottom of the pond.
He made a louder noise on purpose. Soon, the white beasts were alarmed.
He did not run away. Instead, he used the Trace of Great Path and used psychic power to check in the pond. Once the fish-like beasts were alarmed, he would have to run away first.
Lu Li was far away from the pond. Though many small beasts were alarmed, the fish-like beasts did not. Maybe, it was because Lu Li was not strong that the fish-like beasts did not care.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh ~"
