A group of people immediately went to make arrangements. Lu Li was also assigned to recruit people.
Lu Li didn't mind. He wandered around and shouted. He didn't have to spend much effort. Many came willingly. After all, Recluse Cold Mountain was famous.
Lu Li asked around and at the same time, he learned about the other two lords. One of them was the Great Patriarch of Elephant Mansion, Lord Xiang Xiong.
Lord Xiang Xiong's appeal was stronger than that of Recluse Cold Mountain. Many had come to the Ivory City to begin with. Everyone knew Lord Xiang Xiong and they were happy to follow him.
Lord Xiang Xiong had gathered almost forty or fifty thousand warriors with many powerful ones. He must be the most powerful of all the warriors that had come in.
There were quite a number of Fifth Tribulation Experts here. There were at least a thousand of them.
The other leader was also an old warrior. His nickname was Mad Demon. He was famous for being a ferocious man. Because of his ferocious reputation, many people were willing to follow him. There were already ten or twenty thousand warriors here.
In an hour, Recluse Cold Sky had gathered more than ten thousand warriors. Recluse Cold Sky didn't want to wait any longer. He waved his hand and led the others forward.
They were moving toward the west because nobody was going there. Lu Li believed that the other two lords would lead their warriors in other directions as well. The lords wouldn't have conflicts unless there was a big interest.
Their divine energy was messed up so they could not fly. They had to walk on foot.
This world was strange. Fifth tribulation warriors' divine energy was messed up. They could only use 30 to 40 percent of their abilities. What about the lords?
Therefore, they were careful and moved in groups. They were afraid that if something serious happened, they would all die without a burial place.
They didn't dare to move too fast. Some of them even went ahead to explore.
After hundreds of thousands of miles, the view changed. There was a forest. Recluse Cold Sky stopped. He waved his hand and said, "Liu, take some people with you and have a look. I think there is some elixir here."
"Okay!"
A warrior at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation Realm's eyes glowed. He asked the others to go in at once. Many others walked into the forest without being asked. Who wouldn't want elixir?
Thousands of people rushed into the forest at once. Most of them were fourth tribulation warriors. Who wouldn't want elixir?
Many of them moved quickly as if they were afraid that others would take the elixir.
"Everyone, be careful!"
Patron Cold Mountain shouted and those who had entered the forest immediately slowed down. However, after inspecting the forest for a moment and finding no abnormalities, they relaxed.
"There's a divine medicine!"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from inside, and the people outside who were hesitating immediately rushed in.
However, there were still a few thousand people who didn't move.
Lu Li was one of them. He had been following Hermit Cold Mountain for more than 1000 feet. He didn't even look at the forest. He just sat on the ground with his legs crossed.
Before he was absolutely sure of his safety, Lu Li would not take any reckless actions. He was not interested in some elixirs. Safety first.
He had a strange feeling about this world. He had a feeling that something big was about to happen. The vision in heaven and earth had been lingering in Lu Li's mind. He didn't believe that this was just a small world.
"Ahhh —"
"Run!"
"Run!"
All of a sudden, some miserable cries came from the forest along with many exclamations. Lu Li and the others stood up at once. Everyone nearby was on high alert.
Cold Mountain Hermit furrowed his brows even more, but he didn't move.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
A group of people flew out in fear. Many of them were injured. Some of them had tiny arrowheads stuck in their bodies. Someone shouted from afar, "Sir, there are people inside. There are barbarians, powerful barbarians!
Go and help them or more than half of them will die! "
"Savages?"
Lu Li and the others outside were taken aback. It would be fine if there were monsters and beasts, but there were savages?
Or a very powerful barbarian?
"Fourth Tribulation Warriors, stay here. Fifth Tribulation Warriors, follow me!"
Hermit Cold Mountain waved his fan and shouted. The fifth Tribulation Warriors outside hesitated for the time for one breath before they all followed Hermit Cold Mountain into the forest.
Lu Li followed after some thoughts, which surprised some people. But they didn't care if Lu Li wanted to court death.
Know thyself and thy enemy, and you will never be defeated!
Since there were indigenous people here, powerful ones at that, Lu Li naturally wanted to have a look. Otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died.
After all, Hermit Cold Mountain and the others were at the front. Lu Li was just checking from behind.
The forest was lush. The trees were in the shape of umbrellas with bare trunks at the bottom and dense branches and leaves at the top. Therefore, the light in the forest was dim. The branches and leaves had blocked out the sky.
Lu Li rushed in as well. There were more people coming out from the forest and they were all fourth Tribulation Warriors. He could hear some explosions in the distance. There must be warriors of the fifth Tribulation fighting with indigenous savages.
Divine energy was messed up but they were not slow. In the time for a dozen breaths, they had arrived at the battlefield. It was a mess. Many trees were cut down and there were deep ravines on the ground.
There were many bodies. At least three or four thousand had died. That fifth Tribulation Warrior named by Hermit Cold Mountain was leading a group of fifth Tribulation Warriors to fight against some monsters.
That was right!
Lu Li's first impression was that they were monsters, not savages.
There were many dwarf-like humans over there. They were short, but their bodies were thick. Their hands and feet were thick, and their bodies were covered in long, black hair. Even their faces had sparse, long hair.
They were wearing leather pants and had a kind of white bone bow in their hands. They were fast and agile. They could climb up trees and dig into the ground, like marmots.
The sky was filled with white arrows. The white arrows were glowing. Lu Li saw a warrior of the Fifth Tribulation being shot through. It was horrifying to see a warrior of the Fifth Tribulation pierced through!
There were thousands of indigenous savages but some of them were killed. Liu and the others were mainly relying on treasures to attack. Their divine energy was messed up. Many powerful Fundamental Meanings and skills could not be used. They had to try their best to use treasures to attack.
The indigenous savages were strong as well. Some treasures could only injure them but not kill them.
The injured barbarians either ran to the top of the tree to escape, or drilled into the ground and disappeared.
"Charge!"
Recluse Cold Mountain rushed over with his team. He waved his fan and swept it across a savage's neck. A head flew up at once. Recluse Cold Mountain killed a savage in an instant.
The other powerful warriors were cheered up. With the help of a lord, it would be much easier to defeat the savages. At the very least, there wouldn't be too many casualties.
"Whoosh!"
Lu Li hid behind a tree when he heard some noises coming from his left. He had been using the Trace of Dao. Without any hesitation, he used the Dragon Absorbing Skill and punched at the left.
"Bang!"
A white bone arrow bumped against Lu Li's fist. Lu Li trembled and the white bone arrow was knocked away.
Lu Li glanced over coldly. One of the wild men caught Lu Li's glance and flew up to the tree in a hurry.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
From the leaves on the tree, white arrows flew out continuously towards Lu Li. Lu Li swung his fist and smashed away the white arrows one by one.
"Eh?"
Recluse Cold Mountain continued to take the lives of the barbarians one by one. He threw Lu Li a look of surprise.
Just now, Lu Li had caught his attention when he was following Recluse Cold Mountain. Inevitably, Recluse Cold Mountain's curiosity was piqued when he saw Lu Li fending off the white arrows.
But Recluse Cold Mountain didn't mind after a quick glance. Everyone had their own unique skills. It was not surprising that so many people had come in this time.
"Let's go!"
