It had been a long time since Lu Li's physical body had been improved. At this level, it was too difficult to improve. Consuming regular elixirs was no different than consuming none. They could not improve his physical strength by much.
Even if Lu Li were to search for thunderbolts and flames, it would be hard for him to improve.
However, the thunderbolts here were so powerful that they could improve his physical body so quickly.
At this moment, Lu Li even forgot to collect the materials. The improvement of his physical body was more important than anything else.
He entered the state of illusion. While absorbing the energy of thunderbolts to improve his physical body, he began to observe the miraculous divine chains of order.
He had been trying to control the chains. Unfortunately, he had not found a way after such a long time. Apart from the fact that the chains were inside and outside of his body, they were strange to him.
At the moment, the chains were glowing. Lu Li wanted to take this chance to observe and see if he could find a way to control them.
Once the chains could be put to use, Lu Li's abilities would soar.
Time flew by. Soon, half a month had passed. Lu Li didn't even notice that the improvement of his physical body had slowed down.
In merely half a month, his physical body had been improved by at least a dozen times.
Previously, his physical body was as strong as a warrior at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation. Now, it was as strong as a Lord of the Sixth Tribulation.
If he were to use the Dragon Wrestling Skill, his physical body would be 10 times stronger and he would be as strong as a warrior at the middle stage of the Sixth Tribulation.
He was only at the peak of the Fourth Tribulation, but his physical body was as strong as a warrior at the middle stage of the Sixth Tribulation. That was the advantage of cultivating an immortal body.
If Lu Li's physical body could keep improving without making a breakthrough in his realm, then his physical body could be as strong as a Quasi Emperor.
Of course …
The further he progressed, the more difficult it was to cultivate. Now, the improvement of his physical body was slowing down. He must have absorbed too much energy of thunderbolts and his body had developed resistance.
During the half a month, Lu Li made no progress with the chains of order. He didn't stop cultivating and kept on absorbing thunderbolts.
Now, he could almost resist this lightning, and it was very difficult for lightning to cause too much damage to him. This was also the reason why the growth of his physical body had slowed down.
The reason why his physical body could improve so quickly was that the thunderbolts were tearing apart his body and then regenerating it. That was how he could grow stronger.
Now that it couldn't be destroyed, it naturally couldn't be reborn, and its growth would slow down.
Three days later, Lu Li opened his eyes. He strode into the center of thunderbolts. Thousands of thunderbolts whooshed down and surrounded him. However, they could not inflict serious damage on him, only minor injuries.
Lu Li collected the materials quickly and left at once. He went to other areas with thunderbolts. There were still some materials there. Now that he could stand the thunderbolts, he must collect them as soon as possible.
Two days later, Lu Li had collected seven kinds of materials in the area with thunderbolts. He only had four left to collect and they were all in the pond. If he wanted to collect more, he must go to the pond.
Only one and a half months had passed. Lu Li still had one and a half months. He was not in a hurry. He continued to refine his body in the thunderbolts. The improvement of his body was slow but it was faster than consuming elixirs.
Every day he stayed in the lightning was equivalent to refining a few hundred stalks of godly medicine.
After another five days of cultivation, Lu Li's progress was even slower. Finally, he left for the pond.
He walked into a small pond, and Blood Fairy followed him.
The pond was small, only with a radius of one thousand feet. It was not deep either. The deepest part of the pond was over one hundred feet deep.
At the bottom of the pond grew some purple aquatic plants, which was one of the materials needed by Martial Emperors.
The water in the pool was not transparent, nor was it black. Instead, it was brown like blood, sticky and viscous.
Lu Li looked into the distance. He could see bubbles popping up on the surface of the water.
There was nothing in the pond, no beasts, no living creatures.
Theoretically speaking, the water should not be dangerous.
However, when Lu Li walked to the pond, he sensed a fatal danger from the depth of his soul. He believed that if he jumped in, he would turn into a skeleton immediately.
"Bang!"
Standing by the pond, Lu Li generated a hand print. If it were regular water, half of the water in the pond would evaporate.
However, when Lu Li slapped down, nothing happened in the water. There weren't even any ripples …
It didn't feel like a person, but more like an iron wall. Lu Li moved a boulder nearby and threw it into the pond.
Lu Li thought there would be a splash, but the boulder dived in and then disappeared. The pond was still as still as an ancient well. There was not even a ripple.
Lu Li tried many other ways. However, the pond was like a beast. Anything that entered the pond would disappear, and there would be no ripples in the pond.
Lu Li wanted to let Holy King's daughter have a try, but he did not dare to do so now. What if Holy King's daughter was smashed into pieces as well?
Lu Li used psychic power to ask Blood Evil Emperor, "Evil Emperor, you are experienced and knowledgeable. Do you know what this water is?"
"There is no such water in the Third Heaven!"
The Blood Evil Emperor said, "But I've read an ancient book, which recorded some strange stories about the Fourth Heaven. There seems to be a description of this water. If I'm not wrong, it should be called Xuanzhen Heavy Water!"
"Profound Heavy Water?"
Lu Li curled his lips. The name was strange. He could not infer the nature of the water from the name. Lu Li asked, "Then, Evil Emperor, what is special about this water?
How can we solve it? "
"The special characteristic of this water is that it's heavy. A single drop of water is comparable to a mountain. This water is a supreme treasure for smithing. This water shouldn't be naturally here. It should be collected from other places by the supreme experts of the Heavenly Emperor Sect and placed here for smithing.
The water can cultivate some super powerful materials. The aquatic grasses in the water are such materials. "
"Heavy?"
Lu Li was even more confused. He asked, "How come when I throw a boulder in, it disappears as soon as it goes in?
Also, when I attack, how come there is no ripple in the water? "
"That is simple!"
Blood Evil Emperor explained, "The water is actually moving. Every drop of water is moving. It's just that you cannot see it.
Think about it. Every drop of water is as heavy as a mountain. When you throw a boulder in, you will be crushed by many mountains. You will be crushed, right?
As for your attacks, the water is heavy. It can withstand your attacks easily.
Also, the water is moving and passing on the force. Not even a lord's attack can make the water ripple, let alone you. "
Lu Li had an image in his mind. Many huge iron balls were gathered together and moving. A kid was patting on the iron balls. He was counting on the iron balls to keep vibrating …
Every drop of water was as heavy as a mountain. They were moving and passing on the force.
Many mountains were moving. Anything that entered the mountains would be crushed into dust.
"What should I do?"
Lu Li was troubled. He felt he could not solve the problem. If he could not get the materials, he would still be troubled by Martial Emperors.
"I don't have a solution!"
