A Great Emperor, and a powerful one at that. How terrifying was it to unleash his killing intent?
At this moment, Lu Li felt like he couldn't breathe and his blood was frozen.
Lu Li said at once, "Lord Emperor Wu, the heavy water did not seep away. I built a Divine Pattern to keep the heavy water."
"Oh?"
Emperor Wu threw Lu Li to the side and dashed out like a gust of wind.
After the time for one incense stick to burn, he came back. He stared at Lu Li with mixed feelings and asked, "You know about Divine Patterns?"
Lu Li nodded and said, "A little …"
"You call this a little bit?"
Emperor Wu glared at Lu Li and said, "That Divine Pattern was built by a powerful warrior in our sect. You can crack it easily. You call that a little?
Excessive modesty is arrogance. I hate hypocrites the most. "
Lu Li touched his nose and said nothing else. Emperor Wu thought for a while and said, "There are three more materials that you haven't collected but you have accomplished your task. You don't have to collect the other three. We still have some in storage.
Stay here for half a month. After that, you can help me with the artifact forging and go out. "
Emperor Wu waved his hand. Lu Li walked out and went back to the cabin. Lu Li was relieved. The Blood Evil Emperor was right. Instead of punishing Lu Li, Emperor Wu had changed his opinion of Lu Li.
Lu Li sat for a while. He had nothing to do so he decided to absorb the cold air outside. The cold air could strengthen his body. There was cold air coming out from underground. It would be a waste not to absorb it.
While Lu Li was absorbing the cold air, he was consolidating the soul skill he learned. This skill could condense soul energy into wind and kill people from thousands of miles away. It was domineering.
Even though he had learned it, he still needed to consolidate it.
Half a month later, the "Wind Soul" was consolidated and he had absorbed a lot of cold air. Lu Li's body was further improved. But not by much, only two or three times.
For his current physical strength, two or three times was equal to consuming tens of thousands of elixirs.
Emperor Wu was reading an ancient book in the hall. He threw a casual look at Lu Li and was surprised again. "Punk, your physical strength has improved again?"
"Two or three times."
This time, Lu Li did not pretend to be modest. He explained, "I have absorbed some cold air and my physical strength has improved."
"Freak!"
Emperor Wu pouted. He threw some books to Lu Li and said, "Take a look and learn all the information. In a couple of days, help me forge artifacts. If something goes wrong and I lose control of myself in a fit of anger, you will be in danger."
Lu Li took over the books at once. He was relieved. They were all books on forging artifacts with introductions of various materials and some basic knowledge about forging artifacts.
Naturally, the methods of forging artifacts in the Endless Ruins were much more complicated and mysterious than those in the Divinity. However, Lu Li had a certain foundation in forging artifacts, so he could understand them at first glance.
Of course, he did not dare to be careless. A few days ago, a Martial Emperor had failed to refine a weapon. That appearance was very frightening.
If he were to fail because of his mistake, he would really be torn apart.
Lu Li studied for several days and gained a clear understanding of all the materials. He also memorized the steps and tricks of forging artifacts.
Lu Li was curious about what kind of weapon Martial Emperor was going to make.
Could he be forging a Monarch Weapon?
Lu Li had a Monarch Weapon and he had seen many. But he did not know how to forge a Monarch Weapon.
Emperor Wu seemed to be ready as well. He looked at Lu Li and asked, "Are you done?
Are there any problems? "
"I don't think so," Lu Li replied.
"What do you mean by I don't think so?"
Emperor Wu glared at Lu Li and yelled, "Yes means yes and no means no. Let me tell you, if something goes wrong, you will lose your life."
What else could Lu Li say? He made up his mind and said, "Lord, I am fine!"
"Okay!"
Emperor Wu waved his hand and said, "Go to the side hall over there and take out one hundred Purple Phosphorus Stones, one hundred pieces of Mixed Flame Stones, one hundred portions of Whiskey Powder, one hundred …"
Emperor Wu listed dozens of materials in one go. Lu Li went to the side hall and took them out soon. There was nothing wrong.
When he was forging artifacts, these were all basic skills. Naturally, he would not have any problems with this.
Emperor Wu nodded and then patted that huge tripod stove. The stove glowed. Emperor Wu looked at Lu Li and said, "Put three Purple Phosphorus Stones, three pieces of Mixed Flame Stones, and three portions of Whiskey Powder in there."
Lu Li took out the materials at once and put them into the stove accurately. His movements were natural and he did not seem to be in a hurry.
Emperor Wu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you ever forged artifacts before?"
Lu Li answered honestly, "Yes, I learned it for a while, but I only know a little!"
"Oh!"
Emperor Wu answered indifferently and began to work on the artifact. He asked Lu Li to put in more materials while he engraved various patterns and marks of laws into the embryo.
"A piece of Meteoric Iron!"
"Three pieces of Half Moon Stone …"
"Heat up the stove!"
"Activate the patterns and guide the Frigid Energy. It is about to take shape!"
"Okay, turn off the patterns at once. There is too much Frigid Energy!"
Emperor Wu gave orders and Lu Li carried them out with precision. Emperor Wu was sweating and so were Lu Li's palms.
This was a matter of his life. If something went wrong, who knew what Emperor Wu would do in a fit of rage?
Emperor Wu worked from morning to midnight. Finally, he stopped. He waved his hand to let Lu Li rest while he kept an eye on the stove.
He kept an eye on it until midnight. The next day, Emperor Wu shouted again for Lu Li to cooperate.
"Open!"
In the afternoon, Emperor Wu patted the stove and the lid was opened. A glaring sword flew out. Emperor Wu grabbed it with one hand. He took a look and laughed, "Ha, ha, ha, ha, good. I have made it!"
Lu Li was taken aback after a few glances. Sure enough, Emperor Wu was making a weapon.
This weapon was similar to a Sovereign Weapon but much weaker. It must be nurtured by a warrior at the Great Emperor Realm for many years and refined for many years.
The Martial Emperor brandished the Divine Weapon a few times before nodding his head in satisfaction. "Brat, you've done well this time. Your previous mistakes are written off. This old man is very clear about gratitude and grudges. I will not target you in the future.
In the next couple of years, help me forge artifacts and cultivate. Try to pass the assessment and become an official disciple of the Heaven Emperor Sect. "
"Thank you, Lord Emperor Wu."
Lu Li bowed and breathed in relief. This Emperor Wu was a straightforward man. He would speak his mind and would not hold back.
Since this man had spoken, he would not deliberately make things difficult for Lu Li. Lu Li's life in the future would be easier.
"Assessment …"
Lu Li felt troubled at the thought of the assessment. It was said that the assessment was harsh. Usually, only one out of 10 could stay. Sometimes, none could stay.
Three years was a short time. Could Lu Li's abilities improve by leaps and bounds?
Could he pass the assessment?
"Tribulation, the fifth one!"
