Cultivation, gathering divine materials, assisting in the refinement of artifacts, and then cultivation!
Lu Li repeated this life. Ever since he went to the Yama Mountain, he never came out again.
The Heaven Emperor Universe was vast with many strange places. It was a pity that Lu Li had no chance to go to any of them.
Soon, two years had passed. Lu Li had been cultivating for two years. Apart from the improvement of his physical body and the stabilization of his realm, he didn't make much progress.
The only thing that made a difference was that Lu Li was recognized by Emperor Wu.
Lu Li carried out everything Emperor Wu asked him to do perfectly. Emperor Wu could not find any fault with him.
Emperor Wu rarely talked to Lu Li. Apart from forging artifacts, Lu Li was busy with other things. Over the past two years, Lu Li had made nine Relic weapons. Lu Li wondered if they were Sovereign Weapons.
Lu Li believed they were only half-finished products. Otherwise, if Sovereign Weapons could be made so easily, the streets would be filled with them. At least, every disciple of the Heaven Emperor Sect would have one.
Since Emperor Wu didn't talk to Lu Li, Lu Li didn't ask. He rarely communicated with Emperor Wu.
But Lu Li could tell from Emperor Wu's eyes that he approved of him. At first, Emperor Wu didn't just look at Lu Li with displeasure, there was also killing intent …
Today, Lu Li helped Emperor Wu make another Relic weapon. Normally, Emperor Wu would tell Lu Li to take a rest.
But today, Emperor Wu waved his hand and said, "Little Lu, we have half a year to go, right?"
Lu Li was surprised. Why did Emperor Wu mention this?
Lu Li answered honestly, "Yes, Lord Emperor Wu. I have five and a half months."
"Oh!"
Emperor Wu waved his hand and said, "Okay. From today on, you don't have to work. Focus on cultivation and prepare for the tests."
"Thank you, Emperor Wu!" Lu Li bowed at once.
Emperor Wu took out a jade talisman from his Interspatial Ring and said, "I know you have been longing for the fifth Heavenly Tribulation. Take my token and go to Patriarch Gu. Ask him to arrange it for you.
Personally, I don't recommend you to go. But I don't think I can persuade you otherwise. Here are some words for you — follow your heart and follow nature. "
Lu Li bowed again. This time, he was truly grateful.
The Martial Emperor had disregarded their former enmity and taken the initiative to remind him. This was already a favor.
Even though Martial Emperor Wu had tried to harm Lu Li, he was a man of integrity and had a clear distinction between love and hate. Lu Li enjoyed dealing with people like him.
Lu Li left and went back to the cabin. He remembered the eight words that Martial Emperor Wu gave him. After a while, he sat down with his legs crossed to cultivate again.
He cultivated for two months. Apart from absorbing the cold air and stabilizing his realm, Lu Li had been thinking about how to pacify his inner demons and make his mind impeccable.
A month later, he came out of seclusion and walked down Yama Mountain. There was a teleportation gate at the foot of the mountain, and as soon as he stepped in, he arrived outside the Elder Hall.
At this moment, a group of disciples walked out of the Elder's Hall. There were both men and women. The men looked impressive, and the women were beautiful and noble.
All of them wore a six-pointed star symbol on their chests. This was the symbol of an official disciple.
Lu Li didn't have the habit of wearing brocade robes so he wore an average cyan robe. He didn't dress himself up. His hair was a bit messy. Compared to these people, he looked like a beggar.
As soon as Lu Li came out, he walked toward the Elder Hall without looking at these people. However, when he was about to step into the hall, a man in front of him blocked his way.
Lu Li looked up and saw a young man at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation staring at him coldly. Lu Li thought about it, cupped his fists and said, "Sir, why are you stopping me? What can I do for you?"
"What can I do for you?"
The young warrior was arrogant. He said coldly, "You are a registered disciple, right?
Do you think you can come and go as you please?
Can you afford to offend a patriarch? "
Lu Li touched his nose speechlessly. He didn't want to waste time. He took out the token of Martial Emperor Wu and said, "I am here under orders. Are you going to stop me?"
"Hmm!"
The young man took a look at the token. He was embarrassed. He glared at Lu Li and said, "You are a registered disciple. Shouldn't you bow to us?
Don't you know the rules? "
"Fine!"
Lu Li bowed, cupped his fists and said, "Nice to meet you, brothers and sisters."
"Pff, how dare you!"
The young man sneered, "You are a registered disciple. How dare you call us brothers and sisters?
Also, the assessment is coming soon. Maybe you won't even be a registered disciple anymore. "
Lu Li didn't want to waste time with someone like this. He said nothing. He cupped his fists and walked straight in.
The young man flew into a rage. However, Lu Li had gone in. He didn't dare to make a scene in the Elder Hall. The young man thought about it and said, "You are Lu Li, right?
You can be arrogant now. But if I don't make you cry during the assessment, I will not be Chu Yan. "
Lu Li walked into the Elder Hall and met Patriarch Gu easily with the Martial Emperor Wu's token.
After he stated his purpose, Patriarch Gu generously asked someone to show him to the Tribulation Platform.
Registered disciples were not allowed to use the Tribulation Platform. However, since Martial Emperor Wu had spoken, Patriarch Gu wouldn't say much.
What confused Patriarch Gu was — didn't Sovereign Wu find Lu Li an eyesore?
Why did he speak up for Lu Li?
Lu Li was shown to the Tribulation Platform by a deacon. It was on a mountain. There was more than one Tribulation Platform. There were three.
"Eh?
So many people?
Has the news of my tribulation been spread out?
But it doesn't make sense for so many people to come and watch. "
After Lu Li teleported to the peak, he saw at least dozens of people gathered here. Wang Ningxue and Hu Shimeng were still here. Some of them were official disciples and some registered disciples were here as well.
"Wait!"
Soon, Lu Li understood. There was another person standing on the other Tribulation Platform, a handsome young man with a sword in his hand. Who else could it be other than Guan Qianqiu?
Guan Qianqiu was undergoing tribulation as well and it was about to begin.
Those people were here to watch Guan Qianqiu's tribulation. There were two Quasi Emperors among them. Clearly, they were patriarchs of the Heaven Emperor Sect. They must be from the Guan Family.
"Swish ~"
Lightning flashed in the sky. Guan Qianqiu had begun the tribulation. Lu Li's mind was weighed down as well.
This was Guan Qianqiu's sixth tribulation. Once he made it, he would be a lord.
How could Guan Qianqiu compete with a lord if they were to take the test together?
"Well?
Lu Li? "
Wang Ningxue noticed Lu Li. She shouted in surprise. Hu Shimeng turned to Lu Li at once. He dashed to Lu Li's side, patted Lu Li's shoulder and said, "Ha, ha, ha, Brother Lu Li, I finally get to meet you."
Many people looked over. Guan Qianqiu, who was on the Tribulation Platform, noticed this as well. Guan Qianqiu glanced over. His eyes were filled with hatred and resentment.
He did not look for long. Soon, he closed his eyes because the tribulation had begun.
Lu Li, Hu Shimeng, and Wang Ningxue exchanged some pleasantries. Then, he turned to Guan Qianqiu and asked, "Lady Ningxue, how is the success rate for Guan Qianqiu this time?"
"Very high!"
Wang Ningxue replied with certainty, "Guan Qianqiu has made great progress recently. More importantly, his family has given him a top-level Tribulation Pellet.
This pellet is as valuable as half a Sovereign Weapon. If everything goes well, Guan Qianqiu can pass the sixth tribulation easily! "
"I see!"
Lu Li's mind was weighed down. Wang Ningxue asked with curiosity, "Are you here to watch Guan Qianqiu as well?"
