Lu Li went back to the Northern Demon City and went into closed-door cultivation to heal his wounds. He told the patriarchs of the Qi Family not to tell anyone about this.
He had been healing in his room for four or five days and his wounds were all healed.
He went to the North City King's Fortress and reported Qian Yuan's words to the Reincarnation Emperor.
Qian Yuan's words were full of confidence. Lu Li felt that the Demon Ancestor could come at any time.
The Reincarnation Emperor stroked his beard and said, "Hanyu, Qian, Yu, these are the most powerful surnames in the Demonic Abyss. Usually, only the Demon Ancestor can have the surname Hanyu. The surname Qian is of the Emperor Realm, but not all Emperor Realm warriors are qualified to have this surname.
The Demon Ancestor that attacked you was not very strong, but he had a high status.
Since he said so, I think there will be a Demon Ancestor coming in dozens of years. Maybe … the Demon Ancestor is already here. "
"Ah?" Lu Li was shocked and said, "Then what should we do?
Who can stop the Demon Ancestor? "
"Wait …"
Lu Li suddenly remembered the speculation of the Blood Evil King. He looked at the Reincarnation Emperor with doubt and said, "Emperor, are there still Saint Kings in the Third Heaven?
They just haven't shown up yet? "
"Yes!"
The Samsara Emperor said with great certainty. He paused before explaining, "The Zhu family has a Saint King and the Feng Empress' clan has a Saint King as well. There are around a dozen Saint Kings in the entire Third Heavenly Layer?"
"How is that possible?"
Lu Li was shocked again and confused. If there were so many Saint Kings, why didn't they do something earlier? Why did they let the Demonic Abyss army wreak havoc in the Third Heaven?
Seeing the confusion in Lu Li's eyes, the Reincarnation Emperor thought about it and explained, "But those Saint Emperors were all in a half-dead state. None of them were alive. Maybe there are living Saint Emperors in the Third Heaven, but I have never seen or heard of them."
"Half-dead?"
Lu Li was completely confused. They were either dead or alive. What did he mean by half-dead?
"The Super Families all have a strong foundation. This is the source that ensures that their families will not be destroyed!"
The Reincarnation Emperor exclaimed, "Many families have existed for more than one million years. Even a Super Family like the Zhu Family has existed for at least two million years. what do they rely on?
They rely on the rise of generation after generation of powerful warriors and the existence of the family's foundation.
There are two kinds of trump cards. One is a Saint Weapon, and the other is a half-dead Saint Emperor! "
"The Zhu family once produced a Saint Emperor, and a super powerful Saint Emperor at that!"
The Reincarnation Emperor continued, "This Saint Emperor once unified the East Feather Continent, and the Zhu family reached its peak at that time.
But in the end, the Saint Emperor of the Zhu Clan still died. Before he died, he used a heaven-defying divine technique to seal himself in ice, maintaining his immortal state.
When the clan is in danger, they can awaken this Saint Emperor. However, this Saint Emperor can only release three attacks at most before his soul completely disperses. This is the half-dead state. "
"I got it!"
Lu Li nodded. He was shocked by the means of the Saint Emperors as well. They had been dead for over a million years. How could the Saint Emperors survive?
He could even release attacks?
Although he had only released a few attacks, it was enough to deter countless experts who wanted to attack them. Even the Reincarnation Emperor might not be able to withstand an attack from a Saint Emperor, right?
This was where the true foundation of a rich and powerful family lay. It could intimidate all invading enemies.
A dozen half-dead Saint Emperors?
It sounded scary, but Lu Li thought about it. It didn't seem to be of much use.
The half-dead Saint Emperors were definitely not as powerful as they were at their peak. Nobody knew if they could kill the Lord of Demon.
More importantly, these Saint Emperors could not be moved. They could only guard the major families. The Lord of Demon could totally avoid these families or use a large number of Demon Abyss warriors to flatten these families.
"If the Lord of Demon really came!"
The Reincarnation Emperor said with a serious face, "then the Third Heaven might really be in danger. If there are still living Saint Emperors in the Third Heaven, we might still be saved. If not, we can only count on you guys."
"Count on us?"
Lu Li put on a bitter smile. What was the use of relying on him?
He was almost killed by the Lord of Demon a few days ago. He had cultivated his soul for such a long time that he thought his soul attacks were powerful. He didn't expect that they had no effect on the Lord of Demon.
His combat ability was still too weak. He couldn't even kill the Lord of Demon, let alone the Lord of Demon.
Seeing his frustration, the Reincarnation Emperor smiled and said, "You are wondering why your soul attacks are ineffective on the Lord of Demon, right?
You don't know the Lord of Demon. His soul is hidden.
If your soul attacks cannot find the core of his soul, then they will not be affected.
What's more, your soul attacks are not that powerful! "
"Not powerful?"
Lu Li raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then how can I make my soul attacks more powerful?"
"Simple!"
The Reincarnation Emperor said seriously, "I don't know much about souls, but the principles of the world are the same.
Take the Fundamental Principles of a law for example. That is to use the force of heaven and earth to form powerful attacks or skills.
Needless to say … the more complicated the Fundamental Principles of a law are, the more powerful they will be and the more force of heaven and earth will be used. "
Lu Li nodded in agreement. The Reincarnation Emperor continued, "I have seen your soul attacks. Soul energy is scattered. You rely on the scattered soul energy to attack continuously. It is more like millions of Soul Needles piercing the enemy's soul. Am I right?"
"That is right!"
Lu Li nodded. His Wind Spirit and the Law of Sound were similar in this way. Even though the methods and modes of attack were different, one was an area attack and the other could reach further. But in the end, they both relied on the Soul Needles.
"You rely on the endless Soul Needles to attack!"
The Reincarnation Emperor pointed out a way for Lu Li and said, "What if your Soul Needles are condensed into a sword of soul and pierced into the enemy's soul? Can you destroy the enemy's soul in an instant?
What if your Soul Needles don't attack when they enter the enemy's soul? Instead, they gather together and suddenly explode in the enemy's soul?
What kind of result would that be? "
"Eh?"
Lu Li felt enlightened. His whole body quivered. He could imagine that if soul attacks could really be as powerful as what the Reincarnation Emperor said, then the power would be horrifying.
Even if the enemy had a powerful Enchanted Soul, the sword formed from the soul energy could shatter the enemy's Enchanted Soul and destroy the enemy's soul.
The enemy's Enchanted Soul might not even have the time to protect itself before the soul was shattered.
The second mode of attack mentioned by the Reincarnation Emperor was even more powerful.
Once the soul energy exploded in the soul, the Enchanted Soul would not be able to withstand it no matter how powerful it was. The soul would be shattered instantly.
Once something went wrong with the soul, the warrior would die no matter how powerful he was.
The more Lu Li thought about it, the more he felt it made sense. At that moment, he was confused. He remembered some patterns that seemed to be explaining the principle of condensing soul energy.
"Ancient silk!"
Lu Li's soul trembled. He took out the ancient silk at once and began to read it. After a while, his eyes glowed. Regardless of everything else, he sat down with his legs crossed and began to study.
"You are really smart!"
The Reincarnation Emperor nodded and left quietly, leaving Lu Li to study and cultivate by himself.
