Lu Li did not ask for help when he was trying to reach the Emperor Realm.
Once he asked for help, it meant that he was afraid.
Once a person was afraid, there would be demons in their hearts. Without the courage to press forward, how could a warrior reach the Emperor Realm?
Lu Li was confident. His source of energy was abundant, his physical body was strong, and so was his soul. He had reached the later stage of the Emperor Realm and was very close to the peak of it.
Last time, when Lu Li killed so many Abyssal Demon warriors, his soul was devoured by the Soul Devouring Bead.
The absorption of so much soul energy had strengthened Lu Li's soul. He felt his soul energy was about to materialize.
Once it did, his soul would be as powerful as a Saint King's.
Lu Li did not take the test at the City of Mystic Armor, nor did he go to the Platform for Trials. Instead, he planned to take the test in the wild.
He did not tell anyone because he did not want the Lu Family to worry about him.
If someone was worried about him, he would have more concerns and he would not be able to focus on the test.
After he came out from cultivation, he did not ask about the Third Plane or the situation at the front. He did not even ask if Lu Ling had come back.
He wanted to forget everything and focus on reaching the Emperor Realm.
He chose another territory to the north of the City of Mystic Armor, which belonged to a major family of the Chilly Winter Land.
He stealthily sneaked all the way here and found a deep forest.
Making sure that there was nobody within a radius of three thousand miles, he let Blood Fairy out and asked her to build formations.
Even though he was confident, he wanted to be careful. This Heaven's Test would be different from other Heaven's Tests. It would be hundreds of times more powerful.
After the Heaven's Test, he would have an emperor's body and his abilities would be enhanced. The risk was proportional to the reward.
During this time, Blood Fairy had been trying to decipher the ancient painting and the ring. She hadn't been able to refine the ancient painting or the ring that came with the horn. She hadn't been able to refine either.
Blood Fairy had been regretting it. After her evolution, she had been studying the two treasures.
Unfortunately …
The two treasures were too mysterious. Blood Fairy had been studying them for a long time and yet, she could not make a breakthrough.
That being said, her ability to build formations had improved after the evolution. Lu Li wanted her to build some formations to help him fend off the Heaven's Test.
It would take time to build the formation, but Lu Li was not in a hurry. He sat on a mountain to consume the pellets. At the same time, he adjusted his mind so that he could be absolutely calm.
Five days later, Blood Fairy finished building the formations. First, she built a formation that could trigger Heaven's Tests. Then, she built several defensive formations. Thunderbolts, flames, and other types of energy would be dispersed when they entered the formations. In this way, Lu Li would feel less pressured.
"Begin!"
Lu Li used psychic power to check the surroundings. Making sure that nobody was around, he stood up with his hands clasped behind his back. His robe and hair were fluttering in the wind. Lu Li felt like he was floating in the air.
"Hum ~"
The Divine Rune lit up and a ray of light shot up to the sky. At the same time, the three shields lit up, covering Lu Li and the entire mountain.
A surge of might came down from the sky. Following that, many clouds gathered above Lu Li's head.
As the clouds gathered, the mighty might became more and more horrifying, suffocating Lu Li.
Blood Fairy immediately began to flee. Otherwise, if she stayed, she would be blasted to pieces.
"Come on!"
Gazing into the sky, Lu Li's eyes glowed. He did not do anything. He just stood there with his hands clasped behind his back. There were seven stages of Heaven's Tests in total. The first stages were not a problem for him.
If he could not handle the first stages, then why would he go through the Heaven's Test?
"Boom, boom, boom ~"
From the sky came a thunderous noise that spread to an area with a radius of three thousand miles. People in the nearby cities were alarmed.
Countless people soared into the sky and looked over, their faces filled with shock.
"Is … someone going through a Heaven's Test?"
"Such horrifying might. How many Heaven's Tests has it been?"
"I think it is at least the sixth. Let's go and take a look!"
"Let's go and see which powerful warrior is coming from.
Is there a lord or a great emperor coming out? "
"Wow, if it is a great emperor, then it will be impressive. I must go and take a look."
There were four small cities nearby and one medium-sized city. There were no experts in the cities, and there was only one lord in the medium-sized city.
That was why Lu Li chose to go through the Heaven's Test here.
If there were no powerful warriors, then nobody would disturb him.
Tens of thousands of people flew out from the five cities and came from all sides.
However, before they could get close to Lu Li, they were frightened by the might above his head.
The might was horrifying. They felt if they were too close, they would be crushed to death by the might, let alone the thunderbolts.
The mountain where Lu Li was at had several shields that could isolate psychic power. Lu Li had told Blood Fairy to do this in case someone nearby would use psychic power to check and disturb his Heaven's Test.
"Splash ~"
High in the sky, a bolt of lightning with a length of two miles came out. Following that, a purple dragon hovered in the sky and then smashed down.
At that moment, the might was extremely horrifying. Many onlookers felt their hearts were about to jump out.
"This must be the seventh Heaven's Test. I have seen the sixth Heaven's Test and it is nothing compared to this!"
"Someone is going to reach the Great Emperor Realm?
Who is it?
There are no more Great Emperor Realms nearby. They have all gone to the Flying Fire Continent! "
"Is it … that warrior from the City of Mystic Armor?"
"You mean General Yong Yi?
Didn't he reach the Great Emperor Realm a long time ago?
Why is he still going through the Heaven's Test? "
"Don't talk and don't use psychic power to check. Don't disturb that warrior.
Today, we may have the honor to witness the birth of a Great Emperor Realm warrior. "
After a moment of hubbub, the crowd quieted down. This was the seventh Heaven's Test for sure. If the warrior could pass the Heaven's Test successfully, then a Great Emperor would be born. This was a chance that came once in a blue moon, enough for many to brag about for the rest of their lives.
"Impressive!"
Lu Li ignored everyone else. He kept his eyes on the sky. When the purple thunderbolt came down, Lu Li did not use the Dragon Wrestling Skill, nor did he use the Dragon Transformation or the armor of Origin Energy. He was relying on his physical strength.
"Boom!"
The thunderbolt was as thick as a human head. All the thunderbolts struck into Lu Li's body but he did not tremble one bit. Only his hair began to smoke and his robe was burned.
"Well …"
Lu Li checked his body. He was satisfied. The thunderbolt was powerful but it did not cause him any harm. He began to use the Lightning Gathering Formation to absorb the thunderbolts.
As long as the thunderbolts did not cause him great harm right away, he could absorb the energy of the thunderbolts.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom!"
The thunderbolts kept on coming. The thunderbolts were getting more and more powerful. Lu Li never used the Dragon Transformation or the armor of Origin Energy. He only used the Dragon Wrestling Skill during the last few thunderbolts.
He didn't want to get hurt. The next few Heaven's Tests would be more and more horrifying. If he were to get hurt now, how could he survive later?
