The 300 horses galloped in the barren mountains, causing the ground to shake.
The wind and snow had stopped for some time, but it had not melted yet. Luckily, the snow on the road was not thick, so it was not a hindrance for them to walk on.
In just four hours, Lu Li had completely mastered the horse. He had been observing the warriors of the Liu Family in front of him, learning and mastering the knack of riding.
One must not use too much strength to ride a horse, but vigor. Not only must the horse cooperate with the rider, but the rider must also cooperate with the horse.
In this way, the horse would run with less effort, and it would recognize the new master on its back.
At noon, the team stopped to rest by the black woods. The warriors of the Liu Family started a fire to roast meat.
Lu Li was not familiar with the warriors of the Liu Family, and nobody paid any attention to him. He had to sit under a tree and eat the dried meat Lu Ling gave him.
In the distance, Liu Yi was surrounded by a group of people, like stars surrounding the moon. She looked over but didn't ask Lu Li to join her to eat.
Lu Li, on the other hand, would not ask for trouble. He ate the dried meat by himself and listened to the chatter of several warriors not far away.
"This time, those Big Families are in deep trouble …"
"Yes, yes. In order to get the Origin Blood Essence of the Beast King, they made us suffer. My third brother died in the battle at the Frigid Cloud Mountain!"
"The Beast King is comparable to a powerful warrior of the Human Sovereign Realm.
Even though this Beast King had just given birth and was at the end of its life, how powerful was it?
I think many of the Big Families have died as well.
It has been such a long time, and they still can't kill the Beast King … "
"When can the Beast Upheaval be suppressed?
If this goes on, all the Families in the Wu Ling County will be wiped out! "
"…"
Lu Li gained a lot of information from the chatter of the warriors of the Liu Family. He also understood the reason for the Beast Upheaval.
According to the warriors, a Beast King in the Ice Abyss was about to die of old age, but it gave birth, which hurt its vitality.
When the Super Families learned about this, they all swarmed over, trying to get the Origin Blood Essence and the precious materials of the internal pellet in the body of the Beast King.
However, they underestimated the power of the Beast King. They were beaten back several times and suffered heavy casualties.
The Beast King was enraged. It ordered countless Xuan Beasts to attack and caused the Beast Upheaval.
Even though there were many powerful warriors of the Super Families, how could they contain all the Xuan Beasts?
Therefore, he had to rely on the families in the Wu Ling County, big or small.
All the Families in the Wu Ling County had been mobilized. There were also adult males from all the tribes. At the moment, they formed several lines of defense on the Frigid Cloud Mountain to defend against the Beast Upheaval.
"Beast Monarch …"
Lu Li couldn't help but exclaim. The Beast King was a Xuan Beast of the Seventh Rank. Maybe one strike from it could destroy the Wu Ling County.
The battle between the experts of the super families and the Beast King was a spectacular and terrifying scene.
…
After resting for an hour, the group set off again. This time, they only stopped at dusk.
There was a huge mountain in front of them, like a natural moat. According to the warriors of the Liu Family, this was the Frigid Cloud Mountain. After crossing the Frigid Cloud Mountain, they would be in the territory of the Ice Abyss.
Da da da!
A few silver wolves galloped over from afar and exchanged a few words with Liu Yi. Liu Yi waved her hand and said, "Let's go to the Cold Cloud Canyon. Our mission this time is to guard the canyon for half a month."
Liu Yi led the group along the winding mountain path. When the sky was completely dark, the group arrived outside a canyon.
There were many tents and many warriors of the Liu Family.
Horrifying!
Facing the torch, Lu Li looked around and was secretly shocked.
Blood stains and bones of Xuan Beasts were everywhere at the entrance of the canyon. The boulder ground at the entrance of the canyon was full of scratches. Clearly, many horrifying battles had taken place here.
Many warriors in the camp were badly wounded. Some had broken hands and feet …
Naturally, there were people who came to settle down the warriors of the Liu Family. Lu Li was assigned to a big tent.
The smell of herbs filled the tent. Five wounded people were lying on the ground. They didn't pay any attention to Lu Li when they saw him.
Lu Li ate some dried food. He didn't care about anything else. He sat on the bed with his legs crossed and started to cultivate.
For him, every minute and every second was precious. Every bit of improvement in his fighting capacity would increase his chances of survival.
After cultivating for half the night, Lu Li fell into a deep sleep. At dawn, noises came from the canyon along with the roars of Xuan Beasts.
Lu Li got up and looked outside. He saw more than 20 warriors of the Liu Family at the entrance of the canyon, fighting against the Xuan Beasts that were roaring and rushing out.
Lu Li was not a warrior of the Liu Family. He was only here to participate in the assessment mission. Therefore, nobody organized for him to join the battle.
Lu Li thought about it and ate some dried meat hastily. He carried his Heaven Kylin Sword and rushed towards the entrance of the canyon.
The assessment mission was to kill 100 Xuan Beasts of the First Rank or one of the Second Rank.
Clearly, the Xuan Beasts that came out this time were all of the First Rank. Lu Li should be able to kill them easily.
He could run into danger at any time. Who knew if there would be any accidents?
Lu Li wanted to finish the mission as soon as possible.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance of the canyon. He saw Liu Yi and Patriarch Hong nearby. There was also a middle-aged powerful warrior of the Liu Family. Judging from his qi and energy, he should have reached the Spirit Sea Realm.
However, they didn't make any moves. They just watched from afar.
"Lady Yi, I want to join the fight!"
Lu Li walked over to Liu Yi and asked. The latter nodded slightly. Lu Li immediately rushed towards the entrance of the canyon like a ferocious tiger.
"Woo, woo ~"
The canyon was not wide. Only more than a dozen Xuan Beasts could pass through side by side. From afar, Lu Li could see that the inside of the canyon was full of Xuan Beasts. All of them were big black wolves.
These wolves were different from regular ones. They had sharp horns on their heads, and there were some bone spurs on their backs. Their tusks were especially long. They were twice the size of regular wolves, comparable to the Silver Wolf that Liu Yi was riding on.
Iron Spur Wolf!
This was one of the more common Xuan Beasts. Lu Li had seen them before. Of course … if he ran into one, he would run away as soon as he could.
The reason was that the Iron Spur Wolves would either not come out at all, or when they did, there would be at least more than a hundred of them. If he were surrounded, he would die for sure.
Lu Li rushed over and squeezed into the crowd. He saw an Iron Spur Wolf howling towards him. He mobilized his Xuan Energy, swung his Heaven Kylin Sword and cut at the wolf's head.
"Bang!"
Lu Li had more than 11,000 pounds of strength. Now that he used his Xuan Energy, his strength was increased by several thousand pounds. Plus, the Heaven Kylin Sword weighed more than 2000 pounds.
Therefore, this cut was so powerful that it smashed the Iron Spur Wolf away. Also, its head was smashed in the middle and turned into a pile of rotten meat.
"Nice!"
A warrior of the Liu Family cheered loudly. He was also in the middle stage of the Xuan Martial Arts Realm, but it was difficult for him to deal with the Iron Spur Wolf.
As soon as Lu Li arrived, he killed an Iron Spur Wolf. Without a doubt, Lu Li had a powerful reinforcement, which greatly reduced the pressure on him.
Liu Yi and the others were all paying attention to this side. She and Old Hong both sighed. The Divine Sea Realm Liu Family Outer Hall Elder frowned and asked, "Miss Yi, this young man is quite strong and he is also at the middle stage of the Xuan Wu Realm. He is a good seedling. Why haven't you recruited him into the Outer Hall?"
"It's not just not bad."
Liu Yi shook her head and said, "I reckon that it took him less than a month to cultivate his Xuan Qi to the middle stage of the Xuan Martial Realm. His talent is very terrifying."
The Outer Hall Elder's eyes flashed with even more doubt. Elder Hong explained, "It's not that Young Mistress doesn't want to recruit him, but this kid only wants to join the Guest Hall. No matter how we persuade him, he won't agree …"
"You don't know how to tell good from bad!"
The Outer Hall Elder's eyes turned cold, and he snorted and said, "Without the family's resources to nurture, what future can there be no matter how talented he is?
This kid is too stupid. "
Spirit Sea, Soul Pond, Fate Wheel, Everlasting Realm!
The advancement of any realm was extremely difficult. For example, condensing the Spirit Sea. If there was help from a big family and precious pellets and Mystical Grasses were given, the speed of condensing the Spirit Sea would be greatly increased.
On the contrary, it would be very difficult to collect Mystical Materials by oneself. Without the help of Mystical Materials, condensing the Spirit Sea would be very difficult as well.
There were many warriors of the Xuan Wu Realm in each tribe, but the number of powerful warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm was pitifully small.
For example, Di Ba was the only warrior of the Spirit Sea Realm in the Di Long Tribe. It was because of the lack of resources.
Why did Di Ba want to join the Zhao Family and be ordered around by the Zhao Family?
It was also because the Zhao Family had resources that the Di Long Tribe didn't have, which could speed up his cultivation and make him stronger.
"He is really stupid!"
Liu Yi sighed again and said helplessly, "If he insists on doing things his own way, I won't care about him anymore.
If he is assassinated by Di Ba, he has only himself to blame. "
