Of course, Lu Li wanted the Immortal Beast. But he knew that greed could lead a man to his death.
All the young warriors of the nearby forces were here. There were tens of millions of warriors and hundreds of powerful warriors that were close to the consummate realm.
The powerful warriors that were close to the consummate realm might not make a move. There seemed to be an agreement among the races that the young warriors would fight for it, the Saint Kings would fight for it, and the most powerful warriors would not do anything.
But once Lu Li got it, all the races and forces would be united against a common enemy. They would besiege Lu Li like crazy.
Therefore, after some consideration, Lu Li decided to take a detour instead of going through the center. It was too dangerous.
The young masters and young ladies of the big families would have powerful warriors with them.
Lu Li rested in the city for a day and then flew to the north quietly. He chose to take a detour of hundreds of millions of miles. It would take him a month or two more, but Lu Li didn't mind. It didn't matter if he got there earlier or later.
The war over at Lu Xiaobai's side would not end so soon. The descendants of the King of the Eastern Region would not die so easily.
Going to the north, Lu Li ran into many battleships along the way. Those battleships all went in a straight line without stopping.
Every time, Lu Li would hide in a low-key manner. None of the warriors noticed him. Even if some powerful warriors did notice him, they didn't bother him.
It was a smooth journey. After half a month, there were no more battleships. Lu Li sped up and flew to the east.
There were no more warriors here. Lu Li and Zixi moved forward easily. Lu Li was disguised as an old man and Zixi was in her original appearance. It looked like an old man with his granddaughter.
"There are Immortal Beasts up ahead, and more than one!"
On this day, Zixi suddenly called out. Lu Li quickly went into Stealth and then quickly went to the side.
But as soon as he went around, several gusts of evil wind came. Then three huge insects rushed over. Before they got close, Lu Li could smell the stench and the horrifying qi and blood.
"Woo, woo ~"
The three Immortal Beasts roared, shaking the mountains and forests. Lu Li's ears hurt.
When Lu Li was about to enter the Dharma Realm, Zixi waved her hand and said, "Brother Lu, let me do it!"
Zixi walked to the front and opened her arms. Then, her body lit up with green light. Her eyes also lit up with green light. The green light spread out like ripples and spread to where the three big worms were.
Something very wondrous happened. The three late Saint Kings actually stopped moving and began to tremble, as if they had seen the king of beasts.
Lu Li was secretly surprised. Just now, he had been activating the Trace of the Great Path. He saw that Zixi didn't do anything. She just released a strange energy. The energy permeated into the bodies of the three bugs. Then, the three bugs stopped moving.
"How magical!"
Lu Li had an idea and asked, "Zixi, can you control the three worms?"
"No!"
Zixi shook her head and said, "I can only suppress them. I can't control them. If I could control them, I would be able to sweep across the Celestial Region …"
"That's true!"
Lu Li nodded slightly. If Zixi could control all the Celestial Beasts, then he wouldn't be needed at all. She could bring a group of Celestial Beasts and go wherever she wanted. She could wipe out most forces.
"Let's go!"
Lu Li left with Zixi. They ran into Celestial Beasts again after traveling for thousands of miles. This time, they could avoid them easily.
Just like that, they traveled for five or six days without running into any danger. They did run into some warriors, but Zixi sensed them in advance and Lu Li took a detour.
"Something is wrong!"
On the eighth day, Lu Li realized something was wrong. There were more warriors here. In just half a day, he ran into five teams of warriors.
Each team had more than a dozen warriors and many of them were Saint Kings. Even though there were no powerful warriors that were infinitely close to the consummate realm, there must be something wrong with so many warriors all of a sudden.
In the next three days, Lu Li felt the problem was getting more and more serious. During these three days, he ran into at least thousands of warriors.
Those warriors wandered around, clearly searching for something.
"Could it be that the Soaring Beast has escaped here?"
Lu Li had this thought in his mind. If this was really the case, he didn't know if he should say it out loud.
He took such a long detour and went through so much trouble to get here. How did the Soaring Beast come here?
The further he went, the more likely Lu Li was to be right. He ran into more and more warriors. Battleships were flying back and forth in the sky. Countless psychic power was scanning around …
"Is the Soaring Beast small?
Is it good at hiding? "
Lu Li asked Zixi. He didn't have this information before because many warriors had never seen the Soaring Beast.
Zixi nodded and said, "Yes, the Soaring Beast has a strange ability. It can hide continuously and it is very powerful. The Soaring Beast is small as well, only the size of a fist …"
"The size of a fist?"
Lu Li touched his nose. How could such a powerful Immortal Beast be so small?
The more powerful one was, the bigger one would be.
He voiced out his doubts. Zixi thought about it and said, "I don't think so. I heard that the King of the Eastern Region is a super powerful Immortal Beast, comparable to a warrior at the consummate realm. The King of the Eastern Region is small as well, only the size of a head."
"Eh …"
Little White's body appeared in Lu Li's mind. It was the same for Little White. It never grew big. At its biggest, it was only the size of a fist. It was more likely that Little White was Lu Xiaobai.
"Let's go!"
Moving on, Lu Li was relieved to find that many psychic powers didn't linger on them even when they passed by.
There were too many warriors nearby. Nobody would pay attention to an average old man and a little girl.
They were here to find the Immortal Beast, not to make trouble. The Soaring Beast was injured. Whoever found it first would be rich.
The further they went, the more warriors there were. Lu Li disguised his realm to the initial stage of Saint King Realm and swaggered on with Zixi.
A powerful warrior at the initial stage of Saint King Realm brought his little granddaughter to train. It was a harmonious scene that would not attract attention.
There were too many warriors nearby. Nobody would pay attention. Everyone was in a hurry to find the Immortal Beast. Who would pay attention to Lu Li?
After four or five days, Lu Li met tens of thousands of warriors. The mountains and plains were filled with warriors.
He also found some powerful warriors who were infinitely close to the consummate realm. These powerful warriors were very secretive. They were secretly tailing some young masters and young ladies.
Lu Li also saw many young warriors of the major families and forces. There were many at the later stage of Saint King Realm.
In the Immortal Region, Saint Kings were not valuable. They were everywhere. There were also many powerful warriors infinitely close to the consummate realm. There must be many warriors at the consummate realm as well.
"Eh?
There seems to be a Wretched Land ahead? "
After another seven or eight days, Lu Li looked at the map and frowned. There was a Wretched Land ahead. It was not particularly dangerous, but it was a Wretched Land after all. Under normal circumstances, he should go around it.
"Never mind!"
Thinking of the warriors ahead, Lu Li made up his mind and walked on. With so many powerful warriors, they could even flatten a Wretched Land, let alone a Wretched Land.
