Patriarch Four and the others were at the Deer City. They were a bit far away, one region apart.
They had just bathed the Deer City in blood. They were now resting in a mountain near the Deer City.
Patriarch Four soon learned that six powerful warriors had died. All the powerful warriors had left behind their jade talismans of life and six of them had exploded.
"Boom!"
When Patriarch Four heard the news, he slapped at a boulder next to him in rage. The boulder was reduced to dust at once.
Patriarch Four had to suppress his anger. Otherwise, it would not be the boulder that was destroyed, but the entire mountain.
"What is Patriarch Eight doing?"
Patriarch Four was disappointed. He said in a cold voice, "Only six are dead. Lu Li must have split them up. What a fool. I have told them over and over again not to split up. Why did they split up?"
The expressions of the supreme powerhouses nearby were a little ugly, and even their gazes were a little erratic.
They were wondering if they could kill Lu Li.
Could they conquer this land?
Especially the powerful warriors of the Rhinoceros Race. This had nothing to do with them. They sent out 20 patriarchs and seven of them had died. If all of them died, it would be a great loss for the Rhinoceros Race.
If they could kill Lu Li, they would be willing to pay any price, even if only one of the 20 patriarchs could survive.
But they were doubtful. Could they kill Lu Li?
If they could not kill Lu Li and all of them died here, then their deaths would be pointless.
The powerful warriors gathered together to discuss. Patriarch Four did not have the final say. He asked the powerful warriors to express their opinions and brainstorm to see if they could come up with a good idea and whether they should advance or retreat.
The group of powerful warriors discussed for half a day but came to nothing. They had an insurmountable problem, and that was, they could not find Lu Li!
Also, they had nothing to threaten Lu Li. Lu Li was indifferent to the death of the average civilians. They could not find the powerful warriors of the Heaven Emperor Sect. Apart from killing some civilians, there was nothing they could do.
They had to wait and send out scouts to find out.
After waiting for half a month, the Eighth Elder and the others returned first.
They told Patriarch Four about the situation. Patriarch Four said nothing.
They repeatedly deliberated and found that in that situation, even if the Fourth Elder was present, he would still fall into the trap.
It was impossible to guard against!
The hearts of the Fourth Elder and the others were beating like a drum, but they immediately took action. They mobilized all of their troops and flew towards Fan City. There were many defeated soldiers there, and if they went there now, they might have a chance to rescue some of them.
He reckoned that some Saint Emperors and Emperor Realms had also escaped. If they went over now, they would be able to provide support.
At the same time, they also wanted to understand the specific situation so that they could discuss what to do next.
The army advanced majestically, covering the sky and covering the earth.
Because six supreme experts had died, the Fourth Elder and the Eighth Elder were incomparably furious. All the tribes and cities they encountered along the way were all razed to the ground, and their people were all slaughtered.
The flying speed of the army was slow, so it would take them at least a month to get here.
After flying for half a month, they had already encountered some defeated soldiers.
The routed soldiers recounted the situation of the battle and told the Fourth Elder and the others that there were still many routed soldiers and countless soldiers in the Endless Ruins of Gods chasing after them.
"Speed up and kill our way over!"
The Fourth Elder waved his hand and stopped massacring the nearby tribes. Instead, he flew towards Fan City as fast as he could.
They were not only going to rescue the routed soldiers of the three races, but more importantly, they were going to find the army of the Endless Ruins of Gods and kill them.
Of course, the Fourth Elder and the others were especially careful along the way to avoid falling into another trap.
They arranged a large number of scouts around them, especially at places with divine patterns. They directly bombarded them.
Regardless of what those divine patterns were for, they would destroy them first.
Along the way, the army encountered routed soldiers.
Five days later, they received news that there was a huge mountain range tens of thousands of miles ahead of them. A few thousand soldiers of the three races had escaped there, and nearly 10,000 soldiers of the Endless Ruins of Gods were chasing after them.
"Let's go!"
The Fourth Elder waved his hand, and the army advanced quickly. The Fourth Elder was even more cautious this time. He sent at least 100,000 scouts, and the search area was spread out over a radius of 100,000 miles.
If there were any signs of trouble, it would be reported immediately.
At the same time, all the experts gathered together. They definitely could not make the same mistake as last time.
Along the way, they received information that there was nothing out of the ordinary. There was indeed a battle going on in the mountain range.
Nearly 10,000 soldiers were fighting with the three races in the mountain range.
There was a natural maze in this mountain range, which was why all the armies of the three races had fled here to hide, relying on the maze to avoid being hunted down.
At first, not so many warriors came here. It was because they heard that many warriors of the three races were hiding here. Warriors from nearby cities and tribes swarmed over to join the encirclement.
Even though there were nearly 10,000 warriors here, many of them were weak. There were even warriors of the Fourth Tribulation.
Therefore, even though there were more warriors, the two sides were evenly matched.
The Endless Ruins of Gods had the upper hand because the morale of the three races had declined. They were all scared out of their wits by Lu Li.
The information was reported by the escaped warriors. It was truthful and there was nothing wrong.
There were not many powerful warriors in the mountain, only two Saint Kings and more than a dozen Great Emperor Realm warriors.
It was said that the warriors of the Endless Ruins of Gods who were close to the consummate realm had gone to the north. That was where the majority of the fleeing warriors were.
"Charge!"
After a while, Patriarch Four gave the order. They were not afraid even if there were ambushes in the mountain range. As long as their powerful warriors stayed together, Lu Li could not do anything to them. They had to wipe out the nearly 10,000 warriors first.
The army flew over and soon arrived at the mountain range.
The mountain range was famous. It was called the Mist Mountain. It was shrouded in mist all year round and psychic power would be limited. The mountain range was made of rocks, very hard ones. Average warriors could not break them.
There was a kind of iron tree growing in the rocks. The trees were hundreds of feet tall and had dense foliage. Because of the mist in the mountain range, it was hard to tell what was going on in there from the sky.
What were millions of warriors going to find out?
Patriarch Four waved his hand. The hundreds of thousands of warriors flew down and entered the area shrouded in mist. Soon, there came some sounds of explosions, miserable cries and angry roars.
The situation was clearly one-sided. The warriors of the Endless Ruins of Gods could not stand it. Once they encountered them, they would either be killed or run away in panic.
In less than an hour, many warriors flew out from the Mist Mountain and fled to the north in panic. Many Saint Kings asked Patriarch Four if they should go after them.
Patriarch Four thought about it and said, "We must go after them. But don't be in a hurry. Send some top level scouts to follow them and see where they are going.
What if we can find their secret stronghold nearby?
What if we can catch a big fish? "
