Lu Li's battleship was slower than Jin Yan's. With the distance between them, it would be difficult for Jin Yan to catch up. Lu Li estimated that it would take Jin Yan's battleship at least a month to catch up with him.
He had already been flying for a month. In another month or so, he estimated that he would reach the periphery of the Sky Universe Star Field.
Lu Li sorted out his thoughts. He had three options. The first one was to fly for more than half a month and find a place to enter the Magic Realm directly.
Old Demon Jin and the others would probably spend a month or two searching in the vicinity before returning to the Heavenly Chaotic Starfield to kill. By that time, Lord Yun and the others would have arrived.
This was the safest method. The second method was to absorb the energy in his body into the Dharma World. At that time, Jin Yan and the others would not be able to track him. He could then leave and find a place to hide.
This path was relatively more dangerous. If Jin Yan was able to track him, he might be shaken to death.
There was also a third option — to lure the ten Great Perfection deities to the Ice River Valley, and then lure them into the Ice Harem. Then, they could borrow the cold energy of the Ice Harem to freeze these ten Great Perfection deities. This way, they could solve the problem once and for all, and get rid of all future troubles.
Even if Lord Yun and the others were to come down, they might not be able to kill these ten Great Perfection Realm experts.
He had reported four Great Perfection deities. What if Lord Yun only brought three or four Great Perfection deities with him? How could they fight against ten Great Perfection deities?
Once Lord Yun and the others were defeated, the God of Death would suffer the revenge of Jin Yan and the others, and the people of the God of Death would be wiped out.
Since there was still time, Lu Li pondered as he steered the battleship forward.
He was leaning towards the third option, but the problem was that he only reached the outskirts of the Sky Universe Star Region after more than a month.
He was still at least a month away from the Ice River Valley. How was he going to avoid the pursuit of ten Great Perfection deities in this one month?
If he absorbed the energy in his body, he wouldn't be able to lure these ten Great Perfection deities to the Ice River Valley.
If he didn't absorb it, he would be killed by the Great Perfection deity.
The battleship moved forward at the top of its speed. It had been half a month and Lu Li still couldn't come up with a good solution.
Full circle cultivation was different from other martial artists. They were way too strong. Once a full circle cultivation got close to him, it would be hard for him to escape.
If he died, then everything would be over. The Lu Clan would definitely not have a good life, and they might even be wiped out. He had to be careful.
"Should I try to absorb the energy and then release it?"
Several days later, Lu Li came up with an idea.
If he could absorb the energy and release it later, he would be able to easily lure those ten Great Perfection deities to the Ice River Valley.
He didn't dare to test it out now. He decided to wait until he was almost at the edge of the Tianyu Star Region.
A few more days passed, and they finally arrived at the Sky Universe Starfield.
Today, Lu Li took action. He mobilized the Dharma Realm and absorbed the strange energy lurking in his flesh and blood. In an instant, all the energy was absorbed.
Almost at the same time, in a hidden battleship three days behind Lu Li, Bi Ling opened his eyes. He said in surprise, "The mark on Lu Li is gone. The energy I sent into him … is gone!"
"He refined it?"
An ominous glint flashed in Jin Yan's eyes. They had chased for so long and were about to catch up. But now, Wu Ling suddenly said that he had lost track of the target. How could Jin Yan not be angry?
Even Du Ling couldn't figure out what was going on. In all of history, there had never been a martial artist below the Paragon realm who could refine this energy. This energy would fuse with a martial artist's fleshly body. Unless a new fleshly body was condensed, this energy would never disappear.
Gang Yue and Tong Xun asked as well. But Wu Ling didn't know what was going on either. What could he say?
How could he explain?
He couldn't stop now that he had come this far.
The battleship moved on. Half a day later, Wu Ling suddenly said in surprise, "Well, the energy is back. I can feel it again!"
"What is it?"
Jin Yan stared at Wu Ling coldly and said, "You are not messing with us, are you?
It's gone for a while?
Or are you wrong?
If the energy is gone, then it must have been refined. How can it appear again? "
Wu Ling was the Family Patriarch of the Duan Race, once the overlord of the Chaotic Star Region. In the old days, he would have lost his temper. But after going to the Immortal Region for a while, his temper had melted away. He curled his lips and said, "Of course I am not messing with you. I don't know why this is happening.
Well … the energy is gone again! "
Jin Yan and the others were speechless. In the next hour, the energy would appear and disappear for a dozen times. Wu Ling didn't report to them anymore. After a while, Jin Yan said, "Let's go faster. Either way, we have to catch up with them."
The battleship trembled. It sped up by twenty percent and flew toward the Region of Universe.
Lu Li was still flying the battleship forward. He was nervous because he didn't know if he could shake off the pursuers.
"Set up a formation!"
Lu Li thought about it and went to a deserted world nearby. It just so happened that there were some damaged divine patterns. Lu Li told Blood Fairy to add some simple ones, the simpler, the better.
As long as the divine patterns were touched, Blood Fairy would be able to sense it. The more complicated the divine patterns were, the more careful the perfect ones would be.
It was easy to set up these minor divine patterns. Soon, Blood Fairy finished three. One of them turned into a faint mist that covered an area with a radius of thirty miles.
There was also a Divine Pattern beneath his feet that was covered in black fog. This black fog had a faint poison to it, and most martial artists would be able to withstand it. Therefore, Great Perfection stage cultivators probably wouldn't care about it.
Once they touched the divine patterns, Blood Fairy would be able to sense it.
With that done, Lu Li's hand glowed. He squeezed out two drops of the same energy that Wu Ling put into his body.
The two drops of energy fell into the ground and dispersed. Lu Li didn't care anymore. He took the battleship and flew toward the Region of Universe at once.
Half a day later, Lu Li steered the battleship to the right. Another half a day later, he found another deserted universe and did the same thing. He asked Blood Fairy to build something again. This time, Lu Li flew toward the Region of Universe.
"Master!"
Seven days later, Blood Fairy said, "The divine patterns behind us are activated, and it is not just one warrior."
"Okay!"
Lu Li was excited. Usually, warriors would not go to deserted worlds. There was nothing in the deserted worlds and psychic power could be used to check. Was it necessary to go in?
Only the perfect warriors who wanted to know the two drops of energy Lu Li put into the ground would go in person.
Lu Li flew on. His mind was tense. He was waiting for the ten perfect warriors to go to the second place.
If they went, it would be able to prove many of his deductions.
Half a day later!
Blood Fairy sent another message to make sure that the second spot was touched. Lu Li felt relieved when he received the message.
Many of his speculations were correct. He was confident that he could lure the ten perfect warriors to the Ice River Valley.
