The words were carved by Lu Li.
On the path to the heavens, Lu Li insisted on leaving some words or he would commit suicide.
Leng Wuxin didn't mind letting him out so that he could leave some words to reassure Lu Ling and the others.
Lu Li followed Leng Wuxin up the path. If it weren't for Leng Wuxin, he wouldn't have been able to go up.
Leng Wuxin took out a piece of artifact and created a shield to cover them up. Then … she walked up.
Stepping into the clouds, Lu Li found himself in another strange world. Above the Inferno, there was another level.
This was a world of trees. Towering trees of all shapes and sizes were everywhere. Many of the trees reached into the clouds. Their trunks were like hills. Lu Li couldn't tell how tall they were.
He had been to many places but it was the first time he had seen such tall trees.
What was strange was …
Apart from the boundless forest, there were no powerful Xuan Beasts. There were only some birds and small animals.
Most of them were herbivores. There weren't even any second-rank Xuan Beasts.
There were many fruits here. Lu Li was drooling. If he could pick all of them, how many Xuan Crystals could he get?
Leng Wuxin did see the fruits but she didn't show any interest. She didn't pick them, which confused Lu Li.
Lu Li didn't sit in another lotus. Instead, he and Leng Wuxin sat in one.
Leng Wuxin told Lu Li to clean himself in a river so that he wouldn't run away.
Lu Li changed into a clean robe. Leng Wuxin tied Lu Li's hands with a whip and brought him into a lotus.
The lotus was spacious. It could accommodate eight or 10 people, let alone two.
Leng Wuxin sat on the side with her legs crossed and told Lu Li to sit on the other side. She wasn't afraid that he would do anything.
The lotus was fast. It flew toward the east in a straight line. After 10 days, they arrived at another towering mountain.
This towering mountain was identical to the one in the Inferno. Both towering into the clouds with no end in sight. There was a winding path leading to the heavens.
Leng Wuxin didn't say a word to Lu Li during the 10 days. When they arrived, she put away the lotus and took out a yellowish bead. She created a shield to cover Lu Li and herself up.
The two of them easily walked up the Skypiercing Mountain and entered another strange world …
There was nothing in this world, only endless yellow sand. This was a world of sand.
Lu Li flew in this world for 10 days as well. During that time, there was nothing but sand. He didn't see any trees, Xuan Beasts or living beings. It was as if this was a land of death.
Ten days later, they arrived at another towering mountain. It had been a month. Lu Li was almost recovered.
He looked at the Skypiercing Mountain in front of him, and a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes. Could it be that there were countless layers here?
Was this a strange multi-layered world?
"Whoosh ~"
When they arrived at the foot of the Path of Babel, Leng Wuxin put away the whip in her hand and flew downward first.
Lu Li felt that he could use his Xuan Energy now. He thought about it and flew down as well. He asked in a low voice, "Lady Leng, you let me go. Aren't you afraid that I will act recklessly?"
For the first time in a long time, Leng Wuxin spoke. She threw Lu Li a casual glance and said, "Mess around?
You can kill me?
Or could he escape?
You are not strong enough to kill me. But if you want to run … you can have a try. I will let you go if you can make it to 100 miles with your life intact! "
"Eh?"
Lu Li was taken aback. Leng Wuxin was not joking. Apart from the yellow sand, he didn't sense any danger.
He paused, looked into the distance, and asked, "Really?"
Leng Wuxin smiled. She nodded and said, "I, Leng Wuxin, never lie. If you can make it to 100 miles, I will let you go."
"Okay!"
Lu Li released his Fate Wheel at once. The soft armor appeared over his body and the divine weapon of Dragon King appeared in his hand. He flew to the distance slowly.
After 100 feet, he looked at Leng Wuxin. Seeing that she didn't do anything, Lu Li flew on boldly.
Two hundred feet, one hundred and fifty feet, one thousand feet!
Everything was normal. There was no fluctuation of Inhibition Formations, nor was there any sign of living beings. Emboldened, Lu Li flew on.
"Bang!"
After Lu Li flew forward for another dozens of feet, the yellow sand in front of him suddenly exploded.
Following that, a huge beast crawled out from underground. It was a huge golden scorpion with a length of more than 1000 feet. It had a golden shell all over its body. A surge of horrifying qi and energy spread out from its body.
"Beast King!"
Lu Li's heart skipped a beat. Before he could react, the yellow sand in two areas to the front to his left exploded at the same time. Two huge beasts came out from the yellow sand.
"Beast Kings again …"
Lu Li was speechless. He didn't know that the Beast Kings were hiding underground.
But he was not afraid. His eyes glowed with silver light. Two silver dragons were hovering in his eyes. He was surrounded by some kind of qi and energy. There was a faint airflow around him. He was releasing dragon might.
Dragon might was not a Bloodline Skill. It was a skill that came naturally to him after he consumed that claw of a Beast God. With the dragon might, Lu Li could awe Beast Kings. Back in the Clouds Sea, he had awed several Beast Kings.
But what happened next shocked Lu Li …
The three Beast Kings showed no fear. Their eyes were cold and emotionless. Lu Li made up his mind to step back as soon as he saw the eyes of the three Beast Kings!
"Whoosh ~"
He was as fast as the Beast Kings. He was only 1000 feet away from the towering mountain. Soon, he flew back.
When he entered the Throughpath, the three Beast Kings immediately stopped in their tracks.
"Rustle, rustle, rustle ~"
The three Beast Kings went back to where they were and burrowed into the yellow sand. Soon, they vanished along with their qi and energy.
If it were not for the fact that there were three pits on the ground, Lu Li would have thought that he was hallucinating.
"So many Beast Kings?"
Lu Li murmured with lingering fear. Then, he frowned and asked Leng Wuxin, "They are not Beast Kings, are they?
The beasts in the Inferno don't look like Xuan Beasts. What are they? "
"They are Beasts of Primordial Chaos!"
Leng Wuxin explained casually, "They are beasts born in the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos. Different from Xuan Beasts, they are not intelligent.
Your might is strong but it is useless against the Beasts of Primordial Chaos. Hmm! "
Leng Wuxin laughed in the end as if she was mocking Lu Li in silence. Her eyes were full of mockery as well.
Noticing that Lu Li was upset, Leng Wuxin went on, "What?
Aren't you going to run?
Why don't you?
I am a woman of my word. I will let you go back as long as you can go more than 30 miles.
No … I will send you back in person. How about that? "
Lu Li rolled his eyes. 30 miles?
He couldn't even go that far.
No wonder Leng Wuxin didn't restrain him anymore. She wasn't afraid that he would run away.
"How come there are so many Beast Kings of Primordial Chaos in this damn place?" Lu Li mumbled.
"Hmm!"
Leng Wuxin smiled and said, "There are 10 levels in the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos. The Inferno is only the first level and this is the third.
You will know what horror is when you go beyond the sixth level.
Now that you have decided not to run, come with me. "
With that said, Leng Wuxin turned around and walked up, paying no more attention to Lu Li.
Lu Li made up his mind. He had to follow her. If he didn't go with her, would he stay and wait for death?
"Purgatory of Primordial Chaos?
What kind of place is this? "
Lu Li's mind was filled with questions. The Inferno was the first level?
The second level was filled with forests. Could it be the Prison of Wood? There was only sand here. Could it be the Prison of Earth?
Were there the Prison of Water and Prison of Gold above?
