The Qi Family progenitor and the other two were taken aback!
The Feng Dynasty had 18 blessed lands, the Qi Dynasty had 16, and the Leng Dynasty had 20.
If all the blessed lands were destroyed, it would be devastating for the Central Imperial Universe.
How could a family develop and stand proudly at the nine universes?
First, powerful warriors, second, family members, and third, Mystical Materials.
Why fight for territory?
Why seek hegemony?
For Mystical Materials. If most of the blessed lands of the Central Imperial Universe were destroyed, then hegemony would be meaningless because there would be no constant supply of Mystical Materials.
Without Mystical Materials, the families would not be able to train powerful warriors quickly and produce more Human Sovereign Realm warriors, Earth Immortal Realm warriors and Semi-God Realm warriors.
When their generation died of old age, there would be a gap in the number of powerful warriors in the families.
There were many Mystical Materials in the ancestral land. But what about the long-term development after the Mystical Materials were used up?
Unless they could take the Wicked Bead and use it to conquer a universe.
Otherwise, in thousands of years, the major families would be reduced to small ones or be wiped out by other major families.
Could they take the Wicked Bead?
Nobody was sure. They had been attacking for a long time without any reaction from the Wicked Bead.
Lu Li said it would take at least four to five years to crack the bead open. Did they really have to do that?
What if something went wrong during that time?
What if Lu Li went back to the Zen Mountain after four to five years?
The Crippled Zen Master didn't care about Lu Li. The thing was … Yin Qingsi seemed to be close to Lu Li.
If Lu Li went back to the Zen Mountain and Yin Qingsi activated the formation of mist, then there would be nothing they could do. Did they have to attack the Zen Mountain?
The five warriors were in a dilemma. If they gave up, so many would have died in vain. What if they couldn't take the Wicked Bead if they kept on fighting?
The five Semi-God Realm warriors looked at each other, afraid to make a rash decision.
This decision could doom the Central Imperial Universe to eternal damnation.
Lu Li was cheered up seeing that the five Semi-God Realm warriors were hesitating.
He thought for a while and shouted, "I will give you the time for half an incense stick to burn to think about it. Either you fight to the death or I will destroy all the blessed lands of the Central Imperial Universe!"
They were even more hesitant. Time moved on. They began to talk among themselves but still could not make up their minds.
More importantly, they were afraid that Lu Li would go back to the Zen Mountain so they could not be sure that the Crippled Zen Master was dead.
Once Lu Li returned to the Zen Mountain, all their efforts would be in vain.
The time for half an incense stick to burn passed. Lu Li shouted, "Have you made up your mind?
Do you want to fight or make peace? Just tell me. The formation of illusion down there cannot withstand the impact of the Wicked Bead. I can destroy this blessed land easily. "
Feng Family progenitor and Qi Family progenitor looked at each other in pain. Feng Family progenitor made up his mind and yelled, "Lu Li, go ahead. When I break the Wicked Bead, I will make you wish you were dead.
I will definitely kill your entire clan one by one. If I can't do it, I will commit suicide as an apology to the world. "
In the end, the Feng Family Patriarch chose to fight to the death. This time, the Feng Dynasty had suffered great losses. Too many people had died.
If he gave up just like that, how could he explain it to his clansmen?
How could he face the people of the Feng Dynasty?
He chose to stake everything on this one throw. As long as he could get the Wicked Bead, he could conquer a universe.
For example, if they could conquer the Earth Imperial Universe or the Mage Imperial Universe, they would be able to make up for their losses. All the sacrifices would be worthwhile.
"Okay. You asked for it!"
Lu Li made up his mind. The Wicked Bead glowed and expanded to a radius of more than one thousand feet. Lu Li smashed down.
There was a blessed land in the mountain that could not be seen from the outside.
A strong formation of illusion was built here. Only Semi-God Realm warriors could see it.
There were defensive Inhibition Formations as well, but they could not withstand the force of the Wicked Bead.
"Boom!"
As expected, as the Wicked Bead smashed down, the mountain lit up with a semicircle shield.
The most powerful Inhibition Formations here were the formations of illusion. The shield was not strong because usually, nobody dared to destroy blessed lands. This was the territory of the Feng Family. Who dared to do so?
"Whoosh ~"
The Wicked Bead flew up to more than one hundred thousand feet. Then, it sped up to the top of its speed and smashed down.
The Wicked Bead was huge and fast. A random smash could be as powerful as an Earth Immortal Realm warrior's attack. The Inhibition Formations down there were shaking violently. It seemed that they could fall at any time.
The Feng Family progenitor and Brother Three of the Feng Family were in pain. The reasons for the formation of blessed lands were complicated. Only one would appear every tens of thousands of years.
Now, they had to watch as Lu Li destroyed the blessed land. It was not hard to imagine how miserable they were.
"Ah, ah, ah ~"
The Feng Family progenitor tried his best to strike at the Wicked Bead. He didn't dare to go down for fear that he might destroy the Inhibition Formations.
He threw out one golden fist after another. Every time, he could hit the Wicked Bead accurately. The space around him was torn apart.
The suffocating energy spread out, scaring away the beasts nearby.
"Boom, boom, boom ~"
Lu Li smashed at the shield again and again. The shield was shaking more and more violently.
Lu Li flew up again and again. The Qi Family progenitor sighed. The Inhibition Formations were about to fall. The next time Lu Li smashed at the shield, the blessed land would be destroyed.
The Feng Family progenitor stopped. He turned his face away, unable to bear the sight.
The blessed land was full of treasures. Lu Li's smash was going to ruin all of them.
That was one of the most precious gifts given to the Central Imperial Universe. However, it was being destroyed right in front of their eyes …
"Whoosh ~"
The Wicked Bead flew down from the sky like a shooting star and smashed at the shield.
The protective barrier couldn't hold on any longer. It shattered, and a beautiful paradise appeared below.
The Wicked Bead did not stop there. It whooshed downward. In the next second, the blessed land would be turned into ruins.
"Buzzing ~"
Right at that moment, the space above the blessed land trembled. It was as if a stone was thrown into a peaceful lake. Ripples spread out. Then, the space cracked open and a skinny hand came out.
That hand grew into a hand with a length of more than one thousand feet. The hand grabbed the hill-sized Wicked Bead in the center of the hand.
"What …"
The moment the space cracked open, the five Semi-God Realm warriors came back to their senses. They stared at the expanding hand and the Wicked Bead in its grasp. Their eyes were wide open.
The Wicked Bead was strange. No matter how they attacked, they could not move the Wicked Bead one bit.
Similarly, they tried to restrain the Wicked Bead but to no avail.
However, this hand grabbed the Wicked Bead easily and protected the blessed land!
That was not the most important thing. The most important thing was — this was not a shadow, but a real hand!
Many Semi-God Realm warriors could make a shadow of a hand. But who could make a hand more than one thousand feet in size?
This was unheard of.
Everyone stared at this withered hand as their souls trembled. This couldn't be God's Hand, right?
Lu Li was taken aback as well. The Wicked Bead could not move even one bit in the grasp of the hand.
Reaching out a hand from the sky was something Lu Li had seen in the Demon-slaying City.
However, that hand could not grow larger, nor could it grab the Wicked Bead that was flying at a high speed.
Was it really the Hand of God?
