It was said that in order for the Dragon Demon to become an immortal, it must eat four hundred and ninety thousand young boys and girls. The Dragon Demon had only eaten one hundred thousand.
Therefore, Lu Li still had time. Of course, time was running out. Based on the current progress, in three months at most, the four hundred and ninety thousand young boys and girls would be collected.
The Asmodian Lord had given the order that the five forces must provide one hundred thousand young boys and girls in three months. The other forces were dragging their feet. The Jiang Hu Prefecture, for example, had only sent forty thousand.
That being said, nobody dared to disobey the Asmodian Lord's order. All the young boys and girls would be delivered in three months.
By then, the Dragon Demon would be at its prime. It would be able to kill anything that stood in its way.
Three months was the most conservative time.
Lu Li thought for an hour and decided to take two steps at the same time.
First, he would cultivate here. Second, he would ask Chuan Pu to trick Lu Li's father over and take control of the Jiang Hu Prefecture indirectly.
Then, he would ask Chuan Pu's father to trick the leaders of the nearby forces over and take control of the Jiang Hu Prefecture.
By taking control of two or three leaders, Lu Li could control them not to provide young boys and girls. In that case, the Dragon Demon would not have so much food.
Another advantage was that Lu Li could control those forces to "rebel" and lure the Asmodian Lord over.
When he finished the first diagram, he could sneak into the Forbidden Land of God and kill the Dragon Demon.
When the Dragon Demon was dead, the Asmodian Lord would not be able to do anything no matter how furious he was. Lu Li was not afraid of the Asmodian Lord. He could come and go as he pleased.
Lu Li did not take action right away after he made up his mind. Instead, he asked Chuan Pu to collect information, detailed information about the Eastern Land of Oceans.
At the same time, he asked the 10 patriarchs and Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves to monitor the surroundings. Apart from Chuan Pu, nobody was allowed to go out. They had to monitor all the movements of the armies in case information was leaked.
The Eastern Land of Oceans was filled with danger. Lu Li might not be able to survive, but the patriarchs and Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves could lose their lives. Therefore, Lu Li had to be extra careful.
The patriarchs and Ninth Uncle of Jun understood the importance of this matter. None of them dared to act rashly.
They were stationed in different places to monitor the situation. Warriors and servants were all under their watch.
Lu Li entered the Wicked Bead to cultivate. Jiang Qiling and Bai Qiuxue were in the Wicked Bead as well. Jiang Qiling wanted to go and have a look when she heard that they had reached the Eastern Land of Oceans.
Lu Li did not ask her to go out. The outside world was similar to the Great Land. There was nothing to see.
After 10 days of closed-door cultivation, Lu Li had learned another small diagram. Now, there was only one left.
Chuan Pu came back and gathered some information. The forces did not hand over all the young boys and girls at once. Their leaders were afraid that the Asmodian Lord could not control the Dragon Demon, which would lead to a catastrophe at the Eastern Land of Oceans.
Lu Li acted decisively and asked Chuan Pu to find a way to trick his father over.
Chuan Pu was struggling. That being said, he was a soul slave of the Jiang Family. What was more, Lu Li had offered him a piece of cake. If he conquered the Eastern Land of Oceans, he could be the next Asmodian Lord. Chuan Pu was convinced.
Lu Li did not go back to the Wicked Bead to cultivate. He sent all the patriarchs and Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves into the Wicked Bead. Lu Li used Shrink Skill to shrink his body and hid among the warriors, waiting for Chuan Pu's father, Chuan Jing's arrival.
Jianghu City was nearby. Only six hours later, the teleportation array here lit up, and then four or five figures appeared outside the castle. A short man who looked like Chuan Pu, with fierce eyes and a thick beard, led a few people out.
"Chuan Pu, what is going on?"
Chuan Jing came over and used psychic power to check the surroundings. He was alarmed. Chuan Pu sent a message saying that valuable treasures were found here, so Chuan Jing hurried over.
Chuan Pu was sitting in the castle. Instead of being happy, Chuan Jing seemed to be worried. Naturally, Chuan Jing became suspicious.
"Something is not right —"
Chuan Jing suddenly turned to Lu Li who was outside the castle. Chuan Jing noticed something was wrong. Even though Lu Li was disguised as an Asmodian, he had a strong human energy.
"Humans, charge!"
Chuan Jing bellowed. Then, he was about to dash into the crack in space.
Lu Li grinned and said, "Chuan Jing, I have been waiting for you. It is too late to run now!"
"Bang ~"
Lu Li took out his Bead of Life. With him as the center, the space with a radius of thirty miles trembled. A cyan-colored, half-transparent castle came out, covering up an area with a radius of thirty miles.
"Ah —"
Everyone was enveloped by the Feather Wind castle. Everyone, including Chuan Jing, hugged their heads and howled in pain.
The Feather Wind castle was filled with Feather Wind and soul attacks were horrifying. Even the Asmodian Lord would suffer, let alone Chuan Jing.
Soon, all the warriors passed out. The Human Sovereign Realm warrior lasted for the time for 10 breaths. After the time for 20 breaths, Chuan Jing passed out. Not a single person in the castle was conscious.
"Done!"
Lu Li deactivated the Feather Wind castle and began to seize souls. He was familiar with this.
In less than an hour, Chuan Jing had become Lu Li's soul slave.
It was true that taking too many soul slaves would affect Lu Li's soul, but there was no other way.
He could just kill them after he was used up. Last time, the Feather Race Earth Immortal Realm warrior he took in at the Demon-slaying City was killed by Lu Li. Having too many soul slaves would affect one's cultivation.
Gradually, more and more people woke up. Lu Li changed back to his original appearance. He took off the Asmodian armor and sat in the castle.
"Master ~"
Chuan Jing walked in with a bitter face. His life was no longer his own now that he had become Lu Li's soul slave.
From now on, he would have to listen to Lu Li's orders. He had been tricked by his own son.
"Well, find a way to lure the masters of nearby forces here. Before you do that, tell Chuan Pu to tell me.
Also … do not send young boys and girls to the Asmodian Lord. Now, you are dismissed. "
Lu Li waved Chuan Jing away and told Chuan Pu to stay here. At the same time, he sent out the 10 patriarchs and Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves to monitor the surroundings.
This time, in merely seven days, the Wicked Bead began to tremble. Lu Li checked with psychic power. Uncle Nine of the Jun Family reported, "Young Master, Chuan Jing has sent a message. He is here with a leader of a force."
"Okay!"
Lu Li was delighted. He did what he did before. This time, he did not disguise himself as an Asmodian. He stood behind Chuan Pu and waited outside the Teleportation Formation.
He gathered the elders and the soldiers a hundred miles away so that they wouldn't all faint again.
"Buzzing ~"
An hour later, the Teleportation Formation glowed. Chuan Jing came with a group of people. There were two Earth Immortal Realm warriors with him.
"Boom ~"
The Feather Wind castle took shape in an instant. Now that everyone was under control, the rest would be easier.
There were two Earth Immortal Realm warriors from another force. Lu Li killed one and took the other one as a soul slave.
"It's about time. Time is running out ~"
Lu Li felt it was time to set off for the altar after he took down the leader of the other force.
