The Invincible Dragon Emperor Chapter 56

Lu Li stopped for a moment and then climbed over. He raised his head and looked at the Golden Chariot through and through.

Last time when he saw these, the Golden Chariots were too fast and too high. All Lu Li could make out were some golden human-shaped shadows. This time, he got to look at them clearly. After a few glances, Lu Li became somewhat fascinated.

The reason was that there was a beautiful young girl aboard the Golden Chariot. Four powerful warriors in golden armor cl.u.s.tered around her like a myriad of stars surrounding the moon.

The 16-year-old girl was in an emerald green soft armor, holding a jade flute in her hand. Her black hair was like a waterfall, and her face, a moon. She had a gracefully slender figure and an elegant manner. Lu Li looked up to her as if the young girl was a fairy from the heavens and now she had come down to earth, surrounded by a group of G.o.ds.

It was not like Lu Li had never seen anyone pretty before. Lu Ling's beauty could overthrow states and cities, therefore, Lu Li had quite a high bar of tolerance when it came to beauties.

Lady Yi was quite nice, but Lu Li was not amazed by her. Yet as of this moment, Lu Li felt he was fascinated head over heels by this one. The young girl up there was not less beautiful than Lu Ling, and she had this more elegant and unique air.

"Um? Bloodline Mark, a purple one. That's Bloodline of the Seventh Rank!"

Lu Li was attracted by a purple mark on the young girl's neck. That was a little purple flower, very pretty. Purple Bloodline Mark represented Bloodline of the Seventh Rank. As long as she did not come to a premature end, she would definitely become a powerful warrior that could ascend to the top of the Northern Desert.

But there was something Lu Li found strange. The powerful warriors that were in the golden armor had no Bloodline mark on their necks. Maybe they used some special techniques to hide the marks or they were not Bloodline Warriors.

"Hum!"

One of the golden-armored warriors snorted out loud. It was so loud that Lu Li felt like it was a thunderbolt from the clear sky. He quit looking immediately and said while making a bow, "Greetings, Lords. I am the Guest Warrior of the Liu Family of the Wu Ling County, Lu Li. This is my ID Token."

"The Liu Family?"

The golden-armored powerful warrior threw a cold glance over it and asked in doubt with a frown, "The warriors of the Liu Family should be stationed at the Peace Mountain over at the east. What are you doing here?"

Lu Li dared not to lie. "I am going to the Red Stone Mountain for my quest. I am not sent here to station at the Frigid Cloud Mountain by the family."

"Red Stone Mountain?"

The fairy-like young girl opened her mouth. Her voice was like the oriole singing. She asked with confusion, "Why don't you take the route via the Frigid Cloud Mountain? Why are you choosing the more difficult and further way here?"

Lu Li put on a force smile and replied with a bow with hands folded in front, "Milady, that is because the families of the Wu Ling County are not particularly in harmony. I am here by myself, so I can easily be a.s.sa.s.sinated by an enemy family. So…"

"Oh!"

The young girl nodded. She didn't look like that she was in the mood to hear any stories of the Wu Ling County. The young girl waved her hand, and the Golden Chariot flew away with a glow. The young girl warned Lu Li after they were some distance away, "There are many powerful Xuan Beasts around here. You'd better be careful."

"Whoosh~"

The Golden Chariot flew away like a streak of golden light. Lu Li could breathe a little bit easier now. He had some warm feelings towards the pretty girl.

Even though this kind of people were proud to their bones and despised humble warriors like Lu Li, at least she had a kind heart and she warned him before they left.

"Which Realm is this young girl at? Which family does she belong to?"

The young girl did not show her qi or energy. But those of the warriors at her side were so strong. They must be top-level powerful warriors. Since the young lady could go out with them, she must not be at a low level realm.

"Come on."

Lu Li shook his head to force him out of these thoughts. This privileged girl was in a different world from his. The two of them were unlikely to cross path in the future.

Lu Li carried on. He moved slower now and paid more attention to taking covers. The lady just said that there were many powerful Xuan Beasts around here. Encountering them would mean big trouble.

The Red Stone Mountain was more than 60 miles away from the Frigid Cloud Valley. If the trail was convenient for walking, it would take him just more than half a day's time. Clearly, based on the current situation, Lu Li needed at least one or two days before he could make it to the Red Stone Mountain.

"Crrr~"

Lu Li went on for about half a day when he heard some loud roaring from the front-left. He hurried to hide in a ravine and only walked out and continued his journey to the front right after he was certain of the safety.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Soon, some noise of blast came. Lu Li quietly took a look and saw a warrior in golden armor was fighting a Xuan Beast as high as a mountain.

"It seems that the young lady has brought those powerful warriors with her to clear up the powerful Xuan Beasts."

Now, Lu Li was a bit relieved. Now that there were powerful warriors inspecting around, even powerful Xuan Beasts could not wreak havoc everywhere. As long as he was careful, he should be alright.

Lu Li didn't dare to look anymore and continued his journey. After several hours, there came more beasts roaring from the northwest.

"Now, find a place to spend the night!"

It would be more dangerous at night. Lu Li dared not to go on further. There were too many Xuan Beasts nearby, so he had to find a place safe enough for him to spend the night.

After walking about for an hour, he finally found a deep and narrow cave. There was some stink odor coming out but no Xuan Beast inside. It should be a Xuan Beast's cave before.

After finding a boulder to block the cave, Lu Li asked Little White to guard the entrance. Lu Li himself sat down with his legs crossed in the cave to rest and cultivate. He worked on opening up his energy channels and acc.u.mulating Xuan Energy.

Lu Li cultivated to the midnight without hearing any abnormal sound outside. So, he soundly fell into sleep.

He woke up before dawn. Instead of leaving, he cultivated for another two hours. Lu Li only rushed towards the Red Stone Mountain again after it was really bright.

After yesterday's journey, Lu Li had covered more than 30 miles. The Red Stone Mountain was not far away now. Today, it all went well. Lu Li encountered neither people nor Xuan Beasts. Finally, by the afternoon, he saw a gigantic red peak in the distance.

"There are so many Red Phosphorus Hawks here as I expected!"

From afar, Lu Li saw there would be Red Phosphorus Hawks howling and hovering over the Red Stone Mountain every now and then. One egg of the Red Phosphorus Hawks would be worth 500 contribution points. As long as he could get four or five, it would be enough to trade for many abandoned Xuan Artifacts as Little White's food.

Lu Li did not go up the Ren Stone Mountain after he located it. Rather, he walked around at the foot of the mountain. What if there were powerful Xuan Beasts or warriors here?

After observing from the distance for more than two hours, Lu Li felt rea.s.sured. He just saw Stone Rats and Red Phosphorus Hawks on the mountain. Since there were already two kinds of Xuan Beasts here, there shouldn't be any other Xuan Beasts.

There being so many Xuan Beasts also showed that there couldn't be warriors around. They would definitely be spotted by the Xuan Beasts.

It was already near sunset so Lu Li didn't have the courage to go into the mountains now. Nights didn't have too much influence on Xuan Beasts, but warriors' strength would be greatly diminished. He had to find a place to spend the night and tend to the matter in the morning.

The night was calm. Lu Li spent all of it cultivating, and he managed to open up a bit of the last energy channel. If everything went on as he hoped, he could open it up completely in two or three days of cultivation. Then he could condense the Spirit Sea.

"Go up now!"

Lu Li watched for a bit nearby and then made up his mind. He quietly sneaked his way up the Red Stone Mountain.

The path he chose was much concealed. All along the way, he had chosen paths that were covered up with gra.s.s. His footsteps were soft so as not to be spotted by the Xuan Beasts.

However, he was too naïve. Only 3000 feet onward, Lu Li heard a Stone Rat screaming suddenly in a cave in the distance. Then numerous Stone Rats swarmed out of the caves from all directions.

"Chirp, chirp~"

The Red Phosphorus Hawks were also disturbed. A cl.u.s.ter of hawks flew out and rushed towards Lu Li. There was at least nearly a hundred of them, and several hundreds of the Stone Rats from all sides.

"Little White, show time!"

If Lu Li were by himself, he couldn't move even an inch. These were the first group of Xuan Beasts that came out. Once the fight began, many more of them would follow. Lu Li would definitely be tortured to death depending on his strength. He had to call Little White out.

"Squeak, squeak!"

Little White jumped onto Lu Li's shoulder and it looked at the Stone Rats and the Red Phosphorus Hawks swarming their way here like an emperor of the Beasts. Some unexplainable qi and energy came from Little White. The Stone Rats and the Red Phosphorus Hawks were terrified and wouldn't get closer anymore.

"Nice!"

Lu Li's eyes lit up. As long as Little White did its thing, everything would be so easy. The eggs of the Red Phosphorus Hawks were just at Lu Li's fingertips.
