The Invincible Dragon Emperor Chapter 1243

Chapter 1243 - Dead End

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Casualty increased at an alarming rate!

Two hours later, only five were still alive in the crowd that started with over sixty…

Lin Yu, the blue-haired young man, was lucky. Even though he was struck six times, he did not lose his life. Three other people were fortunate as well for they were able to hang on to their lives.

Though there were merely five people left, disciples from the three major sects did not intend on offering any help or mentioning that they would go and explore the way for a change. It was possible that the disciples of the three sects would not take over until all five of them were gone.

That was only natural though. If Lu Li were in the other group, he would have done the same thing. After all, one must protect his or her own life first. Nobody wanted to rush to their own death.

While Lu Li put on a sour face, he was not as nervous inside. It had been proven that Blood Fairy had found a solution to the Inhibition Formations in this level. At the very least, Lu Li would not step on the wrong slab. The worst-case scenario for him was suffering some flesh wounds.

With so many people gone and more to lose, gradually, Lu Li would become the only one left.

By then, all the attention would be on him. Bloodvine could sneak into the ground from his foot. That being said, there was no guarantee that nobody would notice.

As a matter of fact!

Lu Li already suspected that Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess already noticed something because the two would take a look at Lu Li’s left leg every now and then, and it just so happened that Bloodvine was there.

“Stop now!”

While Lu Li was having doubts, he suddenly heard Holy Princess’ voice. She stopped Lin Yu, who was about to step forward and said, “Lin Yu, and you, don’t go on this suicidal mission.”

Lin Yu was surprised, wondering why the Holy Princess said so. Had they developed a conscience? Were they going to explore the way so that others could stand a chance to live?

As Holy Princess looked at him, Lu Li forced a smile. As he had expected, Holy Princess pointed to Lu Li and said, “Let him lead the way. We will just follow him.”

“Swish, swish, swish~”

The others all turned to Lu Li. Ling Feidu threw Lu Li some looks of doubts and asked, “Holy Princess, does this punk have some skills? Can he flee from evil and strive to walk in fair fortune’s way?”

By not giving a definite answer, Holy Princess gave her silent agreement. Lou Shi’er put on a grin and looked at Lu Li without saying anything.

Ling Feidu stared at Lu Li for a moment. A glint of violence rose in his eyes as he said to Lu Li, “Why didn’t you tell us that you had figured out a way? Why have you sent so many people to their deaths? You are such an evil person. There is no excuse for your motive.”

“…”

Lu Li pressed his lips speechlessly. More people were throwing him cold glances. Even Lin Yu and the other three had become unkind. Lu Li could not help but refute, “Young Master Ling, this is not right. I don’t have any solutions. If I did, why would I almost be killed just now? Besides… let’s say I do, and I can trigger fewer Inhibition Formations, do I have to be the only one exploring the way? That is not fair. My life is not worth much but it is a life nonetheless.”

“Hmm!”

Ling Feidu only snorted. However, the coldness in his eyes was quite evident. A glint of killing intent rose. He meant ill for Lu Li.

“Alright, alright!”

Lou Shi’er tried to smooth things over. “Hey buddy, we have a long way to go. If you have such confidence, do explore the way. I owe you. Okay?”

Holy Princess added, “Please. According to historical records of previous explorations, there will be treasures after this level is completed. All the treasures will be yours, and we will not fight for them.”

Lin Yu and the other four thought for a while. They were less angry as they remembered Lu Li did almost lose his life several times.

Clasping his hands, Lin Yu said, “If you can do it, please help us find the way. I owe you my life.”

Lu Li said nothing. Then he took a deep breath.

Things had been exposed, and they were pressing him. Nothing Lu Li said could salvage the situation. Besides, when Lin Yu and the other four died, he still would have to explore by himself.

Bloodvine reached out from his foot. This time, many people were observing with psychic power. Soon, they noticed what was going on. Lu Li picked a slab and stepped on it. Instantly afterward, he moved to another slab.

“Buzzing~”

The other’s eyes kindled with hope. Lin Yu and the other three were relieved. With Lu Li leading the way, as long as he remained alive, they could all stay alive.

Disciples of the three major sects were happy as well because they would have to do this themselves when Lu Li and the other four passed away. They could not have Ling Feidu, Lou Shi’er, and Holy Princess explore the way. If they did, more disciples would be punished with death.

“What is that red shadow? So special!”

“Is it an enchanted soul?”

“How is he doing it? How can he determine which slab will not trigger Inhibition Formations?”

Lu Li could hear people discussing behind him and feel them staring at him. He could tell that there was envy growing in some people’s eyes. They were longing for the Bloodvine.

Someone even was checking the Wicked Bead with psychic power, which bothered Lu Li very much…

Fortunately, on the surface, the Wicked Bead did not seem to be special. They could not tell that it was a supreme Relic just by checking with psychic power either. Otherwise, more people would be even jealous of Lu Li.

“Shi*t, do not push me too far. If you do, I don’t care if you are a Young Master from the Cabinet of Cloud. I will kill you!”

Lu Li turned around by chance and happened to see the strong killing intent buried in the depth of Ling Feidu’s eyes. Lu Li’s heart grew cold.

The 72 major sects were strong, and the regular prefectures could not mess with them. So what? Was Lu Li supposed to do nothing should Ling Feidu try to kill him and take away his valuables?

Ling Feidu was ranked top three hundred thousand in the Divinity.

But Lu Li was not afraid. He believed that if he used all the Blood Crystal to turn on the Warlord Qing Wujin, that skeleton could possibly finish Ling Feidu.

Of course, that would be the worst-case scenario!

The only thing waiting for Lu Li was death if he murdered Ling Feidu. After all, the Cabinet of Cloud had a team of dozens here while Lu Li only have five pieces of Blood Crystals. If they ran out, the warlord skeleton would not function, and Lu Li would have to wait for his doom…

“Boom~”

Lu Li hurried on. Along the way, every now and then, he would be struck by Inhibition Formations but just minor strikes, and he would only suffer some flesh wounds. Holy Princess would come to his rescue. With her here, it was guaranteed that he would not die.

The others just followed Lu Li. Therefore… whenever Lu Li was struck, others would be, too. Holy Princess would save all of them each time.

An hour later, Lu Li was still breathing and so were the others. Finally, a gate appeared ahead of them. They were about to reach the end.

“Wait a minute…”

A few hundred feet later, when Lu Li was about to step into that portal, Blood Fairy said all of a sudden, “Master, something is wrong. I can sense there are horrifying Inhibition Formations embedded in all the six slabs around the portal. You will be blasted to death if you barge in!”

“How is this possible?”

Lu Li was confused. There were exactly six slabs outside the portal. If each slab was embedded with a lethal Inhibition Formation, then nobody would be able to go across, would they?

Then through the course of history, how did the others successfully pass the Path of Life and Death?

Status: Ongoing Type: Author: , Released: 2016 Native Language: Chinese
On the Great Land of China, forces clashed for the sake of supremacy and Bloodline Warriors ran amok; the conflict of the strong threatened to shatter heaven and earth. A young man named Lu Li—nothing more than a humble Coffin Carrier from the Northern Desert—came along with Lu Ling, his sister. The two were regarded as puny insects and bullied, but little did people know that Lu Li had the strongest Bloodline of them all in him. He mounted the most handsome of horses and drank the strongest of wines; He bedded the most beautiful of ladies and murdered the most hated of people; He told a huge lie and carried with him an ill-reputation undeserved; He traveled all by his lonesome and danced with devils; He had given his word that he would come back, that he would be strong. And it was because of this that she was still waiting in the city—alone.
