The Invincible Dragon Emperor Chapter 716

Chapter 716 - Marks of Nature’s Rhythms

Translator: Panda_Penn  Editor: Chrissy

They rested for half a day before setting off. This time, they walked for an entire day before finally arriving at their destination.

Their destination was an island in a stream, a stream that intersected with the Heng River.

“Brother Lu!”

Pointing to the island, Leng Wushang said, “This island has a secret area inside. We don’t know if it is naturally formed or man-made, but the Xuan Qi in the island is tens of thousands of times richer than the outside. Many marks of Profound Meanings and nature’s rhythms can be found in the island. It is the best place for cultivation.”

The island was covered by lush vegetation. Instead of pure maple trees, all sorts of woods and trees can be spotted here. There were some fruit trees and flowers in the distance.

Lu Li looked at the spacious river and asked, “Are we taking a boat?”

“No!”

Leng Wushang shook his head and answered with a smile, “You cannot reach the island neither by flying nor by boat. That is why so few can get to the island. The strange creatures in the river can destroy all boats, regardless of the material, in an instant.”

“Then how do we go across?”

Lu Li was curious. Leng Wushang grinned mysteriously. He turned to Leng Wushuang without explaining to Lu Li and said, “Uncle Wushuang, show time!”

Leng Wushuang nodded. He walked to the riverside and began to wave his hands. With his action, Xuan Qi gathered around him. Lu Li studied closely. It was a rare chance for him to witness an Earth Immortal Realm warrior using Profound Meaning.

Leng Wushuang was an average-looking man, but as soon as he employed his Profound Meaning, his imposing qi and energy began to spread out, creating a suffocating atmosphere. It was as if he was not a person anymore, but a huge mountain towering above the masses.

“Splash~”

A miraculous thing happened. The river that had a width of at least one mile tumbled. Tides roamed on, and the waters began to surge upstream.

The river began to run backward…

“Brother Lu, let’s go!”

Leng Wushang waved his hand. He took the lead and run to the riverbed with Leng Wuxin and the rest following him. Lu Li sped up to catch up with them as well.

“Whoosh~”

They went across the mile soon. Leng Tianba and Leng Wushuang came across, too. The river was still running backward. Stormy waves surged upstream with terrifying strength.

Only after every one was on the island did Leng Wushuang release Xuan Energy again. Xuan Qi above the river disappeared. The roaring waters flashed down, and the river returned back to normal.

“Eh?”

As soon as he stepped into the island, Lu Li had discovered the air seemed to be more refreshing. He closed his eyes to concentrate and began to absorb Xuan Qi. To his surprise, he found Xuan Energy was springing out from his Spiritual Sea.

“This is a wonderful place!”

Lu Li opened his eyes, marveled at the island. The Xuan Qi in the air and earth was more than tens of thousands of times richer than in the island, and hundreds of thousands times richer than in the Central Plains. This could be one of the best places for cultivation.

“Good heavens…”

Lu Li thought to himself. If some kids were left here to cultivate, it would take them less than half a month to cultivate from the Xuan Wu Realm to the peak of the Soul Pond Realm. It couldn’t be easier to train youngsters at such a place with such rich Xuan Qi.

“No wonder Leng Wushang, Leng Wuxin, and all the others can be Human Sovereign Realm warriors at such a young age…”

The Central Imperial Universe had more Human Sovereign Realm warriors than Lu Li could imagine because the universe contained many precious lands and endless treasures. Generations after generations, warriors’ constitutions were improved, and the number of talents was naturally on the rise. It was not unusual for a teenager to reach the Human Sovereign Realm.

“Brother Lu!”

Leng Wushang said, “Let’s go and set up our tents. It is safe on the island. You can go around as you like as long as you don’t go into the stream. There are many marks of Profound Meanings and nature’s rhythms in various spots. But it will be up to your luck to see if you can learn something. Also… don’t eat the fruits on the island. They can be dangerous.”

They walked into the island and found an open land to encamp. Each had a tent. Leng Wushuang took out many dried food, water, and wine for all to enjoy.

“Brother Lu, let’s have something to eat. Later on, we will split up to try our own chances. Seize the opportunity.”

Leng Wushang handed Lu Li a piece of dried meat and a goblet of wine, then winked at Leng Wuxin. He was telling Lu Li to grab the chance to pursue Leng Wuxin.

Lu Li grinned and returned a knowing look. He picked up the goblet and enjoyed the wine. They were sitting inside a wood with dense grasses at their feet. The breeze was gentle, and leaves rustled to the wind. Flowers were giving out a pleasant scent. In the distance, Leng Wuxin and Leng Wumi were busy tidying up their own tents. It could make a comfortable place to cultivate.

Rustle, rustle, rustle~

There came another gentle breeze, but something was different this time. A shrill was heard from the distance. It was the Feather Wind coming from afar.

Leng Wuxin and Leng Wumi put down their work at hand and sat with their legs crossed on the spot. This was what made the Forbidden Ground of Elder God unpleasant. Nobody could tell when the Feather Wind would appear. Once it did, all must stop cultivation, and sometimes, they would be interrupted when they were on the verge of a breakthrough.

Lu Li seemed to be enjoying himself. The Feather Wind was ineffective to him. The worst was some tingling in his ears. He had strong abilities to withstand pain, so he had no pressure when the Feather Wind was upon him.

He sipped the wine in comfort and glanced at Leng Wuxin and Leng Wushang from time to time, thinking to himself how he should proceed with the mission.

To kill Leng Wushang would be difficult, and to capture Leng Wuxin would be even more so. It was virtually impossible, given his abilities. Leng Wushang was right in front of him, and Lu Li might be able to kill Leng Wushang with Soul Shattering skill. But what if Lu Li couldn’t? Quasi Relics were far from average after all.

Where could he run after killing Leng Wushang? The two Earth Immortal Realm warriors were nearby. He could run while the Feather Wind hit them, but how far could he go?

“Never mind. I should cultivate now. I have a year. I can figure something out sooner or later.”

Lu Li squinted. He gazed into the leaves that were dancing to the wind. Feather wind was coming. It blew through the leaves into the distance like many transparent feathers.

“Eh?”

Something sprang to Lu Li’s minds as he looked at the dancing leaves and waving twigs. A pebble was thrown into a peaceful lake, and ripples appeared. Just like that, Lu Li felt enlightened.

It was as if…

The leaves were not just moving around. There was a strange rhythm to the leaves’ movements. Lu Li somehow felt a miraculous thing was contained in the movements, but he could not put a pin on it.

“Nature’s rhythms!”

Lu Li was excited. This was really a treasured land. He could sense marks of Profound Meaning and nature’s rhythms so easily. A chance of inspiration was hard to encounter. He would usually find himself inspired before he could learn a Profound Meaning.

It was a Profound Meaning, an embodiment of laws in heaven and earth, nonetheless whichever level the Profound Meaning could be. There could never be enough Profound Meanings. Low-level Profound Meanings could be fused together and evolve.

Lu Li cleared his mind right away and focused on observing the leaves. When the Feather Wind blew over and the movement in the leaves came to a stop, he closed his eyes, crossed his legs, and started mediation.

“Phew, phew~”

Leng Wushang breathed heavily. It was not comfortable to have Feather Wind attacking his soul. He rubbed his temples and looked toward Lu Li who had started meditation. The latter looked serious, and he must have shut down his senses so he could be in deep cultivation.

“Um…”

Leng Wuxin and Leng Wumi noticed Lu Li’s status as well. They looked at each other in surprise. It was true that there were many marks of Profound Meanings and nature’s laws on the island, but they were not that easily learned. How did Lu Li do that?

Could Lu Li be telling them the truth? He was talented and was only too lazy to cultivate? Could he really reach the Human Sovereign Realm after cultivating seriously for a year?

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.
