As a matter of fact, Lu Li did not really know what the line diagram stood for!
But if the Crippled Zen Master and Yin Qingsi were here, his questions could be answered.
The line diagram was essentially a form of Foundational Principle, something that transcended Profound Meanings. The learning of Foundational Principle opened a new door and built a promising way ahead.
Of course…
Lu Li learning the Foundational Principle easily was not proof that his talent was extraordinary, but that he was blessed.
Emperor Heng helped him greatly in picking up the Foundational Principle. Lu Li had stumbled upon the line diagram from the Feather Wind in the Forbidden Ground of the Elder God. Essentially, that was Emperor Heng’s legacy.
Lu Li had benefited from Emperor Heng’s legacy. As for the reason for Emperor Heng to choose Lu Li to pass his knowledge onto, not even the Crippled Zen Master had the answer.
…
“What was that?”
Dozens of miles away from Lu Li, a team of Asmodians was marching on. Lu Li’s laughter had startled them.
This was a team of Asmodian scouts. The Asmodian Lord had ordered an extensive search for Lu Li. The Eastern Land of Oceans was laden with scouts. It was not surprising that over at the mountains a team of scouts was marching on. Lu Li actually ran into some a few days ago. But he kept away from them.
“Let’s go and have a look!”
The leader of this team was at the Noble Lord Realm. He waved his hand and the team vanished into thin air. They stole their way quietly toward Lu Li.
“A human! It is the human emperor Lu Li!”
Soon, those scouts found Lu Li. The latter did not conceal his presence. It was not hard for the scouts to see him.
“Back off~”
Lu Li was sitting at the peak of the mountain. Still, the team leader did not take bold actions. That was the human emperor, someone that could defeat the Asmodian Lord. The team leader knew that them making advances at Lu Li would lead to nowhere apart from their own deaths.
The leader led his team away dozens of miles. Afterwards, he crushed a jade talisman to alert the powerful warriors nearby that they had already spotted Lu Li.
As the information was sent out, the Asmodians around this area were alarmed. When a nearby chief learned that Lu Li was cultivating on the top of a mountain, the chief mobilized half of his most powerful warriors and came as fast as he could. He also sent a message to the Asmodian Lord at the same time.
Zuo Tengying, the chief, arrived after several rounds of teleportation. He was most loyal to the Asmodian Lord. Even if he was not, he would not hesitate to take actions against the human emperor. Humans were Asmodians mortal enemies and their enemies must be killed on sight.
Zuo Tengying did not bring too many warriors, only about a hundred. One was at the Earth Immortal Realm and the rest were all at the Human Sovereign Realm. Five teams were made up of elite ninjas with the best assassination skills in the world.
Zuo Tengying learned from the message sent by the scout team that Lu Li was cultivating. This was a rare chance that Zuo Tengying could not let go. If he could kill Lu Li, he would become the hero of the Asmodians, and he would be crowned with eternal glory.
“Let’s go. Please kill him instantly. Thank you!”
At the foot of the mountain, Zuo Tengying waved his hand. He did not take actions personally. After all, he was faced with the human emperor. If those one hundred Asmodians could not take Lu Li’s life, then the addition of Zuo Tengying would not make much of a difference.
The one hundred Asmodians sneaked into the cracks in space and moved toward Lu Li. Upon arrival, they spread out and was about to launch a raid from different sides.
Zuo Tengying sneaked over as well. But he kept a distance of six miles. He did on the top of another mountain, monitoring the situation remotely.
“Yes!”
He found that Lu Li was still cultivating. His teams were moving closer to Lu Li from around him. Zuo Tengying’s spirit was lifted.
It seemed to him that Lu Li was trying to reach a certain realm because his energy showed no signs of movement. He appeared to be ignorant of the Asmodians. If one hundred Asmodians could reach Lu Li without him knowing and launch a coordinated attack, it was most certainly that they could kill Lu Liu unless he had Relic armors.
The Asmodians shortened their distance to Lu Li to two miles, and then one mile, and then one thousand feet!
Lu Li displayed no reaction. Zuo Tengying’s face was twisted in excitement. The famous historic moment was upon him and he was the writer of history. No wonder he would be excited.
Only five hundred feet!
The Earth Immortal Realm Asmodian sneaked out from a crack and yelled at the same time, “Charge–”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”
Space was cracking as one Asmodian after another broke out. Over one hundred black daggers thrown out all at once. That energy seemed to have frozen time and space!
Yes, it was not an illusion. Time was really frozen.
Lu Li opened his eyes which were saying contempt. His Bead of Life was glistening in his abdomen. Space around him was frozen instantly. A cyan-colored castle emerged, and it enveloped every Asmodian nearby.
“What…”
Zuo Tengying suddenly had a bad feeling. He looked at the cyan-colored castle in the distance carefully, utterly shocked.
Wasn’t Lu Li’s Feather Wind castle half transparent?
How come it had changed so drastically now? How could it look exactly like a real castle? He felt that a castle had appeared out of nowhere above the top of the mountain, floating in the air.
Zuo Tengying tried to check the situation inside the castle with psychic power but he was stunned to find that: his psychic power reached through the walls, but the inside was quiet. It was soundless, it was like the more than one hundred Asmodians were all swallowed by something before they could cry out in misery.
“Should I run away or not?”
Zuo Tengying was asking himself. He was not far enough away from Lu Li. Once Lu Li noticed him, he would have no further chance to escape. However, he still had a glimpse of hope in his heart that Lu Li could not kill all of his warriors. After all, five teams among them were the best of the best.
“Buzzing~”
After the time for more than 10 breaths, the Feather Wind gave out a cyan glow. The castle disappeared into the air. Zuo Tengying was stunned–
One Asmodian after another was falling to the ground. Their heads were all scratched into pieces. The Asmodians were dropping, like headless insects. None had a whiff of life in them. Their blood tainted the sky, glistening in a bright red color under the glow of the sunlight…
It was the time for more than a dozen breaths but over one hundred were killed!
How incredibly fast that was! Those warriors were the best in Zuo Tengying’s troop. There were one Earth Immortal Realm Asmodian and five teams of elites and yet all had perished in the time for a dozen breaths.
Fast!
A fast move that no one could withstand!
Zuo Tengying could not come up with another way to explain the destruction of his team. At that moment, none of the Asmodians were able to fight back. Lu Li crushed their heads one by one easily. It was like a strong man with a saber was chasing after chained-up lambs.
“That is too strong, too much. I need to run–”
Zuo Tengying did not hesitate any more. He sneaked into a crack in space and tried to run away.
However, something flew to him quickly and caught up with him in an instant. Lu Li stepped out of the Wicked Bead. A Feather Wind castle appeared in the air. Zuo Tengying was forced out of space.”
“I am doomed. It is over. Ah… it hurts!”
At this moment, Zuo Tengying finally understood why his warriors were killed so quickly that nobody was able to escape.
Inside the Feather Wind castle, space was frozen. Additionally, the strong soul attack made him feel like millions of golden needles were nibbling at his soul. Zuo Tengying could not even control his own body, let alone run away or fight back.
“Swish~”
The wall next to Zuo Tengying was crushed. A silver claw was approaching. Following that, he saw a pair of cold eyes. In the end, his head was crashed open like a watermelon by the claw.
