The Invincible Dragon Emperor-Chapter 1255 - Influential

“Let’s go!”

Lou Shi’er patted Lu Li’s shoulder and whispered to him, “It takes all sorts to make a world. Brother Lu, do not mind him. With us around, nobody can hurt you.”

Lu Li nodded in gratitude. What Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess did just now left a good impression on Lu Li. He said after some thoughts, “Don’t be frustrated. I have some confidence that we can get past this level. But I need time.”

Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess looked at each other. Glow returned to their eyes at once. Holy Princess, in particular, was beautiful than ever.

Lou Shi’er could not help but ask, “Brother Lu, how confident are you? The formations of illusion here are very advanced.”

It was not that Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess did not trust Lu Li. It was just that they already had some understanding of Inhibition Formations. Before they came here, patriarchs in their sects introduce the Tomb of King Luna to them and told them some secrets of getting past each level. They were given some items to assist them as well. Even so, Holy Princess and Lou Shi’er had no idea how to pass this level.

Lu Li seemed younger than the two of them. Even if he was older than them, he would not be advanced in age. Knowledge on Inhibition Formations was extensive and profound. It was already a hard thing for Lu Li to become an immortal. How could he, within decades, achieve a deep understanding of Inhibition Formations? It could not happen unless some experts on Inhibition Formations in the Divinity were teaching him.

Lu Li smiled. His calmness had boosted the confidence of Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess. “I am fifty percent sure. Of course, it will take me a year or two.”

“Alright!”

Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess looked at each other. Both felt relieved. If Lu Li said fifty percent, then at least, in reality, he should be seventy percent sure.

When they passed this level, at least, they could be teleported out of the Tomb of King Luna.

They had heard from their predecessors that after the third level of illusions, there would be a portal directly connected outside. Of course, they could keep on exploring if they wanted to. There were another seven or eight levels and every two levels, there would be a portal sending them outside.

That being said…

The more advanced the level, the more dangerous it would be. The treasures would be more valuable as well. The ones that could survive the final level could have the entire Tomb of King Luna and all the treasures would be his or hers.

Holy Princess and Lou Shi’er had lost the desire for obtaining treasures of the Tomb of King Luna. They had lost thirty percent of their disciples and had no idea if they could find the ones that got lost in this level.

The two of them were on the verge of having a nervous breakdown after being trapped for a year. For the Tomb of King Luna, they were scared. They just wanted to leave as soon as possible and return to their home sects…

The search went on and the illusion was being removed bit by bit. They had been traveling for 13 days, and Lu Li had no idea how far they had come.

What saddened Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess was that they met many disciples from their sects, but almost all of them were dead. Two had lost their minds. Five were lucky enough to be alive, and two of the five were from the Cabinet of Cloud.

“Brother Lu, let’s go on for another five days and call it.”

Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess counted and realized together, they were missing four to five disciples. By the time they were found, they would probably be dead already. There was no need to waste more time.

“Sure!”

Lu Li nodded. He was losing his patience after searching for such a long time. Were it not for Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess, he would have stopped a long time ago.

He could afford to go on for another five days. Leading the team, Lu Li continued on the journey of searching. Five days went by in the blink of an eye. The result turned out to be disappointing. They found four more people and all had stopped breathing.

The ones that could enter the Tomb of King Luna were the young disciples of each respective sect. Being young, their mental state would be unstable. They had not accumulated enough experience to forge a strong will. It would be difficult for them to power through such a horrifying formation of illusion…

“Stop now!”

Lou Shi’er patted Lu Li’s shoulder. “Brother Lu, thank you so much for this. We don’t have to go on. Try and focus on how to solve the formations. You can ask us if you need anything. We will spare no effort.”

“I do have something I want to ask!”

Lu Li had one request. “Do you have any special materials? If this spirit being of mine can evolve, we will solve the formations in a more efficient way.”

“Special materials?”

Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess paused for only a second. They took out countless materials from their rings and piled them on the ground.

Holy Princess said generously, “Young Master Lu, take whatever you need. Well… you can take all of them.”

Lou Shi’er was just as generous. “Take them all. I will give all of them to you as a gift. Don’t worry if they are of use or not.”

“There is no such need!”

Lu Li then told Blood Fairy to have her tentacles reach out from Lu Li’s foot and into the two piles of materials.

“Master, this is helpful to me!”

A moment later, Lu Li heard Blood Fairy’s voice of joy on his mind. He was cheered up. He used psychic power to check the pile of materials in front of Lou Shi’er and noticed a dark blue crystal the size of a human bead.

“Are you sure that this is useful? Anything else?” Lu Li asked at once.

“This one!”

Blood Fairy replied with certainty, “I feel that if I consume the energy in this crystal, I will be strengthened. Master, please get it for me!”

“Alright!”

Lu Li was pleased. He walked over and took out the dark blue crystal. “Guys put the other materials away. This is the only thing that works. Young Master Lou, what is it?”

“Crystal of Icy Soul!”

Lou Shi’er said, frowning, “This kind of stone is mainly used for enhancing formations. It is rare but compared with the other materials, it is nothing. Why is your spirit being interested in the Crystal of Icy Soul?”

Of this question, Lu Li did not have an answer. He did not care if the Crystal of Icy Soul was valuable or not. Anything that could help Bloodvine evolve would be a treasure to him. Looking at Lou Shi’er with anticipation, Lu Li asked, “Young Master Lou, can you give me this Crystal of Icy Soul?”

“Of course!”

Lou Shi’er waved his hand. “We are inside the Tomb of King Luna. If we were outside, I could get you a few more.”

“Thank you, Young Master Lou!”

Lu Li clasped his hands in gratitude and said to Holy Princess, “Please stay here with your fellow disciples. I will have to cultivate for some time, maybe half a year or a year, or up to three or five years. But I will solve the formation. I cannot make any promises, but I will do my best.”

Holy Princess and Lou Shi’er nodded. Sitting here would at least be different from before when they could see nothing but a blur. That would drive them crazy easily. Besides, Lu Li’s words had given them hope. Sitting here in cultivation for a few years would not be miserable.

Lu Li nodded to them and dashed into the Wicked Bead. Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess looked at each other in astonishment. The other disciples were taken aback as well. Some were staring at the Wicked Bead with desire.

Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess had an interspatial container as well and so did three other people. However… they could not use such containers inside the formation of illusion and thereby could not enter the world within.

Lu Li just took out a bead, and he vanished into it? Naturally, Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess would be amazed.

“Is it a holy-grade artifact? Or the best of supreme Relics?”

Lou Shi’er mumbled. He couldn’t help but exclaim, “Holy Princess, this Lu Lin has so many secrets. Do you think… he comes with strong connections?”
