Chapter 989: Were You Looking for Ling-er?

One month was enough to stabilize the Paleo-beast Realm. Since the Haechi and Heaven’s Birds could both teleport across space, the transportation of beasts was convenient.

Still, a small number of species in the Paleo-beast Realm were unwilling to surrender. Those were the ones that were either wiped out or forced to surrender when the army was bearing down on them.

Master of Fairy Fox established an empire per Lu Li’s request. She took up the post of the queen. The two strongest Beast Gods of the Haechi and Fairy Fox species were appointed as the two-state councilors.

Then there were 10 generals who were the Beast Gods of the major species including the Fairy Fox, Haechi, Blood Ape and Spiritual Qiongqi. Usually, the two-state councilors would make decisions, and the 10 generals would assist them.

Among the 10 generals, half were Beast Gods of the Fairy Fox and Haechi species. Those and the two-state councilors made sure that the Fairy Fox and Haechi species had the absolute say in the Paleo-beast Realm. In this way, even after Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi left, the Paleo-beast Realm would remain in peace.

Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi were both ruthless characters. Half of the species that could pose a potential threat to their species were killed. For the other half, the powerful ones of the Fairy Fox and Haechi species could manage. Master of Fairy Fox even drugged some to protect the status of their two species.

Many Mystical Materials and treasures were collected. Patriarch of Law Enforcement used dozens of Interspatial Rings to put them away. Lu Li had already chosen the species that he would take back to the Heaven Reverse Universe.

Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi would go with him for sure because they were two capable helpers. Each of them took one Beast God. Master of Bond species would go as well because she had the best scouts. Lu Li also brought several other species who were deemed to be useful.

All in all, there were forty to fifty beasts going with Lu Li. Some of them could not take the shape of humans. They were gathered outside the palace which was taken apart by Lu Li or else some of the larger beasts could not go inside.

“Time to go!”

Lu Li threw a look toward the Path of Rising Dragons. He was thinking of the huge, golden, headless body of the immortal.

Over the past month, he had pondered about it often. However, he decided not to take the risk. This was an unequal contest. Lu Li was not sure if he could take control of the immortal’s body.

“Let’s go!”

Lu Li took the lead and stepped into a huge portal. After a flash, he found himself in the blue waters of the ocean. He could sense the presence of some powerful Beasts of Primordial Chaos in the distance.

“Swish, swish~”

The water was surging. A fish with stingers was swimming over. Lu Li used some Feather Wind weapons and killed the fish.

For the old Lu Li, Beasts of Primordial Chaos could be dangerous. After all, he was only at the Noble Lord Realm back then. Encountering those Beasts of Primordial Chaos would secure his demise. If it were not for Leng Wuxin, he would never make it to the Prison of Gold.

However, his abilities had witnessed a remarkable increase. He might be at the Earth Immortal Realm, but his comprehensive abilities had reached the Semi-God Realm. Naturally, the Beasts of Primordial Chaos in the Prison of Water posed no threat to him.

The fish with stingers was killed. Its blood tainted a large area. Smelling its body, many Beasts of Primordial Chaos swarmed over. This big crowd extended beyond the horizon.

“Buzzing!”

Underneath Lu Li, the portal was glowing. Patriarch of Law Enforcement, Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi had come. Before Lu Li gave the instructions, Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi had taken the initiative and dashed out to fight the incoming Beasts of Primordial Chaos

Dealing with Beasts of Primordial Chaos was nothing difficult for two Semi-God Realm warriors.

But… Lu Li did find something peculiar. Warriors of and above the Earth Immortal Realm could not go to the levels under the Prison of Gold. If so, how come Master of Haechi and Master of Fairy Fox were fine here?

“The Paleo-beast Realm is connected to the Prison of Water? Is that why the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos allows them to go to the lower four levels?”

Lu Li wondered. The Purgatory of Primordial Chaos was even more confounding now. He suspected that a super warrior had built this Purgatory of Primordial Chaos, and he had made the rules here. Why else would there be such strange rules?

“Buzzing!”

The glow kept shining. The paleo-beasts were teleported out, and the powerful ones joined in the purge of the Beasts of Primordial Chaos.

Ke Mang was the last one to come. He also sealed off the portal. He nodded to Lu Li who put him into the Wicked Bead. “Let’s go!” Lu Li said, waving his hand.

Master of Haechi cleared the way with three Beast Gods at his heels. Master of Fairy Fox stayed at the back to cover the team. Lu Li and Patriarch of Law Enforcement were in the middle. The paleo-beasts and Lu Li rushed toward the entrance on the towering mountain to get to the next level.

Those that were chosen to come with Lu Li were powerful. Only the Bond Beast God was weaker and slower…

Lu Li told her to take the shape of a human and enter the Wicked Bead. The other beasts were flying. They were neither too fast nor too slow. Lu Li believed they would arrive at the entrance in five or six days.

“Great-grandpa, please take the Wicked Bead with you. I want to go in and cultivate!”

Traveling like this was boring. Lu Li thought he might just as well cultivate in the Wicked Bead. His trip back would take over half a month.

There was practically no risk on the way. The Prison of Water was tainted red with blood because of Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi’s slaughter. They had lost counts of the number of Beasts of Primordial Chaos they murdered in the past several days.

At the entrance on the towering mountain, Lu Li came out. He asked Master of Fairy Fox and the other paleo-beasts to go in first. What delighted Lu Li was that Master of Fairy Fox descended to the Prison of Earth easily. The lower four levels of the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos had no restrictions on paleo-beasts.

Lu Li did not have to worry about the rest of the journey. He asked Patriarch of Law Enforcement to take care of everything while he cultivated in the Wicked Bead.

He was studying the fifth line diagram. For the time being, he had given up on studying the Slayer’s move because he gained nothing even after studying it for a long period of time.

He was on the fourth component of the fifth diagram and his progress was fast. If everything went well, by the time they arrived at the Inferno, he could learn two more components.

Naturally, nothing would happen in the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos. Patriarch of Law Enforcement and the paleo-beasts finally arrived at the Inferno after twenty days.

Lu Li came out with Ke Mang who deactivated the seal. Two patriarchs of the Shadowland Race and some of the Titan Race and Mammoth Race were there. They were scared after seeing lots of strong beasts but were overjoyed to see Lu Li among the beasts.

Lu Li and Patriarch of Law Enforcement were gone for nearly three years. This was not a long time and was just enough time for the aged to cultivate once.

That being said, Lu Li and Patriarch of Law Enforcement were different. They were the backbone of the human race, the world for many.

Since their trip to the Paleo-beast Realm was known by little, many did not know what had happened. For nearly three years, the two never showed up. Not only the Great Land was in turmoil, but there were also rumors spreading at the Demon-slaying Hall.

The safe return of the two would let any rumor collapse without being refuted and any disorder would quiet down. The families that started those rumors would be punished.

Lu Li was burning with anxiety. He flew in the Wicked Bead to the base camp at the Inferno by himself while Patriarch of Law Enforcement led the beasts forward.

Before he arrived at the base camp, Ming Yu, Lu Feixue and Bai Xiashuang were already there. He dashed out. Bai Xiashuang, who still looked like a young girl, threw herself into his arms, crying her heart out.

After Bai Xiashuang was comforted, Lu Li asked Ming Yu, “Is everything okay in the family?”

“Everything is fine!”

Ming Yu smiled. “It’s just everyone is a bit down since you are away. Now that you are back, everything will work out.”

Lu Feixue’s eyes reddened. She did not know what Lu Li was doing while he was away. She asked, “Lu Li, where have you been? How come you are gone for so long? Were you looking for Ling-er? Have you found her?”

“Ling-er?”

Lu Li’s smile froze. He had forced himself not to think of Lu Ling. Now that Lu Fiexue mentioned her, he was depressed again.

He sighed. Looking into the sky, he murmured to himself, “Sister, are you okay? I have reached the Earth Immortal Realm. Wait for me. I will go and look for you… in the Divinity.”
