Chapter 611: Stay Calm

Chapter 611: Stay Calm

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Lu Li had killed a Fire Leopard King. Of the six Human Sovereign Realm warriors, all, except for God of Meng, were impressed. They were relieved, as well. They could focus on the other Fire Leopard King with undivided attention.

It was unnecessary for the Noble Lord Realm warriors to go back to the Deserted World now. Lu Ling had someone put away the dead Fire Leopard King into an Interspatial Ring. She had Tu Hong and other warriors’ bodies put away as well so they could be properly buried back at the Drifting Cloud City.

Lu Li was not comfortable being stared at like he was a freak. Now that things were under control, he went back to base camp with Little White and Ming Yu.

Little White resumed refining its body at the Ding of Barbarian God. Ming Yu and Lu Li went to their tents respectively to cultivate.

Ming Yu needed to improve his understanding of Space Sealing Profound Meaning and Lu Li was in dire need to learn a new Profound Meaning. Therefore, they had asked Lu Ling to take care of things.

Ke Mang and Ke Lv felt mortified. It didn’t occur to them that the Fire Leopard King could go past the formation underground. If it weren’t for Lu Li and Ming Yu, more than half of the Noble Lord Realm warriors would perish.

Ke Mang and Ke Lv set off to rebuild the formation with Shadowland Race patriarchs. This time, they extended the formation underground. Meanwhile, they planned to build another formation in the valley so there could be two lines of defense. Even if something were to go wrong, they would have time to get back to the Deserted World.

Ye Cha felt mortified, too. That being said, being injured, he couldn’t do anything even if he wanted to. He sent Ye Hu to inspect while he stayed in the base camp to tend to his injuries.

There was another ancient race from the Deserted World called the Shennong Race [1]. They were known for their art of healing and they could bring wonders. While their skills were not as marvelous as Die Feiyu’s Bloodline Skill, the Shennong Race’s art of healing was outstanding.

Ye Cha healed quickly after the patriarch of the Shennong Race treated him but he was not in a rush to go out again. He began to cultivate as he had realized that his realm was still low. If he could reach the peak of the Noble Lord Realm, he could still be faster.

The fight was still going on and it would not end anytime soon. This Fire Leopard King was stronger than the dead one. The six Human Sovereign Realm warriors were cooperating very well but it would still take them some time.

The Noble Lord Realm warriors stayed at the mouth of the valley to observe the fight. They were discussing heatedly and exclaiming the wonders of Lu Li. Lu Ling had to oversee the situation so she could not go back to the base camp. She sat with her legs crossed at the mouth of the valley.

…

“Boom!”

Two hours later, the Fire Leopard King was smashed away. It was halved at its waist by Hu Lang and died.

“Hooray!”

People cheered in the valley. With the two Fire Leopard Kings killed, the territory with a large radius could be conquered. There were more Mystical Materials than they could count waiting for them to collect.

“Move!”

Lu Ling waved. The more than 1000 Noble Lord Realm warriors swarmed out, wiping out the Fire Leopards that had come with their kings.

The six Human Sovereign Realm warriors came back. Hu Lang held the Fire Leopard King’s body in his hand. They were all exhausted, spiritually and physically. God of Meng was injured again. He went to the Shennong Race to be treated.

“Ye Hu, go out and have a look. Pick the Mystical Materials that are easier to collect.”

Lu Ling sent out all the Noble Lord Realm warriors of the Cyan Phoenix Race. The Fire Leopard King was killed and the remaining Fire Leopards wouldn’t pose any threat. It was time for harvest.

The Cyan Phoenix Race boasted eight Noble Lord Realm warriors and all of them except for Ye Cha moved out. Lu Li had complete trust in the Cyan Phoenix Race and so did Lu Ling.

After two days of work, the formation in the valley was completed by Ke Mang. When the Noble Lord Realm warriors were engaged in battles against the Fire Leopards, Ke Mang and his patriarchs immediately began to construct ancient formations again. If there were ancient formations at the mouth of the valley, they could help stop Beast Kings should more of them come.

The situation was stabilized on the death of the two Fire Leopard Kings. After half a month, the local population of Fire Leopards dropped markedly. There were only less than 10,000 of them left.

Ye Hu began to send back batches of Mystical Materials. They were piled up. Lu Ling sent Noble Lord Realm warriors away to collect Mystical Materials as well. They teamed up in dozens and they could kill the surviving Fire Leopards easily in this way.

Apart from God of Meng, the other Human Sovereign Realm warriors went to lead the teams to make sure that they were safe. The number of Noble Lord Realm warriors were limited. Lu Ling would not allow any one of them to die pointlessly.

During this time, five more learned Profound Meanings, a fact that brought delight to everyone. They were over the moon and could hardly constrain themselves.

More Mystical Materials were delivered back. Many were not recognized and the warriors didn’t know the effects. But they did know that those Mystical Materials were rare and valuable. They could use the Mystical Materials themselves or sell them.

There was a huge supply of Mystical Materials and it was a place where Profound Meanings could be learned more easily.

Many Noble Lord Realm regarded this place as a trail toward heaven. They would rather stay here for dozens of years. By then, many would be able to reach the Human Sovereign Realm.

Hundreds of Human Sovereign Realm warriors and possibly some Earth Immortal Realm warriors would be able to put up a fight with one of the 12 Royal Families of the Central Plains. The latter might even be defeated.

Lu Ling was utterly busy. Not only did she have to manage the Inferno, she had to consider the Northern Desert and the Clouds Plains. But the information sent over from the Serenity Plains brought comfort to her. The two forces at south Serenity Plains weren’t bought off by the Samsara Place. Armies from the Serenity Plains wouldn’t reach the Clouds Plains just yet.

Lu Li was in closed-door cultivation and so was Ming Yu. The talented disciples came back and worked hard in cultivation. Lu Ling had promised them unlimited supplies of Mystical Materials as long as they could make breakthroughs constantly.

Many Mystical Materials were sent over to the Clouds Plains secretly and Tu Ni had them sold to the Central Plains off the books. He also bought the ones needed.

It was impossible for the Samsara Palace to seal off the Clouds Plains completely. The major families would be willing to take risks as long as there were profits involved. What was more, the Central Plains wasn’t controlled by the Samsara Palace. Clouds Plains could trade with the Tumulus of Universe and other major forces which feared not the Samsara Palace.

Everything was going well. The only disappointing thing was that she had sent many to the Central Plains to the Mystic Armor Region to ask about Lu Renhuang but no news came.

There was nothing about Lu Renhuang after he came out from the Ice Abyss. He didn’t go back to the Mystic Armor Region nor other cities. He seemed to have vanished.

Lu Renhuang must have important matters to attend to when he didn’t come to meet his own son and daughter.

What Lu Ling as afraid of was that Lu Renhuang might go and slaughter his enemies at the Central Plains. Back at the Northern Desert, Lu Renhuang was ambushed, which led to his wife being injured and going into labor prematurely. Lu Renhuang then took his wife to the Ice Abyss. Against all his efforts, however, his wife passed away.

Anyone that dared to make an enemy against Lu Renhuang must come from the 12 Royal Families. No regular family would have the guts to ambush the future Family Patriarch of the Lu Family.

But the 12 Royal Families all had Earth Immortal Warriors while Lu Renhuang was alone…

“Father, stay calm!”

Lu Ling sighed to herself. With the Inferno, she had in her hand a land of treasure. Given time, she could see the emergence of many Human Sovereign Realms and hope that some of them would reach the Earth Immortal Realm. It was not impossible for them to defeat a Royal Family.

Lu Ling herself was of fire phoenix birth and she could cultivate very quickly. Lu Li had been progressing faster than she thought. The only thing she needed right now was time.
